'Safeway Plan
Revealed As
Union-BuIIsting

San Francisco (LPA)-Hearings
resume here Jan. in the $500,00
damage suit brought by Safeway
Stores against two Retail Clerks
AFL locals in the East Bay area.
Secretary Larry Vail of the Cal
ifornia State Council of Retail
Clerks charges that Sideways re-
fusal to recognize that managing
clerks" may be represented by the
union is a cloak for the 'real pur-
pose of the Safeway Plan-to dis
rupt or smash the clerks unions in
their efforts to improve the work
ing conditions of grocery store en-
ployes."
While all of the grocery indus
try originally refused to meet the
unions terms, including pay boost
and continued contract protection
for managing clerks, Safeway alone
has held out after strikes which
started Sept. 19 and Oct. 27 in two
bay area counties.
Safeway men testified at the
trial that 1--WE realized that Safe
way could not participate in the in
dustry program of keeping it's
stores open unless our managers
remained on the job and worked
behind our picket lines"

Sfufe Powers Bor
Rent Control Law

New York (LPA) - New York
City tenants will be thrown on the
mercy of the state legislature now
that the State Court of Appeals
has unanimously declared illegal
the city's own rent control law.
The measure, which froze resi-
Dental rents as of March /, 1949
regardless of any increases grant
ed by federal officials under the
law passed by the US Congress,
also prohibited a landlord from
evicting a tenant for refusing to
pay higher rent, unless the high
er figure had been okayed by the
city rent commission, and certi-
ficate of eviction had been issued
by the commission.
The city, the court ruled, under
the state laws limiting powers of
local governing units, did not have
the right to take these drastic
steps.

More Cooperation
Of AFL, Clio Seen

New York City (ILNS).-Matt.
hew Woll and David Dubinsky
American Federation of Labor vice
presidents, arriving here from Eu
rope, voiced the belief that the
AFL and CIO would soon be coop
Grating more closely. The same be-
lief was recently expressed in Lon
don by AFL President William
Green.
Woll and Dubinsky attended the
recent London conference at which
the International Confederation of
Free Trade Unions was organized.
Later Woll visited Italy, where he
talked with anti-Communist trade
union officials. He said that the 8
on-Communist union federations
in that country would merge short
ly and that they would then be-
come an effective and formidable
rival to the Communist group"
Woll and Dubinsky agreed that
the close cooperation displayed in
London between the AFL and
CIO would undoubtedly lead soon
to closer relations at home and both
prophesied the eventual merger of
the two groups. Neither wished to
say how soon such merger might
take place.

u. S., California
Settle JobIeSS
Pay Dispute

Washington, d. c. (ILNS). :
A compromise settlement has beer
made in a dispute over CALIFORNIA;
unemployment compensation law
the U. S. Labor Department with
drawing its contention that recent
rulings in California had altered
the state law so that it no longer
conformed to the Social Security
Act.
The settlement removed the
threat of interrupting jobless pay
to California unemployed and of
imposing additional ts&es upon
employer payrolls. Secretary of
Labor Tobin said an exchange of
letters with California officials had
removed the issues involved.
Charles w. Johnson, California
deputy attorney general, presented
a letter on behalf of the California
Unemployment Insurance Appeals
Board stating that it did not con-
slider it's ruling in a recent case a
binding precedent and promising to
reopen similar cases pending. The
issue concerned an appeals board
ruling in California denying job
less benefits to union seamen while
on strike in 1948.

Ducks Chance To
Debate Issue OF
Health Insurance

Washington (LPA)-The Amer
! lean Medical Association does not
want to give it's opponents a
chance to answer the propaganda
it is spreading against national
health insurance with it's $5,000,-
900 propaganda fund. A dramatic
demonstration of this unwillingness
to debate came this week when the
ANA was given chance to answ-
er charges made by Nathan Robert
son, LPA columnist and commenta-
tor, over a chain of cooperative
and labor stations.
Last week Robertson, in his reg
ular weekly commentary, had
charged the ANA was using its
5000, ,O00-raised through assess
ments on its members-to maintain
status quo in medicine. He noted
its opposition to pending legisla
Ition to increase the number of doc
tors, to provide diagnostic and pre-
ventive care for school children,
and to consumer controlled volun-
tary health insurance programs.
The ANA demanded Robertson's
time on the air this week to reply.
But when DR.. Herbert P. Ramsey,
the ANA spokesman, took the air,
he made no attempt to answer the
commentators charges. Instead he
reviewed AMA's record in raising
scientific and professional stand
ards. This was in line with the ad-
vice of Whitaker and Baxter,
AMA's high paid press agents, not
to debate the issue of national
health insurance. Whitaker and
Baxter have spent $2,000,000 of
AMA's funds to spread 55,000,000
pieces of propaganda against ma
tional health insurance throughout
the nation-but they have advised
doctors it is unwise to debate the
issue.

Data On DUPONT
Held Under Cover

Washington (LPA)-Rep. EN-
anuel Celler Cd, N.Y., chairman OF
the House Monopoly Investigating
Committee, is reported to be pre-
pairing to use his subpoena power
for the first time-to get a report
prepared by the Federal Trade
Commission on the monopolistie
structure of the du Pont empire.
The report, prepared months ago
by the staff of the FTC, has been
kept under cover under the pretext
that it would disclose data given
the commission by the du Pont
company confdentially. But mem
bers of4the Commission staff have
felt this was only a pretext-be-
cause the operations of du Pont are
well enough known so that no real
secrets are involved.
Those who have seen the report
say it is damaging indictment of
the way the du Pont chemical en-
pire has operated to crush competi-
tion. The dupont chemical company
is the biggest in the country. 1t
also controls General Motors, one
of the nations biggest industrial
corporations and U. S. Rubber, an
other of the tremendous companies
operating in the industrial field.
The Justice Department already
has brought suit to force dissolu-
tion of the du Pont control of GIN
and U. S. Rubber.

Labor Organ Calls
Taft 'Beggar Bob

Washington (LPA)-Since when,
Labor newspaper asks this week,
do rail company freight agents
consider it part of their official
duties to pass the cup to save Sen.
Robert Taft Or, Ohio) from defeat
when he runs for reelection next
November?
The papers ire at the fund-rais-
ing tactics of "Beggar Bob Taft"
is aroused by readers report that
r. H. Doutt, assistant general
freight agent of the New York
Central in Cleveland, has sent to
all the company's agents in the
territory a letter asking for a dol
lar each for Taft's campaign fund.
To add insult to injury, the Doutt
letter is an exact facsimile of hund-
reds of other personal appeals
that are being mailed out by Taft
supporters.
The rail union publication re-
ports that it is receiving, from all
over the country, copies of the
canned" fund appeal to send Taft
back to Washington where, Labor
charges, he will "renew his battle
to destroy labor unions, benefits
for farmers, improved social secur-
ity for the old, and the blind and
the unemployed, and all the other
progressive proposals" made under
President Roosevelt and Truman.

VIM. Green Tells Congress Government
Investment Must Supplement Private

Washington UPA) = William
Green, President of the American
Federation of Labor, has warned
Congress that if full employment
is to be maintained the govern
ment must be ready to step in and
fill any gaps created by drop in
private investment.
In a statement submitted to the
Joint Congressional Economic Sub
committee considering the part in
vestment plays in controlling
booms and busts, Green emphasized
the effect of consumer demand in
maintaining employment, but con-
ceded that the level of investment
expenditures is another important
factor.
In other words, Green told Con-
gress, jobs are created by two
things-the demands of consumers
for goods to meet everyday needs
and wants, and demands for capital
goods by those who are investing
savings. Maintenance of both kinds
of spending is needed to keep the
economy on even keel-but the
maintenance of consumer demand
is most important because it deter
mines how much will be invested
in capital goods.
Investment spending, however,
Green told the Committee, has
tended to swing up and down much
more rapidly than consumer spend
ing. He warned that investors do
not make their decisions on the

By DONALD WOODS

Washington (LPA) = The S1st
Congress, still closely balanced be-
tween liberals and conservatives, Is
back for another try at passing the
Fair Deal program. The result OF
next falls Congressional elections
may hang on the outcome.
In its first session, the 81st bet
tered the deplorable record of the
80th, but not by enough to make a
clear distinction at the polls. 1t is
out this time to clean up many OF
the measures that were left hang
ing at the end of the last session,
including social security expansion
aid-to-education, civil rights, dis
placed persons legislation, and
monopoly bills.
Many Of these issues will come
up the first month of the session.
First in the Senate will be the bill
to repeal the discriminatory oleo-
margarine taxes. Next will come
the displaced persons bill, which
conservative Senator McCarran Cd,
New blocked last year. Then will
come the FEPC bill-the most con-
troversial measure of the years
program.
FEPC probably will be blocked
by a Southern filibuster-but some
kind of compromise, such as en-
actment of the less controversial
civil rights bills-anti-poll tax, or
anti-lynching legislation-may get
through.
