Wheatley, we also obtained a lO
cents per hour across the board in
crease as Of September IL for all
employees. While the latter was
not up to our expectations in the
amount for which we were nego-
tiating, nevertheless, the commit
tee, who were empowered to con-
clude a contract, accepted the 10
cents per hour on the basis of the
fact that including the previous
5 cents per hour, precedent had
been made that the company had
recognized the rising costs of liv-
ing.
Brother Wheatley acted as
spokesman for Local Union No. so,
assisted by the local-committee of
Robert Gresch, H. f. Krause,
Horace Smith, Hobart Blake, l..
L. Fluharty and Frank Sudowski.
Brother Wheatley and the above
committee are also still negotiat-
ing whenever possible with the
firm on a mutual welfare plan, but
there are many points remaining
to be ironed out before a suitable
plan can be presented to the MEM
bership of the local for ratifica-
ton or rejection.
While it is true that not all our
members favored the acceptance
of the new contract, nevertheless,
the fact remains that in negotiat-
ing for increased wages in a new
contract, the committee is invar-
iably confronted with the fact that
too many of our members have
either been born or raised around
a race track. This is problem that
in a negotiating conference, a COM
mon ground must be found for the
greatest number of employees in
the matter of the amount of pro-
consistent with a high
standard of wages. Here's hoping
a word to the wise is sufficient.

OF Glass Haired

Columbus, Ohio (LPA) - Sen
Robert A. Taft. charged in Zanes-
vile that the leaders of the AFL
and CIO 'sre waging campaign
of, class hatred to. eliminate from
Congress those who are unwilling
toifollow the party line as do the
Comrhunists."
.s But just a week before, in the
GAINESVILLE Times Recorder, the
Taft forces ran q full page ad link
i1g those who oppose Taft with
G5mmunists, socialists, racketeers,
phioneers or Just plain boobs. (The
ad violated Ohio law because it did
not carry the, tiames of its spon-
sors). :
! That ad really appealed to class
hatred, and was "a lying attempt
to suggest that the Opposition to
Taft Is subversive', declared Henry
Miller Busch, professor at West
srn Reserve u, who is, supporting
Joseph T. Ferguson, Taft's Demo-
cratic opponefit.' Taft recently ran
out on a, promise to debate the
Taft-Hartley act before the Glen
dale. Town Forum In Cincinnati. He
lodged when he learned Busch
would be his opponent.
The -Ohio papers prominently
the news story that AL
yanley Johnston, one-time pres
ident of the Brotherhood of Loco
motive Engineers, had come out
for Taft, intimating Johnston was
speaking for the union. When j. P.
Shield, now head of the Engineers,
announced Johnston no longer held
any official union position, was
speaking for himself, and that the
brotherhood had not endorsed Taft,
the Ohio newspapers buried the
statement, or ignored it.

VOLUNTARY RESTAINT IS URGED
by TOBIN TO AVOID CONTROLS

have to face, as the leaders of AM
erican labor during this period, are
not easy. The degree Of self-res-
traint which the President has ask
ed you to exercise is not going to
be popular.
"But it is crystal clear that such
self-restraint affords the best
chance to avoid the drastic overall
price and wage controls of kind
that we had during World War ii
the kind that we would prefer
not to go back to.
"The overall cost of living has
actually risen by a fairly small
amount since the period prior to
the onset of the Korean crisis. I.
If wage increases which are nego-
tiated in the period ahead can be
confined to those which are neces-
sary to correct the rise in the cost
of living, and if further increases
are avoided we may have some
chance to minimize controls. !. !.
Whether control powers will
have to be exercised will depend
upon what labor and management
do within the period that lies i'm
mediately ahead. -.
IF controls are necessary, the
law provides sufficient flexibility
to permit adjustments in cases
where inequity or hardship might
exist"

For New Building

Robert E. Boyce, president of
the Harker Pottery Co. announced
this week plans for the construc-
ton of a new sliphouse and glaze
room costing an estimated $780,
600.
The Potters Lumber Co. was
awarded the contract and will be-
gin work in the early part of Oct
ober. The building, of brick con-
struction with glazed tile interior,
will be approximately 10 by ITO
feet and provide an additional area
of about $4,000 square feet.
Instead of the silo type, the
storage bins will enter the ground
with the deck covering level with
freight car floors so that modern
unloading equipment can be utiliz-
ed.
The Harker Pottery, the oldest
in the country has been in opera
tion since 1840.

Urge Negotiations
With Consumers
On Price Changes

Houston, Tex. (LPA) Up in
Canada, trade unionists are press
ing the idea that business mer
should be forced to negotiate
with consumers before they hike
prices.
That was revealed by Roger Pro
vost, fraternal delegate from the
Canadian Trades & Labor Con
gress, in an address to the AFI
convention here.
Provost, an international repre-
sentative of the Hatters and vice
president of the Quebec Federation
of Labor, pointed out that under
our present wage contracts, which
are binding legal agreements, our
wage structure is the most stable
part of the Canadian economy"
|We want to see a similar ap-
proach to prices" he said. "We
want prices negotiated in much the
same way as we negotiate wages.
"We want the employer to have
to negotiate with the consumer,
and we are satisfied that can be
done by creating a government
board, on which there will be labor
representatives, and before which
every price must be considered be-
fore it can be changed. In this way
we can obtain both short-run and
long-term stabilization".
Provost also revealed that Can
adian AFL unions are ridding their
ranks of Communists.

Ad Drive Of ANA

Houston, Tex. (LPA) - Federal

Medical Association jointly with
other reactionary groups.
Ewing was cheered Justify as he

AFL Convention
Acts On Record
Number Of Issues
(By N. b. O. p. Delegates)

Houston, Tex. (LPA)-Packing
a record amount of work into a
record-short six-day convention,
the American Federation of Labor
spread out for the nation and the
world its position on a vast num-
Der of domestic and international
issues.
When President William Green
adjourned the 69th convention
"sine die" late Saturday, Sept. 23,
the 700 delegates had finished
hammering out their stand on sew
eral hundred resolutions, policy
statements and committee reports.
Major decisions made were these.
WAGES AND PRICES = Con-
trolls over prices should be immedi-
ately imposed, and prices which
have risen excessively should be
rolled back to June.
Wage controls are neither nee
essary nor advisable at this time.
Wages should be permitted to
catch up with the advance in living
costs. Some pay stabilization may
be ultimately be necessary, but it
must provide room for correction
of inter-plant and inter-industry
inequities and for wage increases
based on increased productivity.
TAFT-HARTLEY ACT - The
AFL is as determined as ever to
secure repeal of this vicious anti
labor law. A top objective will be
the election in November of lib
eral majority to the House and
Senate, committed to repeal of the
TIL act and to enactment of pro-
gressive legislation.
LABOR UNITY-Necessity for
labor unity is greater than ever
before, but if negotiations for a
united labor movement are to sue
ceed, they must be confined for
the present to the AFL and CIO,
with Independent groups brought
in later.

STATEMENT BY
SENATOR FREAR
Congress Should Keep Hands
Off Social and Economic
Problems
LET STATES DECIDE

United States Senator ]. Allen
Frear recently paid tribute
to the American soldiers and mar
ines who successfully fought their
way out of the Communist trap in
Northeast Korea. In a statement
from Washington, Senator Frear
characterized the breakthrough as
one of the greatest but most
heartbreaking incidents in our mil
itary history" He described as a
miracle" the fact that any of the
troops survived the continuing at
taeks and the numbing Arctic
cold. At the same time Senator
Frear deplored the policy which
prevents United Nation planes
from striking back at Chinese
Reds inside the Manchurian bor-
der, during what he termed 'this
ironically described limited wal" !"
Mr.. Frear declared that the time
has come to ask an accounting of
this strange and grossly unequal
way of protecting our interests.
He described as "reprehensible"
the presence of Chinese Commun-
lists at the United Nations trying
to justify their policy of aggres-
sion, and secure agreements for
ending the Korean war on their
terms.
Senator Frear again expressed
the hope for peace, ''but not" he
said, "if it must be obtained by
sacrificing that for which we have
already given so much" He warn
ed against permitting Communists
leaders to add another nation
(Korea) to their growing empire.
Smyrna times., 1950-12-21

Commenting on legislation to
provide financial aid to the Tito
government of Yugoslavia, Senator
Frear urged that any aid be ad-
ministered under the accurate
supervision of American authori-
ties" In addition he said that the
Yugoslav people should be inform
ed that it is the United States
which is helping them. Mr.. Frear
also listed as a requirement for aid
to Yugoslavia, the halting of the
present policy of depressing relig-
ious minorities in that Balkan
country.
1--WE want the Yugoslav people
as our friends" Senator Frear
said, "but we do not want to be in
the position of assisting them
without some firm commitments
on their part to support our ideals
and objectives.

GUN HANDLING
KILLS MANY
500 Killed and Several thou.
sand Injured Each Season
by Careless Handling
CAN BE AVOIDED

Claude D. Kelley, President, Ma
tional Wildlife Federation, Wash
ington, ID. c., today urged more
care and respect towards gun
handling. Mr.. Kelley said, with
another hunting season in full
swing reports of hunting accidents
are coming in too rapidly. Each
hunting season we have over SOC
killed and several thousand more
injured by careless gun handling
These gun accidents can be avaid-
ed if we learn and practice the Ten
Commandments of Safety in gun
handling:
L. Treat every gun with the re-
spect due a loaded gun.
2. Carry only empty guns, taken
down or with the action open.
8. Always be sure that the bar
rel and action are clear of obstruc-
tion-
4. Always be sure to carry your
gun so that you can control the di-
rection of the muzzle even if you
stumble.
5. Be sure of your target before
you pull the trigger.
6. Never point a gun at anything
You do not want to shoot.
Z. Never leave your gun unat-
tended without unloading it first.
8. Never climb a tree or fence
with a loaded gun.
9. Never shoot at a fiat, hard
surface or the surface of water.
10. DO not mix gunpowder and
alcohol.
THE above ten rules of safety
in gun handling can be condensed
into two rules, first, handle every
gun as if it were loaded; and sec
end, never point the muzzle of
your gun toward anything that you
do not intend to shoot.
Constant practice Of the above
safety precautions will make them
come easier. Practice them, and
think about them whether you are
hunting or not. With time they be-
come second-nature. The thinking
sportsman becomes more careful
With experience. 1t is the trigger
happy lad who thinks he knows il
all who bears constant watching
That sort of fellow isn't popular
for long with other hunters.

U.N. Should Brand
R [||')S

$Belated action by the United Nations General
Assembly to put on its agenda resolution calling
upon the Chinese Communists to get out of Korea
spotlights the slow and hesitant way in which the
U.N. has dealt with this threat to world peace.
1t is more than a threat to world peace. It is
threat of complete failure of the United Nations as
an organization and idea, putting the world back
many years in its search for sensible, peaceable
way of ordering affairs among nations.
Yet with such tremendous issues at stake, the
United Nations has tried to keep up the pretense
that aggression by Chinese Communists is different
from aggression by North Korean Communists, and
that It would be unwise to do anything that might
annoy the Red Government of Mao Tze-tung
The wishful theory that Mao or his bosses in
Moscow, could be made to see reason by kid glove
handling in the U.N should have been abandoned
weeks ago. Certainly, that Soviet delegate
Andrei VishinSly has blasted the latest proposal
OF Is Asiatc nations for halt at the 38th Parallel
the delegates from the free nations ought to con-
clude that there's nothing to be gained by refusing
to face the fact of Chinese Red aggression.
Even with upward of half "a million Chinese
troops in Northern Korea, and more pouring across
the Manchurian border Vishinsly sticks to the fan
tastic lie that the armed forces of Communist China
are not fighting on the side of North Korea
That shows what Russia and her stooges have
been trying to do in the U.N BY dealing in lies so
stupendous as to defy all reason, they have elini-
mated any chance that reasonable compromise
could be reached
1t is fact that the Chinese Communist troops
have been fighting in Korea for more than month.
They have not been fighting simply against the
United States, they put it, but have been oppos-
ing United Nations Army acting under United
Nations orders
Smyrna times., 1950-12-21

But it was not until last week that the Security
Council got around to voting resolution asking
them to get out of Korea and assuring them at the
time, that their own legitimate interests would
be safeguarded. It obvious from the start that
Russia would veto this move.
The delay in pressing for Security Council action
was bad enough. 1t worse that time was lost in
presenting the same resolution to the General As
sembly, where the veto cannot block it. But worst
of all is the REFUSAL even now to name the Chinese
Communists as aggressors, and to demand firmly
that they get out.
No realistic person expects the Reds to obey any
U.N mandate that they don't like A strong resolu-
ton from the General Assembly at this late stage
probably would have little effect on the fighting in
Korea
But the UN. has to maintain the principles it
stood up for couageously at the beginning of the
Korean war; 1t could survive military defeat in
Korea if that should come, but it could never sur
vive compromise of the very principles which
the world organization was founded.
The 81 nations which voted recently to take up
the question of Chinese intervention know that it
is deliberate, naked aggression. They know that
the Chinese Reds and their Russian hackers are
defying the will of majority of the nations of the
world. They know, too that there will never be any
collective security if the free nations refuse to take
stand on the principles that have brought them
together.
tits time the members of the in. recognized that
the fate of the world organization and its hopes for
the future depend on how it meets the question of
the Chinese in Korea. At least there should be no
more delay in branding the Chinese Communists
as aggressors and telling them to get out (from The
Phifsdelptia Inquirer)
