He was admitted to the clinic

Nijinsky, native of Russia, had
come to England in his long search
for mental health. His mind
snapped in 1919, when he was at
the height of his career. Many
critics unhesitatingly called him
the greatest dancer who ever lived.
His devoted wife, Romola, had
nursed him throughout his long
years of mental darkness.
His condition was diagnosed in

HickenIooper Denies
Tydings' Appraisal
Of FBI Summary
By the Assoeiofed Press

Senate investigators split on a
stormy issue today-whether FBI
records completely clear Owen
baltimore, accused by Senator Nc
Carthy of being a Communist spy.
Any conclusion that the records
do entirely absolve Mr.. baltimore
is "unwarranted." said Senator
Hickenlooper. Republican, of Iowa.
On the other hand, Senator
Tydings. Democrat, of Maryland
declared he is standing by his
statement that the FBI data put
Mr.. baltimore completely in the
clear"
Senator Tydings heads the SEN
ate Foreign Relations Subcommit-
tee which is investigating the
charges brought by Senator Nc

Senator Hickenlooper is a men,

mittee, which two days ago heard

When Mr.. baltimore concluded
his sworn testimony. Senator Tyd-
ings told him that four members
OF the committee-all but Sena-
tor Hickenlooper-had been given
complete summary of the FBI's
baltimore file. Senator Hicken-
looper was out of town the day
FBI Director j. Edgar Hoover and
Attorney General McGrath pre-
sented the analysis to the group.
Senator Tydings told Mr.. Latti-
more it was universal opinion of
the committee members who were
present. and all others in the
room-he later named Mr.. Hoover
and Mr.. McGrath-that there
was nothing in that file to show
that you were a Communist or
ever had been a Communist, or
that you were in any way con-
nected with any espionage in
formation or charges" Then SEN
ator Tydings added:

Visits Justice Department.
Yesterday Senator Hickenlooper
went to the Justice Department
and Attorney General McGrath
showed him the summary on Mr..
baltimore which the other men,
bers saw two weeks ago. When he
got back to the Capitol, Senator
Hickenlooper put out a statement
saying:
II completely disagree with
Senator Tydings' statement with
reference to DR.. baltimore that
the FBI puts you completely, up
to this moment at least. in the
clear I think that such a con-
clusion is unwarranted.
Il want to make it clear that I
am not making any final con-
clusions either way in the case of
DR.. baltimore. I am convinced,
however. that, based on all the
information which I have at this
time. a full examination of the
actual investigative file of DR..
baltimore. together with all other
available information, is essential
before either the subcommittee or
any member is justified in max
ing any final conclusions.
Senator Hickenlooper then went
on to challenge Senator Tydings'
assertion that Mr.. Hoover and Mr..
McGrath arrived at the same con-
clusion regarding Mr.. baltimore

Tdft Opposes Plan He Once Pleaded
For NLRB Counsel

The more Sen Robert Taft (It, Ohio) talks the
confused heand the rest of usget Take this example,
Last year when the Senate debating repeal of the
Taft-artley Act Taft said the Counsel of the National
Labor Relations Board should be subordnated to the board
itself
This year President Truman recommended transfer of
the Counses powers to the NRB What is Taft doing? He
is fighting the proposal
Truman made the recommendation part of his pro-
gram to carry out the governmental reorganization plans
drafted by the Hoover Commission.
Liberals realize that the division of authority which
suits from having Counsel apart from the NRB not only
makes for bad administration but also for chaotic labor
management relations
Robert Denham is General Counsel His views are flag
ranty anti-labor
Why has Taft changed his views? Does anyone know?
Can anyone follow his piggly-wiggly reasoning?

Why Doctors Are Scurce

One of the proposals of the Presidents health program
would help more young persons become doctors.
Does the country need them? Look at these figures
Fortyfive years ago, SIP more M.D.S were graduated
than graduated in 919 There were 81 more medical
schools then than were in existence last year. and there
2,447 more students studying medicine
Yet the American Medical Association keeps screaming
that the u has doctors per capita than any other
country The implication, of course, is that we don't need
any more new ones than we've been getting from the medical
colleges
The truth is that the medical brass doesn't like compe
ton any more than their lobby brohershe real estate

Why Nonunionism Today?

Why is it we have much nonunionsm in these days
when unions are so widely known?
The greatest drawback the efforts of labor to secure
simple justice the selfish opposition of the people who
employ u.s. but the refusal of perhaps majority OF those
who labor for living to act in accord with those who have
organized for mutual protection 1t is this large portion OF
nonunon people who extent render futile the MANY
efforts put forth to better condition. and it is knowledge
of this fact that often keeps from asserting their right
During slow business periods this condition encourages
unfair employers to heap abuses upon us.
The cause and remedy for nonunionism should be stud
led by all union people We know all people desire good
wages and conditions 1t strange therefore, that
many of them will not turn their hand to bring about these
better things for themselves but just sit and wait until
the union people make the sacrifice and do all the suffering
that is to be done.
We believe many still stay out because of fearmaybe
from lack of understanding. There are also the
tools of the boss who will become union But the
union people who fully recognize the value and Importance
of the unon yet because they reap all the benefits of
the union without individual cost and without mourning the
ill will of the employer, stay the ousidethese the
meanest nonunionists of them all.
