Which Days Journal Of
Commerce Do You Read?

New York (LPA)-If you add
up the big front-page stories on
the auto industry in the Journal of
Commerce, June 8 and Journal of
Commerce, June 8, and divide by
two, the answer should be zero.
Trouble is that kind of arithmetic
doesn't work that way.
The stories with Detroit date
lines, both by J of C writer Sidney
Fish, have the following headlines:
June 8-"Recession May Fore
stall JAWS Fourth Round Drive"
June 9-"Auto Industry Leaders
See Recession Brief"
The first story is all about the
UAW and how the auto manufac-
turers can't meet the union de-
mands because "the national busi-
ness recession will widen and deep
en-" The second story says that

NLRB Must Take
Union Feud Cases

Washington (LPA)-A federal
district judge last week ruled that
under the Taft-Hartley law the
NLRB must hold hearings on jur-
isdictional cases brought before it
by trade unions.
To NLRB Associate General
Counsel Norman Somers' plea that
the ruling would flood the NLRB,
Judge E d ward Tamm replied
Whether 5000 or $4,000 cases
arise cannot influence the court"
Somers said that the board has
been able to dispose of 900 of the
cases brought to it without con-
Quoting formal hearings. But, the
judge insisted, complaining union
has a right to hearing.
The case involved arose from the
request of an independent union of
phone workers that it, not the Int'l
Brotherhood of Electrical Workers
AFL, be given jurisdiction over
jobs at the new Idlewild airport
and United Nations headquarters
in New York.

Jap Miners
Reject Reds

Tokyo (LPA)-A determined eff.
fort by Communists to take over
Japan's huge coal miners union
Tanro, failed at the national con-
vention here last week.
The Communists, who until re-
Gently had dominated a dual union
called Zensekitan, had dissolved the
latter organization and affiliated
with Tanro as separate locals. The
convention provided the first test
of strength between the two fac
tionS.
Takeo Muto, Tanro's president,
who recently visited the United
States as labor representative on
Japan's delegation to the lilo coal
conference at Pittsburgh, Pa, was
reelected, 217-122. Muto carried
with him the entire anti-Commun-
ist slate, including Tadashi Yam
amoto, editor of the unions paper
against whom the Communists had
centered their fire.
Non-Communists won a second
victory when the convention ac-
cepted the mediation proposal of

Plans To Scrap
Fair Deal Agendo

Washington (LPA) = After &
weeks bombardment by labor anc
liberal organizations, Sen. Scott
Lucas Cd, Ill., Democratic Senate
floor leader, denied last week that
any of President Truman's Faii
Deal program is "out the window
While he refused to predict what
Fair Deal measures would get
action this session, he admitted
that it won't be possible for Con-
gress to adjourn by July 81. Both
Lucas and Speaker of the House
Sam Rayburn had previously de-
Fclared for adjournment BY that
date. President Truman himself
rebuked them on this count.
Rayburn assured reporters this
week that the House will get to
work on the administration hous-
ing bill.
A telegram from Philip Murray

leaders Gliding Lucas and Rayburn
for their quick adjournment plans,
and a speech by AFL Secretary
George Meany saying that this
Democratic Congress had done
little more for labor than the pre-
vious Republican Congress, had,
did much to alter the Lucas-Ray-
burn plans, observers here say.
