YOU'VE often heard conservative radio COM
mentators scream about the activities OF
the powerful labor lobby" in Washington.
It's also a favorite theme of anti-union edi-
toral writers and columnists.
People who know the Washington scene
have always known the story about the "over-
whelming labor lobby" was drawn as bogey-
man to frighten people out across the nation.
Now come some solid facts to destroy the myth
completely.
Congressional Quarterly, private nom
partisan Washington research agency has
been doing some heavy studying of lobby re-
ports filed with Congress. The facts;
X During first half of 1949 registered
lobby expenditures totaled $4O98,653
X The labor lobby"-CIO, AFL. railway
brotherhoods, independent unons-spent just

90 of the total
Facts confirm long held belief of CIO leg

gress comes from the folks back home-who
write letters. pass resolutions, buttonhole their
legislators, and most important, vote.
Some notes from the corporation lobby re-
ports:

other health proposals) spent $508, ,397; Ma

The Job Situation

WE'RE IN the midst of a period OF
VVgreat prosperity, so the experts say
and vet the latest figurse show more than
four million Americans are unemployed.
And nine million or more persons are
working only part time-many of them
not more than 20 hours week
Ifyou believe what some of the experts
saw and the business writer's concoct then
the situation isn't serious. It's nothing
more than normal readjustment."
But if you could talk with the four
million without jobs and the nine or more
million with part-time Jobs you'd hear an
entfrey different story.
Well 60 along with the viewpoint OF
those whose source of income has disap-
peared through no fault of their own. The
situation is serious and it demands our
attention.
Some of our leading economists say
employment will increase somewhat be-
tween now and fall as inventories are
built up, which is probably true
But there have been no real changes
in the factors which brought about the
present situation. 1t began developing
when prices and profits started increasing
faster than wages.
Consumer purchasing power has now
reached a dangerously low point and one
of two things must occur if we're to avoid
real r u b J. e. Prices must be reduced
sharply or wages must be increased.
But, you say, prices have been coming
down, haven't they? Yes, they have. Be-
tween 1889 and last August they increased
about 70ao. Since last August they have
decreased about 80.
Some of our major industries are in
excellent position to hike wages and
bolster consumer purchasing power.
Unfortunately, they at present are TAX
ing the same short-sighted position they
did when they started showing us into
the present mess.
And the unions know that much more
than the immediate future of their own
members is involved in current wage
drives That's why they're prepared to
fight for what they believe to be right and
desirable.

American medicine for purposes of poll

And in an address prepared for de-
