RnRN0N DiCrwCCoC The Advantages Of
SHHD~WAO ~A"USA"NV" Making Will

BABSON PARK, Mass, Oct. %
Too many people die without
leaving a will. The result; finan-
cial tangles, family squabbles,
lawsuits, and the disposition of
the property entirely contrary to
the wishes of the deceased.
Why Make A Will?
Some day each of us will die.
Making a will can neither hasten

FUZZY THINKING

In report on the affairs in the National
Capital an outstanding authority makes the
bold assertion that: ''The pension plan is
getting the country all tangled up, unbalanc-
ed, in state of mind that suggests that it
may be little fuzzy in its thinking" The
union labor Bosses are engaging in trying to
tie up the country to "free" pensions. The
unbalanced condition is found in the fact that
the movement is so general that the Nation
seems to have hOOked-up lot of states, and
taken over millions of people, most of whom
want separate systems. And the authority
quoted above observes that there should be
more security for old and disabled people so
that everybody at all times, if old or sick,
or disabled, shall have at least S1OO a month
cash lncOme-cOme what may" There is a
craze for Security" evidently because peo-
pie want to relax, forget worries, look ahead
to lifetime of security, in a world that was
never more insecure, with war threats. in
flatiOn, atom bombs, revolutionary pressure
from abroad, money juggling armament.
budget troubles and so forth. Have you sum-
med up your own case to prove that YOU
should have pension?

Dor and the votes are there now
to prevent the overriding Of hi,
veto as was done with the origi-
nal legislation.
Already some labor leaders are
growing ominously that they
choose nothing. They are ready
to stake everything on their abi!-
ity to improve their congressional
representation in 1850. This in
transient attitude was one OF
the factors that ruined the adj
ministration compromise in the
House.
Beginning to Pinch.
But not all labor Is in quite that
mood. The Taft Hartley Act is be-
ginning to pinch them hard. Their
closed-shop contracts are running
out and the loss Of the check-of
will seriously deplete their union
treasures. The new bill. they
note, softens some of these rains
and they are asking whether or
not they should try ut long last
to do o little business with Sem
ator Taft.

Senator Taft is individually in the
saddle on this issue. In part, be-

Then came, like the dawn, an
election wherein the Republican
Party found 1t had played right
into the hands of Harry Truman.
Strategy Worn Thin.
There are signs that the party

the cute trick that its House lead

most pulled of. with the Wood
bill, a rather good copy of the
| Taft Hartley Act for which it en-
listed Southern Democrat. Rep

has worn thin.
Once again the Republican Par
Ity stands before the public as ty-
| ing itself up with an economic
political element In the South
which backed the Taft-Hartley
Act originally and now the Wood
bill as an instrument to crush
labor unionism in the South.
That is no secret to any one
familiar with the South. Another
Georgian. Representative Lanham.
one of the few Southerners who
voted against the Taft-Hartley
bill originally. said during debate
on labor legislation that he voted
against that measure because Il
was convinced that whatever its
purpose, its effect would be just
what its effect has been. and that
is to hamper union organization,
especially in the South" He was
against the Wood bill because 1t
Is too much like the Taft-Hartley
BILL"
MIR. Lanham declared . further
that in the South the Taft Hartley
| law also has had the effect Of "ac-
tually destroying unions that al
ready were in existence"
"Clear Rabble Out"
One owner of a small chain of
textile mills in Texas who had con-
tracts for several years with the
Textile Workers Union Of Amer
lea and had maintained excellent
relations with the union. went to
officials of the union recently and
told them that terrific pressure
was being brought upon him by
powerful financial. business and
political forces in Texas to break
with the CLIO and help to clear
that rabble out"

on the political situation there
with Communists refraining from
any further expansion Of their
influence into Western Europe
tThis concerns Moscow, the foun-
tainhead of communism in Eu-
rope, rather than the various
Communist parties In Western
EUROPE
Scarcely less important. from
our standpoint, Is the creation of
a democratic German government
including the eastern zone II
the Russians viii permit true de-
mocracy there, excluding 1t If not
and the indignation of stable
and nonaggressive Germany In
the society Of nations.
Efforts Must BE Positive.
Our efforts in this direction
must be positive and pursued with
energy. We must avoid being
put on the defensive and In the
position simply Of protecting the
West German state which is be-
ing created by the Germans in
the Bonn Assembly. One Of our
top demands on Russia. then.
must be the unification Of Ger
many along the lines OF the
planned West German state.
We must have a peace treaty
for Austria which will permit us
In the not too distant future TO
withdraw most of our armed forces
from that country and permit the
Austrians to conduct their own
political life without interference
from either East or West.
There are many other issues
which might be raised II the Paris
Conference were to attempt any
discussion Of the whole relation
ship between East and West. There
are the questions Of the satellite
states and their oppression OF
religious groups. There are such
things as the bitter day-to-day
Russian propaganda assault
against the West and its politico-
economic system.
The best guarantee Of coming
out of the Paris Conference with
some success Is that we go into
1t with a clear and definite pro-
gram for Germany for which we
intend to fight and which repre-
sents our hopes for the future not
only of that country but of all of
Europe.

concrete, that they must be spe-
cific and that they must be posi-
tive. In nature are certafnties
which go hand in hand with our
knowledge that the Russians will
not come to any such conference
empty handed. They will come
with hard. immediate proposals
which will put us on the spot.
We will be forced TO make de-
cisions on matters which are of
long-range effect not only to the
United States but to the whole
world.
BARGAINING Position.
What. then. is the best position
from which to bargain with the
Russians? Certainly 1t is from an
advanced, positive position which
is based not only on the immedi-
ate needs Of Germany and Eu-
rope. but the long-range needs as
well.
In other words, we must go into
the Paris Conference. Of Foreign
Ministers with q clear-cut pro-
gram Of what we want for the
future Of Europe. and we must
press that program theoretically,
receding from an assumed posi-
ton only when satisfactory quid
pro quo is forthcoming.

now completing plans for "a

rael, Daniel Frisch, Z.O.A. presi-

Mr.. Frisch said, 'It is our in
tention to register young General

willing and ready to spend time
in Israel, so that they may be
among the first to be settled in

lished, as well as in such Israel
technical institutions as need their
services"
Mr.. Frisch termed "outmoded"
the HechalutZ activities hitherto

in America. "They are complete
unsuited to the new situation
which has arisen with the estab-
lishment of the Jewish state" he
