JOBLESS:
Hit New Peck

Again jobless numbers in the
United States had catapulted to a
new high, and again the federal
commerce department appeared
unperturbed about it.
Unemployment rose to 1884 600
In February-the highest figure
since 1941-when the total was
$500, 900.
DESPITE THE FACT that many
industrial and economic leaders
protested to see danger In the sit
uation, the commerce department
came UP with the usual bland, I'M
concerned explanation as to the
cause Of the big jump In unemploy-
ment.
As was stated in January when
jobless figures appeared alarming.
commerce department boss said:
1.-THE slight rise in unemploy-
ment between January and Feb
ruary (204,000) appears to be due
mainly to seasonal increase in the
labor force and not to any cutbacks
in employment"
But was that the case? Wasn't
it logical to assume that an in
crease in the labor force"-mean-
ing unemployed but available labor
meant a corresponding lack Of
employment for that same force.
1T WAS SIGNIFICANT, many
observers felt, that the figure as
reported did not include striking
workmen, a fact that meant the
unemployment picture was not dis
torted in that sense
Why was unemployment appar-
emily steadily increasing? How
would the seasonal turnover" ex-
PLANTATION hold water? If there
were serious threat of widespread
unemployment in the nation, it
seemed the government should
ascertain the fact.

U.N. COST:
One Dime Each

Each citizen of the United State:
pays less than a dime for his share
OF the basic United Nations annua
budget.
At least three members Of con
greSs disagree on whether this is
too much. too little. or about right
according to the first issue of q
weekly wall newspaper in color, the
UN GRAM.
APPEARING for the first time
this week, the new publication re-
ports that Sen. Herbert R. O'Conor
Of Maryland, chairman of the sen
ate committee on expenditures in
the executive departments which
recently issued a report asking
that the U.N. reduce its expendi-
lures for the United Nations and
its affiliates. thinks that a dime
per capita is too much. Congress
woman Helen Gahagan Douglas,
on the other hand. says it is too
little; while Sen. Estes Kefauver
is quoted as saying it is about
right.
The U.N. Gram. which tells sub
scriberS about the United Nations,
in this issue effectively presents
each of these three viewpoints.
B%uttressing Senator O'Conor's
too much" point, it states: In
ternationalism, plus national de-
tense, is a luxury. U.N.'s budget is
just the start: each specialized
agency asks more. How can the
little nations pay?"
Supporting the too little" ap-
proach Of Congresswoman Douglas,
it says: New York City, U.N.'s
permanent home. pays more for
garbage disposal than U.N.'s an
nual cost; its subway deficit would
run the U.N. for six months"
AND BACKING up Senior Ke-
f~auver's Just right" viewpoint, it
argues: Tipping the U.N. budget.
by forcing out poorer members,
would make it a rich mans club"
If the us. paid the increase. still
others might resign, charging that
the U.N. was the Creature" of
the United States.
"Our aim," states publisher Wal
lace Thorsen, lis to get people
thinking and talking about the
United Nations and the job it is
doing in building the world COM
munity."

quent issues, to present a simple,

COAL:
A Look Aheud

The most Gripping coal strike
in the nations history had come to
an end. Miners were pouring back
into the pits and allied industries,
faced with a threat of total shut
down, we're reviving and calling
men back to work.
John l.. Lewis, United Mine
Worker chieftian, apparently had
won again. He had obtained a raise
in pay for the miners along with
additional health and welfare ben
efits.
But as the nation relaxed with a
sigh Of relief that the production
stop threat had been removed,
leaders in the coal industry began
to look farther ahead-to examine
methods by which a permanent
coal peace might be won.
Leading mine operators stated
they hoped to complete arrange
ments to have Harry w. Moses.
head of the Captive" mine SUBJ
salaries Of the United States Steel
corporation, to leave big steel and
devote all his time to handling the
coal industry's dealings with Lewis.
APPOINTMENT Of Moses as a
full-time representative Of the soft
coal industry in its relations with
the UNIV is designed as a move to
end the chaotic conditions that
have existed in the mine fields for
years. The move has the support
o. virtually all the principal opera
tors in the north and west and was
expected to win strong favor among
southern operators as well.
A lasting industry peace has long
been the goal Of operators and the
public, which is beginning to tire
Of the almost annual war Of nerves
between the mine union boss and
operators while the nation stands
almost helpless without fuel.

LEWIS
A Fine Lorgess

John l.. Lewis, president OF the
United Mine Workers Of America
"a labor union which does not pay
its members strike benefits and
which subjects them to untold mis-
cry and hardship during strike per-
iods-was offering a v~ictory-flush-
ed one-million-dollar loan to the
CLIO. United Automobile Workers
union.
THE PURPOSE Of the loan
would be to help the JAW win new
contracts from Chrysler and Cen
eral Motors. Lewis wrote Walter
Reuther, head Of the giant auto
workers union, that wage-wefare
improvements in the coal industry
we're fought by money interests
linked with 1.-The financial group"
which dominates car-making.
He added that this aid is needed
50 your union may be assured be-
yond preadventure, Of success 1
its present struggle" Reuther was
In the midst Of a long strike for
pensions at Chrysler corporation.
At the time of Lewis offer, 1t was
estimated JAW workers had lost
IS million dollars in pay and the
company $50 million dollars.
Help for Reuther was authorized
at a jubilant meeting OF Lewis with
his top union aides, where Lewis
was said to have boosted that he
had clicked" the strike-emergency
injunction provision Of the Taft
Hartley law, inasmuch as a federal
court injunction issued under the
law failed to halt the coal strike.
MOST of the big us. industrial
concerns feared that Lewis victory
over the coal operators in the mat
ter Of wage increases and addition
al health and welfare benefits
would touch off a series Of strikes
as other unions sought to do as
well for themselves.
Coal was being mined again and
industry's wheels were turning,
but the immediate future appeared
grim and uncertain. The question
seemed to be-: When and where
will the next strike erupt? 1t
seemed inevitable to v a casual
observer that another round of
wage-hike fights was in the making.

FARM SUPPORTS:
New Aids Asked

Charles Brannan, us. secretary
Of agriculture. was still pumping
for adoption of his CBrannan plah'
system for farm price supports,
arguing that new price aids must
be provided now.
Pointing out that there is trouble
getting rid of 1948 farm SURPRISES
even as 1949 SURPRISES are pouring
in. Brannan said the disposal PROB
lem points to the need OF supple
mentary action IN price supports
particularly with respect to more
efficient methods than procedures
for handling price supports OF per-
ishable commodities"
THE agriculture secretary may
have had a point there, but the
main question was: Would his plan
of letting farm products find their
own levels on the price market,
with subsidies making up the dill
ference-provide an adequate So
luton?
Up to this point, he had been un-
able to convince congress that 1t
would. What luck he would have n
the future was wholly problemati-
cal. But there was no arguing the
point that something needed to be
done to clear up the muddled farm
price support program. AS it was
being operated, federal farm policy
seemed to be getting worse n
farther it went.
Brannan was eminently correct
when he admitted that the present
price support system programs
encourage over-production on mi
hand, and under-consumption on
the other and to find sufficient
ly new uses for the SURPRISES, or to
divert them into non-commerc1al
channels at anything comparable
to the support price usually is i'm
possible"
SUMMING UP, Brannan said:
Briefly, the outlook includes the
likelihood of some further contrac-
ton in the total demands for US.
farm products and points to the
need for adjustment in production
if a favorable price level is to be
maintained"
The problem indeed was a grave
one and made even more grave by
the fact that the administration
may be caught in a trap that has
been long in the making-a trap
created by the fact that having so
long experienced the subsidy aid
as is, farmers won't like any tam
pering with the program and might
visit their ill will on anyone who
may do so.
