PATIENT CY CHING

Unsung hero of the steel nego- tiations was long, lanky. Cy Ching who at the age Of Fl, resigned from the U s. Rubber Company two years ago to help his country as a labor conciliator.
 Ching's patience is that of Job's.' All week long, hour after hour, day after day, like broken phono- graph record, he listened to the same company arguments that workers must contribute to the pension fund.
 But your captive coal mines have noncontributory agreement with John L. Lewis" Ching told U. s. Steel Vice President John Stephens.
 "Yes, and look what happened to Lewiss pension fund" Stephens replied. Its been bankrupted be- cause it never was set up on sound, actuarial basis in the first place. We want to establish a sound pension plan for U. s. Steel employees.
 Ching argued that Phil Mur- ray had proved his responsibility by his relentless fight against Com munist clements in the CIO. In fact, Murray's leadership was now being endangered because of his broad-guaged acceptance of the fact-finding boards proposals for ending the steel strike, which man. agement had rejected. As result, CIO left-wingers, were yelling for his scalp.
 Didn't it mean something to the company to be able to do busi- ness with a high-claSs, levelhead- ed, responsible American like Phil Murray? asked Ching.
 Well, this question Of contrib utory pensions is a matter of prin- ciple with us" interposed Roger Blough, counsel for U. s. Steel. The Presidential fact-finders would have come up with a different sol ution if they had to run a s.eel mill, he intimated.
 Maybe the fact-finders also took into consideration the problems oi those who work in steel mill, sly ly suggested Ching.
 But contrjbutory pensions art now an accepted fact-a part O. e9r economy" argued Stephens "Social-Security pensions are con tributory. The railroad retiremen act is based on the same principle Private industry cannot be criti cized for going along with the pat tern established by Congress"
 So it went-Sometimes into th' night.

TANSTAAFL

Pierre Dos Utt is learned man whose name appears in no who's who' and whose scholarly works are listed in no hibliographies. In fact, Pierre Dos Utt is planner who has devoted himself to the re. making of society and he is not the first who tried it. The blessing is that most planners only talk or write about it and get lost in a maze of words; although Karl Marx has. become the icon of my riads of the breed who quarrel so violently that the hope of so- ciety is that they may devour each other.
 At any rate, Pierre Dos Utt has at long last produced book which contains his masterly plan. He calls it "Tanstaafl." The author says that it is from the Babylonian, but philologists will insist that it is Sanskrit, corrupted by Low Ger man. Than which nothing is lower as everybody knows. However, il has meaning which I shall secret ly give you at the end of this mon- ograph on Tanstaafl which I write with the approval of ASGS, which is whatever you think it is alx' I hope you keep it clean.

S24S0 PER CAPITA?

We give Delegate Bob Bartlett plenty of credit for obtaining appropriations of $248GoO0OO for Alaska during the recently adjourned Congress.
 A Congressman speaking at the Chamber of Com merce meeting Thursday called attention to the fact that based on possible 100000 population for the Territory that would be per capita appropriation from Federal funds of $2480
 For which duly grateful
 But all of us including Deelgate Bartlett we are sure realize that the military appropriations for the defense of Alaska not made to defend 100000 AIasans but to defend the 150000000 people in all of the United States.
 This in way is intended to disparge Delegat Bartlett's accomplishment
 But let's be realistic about it.
 Of course a lot of those dollars will drbble back to the individual Alaskan. That is one thing aboui our Territory-the population is so small that any additional activity, any additional capital invested in the country, helps greatly.

board. .CIO Boss Phil Murray, who knows better, has let his CO., horts get away with an unfair habit which boomerangs against labor. Though housing expediter Tighe Woods has been castigated hy the real estate lobby, the CIO convention in Cleveland also cas- tigated him for being the friend of the real estate lobby. It looks like Woods was really trying to be impartial. The CIO convention also castigated Jim Reynolds, cons cientious NLRB member, as anti labor. Reynolds has tangled with some labor bosses but has a long record of fighting for the little guy.

LABOR-GO-ROUND

Truman will not reappoint J. Copeland Gray to the National Labor Relations Board when his term expires this year. Labor is down on him. Labor leaders now figure that if they can't repeal the Taft Hartley Act. the best tactic is to pressure for pro-la- bor men on the NLRB. Usually John L. Lewis has made the mine operators sweat Now the operat- ors are letting John sweat. He has been desperately anxious to settle the coal strike. Ben Hairless, President of U. s. Steel and the son of a coal miner, two weeks ago urged his company executives to sign a one-year contract with the union along the lines recommend ed by the Presidents fact-finding

She Missed Fame
Cincinnati Enquirer)

We really don't know what she undertook to prove, but about all that Mrs. Julia Roka St. Clair have achieved by her 1OOO-mile wheelbarrow push a wheelbarrow for 0OO miles, Her son rode in the wheelbarrow most of the way so we suppose the feat also shows that woman push a wheelbarrow containing boy for 1000 miles. a
 If Mrs. St. Clair hoped to achieve some measure of fame distinction by trundling famed Irish yehice from one end of the land to the other, she must have been grievously disappointed, because al many of the way points she treated she put it, 'inhospitabe" Some police forces seemed to resent the interference with traffic; in other towns the authorities didn't know what to make of the stunt put regarded it with suspicion
 Of course, wheelbarrow not designed for country travel It is vehicle of immense utility lowever Tn fact it literally helped build this country The Irish immigrants of two three generations ago tlso had a part in the feat-providing the motive ower-a fact which led to many witty comments. We recall one, by Irishman, John Clark Molloy. Ie said many people gave the wheelbarow credit for etting Irshmen up off of four legs and teaching hem to walk on two. There is truth in this story, If course.
 Anyhow Mrs. St. Clair is where she is going title footsore and perhaps bit heartsick But, as tunts go we submit that hers at least achieved a wanted to go which is more than you say for most flagpoe sitting and Channel swimming We eally think that Mrs. St. Clair missed out on fame or only reason
 She didn't have press agent in the wheelbarrow.

Now, to get to the heart of the matter, Dos Utt finds the human
 race in a very sad state and has
 a solution for the problem, he fol-
 lowing in a long line of solvers
 which includes Hammurabi, Wang
 Anshih, Akbar Karl Marx and Henry Wallace, to say nothing of Aristotle, Plato, Henry George, and Leon Keyserling. He states the problem succinctly: }' And correlated with this in herent urge to gain at the expense
 of others is the deep-seated desire to show off our superiority. Fo. this reason, we buy flashy automo-
 piles, elaborate houses, extrava-
 gant clothes and sparkling jewels "As money is the medium through which we are able to reflect our affluence, it at once becomes the final goal of our objective. Hence money is the ultimate symbol of our inherent disposition to kill Now, if you understand that, you can understand anything and ought to reach the proper conclusion which is to drop dead, as Milton Berle would say in Lingua Bronx, but Dos Utt puts it more cogently in the following forensic.
 "The basic human urge to kill for self -aggrandisement is very strong and it is also very danger ous if it is not controlled. Our
 recommendation is to stimulate
 personal ambition, but to have it
 strictly regulated by a Supreme State authority. Then the pattern of human advancement can be evenly regulated for the benefit
 of all the deserving
 The volume is amply supplied with charts and graphs but omits photographs as beneath scientific contempt Also photographic ex- actitude defies the artistic skill of the chart drawer who divinesi what figures mean by making them obscure. It is thus ruled by the Society of Statistical Arts. It also is adequately statistical and foot noted and proves it's point by al- zebra but omits astrophysics. However, I should fail my read CTS were I not to point to one
 essential lapse in this otherwise colossal labor. On page 18, Dos Utt provides chart to prove that horses, cattle, fowl and hogs have made great progress but that man has stood still He has not, most surprisingly, noted that a wing 1 less fowl has been produced, thus increasing the breast of this biped. This omission is serious because 1 of it's implications, for were we, l by our higher intelligence, to pro- duce an armless man, we should forever save the human race from kleptomania, which is a short term for such creatures as pickpockets, tax collectors and subsidy hunters. : Now, our secret:
