of free collective bargaining"
The old Wagner Act simply pro.
tected the right of employees to or.
ganize in unions and to bargain
through the unions with their en-
ployeEs.
Some Boycotts "Justifiable."
The Hartley Act prohibits
jurisdictional strikes and bans
secondary boycotts. Jurisdictional
strikes result from disputes among
unions as to which should perform
work. Mr.. Truman would not go as
far as the present law in the matter
of boycotts. Two years ago he said
that boycotts to protect decent
wages and working conditions are
justiflable.
The reference to prevention oi
"the use of economic force to decide
issues arising out Of the interpreta-
ton of existing contracts" meant
that the President believes that all
such disputes should be arbitrated
through provision for it in the con-
tracts. In other words, there should
be in such disputes no strikes by
employees or lockouts by employers.
Strikes which would imperil the
national health or safety. such as a
coal or shipping strike. may be de-
layed for 80 days under the Taft
Hartley Act by the use Of Govern
ment-obtained court injunctions.
Mr.. Truman did not say whether he
would continue the injunction ap-
proach. Two years ago he merely
asked for a longtime study of a

The
G.ad(e Roe9e,

Less than fifty years ago a group
of people came ashore from a small
ship with the deep seated deter
mination to build a town at the
head of Resurrection Bay. To build
a town and to build a railroad by
which the fabulous gold deposits
inland could be made more easily
accessible.
Who knows what visions must
have prompted those first set
tiers. some of whom are still
living? No doubt they pictured
great docks and warehouses;, ships
and locomotives. all the acquire
ments Of modern living and deep
in their hearts houses, cabins, sur
rounded by green grass and flow
erS. They must have had that lat
ter dream because it is inherent
in the human ace TO have a home
which is decorated in some way,
with flowers, sea shells or bits of
bone and skins, depending upon
the geographical location.
Those oldtimers soon found it
was not easy to achieve their
dream. True it is that a railroad
was built, docks and warehouses
grew up, more and more settlers
arrived in the search for gold.
Some found the treasure and de-
parted for easier living and a few
remained. Year after year this pro-
cess continued until those who re.
manned, with stout hearts and
sturdy wills built up a town.
Those who had vision and dreams
of homes. They soon learned that
the glacial gravel will not grow
flowers without the addition of
soil. Shelter was an immediate
necessity. Work taxing the capa-
city of strong men was needed to
furnish bare necessities of food
and clothing for families; wind.
flood and disastrous fires destroyed
the accomplishment of years of
hard work. Long winters with too
little sunshine and without the
fresh foods that tone up the hui

man body-all these things tend
ing toward a feeling of apathy,
pushing the dream, the desire for
beauty into the background SO
that as our people slowly acquired
the means, that original desire
became a compelling urge to go
back outside. Outside where we
now remember the nice houses,
grass, flower gardens, paved
streets, parks, Fairgrounds for
getting the back yard squalor, rick
ETY. tenements, noise and rush Of
the cities.
In present-day Seward, times
have not changed much. True,
thanks to the efforts of those early
builders, we have an organized
community, modern living to the
extent of electricity, plumbing, fire
and police protection, up-to-date
merchandise, recreation, schools, a
modern city, even to the inclusion
of squalor and tenements. The last
two>items are our w fault.
1t still requires all a mans energy
to earn a bare living for growing
families. 1t still is necessary to sup
plement our diet with synthetic
vitamins-and probably will always
be necessary. Faced year after year
with work stoppages we are afraid
to spend beyond the immediate in
come in building, remodeling, or
even finishing our homes, the
threat of being caught without
work or income during the winter
months hanging over our heads
like the ever-present sword Of
Damocles.
But friends. if we can't paint up.
we can clean up. There is hardly a
yard in town which is not streWn
with winter refuse. Lumber, broken
furniture, discarded oil cans, rusty
stove pipe, broken bottles, broken
fences, Uttered roadsides, all these
things have an unconscious effect
upon our attitude toward living. If
every family will clean up the yard
and the street nearby it will make
a surprising difference. What does
it matter whether we are renting
or own our own homes, no n
really wants to live untidily.
Let's begin this cleanup month

Fairfax School Board
To Meet on Budget

The Fairfax County School
Board will hold a special meeting
at 7;3O pm. tomorrow to take
final action on the 1949-50 school
budget.
The meeting was called after the
County Board of Supervisors failed
to approve the School Boards pro-
posed $2,506, 048 budget on grounds
that it had not been drawn up to
show where $4,000 Of the total
was to be obtained.
The School Board had proposed
three ways of raising the $4,000
to make a direct appropriation
from the general fund; to make
an appropriation from the liquor
revenues or to increase the school
levy by 10 cents. The supervisors
said they could not approve the
first two methods and indicated
the School Board should call for
the 10-cent tax increase in its
budget.
The School Board is expected
to put the 10-cent tax increase in
it's budget tomorrow night. The
county budget will be adopted by
the supervisors after a public hear
