John Martin, who fatally
shot and killed Mrs. Catherine
Hendricks on Sunday evening,
Decembed 10, 1948, has been
declared insane, together with
seven other persons, after san
ity hearings by the District
Court yesterday. Martin was
represented by Attorney R. H.
Amphlett Leader.
Mr.. Leader claimed that
Martin was senile and could
not therefore be tried on a 1st
degree murder charge, which
was pending against him.
Martin was examined by a
board which included the Ad-
ministrator for st. Croix, the
Chief Municipal Physician, &
Leonard Hill. Following their
report Judge Moore ruled that
he should be confined as in
sane and held until transfer to
st. Elizabeth's Hospital in
Washington could be effected.
Attorney William Moorhead
was appointed by the Court to
represent the other cases. They
include Elizabeth Williams,
Helena Naughton, Joseph Glib
bons, Keith Bishop, Patrick

Dramatic expression of the con-
ference's concern for the condi-
tions of the workers in backward
nations came when the delegates
rose and cheered the entry OF a
Chinese representative.
Free labor's scorn for non-Com-
munist totalitarian regimes was
vividly demonstrated when a clash
took place between a delegate from
the Peron-sponsored Argentine
General Federation of Labor, and
Jacinto Oddone, exiled head of in
dependent unions. Peron's friend
declared that he would withdraw
if Oddone was seated. The inde-

Show Me- State
RepeaIs Little
Taft-HartIey Act

Jefferson City, Mo. (LPA)-One
of the biggest victories of 1949 on
the state legislative fronts has
been scored in President Truman's
home state.
Democrats captured control Of
both branches Of the legislature
last November-and one of their
major pledges was repeal of Miss
ouri's "little Taft Hartley Act" the
Madison law, which places many
restrictions on the right to strike
and on other labor activities.
In the showdown, the Democrats
almost to man fulfilled the
party's pledge and voted for re-
peal in both the House and Senate.
Republicans in the latter cham
Der staged a desperate all-night
filibuster in 90 to 100-degree heat,
in an effort to stave off repeal, but
finally gave up, and the repeal bill
went through by an 18 to IL vote.
In the House it passed more easily.
Senate COP leaders raised a cry
about "labor bosses m k in g
threats, but Senator Anthony
Webbe, st. Louis Democrat, answ-
cred for his party by declaring:
"The people of Missouri, like the
rest of America, elected those OPP
posed to this type of legislation
and we're bound to redeem our
promise to the voters"

! NLRB Sanctions
Employers Rafting
On TWUA Contract

Washington (LPA)-A divided
NLRB last week permitted a textile
firm to welch on its contract with
the Textile Workers Union of Am
erica.
The contract had a no-strike
clause which employees of the
United Elastic Corp. of Lowell
Mass, disregarded when they went
on a wildcat strike in 1947. The
company refused to bargain with
TWUA while the men were out,
and since has declined to discuss
the issues of the strike.
NLRB member John Houston,
who dissented from the majority
opinion in the case, pointed out
that TWUA representatives early
in the strike tried to persuade the
men to return to work. Their eff
forts were unsuccessful, largely
due to the company's stiff-necked
attitude.
Members James J. Reynolds,
Abe Murdoch and ]. Copeland
Gray, on the other hand, claimed
that TWUA's efforts to end the
strike weren't vigorous enough.
Chairman Paul Herzog didn't par
ticipate in the judgement.
A previous trial examiners re-
port on the case found the COM
pany guilty of a number of unfair
labor practices-which the boards
majority ignored in its ruling. 1t
admitted, however, that "an accu-
mutation of unsettled grievances"
caused the strike which it is per-
mitting the company to use as an
alibi for welching on it's obligation
to bargain with TWUA.
In vigorous commentary on his
colleagues ruling, Houston pointed
out that the decision gives "dissid-
ent employees and collusive en-
ployers a ready device to subvert
honest collective bargaining"
He said that the board is going
even further than does the Taft
Hartley law when it holds union
"liable for the acts of its members
solely by reason of their member

Big Business Cigar
Store Bucks Phony

Chicago OPA)-Even a press
agent can't get away with every
thing-not even a press agent
backed by the millions in corporate
interests which are trying to un-
dermine cooperatives.
The "pho1g buck" of the Natl
Tax Equality Association, anti-co-
op lobby, has been outlawed. Not
only that, but the plates from
which the. bogus bills were printed
have been .confscated by the US
Secret Service.
Since somewhere between ~ and
so million of the bills were printed,
however, there will be plenty of
them around for some time.
"Give them to the kids--as many
as they want" the NTEA urged in
sending out this false propaganda.
Garry a big roll yourself and pass
them out to friends and associ-
ates."
At House Appropriation Commit
tee hearings in Washington in
1947, NTEA witnesses were pro-
tected by friendly politicians when
efforts were made to learn where
they got their money.
The "phoney bucks" are another
effort to spread the false claim
that cooperatives do not pay taxes
as do private enterprise" manu-
facturers and retailers. Actually all
consumer co-ops and half of the
farmers producer co-ops pay all
taxes paid by any other business.
Instead Of showing any interest
in the real problems Of "tax equal
ity" the Natl Tax Equality Asso-
citation confines its activities to
spreading lies about the co-ops.

Dixiecrats Marked

Washington (LPA)-When the

lam Green issued the following
statement:
Labor is tremendously disap.

yesterday to retain anti-strike in.
functions. That action makes the
pending legislation utterly unac-
ceptable to the American Fedora
tion of Labor. 1t will be useless
and a waste of time so far as we
are concerned, to try to make the
rest of the Taft bill more pala-
table. Labor will never swallow
the injunction.
"This is not the end of labor's
fight to repeal the Taft Hartley
act. 1t is only the beginning. We
are now making a fresh start, with
our sights trained on the 1850 cleo
tion campaign, and with all our
energies concentrated on the de-
feat of the reactionaries from both
parties who teamed together in
yesterdays roll-call vote to keep
the threat of court injunctions
over labor's head.
