erative Potters and the United
States Association doing every
thing within their power to have
governmental u t horiti e and
agencies meet this situation If VIC
are to have future existence as
American potters and to live in
keeping with American ways.
There has been some criticism Of
the employers for not having made
use Of the escape clause in the tar
iff regulation which is supposed to
provide an approach for relief in
extremely inequitable foreign com
petition. The facts are, no industry
or individual complainant has been
given relief in their foreign com
petition problem through this
clause in the tariff act. The record
will show that those charged with
the power to act, simply will not
give the relief which in so many
instances has been asked for and
has regularly ended in vain plead
ings. We would like to state here
and now that too many members,
of both political parties in Con
gress, have attempted TO justify
their failure to bring about favor
able action in our case by telling
our members that their employers
are responsible for the depression,
due to the flooding Of our markets
with these Objectionable wares, be
cause they have not proceeded
through the escape clause. This Is
the rankest and most vicious of
political propaganda on the part OF
individuals in Congress who want
to cover up their own shortcom-
ings, as to their helplessness tc
bring about protection Of American
pottery workers living standards.
The afternoon session Of the
opening days proceedings was de
voted to listing the personnel Of
the various committees, issuing
convention badges and reading Of

Bell On Strike
Against Public;
Union Reports

Dallas, Texas (LPA)-A strike
against the public by the Bell tele-
phone system is reported by Com
munications Workers of America
in its current newsletter.
Despite its many crocodile tears
concerning the public interest
whenever the union raises a single
demand" the newsletter points
out, "the Bell System has gone on
strike against the same public. Had
the union taken such action, ban
ner headlines would have streamed
across the daily press of the ma
ton. But, since the strike marks
company action, the story was to
be found only on the financial
pages Of the New York Times"
Southwestern Bell has sought
rates increases in Dallas amount
ing to 45R. 1t was granted 23%
by the Dallas City Council. (Rate
regulation in Texas is by local
communities.) The company, CWA
"has stated bluntly that
it will cease to expand services
and will not provide facilities to a
waiting list of $4,000 applicants
for telephone service"
This despite the fact that, ac-
cording to the unions, the overall
position of Southwestern Bell is
excellent" The company made
over S16,000,000 last year.

Excise Levies SIoshed In New
Tax Bill: Vote Due June ~

washington LPA)-Snafp cuts
in sales taxes on luggage, jewelry,
furs, cosmetics, admissions, cab
aret tabs, cigars, tires, auto parts,
refrigerators, cameras, phone calls
and railroad fares are among the
features of the 1850 tax bill, ap-
proved June % by the House tax
writing committee. Passage with
out change is expected, after two
days debate, probably on June 20.
The sales tax cuts are nearly
balanced by increases in the taxes
on corporations with yearly in
comes over $4,000, and by clos
ing several loopholes through
which life insurance companies,
stock spectators, and non-profit
institutions operating businesses,
managed to escape paying their
share in the past.
The following taxes on manufac-
turers' sales would be cut, and also
may or may not be passed on to
buyers: on tires and inner tubes,
on auto parts or accessories, on
musical instruments, household re-
frigerators, childen's toys and play
items used by schools, on cameras
and film, business and store mac
hines. The 10 percent tax on these
electric, gas and oil appliances has
been removed in the bill: house
hold cooking stoves and water
heaters, heating pads and blankets,
electric baby bottle warmers, hand
irons, electric air space heaters
and electric toasters.
Phone toll taxes, which show up
so big on monthly household bills,
would be cut. On calls more than
24c, tax is cut from 25 percent to
20 percent. On calls less than 25c,
tax is cut from Is to 10 percent.
Domestic telegram taxes are re-
duced from 25 percent to 10 per-
cent of the cost of the wire. Local
household telephone service bills
are to be taxed 10 percent instead
of Is percent.
When you buy a train, bus or
plane ticket, you'll pay 10 per-
cent tax instead of the present Is
percent.
All together, these tax cuts are
to add up to about $780,
100000 less revenue for the fed
eral government. Higher taxes for
the big corporations will bring inl
about $433,O00,0O0, and another|
SAGE, ,O00,0O0 will be made up from|
closing some loopholes.
Left untouched are the scand-
alous depletion allowances for theI
oil industry, which President Tru-
man had asked Congress to cut.
The sales tax cuts lop off $12,-
100000 in income that isn't made |
up in tax increases and the tight |
ening of present tax provisions, the
experts estimate.
After the tax bill passes theI
House, the Senate Finance COM
mittee is expected to hold hearings

Politics Is The Big Theme At The
Mime SOTO Doctors Convention

Duluth, MINI. LPA)-Medicine
ran poor second to politics at the
annual convention of the Mime
sofa State Medical Association
here. The major discussion-on
and off the convention floor--was
the associations offensive against
national and cooperative public
health measures.
A committee on "public health
education" reported distributing ], ;
248,5 pieces of literature attack
ing public health plans as Social
lied medicine. The literature in.
cluded nearly 100000 copies of
Health News and Views" mailed
to selected families" among Min
nesota labor groups and farmer
organizations.
The committee, which once
sought to bribe Minnesota news
papers by offering trade advertis-
ing for editorials, reported proud
ly that county medical societies
paid cash for advertisements con-
/ emning government interfer-
ence" in medicine in 1877 Minnesota
newspapers. In addition, the com
nittee offered speakers to civic
,lubs, farm groups and women's
organizations.
One Of it's best tricks was offer
ing as a lecturer DR.. Mitrofan
Smorszczok, a Polish DIP doctor,
who told So audiences about his un-
happy experiences in Soviet Po-
and. The idea was, it seems, to
imply that President Truman was
seeking to bring about these con-
ditions in the United States.
One Of the reports revealed that
the federal department of justice
has investigated the antics of the
st. Louis County (Duluth) Medi-
al Society. 1t was learned later
hat federal agents were probing
an attempt by the society to bar
from membership three doctors
Who are affiliated with the Arrow
head Health Center, a cooperative
prepayment group. The center,
with some $500 members, was
established to serve workers whose
unions had won welfare contracts.
A special committee Of doctors
reported on efforts to establish
minimum standards" for CONNER
cial health insurance contracts
standards which apparently in
cluded absolute control by the doc
tors without any kind of represent
alton of the consumer patient.
One report stated that the Am
erican Medical Associations s25-
a-year membership dues, to finance
propaganda activities, had been
welcomed by Minnesota doctors.
But, just to make sure of the well
come, the state association asked
its county affiliates to consider
making the national dues payment
compulsory - by dropping from
membership doctors who refused to
pay the anti-public health dues.
