G. B. Show Made Unique
Contribution To Labor

New York (LPA)-Before you
and we were born, the late George
Bernard Shaw, the world-famous
writer, was busy stuffing envelopes
and working hard to get people in
terested in his ideas about labor.
This unusual angle on Bernard
Shaw, and his unique contributions
to the labor movement, were dis
cussed by Mark Starr, educational
director of the International Lad
les Garment Workers Union-AFL
on radio station WFDR, November
"a.
Since Shaw died at 90 early in
November, his influence as a liter
ary figure, as a dramatist, and as
a wit has been widely discussed,
and his influence on labor largely
neglected. Starr, who was born in
England, the son of miner, and
grew up, was educated and worked
in that country, drew on his per-
sonal experience to tell about it.
Shaw was "the guy who turned
things upside down even if he
agreed with you," Starr explained.
"He was an embarrassment, very
often, to both the people he sup
ported and the people he opposed.
If he was on your side, it was for
very unusual reasons"
Starr described the mans role as
that of "the catfish to the goldfish"
In the old days, fishermen built
tanks in their ships into which they
dumped Goldfish, keeping them alive
until they got into port. They
found, however, that the fish ar
rived flat, flabby and limp, though
well fed, and in apparent health.
The problem wasn't solved until
one fisherman of genius guessed
that the cod lived too contentedly
in the tanks. So he put catfish
into each tank, and found that his
cod came to market firm, brisk and
wholesome. The one word to typify
Shaw, Starr said, is catfish"
Shaw's In tie | Ii G e n t Woman's
Guide To Socialism, and Economic
What's What are certainly things
from which labor people can get
a lot of good, suggestive ideas.
Starr said.
"Shaw was an eccentric. He said
a lot of critical things which re-
action would think dangerous. So,
what did they do? They laughed
him off"
In the play PYGMALION, he
shows how you could take a poor
drab girl out of the gutter and,
with a few months of English
training, pass her off as a Duchess.
"You see the dynamite that's
there %, Starr asked. "You see the
challenge that's there-particular-
ly in caste-ridden England and
Europe? Now, that's the sort of
thing that Shaw was always doing.
People that didn't like his ideas
admired his wit and laughed at his
plays"

The Dromotics Of Democracy
By RUTH TAYLOR

Do you know what / think is the
matter with us? / think we are
plain everyday lazy!
Here we have the best story in
the world to tell-the most drama
tic, the most appealing-the story
Of Democracy.
But do we tell it? No. We let the
Communists with their sophistries,
their snide slurs, their soap-opera
sham successes, their swindle stor-
les, steal the spotlight while we sit
idly by.
The story Of Democracy is a
dramatic story. 1t is the story of
the trek of people who wanted
freedom, who came not from one
country but from all Europe. Who
were not Of one religion, but Of all
religions. Who had different back
grounds, different mores, different
traditions-but all of whom wanted
one thing-freedom to think, to
live, to worship as free men.
The story of Democracy is a
dramatic story. 1t is the story Of
men who carved, not an empire, but
a nation of homes out Of a wilder
ness, who fought savages, pestil-
ence, famine-even Civil War-to
build a nation united from sea to
sea.
The story of Democracy is a
dramatic story. 1t is the story of
men who built a country where the
aristocracy was an aristocracy of
brains and ability rather than Of

considered program which is likely
to result in unemployment and
earnings losses for our members.
"We are convinced that the FEC
order approving the CHS color
system is ill-founded and will
create violent repercuss N S
throughout the industry in which
our members are employed. To eli
inmate confusion in the present
TV market and to guarantee stabil-
ity of production, we are joining in
this action and shall urge issuance
of the injunction against the Fed

ship"
Says Pictures Too Small
Darling said further that the
CHS system will permit a maxi
mum picture of only 121a inches
and pointed out that the public
wants bigger and clearer pictures,
is not now buying small sets and
will not be satisfied with smaller
pictures even though they may be
in color.
The union head said other objec-
tions were the cost of converting|
and adapting existing TV receivers
to afford reception of CHS color
broadcasts and the size of the mec-
hanical color adapters proposed byl
CHS, which he declared are so largeI
and cumbersome they will conflict
with the design of ordinary house
hold furniture.

CALF. UNIONS FIGHT
BANNING OF LOUDSPEAKERS

Fresno, Calf. (LPA)-The Cal
ifornia State Federation of Labor
AFL is seeking an injunction in
States Superior Court against the
recently enacted anti-noise ordin-
ance in Fresno county.
The ordinance was adopted to
try and break the October strike of
AFL cotton pickers by prohibit
ing the use of loud speakers on
highways and country roads. This
eliminated the caravan picketing
technique of the National Farm
Labor Union because loudspeakers
on trucks were used to call laborers
from the fields.

Comment On
World Events

Lenin's words that religion is
opium for the people" is a gener-
ally known Bolshevik slogan by
now. Despite the changed attitude
towards the Orthodox Church for
reasons Of expediency during the
war, this slogan continues to be a
basic doctrine Of Communist edu-
cation. Amy number of quotations
from the Soviet and satellite press
and radio can be adduced to prove
that within the Communist party
no alteration of attitude towards
religion has taken place.
But, nevertheless, religion is con-
sidered a handy means Of throwing
dust into the eyes Of the rest of
the world. While this "opium" is
absolutely forbidden for home con-
sumption, substantial doses of it,
are doled out TO westerners on
every occasion that presents itself.
The various churches within the
Soviet Union are pushed very much
to the fore whenever they might
be useful in furthering aims Of
foreign policy.
Thus in August 3 partriarchs-
of the Russian, Georgian and Arm
enian Churches-met in Tiflis in
order to appeal to the faithful to
sign the Stockholm appeal.

At the recent "peace congress-"
in Moscow among others the fol-
lowing church dignitaries were
elected to represent Russia at the
"world peace congress-" which was
scheduled for Sheffield, England,
but was transferred to Warsaw
when Great Britain refused to adj
nit many of the Communist dele
gates: George VI, the Catholics of
all Armenians; Ishan Babakhan ibn
Abdul Medzhidkhan, multi, chair
man of the clerical board of all
Moslems in Central Asia and Kaz-
Nikolai, metropolitan of
Krutitsy and Kolomna; Gustav
Turs, archbishop of the Evangelic-
al Lutheran Church of Latvia.
Long addresses were delivered att
the congress by Metropolitan Niko-
lai who attacked the Pope and thel
Catholic Church for belonging tol
the war camp, by Father |. A.
Stankevicius (Catholic), head of
the Kaunas archbishopric in Lith-
uania, and Archbishop G. Tursl
who spoke for the Lutherans. All
praised Stain and called upon all
and sundry to engage in the strug-
gle for peace headed by the Soviet
Union.
Now it remains to be seen how
dazed the West will be by this dose
of the dangerous narcotic"
!. \ =
The notion, assiduously spread
by Communists and their sympath-
izers, that Communist rule is in
evitable, that it is "the wave ofl
the future" was blasted by the
Houston AFL convention, which |
said:
"The hordes of Communist total |
itarianism are no more invinciblel
than the savage legions of Nazi- |
totalitarianism. In In
dia, Japan and Indonesia, the Com
munist wreckers have lost ground, |
while the democratic forces have
gained in the clarity of their out
look and the solidarity of their
ranks. Thanks to the Marshall Plan
and the hard work of the laboringl
masses, Europe has registered
great economic progress.
among the Western Europeanl
peoples there is growing sense of
unity and urgency for joint action
as revealed in the Atlantic Pact,
,he European Payments Union and
he projected Schuman Plan to
pool their coal resources and steel
facilities"
Remember the above the next
line you hear any talk of Com
nunist "invincibility."
