VICTORY IN GM
HAILED AS END
OF CONNIE UE

Washington (LPA) - The ten
year hold Of the Communist-dom-
mated United Electrical Workers
has been broken, Int'l Union Of
Electrical, Radio & Machine Work
ers declared when results were an
nounced March ! Of five NLRB
elections held throughout the Gen
eral Motors chain.
BY more than eight to one, IUE
swept the UE out Of GIN in the
first major NLRB election since
the new electrical workers union
was chartered last November. The
overwhelming victory was hailed
by 1UE leaders as portent Of
things to come in Westinghouse
and General Electric where elec-
tions have not yet been held.
James 3. Carey, chairman Of the
IUE administrative committee, an
nounced an agreement with United
Auto Workers which calls for joint
consultation on contract demands
in General Motors and provides
that neither union will sign new
contract without the sanction Of
the other. The agreement is ex-
pected to have a definite effect on
wages in GIN, where UE had con-
sistently signed contracts behind
the back of the auto workers, cut
ting the wage scale throughout the
company's plants.
Election results in the five GIN
plants polled were: Frigidaire,
Dayton: IUE, 10,86O; UE, 1416;
no union, 583. Delco Products, Day
ton: IUE, 5098; UE, 760; no union,
418. Packard Electric, Warren,
Ohio: IUE, 3273; UE, 215; no
union, ia. Delco Appliance, ROch-
ester, NY: IUE, 1889; UE, 1876;
no union, 119. Delco-Remy, New
IUE, 927; UE not on
ballot; no union, 6.
IhlS Is more tndn simply Ine
of the end of the Com
munist control over the half-million
men and women in the electrical,
radio and machine industry" Carey
said. "Wiping UE out of the first
of the three big chains by count
of better than eight to one means
we have won more than one-third
of the battle. We know that the
workers in Westinghouse and Gen
eral Electric are no more commun-
istic than those in GIN, and that
they will repudiate Kremlin dicta-
ton over their economic lives as
thoroughly as did the GIN en-
ployes."

AFL SAYS TRUMAN BACKS
SHIP SUBSIDY MEASURE

Washington (LPA) - President
Truman endorsed in principle a
Senate bill providing ship construc-
tion subsidies and tax deferments.
AFL President William Green told
reporters after a visit to the White
House. Green was accompanied by
Charles j. MacGowan, president of
the Boilermakers, Iron Shipbuild-
ers & Helpers, and James A.
Brownlow, secretary-treasurer of
the AFL's Metal Trades Depart
ment.
If America is to have a first
class merchant marine, it will have
to be subsidized, MacGowan said.
The bill the labor leaders favor
would allow American shipbuilders
and ship operators to meet foreign
competition. Employment in ship
yards here and aboard US-flag
ships has slumped badly in the last
three years.
amendments, some involving ques-
tions which could throw heavy
burden of Interpretation on the
courts. One amendment, approved
by a voice vote, would exempt the
Atomic Energy Commission, its
contractors and licensees from the
Fair Employment Practice princi-
pie.
The complete cynicism of the
Southern Democrats was most
clearly demonstrated in the switch
of nearly every opponent of gen
uine FEPC between the early
morning of Feb. % and noon. Early
in the morning when the Republi-
can-Dixie coalition substituted the
Mcconnell amendment for the Ad
ministration bill, every southern
Democrat supported Mcconnell
Only a few hours later, when they
were voting to pass the Mcconnell
bill itself, they did an about-face
and opposed the bill. More thar
one southerner, in debate, indicat-
ed there was no question of prin
ciple, but only politics" in the
decisions on how to vote.
The vote to substitute McCon-
nelPs toothless bill for the FEPC
bill approved by the House Labor
Committee was 221 to ITS. On this
key test of the principle that the
FEP Commission should have pow
er to obtain court orders, virtually
every Dixiecrat cheerfully chose
the harmless Mcconnell bill. Then
to be sure their home-consumption
voting record looked "clean," they
went on record against the final
bill.
Eloquent pleas for a genuine
FEPC measure were made in the
course of the long session. Argu-
nents for FEPC were advanced by
Reps. Andrew Biemiller Cd, Wis.,:

HOUSING PROGRAM KILLED

South Bend, Ind. tLPA)-A solid
block of Republican councilmen
backed by the Commerce Assn, real
estate and insurance firms, build
ing contractors, and the County
Medical Society rejected $11,OOO,-
900 of Federal funds for a low
cost housing project for South
Bend. All the Democratic council
men voted for the project, which
was urged by CIO and AFL unions,
and various veterans groups and
religious organizations on the
ground that private industry has
failed to provide the housing need
ed by the community.

III ndfu-nlICllS dlIdCh Oil Cofil-
munism and it's agents in the
United States, the UMW's Anth-
racite District News, Hazelton,
Pa, takes Uncle Sam to task for
permitting the Russian government
to publish and circularize the
USSR Information Bulletin on Am
erican, soil. This slick publication,
editor George Curilla states, "goes
not only to the American pinkos
but is sent through the U. S. mails
to all labor publications, and per-
haps to many daily newspapers. 1t
is completely devoted to the Com
munist party line"
Editor Curilla's criticism is par
ticularly significant at a time
when the coal conflict not only
works bitter hardship on our min
ers but carries a distinct threat to
the entire national economy. OBJ
viously, the communists like to
reap where others have sown. What
better way than to stir up trouble
by telling tall tales about the
splendid living and working condi-
tions of the miners in the Soviet
paradise?
There appeared in the current
issue of this propaganda sheet, so
the Hazelton colleague writes, "a
really fantastic yarn about Soviet
mine workers. Titled Soviet Min
ers, Honored, Highly Paid, Have
Full Security for Life the story
if you believed it-would be incen-
tive enough to board the next
rocket plane for the Karl Marx
Colliery in the Stain region"
"For the red 1--WE mean
black coal mines, to quote
from the grotesque piece, men
working underground in the
Soviet colleries earn $1,886.79
per month"; And this, if you
please is in terms of American
dollars and exclusive of, and
again quote, 'the many benefits
and social security that he (the
miner) gets without cost
"The hewers of fuel, as the
red rag refers to the Russian
miners, are housed in apart
ment buildings (according to
the illustrations) on a par with
those on Central Park West,

Art Exhibit
At Opening OF
Thrift Shop

A one-man exhibit of water
color paintings of Arizona and
Cape Cod will highlight the open
ing week of the Montgomery Coun-
ty Thrift Shop in Bethesda.
Beginning next Tuesday the pic
lures of Mrs. Henry Gibbs of Ken
wood will be on exhibition to the
public until the end of the week.
Of some 20 items being shown
the majority were painted last
winter in Tucson, Arizona where
the artist studied with Gerry
Pierce. Others are scenes of the
colorful bay city of Guaymas,
Mexico, and Cape Cod.
The show has no theme. A
striking feature is it's wide range
of subjects and interesting color
contrast afforded by the strong
red hue of the Arizona desert and
soft blue tones of the Cape Cod
scene.
The exhibit will close Saturday

Montgomery SideIights
ELSIE WHITE HAINES

Truly there is nothing new I'M
der the sun" for while many are
calling Washington's first "Play-
house-In- The-Round" a new stag
ing medium, the idea really reaches
back thousands of years. Early
peoples performed their drama-like
rituals around a "stage" that was
no more than a flattened space in
their midst. The Greeks - the
Middle Ages = the Spanish Rem
aissance - the Shakespeare thea
ter, were all based on the same
direct contact between actor and
player.
Newly restyled and air con-
d;tioned the Hippodrome at New
York Ave-, and 9th Street, for
merly movie theater, made its
debut Wednesday night as Arena
Stage founded by Edward Mangum
and Zelda Fichandler and financed
by Washingtonians - students,
teachers, lawyers, doctors, govern
ment workers and housewives. We
attended the Thursday evening
performance and found it not only
a fascinating novelty but good en-
tertainment.
After Olney closes we predict
that many local people will be
journeying into the District to at
tend the shows = indeed we saw
several from Rockville Thursday
night.
AS the stage is in the center of
the arena, with the audience oc-
cupying the $50 reserved seats on
four sides, no spectator is more
than seven rows from the stage. If
you happen to get seat on the
same level with the stage you may
get your toes stepped on by the
actors you are that close. We
got a good smoker at what hap

pened to late corners - those crea-
lures that make you miss the best
of scene while you stand up to
let them into their seats they
just had to stand in the lobby un-
til the end of a scene! They can't
be seated - for with the playing
area in the middle of the house
the late conner might have to walk
right through the play to reach
his seat. Conversely = don't try
to leave before the play is over
unless you dare to walk through
the playing area.
For its first production Arena
Stage chose Oliver Goldsmith's
classic comedy "She Stops To
Conquer" descriptively subtitled
"The Mistakes of a Night" based
on an incident in Goldsmith's boy
hood = it has been said that it's
first production in America was
probably at the John Street Thea
ter in New York City, August 2,
1773. While the play is almost as
old as its staging, we thoroughly
enjoyed it. The antics of Lester
Rawlins as Tony Lumpkin (who
incidentally stole the show proved
that juveniles of two centuries ago
were just as much of problem to
