BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Sept. 14.-An an
cient gentleman from Peru has
arrived in this country. It's
probably his first trip here because
he's about 5000 years old.
He's a mummy. the first the
Peruvian government ever has
permitted to leave that country.
His destination is the Peruvian
Embassy in Washington and then
the American Museum of Natural
History in New York.
Pedro Rojas, an artist, arrived
with the mummy. The Peruvian
government commissioned Mr..
Rojas to paint the mummy when
it is removed from its wrappings.
The mummy. tightly bound in
heavy burlap over brightly covered
wrappings. was dug up from 18
feet of soil near Pisco, Peru, In
1927,

Studies Testimony
In Hawaiian Strike

testimony on Hawaii's 54-day
longshore strike. II viii make its
recommendation for a settlement

June 20.
The five-man board heard final
arguments yesterday by spokes-
men for waterfront employers
and 1000 striking stevedores Of
the CIO international Long
shoremen's and Warehousemen' s
Union. Neither side will be bound
by the boards recommendation.
Union Demands Support.
Louis Goldblatt union spokes-
man, told the fact finders they
are honor bound" to uphold the
IWU demand for a wage In
crease Of 80 cents an hour. This
would raise the hourly pay to
$l.72 and restore the old differen-
tial of 10 cents under the West
Coast scale.
James p. Biaisdell, employer
spokesman, said the boards re-
sponsibility lis to find the facts
and report them to the Governor
along with its recommendation

Much Of the final session was
loaded with charges and counter
charges. When the firing was
over, Board Chairman James L.
Coke announced that Acting Gov.
Oren e. Long had postponed the
deadline for the report until June
20. Gov. Stainback's original in
structions were that the board
should report today.
Calls for Equal Pay.
The board heard the union press
its demand for equal pay for
equal work." Mr.. Goldblatt said
there had been no evidence to re-
fute his contention that Hawaii
longshoremen work harder and get
less pay than any in the country.
Mr.. Blaisdell said he recognizes
that stevedore productivity here
Is higher than on the West Coast

Unions. The only answer of Industry which
poses as the protector OF individual rights. is e

HOUSING AND RENT CONTROL

The Wagner-E llender-Taft long-range housing
program passed by the Senate in the 80th Con-
gress but hit a snag in the House as a result Of or
ganized pressure from the real estate lobbies.
Advantage should be taken of the extensive
hearings on this bill during the last session to
enact this bill quickly.
A bill Of this type is a step in the right direc-
ton but will not provide immediate relief for a
large section of the homeless, particularly in
low-income groups. 1t should be supplemented
with legislation on slum clearance and to pro-
vide homes Immediately for workers families
at prices they can pay.
With the housing shortage as severe today
as ever, the Rent Control law, expiring April l.,
must be continued.

WHAT CAUSES HIGH PRICES?

In Washington, the Republican and Southern
reactionary watch-dogs Of Big. Business are
growing ominously at labor's program to repeal
the Taft Hartley Act and place restraints on
soaring prices and profits. Meanwhile the rag
ing fires of initiation continue to threaten the
national economy, while the Iaft-Hartley Act
threatens the very existence OF organized labor.
Even though financial reports reveal that cor
porate profits for l948 already are looming
above the astounding figures Of l947, the Spe-
cial Session of Congress refuse. to consider an
Excess Profits Tax. Even though, according to
the latest release of the federal Reserve Board,
% per cent Of the American people now are Nv
ing above their means and out Of accumulated
savings, the Observation-Disclosures Congress re
fused to consider any plan for rolling back prices
to reasonable levels. Even though millions OF
additional Americans in the lower income brack-
cts, who have no savings from which to draw,
admittedly are ill-clothed, ill-housed, ill-fed, the
watchdogs Of Big Business refused to raise the
minimum wage. or allow an adequate housing
program to come up for a vote.
Management claims that high prices are due
directly to demands for wage boosts. Here are
some figures to refute this. The Steel Trust
which raised wages by $50 million followed
with price increases Of more than $3.50 million;
General Motors which raised wages SIS million;
WHY'S Overland with a % per cent rise in gross
sales over l947, announced a 70 per cent in
crease in net profits.

YOU CAN JUDGE A MAN BY THE
ENEMIES HE MAKES

The only surprising part of it is that it didn't
begin sooner. But, the campaign to smear Sec
rotary of Labor Maurice Tobin has finally gotten
off to an inky start. The Saturday Evening Post,
that slick mixture of fact and fiction, is setting
the pace.
Mr.. Tobin's job as Secretary of Labor, as laid
down by law, is to foster, promote and develop
the welfare of the wage earners Of the United
States, and to advance the opportunities for prof
liable employment.
After the new Secretary got to Washington last
fall and heard firsl-hand how the Taft-Hartley
Act was being used, he decided that the best
thing he could do to foster, promote and devel-
op the welfare of wage earners, was to cam
paign for repeal of that law. Pretty soon, he
began appearing publicly at union conventions
and on the radio explaining why the Taft-Hartley
Act must go.
Actually, Mr.. Tobin in his field is doing ex-
actly what the Secretary Of Agriculture does for
farmers, what the Secretary Of Commerce does
for business.
Perhaps because the new Secretary is doing his
lob effectively, the Saturday Evening Post has
singled him out for attack, accusing him of be-
coming a rubber stamp for the labor move
ment.
1t may not be wholly coincidence that the edi-
tors of the Saturday Evening Post are confessed
~partisans of the Taft-Hartley law. They have
published long articles apologizing for that Act
and, just as many times, they have refused to
publish labor's side OF the story. In turning down

BUDGET SHOWS WHERE IT GOES

The Federal budget for the upcoming year
may be a dull and pondcrous document which
few persons will read, but it's a real eye-opener
for those who do not know where the money
comes from or where it goes.
Under the budget proposal individuals, through
direct taxes, would pay 43c Of each 81 Uncle
Sam collects. Direct taxes on corporations
would produce 28c, excise taxes loc, customs
and other existing taxes SC and new taxes &c.
How the money would be spent makes an
even more interesting story.
National defense would require SAC of each
81, International affairs l6c, veterans affairs DC,
interest on the national debt Sc, social welfare.
health and security measures &c, and all other
government activities SC.
This means national defense and international
affairs, which are closely related, would take
exactly half Of each tax dollar. Veterans affairs,
also closely related, would bring the amount to
nearly two-thirds.
The thing which sticks out like a bandaged
(but small) thumb is the amount for social well
fare, health and security-6c. This is less than
half the amount sought for interest on the ma
tional debt and less than one-fifth the amount
that would be spent on national defense.
Ii is not our purpose here to quarrel with those
who determine how much will be spent to pro-
tect the nation, care of war veterans and play
The vitality important game OF world politics.
But we do intend to point out that the world
is really in a mess when a government plans to
spend more than 10 times as much for military
and allied activities as for social welfare, health
and domestic security.

ONE OR TWO

Things really move rapidly in this big country
of ours.
Why. it was only 90 days or so ago that the
Columnists and commentators were devoting a
lot Of attention to the new teeth" that would be
put in the Taft-Hartley Law after Dewey be-
came president.
Now they re discussing the methods by which
the old teeth will be pulled.
The procedure suggested by labor is simple.
The Taft-Hartley amendments would be re-
pealed and the Wagner Act would be reinsti-
tu,cd. Then new amendments-if any are re
quircd-would be added.
This is preferred by labor over the 'one-pack-
age deal which some Congressman are pushing.
The single package might easily open the way
to a long delay and keep TIL on the statute
books for months. 1t also would give TIL ad-
vocatcs an advantage they don't deserve in light
Of last November's election returns.
Labor is merely asking for a reversal of the
procedure which was used to create TIL. Con-
grcss started with the Wagner Act as the basis
Of discussion. Labor would like for the Wagner
Act to again be used as the basis Of discussion
for any future labor amendments.
Organized labor long ago declared TIL was
unfair and unavoidable. The Democratic Party
and its presidential candidate made repeal Of
TIL one Of the big planks in their campaign plat
form.
The Nov. 2 election results were as much a
mandate for Congress to repeal TIL as Congress
is likely to get on any subject.
Consequently, Congress should follow a pro-
cedure which will bring about the best results in
the shortest possible time. The first step should
be outright repeal of TIL and restoration Of the
Wagner Act.
