Lowell MeHett:
Labor Relations Have Chonqed
Striking Evidence Given by Steel Workers Demands
And Forthcoming Proposal of Auto Workers Union

The most interesting item in
dispute between Big Steel and
the steel workers big union is
the one concerning a guaranteed
annual wage. 1t may not be
the most important in it's bear
ing on the success or failure of
efforts to avoid a disastrous
strike in this basic defense in
dustry. That doubtless is the
increased hourly wage demanded
by the union, which U. S. Steel
says would require an increase
in the price of steel, but which
union officials say can be
granted out of current profits.
Whether or not the workers
are prepared to strike for an
annual wage, nobody knows.
The negotiating committee isn't
telling; in fact, it isn't telling
the public much about the pro-
poSal itself. One report, how
ever, is that the union wants
assurance that all workers with
three or more years employment
will be paid for at least 80 hours
Of work every week in the year.
This may be based on the pres
ent understanding between the
union and most of the steel
producers that work is to be
shared between all employees as
long as a mill has orders enough
to keep shifts operating on a
32-hour basis.
Whatever the precise proposal
Evening star., 1951-12-22

pared to describe conditions in
their communities. The worst
situation. of course, is in De-
troit. but thousands Of workers
have been laid off in other cities.
The union will urge that the
present output of civilian goods
be continued until defense work
is available to take UP the slack
in employment. 1t will urge also
that more civilian plants be used
for defense work, making pos
sible the unemployment of many
now laid off.
And it will ask Congress, just
now reconvening, to vote addi-
tional unemployment benefits
sufficient to provide 40 hours
pay per week to workers laid
off "as result of defense mo-
bilization policies"
A new theory of Government
responsibility underlies this last
proposal. 1t is that Government
policy-defenSe mobilization
has caused the present unem-
ployment and that the Govern
ment has an obligation to pro-
tect citizens from the conse-
quences of its action.
Congress may not subscribe
to this theory. On the other
hand it may. The centers of
temporary unemployment extend
all the way from New England
to the Pacific Coast and next
year is an election wear.

and always has been strongly
anti-Semitic. What is happen
ing in the U. S. S. r. and the
other countries under its con-
troll Is nothing but a more fe-
rocious repetition of the po-
groms which occurred under
the CZars every time things went
badly for the Russian rulers and
they needed scapegoats to ap-
pease the discomfort of the
population.
Americans and Western Eu-
ropeans of Jewish stock once
looked upon the Soviet govern
ment as one which genuinely
permitted no racial discrimina-
ton. Many pointed out that
the question of race or religion,
provided the latter was not
openly practiced, was of no i'm
portance in the land of Stain.
The fact is that the battle
waged by Stain after Lenin's
death against Leon Trotsky was
fundamentally an Semitic
action to purge Russia of "Jew-
ish rule" and was ignored by de-
sign or because of wishful
thinking on the part of many
Western Jews.
They refused to recognize
that the bulk of those purged in
the mass executions of 1886
were the Jews who had been
Lenin's associates and had been
holding top positions in the
Soviet hierarchy.
It is true that during the
war Stain did not press, openly
at least, the persecution of the
Jews. He sent Maxim Litvinov
as ambassador to the United
States on the eve of Pearl Har-
bor and continued to keep him
in the United States throughout
the important phases of the war.

Ferocious Pogrom on in Russia
thousands OF OPPoruns Who Jumped onhe Red Band Wogor
Are being Executed Sent to the Land of No Return
Constantine Brown:

While the free world is pre-
pairing to celebrate the birth Of
Christ under the heaviest clouds
of uncertainty known in history,
behind the Iron Curtain the
followers of Stain presumably
have been celebrating his birth
day in the Politburo's own joy
full manner. For more than
two months drastic purges have
taken place in the whole area
dominated by the Kremlin from
Prague to Shanghai.
This time the "diversionists"
who are being bounded by the
state secret police are principally
Jews. The betrayal" of Rudolf
Slansky, once the top Politburo
man in CzechoSlovakia, was the
first inkling the free world had
of what was happening. Tens
Of thousands of Czechs have
been arrested and either been
executed or, even worse, sent
to labor camps beyond the Ural
Mountains.
In Romania, Anna Pauker,
nicknamed by her countrymen
as the "she wolf" has either
already been purged or is on
the way to her demise. In that
country also, tens of thousands
of Communists or opportunists
who hoped on the Moscow
bandwagon are being arrested
and sent to the land of no re-
turn.
Both Moscow-trained leaders,
Slansky and Pauker are of Jew
lsh stock. The bulk of those
who are now being bounded by
the secret police are of the
Jewish race and are being &C
cused by the Politburo as "in-
strumentS of the international
Jewish plot to overthrow COM
munism."

as "a political springboard."
The hearing was opened to the

The subcommittee decided on
an open hearing after Mr.. Ma

client would not testify in a closed

committee discovered, that he
also would not testify in public,
nor would he produce records re-
quested by the investigators.

may be, the very fact of it's being
made is interesting as an indi-
cation of how greatly labor re-
lations have changed in the
course of one generation. Gone
are the days when employers
could dip into a pool of unem-
ployed workers, ready, able and
eager to work at wages of the
employers own fixing; if not
gone forever, gone for now.
The call for guaranteed an
nual wages could be the
labor leaders notion of how
to put the conditions of
other days permanently behind
them. They could believe that
once all workers achieve the sort
of security enjoyed by executives
they will never give it up. If
the idea sounds radical, they
say, so did the idea of severance
pay when it was first proposed.
An equally radical departure
from the thinking of other
years is contained in a prop
osition which the auto work.
ers' union is bringing to Wash
ington next month. It has called
a conference, to which mem
berS of CONGRESS and other Cow
ernment officials are invited, to
consider the problem of mass
unemployment" in the automo-
bile industry during the change
over from civilian to defense
production. Presidents of 800
