AFL Political LEAGUE
Observation-Disclosures
OF Campaign Funds
BY the Assoeiated Press

MIAMI BEACH, Fla, Feb. l.
AFL leaders drafted 1850 political
plans today with some hints that
they are worried about raising
campaign funds.
The time is early for fall con-
gressional election races, but con-
tributions from AFL members
haven't been coming in as fast as
expected.
A drive for So contributions for
the AFL's political branch, Labor s
League for Political Education
has brought in only about 0,000,
it is reported Expenses in put
ting on the contribution drive
since it was started in October
were $4,000.
Seek Several Million.
Joseph D. keenan,, the political
leagues director, said it expects
to raise several million dollars. If
all the AFLs claimed 100000
members gave the 50 asked, Mr..
keenan, would have no money
troubles.
The league expects to steer clear
of party fights of choosing can
didates this spring.
These are the contests over Sc
lecting Democratic candidates,
mainly, to oppose Republican
nominees later on-although the
AFL intends to support some Re-
publicans, including Senator
Morse, Republican, of Oregon.
One reason given for steering
clear of these contests is to save
money for the general election
races next fall.
Another is to avoid creating so
much diSsension within party
that it will be hard to build solid
support for nominee once
chosen.
To Fight Taft.
This means the AFL doesn't in
tend to take very active part, in
choosing a Democratic candidate
to oppose Senator Taft, Repub-
lican, of Ohio, even though it ex-
poets to support the Democratic
nominee, whoever he may be.
But the AFL's league does in
tend to get into party scraps over
choosing candidates in dominant
party sectors. particularly in the
South.

21op Steel Companies
Boost Profits DESPITE
Drop in Total Sales
BY the Assoeiuted Press

NEW YORK, Feb. 9.-The larg-
est steel producers in the Nation
have emerged from strike-trou-
bled 1949 with earnings still at
relatively favorable levels.
The United States Steel Corp,
which turns out about a third of
total steel produced in the coun-
try, reported yesterday it's 1949
earnings we're the highest in 20
yearS-$165, ,958,806.
The second-ranking Bethlehem
Steel Corp. reported last week
record 1949 income of $99 ,283 500.
Both achieved the reported
earnings on total sales which fell
short of their 1948 level. For
United States Steel the decline
was from $2,48l, ,508,535 in 1948
to $2,302, ,443,094 in 1949.
Return on Sales Raised.
Big Steel lifted it's return on
sales from So per cent in 1948
to 70 per cent last year; Beth
lehem had return of 7.8 per cent
in 1949 against SO per cent in
the previous year.
Lesser companies didn't do quite
AS well, however. Republic Steel
Corp, third largest producer, re-
ported today its return of 7 per
cent on sales resulted in net in
come for l949 of $46,142,323
against s46,438, ,382 in 1e4S.
And the fourth-ranking Jones
Il Laughlin Steel Corp. reported
sharper decline in net income
$20,961,245 last year compared
with $3l ,222,451 a year earlier.
Dividend Raised.
Chairman Irving S. Olds of
United States Steel told news
conference yesterday, after direc-
tors of the corporation had voted
to increase the dividend on COM
mon stock to IS cents from sol
cents, that he expected construc-
ton expenditures this year would
nearly equal the $4,000, 900
spent in 1949.
Estimates of what the strike of
last October cost the steel COM
panies varied. Mr.. OldS put the
direct cost" to United States
Steel at $3O,000,000, not including
loss of income from inability to
ship steel during the strike. Beth
1ehem's chairman. E. G. Grace.
said his company lost about s12,-
100000 in the strike.
Without estimating the strikes
cost, Republic said part of the
expense was charged to the COM
panys existing contingency re-
serves. !

considering CantwelPS illness,
the language is very often crude
almost to the point of being
offensive. Buff suppose no more
so than we would find in real

On the other hand it is hard to

Are You Part
Time Citizen?
By Ruth Taylor


DEING A citizen in a democ-
racy is a full time job. In
ether forms of government
the citizenry m k e up the
background, appearing only
in mob scenes to "yes" the
rulers of the nation.
In a democracy there is no
room for part time citizens.
Our government is us-what
we make of it. Ours is the
fault if the wheels of govern
ment do not run smoothly, for
the laws we make are the
roadbed, and the men we elect
are the machine.
Do you fulfill all your du-
ties as a voter? Do you show
up just at election time to cast
your vote without due consid-
Grafton of the full qualifica-
tions, record and principles of
all candidates? Do you neglect
to help select the proper can
didates at the primaries? Are
you a part time citizen?
Do you obey the laws you
have had hand in making?
Is your only thought, when
you break what seems like an
inconsequential little law, how
you can get away with it? Are
you a part time citizen?
Do you evince interest in all
issues-or only in those prob
lens which directly concern
you, and then o b e ct when
other groups do the same and
infringe on your prerogatives?
Only as citizens work for the
common good of all can dem
ocracy progress. Are you a
part time citizen?
Do you lend an ear to sub
versive elements who tell you
how much better conditions
are or would be for you were
there a different form of gov
ernment? Do you thoughtless-
ly pass on these tales without
checking on their accuracy or
considering their source? Are
you a part time citizen?
Do you stand up for democ-
racy or do you condemn its
mistakes without conSidera-
ton of the good it has to of
fer? Do you stress only its
shortcomings and n ever its
long range program which,
slowly but surely, and in spite
of stumblings, determinations
and d tours has made this
country of ours the best in
which to live. Are you a part
time citizen?
Now as never b o r e the
United States needs the full
time allegiance of all of its
people. Don't be a part time
