.Mine-Mill Secretary
In Danger OF
Losing Eyesiggllt
Murray's Steelworkers Try To
Commit A Crank Little"
In Alabama City

Chicago, HIN. E. Travis, secre-
tary-treasurer of the international
Union Of Mine, Mill and Shelter
Workers, last week underwent an
operation which it was hoped would
save an injured eyeball. The injury
was incurred April goth when Travis
was kicked in the eye by a staff
member of the United Steelworkers
of America in radio station WILD
at Bessemer, Alabama.
The operating physician said he
hoped that the eyeball could be
saved as a result of his sewing up
ruptured tissues to stop a continuing
hemorrhage. He had little hope of
saving any vision in that eye.
Travis will be hospitalized in Bes-
semer at least two weeks, and will
be incapacitated for work two
months or more. His injuries in
Guided multiple bruises, decorations,
cuts and loss of blood. He was
struck over the head with a heavy
chair, then kicked in the face re-
peatedly, beaten and stomped as he
lay on the floor. His face was liter
ally unrecognizable and his clothing |
drenched in blood.
The attackers, numbering eight or
ten, caught Travis alone in waiting
room. They were staff members of
the United Steelworkers, led by Nick
zonarich, staff members of the CLIO
Southern Organizing Drive, and
former leaders of company unions
at properties of Tennessee Coal,
IRON and Railroad company = now
members of the Steelworkers.
Other IUMM&SW officers and
taff members were threatened with
,eating and death by the same t
rooms. Zonarich said to IUMM&SW '
education director Graham Dolan: G
This is what the Steelworkers are f
'oing to. do to you guys all over S
he country" Y

Woodrow Wilson in his War Mes
sage to Congress, April 2, 1947,
said: "Self governed nations do not
fill their neighbor states with spies,
or set in course an intrigue to bring
about some critical posture of af-
fairs which would give them an OPP

quest. Such designs can be sue

cles, who would plan what they

one, would be corruption seated at

Are we a "self governed" nation?
The majority of us detest spies. The
establishment of a spy system proves
that we are no longer self gov
erned nation! No longer a democ-
racy.
Abdication of the Congress
When/if, the Atlantic Pact is rati-

lower house takes no part. Sec. 2,
Art. II, U. S. Const. But the entire
Congress has the power to declare
war. If the senate can declare war
in advance, by treaty, the power of
the lower house to join in any dec

was president also of

AMEND

STEIN NJ.
; TO WAGE,

Every member of organized la
Dor and all friends of a decent living
standard should make it a point tt
write their congressman and sena
tors demanding their support of the
administrators amendments to the
wage and hour law" Bruce Stein
metz, president of the Cascade Coun-
ty Trades and Labor assembly, said
Saturday.
Steinmetz issued a statement ex-
planning the amendments.
"When the portal act was passed
in 1947, it said that no employee
could file suit for payment of back
wages for a period of more than
two years prior to the date the claim
was filed in the courts. That
meant" Steinmetz said, "that re-
CARELESS of how many years a work
man had been underpaid, he couldn't
ask for relief for more than two
years back.
"The amendments to the wage and
hour law now being considered by
congress would set up a four-year
statute of limitations, instead of the
present two-year limit.
''The amendments" Steinmetz
continued, ''would provide more
equitable and broader coverage to
workers. Many of the existing ex-
emptions would be retained. The
would encourage collec-
i've bargaining agreements for en-
Dloyment on an annual wage basis

State of Disrepaiir

A committee authorized by the
F'lathead County Farmers Union
convention to visit the county hos
pital submitted it's report to the
executive board of that organization
at regular meeting of the board
April 18th. The committee reported
the inside of the building in a sad
state of repair, badly in need of
paint, linoleum, and modern conven-
fences. The inadequate water sys-
tenn and the inaccessible and badly
designed fire escapes make the build
ing death trap for the patients if
a major fire occurred.
The committee praised the man
ager and his wife for the effort
they are making to provide decent
service with facilities so made
quate that the hospital license has
been revoked by the licensing
board.

By LOWNDES MAURY


The price of freedom is eternal
vigilance. For four years, every
warning given us by the statesmen
whose care and wisdom have guided
this nation to it's present state, has
been disobeyed.
Big Brass
Of George III the Declaration of
independence said:
"He has affected to render the
military Independent of, and supe-
rior to, the civil power" Who holds
the purse strings, holds the power.
Congress is too weak to oppose any
serious requisition of the Army, the
Navy, or Air Forces. They de-
manded, and have been given, the
spending of rs per cent of the entire
federal income.
Riotous Government Waste
The first inaugural of Jefferson is
even more instructive than the I'm
mortal Declaration. 1t should be
read aloud in every high school,
every year, I paraphrase from it:
"There is necessary to make us a
happy and prosperous people, a wise
and frugal government that shall not
take from the mouth of labor the
bread it has earned" In the final
reckoning, as labor of head and hand
produces all wealth, it must and does
pay all debts and expense of gov
eminent. Since this Republic was
founded, all the gold produced in the
world is only 40 billion dollars. The
annual expense of the Truman rule,
if it stays inside the budget tit will
not) is 46 billion dollars.
Again in the great inaugural is
mentioned Economy in the public
expense, that labor may be lightly
ourdened"
Andrew Jackson got the federal
government out of debt, a surplus
in the treasury. This was checked
1ut to the state governments. The
present debt is 252 billion dollars.
n three years, since VI Day, this
ould easily have been reduced to
700 billion dollars if there had been
pplied what has gone into prepara-
ion for war against a former ally /
nd a peaceful nation.

The Red, Roses swept their three
game series with the Owls, taking
their final game on Thursday night
by a score of 1914.
1t was real ball game through the
first five innings, and in the top
half of the sixth it looked as if Ha-

into the win column, when they
came up with four runs to finally
go ahead Al.
But the lead didn't last long, as
Lancaster showed across five more
runs in the bottom half of the sixth,
to go ahead ga, and then put the
game on ice with four-run splurge
in the seventh.

The Red Roses made it two
straight over the Owls on Wednes-
day night when, in a free hitting
game, they took the measure of Ha-
gerstown by a score of 1910.
Six pitchers saw action, three for
each team. Dickinson started for
the Owls, and he was spotted SO
lead, but he couldn't hold it, and
was knocked out of the box in the
third frame after giving up five
runs, to tie the score.
Pat Mccullough relieved him, and
the Owls turned around and piled
up 9-5 lead for him. But he could
MT hold it either and was relieved
by Wheaton in the seventh after
giving up six runs to put the Red
Roses ahead 11-9.
Even with all that bad pitching
the Owls could have won the game,
had it not been for a bad error in
the seventh, as the result of which
all four runs in that inning were
unearned
The Owls had a final chance to get
back into the ball game in the ninth,
with the bases loaded and two out,
but Hiden struck out to end the
inning and the game.
Ed Yasinski started for Lancaster,
but he only lasted two and third
innings, during which he gave up
five runs, and Red Sweeney came in.
He stuck around for six innings,
during which he gave up five hits
and no less than eight walks. He
left the game in the. ninth, with the
bases loaded and two out, and Glane
came in and put out the fire.
Although the Owls had twelve
hits, only two of them were for

Hidden. Hiden had two for four, and
Dykes, Chaser and ,Crumling each
got two for FIVE The other three
hits were off the bats of Hixson,
