Pooling With Franco

Christian Science Monitor of May g. 1919
In at least two respects the current moves to get
the Spanish dictatorship into the good graces of the
United Nations and the United States are strikingy
i'll timed.
Two years ago it could be argued that the UN
moral ban on General Franco would rally the Spanish
people to him. If such effect was ever produced
little of it appears today where there is much evd-
ence that the playmate of Hitler and Mussolin is
hanging on to power by his toenas His financial
position is so desperate he has sought second loan
IN the United Stateshis time from the government
financed EXport-lmport Bank. Just who is it in
Washington that wants the American taxpayer to
rescue the Franco regime and finance it's continued
denial of liberty to the Spanish people?
A year ago it argued that if Russia tried
TO overrun Europe bases behind the Pyrenees would
be useful to the United States But the Spanish
people have had more than enough of war; and Franco
would have trouble giving military bases to the United
states lie could not go that far even for Hitler
IL Is very plain also that any value of bases gained in
Spain would be far outweghed by the loss of trust
and friendship among democratic elements in Europe
Today the Atlantic Pact gives the United States
plenty Of other bases in Europe-and with popular
support IN the countries involved. Pooling with
franco was bad business at any time; today it is
downright foolish that Americans should look behind
the advocates of such course and try to discover
"hat strange influence makes them act that way.

dustre including merchants of death) shot in the

tive Administration.
Likewise there appears little doubt the military will be
provided with SIS billions to play wthto replace
augment obsolete planes, tanks, etc. built in 1947 and
1913.
And appears only matter of days until vote will be
approval rejection of the Atlantic War Pact.
Should this receive senate ratification then the drive will be

to build western European military machines.

Former CIO General Counsel Analyses
New 'Mmdt-Nixon" Bill

Inc obligation to give, and mas III
practice not given, any hearing TO
organizations upon which he mas
placed his stamp of disapproval, nor
any opportunity in open forum TO
defend itself.
On the contrary, when several or
CARNATIONS have challenged the con-
stitutionality of his action in court,
the attorney general has argued that
these organizations have no stand
ing in court and has fought against
being compelled to present any evil
dence in court to justify the unfair
and arbitrary branding of such or
CARNATIONS.
However, re legislative or admin
istrative standards have ever been
provided to indicate the grounds
upon which the attorney general
may impose his official act of dis
approval upon any organization. The
executive order under which the at
torney general acts does not confine
the attorney general to the listing Of
organizations which advocate the
overthrow of the United States gov
eminent through force or violence.
The term subversive which is applied
to these several organizations is no
where's defined and may therefore
include an organization whose eco
nomic and political policies-though
perfectly peaceful in aim and pur-
pose-are displeasing to the Attor-
ney General.
Could Hamper Unions
1t may not be long step for the
attorney general to determine that
abor unions which seek wage in
ereases and improvement of working
conditions through a militant and
lighting program, should be branded

as subversive because theoretically
such policies may interfere" or
rhamper" the program and policies
of the attorney general and his as
sociates.
1t is imperative that this bill be
defeated Its enactment may we'll
be even more far-reaching and more
disastrous to progressive organiza-
tons and organized labor than the
passage of the Taft-Hartley act.
The American people demon
strated even to the satisfaction of
the reactionary 80th Congress that
they would not tolerate the enact
ment of the then proposed Mundt-
Nixon bill. Congressman Woods
bill is of the same stripe and should
receive the same treatment.

Particularly is it a surprise when one
bears in mind that it was Marcantonio, and
Marcantonio alone, who by a clever parlia-
mentary maneuver managed to delay action
on final passage of the Wood bill for "a
hours, and thus provided Administration
forces precious time in which to re-group its
forces and finally squeak through with a
narrow 212-209 vote of recommittal to COM
mittee of the Wood proposal.
Possibly the NEWS, like the top brass of
the Go, is becoming more and more an
organ of the Democratic party, and anyone,
no matter how faithful to labor, be he of
different partisan hue, becomes fair game

him joy. Already up against a heavy down
turn in farm prices, he has found little
evidence that this congress is seriously con-
cerned over the possibility of return of the
disastrous 1920-1940 farm price level which
forced millions of his fellow soil tillers into
bankruptcy.
Similar are the stories to date so far as
national health, valley authorities, FEPC,
civil rights, minimum wage, are concerned
The powerful Dixie-GOP coalition are of like
determination that none of these shall be
given favorable consideration.
What then has been ACCOMPLISHED. or
appears on the way to being accomplished
that will be of lasting benefit to the Amer
lean people?
Concerning the former-nothing About
the latter two things-and both in the sem
ate: Cd A start has been made toward whip
ping pressing education problem by the
appropriation of $500 100000 for federal
aid to education for the next fiscal year.
Compare this with the $500 million we are
spending each and every week on our mill
tary machine.) (2) A "25 per cent" housing
bill calling for construction of $4,000 new
homes within the next six or seven years
when the minimum needs for low cost hous-
ing, slum clearance, improved rural housing
are conservatively placed at over million
new units for the same period
Those are the achievements of the 81st
Congress thus far, and, from the growing
strength of the "econo-crats" there is little
reason for believing that when this congress
adjourns sine die in 1850, that much else will
have been accomplished But what else is
to be expected when the leaders of both
parties are determined to spend 76 cents out
of every tax dollar on one phase or another
of our military? 1t still goes that nation
cannot have gums and butter at the same
time. Likewise it is physical impossibiity
to be liberal on the domestic scene and i'm
perialistic in foreign affairs, for the latter
always has first call on the federal ex-
chenuer.

FE-CIO Attorney

Chairman John Wood of the house

has introduced the initial bill of this
reconstructed committee.
This bill makes it perfectly clear
that the purpose and policies of the
Dies Rankin Parnell Thomas era are
to continue.
Mr.. Woods bill would make it a
crime punishable by Imprisonment of
three years and $4,000 fine, for a
federal employee to become or re-
main a member of or contribute
funds to any organization, including
the Communist party, which may be
designated as subversive by the at
torney general. Equally so, it would
make it a crime for any individual
to join such an organization or con-
tribute funds to it if he is employed
in any plant or factory which has a
contract with the United States gov
eminent or any agency of the gov
eminent for the manufacture or
production of arms, armament, am
munitions, OF parts there
of.
1t would be equally criminal for
any federal employee or any individ-
ual employed in plant having such
contract to advise, counsel, or urge
another individual to become a men,
Der of or contribute to any such
organization.

severely criticises Congressman Marcantonio
(ALP, N.Y. for his insistence on outright
repeal of Taft-Hartley. From the NAM such
criticism would not be unexpected but
from an organization that purportedly rep
resents six million members of labor, and
has for two years castigated everybody and
everything connected with Taft-Hartley, such
an outburst comes as surprise.
