Randolph Warns
Fight Still On

Chicago UPA) - Presid d G n I
Woodruff Randolph of the Init
Typographical Union-AFL hit q
realistic note in his New Years
message to union members last
week.
He warned that the TITUS fight
to preserve union standards will
have to be carried on against anti
union employers, with the same
vigor the union has shown in fight
ing Taft-Hartley restrictions, even
if that vicious law is repealed.
The financial burden of the
typos epochal fight against anti
labor legislation has been great
he pointed out. GAS matters stand
now" Randolph said, sit may well
be that another assessment will be
necessary after the present AZ fo
expires in Feb. 1919.
"If employer propaganda sue
ceeds, even thru some of our mem
bers, we will fail to keep the lTU
together" Randolph declared
"This is true even if the Taft
Hartley law is repealed-becausC
of the added viciousness of the
fight against US.
"The Chicago papers," he point
ed out, "have taken an attitude
that regardless of the repeal OF
the Taft Hartley law there are
matters vital to the lTU which the
publishers will not now agree to il
contract, nor concede without
one"
The same questions are raised il
dozen other cities, the typos chiei
said, in his call for continued sup
port by ITU members everywhere
for their brothers on strike.

Unions Are Sued
Under Lew

Paducah, Ky.-The Deena Art
ware Company, Chicago, filed suit
in federal district court here seek
ing damages totaling $43l, ,989
against two labor unions and the
American Federation Of Labor.
The suit is based primarily on
the company's contention that it
was forced to abandon construction
of an addition to its production
plant in Paducah through unlawful
picketing.
Unions named are the United
Brick and Clay Workers of Amer
lea and the International Brother
hood of Teamsters, Chauffeurs,
Warehousemen and Helpers of Am
erica. Both are affiliated with the
AFL. The suit was brought under
federal statutes outlawing second
ary boycotts.

Labor To Defend Freedom Throughout
World, Says Green In New Years Talk

Washington, d. c. QLNS). =
In a militant New Years message
which warned against Communist
reversion to the Dark Ages" Pre-
sident William Green of the Amer
ican Federation of Labor called
upon American workers to join
with free labor throughout the
world in maintaining and advanc
ing democracy and freedom.
Stressing the necessity of inter-
national cooperation by the worlds
free workers, President Green de-
clared that with the growing in
terdependence of the economies of
all countries we find that un-free-
dom in one country menaces the
freedom of workers in other coun-
tries"
Must Work For Democracy
He pointed out that the AFL has
"tried to aid and restore free trade
unions as the bulwark of human
freedom throughout the world and
continued:
"Since we as trade unionists
have rights and responsibilities in
keeping with our democratic insti-
tutions, we, in turn, should work
for the advancement of democratic
ideals nationally and information
ally and support our government
in promotion of these same ideals.
"The USSR has declared war on
all free governments and free Soc
ieties and plans to impose a con-
trolled press and controlled educa-
tion upon such people, together
with suppression of church and
family life as we know it. The
Communist regime recognizes no
personal rights and no law-only
the will of dictators designated by
party officers. Party members seek
to infiltrate all our institutions to
control them in the interests of
Moscow.
Final Decision" Given
GAS members of the worlds
strongest, most militant trade un-
ion organization, let us arm our
selves in this world crisis with a
determination to maintain freedom
that will make us invincible. By
uniting with free trade unions IN
other countries, we can form a
global chain for defense and main
tenance of human freedom. We
must be on guard against the
enemy in our unions, our press, our
community, and in all world re-
lationships."
Green said that citizens of the
nation gave their "final decision"
on the Taft Hartley Act in the Pre-
sidential election and added:
"The election of President Tru-
man and the vote giving the Demo-
cratic Party control of Congress,
was the reply to the reactionary
advocates of anti-union legislation
which echoed round the world as
evidence of the effectiveness Of
democratic principles.
"The American Federation of
Labor is deeply gratified by this
victory which vindicated construc-
tive methods and we are confident

Employment Outlook ShdkY
Despite Rosey redictions

Cleveland tLPA) - Altn0 some
business economists and statistic
ians last week at the meeting of
the American Statistical Assn pre-
dicted a record high for employ
ment in 1949, the cool heads
thought otherwise.
DR.. Emanuel A. Goldenweiser of
the Institute of Advanced Study,
after listening to the optimistic
forecasts remarked tn al such
guesses are right only about once
out of every three times, and said
the business advisors are far too
bland
While pointing to "a number OF
cushioning factors" even Donald B.
Woodward a vice president of the
giant investment combine, Mutual
Life Insurance Co, had to admit
that "the betting odds are that the
next move in business activity will
be down."
Actual figures published by re-
liable government sources last
week seem to back up the pessi-
mists more than the CHEEKY souls.
The Census Bureau revealed that
in 1913 the available US working
force reached an all time peak of
63,S42,0 600 workers, with 81 1892, 900
for non-agricultural industry
100000 more than during the war.
But, said the Labor Dept actual
employment in mid-November had
declined to 45,700,000 non-farm
workers, 10000 below the October
level. And this despite the fact that
in preparation for the Christmas
season wholesale and retail en-
ployment had gone up by 10000.
Then last week a number Of rail-
roads announced extensive layoffs,
the Chesapeake & Ohio dismissing
as many as 5000 workers while the
New Haven & Hartford announced
that it will shortly make "eXten-
sive" reductions in its 23,000-man
payroll.
Much of this rail worker unem-
ployment is linked to production
declines and layoffs in the coal
mines which began several months
ago
These grim developments were
reflected in the December a report
of unemployment claims filed with
the Federal Security Agency. FSA
revealed that benefit claims for
the week numbered 1,075,900, or
149,O0O more than the previous
week. New unemployment in the
food processing, textile, and cloth
ing industries as well as seasonal
unemployment in construction and
numbering are involved.
Further contraction of job op-
portunities, as well as more con-
centration of business in the hands
of big corporations was fore
shadowed in year-end reports that
a number Of large firms plan to do
all their own work and cut out sub.
contracting. The ACF-Br bus
manufacturing company was one
corporation taking this position
and there are indications that the
Ford Motor Co. will follow suit.

for taxes, there is a very real
danger that certain groups will
bear a disproportionaeely heavy
share of the tax burden.
Consider the wage-earner in the
$4,000 yearly income class, an in
come somewhat higher than mill
ions of Americans are receiving
even in this current period of high
dollar income. If such wage-earn-
er should pay $3.50 Of his income
in taxes, his total tax bill would
be $3.50 and he would have $2,250
left after local, state, and Federal
tax collections have each taken
their share. In terms of purchasing
power, the 574-cent dollar of to-
day would enable his $2,250 to buy
only what could be bought with
1892 in 1910. 1t is obvious that
the taxpa er at the $4,000, $4,000,
and higher annual income levels is
in a much better position to pay
|25fo or more of his income in taxes
without any suggestion Of the
denial or hardship that must be
faced by those in lower income
groups. We must conclude, there
fore, that while taxes may not be
too high for the economy as a
whole, they may bear too heavily
on particular groups in our coun-
try.
Dangers in Burdening Low Income
Groups Further
Any shifting of the tax burden
to the low income groups over a
period of time, therefore, will re
suit in decreased purchasing power
that will be reflected in falling
of consumption and production that
will invite depression.
This shifting sanctioned by the
Seventy-ninth and Eightieth Con-
gress has already reached danger
Gus proportions. The decline in
corporation income tax collections
of from $15.5 billion in 1915 to So
billion in 1947 has been accompan-
led by steadily rising prices.
Whether the rising prices were OF
were not stimulated by the cut in
taxes is beside the point. The inn
