Stuart Leech, one Of Saint

article entitled "Beachcomber

IN a mainland magazine called

The article is not only well
written but it carries three,
pictures, one of which shows
four of St. Croix's youth in the
workshop of "Leech-Silver-
smiths another showing part
Of the Christiansted Harbor
and a larger picture showing
a scene at Estate Hope, taken
by the famous photographer,
Fritz Henle.
Mr.. Leech starts his article
thus: Every adventure has its

dream. Ours was perhaps a
combination Of all three. The

main springboard of foreign
policy. He declared that the
U.N. remains the hope and
heart OF Canadian policy and,
he added, we believe strongly
in accepting it as it stands, and
making the best of it.
Mr.. Holmes emphasized the
value Of finding practical
values in the U.N. forums in

purposes Of oratory. He then

Paris Cops Snarf
Traffic To Press
Demands For Raise

Paris (LPA)-If you were in the
capital of France May 10, you
should have stood in bed.
Not that the Apaches were out to
get you. 1t was just that the city
wide confusion was a clear and
present threat to life and limb.
Seems Paris cops wanted raise,
but were forbidden by law to strike
for their demands. So the gen
darmes put on "tie-up-traffic"
act that worked. The lads in blue
didn't walk off their jobs. In fact
they were careful to be present
throughout the tie-up period. But
they did everything they could to
keep traffic snarled.
They played with traffic light
switches so that intersections were
choked with honking buses, trucks
and autos, not to mention shouting
pedestrians. In addition, they in
voked traffic rules about brakes
and the like. At one corner, three
policemen deliberately gave con-
flicting signals. At others, the cops
just smiled as the snarls became
tighter and tighter. In the end,
police authorities agreed to receive
delegation and talk wages.

Lobor In Politics
Worries Chamber

Washington LPA) = The US
Chamber of Commerce is so wor-
ried about Labor in Politics" that
it has just issued a 39-page PAM
phlet $50 cents) sounding the
alarm.
Says the pamphlet, "The Ameri-
cam public may well ask itself
Shall the Labor bloc be allowed,
by default, to dominate American
politics 2 " The question posed in
the pamphlet is whether American
business can continue without mus
tering its friends to deal with poll
tical issues, from grass roots to
the national level"
Labor in politics, says the PAM
phlet, sis a constant threat to the
stability which has characterized
our party system. There is al
ways the danger that it may be-
come powerful third party move
ment, or that it may actually cap
ture and use for its own purposes
one of the major political parties" F"

|UAW Signs Area
| Pension Plan For
| 1000 In Detroit

Detroit (LPA) = The United
Auto Workers has signed an area
wide pension pact for the more
than 1000 workers in 10 tool and
die plants here. The agreement, for
Locals 155 and 157, set up com
mon pension trust fund enabling
workers to move between those
plants while enjoying full pension
protection.
President Walter Reuther called
the contract "an answer to those
who have falsely charged that it is
impossible or unreasonable for the
smaller plants to pool their re-
sources and work out an equitable
pension plan for the security of
their workers"
. The contract, which includes
medical-hospital and in nsuranc e
benefits, is the first area-wide plan
in the automotive industry. The
employers will pay in 8 cents for
each hour worked by each employe.
Pensions will be 500 month, in
cluding social security, at 65, but
there is no compulsory retirement
age.
Other tool and die companies are
eligible to join and participate in
the plan, which is jointly administ-
cred, with an impartial chairman.
Service credit is not interrupted
if a worker quits or is fired, if he
returns to work within a year.
Pension eligibility for laid-off
workers continues for three years,
Workers may retire at 60 with the
consent of the employer, with pro-
portional benefits. Workers may re-
tire after 25 years, at 55, for per-
manent disability at $50 month,
! If social security benefits are in
creased, the union and employers
will set up joint committee to
recommend improvements in the
pension plan.
The negotiations were handled
by Russell Leach; Blaine Marin,
president of Local 1877; T.. +. Mar
ion,a president of Local 155, and
Willard Sollenberger, of the inter
national union.

lappeal to other unions in which he
said that the girls were striking
Ifor shorter hours because they
''want the chance to get an English
education and free time to use the
night schools"
Last year, the ILG spent 1922
I814 on the education of its mem
bers. The dressmaker goes to
school by radio and with movies
she takes courses in art, handi-
crafts, history, and family pro-
blems. This year, the union opened
its own college for training future
officers; in previous years, it had
sent some of them to Harvard.
When you joined the ILG in 1908
you had to take an oath to defend
freedom of thought by tongue OF
pen. and to strive to elevate the
moral and material condition Of the
working class"
The frontiers of freedom have
widened in the last AT years. The
ILG, since 1947, has given $780,
COO to help unions the world over.
Some of that money has gone to
the French and Italian and Israeli
labor movements, to build orphan
ages in Italy and China, to fight
Communists in South America and
Asia.
The ILGWU held its first con-
vention in loft on the lower East
Side in June 3, 1900. Joseph Bar
ondess, its first president, express
ed the prayerful hope that "the
enterprise would bear good fruit. "
Five years later, things were so
bad that the New York Cutters
considered seeding from a union
with "less than six months to
exist"
This year, IA men who joined
that union 80 years ago were
guests at it's convention. As a mark
of what the years have done, they
wore special solid gold badges.

Finance Farmers
Cook Up Scheme
To Depress Wages

San Francisco UPA) - There's
nothing the hardbitten Finance
Farmers" Of CALIFORNIA; lush val
ley like better than lot Of unem-
ployed American farm workers, ac-
cording to President H. l.. Mitchell
of the National Farm Labor Union
AFL. Then they can force wages
down--or try, anyway.
What's more, the big farmers
aren't above using their enormous
political power to see to it that Am
orleans are jobless. In mid May, fol
instance, they persuaded the Cal
ifornia State Board of Agriculture
to recommend cancellation Of g
State Employment Department or.
der directing that labor unions be
notified of available jobs.
The Employment Department
acting under rules laid down by the
US Labor Departments Bureau OF
Employment Security, had figured
that by keeping in touch with the
unions it might be able to exhaust
the supply Of American workers
before bringing in Mexican nation
"als. But the big farmers, whose or
ganization is the notorious Assoc
lated Farmers, prefer to bring il
the Mexicans first to assure an
oversupply of labor.
Whether the Associated Farm
ers can get away with their scheme
is another matter, Mitchell says
The law gives the federal govern
ment, in this case the Bureau o.
Employment Security, the right t.
make rules guaranteeing that M
domestic workers are without job!
before certifying that foreign
workers are required. The Califor
MIA director of employment has in
|dicated he will comply with tn,
Bureau Of Employment Security
regulations.
