Arasan Improves
Grass Stands

Increases of up to 178 percent in
stands of alfalfa and other small
seed legumes and grasses when the
seeds were treated before planting
with Arasan are reported by the
Dupont Co., makers. Arasan, a nom
metallic sulphur compound, has been
used for other purposes for a num-
Der of years, but the tests of its
value in the treatment of small grass
seeds is a new development this
year.
Effectiveness of the treatment is
due to its control of a fungus that
attacks the seed after it has germi-
mated but before the plant comes
through the ground. Small grass
seeds, having little food reserve to
carry them through, are especially
susceptible to such fungi.

NEW YORK (LPA) - Labor
unity in the strike against the
World Telegram & Sun remains
100 per cent. Management Tor
the second time tried back-to-
work movement and lost again,
when members of the craft un-
ions again refused to cross the
picket lines of the New York
Newspaper Guild.
The paper, pride of the
Scripps- Howard chain, has not
published since June 13, when
the Guild unit walked out in a
dispute over job and union Sc
curity and wages. The walkout
followed months of fruitless
negotiations.
Management asked members
of the eight mechanical and
craft unions to return. The un-
ions talked it over, and the an
swer was "No."
Francis G.. Barrett, president
of Local 9 of the International
Typographical Union, said the
printers felt they could not risk
p ersonal injury" by going
through the picket line.
The Local adopted a resolu-
tion asking the national ITU
convention in Washington next
month to commend printers 10
calls which honor picket lines of
kindred crafts" The resolution
also said the convention should
urge all ITU locals ito continue
and intensity their efforts to-
ward achieving cooperation with
allied unions for joint action in
their localities"

Point W Cut
Restored By
Senate Committee

WASHINGTON (LPA)-The
Point Nv program to help back
ward areas of the world was
back to $34.5 millions on July
18. The Senate Appropriations
committee, IL to 3, put back the
$16.5 millions it had cut out
earlier.
The action followed strong
protests by organized labor and
liberal groups against the slash.
Those protesting pointed out
that $35 millions was little
enough, and that to cut the fund
further would be catastrophe.
The bill, as reported from
committee 10 days ago, provided
$40 millions in new cash, and
$7.6 millions previously author
lied in other legislation. Presi-
dent Truman had asked $3.50
millions in new cash. The COM
mittee's action in restoring the
cut brought the Point Nv total
to $34.5 millions. Congress had
authorized $35 millions.
The day before in a radio in
terview the Point Nv program
director had said the program
would mot cost American tax
payers a penny in the long run.
Capus M. Waynick, the State
Dept. official in charge of the
program, explained "it is much
more profitable to do business
with a nation that is well-de-
veloped economically than with
those who are not"
The intent of the program,
said Waynick, is to show to the
world "that man does not need
to become a chattel of the state
In order to be safe and well-fed,
well-housed. and well-clothed." I"

Charges Plot
To Cut Pay Of
Farm Workers

WASHINGTON (LPA)-Bills
before the House authorizing
importation of farm workers
from the West Indies and Gen.
trail and South America are part
of a campaign to cut the pay of
American farm laborers. Edwin
c. NJ &C h e l. l of the National
Farm Labor Union-AFL made
that charge before the House
Agricultural Committee July l8.
Ed Mitchell is the brother of
NFLU President Harry l.. Mitch
ell.
Mitchell testified after spokes-
men for southern and western
farm operators appeared in sup
port of the bills. To bolster his
C case, he submitted statistics
gathered by the State of Califor-
MIA to show an abundance of
American farm labor available
on the west coast. However, he
ran into sharp opposition from
Committee members.
Rep. E. c. Gathings ID, Ark
asked why an Arkansas farmer
would go TO all the trouble to
import labor if there was plenty
available locally. Mitchell point
ed out that when Mexicans were
brought into Arkansas under a
State Department greement with
the Mexican government, wages
for picking cotton dropped near
ly 81 per 100 pounds.
