The origin is the Latin plagiarius,

Answer: Literally, aftermath Is
the second moving of grass or hay
from land in the same season. Math
is from the Anglo-Saxon maeth, "a
moving" The word is very old. In
his diaries, Washington wrote: THE
aftermath is more valuable, and the
second growth quicker" In modern
usage, aftermath means results,

war, or of catastrophe. The word
is seldom If ever used to designate

House Puts Military
Needs Before Schools

Washington (LPA)-The feder-
al aid to education bill, held up by
the COP leadership in the House
Labor Committee, may yet be voted
on in this session of Congress. II
has already passed the Senate.
House Speaker Joseph w. Mar
tin (R., Mass.) told reporters that
there is more public interest in the
funds-for- schools bill than in any
other measure now before the Con-
gress. But, he added, the House
leadership plans to place bills ap-
propriating military funds ahead OF
the education proposal.
A House Labor Subcommittee
headed by Rep. Edward o. Nc
Cowen (R., Ohio) reported the bill
favorably to the full committee
last summer, but Chairman Fred
Hartley = who pushed thru anti
labor legislation with lightning
rapidity last spring-has still no
plan to bring it before the full COM
mittee.

Wide Participation
In ERP Work Urged

New York City (ILNS)-Widest
public participation i'm the carrying
out of the European Recovery Pro
gram was urged upon President
Truman in statement prepared
by the Committee for the Marshall
Plan to Aid European Recovery
SGT Fifth Avenue.
Forwarded to the White House
with covering letter signed by Rich
ard p. Patterson, chairman of the
executive committee, the statement
said:
"The European Recovery Pro
gram is a peoples program, not
merely a political device. The Con-
gress has wisely provided room for
this participation in the admins
dition of the program 1t goes with
out saying that the American peo-
pie as a whole will provide out of
their comparative abundance the
material things necessary to carry
out the program. But the needs OF
participation are more than mater
ial; they are spiritual in the sense
that the administration in every
sense must be such as to inspire
confidence in the peoples of the
participating nations"
The statement specifically ask
ed a broadly representative advis-
ory council to assist the admins

While Southern politicos keep on
raising the devil with Harry Tru-
man because of their unhappiness
over his human rights demands, a
couple of interesting things have
happened.
In one central Florida city a jury
on which there was one Negro pick
ed the Negro to be foreman. No
body seemed to be unhappy about
it and no newspapers, so far as
| know, got explosive over it.
In Miami Negro presided over
a conference of white men and
women and did it with dignity and
intelligence. In the conference were
representatives of local govern
ment bodies and of private welfare
organizations.
Were it not for optical evidence,
nobody would have known color
was involved.
Here is no pattern for solving
race relations troubles, but in these
items there is something of hope

LEWIS CALLS MEETING
TO NEGOTIATE SCALE
Washington UPA) - John l..

Washington (LPA) - John L..
Lewis, president of the United
Mine Workers, last week invited
the coal owners to meet with him
on May Is to negotiate new con-
tract for the bituminous industry.
The 1947 contract, under which
the pension fund dispute has ragged,
terminates on June 30.
The UMW's letter to the opera
tors was dated April 30, thereby
satisfying the Taft Hartley laws
requirement that notice of termi-
nation of agreement be given the
other party to a contract 60 days
in advance.
Lewis reminded the coal owners
that the present contract obliges
them to participate in any confer
ences called under its terms. His
purpose, he said, is the "negotiat-
ing of a successor contract"
Meanwhile, the machinery was
set in motion to start paying $500
a month pensions to retired miners
from the 1947 fund. Over the dis
sent of Ezra Van Horn, the opera
tors representative on the funds
board of trustees, Miss Josephine
Roche, president of the Rocky
Mountain Fuel Co., was named di-
rector of the fund.
Miss Roche has long been rec
ognized as the leader of that frac-
tion of coal ownership which be-
lieves in fair dealing with the
union, and is therefore objection
able" to Van Horn.
Van Horn, who had previously
entered a suit in federal courts to
block the payment of pensions un-
der the Bridges plan, last
week warned the banks holding the
funds: $34, 100000 not to honor any
checks drawn against it.
The suit, which Van Horn filed
two weeks ago, asks that Lewis

NLRB Hos It's
Own Problem

Washington UPA)-The NLRB,
the labor relations policing agency,
sometimes praised, but-since the
passage Of the Taft Hartley law
more often damned by the labor
movement, is having its headaches
these days. One Of the boards best
members is having reappointment
trouble. The % trial examiners are
about to be examined themselves.
And that backlog Of cases keeps
going up and up.
John NJ. Houston, former New
Deal Congressman, and one of the
most fair minded of the five board
members, is up for reappointment,
with Republican Congressman wor-
rying about whether or not he's
"too pro-labor." The COP solons
are reported TO be awaiting Sen.
Robert Taft's return from the Ohio
primary fight before deciding
whether or not TO confirm Houston
for the five year term, as per
President Truman's recommenda-
ton.
The trial examiners are about
to face six-man Civil Service
Commission Board of Examiners,
which will consider employer and
union complaints against the NLRB
officials in the course of deciding
whether or not they are profes-
sionally qualified for their jobs.
Chairman Paul Herzog has made
another speech stating that good
industrial relations require that en-
ployers and workers settle their
own disputes and reduce the num-
Der Of cases coming before the
board.
And even the chief practicing
Taft Hartleyite, General Counsel
Robert Denham, has admitted that
the 1947 law went too far. He has
about conceded that the union shop
authorization polls are unnecessary
they all come out in the
unions favor.
He said that "in only a handful
of cases, less than so out Of 5000
did the union shop auth
orization fail to carry. We have no
reason to believe that these per-
The potters herald. [volume] (East Liverpool, Ohio) 1899-1982, 1948-05-06

Southern governors are hot and
bothered, of course. One reason is
that the control of state delega-
tions to national political conven-
tions is involved.
In Florida the situation offers
Pepper-haters a fresh angle in their
war to squelch the senior Florida
senator. They see it as time to
make political hay.
The battle cry of states rights
echoes through the South. Wheth-
er you are for states rights de-
pends upon what you want and
from what source you want it.
In some ways there is bit of
hollow sound to the cry of states
rights in an era that has given
us the atomic bomb and supersonic
airplane speeds.
Not only that, but there is a bit
of hollow sound to a cry for states
rights when it is for the purpose
of denying human rights. Some
states want to live under only
part of the United States consti-
tuition.
Of course, all of this conflict has
a deep-seated background cause
and it will not be wiped out in
hurry. Quite possibly it shouldn't
be.

Greet Plan To Raise
Old Age Benefits,
Increase COverage

Washington (LPA)-Both major
labor federations in the US last
week greeted the report of the Adj
visory Council on Social Security
to the Senate Finance Committee,
and urged Congress to incorporate
the proposals into the Social Secur-
ity Act.
Said AFL President William
Green: Nov Congress has before
it sound recommendations which
have been developed by a represen-
tative group of citizens from all
walks of life, including business
management, agriculture and labor
in addition to the very capable ex-
perts in the field of social security
who served with them. The next
step is for Congress to adopt these
progressive proposals and make
them a part Of our Social Security
system. The people Of the nation
especially those who work for
wages-have waited too long for
Congress to bring our Social Sc
curity program up-to-date in
manner that will afford security
with dignity. The incorporation of
these proposals into our Social Sc
curity program would be an unan-
swerable challenge to those groups
and those nations which contend
that the democracies cannot solve
the problem of economic insecur-
ity."
The potters herald. [volume] (East Liverpool, Ohio) 1899-1982, 1948-05-06

boom and depression-and gives to
the ordinary man in the street
sense Of purpose and of belonging
to this community. None Of these
is beyond the reach Of democratic
craftsmanship.
Such magnificent gestures as the
passing Of ERP show that the
United States can demonstrate a
boldness and capacity for lead
ership not shown by other world
powers in the past. And the ex-
tent to which ERP has aroused
Communist opposition is a measure
Of its deadly effectiveness in de-
feating Communist infiltration.
But Communism is not only a
political and economic system. 1t is
IA faith, a bogus religion. Here
again it can be strong only If
Western society weakens and loses
its own faith. Communism as a
feilglon denies and debaSes man.
The Christian faith of the West
has set him "only a little lower
than the angels" II the Western
world can recover it's own religious
inspiration, it can sweep away the
false faith Of materialism and
state tyranny which is all that Mos
cow can offer to those who seek
a reason for living.
In other words, the Western
world has nothing to fear but its
own weakness, its own hesitations,
its own lack of faith. The new
world will be as brave as those
who build it. The times are not for
discouragement, but for confidence
and vision.

centages will materially change"
To prove that the age of miracles
has not passed, Rep. Fred Hartley
himself, in Chicago, echoed these
sentiments, said the "union shop
elections constitute a waste of
money. Besides" he added, "work-
ers are voting for the union shop
in 80 per cent of the cases"
Then Hartley actually stepped
on Denham's toes by saying that
the NLRB counsel's plan for con-
ducting such elections in the build
ing trades will be almost impos-
sible to administer"
Knowing full well that the pres
ent Congress will not do so, Hart
ley concluded, eve are considering
the requirement"

N. H. be held personally liable for
any money paid out to the miners.
He says that because he didn't vote
for the plan which both Lewis, for
the miners, and Bridges, the neu-
trail trustee, accepted, it cannot be
"activated' under the Taft-Hart-
ley law. The union is expected to
answer Van Horns contentious this
week.

weight on either side. -.
All of which probably is too much
to expect, even if not too much to
hope for.
Perhaps education is the thing
most needed, next to elimination
of passion.
If our country is required to
strain itself to the utmost, it must,
somehow, find a passable road to
internal unity.

FORMER LABOR LEADER DEAD

Cincinnati, o. 1LNS) - Harry

Kentucky legislator, died here
April 20 at the age of 72. Dill was
business agent of the old Pressman
Assistants Union, Local II, for 20
years.

The potters herald. [volume] (East Liverpool, Ohio) 1899-1982, 1948-05-06

Unquestionably lot of South
ern resistance to the Truman pro-
nouncement is due to the fact that
somewhat fierce pride fires in
the South, flaming around the idea
that the South can and will de-
velope its own program for pro-
gress in racial matters. Definite
/ ly, a lot of the Souther doesn't
want the North to have voice in
telling it what to do.
But over all of this there looms
something else quite possibly more
serious.
1t is the threat of civil disobedi-
ence by Negroes-civil disobedi-
ence in the event of new selec-
tive, unless segregation of Negro
troops is ended.
This new threat invites the at
! tention of the South, as well as of
the North.
1t can develope into one of the
most serious crisis the nation has
known.
Should it come, it will be no time
for sectionalism. 1t will be time for
national craftsmanship.
One Negro newspaper uses the
line freedom is our job" between
all stories, in place of dashes. 1t
signifies a growing trend.
Equality of opportunity and of
civil status seems to be the issue
and it is a vital issue with both
Negroes and Southern white peo-
pie. Of course, the professional
shouters on both sides contribute
much to the heat of debate. They
fan the fires constantly. However,
if there was no fire to begin with,
the professionals would have moth
ing to fan.
The United States faces a very
critical issue and there doesn't
seem much chance of wishing it
out of the way. 1t is a most un-
pleasant issue and there doesn't
seem any chance at all of making
it any less unpleasant.
1t is time for thinking without
passion, of evaluating without over

Comment On World Events

Our "Brave New World" is
haunted by two nightmares-war,
atomic war and the spread of
Communism. But there is no rea-
son to suppose that the Western
world has not the means to master
both. Russian expansionism is not
necessarily of the same kind as
NaZi Imperialism. Between the two
world wars, the West was able
to live at peace with Russia,
whereas the Nazi headed for war
from the day Hitler took power.
The Russians have no problem
OF economic living space" They
lack the Germans economic drive
to expansion. Nevertheless, both
systems are relationships and the
danger of relationships is the ad-
venturous element, the risk taking
urge, the temptation offered by the
spectacle Of other peoples weak
ness. Russia may not be seeking
war-as Hitler sought it-but can
be tempted to expand in the belief
it can do so without risk.
In the interests Of peace, there
fore, the Western world must make
two things clear: (1) that it is
strong, and (2) that it will use
its strength Immediately and un-
equivocably, to check further Rus
sian expansion. This policy of "cold
containment" requires cool heads
and steady nerves. 1t also requires
patience. But it can bring equili-
brium and maintain peace.
Western society can also deal
perfectly we'll with the problem
of Communism. Communism in it.
self has little appeal. Men in their
senses do not long for police
state, for forced labor, for the ty-
rany that drove a Jan Masaryk to
his death. Communism is only
strong where Western society fails,
where it does not redeem the pro-
mise inherent in democratic life.
Communism can be defeated de-
cisively if Western society restores
