Holiday Sought On
Federal Control
OF Steel Pricing

Washington (LPA)-Bills giving
steel companies a holiday from
Federal Trade Commission regula-
ton of their pricing practices have
been introduced into both houses
of Congress.
Sen. Francis J. Myers Cd, Pa
put bill in the Senate last week
providing for a two-year morator-
ium on ETC action against steel
sellers, and a bill by Rep. Francis
f. Walter Cd, Pa.), suggesting a
16-month moratorium was reported
out by the House Judiciary Com
mittee.
Open season for one year would
probably be the form in which any
such measure would pass. ETC of
ficials said that moratorium is
neither necessary nor desirable
claiming that it would only add to
business confusion about what
pricing practices are legal.
United Steelworkers is also OPP
posed to the idea. "When FTC
takes long delayed action in the
antitrust field" Steelworkers
Counsel Tom Harris told LPA, "we
don't think Congress should hop in
and discourage them"

House Democrats
Backs Labor
Extension Bill

Washington (LPA) 1t is "a
great credit to the entire American
labor movement that it is urging
unanimously and officially the
establishment of a Labor Exten-
sion Service in the Labor Dept,
Rep. Augustine Kelley Cd, Pa.)
told the House last week.
"Here is an awareness on the
part of workers and their organ
izations that they need and desire
more facts and instruction so that
labor's increasing influence can be
used wisely and WE'LL" Kelley said.
He introduced into the House a
companion bill to that already ap-
proved by the Senate Labor Com
mittee calling for a Labor Exten-
sion Service.
He added: "The establishment Of
a Labor Extension Service pro-
gram, thru which American wage
and salary earners would receive
services from our uni
versities and colleges thru short
courses and extension classes, is
necessity in a nation dedicated to
democratic processes"

Striking Workers
Shift AffiIiation

New York (LPA)-A strike of
gravediggers at Calvary and Gate
of Heaven cemeteries was still
deadlocked here last week after
the strikers had voted to disaffil-
late from a CIO international and
Joined an AFL union.
Francis Cardinal Spellman, Arch
bishop of New York, had earlier
led a group of seminary students
across the picket line at Calvary
to bury some of the bodies that
had accumulated there during the
eight week strike. Spellman charg-
ed that the striking local was Com
munist-dominated.
More than 100 members of
Local 293, United Cemetery Work
erS disaffiliated from their parent
union, Int'l Food, Tobacco & Agri-
cultural Workers and voted to be-
come Local 365, Building Service
Employes-AFL. This, their officers
say, should prove they have no
pro- Communist sympathies.
The strikers had been working
six-day week for $59.40 and are
demanding a five-day week at the
same pay, with time-and-a-half for
the sixth day.

Rules Against Talk
Inside Union Hall

Washington (LPA)-The Taft
Hartley law has reached into
actions inside union halls for the
first time. An NLRB trial exam
iner held last weak that ten EN-.
ployees had been coerced and illeg-
ally restrained by talk at union
headquarters threatening t h e m
with loss of their jobs if they fail
ed to support their local union.
He also ruled that the same
union also violated the law by
physically forcing four union MEM
bers to come to the union hall in
the first place.
The ruling was against the
Wholesale and Warehouse Workers
Union 1nd), local 65, of New York
City. The case described the hap
penings on Aug. IL, 1948, near the
entrance to the II. McCanlis Co.,
Inc, of New York, which makes
sample cards for the textile indus
try, when Local 65 was attempting
TO persuade its members not to
vote for the JAW in a representa-
ton election scheduled to be held a
few days later. Local 60 was not
eligible for a place on the ballot
since its officers had not signed
the anti-communist affidavit.
In the election employees of both
the McCanlis company and the f.
Foibusch, another New YORK
sample card finn, voted to have
the JAW represent them.

Little TIL Law
Gets The Bird In
Garbage ] Strike.

Yonkers, N. Y. alLPA)-A court
test of New York states Condon-
Wadlin law was avoided this week
by settlement of an eight day
strike of garbage collectors here
in what unions consider a complete
victory.
The 500 strikers, members of
the Int'l Brotherhood of Teamsters-
AFL and United Government
Workers, had been fired after the
Yonkers city government invoked
the law which prohibits strikes by
city or state employees. With the
settlement the city agreed to drop
all injunctive proceedings.
Details of pay demands are yet
to be worked out. All employees are
to return to work without pre-
judice and committee will be ap-
pointed to set up grievance mach
inery. AS a result of the strike,
the Condon- Wadlin law may be
amended to provide grievance pro-
cedure.
This controversy establishes
the stupidity and ineptness of the
Condon- Wadlin law as a vehicle
for handling the problems of civil
service employees" said a AFL
statement issued after the settle
ment. "Not only was the bill de-
signed to forestall the unionization
of public employees, but in its ef-
fort to effectively spike such unions
it suffocated an avenue of express
sion for the normal presentation of
grievances which any body of en-
ployes normally have"
The strike started after Is EN-
ployes refused to do Sunday work
without overtime pay and three
others refused to cross a music
ians picket line to collect garbage.
Twenty-Five AFL unions were sup
porting the strikers.

MARYLAND LEADS 13 STATES In
LEGISLATION TO BAR COMMUNISTS

Annapolis, Md LPA) = Mary
lands House of Delegates is ex-
pected to begin consideration next
week of a bill, already passed by
the State Senate, that will give the
Free State the most sweeping
powers in the United State S
against all manner of subversive
activities.
Maryland is today without any
kind of sedition law, but as one of
13 state legislatures currently con-
sidering some kind of law barring
Communists from public jobs and
other activities, Maryland legisla-
tors are frankly determined to set
up a state 'FBI' and give it the
widest possible police powers to
act.
The bill is being pushed by a
half a dozen lawyers who conduct
ed year-long campaign to awaken
patriotic groups, fraternal organ
izations, and religious organiza-
tions to the danger of Communists
in the state. They said, without re-
vealing the source of their infor-
nation, that there are at least 2700
Communists working in the state.
The Maryland Civil Liberties Union
opposed the bill as originally draft
ed.
The bill is copied in part after
the Mundt- Nixon Bill, which was
introduced and rejected in Con-
gress last year, but Sen. Karl E.
Mundt, (R, SD has admitted that
the Maryland bill goes even beyond
his ideas for suppressing the Com
munists.
The bill was drawn up and rush
ed through the Maryland Senate
with such speed that opposition to
ats extremes was caught off bal
ance. Now, however, the Industrial
Union of Marine & Shipbuilding
Workers and school teachers
groups have made known their pro-
tests and there seems to be some
chance the House will tone the bill
down.
The most important questions,
these people say, are these: Who
will decide what organizations are
subversive? And where does critic

Unity Plea Made
By lam Leader

New York (LPA)-If labor is to
fulfill it's obligation TO the Ameri-
can people, it must remain in poll
ties and give united support to lib
eral candidates and programs in all
future elections, AL Hayes, vice.

Machinists, said last week.
He spoke here at conference Of

as principal speakers.
at took the Taft Hartley law to
shake us from our lethargy in
asserted Hayes. unless
we remain active and alert in the
days ahead, our Nov. 2 victory will
be an empty one, or at least tenn
porary one"
Hayes called upon unions to
strengthen the flimsy political or
which each formed be-
fore the last major election. He
warned his audience that reaction
in America is as strong and united
as ever before in history.
To-day we find the special in
terests and the reactionary states
men aligned closer than ever, try
ing to force their will against the
will and welfare of the great maj
ority of our people, notwithstand-
ing the results of the November
election"

sibility the task of aaking the

The General Assembly has now
entered it's third month of deliber-
alton. A total of 908 bills have
been introduced, $50 in the House
and 255 in the Senate. Status of
the more important Labor bills are
as follows:
Unemployment Compensation
S. b. l42-(Guthrie THE Sen
ate Commerce and Labor Commit
tee has completed several stormy
hearings on this bill, sponsored by
the administration. Your Legisla
tive Agent pointed up the glaring
deficiencies in the present law, and
urged amendments to S. b. 142
which would make the measure
more acceptable to Labor. Amend
ments have been introduced, but
many of them do not meet with the
approval of Labor. The Lake Sea-
men, in one of the Amendments,
are allowed only 46 weeks in which
compensation may be claimed, in
stead Of the 81 weeks allowed
other workers. S. b. 142 provides
for dependents under 18 receiving
additional benefits to a maximum
of $500 weekly. H. b. 254 wit

sored by the Ohio State Fedora
tion of Labor, will receive a hear
ing for proponents Tuesday, March

ended on this bill, and it is expect
ed it will be voted upon favorably
and sent to the House floor at an
early date II. b. 53l is the
agreed" bill between the Ohio

Ohio Manufacturers Association.
1t contains many excellent provis-
ions, including raising maximum
benefits from $25 to $50 weekly;
longer periods of compensation,
liberal silicosis sections, and many
other benefits Of great value to the
workers of Ohio.

repeal the notorious Ferguson Act,
was passed by the House II to 81,

ism of domestic policy and dis
loyalty begin? And will a person
who makes charges to the States
Attorney General be immune from
suits for libel or SANDER? These
are important factors, since the
bill provides for up to 20 years in
prison and $4,000 fines for persons
found guilty of 'subversive' acts.
Of twelve other states consider
ing some legislation on the sub
ject, most are aimed at keeping
Communists off the public payroll
by forcing state and local govern
ments employees to swear they are
not members of the Communist
Party. Texas, however, would force
such employees to swear they have
never been Communists.
