Labor Day Statement By Go
President Philip Murray

Following Is the Labor Day statement of Go Presiden
Philip Murray:
our nation and our free world on this Mid-CentuTy Labor Day.
The American people, who had hoped to live at peace with
themselves and with the world, are confronted by a new threat O.
world war. The threat comes from the masters of Communists
detectives in Korea. Tomorrow, they may sweep some other area
into the cauldron of warfare and destruction.
The workers of America want a peaceful world, in which
men and women may work to improve their living standards
their democratic institutions their personal good and welfare.
These are precious goals, and we will strive for their achievement.
And we are not afraid to fight in defense of freedom.
aggression provoked by the Communists in Korea. AS individuals
and as union members, we will do everything in our power to
speed the victory of the democratic forces.
Let no man think he can take advantage Of our national
crisis to weaken our unions or to rob our people of hard-won
gains.
AS always, we shall fight profiteering and exploitation. We
shall strive for legislation to protect Americas workers and
farmers and small businessmen, and to curb the evils of monopoly
in industry. We shall continue our fight against shameless dis
elimination based on race, creed, national origin or color. We
shall give our full support to those projects = like the European
Recovery Program and the Point Four Program - which win us
friends in other countries and help the entire world enjoy the
benefits of technical and scientific advances.
Through our CIO Political Action Committee. we are deter
mined that the 1850 elections shall witness no retreat from the
program and the spirit of the Fair Deal. In periods of crisis,
even more than during so-called normally, America needs lib
eral governmental policies and forward-looking public officials.
This year, when the world is looking to the United States for
leadership, we cannot afford to default to reaction.
BY registering and voting for labors candidates, each one OF
us can help the cause of democracy.
We must carry on our efforts to win repeal of the vicious
Taft Hartley Act; to build better homes for more of our people;
to Danish evil discrimination based on race, creed, nationality or
color; to improve our minimum wage and social security; and to
win adoption of a national health insurance program.
During the year ahead, the Go will strive to win adoption
of its program program that will strengthen the Liberties and
opportunities of free men and women at home and abroad.
Loyal to our democratic ideals, in full support of our ma
tons campaign to smash Communist aggression, the CLIO looks
to the future with confidence and determination.

Mobilization Bill Stalled
Controls May Be Postponed
WASHINGTON IL P Al

WASHINGTON lPA) -
There will be no rigid tie-in of
wage and price controls in any
home front mobilization bill
passed by Congress. Before this
happens, the whole section in
volving these controls will be
removed from the bill, for ac-
ton at a later date.
This became clear August IS,
as Senate and House conferees
broke off their meetings on the
dill until Tuesday, August 20.
They differed sharply over the
rigid wage-price section of the
Senate bill, which would not
give the President power to i'm
pose controls selectively on par
ticular commodities on which
the prices might threaten to get
out of hand.
The Senate conferees, recess
ing to a seperate room, dead
locked four to four on the ques-
ton of accepting the House YER
sion, which does give the Presi-
dent power to impose selective
controls. Missing member, whose
proxy didn't show up, was Sen.
John Tobey Or, MID. In the Sen
ate, he voted for the Wherry-
Bricker amendment which elm
mates all selective controls.

Dorothy
Dix

DEAR MISS DIX: What do you
think of the chances of happiness
of woman who has been finan-
cially independent for a long time
and accustomed to spending
money freely, though not extrava-
gantly, in marrying a man who is
very stingy, and who is so alb
sorbed in making money and saw
ing it that he barely takes the
woman out at all? The young man
is fine, good-looking chap with
good manners and morals, but
how will the girl like it when she
has to look to a parSimonious hus-
band for every dollar she needs?
Is there any way to change such
a man If one is clever enough?
A BUSINESSWOMAN.
Answer: Miserliness is one of
the most incurable of all the faults
and it is one that grows upon
person, so it is folly to delude
yourself into thinking that you
can change a stingy sweetheart
into a liberal husband. It can't
be done.
A stingy husband is bad enough
and hard for woman to endure
who has never known anything
but financial dependence, but he
is impossible for the woman who
has had her own pocketbook and
spent her own money as she
pleased. Especially if she happens
to be open-handed herself.
A tight hand goes with a tight
heart and tight sympathies, and
these have no place in marriage.
The very first requisite of a good
husband is generosity. A wife
wants to feel that her husband
gives to her freely and that his
only regret is that he hasn't more
to give, that he would like to hand
her the world on a silver salver if
he could.
Better pass up your tightwad.
He is poor bet.
