IN MEMORY

In loving memory Of Mary Gail
Marquis who passed away four
years ago, January 6, 1915.
The moon and stars are shining
On a cold and silent grave.
Where there sleeps without
dreaming
One we loved but could not
save.
Calm and peaceful she is
sleeping
Sweetest rest that follows pain
We who loved her sadly miss
her
But trust in God to meet again.
Sadly missed by:

Political Action
By Trade Unions

New York (LPA)-British poll
tical scientist Harold j. Laski last
week declared that the political re
sponsibility of the trade unior
movement today is at least as inn
portant as its economic work.
Speaking under the auspices OF
the Sidney Hillman Foundation
established by the Amalgamatec
Clothing Workers Of America ir
honor of its first president Lask
declared:
"The trade union movement, ir
a revolutionary age like our own
has a political task at least OF
equal Importance to its economic
function. No doubt it must seek
with all its power to increase pro-
ductivity; there is no other way to
advance the standard of life.
"Yet it seems to me that the
supreme duty Of the trade unions
in particular, therefore, of their
leaders-is to set the economic
policy in the political prospective
that makes its fulfillment possible" ."
The British Labor party leader
said that either western society
will ego forward towards a COM
munity which is a fellowship of
free men and women, or backward
TO a new dark age"
Altho critical of the activities of
the Communist party, Professor
Laski warned against the sort of
anti-Communist campaigns which
he fears might end with the des-
truction of democracy.
While number of colleges and
universities have accepted the Hill
man Foundations invitation to CO.
sponsor Laski lectures, the Uni
versity of California has with
drawn its request that he address
its student body. ACW has ann
ounced, however, that u of C stud
ents will be welcome ut a public
lecture it has arranged for the
visiting scholar in Los Angeles.

Urge Probe Of Z
Marine Policy

Washington (LPA)-An investi-
cation of the maritime industry
was urged on President Truman
last week by a White House dele
cation led by Sen. Warren Magnu-
son Cd, Wash). President Joseph
Curran of Natl Maritime Union
and Hoyt Haddock, director of the
Maritime Committee.
Lack of firm maritime policy,
the group told Truman, endangers
the entire US Merchant Marine.
Three major problems, they main
tained, are:
Use of foreign ships to carry
foreign aid goods.
2-Use of army ships in COM
petition with private shipping.
3-Transfer of many ships to
Panama registry in order to un-
dercut American wage and work
standards.
Nearly $4,000 American merch-
ant seamen are now unemployed.

Best Essayist To
Get Two Weeks Al
XIV. Labor School

Louisville (LPA)-The Kentucky
AFL member who can best put into
words "What My Union Means TIC
Me" will get two weeks free work
and play at the state AFL's Labor
School this summer.
Deadline for contest entries is
April Is.
The contest was set up by the
Dept of Research and Education
of the Kentucky Federation of
Labor to give an opportunity to a
union member from some small
local in the state, which cannot af-
ford to pay the schools tuition fee,
to attend its classes.
It's often these small unions
which are most anxious to have
their young members trained for
union work, the Department be-
lieves.
The Labor School, which will be
held at Eastern State College, will
furnish courses in collective bar
gaining procedures, labor history,
parliamentary law and public
speaking, as well as lectures in
economics and political science.
