Produced by johnson and Busk

is powered by a 5 H. P. gas motor
making it the most powerful

the exception of the motor which
is manufactured in England ac-

munism and plan still further
Britain's Socialist advances.
Prime Minister Attlee, Foreign
Secretary Ernest Bevin and at least
half 9, dozen other high officials
will be at this Yorkshire seaside
resort for the partys annual FIVE
day conference.
Mr.. Bevin will speak Thursday,
restatjng British foreign policy with
emphasis on Palestine and Ger
many. But his speech may come
as an anticlimax to Mondays debate
on the "Nennigram."
One Labor member Of Parliament
who signed the telegram which
wished good luck to Pietro Nenni
and his communist -allied Socialists
IN the italian elections, has been
expelled from the party. Twenty
one other Labor MP's who signed
the telegram were reprimanded.
Second most controversial issue,
party spokesman said, will be the
governments purge of Communists
from security posts in the civil
service and the drive against Com
munist infiltration in the trade
unions.

ert Denham's office had decided
what move to make next.
Taft then went off to a commit
tee meeting, leaving the NLRB Of
fcials to the tender mercies of -four
men who have been trying for near
lly a year to drive the ITU out OF
the Chicago newspaper field. They
were: John S. Knight, publisher OF
chain including the Chicago Daily
News; f. M. Antrim, business man
ager of Col. Robert McCormick's
Chicago Tribune; Richard j. Finne-
gan, editor of Marshall Fields
Chicago Sun-Times, and Robert c.
Bassett, attorney for William Ran
dolph Hearst's Chicago Herald
American.
The four tried to convince the
NLRB lawyers that the injunction
against the ITU wasn't sweeping
enough, and that the board should
try to get it expanded.
Thruout the discussions, both be-
fore and after Taft's departure,
Joint Committee Counsel Tom
Shroyer made it clear that his COM
mittee, presided over by Sen.
Joseph Ball (R... Minn.) is also "in-
terested" in the ITU case. Shroyer,
former NLRB attorney himself,
is friend of former NLRB mem
ber Gerard Reilly. Reilly is one of
the principal lawyers for the print
ing industry in its campaign to
break the ITU.
Early in the discussion, Taft re-
vealed that he originally favored
giving employers the right to get
iniunctions themselves against un-
ions under the Taft Hartley law.
However, he said that his "col-
leagues" had persuaded him that
this task should be left up to the
NLRB.
President Truman this week
wrote Finding that when the TIL
law was passed and the new NLRB
General CounsePs office set up, he
had told NLRB officials that he did
not intend to interfere with their
carrying out their duties. But, he
added, "the chief executive expect
ed that they should be immune to
pressure from the legislative
branch of the government"
Just before releasing his CORES
pondence with Finding, Truman
called Finding, Johns and General
Counsel Denham himself to the
White House to discuss the pres
sure campaign of Taft and the pub
fishers. He is believed to have re
iterated his statement that the
board must not be influenced by
Congressional maneuvers.
