Strike Rights Promised
The Democrat Party leader.
Jelal Bayar. has declared that if
his party wins, labor's right to
strike will be recognized. Such
right is now forbidden by law.
The Peoples Party vigorously
defends itself on all counts. It
makes the countercharge that the
Democrat Party is a party of busi-
nessmen, who would open up the
country for their own personal
profit. They point out that spe-
cial labor laws eliminate labor's
need to strike; that if the right to
strike were granted, the right of
lockout by management would be,
too, Furthermore, strikes are
politically dangerous in a country
which fronts on the Soviet Union,

The Nations Party reflects q
more radical opposition to the
government. AS such, it has fol-
lowers OF both extreme right and

After the war, however, Govern

The insurance companies began
gradually tightening their treas

more of their assets into corporate
issues and mortgages.
Treasury Holdings Down
AS Of last January 81, the in
dustry had $4,000, 100000 in
vested in corporate issues, an in
crease of s2,461 900, 900 over IL
months; its = mortgage holdings
totaled $13,065 100000, a boost of
$2,058, 100000. Conversely, in the
same IL months its holdings of
United States Treasury securities
dropped $1,416,00O,0O to $15,215,-
100000.
This is a broad picture of the
trend among the standard invest
ments Of the life companies over
the past year. A very recent
development, however, has been
a partial return to favor of
Treasury securities. During last
December and January the life
companies acquired $238 million
of United States securities, COM
pared with purchases OF only
$50 million in the like two-month
period a year earlier.
Freight Car Plan
A recent, unique twist in the
search for new investment out
lets is a sort of real estate in
vestment on wheels.
Thomas I. Parkinson, president
OF Equitable, announced a new
plan of his company to buy new
freight cars from manufacturers
and lease them to the railroads.
Equitable's freight car plan
would help the Nation, Mr.. Park
inson said. because the railroads
could obtain as much new equip
ment as they need without a down
payment.
Wall Street was mildly alarmed.
Investment bankers looked at the
plan as one that might cut off an
other source of revenue-dealing
in railroad equipment trust GER
tificates. The carriers generally
finance equipment urchases S
through the sale of trust certifi-
Gates, which requires them to make
a 20 per cent down payment.
Commercial bankers were not hap
py, either, since the plan might
eliminate trust certificates, a pop
ular item in their investment
portfolios.
The freight car idea actually is
an extension of the lease back" :"
a device becoming increasingly
popular as an investment medium.
Under the "lease-back" an indus
trial or mercantile firm sells it's
plant to an insurance company
and then rents it back under a

CURED In a number Of faults
found. Explaining In one answer
that procedural condition was
discovered by the CAB while your
investigators were there" Mr..
O'Connell was asked by Chairman
Rooney: Apparently. if we had
not sent the investigators down
there, you would not have found
out about a lot of things?"
Promptly Mr.. O'Connell re-
piled: THAT is still, to an extent,
true; there is no doubt about it,"
CAB Methods Scored
Agreement by Chairman O'Con-
nell that number of things
could be better in CAB internal
administrative procedure, forti-
fed the full House Appropriations
Committee in reporting out the
heavily cut CAB estimates that
practically every allegation con-
tanned in the report of the COM
mittee investigators was sustained
during the course of the CAB
testimony" And it doubtless
contributed to the concluding
sentence in the report that: The
committee is unanimous in its
conviction that if The Civil Aero
nautics Board will establish mod
ern and efficient methods, the
funds appropriated will be more
than ample to cover its needs"
Concern of aviation people out
side the CAB over the q per cent
House committee cut, has snow
balled speculation as to what was
the real motive. Most persistent
report and comment is that the
cut is a vindictive personal action
by Mr.. Rooney against Chairman
O'Connell and in reprisal for the
latter's having been quoted at a
New York City banquet last fall
as having said, in response to q
question from a dinner compan-
ion, that the New York City dele
cation in Congress would be more
effective if 1t spent more time in
Washington as it apparently be-
longed to the II. r. & T. Club-in
on Tuesday; out on Thursday"
This, said Mr.. Rooney before he
went home for the Easter holidays,
"is nonsense!" He did confirm
the fact that he had heard such
an observation was attributed to
MIR. O'Connell, but. he said, he
never bothered to check back
with the CAB chairman as to
whether he actually said it. He
added that he would have done
so had he taken the violent
offense" with which he is being
accused.
There Is absolutely nothing per-
sonal in the conflict of opinions he
and Mr.. O'Cor1ell have with re-
spect to the needs of the CAB,

Three days ago Mr.. O'Connell
observed" the second anniversary
of his induction into Office as a
member of CAB and simultane-
ously, his appointment by the
President to the Craftsmanship of
the board. His term expires on
December 81, 1858. That was a
happy day two years ago for at
least one person-President Tru-
man-for he had had a difficult
time finding successor to James
M. Lands, former dean of Harvard
Law School and former chairman
whose term expired in December
1947.
Picked by Truman
Mr.. O'Connell. for several years
general counsel of the Treasury
was just becoming comfortably
established in q lucrative law
practice here, after he left the
Treasury in 1947, when at the
suggestion Of Treasury Secretary
Snyder. President Truman impor-
tuned him to take the CAB chair
manship. He had never been
connected in any way with aero
nautics and freely admitted to nc
knowledge Of the subject; also no
favorites or prejudices among the
people he was to regulate. This
was highly acceptable to the air
line industry, which has found
Mr.. O'Connell eager and willing
to learn and also has found him
firm but fair in his dealings with
the operators.
Immediately after the new low
recommended appropriations for
1851 fiscal year became known,
and for several days thereafter,
the shock produced some rather
extravagant speculation as to
what action" the CAB would
take: what the airlines would do
about it; what would happen to
the CABS $40 employees (of whom
564 are in Washington) and to
airline safety. As for the latter,
the House committee anticipated
any cry on this delicate subject
and sought to prevent it by spe-
ciflcally prohibiting CAB from
reducing any of it's budget applied
to safety regulation or accident
investigation.
A Senate Appropriations Sub
committee is scheduled to take up
CABS appropriation measure late
this month. Chairman O'Connell
has remained silent since the
House committee reported out his
bill and he will not speculate or
permit his staff to speculate on
what, If anything, CAB will do or
can do. But there is a tiny ray
Of hope that those fighting Irish
men will soon be brought togeth-
er by an adroit conciliator.

Life insurance has 80 million
policyholders. It is a rare Ameri-
can who has no interest In life
insurance either through his own
policy, that of a member Of his
family, through a company-held
mortgage or In some similar man
ner.
The problem seems to be
whether the life companies can
find means of investing all this
wealth without overlapping fields
that other types of business
such as investment banking-tra-
ditionally have claimed as their
own.
No overt. conflicts have de-
veloped in the financial world.
However, investment bankers have
sighed unhappily at times when
an insurance company or group
has bought, lock, stock and bar
rel. big securities issue directly
from the issuer.
Some congressional groups have
looked into the insurance business
in search of answers to two big
questions: If there is a shortage
of equity capital, have the life
companies contributed through
their booming sales and premium
collections? And, have the COM
panies. through their tremendous
assets, asserted too much influ-
ence over certain segments of the
economy?
The life company's reply is, in
effect. that the people want secu-
rity and seek it partly through in
surance. AS custodians of other
peoples money, they say, if they
fail to invest their funds wher-
ever opportunity provides the best
return. they are falling down on
the job.
Investment Patterns
Organized labor's demands for
workers security benefits are ex-
pected to add many more millions
in pension funds to the COM
panies' custodianship. Labor also
is demanding life insurance.
As an example of the magni-
tude Of some of these transac-
tions. Equitable Life Assurance
Society of the United States re-
Gently was designated insurer un-

ity insurance program, putting an

program.
Patterns of life insurance in

years. At the height of the busi-
ness boom of the '20s the industry
had AZ per cent of its assets in
mortgages 28.5 per cent in corpo-
rate securities and. only 2.6 per
cent in United States Govern
