Almost every week you find rip-snortng editorial

Yet this week The Post is sending out letters to its sub

protest the proposed increase in magazine and
paper postal rates.
All publications get a Government postal subsidy.
There's talk in Congress of increasing it to help the Federal
deficit
Now you would think the Post would heartily support
such It's getting the Government of business

But the Post in there fighting for its subsidy Which
raises this question: Why subsidy good when it helps
line the pockets of the Post but terrible when aids the

Understanding "A Dispute

Now and then you have Union picket walking his
beat in front of nonUnon struck place of business
Perhaps you have said Why is there strike that place,
it only employs or two people?
WE'LL look at this way and you will the reason:
If firm which employs only few people refuses to pay
Union wages live up to Union standards of decency in
working conditions and if the Union affected fails to take
any action what happens Naturally the public does not
know and continues to paonze the struck establishment
with the result that the Union people affected directly
out of luck The nonUnon operator takes czarke atti
tude toward his employees he what he pease he sets
his standards, and to hell with the workers.
If this little outfit, employing only few people,
get away with it, other firms do the thing
Hence, there and more non-Union firms The
Union cannot sign special inside agreements with chiseng
employers the Union must enforce scale and
standard Of conditions for all employers and firms given
industry for that is the only fair way to deal Hence if
firm employing only few cuts wages and gets away with
it, general cut is in the ong for all who work in that in
dustry.

Appropriation Bill
Reported 10 Senate

The Senate Appropriations Com
mittee today reported favorably
the resolution passed by the House
yesterday to keep all Government
functions, including the District
government. going during July.
Without this resolution, all
agencies would be out of funds
Saturday morning, July /, since
all appropriations for the new
fiscal year are tied up in the
incompleted omnibus budget bill.
Chairman McKellar probably
will ask the Senate to pass the
continuing resolution this after
noon. The Senate committee
made minor changes which will
have to go back to the House.
Meanwhile, it was learned. the
Senate committee hopes to bring
out its rewritten version of the
omnibus money bill by the end OF
next week. 1t would be taken UP
in the Senate July 10 and leaders
hope complete agreement between
the two Houses can be reached by
the end of July. For most Gov
ernment agencies the continuing
resolution authorizes operating ex-
penses during July at the rate pro-
vided in the new bill as passed by
the House. The economy cuts ,ir
personnel voted by the House ir

District Rent Control
Extension Expected
By Friday Dead|ine
BY Don S. Warren

Extension of District rent con-
trolls for seven months, recon-
mended unanimously by House
Senate conferees, may be approved
today by the Senate.
Final legislative action, with
House ratification. now is expected
to be taken in advance of the Fri
day night deadline. when the pres
ent law expires.
Assuming that the measure
clears all hurdles, however, emer-
gency steps will have to be taken
to finance the office of Rent Ad-
ministrator Robert F. Cogswell
after Friday. There is nothing for
this in the pending 1851 District
budget. since the continuation of
controls has not yet been ordered.
If ordered. as expected. requests
for an urgent supplemental item
of about $4,000 to cover the opera
tions of the staff for the next
seven months is expected to be
rushed to Capitol Hill. The staff
of about 80 might have to go pay
less for a few days before this is
Strengthened out, officials said.
Cain to Protest.
1t may not be all smooth sled
ding on the compromise plan,
since Senator Cain. Republican, of
Washington, said last night he will
make a strong protest against
seven months of mandatory con-
trolls here, as against six months
written into the national law.
But he indicated he probably
will not make any long speech
against the conference report.
What will happen to controls
here after next January 81, If the
conference plan is adopted, will re-
main a question mark until the
, new Congress meets next year.
The compromise plan would leave
a possible extension up to the new
Congress.
The conferees also took other
kinks out of the issues by aban-
doning a House amendment which
would have permitted apartments
including the Westchester, where
Senator Cain and other members
of Congress live, to be decontrolled
If they were converted into CO.
operative ownerships.
Other Provis0s in Bill.
Left in the bill was a proviso fol
decontrol Saturday of all single
| furnished. non-h ou S e k ping
rooms, including those in hotels.
Also approved by the conferees
was a provision for the decontroI
of an entire building, if and when
its rooms were decontrolled.
Both branches of Congress ap-
proved a section providing that
| if the rent administrator finds
most rooms of a hotel are used by
tranSients, the residential quar-.
ters also shall be decontrolled.

tension.
In the face Of this, the Senate
District Committee yesterday
moved to seek Senate approval for

Truman Hits TotuIitorionism
AS He Lays Cornerstone Here

Radiating confidence and high
spirits on an internationally criti-
cal day, President Truman late
yesterday laid the cornerstone of
the new Federal Courthouse for
the District.
The President displayed the
aplomb of a master stonemason,
as he slapped the mortar on with
a silver troWel and guided the
massive slab into place with out
spread arms.
Then, to the delight of $500
spectators. the President surveyed
his job with q craftsmanlike eye,
and gave it a final touch by scrap
ing off the excess mortar and
chucking it back to the hod.
.Assails Totalitarian System.
In his own address for the men,
orable occasion, Mr.. Truman
strongly assailed the totalitarian
offensive against the American
Iuedl OI JuSClCe.
They have subjected their own
people to all the evils of tyranny
to kidnapping, torture, slavery,
murder-Without hope of redress
or remedy" he said. They have
made a mockery of the forms OF
justice. Their judges are prosecu-
tors, their prosecutors are hang
man. their defense lawyers are
puppets. Their trials are coldly
calculated displays of propaganda,
based on torture and designed to
spread falsehood."
Draws Parallel.
Turning to Americas own ju-
diclal system. Mr.. Truman drew a
parallel.
I'm it's beginnings, this world
movement toward the protection
of human rights may not appear
particularly impressive" he said.
But the courts of the District
Of Columbia were not very i'm
pressive either. when they were
set up $50 years ago. :. These
courts have grown strong, because
they are based on a living truth
In his only deviation from the
prepared text, Mr.. Truman
strongly asserted that he regarded
the appointment of Federal judges
"one of my most important
duties"
