benefits. The rest of the industry
capitulated , few weeks later.
Another steel strike this year
brought Murray into contention
with the steelmen again This time
he sought a union shop. He won
partial victory: a modified union
shop agreement, but negotiated a
sizable wage boost.
When it was all over, he and
Fairless exchanged small gifts and
expressed mutual pleasure over
the negotiations.
'The u. S. has lost a great citi-
zen as well as a great labor lead
err" Fairless said of Murray's
death. ''While differing with his
point of view at times, 1 always
had respect for Philip Murray as
Christian gentleman"
A devout Catholic and long a
bitter foe of communism, Murray
in 1949 had 10 left-wing unions
elected from the CI0 on the
grounds their officers hewed too
close to the Moscow party line.
His great skill as a negotiator
won him appointments to various
government councils under three
presidents-Woodrow Wilson, War
rem G. Harding and Franklin
Roosevelt.
Yet with all his power and pres
tige, he remained at heart a trade

lost the ardor of trade unionsim

A mine worker at the age of
10, he spent the night before his
death at a meeting of his United
Steelworkers, whose presidency he
held concurrently with the presi-
dency of the parent CI0.
There, he spoke with energy of
labor's gains, promised whole
some support to any administra-
ton that has in mind constructive
measures fol the common people, !"
and defied especial groups" to take

While his advocacy of Roose-

son for the presidency, Murray de-
clined comment last week when
Stevenson and the supporting CLOS
Political Action Committee went
down to defeat at the polls.
Il will indulge myself the lux
ury of comment on the bedlam
of the last three (election) months
at the National Convention in Los
Angeles" he told steel workers
Saturday night.
That convention was to open a
week from today, but as the CLOS
top leadership turned toward Pitts
burgh and Murray's funeral there
Thursday, there were indications
it would be postponed.
The CLOS political stand and a
successor to Murray will be the
two big questions of the conven-
ton.
| Some unionists want the organi-
zation to get out of political ac-
tivity and say the political Action
Committees campaigning did the
union movement more harm than
good. Others want the political
arm strengthened.
AS for Murray's successor, much
of the speculation is centered on
two men-Allan S. Haywood, vet
eran CI0 executive vice president,
and Walter Reuther, United Auto
Workers president.
Haywood, long a stalwart in the
CLOS organizational campaigns, is
a veteran administrator. But his
age, 81, could work against him.
Reuther, As, is popular and ener-
getic. But he may not want the
responsibility of both jobs.
The son of a miners union Of
fetal, Murray was born at Blan-
tyre, Scotland, in 1886. He was
introduced to unionism at the age
Of 6, when his father took him
to a local meeting.
At 10 he went to work in the
coal mines. He was only 16-and

States, settling in the bituminous

vania. He became a naturalized
citizen in 1911.
His rise was the familiar story
but the rare fact-of the immigrant
lad who made good.
He saved his money for a cor
respondence course; worked all
day and studied most of the night
in his self-education; punched his
way into labor prominence when
ne pummeled a company weigh
master for dishonest weight.
The punch got him fired--but his
fellow workers walked out with
him and made him a local officer

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 29.-Sen-
ator Nixon today angrily branded
as "a lie" a statement by the
Democratic National Committee
that he and his relatives own real
estate valued at $250,000.
"The extent of the desperation
of the Stevenson candidacy is

a statement following the Demo-
