before the committee. It can be
deduced that in his testimony re-
for the Regional Loyalty Board
he admitted meeting Miss Bent
ley at various spots away from
his Office, but denied ne ever gave
her any secret information.
The Regional Board also pre-
sumably was told by Mr.. Reming-
ton that he first met Miss Bentley
at the home Of his mother in law,
whom he considered q Commun-
iSt.
The board members. took cog
nizance Of the fact the country
was at war at the time and Mr..
Remington was a Government
official. They considered the re-
ports, including what Miss Bent
ley told the FB1. But it presun1-
ably was Mr.. Rem,ngton's own
admissions # his n eetines with
Miss Bentley and the circum-
stances Of those meetings In war
tipe that led the board to believe
it could reasonably conclude Mr..
Remington should not continue to
hold a Government job.
Appealed to Review Board.
Mr.. Remington appealed to the
review board. This group had
before it the hearings and recon-
mendatior1s of the regional board
and Miss Bentley's and Mr.. Rem
1ngton's testimony before the
Senate subcommittee. The review
group heard Mr.. Remington read
his attorneys brief and got state
ments from officials with whom
he worked over the past six years.
The review group considered
the fact that an FBI report in
1942 had cleared Mr.. Remington
and that when Miss Bentley told
her story to the FBI in l945, no
prosecution Of Miss Bentley or
Mr.. Remington ensued.
The review group, like the
regional board, took note that
this country was at war in 1912,
but the review officials doubtless
looked at it from the angle that
in 1912 Russia was an ally whom
everybody hoped would stay in the
war.
Mr.. Remington told reporters
that when he met Miss Bentley
he was only "a years old and

Reversal Of the decision to bal

speculation as to how one group
Of discerning citizens could ques-
ton a mans loyalty and another
group of equally substantial citi-
zens clear his name.
The fourth regional loyalty

Elizabeth T. Bentley. an avowed

Remington that it concluded the

Chairman Seth Richardson of
the review group refused to discuss
the case. Asked specifically. how

Bentley to appear on invitation
before the review board had any
effect on its decision. MIR. Rich
ardson replied:
Miss Bentley's failure to ap-

Equality Of Boards Cited.
Mr.. Richardson also observed
that he had as high regard for
the members Of the regional board
as he did for the panels Of his
own board and considered them

of prejudice and impartial atti-
tude.
That left this question: Did the
review board get some new evi-
dence or was the reversed decision

tions of the same set Of facts?

Flanders Unit Urges
Farm-Labor-Indust
Session for Stability
By the Asseeiofsd Press

A Senate-House Economic sub:
committee came out unanimously
yesterday in favor Of a labor.
management-agriculture confer.
ence aimed at promoting more
stable economic conditions"
The subcommittee indorsed the
idea in an Introductory statement
put out belatedly to go with a
report on it's recent study of busi-
ness profits. The report itself
simply a compilation of testimony
at the hearings. was made public
several weeks ago.
The survey was made during
closing days of the Republican,
controlled S0thf Congress. The
subcommittee was headed by Sen
ator Flanders. Republican. of Ver-
mont.
Seen As Imitation Check.
In its statement yesterday the
group said:
Several witnesses suggested
that a conference between rep
resentatives of labor, agriculture
and management should be held,
for the purpose of establishing
principles of economic statesman
ship. to which these great groups
in our national economy would
subscribe.
1T is hoped that guidance by
these principles might bringing in
f1ationary pressures under con-
troll. and result in more stable
economic conditions.
"The subcommittee is unani-
mously in favor Of carrying out
this idea" >--,g---
Besides Senator Flanders, the
statement was signed by Senator's
Watkins, Republican, Of Utah,
and O'Mahoney, Democrat of
Wyoming, and by Representatives
Wolcott, Republican, Of Michigan,
Herter. Republican. of Massachu-
sets, Patman. Democrat, of Texas,
and Huber, Democrat, of Ohio.
Profit Distribution Cut.
The subcommittee statement
said that in 1899 about rs per cent
OF corporate profits after taxes
were distributed to stockholders as
dividends. The group added:
In 1947. however, less than 40
per cent Of such profits were dis
tributed in the form of dividends.
THE profits of business, judged
on the cases presented, seem to
be going back into the market
place to purchase more goods and
services at higher prices. just
about as fast as these profits ac-
cumulate.
Capital investment has been
at such rapid rate, however, that
some Arms with the highest profit
records in history have yet judged
1t necessary to borrow, since they
found their liquid resources insult
flcient for maintaining current
business operations and for
financing what seemed to them to
be prudent plans for expanding or
improving productive equipment
for the immediate future"

Presbyterians Told

Trial Is Slap at U. 5.
By Caspor konnes
Stur Siaff Correspondent

CHICAGO, Feb. 12.-Represent-
ative Judd. Republican Of Min
nesota, tonight declared the trial
of Josef Cardinal Mindszenty was
"a direct slap and challenge to
England and the United States. "
Speaking to a meeting Of the
National Council Of Presbyterian
Men here, Representative Judd
suggested the trial was a reaction
to the individual and collective
self defense" activities of the At
lantic Pact. He warned that the
difficulties involved in such an
agreement came out Of the fact
that I'VE are challenging the
Soviet Union and might provoke
quick action now."
The conflict between Russia and
the United States goes deeper than
that of q struggle between demo-
cratic and totalitarian nations.
the Minnesotan declared.
1T is a conflict between men
who have totally different ideas
regarding the nature Of man, and
that means of God" he asserted.
"The men on the other side are
determined to destroy the values
we are living by and wipe them
out"

an illustration of how the national

DR.. Salisbury pointed out that of

Move 10 Revive Group
For Law Revision Due
TO Come Up in House

7 A move to revive the House
Committee on Revision Of the
Laws-a legal research and re-
codification unit which was killed
by the Legislative Reorganization
Act-probably will come up for
consideration this week before
the House Rules Committee.
The effort to re-establish the
group as a select committee. aparv
from the House standing COM
mittee structure. is being led by
Representative Keogh, Democrat,
of New York. He was the last
chairman of the unit. the duties
of which were absorbed by the
judiciary Cor1mittee under the
Reorganization Act.
Mr.. Keogh's resolution provid-
ing for a new Committee on Re
vision of the Laws to be named
by Speaker Rayburn has been re-
ferred to the rules group. and
the Brooklyn Representative has
asked to be heard.
The proposal probably will be
opposed by Representative Mon
roney. Democrat, of Oklahoma. II
it reaches the floor of the House.
Mr.. Monroney. a principal author
of the Reorganization Act. now
is its most vigorous defender.
Sought Superseded Books.
He hassargued repeatedly that
Congress should channel its work
through the regularly-constituted
committees and should avoid
establishing special groups.
Specifically, under Mr.. Mon
roney's reasoning, law revision
studies should be undertaken by
a subcommittee Of the Judiciary
Committee.
When in existence. the Com
mittee on Reyision of the Laws
was one of the most unobtrusive
on the House side OF the Capitol.
It's work concerned the continu-
ing effort to bring more system
to the patchwork of Federal law
enactments.
The committee searched for old
laWs-unrepealed but superseded
by later legislation-which could
De wiped from the books. It also
revised the United States and Dis
trict Codes, providing up-to-date
cross-references.
Mr.. Keogh, a lawyer, won praise
in legal circles for the work. but
it attracted little notice outside
the profession.
Sees Steady Work Required.
His reason for attempting to
revive the committee is that he
believes its aims require steady
work which cannot be assured in
the busy Judiciary Committee,
which is called on to analyze
numerous specific legislative pro-
posals.
The viewpoints of Mr.. Mon
roney and Mr.. Keogh concerning
House committees collided last
week when the House was con-
sidering continuation of the Small
Business Committee, a special
rather than a standing group
The House voted to continue it.
While Mr.. Monroney said he was
not opposing extension of this
committee, he said he hoped the
House would stop there and not
set up special committees helter-
skelter.
Mr.. Keogh. supporting con-
tinuation of the committee, said
he thought Congress should Or
ganize in the manner which
would best serve the public and
ITSELF and set up special groups
whenever they seemed desirable.
The sfate of the law revision
project has the interest of at
torneys here in particular. There
have been suggestions recently
that the District Code needs an

What Is the Reason?

The manufacturers of Toledo and public press
are trying to make you believe that because of
the action of labor and labor leaders in the To.
ledo area we are losing employment. Any per.
son who believes this, has not been out of
town. Amy town in America of any size or con.
sequence, has an unemployment problem. The
United States Government admits there are six
million unemployed in the United States. The
newspapers of Toledo say there are 10000
unemployed locally. According to government
figures then, are the five million, nine-hun.
dred-eighty-thousand unemployed because of
a requested pension plan?

Look Behind the Iron Curtain

Look Behind the Iron Curtain
look behind the iron curtain of reaction in To-
ledo. The daily press recently has attempted
to impress on the community that Toledo is
s'Bad Labor Town." Strange as it may seem the
daily press and Toledo Clearing House Associa-
ton are the only ones who have used that ex.
preston to date.
What's wrong with the UAW.CIO pension plan
in Toledo. The request that the UAW-CIO is
making i'm Toledo we think is fair. The EN-.
ployer doesn't think SO. What do you, the gen.
eral public think? We ask for $40 month,
plus Federal Old Age primary insurance bene-
fits of not less than 500 minimum. This
means, that if the Federal Government would
raise the social security benefits to 500
worker retiring would receive ST 20 per month.
The employers think this is too high. DO
YOU?
he employer nOeS nor DelcVe tndt our PEN
sion plan should be city wide. They think it
should be on an individual shop plan. Our
plan stipulates that if you acquire 10 years in
one plant, 5 years in another, 10 years in
other and 5 years in another you will have
cumulated 30 years of credit towards full re.
tirement benefits. DO YOU THINK 1T
SHOULD BE CITY.WIDE?
We want trust fund set up wherein all forces
control this fund. In other words, the employ.
er has a representative group, labor has rep.
resentative group and both parties by agree.
ment, shall select an impartial chairman. We
think this is more appropriate than having the
employer control the trust fund.- We, the un.
ion, have no desire to control it. Why DOES
THE EMPLOYER DEMAND CONTROL OF
THIS TRUST FUND?
The union specifies that during the five years
that the pension plan is in effect the Board of
Trustees can, when they deem it necessary, In.
crease the benefits but not decrease it. The
employers disagree to any increases. We think
the employer is wrong. DO YOU?
Toledo union journal. [volume] (Toledo, Ohio) 1942-current, 1949-10-28

In our plan we recommend that all employees
receive equity because of the amount of money
paid by the employer. We say there must be
some distribution of this equity if the employee
quits or retires. The employers seems to think
those having accumulated 10, Is or 20 years
of credit shall not be entitled to any equity. We
think you should. DO YOU?
We think there should be adequate health in.
surance providing death benefits, Sick bene-
fits, surgical and medical benefits and hos.
pitalization for the employee and his family
with the cash allotted to the employee enabling
him to choose his own doctor and pay his own
bills The employer is against this plan ARE
YOU?
The employer wants it mandatory for worker
to retire at 65. We say, if he is not eligible to
receive the full benefits, he should be given
the opportunity to continue employment to &C.
quITe the necessary CTcuIt IuI DCHCAiSe' AiO
employer is against this. We would like to re.
ceive the opinion of the aged on this question.
The employers in Toledo believe that there
should be Is cents an hour wage cut and no
Pension Plan. We are against this. ARE YOU?
We say an employee who becomes physically
handicapped should Immediately be entitled
to some type of retirement pension. Employer
is against it. ARE YOU?
The employers of Toledo say that the em.
ployees should pay part of this. We say that
the employer should pay it all. WHAT DO
YOU THINK?
Some of the employers believe that this trust
fund should be carried by the insurance com.
panies at cost of p cents on the dollar. Inn
partial insurance statisticians in their state.
ment are positive that the trust fund, as pro.
posed by the union, can be administered for
five cents on the dollar. Why not give the saw.
ings of % cents on every dollar to the workers
which would increase their benefits. The en-
ployers are against this. ARE YOU?
