DRAMA OF GREAT INDIAN CRISIS
"SHE WORE A YELLOW RIBBON"

Although most history books
overlook the fact. the year OF
1876 was perhaps the most cru
cial one in the annals Of the
West. That Was the year during
which General Custer and las 2G4
men were-wipe1 out Oh the banks
Of the Little Big Horn. and in
which the plains Indians, trium-
phant over their victory and in
famed by their medicine men,
planned to drop their tribal quar-
relS and unite in one great effort
to drive the white men from their
lands.
Such plan was not us hope
less Us il seems now. In the
broad strip between the SparSeIy-
settle Pacific slOpe-and line
drawn from the Dakotas down in
to Texas. there were far more In
dams than whites. And although

European Unionisfs Leading Force

In an invitation to American and
European trade unionists to in
creased participation in the Euro
pean Recovery Program in 1949,
w. Averell Hartman, U mi t d
States Special Representative to
Europe, said in Paris that the Eu-
ropean trade unionists who have
come forward not only to support,
but actively further the Marshall
Plan have become leading force
in the reconstruction of Europe.
Ambassador Hartman declared
that the trade unions have firmly
assured the success of the plan. His
statement in full said:
"The European Recovery Pro-

Apex Electrical, which normally
about 1000, laid off 300

Conference Backs
TEW Housing Bill

Washington (LPA) A strong
long-range housing bill will be ad-
vocated by the nations mayors, as
a result of a fight led by labor
backed city officials from Detroit
at the sessions here of the Ameri-
can Municipal ASSN.
At the yearly conference of the
municipalities, City Council Presi-
dent George Edwards and Mayor
Eugene Van Antwerp took the lead
in rewriting and strengthening the
cities housing demands to include
passage of the Taft-Ellender-W Wag-
ner long-range housing bill. Both
Edwards and Van Antwerp were
elected a year ago with solid labor
backing.
Getting down to specifics, the
urged that the Con-
gress be asked in the TEW bill to
provide for 81. billion in long-term
loans for local low-cost housing
projects, and special financing to
enable replacement of the "tempo-
rary" World War ii housing pro-
jects.
Congress will be asked, also, to
keep federal control over wartime
public housing projects to the ex-
tent necessary to keep them out of
the hands of spectators.

clude the school activities of boys

Enforcement Held Vital
Mrs. Paul Koenig, chairman of
the child welfare division of the
general federation, declared that
an effective program in regard to
child labor must be based on the
essential knowledge of federal and
state child labor laws. She pointed
out that such codes are useless un-
less enforced. She urged the club
women to emphasize enforcement
as vital.
"Clubwomen should work for
really important laws" she said,
especially those regarding en-
ployment of children. A permit
system that cannot be chiselled
must undergrad all efforts in this
direction.
"Our democracy is dependent
upon the kind of men and women
our children become" Mrs. Koenig
warns.

People Determined
To Win National
Health Insurance

Washington, D. C. 0LNS). -
The people "need and want" ma
.tional health insurance, the Amer
ican Federationist, official mag
azine Of the American Federation
Of Labor declares. 1t continues:
"As the recent authoritative re-
port submitted to President Tru-
man by Federal Security Admins
traitor Oscar Ewing showed, death
each year takes 325,000 Americans
who could have been saved if the
health and medical services they
required had been available to
them. This is a shocking situation.
The American people mean to have
it corrected through legislation
e S t a b lis h in g a comprehensive
health insurance program.
at is regrettable that the lead
ers Of the American Medical Asso-
citation continue to believe, at this
late hour, that the peoples insist
ent demand for health insurance
can be turned aside. The ANA, al
ready far from popular organ
ization, is now inviting the loss of
the few friends it has by announc-
ng a decision to raise a fund of
s., ,5OO,OGO, by assessing each of it's
members $25, in order to wage a
ast-ditch propaganda war against

Women's Clubs Urged To Lead Drive
For Better Child Labor Legislation

Officials of the General Federation
of Women's Clubs are urging the
10000 members to take the lead
in national campaign for improv-
ed child labor legislation.
Passage of better laws for the
protection of children against in
dustrial exploitation is one of the
most important detectives of the
nation, in the opinion of Mrs.
Leslie B. Wright, of Washington,
now legislative chairman of the
federation.
"No state" Mrs. Wright declar-
ed, "can be stronger than it's citiz-
enry. High educational standards
and protection Of young people in
industry make for future political
greatness. To safeguard the well
fare of children, to ensure oppor-
tunities for schooling, and to pro-
tect them from employment at too
early an age and under unsuitable
have long been the con-
Germ of the General Federation of
Women's Clubs"

ed chat Objectionable child labor
is the employment of boys and
girls at jobs unsuitable or unsafe
for children of their ages, or under
conditions injurious to their well
fare.

ANA Not Echoing
Views OF All MDs

New York (LPA)-The Ameri-
can Medical Association does not
echo the views of all US MDs in
its reactionary campaign against
national health insurance, a survey
prepared by the Committee for the
Nations Health last week shows.
AMA's governing body, the
House of Delegates, which ordain-
ed the $25 per doctor levy to fight
proposed health insurance legisla-
ton doesn't represent rank-and-file
physicians, CNH declared. While
half of the nations practicing
physicians are under As years of
age, $50 of the delegates are over
As, and 70%6 over 55, the liberal
organization pointed out.
CNH said that only 159o of the
ANA big-wigs are general practi-
TONERS, altho 500 of the country's
doctors are. And while 800 of our
medicos work in communities with
less than 5000 population, only
SO of the delegates are from the
small towns.
AS many as 15f6 of all doctors
to a QUESTIONABLE declar-
ed that they are willing to partici-
pated in a national health insur-
ance program. Another 24f6 was
undecided" Only 61f6 stuck to
the ANA mo participation" party
line which has been fed for years.
In New England and in the
Middle Atlantic states nearly half
the MDs bolted the ANA party
line.
CNH explains that the poll was
taken during the S0th Congress
when there was no chance for the !
passage of a health bill. A much
better response would be forth
coming if the bill makes headway !
low, CNH believes.

port, but also to further actively
the Marshall Plan, have become a
leading force i'm the European re-
construction. The willingness OF
trade unions of Europe to assume
this leadership and to accept their
full share of the responsibility in
the advancement of European re-
covery has firmly assured the sue
cess of the plan.
"The confident backing given to
the Marshall Plan by the Ameri-
can labor movement from the start
has made possible the enactment
and realization of the full scope of
the program.
"We are heartened by the assur-
ance of unremitting cooperation of
the free trade unionists of America
and Europe through the coming
year. We welcome their increased
participation in our work in order
that 1949 may bring even greater
progress along the road to bet
ter standard of living and a firm
