MoryIond's Highway Dilemma

Motorists generally and Maryland motorists
in particular will be disappointed to learn that
the States five-year road modernization pro-
gram launched with so much publicity three
years ago, is becoming seriously begged down.
The chief trouble, according to the State Roads
Commission, is the high cost of highway con-
struction in these times of high priced materials
and labor. Unless more money can be found
for highways-which would mean higher taxes
the five-year program will have to be extended
long beyond that period, and the ultimate cost
will be three or four times the original estimate
That is bad news for everyone who has to
travel over Maryands outmoded highway
system.
The road needs were so acute after the war
that Marylanders readily agreed to an increase
in the gasoline tax from 4 to S cents and to
other tax changes designed to provide more
money for roads. The five-year plan was
expected to cost $18S 500 600, not including the
cost of the Chesapeake Bay bridge and Of any
self financing toll roads. But even so large sum
cannot 90 very far when highways cost as much
as a million dollars a mile. This stupendous
figure represents the cost of some sections of
the States part of the washington Baltimore
Parkway, which is a divided superhighway
designed to relieve congestion on the dangerous
old Baltimore pike.

a great mass Of calculations. testing
whether that taxpayer or any taxpayer

endure. We are met on Form 1040. We

our income to final resting place with

they may spend our money. It Is alto
gether anguish and torment that we
should do this.
But in the legal sense we cannot evade

and sly, who computed here have gone
far beyond our poor power to add and
subtract. Our creditors will little note
nor long remember what we pay here.
but the Bureau of Internal Revenue can
never forget what We report here.
ut is for us, the taxpayer, rather to
be devoted here to the tax return which
the Government has thus far so nobly
spent. 1t Is rather for us to be here
dedicated to the great task remaining
before us-that from these vanishing
dollars we take increased devotion to the
few remaining: that we here highly re-
solve that next year will not find us in
the higher income bracket; that this
taxpayer, underpaid, shall figure out
more deductions; and that taxation Of

to hold 1t together. would end up in COM
plete disagreement in matter Of
months. That would end any possibility
Of organic unity.
The slow versus quick approached
unity argument is the public battle of
the labor officials. Their statements on
this plane are intended. perhaps, pri-
marily for consumption by rank and file
unionists, most Of whom want a unified
movement.
But the real barrier to merger is that
powerful interests in both the AFL and
cIO do not want it. 1t is the old busi-
ness about the big fish in small pond.
The AFL is controlled by the building
trades unions. notably by Daniel j.
Tobins Teamsters and William L.
Hutcheson's Carpenters. On the other
side the CIO is run pretty much by Mr..
Murray's Steelworkers and Walter
Reuther's Auto Workers.
If the two big organizations were
Joined. the influence of each of the four
big unions would be sharply reduced.
That would be especially true If the
powerful independent unions. like the
Mine Workers and Machinists. were
brought in.
Some trade unioniSts argue that divi-
sion actually is beneficial to the cause of
labor. They say the competition for
economic gains and prestige keeps the
leaders on their toes. But the advantages
to labor of a unified movement would
seem to be far greater. There is no

gress, because of its preoccupation with
National matters, fails to act or Is too
slow in acting on District affairs, are we
to suppose that the enacting Of the Ke-
fauver bill would galvanize Congress into
inSistent and speedy use Of the powers Of
ultimate control which it has put on the
shelf for emergencies?
The only alternative offered by the op-
ponentS Of the Kefauver bill is repre-
sentation of the District in Congress to
help Congress to act on District affairs
Is it meant that such representatives
(including District Senator or two. we
hope), by the confidence of their much
more numerous colleagues from the
States, or perhaps by log rolling maneu-
vers, would be allowed to exercise in ef-
feet the powers which the Kefauver bill.

would confer on District Council? That
would be very makeshift sort Of home
rule, and it also would be a rather poor
sort of national representation. with our
spokesmen ip Congress too burdened
with responsibility for local legislation to
represent US adequately on the national
issues.
No direct action by Congress on cur
rent District affairs, even with our full
share of representation in that Congress,
would be local self-government for us.
The only way is for Congress to set up an
elective local governing body and let it
do it's work. The retention of Congress
ultimate control, seldom exercised, would
not interfere with essential home rule.
The only way to find out how seldom it
would be exercised is to try 1t, and not to
make the defeatist assumption that we

doubt about the political power which
could be welded by Is million unionists
and their families. The next step after
merger probably would be creation Of
the long discussed Labor Party.
American labor some day undoubtedly
will be unified. But it will take more
than Mr.. Murrays argument that re-
dictionary anti-labor forces are again in
the ascendancy" to turn the trick. Some
thing much more jarring is required. A
couple of major defeats at the polls
might do it, So might an economic de-
preston, or a full-fledged union busting
drive.
In appraising the chances Of success
Of the Murray proposal, it should be
noted that the first labor leader to accept
was Mr.. Lewis. 1t was the smack of
his fist against big Bill" Hutcheson's
nose that signaled the breach in labor's
ranks. That took place at an AFL con-
vention, Is years ago.
Then, after building the CIO into a
going concern, Mr.. Lewis left 1t in huff
in 1912. Four years later he was back
in the AFL. In less than two years he
was out again. sending William Green a
