"The Lob'rinq Mountain ="

"The lab'ring mountain scarce brings
forth a mouse" So goes the ancient ieg-

Monday evening when it ballotted twenty
seven times only to find itself deadlocked
on the simple issue of filling the vacancy
created by the resignation of former Coun'
Gilman Tom Burke, who, but for his un-
fortunate illness, would even now be IN
Washington representing us in Congress-
We use the word simple" adViseoiy'
ONLY our enemies would attempt to create
the impression that City Council is faced
with "hard" problem.
Is it not true, gentlemen OF City Coun'
ell that Tom Burke has always been
"labor man" within your ranks? is II
not true that his elections to City Council
and before that to the General Assembly,
and on last Nov. to the U. ). Congress
was most ardently promoted and insured
if YOU please, by Organized Labor!
And if that be true, why hunt else
where so feverishly for someone to take
his nlace? Isn't it only decent and in line
with the ethics of our political heritage
if we have any ethics in pOlitics-to I'LL
that vacancy with someone from the ranks
of Organized Labor?
The vast majority of Labor in this Com

Committee, has nominated its candidate
for this Job. Later, upon the request oil
some of you gentlemen, we Obliged ny

Do Dogs Growl
At You!
BY RUTH TAYLOR

Ever notice how much nicer your dog is
than the dog next door? Your neighbor's dog
is a mean critter, and you hurry past the lawn
where he is chained He growls at you, so you
don't like him. But-one of the reasons he
growls at you is because he senses your dis
like. Your step sounds as though you were
afraid, and there is little of the bully in the
best of us-even the best of dogs
On the other hand, your own dog is
mighty fine, intelligent animal-because he
runs to greet you and makes fuss over you
flattering your ego. He knows you like him.
and a dog is always ready to answer friendli
ness with friendship.
So it is with the people you meet. Take my
own case l used to dread speaking in public
! wasn't just timid. l was plain scared of my
audience. In that last glance over what I
planned to say, I always found innumerable
things was sure would be criticized. But I've
found cure for stage fright. At the last mo-
ment remind myself that they wouldn't have
asked me to speak if they had not wanted to
hear me! have never been really afraid since,
though do find myself starting out by talking
to anyone in the audience who smiles at me-
fortunately there is always at least one
friendly soul among each crowd)
Most of the time how people feel about you
is predetermined by how you feel about them
Like your dog, they will greet friendship with
friendship-but also. like your neighbor's dog
they will snarl if they think you are afraid,
or fight back If you are militant

The SIsf Con Turn The Tide

The Goth Congress-labeled the WORST
in our history" by President Truman
rendered magnificent service to the huge
power lobbies during its existence. 1t not
only reduced the Interior Departments
appropriation for substatiOnS and pubic
power transmission lines by SIG million,
but il also Topped off S4 million which was
requested for vital iva steam plant
More than that il blocked action on the
proposed Missouri Valley Authority, the
Columbia Valley Authority and the st.
Lawrence Seaway project.
And why not. The National Association
of Electric Companies spent S22S,OOO for
lobbying purposes during the first nine
months of 1948. And the year before that
the same outfit pumped S256,OOO into
their high powered lobbying activities.
Nor can anyone deny that large share OF
the $4,000 the Chamber of Commerce
spent during the first nine months of last
year also went for the same purpose. The
National Reclamation Association spent
$4,000 in 1947. How much they spent in
194S is as yet unknown.
The directing genius behind this enOr-
nous drive against the benefits of Public
Power is Mr.. Purcell l.. Smith, admittedly
the highest paid lobbyist in Washington.
Mr.. Smith receives S65,O0O a year from
the National Association of Electrical
Companies.
"You have been crudely and wickedly
cheated by the power lobby in Washing
ton, operating through the SOth Congress-"
declared President Truman.
How right he is II is up to us, Organ
ized Labor and the public generally, to
see to il that this Infamous trend is killed
by the Slst Congress. Let Congress serve
the People and not the profit hungry
power trusts.

Women's News
And Views
BY Odessa Overy
Secretary Women's Bureau
Region 2-B

With the holidays over, and
everybody gone back to hiber-
nation, things seem to have
quieted down and the same old
trend is predcminating. Be
ginning this week the theatre
guild will show two movies on
Saturday instead of the usual
one. Children enjoy this week
ly enter r tainment and the
crow are overwhelming.
Therefore there will be a show
ing at 1890 and at 1870 to ac-
commodate the children of our
local IL members. SO don't
forget kiddies that if you can't
make it for the first showing
then you still have the same
chance by being here at 1870
for the second showing.
The Women's Choral So
ciety of Local IL have an in
vitation to entertain at the
State CIO Convention. Wheth-
er all of the girls that are elig-
able to go will 60, is another
story. We have 26 girls that
participate regularly in our
get-to-gether singing group,
which isn't bad considering
the activity that most of these
particular girls have a hand
in. OF course the women do not
have the opportunities the men
have in the unions nor in any
other organization. The women
must work for every penny
they get.
They must work for the rec
ognition that they receive, and
nothing is handed to the
women on a golden platter as
1t is to some of the men that
know. The women have a big
battle ahead of them when it
comes to equality. We have
been striving for equality for
a long period and have gained
so little that it just goes to
show that we must fight all
the harder to make these peo-
pie see that women have as
much brains as the men and
that they would like the OPP
portunity to prove it to the
men. l do not think that we
have as many fourflushers in
the women's branch of the un-
ion as we do in the male branch
of the unioh. The women lay
all of their cards on the table.
and let you know just where
they stand, We don't want all
OF the gravy but we want our
share, The girls tell me, that
they are willing to give but
they also wish to receive, in
equal portants.
Our educational course be-
gan this week with a very
good turn out. These classes
are held every Thursday eve
ming at 1880 p. m. in parlor
"H' on the third floor in the
local. Our State Educational
Director, Jack Holt will pre-
side over these get-to-gathers
and tries to make these meet
ings as interesting as possible.
The purpose of these classes
is to educate the women to the
point where they will be able
to stand up aside of the men
and be classed as their equal.
] urge that all of the girls who
can possibly get away on
Thursday evenings to do so. 1t
Is for your welfare and that is
what some of us are harping
about. You must attend at
least six out of the eight
classes in order to be eligible
for a diploma, which will be
awarded at a meeting follow
ing the conclusion of the
course.
We would like to see all of
the delegates that attended
our Women's conference last
October Is and 10 to attend
these classes, because 1t was

servations made by French
diplomat, the Marquis de Custine
10 years ago:
"An immense inordinate ambi-
ton Of the kind which can take
root only in the soul Of an op-
pressed people and be nourished
only on the misery Of an entire
country is now astir in the hearts
Of the Russians. This essentially
aggressive nation lives in a state
of submissiveness SO degrading
that it seems to be expiating in
advance, at home, its expectations
of tyranny over other men. The
glory and the booty to which the
Russian looks forward turn his
thoughts from the shame to
which he is being subjected.
This kneeling slave fills his dreams
with visions Of world domination.
Tells Of Spy System.
Custine's report also describes
an internal espionage system, q
government conviction that all
foreigners are spies, and an. Iron
Curtain"
I'm Russia to converse Is to
conspire; to think is to revolt.
This Byzantine government. anc
indeed all of Russia, have always
looked upon the diplomatic corps
and Westerners as envious and
malevolent spies. The more ]
see of Russia the more approve
of the czars' forbidding Russians
to travel abroad and making &C
cess to Russia difficult for foreign
ers. The Russian political sys-
tenn would not stand out for
twenty years against communica-
ton between Russia and the
West"
Other European observers Of a
century ago saw also fearsome
strength, despite its degradation
in the Russian system. Among
these was Emil Montegut. He
wrote:

Impressively the general reviews
the wonderful ways men have de-
veloped, of killing one another
since David .downed Goliath with
a slingshot. Time had outmoded
them all, he said, the single COM
bat, the wars between professional
armies, the duels OF chivalry.
Those duels reminded him OF a
story which carried him abruptly
to the present.
Two quarreling officers not too
long since decided they would set
tie their affair by dueling. the
general said, and their command
ing officer agreed, provided they
would let him fix the rules. The
rules weres that each Of the con-
testants should be armed with a
loaded pistol which he must place
at the heart of his foe. Then both
might fire when ready. 1t seems to
Gen. Macarthur that "the world"
is about in this position; willy
nilly, 1t must fight by such rules.
Talks of Common Problem.
Now. the general said, with
atomic energy we possess the
means to destroy all Of US at once,
to ruin civilization and return man
to caves to start all over again.
The most ardent atomic scientist
could not improve upon the Mac
Arthur view Of world which does
not grasp this fact.
He is careful not to detail his
indictment by names either Of ma
tions or of persons. He talks OF
people, the human race, the prob
lem common to US all.
Gen. Macarthur is a hard man
to interrupt. Efforts to discover If
he felt his country was doing less
than it could, If American leader
ship was, in his opinion, at fault,
if there were ways untried Of al
tering Russia's direction-all these
we're smothered In an eloquent and
indeed virtually unanswerable out
line Of the impasse faced by man
today.
It Is interesting that this should
be the man regarded by liberals
at home with suspicion. put for
ward In United States politics by
men identified with United States
nationalism and by the atomic iso-
who visualize an America
entrenched behind its own borders
and lobbing atomic bombs across
the world at anyone who annoys

Finally, century ago, Custine

the prelude to the annexation of
