IN MEMORY

In loving memory of Miss
Emma Millhonc; who departed
this life one year ago, April /
1913
The month of April again is
here,
To me, one Of the saddest of
the year;
Because it took from me away
The one | loved SO dear.
More and more each day I miss
her
Friends may think the wound
is healed
But they little know the sorrow
That lies within my heart
concealed.
A happy home we both enjoyed
How sweet the memory still
But death has left loneliness
The world can never fill.
Sadly missed by

On the Other Hand
Upholding of Little Taft.Hartley Acts
Puts Labor More Deeply in State Politics

they were confident the legislatures
would likewise follow the lead of
Congress in the repeal Of same.
Referendum elections in three
States, at the time of the general
election, encouraged this confidence.
Massachusetts,, Maine and New
Mexico voters rejected restrictive
proposals, although two non-indus-
trial States, Arizona and North Da-
kota, adopted such legislation.
This is the year in which most
States, A in all, have their biennial
legislative sessions. None Of the
national groups is able to estimate
how much strength organized labor
has among these legislatures, no
tabulation having yet been made.
Reports thus far received indicate
that more card-carrying union men
have been elected in the States than
ever before but the total of these
would not be important even in the
highly industrial States. If the
little Hartley Acts" are to be
repealed and similar laws headed
off, the votes will have to come from
friends of labor, not from union
members.
May Bring AFL, CIO Closer.
The ruling of the Supreme Court
may or may not have been a sur
prise to labor leaders generally.
Some say they expected it. While
their lawyers attacked the con-
stitutionality Of the State laws,
they say. they are aware that the
present court has consistently up
held the full legislative powers of
the separate States. They had laid
their plans to fight for repeal in
the II States, they say, regardless
of the cases before the court.
One effect of the courts decision
may be to bring the AFL and the
CIO a little closer together. The
two big organizations have been
discussing-at something like arms
length-the question of a Joint leg
islative program. Since each is
weak in some States in which the
other is strong. they may decide
that joint operation is not only ad-
visable but imperative If they hope
to reverse the legislative trend at
the State level.

This Changing World
Truman May Use Executive Agreement
To Avoid Risk of Atlantic Pact ReiectionI

For instance, most of the Sena-
tors who visited Greece returned
with very poor impression of the
return we are getting for our help
to that country. They feel that
while American dollar assistance
has prevented the Communists from
reaching the Eastern Mediterra-
mean, conditions in that country
have, If anything, become worse
than they were before we started
sending help.
Rise in Red Rolls Cited.
These men point out that the
number of Communists In Greece
has increased rather than decreased
in the last 18 months. It Is probable,
however, that new appropriations
for Greece will face a nominal
struggle on the part of some Re-
publicans, but the amount involved,
being relatively small for the 1949-
1850 period, will be approved.
The question of a formal under
standing on our part to help West
ern Europe militarily in the event
Of Russian attack will be far more
ticklish, however. In private con-
versations the Senators who are dis
cusSing this matter admit that the
whole business of formal treaty
of alliance is academic. They real
ize that in the event of a Russian
attack on the Western nations we
will rush to the rescue, treaty or no
treaty.
Today. much more than during
World War II, our own security
would be severely threatened if the
Soviet armies move farther west
than they are now. Without any
kind of formal obligation on our
part American destroyers were
shooting at German submarines at
least II months before Pearl Har-
Dor, because the Administrator
considered a Nazi victory in Europe
direct threat to the United States.
No Problems on Arms.
There is no doubt that Congress
will be as liberal as the White
House demands about providing
Western European armies with mil
itary equipment. But it is feared in
Administration circles that If a de-
mand Is made for formal alliance
with Western Europe, which would
shatter our traditional policy of no
foreign entanglements, the silver
tongued orators in the Senate
might arouse the country against
such a treaty, and that would have
serious repercussions in Europe.
Hence. the suggestion being made
by Mr.. Truman's advisers that he
resort to an executive agreement to
avoid submission of a formal treaty
to the Senate.

ulS, dIIcIiI1Oll AO"eh moHess'
had generally been focused on the
approaching battle in Congress for
the repeal Of the Taft Hartley Act.
Since then there has been some fear
among labor leaders that they may
have to meet an outbreak of what
they call guerrilla warfare all over
the country. This would take the
form of legislation or attempted
legislation similar to the State stat
utes held valid by the Supreme
Court.
Seventeen States already have
statutes which labor leaders char
acterize as little Taft-Hartley
Acts" most Of them passed in 1947.
Twelve States-Arizona, Arkansas,
Georgia, Iowa, Nebraska, New
Hampshire, North Carolina, North
Dakota, South Dakota, Tennessee,
Texas and Virginia-ban all forms
of closed shops and union shops and
regulate maintenance-of-member-
ship provisions in union contracts.
Five other States, Colorado, Del
aware, Florida, Kansas and Wis
consin, severely restrict union Sc
curity contracts.
Effect IL the Same.
AS far. as the average worker or
his union is concerned, these State
laws have quite the same effect as
the parallel provisions in the Taft
Hartley Act. The national labor
organizations therefore had expect
ed to press hard this winter for their
repeal. Because OF the trend re-
vealed in the national election and
in many of the State elections, they
were hopeful of success in a number
Of the States. Just as that State
legislatures had seemed in 1947 to
follow the lead of Congress in the
enactment of anti-labor legislation,

proposed by the President In his
campaign.
The Vinson mission was vetoed
by the bipartisan architects. in
cluding Senator vandenberg, Re-
publican, Of Michigan, and Secre-
tary of State Marshall. The elec-
ton returns convinced the Presi-
dent, nevertheless. that it was popu-
lar with the people.
If the President should, as in
fuential quarters anticipate, draft
Chief Justice Vinson as Secretary
of State to replace ailing Secretary
Marshall, the confident expectation
will be that some kind of similar
peace overtures will be made to
Prime Minister Stain or to those
certain leaders" in Russia, who the
President said at Kansas City, Diff
fered from the official Red policy.
AS Secretary of State, the Chief
Justice would also be accepted as
the Truman heir-apparent in 1852.
1t might be asking a lot to expect
the Republicans to give him the
same support they accorded non-
partisan Gen. Marshall.
No Interference Possible
In any case, if all this be dis
carded as speculation, the fact
remains that the Senate group is
now constituted in such a way that
there can be no interference with
Truman foreign policy moves.
The hill admits nothing about the
White House; it is impossible to
imagine that the Vice President
elect, Senator Barkley, who had to
defend the change. failed to realize
its import and to fit it to a Truman
pattern.
Senator Barkley can and has on
occasion made matters of the rela-
tive Importance of footpath
through the Jersey meadows seem of
crucial moment to posterity simply
because Democrats desired them.
He was noticeably unhappy and in
effective In his chore of replying to
Senator Vandenberg's attack on the
committee shift.
No Questions Of Personnel.
The change was not cleared with
the State Department. The depart
ment said quickly it was entirely a
legislative matter; it did not at
tempt to minimize the potential i'm
portance of what was done.
No questions of personnel arise
in connection with it. The Demo-
cratic majority Is firmly interna-
tionalist with genuine claims to
membership. The surprise was
Senator Mcmahon of Connecticut,
author of the Atomic Energy Act
and now chairman of the Joint
Committee on Atomic Energy.
Senator Mcmahon got his chance
when 1t was agreed that the Sc
riously i'll Senator Wagner, Demo-
crat, Of New York, should retire
from the committee.
Being Secretary Of the steering
committee which mades the assign
ments, Senator Mcmahon was on
hand. so to speak. He was able to
argue convincingly that atomic en-
ergy, to which he has had the brains
and patriotism to devote himself,
falls with immense impact on for
eign affairs. He also could point
out that Senator Wagner was the
only Catholic on the 13-man COM
