He said the 11,187 such claims

However, the 81, ,839 for the week
ending July l indicates that the

The drop of nearly 1000 such

Il want to point out just
few facts which l think the
the members of the House should
consider not only in connection
with this bill but as a future
policy for the preservation of
many industries in the United
States. represent a district with
many types of industry, but the
largest Of these perhaps is the
production of pottery and glass
ware. 1t gives us great concern,
as it does many other sections
of the United States, to know
that in 1949 more than twelve
million pieces of pottery came
into the United States. One year
later, in 1949, we imported one
hundred and fifty-three million
pieces of pottery-a gain of two
hundred and fifty percent-in
direct competition in our home
market with these industries
which many of us are concerned
about today.
in japan, where much of this
comes from, wages are z cents
an hour. In Czechoslovakia, from
which comes much glassware,
wages are % cents an hour. In
my own district wages for these
two industries average one dol
lar and forty-seven cents an
hour.
1T is not a question of COM
petition. It. is a question of how
much pottery and glassware ia
pan can produce, because at z
cents an hour they can send
every bit Of it into the United
States with the kind of protec-
ton we have today.
Before the war, Japan pro-
duced no binoculars She pro-
duced none in 1916, but in 1949,
just three years later, forty-four
percent of all binoculars sold in
the United States were made in
Japan. This industry is vital to
the national safety of America
in time of war, and if we are
going to be able to defend our
selves we must find some way
to protect those industries es-
sential to our national defense.
Eight hundred thousand bar
relS of oil come into the United
States from foreign lands every
day. Foreign watches are des-
troying another vital industry IN
the United States of America.
Russian furs are destroying the
commercial fur industry in this
country and canned sea foods
are rapidly destroying the fish
cries in the United States.
"As / see it, there are only
three possible things that we as
a Congress could do. Certainly,
in my opinion, we should do one
of them. In the first place, we
might raise the tariffs, but that
would be more diffucult, be-
cause they could lower wages in
other countries to overcome the
tariff increases.
Second, we could adopt the
peril-point amendment, which
would provide that the Tariff
Commission could raise tariffs
and exclude, to the extent nee
essary, products that were des-
troying. or threatening to destroy
any segment of American indus
try.

on the question as required by
Taft Hartley.
The examiner suggested that
the NLRB require Mr.. Lewis to
sign an order directed to all field
officials Of the UNIV stating the
union never again will seek to
cause any coal operator to dis
criminate "in regard to the hire
or tenure of employment or any
term or condition of employment
to encourage membership in any
labor organization"
Unless there is an appeal either
by the union or operators to the
NLRB within 20 days, Mr.. Leff's
findings become final.
Sterilization Given as Reason.
Coal contract negotiations lasted
from the spring of 1949 until
March S, 1850, when a strike
ending agreement was signed.
After the settlement. the operators
asked NLRB to dismiss the
charges, but the board went ahead
with them anyway. ~
On June 80, 1949, Mr.. Lewis
directed the miners to work only
three days week. The short work
week, except for periods of two
long strikes and three weeks when
the miners were earning Christ
mas money, remained In effect
for eight months.
Large stockpiles of coal had
accumulated. Mr.. Lewis said the
short week was intended to sta
bilize coal industry economy and
divide available work among all
the miners.
Same Rules Held to Apply.
AS for the Lewis order, Mr.. Left
said:
ut was only after the operators
f1atly rejected its proposition
cAAC 4CdcO4A, dllO1lS OIAlC4o, tlldC
they were opposed as a matter of
principle to restrictions on their
ability to produce through the
spreading of available work-that
the union took unilateral action.
'The law recognizes the right
Of an employer, when an impasse
has been reached, to alter working
conditions unilaterally according
to his proposals which have been
rejected. The same freedom would
seem applicable to union"
The coal operators, Mr.. Left
said. took the stand that they
must have full and free use of
their facilities, in other words the
exclusive right to determine when
their mines will operate and the
miners work"
But. he pointed out, they had
agreed in their old contract to
