The Truman administration is al
ready attaching great Importance to
the outcome of the Iowa elections.
Secretary Brannan is expected to
campaign personally in the state and
there is a strong possibility that
President Truman himself will take
to the stump in behalf of Loveland.
There is no secret of the fact that
President Truman and Secretary
Brannan have a special interest in
Loveland's success.
Now without strong farm-state
supporter of the Brannan plan in
the senate, the Truman administra-
ton would count upon Loveland to
lead the fight in that body if he can
win Hickenlooper's seat.

GRANGE FOR LEASING

Seeking a solution TO the
question of permanent farm leg
islation. the National Grange has
proposed return 10 early New
Deal practices of government
leasing farm lands as a means
of cutting production of sur
plus crops.
In tentative draft of a proposed
new farm program, the Grange
would use the land leasing device
to get cropland diverted to pasture.
Funds now appropriated for the
governments $285, 100000 a year soil
conservation payment program
would be used to finance leasing
operations. The conservation pro-
gram would be dropped.
Copies of the Grange proposal
have been submitted to many mem
bers of congress, but it probably
will be pigeon-holed along with
many other farm proposals now be-
fore the lawmakers.

WASHINGTON, D. c. = Despite

WASHINGTON, D. c. - Despite
the GOODNESS of congress to his pro-
duction payment plan, Secretary of
Agriculture Charles F. Brannan is
firmly convinced that his program
has gained supporters among farm
ers and consumers.
Brannan is convinced that
the past months have been a
period of Sterile debate" inso-
far as a solution of the farm
problem is concerned.
He thinks that much of the time
has been spent in trying to tell why
the Brannan plan would not work,
instead of trying to put over some
thing that would.
Legislative action is needed, he
believes, to keep agriculture pros
porous so it can keep city workers
employed.
Brannan laid his plan before con-
gress a year ago last April. In brief
it would support prices of most farm
products at higher levels than au-
thorized by present law. 1t also
would allow broader use of govern
ment subsidies to support farm in
come from perishables, while allow
ing lower market prices for these
commodities.
Apparently with the thought in
mind that the present congress is
strongly Democratic-in name at
least-Brannan contends that he is
making no complaints.
''I recognize that it is a part of
the system of government we have, .
he said
But Brannan does not relish the
language that some of his critic:
have used-particularly charges tina
it is stupid" and the Brannan plar
sis a fraud"
Brannan says he believes that hi
program would cure agriculture o
the "black eye it is now suffering
from"
The 'black eye,'' in his opinion
is consumer reaction to food price
while government price support
hold up farm prices.
What the secretary has apparent
overlooked is the fact that there
a wide variance between prices pal
by consumers and prices paid
farmers
Narrowing of this margin is no
a question being looked into by tt
house agriculture committee whiC
is studying improved marketir
methods.

BRANNAN TEST SET

a clear cut test of the Bran

Iowa senatorial election next
November.
Carrying the banner for the Bran

His opponent is Bourke B. Hicken-

Civil case7
Criminal or civil?

Criminal or civil?
The Bolman suit to "see the
AWBC books" Is not a mere
civil inquiry into some book
keeping. It's a thinly yelled
charge that Gosser and other
UAW-CIO lie ad ers in Toledo
made themselves a $21 900 profit
on the sale of Will-O-Land to
AWBC.
That isn't true.
But it's criminal charge; and
the Constitution has always pro-
vided that no one need testify
In a criminal" action, nor SUBJ
NIT to cross-examination volun-
tarily.
Yesterday. Lowell Goerlich,
UAW-CIO attorney, made II
clear that when a supposedly in
nocent civil" action has obvious
criminal" gimmicks in it, the
same Constitutional provisions
hold.
Bolman's attorneys didn't like
that. They wanted to force Cos
ser to submit to questions which
THEY could ask and the BLADE
could print.
No soap.

The Blade made a point OF
stating that their photographer
was blocked from the deposition
hearing in the office of Ellis and
Smith yesterday.
No one, by suggestion of Ellis,
was to be in the room unless he
"had a chair" 1t was the lack
of room and the shortage of
chairs" that Ellis dwelt upon.
But after this condition had
been obtained, room was made
for Clarence Condor, who is a
Blade defense attorney in the
Cousino libel suit. Condor sat
on the floor, although he didn't
have a chair.
If Condor had not been in
vited in by Ellis, there would
have been room for the Blade

working on the day of election,
while they were actually out of
the plant transporting en-
ployees who were off duty, laid
off, or on sick leave, to the
plant for the purpose of voting.
The Board squirmed away
from two of the UAW-CIO
charges that supervisors and
foremen influenced and coerced
voters during the campaign, and
led the employees to their re-
spective departments into the
polling area to vote on the day
of election-in the face of the
record that the Board itself
challenged foremen for voting.
Approximately 80 supervisors
were challenged by the UAW-
CIO observers. On the UAW-
CIO charge that the Lampwork-
ers Association is company
dominated, financed, controlled
and directed, the Regional
Board suggested that the matter
raised was one for complaint
hearing procedure, in order to
properly probe the charge.
Thus the tremendous effect of
the Taft Hartley Act-and the
new rights" it gives to en-
ployers-is brought into sharp
focus in this case, when it is
evident that although 70 de-
positions were set forth, in a
broad case comprising five sepa-

major points survived the new
Taft Hartley Act.

Old Trick

One of the Oldest newspaper
tricks on the books is the trick
of asking questions.
All that Is necessary is to get
someone TO ask the question in
some official capacity, and then
the newspaper goes ahead and
prints the question--usually add
ing the comment that the man
they are after refused TO an
swer" or 'evaded the question. I"
When this stunt Is pulled,
there are always a few who will
believe, forever afterward, that
no one would have asked the
question In the first place, II
there hadn't been something
behind IT,"
And yet the paper can always
say, I'VE didn't say the guy DID
II. We just printed the fact that
somebody ASKED him"
This is the device the Blade
could have used, II Attorneys
Els and Smith had been permit
ted 10 get Gosser on the stand

possibility before II started. He
kept Richard Gosser, UAW Vice

question until the AWBC charges
can be made in open court,

When these new recruits went
in, the picket lines suddenly ex-
panded as workers in nearby
Universal Cooler, a st r G
UAW-CIO unit, piled out to
help their neighbors get a con-
tract.
Then came the police, with
tear gas and force, to cut the
picket lines down.
Out of the plant came auto
mobiles, filled with covering
scabs. Two UAW-CIO strikers
were hurt, one a man, and an
other a woman.
The terror tactics had not
been confined to the plant area.
The local union attorney
Thomas Fetter had been beaten
up on his own front porch with
brass knuckles the local
president, John Burke, had
been given the brass knuckle
treatment.
And the entire scene was one
,of force and feudalism, when
three local clergmen entered
the situation.
The Rev. Edwin A. Brown,
the Very Rev. William j. Spick-
erman, and the Rev. j. B. Holl-
oway offered themselves as
mediators-not in the contract
negotiations, but in the violence
created by a management and
police backed by the Taft Hart
ley law.
A truce was formed, over the
weekend, during which three
pickets on each gate paced out
side a plant which had promised
not to operate.
Bargaining began.
Since then AN injunction (an-
other Taft-Hartley specially was
obtained by m a n a 6 e m n I
against the picket line.
But the hope at last existed
that plant which had long re-
sisted the mandate of its en-
ployes, when they voted for
UAW-CIO eight months ago,
might at last be getting ready to
sit down to reasonable discus
sion of modern wages and
working conditions.

The Blade officials made a
great to-do about headlines
and the time element, but no
one doubts (nor was it denied)
that Gosser's answer to the
Blades assault could have
been printed in time.
The Gosser episode can be
considered the climax to a
long, slow w stalking process
which began when John A.
Bolman first demanded to
see the AWBC books. Before
the matter could be discussed,
he had called Walter Murphy,
Gosser's assistant, a libelous
name.

-Goerlich insisted that the
record not include these off
record comments.
AS evidence that they would
not be, the notary himself
tore off the half inch section
of his book containing the
brief notes, and Ellis agreed
to the deletion.
The Blade even pretended
the UAW members who at
tended and crowded the mar
row corridor in front Of the
Smith-Ells office "did permit
the entry of a photographer
from the Toledo Union Jour
nal," while barring a Blade
photographer.
The fact is that the Journal
photographer was on n a n q
when the meeting began; the
Blade man came later, after

Incidentally, tn e B | a d e
neglected to mention that the
crowd" of UAW members,
which they estimated at 80,
was in the office on invitation
of Ellis. Goerlich said they
were in the lobby of the office
building, and Ellis said they
were welcome to come up
stairs, even t h o u 6 h t h e
were not enough chairs for
them.
/ The whole tone of the Blade
story, the conduct of the hear
ing, the presence of Condor,
defense attorney for the Blade
in the libel suit, and other
factors all made plain what
has long been understood by
UAW members in Toledo:

An unmistakable ST d e.
light could be seen in the re-
fusal of the Blades advertis-
ing department to carry full
page advertisement in today's
paper, when submitted by the
UAW-CIO staff.
The paper insisted the copy
was submitted too late. The
fact is that a full page was
already set aside for the
