LOCAL 18-B of the Furniture

in the fight against Taft Hartley.
Not long ago it won a mo" vote
election at the Great Northern
Chair Company, 70 to 10. (The
majority of the workers voted
against representation by the
opposition union on the ballot
the Furniture Workers were not
on the ballot, since they had not
registered under T-H). Nothing
unusual alb at that.
But what makes history is
word that the Furniture Work
ers have now signed a new and
better contract with Great Nor
thern. First time a union in Chi

Rev. Davies Upholds
'FCC Atheist RuIinq;
.Censures Opponents

Churchmen who would deny
atheists the right to express their
views on the radio are contradicting
the principles Of American govern
ment, the Rev. A. Powell Davies,
pastor of All Souls Unitarian
Church, declared yesterday.
Referring to a 1916 Federal Com
munications Commission decision in
the so-called Scott case stating
freedom OF religious belief neces-
sarily carries with it freedom to dis
believe and freedom Of speech means
freedom to express disbeliefs as well
as beliefs" DR.. Davies assailed a
Congressional Committee report is
sued Saturday terming the decision
dangerous and mischievous.
Unfortunately, the hierarchy Of
some of our churches seem very un-
sure of themselves" DR.. Davies said.
They are afraid. apparently, that
the atheists might get the better OF
the argument"
Hits Leaders Opposition.
Turning to the opposition Of
buIIlc CilulSl w t1AG FASW uidV
freedom of religious belief carries
with 1t the right to disbelief, DR..
Davies charged this principle was
not obvious ito some churches, or,
at any rate, to their leaders"
So far as these churches oppose
this principle they "are opposed to
the principles Of American gov
ernment," he declared. They would
change the principles of American
government, and therefore the
American way of life, is they could,
and this is a fact to be carefully
noted, not only by atheists but by
believers as we'll"
DR.. Davies pointed out that the
FEC decision said freedom Of speech
lacks meaning if the channels Of
public expression are open to some
and denied to others.
Says FEC Is Right.
This means, in the case of broad
casting, If we are to be faithful to
American principles, that even opin-
ions we abhor must be given proper
tionate opportunity on the radio.
