Experience Proves
Soundness of Act

I frankly repeat the eSti-
mate of the Taft-Hartley Act
which I have stated often in
the past. And even though the
past six years have revealed a
number of defects which
should be corrected, I believe
that it's enactment was a sub
Stantial contribution to the
quest for Sounder labor -man-
agement relations. I believe
that the experience under the
act has confirmed its essential
SoundneSs.
These defects have been un-
der critical study by this ad-
ministration. The objectives
of this study have been and
continue to be these:
Cd To remedy defects which
cause concern on the part of
working men and women over
possible results or uses of the
act to their detriment;
CD To insure administration
of the act in the manner that
is efficient, speedy and impair
tial;
90 To allow freedom for the
healthy growth of trade un-
ions, while respecting the le-
gitimate rights of individual
workers, their employers and
the general public;
(4 To work to the end that
there be less rather than more
Government interference in
labor-management affairs.
These are distinct, clearly
defined purposes. I believe
them worthy of the confident
support of all thoughtful
Americans.
These purposes have gov
erned our actions from the
outset. Shortly after the new
administration took Office, and
after series of preliminary
conferences, you will recall
that I intrusted this study Of
the Taft-Hartley Act to an
informal committee, consist
ing of executive officials and
legislative leaders who had an
intimate knowledge of the act
and its operation. This COM
mittee Immediately went to
work-holding the most de-
tailed discussions week after
week.
In the work of this commit
tee, the wealth of knowledge
and experience of the Hon.
Martin Durkin, then Secre-
tary of Labor, was an asset of
great value. Losing the bene-
fit of that knowledge and
experience was considered un-
fortunate by me and by every

know that your convention
will, in this spirit. deliberate on
many critical issues before you.
OF this deliberation, a great
part will focus on changes in
the Labor Management Rela-
tions Act. 1947, generally
known as the Taft Hartley
Act.
This legislation affects vir-
tuaIly every sector of our eco
nomic life. Its discussion is
too serious to be governed by
passion and invective, rather
than cool reason and common
sense. Epithets of "anti-labor
or "anti-industry" and the like
are worse than empty. They
are utterly obsolete in a cli-
mate of opinion and under
standing that realizes the folly
of class hostility.
The issues at stake are not
the possessions of class or
group. They are not the par
tisan property OF any political
party. They belong to the
whole of America-and SO must
the hearts and minds resolving
them.

Eisenhower Message Promises Action on Hartley Act Chonoes

FOLLOWING is the tert of Pres
.jdent EiSeRhoDer'S message to
the American Federation of
Labor Convention in st. Louis
today:
To the 72nd annual conven-
vention Of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor. send my
sincere good wishes. In this
expression, I am certain that
all Americans heartfully join.
We Americans are proud of
our trade unions. Their his
tory of honorable achieve
ment, spanning more than a
half century, testifieS to the
wisdom and strength of free
labor. The reward of that his
tory for labor-in partnership
with resourceful capital, en-
lightened management and
Inventive geniuS-haS been
the attainment of the highest
standard of living man has
ever achieved.
This triumph has meant
much more than the amasSing
of worldly goods and their
generous distribution through
our whole society. 1t has
meant proof that free men can
know the blessings of both
abundance and justice-be-
yond all boasts or dreams of
slave economies. And it has
meant, in time of desperate
peril to our Nation, the
strength enabling free men
everywhere to beat back the
assaults of totalitarian ag-
greSSion.
From the ranks of labor have
come other contributions to
the Nation. These have been
things of the spirit: The self
less devotion of working men
and women and their leaders
to the whole public welfare
reasoned respect for the rights
and needs of others-deep love
of country, inspiring a patriot
ism no less meaningful in mine

Sentimental tributes but as the
basic and unShakable convic-
tions of this administration.
They are neither lightly Spo-
ken nor loosely held. They are
principles governing our I'M
derstanding of labor and the
making of every decision con-
cerning labor.

however, that this was all they

PARIS, Sept. 10.-France is
parading her weaknesses to
such a degree that not even
the richest or most hardened
tourist can escape noticing
them. A popular guidebook
advises those who have pre-
,viously enjoyed visits to this
country to go elsewhere this
,year-and it is probably good
advice.
But NATO can't take it,
since the environs of Paris are
its home and crucial air bases
are in operation on French
soil. Yet this display of mill
tary solidarity-plus the Schu-
man plan and the European
Defense Community which are
designed to Europeanize Ger
many's military potential

the French.

for President. He still was full
of vigor and ideas, and he
never spared his party of either
until his death in 1925. While
his influence was really deci-
sive thereafter only in 1912,
when he maneuvered the
nomination of Woodrow Will
son at Baltimore, he continued
to busy himself in his party's
affairs and was a factor always
to be considered, finally to the
annoyance of many party
leaders who regarded him as
mostly a busybody.
When Teddy Roosevelt left
the White House in 1909 he
was only 81, and he continued
to breathe on the neck of his
party constantly thereafter.
Sometimes his breath was al
most too hot, as in 1912 when,
after his break with President
William Howard Taft whom he
had hand-picked for his sue
cessor, he sought to defeat his
one-time protege on the Bull
Moose third-party ticket and
in the effort split the party
wide open to encompass the
election of Woodrow Wilson.
Thereafter he was energetic,

cially a cabinet officer who rep
resented one particular point
Of view.
If the President had had the
benefit of good political advice,
he would have selected a labor
man of less partisan connec-
tions in the first instance. The
late Senator Taft, who called
the Durkin appointment sin
credible" felt there were sew
eral other men from whom a
good selection. friendly to
labor could have, been made.
The Ohio Senator said he
would work with Mr.. Durkin
he didn't vote against his
confirmation. Mr.. Taft was
ready to make certain 1egisla-
tive concessions. too, but not
on issues believed by him to be
fundamental in protecting the
public interest. He didn't be-
lieve in special privilege for
any group.
Actually it was a mistake for
the White House entourage to
become entangled in an effort
to rewrite the labor law. It
would have been sufficient to
express general principles and
leave it to Congress to write
the law. There is a two-thirds
majority in both houses for a
retention of the Taft-Hartley
Act in substantially its present
form. Very few amendments
would have gotten through
Congress anyway, even if Mr..
Eisenhower had accepted the
Durkin viewpoint.
1t would have been better
politics for the President to
have kept aloof from detailed
recommendations altogether.
It is not too late for him to
adopt that course and let
union labor wrestle with Con-
gress, which is supposed to
protect all the people and not
just a privileged group. Writ
ing legislation isn't an execu-
tive function.

The reasons are fairly OBJ
vious:
West Germany's extraor-
dinary recovery in four years
is the first. In 1949, the prin-
cipal German cities were still
heaps of rubble, factories
were still being dismantled
and 8 million displaced Ger
mans from the East were
pressing upon the economy.
Since then West Germany
has done a rebuilding job un-
surpassed in Europe, or, for
that matter, in history.
1t has absorbed most of the
fugitiveS despite the fact that
the influx has never halted.
1t has recovered its foreign
markets at a rate to discomfit
its competitors.
Its currency is the most
stable in Europe except the
Swiss franc. The man in the
street asks: "Why changer"
Secondly, West Germany has
recovered almost complete
sovereignty and the rise of it's
international and diplomatic
prestige has been sensational.
Most Of the states of the
world-except those of the
Communist bloc-have recog-
nized the West German re-
public and opened embassies or
legations in Bonn.
The visit of Chancellor
Adenauer to America was not
that of a satellite come to pay
tribute, but of a national leader
to whom spontaneous tribute
was paid.
This was due to actions each
OF which received too little at
tention. One has been the
Chancellor's conscientious de-
sire to make whatever amends
are possible to the worlds
Jews, both individually and
collectively, via Israel. To sue
coed in doing the latter without
seriously adverse repercussions
in the Arab world was di-
plomacy on a high level.
Why change?
Nevertheless, the election
