FEPC Bill For
Senate May 8

WASHINGTON (LPA) - The
fight over whether TO take up
the bill for a Fair Employment
Practice Commission will break
on the Senate floor May 8, and
Democratic leader Scott Lucas
ID. Ill.) intends to try to close
off debate within a few days.
Lucas announced the long-de-
layed FEPC bill would finally
get break, after a meeting of
the Democratic policy committee
May 2.
Immediately after voting on
funds for another year of the
Marshall Plan ends Friday eve
ming, May 5, Lucas announced
he'll move to take up the FEPC
bill. Southerners and some Re-
.publicans are expected to object,
and the first test of the new
cloture rule will come then. 1t
requires majority of the mem
berS of the Senate to cut off de-
bate and get vote, under the
Wherry cloture rule adopted
early in the 81st Congress.
Heavy absenteeism-there were
73 Senators excused from the
session of the Senate on the day
the Democratic policy committee
met-will make it extremely diff
ficult to vote cloture. Until that
is done, though, no direct debate
on the FEPC proposal can take
place. If he's licked the first
time, Lucas said, he'll try again
in few days.
Southerners might try to defy
Lucas and move to substitute So
cial security Improvements for
the FEPC measure. In addition,
they can attempt to push two
privileged" matters which could
interrupt debate on FEPC-the
basing- point price-fixing bill
conference report, on which ex-
tended debate is expected, or the
proposal by Sen. Robert Taft to
reject the Presidents reorganiza-
ton plan which would abolish
the post of general counsel Rob-
ert Denham on NLRB. Taft has
served notice he'll try to bring
it up on May 10. UnioniSts are
working hard to defeat his mo-
tion, and if they're successful on
the Senate side, strategy of the
anti-labor men will be to try to
bring it up in the House before
May %, the deadline when it
will go into effect unless disap-
proved by one house of Con-
gress.

staff and staff members in the
Die Cast Department headed by
Vice e-President Richard Gosser,
have been in contact with the
Mine Mill Local in the plant
since 1948. A Labor Board cleo
ton held a year ago was lost as
a result of extravagant promises
made by the Mine Mill organ
izers and the former Chief Stew
ard of the plant. Following the
election, not only were the
promises of Mine Mill not kept,
but working conditions were
worsened.
The victorious struggle OF the
Rupert die casting workers to
obtain legitimate union to rep
resent them was marred by the
killing of one of the UAW sup
porters in the plant, Leland
Martin, Al years old and the
father of two children. The
Company was apparently very
anxious to keep Mine Mill as
the bargaining agent and on
March 81, IL of the key people
were discharged.
Representatives of the Re-
gional staff of the UAW-CIO,
between Friday and Monday
morning, tried every way posi-
BILE to get the IL people rein
stated, but were unsuccessful.
On Monday morning, April B.,
the IL discharged employees
picketed the plant. None of the
other $50 employees crossed the
picket line. The picket line con-
tinued from Monday through
Wednesday without incident. On
Tuesday, April 4, there was an
NLRB hearing as result of the
petition that had been signed on
March 16. The company OBJ
jected to the election, contend
ing that the Mine Mill contract
was a bar to the election. No
consent election could be ar
ranged and the matter was left
for formal hearing. Wednes-
day, April 5, the Electric Spray
it Company of Sheboygan, Wis,
a customer of Rupert Die Cast
ing, obtained a writ of replevin
in circuit court in Kansas City
to obtain certain parts, fixtures,
layout gauges and machinery.
The writ was executed by the
Sheriff together with the en-
ployees of the Sprayit Company
and in the course of the truck

Taft Startles
Own Followers

COLUMBUS, OHIO - In two
remarkable interviews recently,
Senator Robert A. Taft has re-
vealed:
l. AS a minority leader, he
believes he has no RESPONSE
bility for presenting program"
to the country.
2. He believes President Tru-
man guilty of an unstated crime
because the President lis stub
born little man and Away s
keeps his word"
In the first interview, Taft
said, in almost as many words,
that he will base his campaign
for reelection on negative plat
form of opportunistic criticism
of the Democratic administra-
ton, rather than on constructive
proposals of his own.
He told newspapermen that
the only role of minority lead
ers is lone of opposition and
criticism
Continuing, he gave voice to
politically cynical views in these
words:
'When they are out Of con-
troll, individual senators can &C
out on the floor and fight a pro
gram, do what they want to
win or lose, and then 60 back
and wait till something else
comes along that interests
them"
On the subject of keeping
political promises, Taft was just
as explicit.
In an interview with Robert
Crater of the Columbus Citizen
the Ohio senator sneered as he
discussed Trumans' record o 1
keeping his political promises
and thus keeping faith with the
people.
To emphasize his point, Taft
added, Truman, once he has
pledged h i m elf, must &c
through with his promises"
Taft's blunt cynicism startled
even those who normally ride
his bandwagon.
In Cop political circles, raised
eyebrows greeted publication Of
these two interviews, for two
old fashioned virtues, keeping
ones word and cooperation Of
all political forces to achieve
good government, had suddenly
become vices in Taft's eyes.
1 Editorial apologists, usu a lly

ments and actions, let these two
interviews 60 by without com
ment. As one liberal newspaper
man remarked to his city room
colleagues, Even the w h it e.
tower boys couldn't explain
