Edward j. Sullivan, writing in
the Stamp Wholesaler, raises the
question: who is to decide what
stamps a collector should coll
lect?" He deplores the boycott Of
the postal issues Of Soviet Russia
and her satellites and asks:
What about the :. collectors al
ready specializing in the stamps
of these countries; are they
suddenly to find themselves and
their stamps philatelic outcasts?"
The same problem developed in
1885 or thereabouts regarding the
postal emissions Of Nazi Germany
At that time some collectors quit
collecting German stamps, some
continued. The present boycott
Of the issues of Russia and her
dependencies arises from the fact
that the Soviets seek American
dollars and deliberately are man
ufacturing stamps for the phila-
telic market in order to obtain
thern-stampS which are not IN
tended for domestic use but only
for. export.

pressly approves slave-driver tao.
tics to make Negroes work.
On the following page (1192)
Denham reports that when Clan
ton fired one Negro worker and
told the gang that "if it did not
give him better work he would
fire them all and hire new ones"
another Negro worker laughed.
When Clsnton heard this he fired
the man who laughed. Denham ap-
proved the firing, saying, 1T
was entirely a disciplinary matter
and for cause.
Denham stated Up. 11S7) that
close and intimate contact with
the Negro has taught the white
Overseers to recognize when a
Negro is lying, Notwithstanding
that the formula upon which
such recognition Is based ap-
pears to be indescribabIe."
On page 1888 Denham reports
the testimony of a Negro worker
whose white boss (Roy) was
questioning him about attending a
fish fry given by the union: And
he asked me did I go to the fish
fry, and told him Yes SIR and
he said, Well, next time you go to
a fish fry, you see me- says,
Well, boss, I didn't think I had to
see you to go to a fish fry" and
he slapped my jaws and showed
me around and kicked me, and SO
1 ran off," The worker was then
asked II he was afraid of his boss.
He replied: "Oh, I would say that
I was afraid of him all right, on
my job out there, If he tells me to
do anything-When he tells me to
do anything, I confine myself to
that, 1 was afraid q him all right,
because he was my boss"
Denham never protested this
brutality in his report, and never
referred to 1t as creating a con-
slant state Of terror. He found
some Of the Negro workers had
been discharged because of union
activities and recommended their
reinstatement and back pay, but
said nothing about the constant
abuse of the Negro workers as
constituting a steady reign of
terror.
Denham's anti Negro express
sions in the Phelps case were
sharply criticized by some of his
associates, but he never modified
them.
This is a pen-plcture Of the Gen.
eral Counsel of the National Labor
Relations Board, using his own
words. By every standard he is
unfit to hold any office under the
Fair Deal program.

DuL uO law - DSlJeF imam
key man in the administration Of
the National Labor Relations Act
is Robert N. Denham, General
Counsel to the National Labor Re-
lations Board. Under the Taft
Hartley revision of the original
Wagner National Labor Relations
Act, the General Counsel has full
and exclusive control over all in
designations Of complaints and ex-
elusive power Of prosecuting al
legged violations of the Act. There
is no power in Government to
force the General Counsel to pro-
secute II he is unwilling to do 50;
and If he is unwilling to prosecute,
there is no way for the worker to
get his case before the National
Labor Relations Board. Denham
has more power than a Gar.
Denham has been accused Of
being both anti-Sematic and
i.NegrO. He is definitely anti
Negro.
Denham is 81 years old, born in
Missouri; graduated LII. B. from
the University Of Missouri in 1907
and took his masters degree at
the University Of Michigan. He
practised law a short while in st.
Louis, then spent two years in
Texas. From Texas he moved to
the State of Washington. He saw
service in World War I as an Of
ficer in the air force, commanding
lumber jacks in the timber
country of Oregon. After World
War 1 he ran a sugar plantation
in Puerto Rico, a sheep ranch in
Idaho, cotton plantations in Mis-
sissippi, and had business inter-
ests in Florida, Texas and North
Carolina.
His contacts with Negroes
have been limited almost to a
bOss.wOrher relationship, and
his attitude toward them follows
the plantation pattern.
Prior to his appointment as
General Counsel, Denham was a
trial examiner for the National
Labor Relations Board. The trial
examiner goes out in the states
and holds hearings on alleged
violations Of the National Labor
Relations Act, and makes findings
and recommendations to the en-
tire Board.
In 1912 Denham acted as trial
examiner in the famous Henry X.
Phelps, Jr., trustee case. (45 MI.
RIB. case 1881 involving the dis
charge of certain white and Negro
workers in a Louisiana oil refinery
for union activities. Denham's
own report on the case is the best
proof of his anti-Negro bias. The
employer did not want the CLIO.
union in the plant, and partlcu-
larry opposed the organization of
the Negro workers.
On page 1870 Denham reports
Clanton, a white boss over Negro
labor at the plant, speaking to a
Negro worker as follows: How
come you amt my niger any
more? -. am not mad with you
because you went up there and
testified against me or anything
like that. I know you all got up
there and them white folks doped
you all up and got you to say all
those things" Denham comment
ed: This latter appears to be a
sample of the manner in which
Clanton in particular has ap-
preached the Negroes who are now
working, 1t is the Southern over
seers way of controlling their
Negroes and of warning them
against q given line of conduct"
Denham accepts this as normal.
On the next page (1191) Den
ham says: 1T was Clanton's job
to push the Negro crew and a
