Polish DIP Family Heads West
After Welcome From 7 TrunQn

A little Polish family which
once knew the abasement of a
Nazi slave labor camp today
looked forward to home in the
United States, heartened by a
warm welcome from President
Truman.
Last of $4,000 displaced per-
sons to enter this country under

year-old factory worker: his
pretty wife Ursula and their two
daughters Ursula. 6, and Beatte,

House by the President late yes

to Chicago, where their new life
is beginning.
The President, who has run
into difficulties in trying to get
legislation to bring 100000 more
DPS into the country, told how
Evening star., 1952-04-15

Whether Chairman Robert
Ramspeck of the commission will
change his views remains to be
seen. Also, the subcommittee
would like to hear, at first hand,
the ideas of his two colleagues,
Frances Perkins and James
Mitchell.
The subcommittee believes Miss
Perkins and Mr.. Mitchell may not
be quite so antagoniStic toward
an annuity boost. That's why all
three commissioners were asked
to testify in person.
The Smahters measure would
provide $36 increase for retired
Federal workers for each six
months they have been retired.
The maximum increase allowed
would be 1924 or Is per cent,
whichever is less.
| Also, the raise would be on a
one-year basis and would be con-
tinued beyond that only if Con-
gress voted the necessary funds.
This provision was included in
an effort to get the support of
Mr.. Ramspeck. The commission
chief has strongly opposed dip
ping into the present funds of the
civil service retirement system to
pay the increase. At the same
time, however, Mr.. Ramspeck has
opposed an increase, even if Con-
gresS voted the funds.
The new bill eliminates pro-
posed increases of survivorship
insurance benefits for present
Federal employees and their fam
lilies, and it also would not in
crease annuities for present work.
erS when they retire. These two
features were dropped in an eff
fort to keep down the cost of the
bill.
Chairman Johnston of the full
committee and several other Sen
ators feel the new bill isn't liberal
enough and that the features of
the original measure should be put
back in.
This may cause considerable
discussion in the full committee,
after the subcommittee reports
the bill. Senator Smathers is ex-
pected to argue that the watered-
down measure is the only bill that
has chance of passage this year
and that it's imperative to aid re-
tired workers now. More liberal
benefits for present employees can
come later, it will be argued.

supplemental money bill tomor-

The Senate Appropriations Com
mittee accepted the new House
rider modifying the curb on pro-
motions, but most committee
members apparently feel the
amendment should be repealed
entirely. The only reason the
committee didn't repeal the whole
rider entirely was that the men,
bers had spent nearly a week on
the supplemental bill and felt it
would be easier to thresh the mat
ter out on the Senate floor.
Chairman Johnston will lead the
fight to repeal the rider. Senator
Johnston stresses that the amend
lment, far from saving money. has
cost the Government millions of
dollars. owing to failure to fill es-

Taft Sees Steel Seizure
In Line With Truman
Disregard for Laws

Senator Taft, Republican. Of
Ohio charged today that seizure
of the steel industry is in line with
President Truman's general dis
regard for provisions of the Con-
.stitution and the laws of the
United States"
In a speech prepared for de-
livery at Pittsburgh, heart of the
steel industry. the Ohio Senator
denied there is any authority in
law or the Constitution for the
Seizure. He warned workers that
continued exercise of such power
could endanger their rights.
Senator Taft denied that a Presi-
dent possesses any inherent"
powers not spelled out in the Con-
Istltution or some law.
The Senator argued that If
the President can seize the steel
mills, he can seize all the union
Offices if he should be so disposed.
If he can seize the steel mills, I
see no reason why he can't arbi-
trarily seize men and draft them
into the Army. as he proposed to
do in 1916. It is true that at that
time he asked Congress to author
ize the drafting of mine workers
and railroad men into the Army,
but under the present doctrine, 1
see no reason why he could not
claim the right to do the same
thing without Congressional ac-
ton"
The Republican presidential
candidate said the Presidents
action in the steel case follows an
unjustif1ed attempt to give the
Wage Sterilization Board power
to settle disputes without comply
ling with the Defense Production
Act. He said it also follows the
usurption of the power to make
war in Korea "

Coal Producers Sian
Industry Pact in Move
To Cope With Lewis
BY the Associofed Press

The Nations soft coal produc.
ers, preparing for their expected
1852 wage battle with John L
Lewis. have quietly signed an in.
dustry pact which draws manage.
ments defense lines tighter, il
was learned today.
The BituminouS Coal Operators
Association. principal bargaining
group for the industry, has signed
up most of the Indiana and Illi-
noiS soft coal producers. These
operators long have held aloo1
from joining the national bar
gaining group. choosing to take
their own contract chances with
the United Mine Workers boss.
More Resistance Seen.
The coal industry, alerted by
Government seizure of the steel
mills and what it considers ex-
orbitant Government wage rec
concentrations for Philip Murray's
CIO steelworkers, believes it's new
agreement will give it a great deal
more resistance to Mr.. Lewis ira
ditional divide-and-conquer STRAIT
egy.
The new pact boosts the aSSo-
cations annual tonnage, on the
basis of 1851 production, to about
240 million tons of soft coal,
roughly Sc per cent of the total
soft coal produced by Mr.. Lewis
miners.
The association is headed by
Harry M. Moses, a former official
of United States Steel Corp. He
is regarded as the top bargaining
figure on the industry side and
one of the few men who can deal
with Mr.. Lewis on an even basis.
Now on 6O-Day Basis.
Mr.. Lewis, just back from a
Florida vacation, has been sitting
on his 1851 contract ever since
February l, the first day on which
he could legally have given CO.
day notice of serving his 1852
demands.
The contract is now on a con-
tinuous 60-day extension basis.
This means it can be ended by
either side. subject to so days
notice.
Mr.. Lewis is not expected to
make his new demands until the
steel dispute is settled. Union
miners already are ahead of the
Murray union in hourly wages.
And Mr.. Lewis unique welfare and
retirement fund is stocked with
about $100 million of unspent
funds.
What, then. will Mr.. Lewis ask
for? Here are some guesses:
l. He probably will ask for a
shortened work day. His $4,000
miners now work eight hours a
day, portal to portal. Before the
war, their contract called for a
Seven-hour day.
Q. Mr.. Lewis has no provision in
his master contract for paid holi-
days. Steelworkers are expected
to come up with six holidays. Mr..
Lewis is expected to want some
thing similar.
8. Shift differentials in the coal
mines are now 4 cents for the sec
ond shift and 6 for the third.
These are somewhat below the ma
tional average. So there is an
other area into which Mr.. Lewis
might move. IA

1--WE plan to bring the case tt
the Supreme Court as soon as W.
can," he said.
The ruling had been antici.
pated, he said, adding that the
union will not comment formal,
until it has had time to study
the opinion.
To Stress Two Points.
Among the points the union will
stress in its appeal, he said. are
claims that Cd the Government
has no right to say it is an en-
ployer since it has put less than
SO Army officers to work on the
railroads, and co the Government
has set up on court for union
grievances.
Said Judge Freed:
This court is impelled to OBJ
serve that injunction is not the
solution to the dispute over wages
and working conditions which has
existed for a period of three
years."
THAT the burden of resolving
the differences should be imposed
on the courts is not contemplated
in the law.
"The courts must not and
should not be used as instru-
ments to impel collective bargain
ing in good faith. ,~
Replaces Earlier Order.
"The duty rests. with the Gov
ernment, the railroads and the
unions involved.
1T is apparent, however, that
the court must in the interests of
national Safety, exercise its power
to prevent irreparable injury"
He granted a preliminary in
junction, which replaces a tenn
porary restraining order he
granted on March II to halt q
three-day strike. The preliminary
injunction will remain in effect
until he conducts a hearing on q
permanent Injunction.
The three defendant unions are
the Engineers, the Brotherhood OF
Locomotive Firemen and Engine
men, and the Order of Railway
Conductors.
The action began as the result
of the three unions strike against
the New York Central lines west
OF Buffalo. and the st. Louis Ter
minal Lines. 1t involved about
5000 strikers and resulted in lay.
offs for about $4,000 more.
