| Taft and ITU Head
Clash in Debate Over
Ban on Closed Shop

j Senator Taft, Republican of
Ohio, and Woodruff Randolph,
president of the AFL's Interna-
tional Typographical Union, en-
gagged in an angry debate yes
Iterday on the Taft Hartley laws
ban on the closed shop.
Senator Taft, pounding the
table with his fist at a Senate
Labor Committee hearing, told
IMr. Randolph his unions trouble
under the TIL Act was solely
due to your own Stubbornness. "
Mr.. Randolph, in turn charged
that Senator Taft was captured
''by an obsession" that the print
ers union had made improper de-
mands on the newspaper and
commercial printing industries.
Clash Over Union Spending.
| In sharply criticizing the TIL
law. Mr.. Randolph asserted his
union had. spent Is million in
lawsuits brought under the TIL
laws terms.
II suggest, Mr.. Randolph"
Sen. Taft broke in, that the
spending of that money was
solely due to your own stubborn
ness"
Sen. Taft said the TITUS trou-
bles stemmed from union in
sistence that, it continue closed
shop conditions in newspaper
and printing plant composing
rooms. Sen. Taft said other
printing trades unions had sue
cessfully converted to union shop
arrangements.
The labor law outlaws the
closed shop. This is a require
ment that employers hire only
union members. The law, how
ever. permits a union shop. This
allows an employer to hire any,
one but requires that the work
er, once hired, must become q
union member.
Calls 1t Impracticable.
Mr.. Randolph argued the
union shop could not be utilized
for printers. He said the union
wanted to safeguard 'the char
acter and the integrity" of its
| craft.
The union leader said the
TIL law interfered with union
practices dating back a hundred
years, and had disrupted orderly
labor relations in the printing
industry. He quoted a publica-
ton, the Publishers Auxiliary,
as advocating that the law per-
nit closed shop in the printing
industry.
Senator Taft said he expects
Congress will consider amend
ments to allow the closed shop
in the printing, maritime and
building trades industries. But
he added: my feeling now is
that if it is allowed in any in
duStry. we might as well allow
it in all industries.
Senator Taft then said he is
concerned that closed shop ar
rangements might bring a return
of "the guilds of the middle
ages with all their economic
abuses"
He said he wanted to safe
guard a. mans opportunity to
seek the work of his choice.

Baby Eight Days Old
Learns How 10 Walk
BY The Assoeioted Press

RACINE, Wis, July 11.-Mrs.
Marion Koltyn says her 20-day-
old daughter, Kelli Faye, took
her first step when she was only
eight days old.
It happened this way, says
Mrs. Koltyn:
Kelli was born June 81, weigh
ing seven pounds. Eight days
later, lying on her stomach on
the kitchen table waiting for
her bath. the baby skooched
her knees up under her, straight
ened her elbows and pushed.
Mrs. Koltyn caught her daugh-
ter under the chest. Kelli kept
pushing with her feet. And Kelli
was walking. While the aston
ished mother held Kelli's shoul-
ders, the tiny youngster pranced
around the table.
Mrs. Koltyn called DR.. Roland
Schacht. He came, watched and
decided Kelli's trip was most
unusual" Babies are often a
year old before they walk.
While doctors, grandparents
and photographers crowded the
kitchen yesterday, Kelli gave a
repeat performance. She re-
peated her hike while Drs. Ed
mund and Roland Schacht
manned cameras. A newspaper
photographer popped hashbulbs.
Then Kelli yawned and went to
sleep.
Doctors say the baby probably
will keep on walking unless she
develops stage fright.
