Drum Can't Take
Beating By Desi

HOLLYWOOD - When
Arnaz unleashes the full
fury of his pounding hands
on a Cuban congo drum,
something's got to give
and it's usually the skin of
the drum.
In his latest picture for
Columbia, Holiday In Ha-
vana," Desi goes to town
on number, THE Arnaz
JAM" which he wrote es-
pecially for the picture. 1t
is wild, savage number
and Desi resembles a whirl-
ing dervish as he pounds
the congo drum at an in
credible pace.
1t took four drums to get
through the sequence and
when it was done, a big
sigh of relief came from
producer Ted Richmond.

During this fight over the basing point sys-

Johnson, who had been fighting on the side of
the corporations, saw that his nomination would
strengthen the anti-basing point forces on the
Federal Trade Commission. He has been block
ing the Carson nomination for more than two
months by failing even to appoint subcom-
mttee to consider the nomination.
Actually, Carson has never been directly
involved in the fight over the basing point
system. But his whole record is opposed to
monopoly and friendly to consumer interests.
Big business knows that in this fight Carson
could not possibly be on any side other than
the public's - which means against big ous-
ness.
This is a battle in which labor has very
vital interest. Every consumer, every average
citizen has an interest in seeing that Carson
is confirmed by the Senate to strengthen the
weakened Federal Trade Commission The no.
mination will not be confirmed unless the pub
lie demands it - because the special interests
are fighting Carson hard Union men should
write to Chairman Johnson and demand action
on the Carson nomination before it is too late
This battle may decide the fate of the anti

Ne Jobs Today

WYE WISH the CIO News had been
w wrong when it said many months
ago that the nation was heading toward
a serious unemployment problem
Well the problem is here. To-Day
Right in our laps.
Perhaps it isn't critical yet from ma
tional economic standpoint-but It's serl-
Gus enough to warrant lot of real soul
searching by leaders of industry, business
and government.
It isn't enough for these leaders to
dodge the issue by saying that we're
merely going through period OF neces-
sary economic readjustment."
They should face the issue squarely,
grab the problem by the scruff OF its neck
and try to work out a solution before we
hit the skids that lead to depression.
This. of course, would mean industry
and business would have to alter some
of their methods and toss some OF their
pet theories into the wastebasket. And 1T
would mean that Congressional leaders
would face up to their responsibilities to
those who become jobless through no
fault of their own.
Maybe that's asking for lot-but it
would be little in comparison with the
disastrous consequences of a major de-
preston.
One of the first steps toward solving
a problem is to learn what created it -
so let's see what we find in the economic
picture.
