PROBLEMS INSEPARARLE FROM LOCAL WELFARE

'How far that little candle throws its BEAM. says
old poem It could be ParaPhased unpOetcaIy to read
How tar the consequences of strike extend"
The New York newspaper strike which deprived the worlds
second largest city of its principal media of information and
advertising for days is perfect example, Moreover it
illustrated how unique place the newspapers hold in
munty
The strike brought by Photoengravers union which
has 4oo-odd members employed the major New York pa
pers Actually only 2o7 votes favor of the strike
but majority. The papers of course could have ap
peared without pictures other engravers
picket lines and made publication impossible.
As result some 10000 people were temporarily forced
out Of work and very large payroll temporarily suspend
ed And the publishers sde huge amount of holiday ad
vertng business lost.
This only he beginning To many stores and especially
those which major in phone and mail orders the newspaper
The dominant factor in advertising 1t the only daybyday
medium for usually offering goods TO vast numbers of
tena buyers No will know how much retail business
lost because OF the strike but many store executives
it substantial Time bought radio and TV
stations. But these media of only limited value TO retailers
for the part and top of that relatively little desirable
time available.
New York City has 900 newssfands and about $500
OF them shut down entirely All of the rest naturally suffered
from the lack Of papers to SELL which the backbone Of
the business considerable proportion of the stands
operations which at best bring very modest incomes TO
the owners.
The effects the strike went far. For instance Wall
Street Journal article pointed out what did TO the art and
TO give ecitas at Town Hail. in the hope that favorable
from the critics would lead TO engagements elsewhere
in this country and abroad The played and the
critics but there places for +he reviews
to appear. An artists agent commented GOOD reviews here
make artists whole year profitable Absence of reviews
be DISASTROUS.
play also opened during +he strike and no one knew
whether hit flop Movie theatres and sports
had effective of pubIicizing their attractions.
Finally ofcourse the public which buys $4,000 copies
day Of the New York papers, discomfited The
magazines diverted extra copies into the city, but there
not enough Of them to meet the demand.
Whether not the photoengravers wage and other de-
mands justified is matter of argument But there be
argument about The fact that the action of very small
number of people in like this directly affect the
lives of many millions.

which win handle this subject House Ways
and Means and Senate Finance probably
will have majority memberships faVoring
the Presidents program.
It is true, of course, that certain tariff
reductions could be harmful to individual
industries but persuasive case has been
made by the President and by others that
carefully exercised policy Of bargaining on
trade concessions could benefit the overall
economy.
"The exercise of the authority under
the Presidents direction would be recipro-
CAL" Chairman Randall of the Foreign Eco
nomic Policy Commission has emphasized.
"The United States would get for what it
gave, and whatever came to pass in the way
of reducing our barriers to the goods Of

a Challenge to Congress

( President Eisenhower has served notice
that his first request to the 84th Congress
will be for new authority to liberalize re-
strictions on foreign trade. The kernel OF
his recommendation presumably will be that
The Chief Executive be allowed, subject to
successful negotiations with other countries,
TO reduce by per cent yearly over three
year period the tariffs on various imports.
"A similar request, following the suggestion
of a special Commission on Foreign Eco
nonic Policy, was made to the 83d Congress
but was compromised in the final weeks or
last summers session with simple one-year
extension of the Reciprocal Trade Agree
mertS Act.
On numerous occasions the President
has made clear that one Of the high-priority
objectives Of his administration is to lower
some Of the present barriers to freer how
of international trade. It is his opinion,
as expressed on these occasions, that such
q policy would be advantageous to this
country and would serve to strengthen the
economy Of the entire free world. There
has been, however, determined resistance
to this philosophy mostly Within the Re-
publican Party itself, although shared by
some protectionist-m minded Democrats-and
1t is due to encounter skillfully directed OPP
position again.
Actually, the Presidents chances win be
favored In the next Congress by the fact
that most Democrats, including the leader

Capitol Hill. are avowed supporters OF the

he leaves much To be desired.
When Senator Mccarthy realized
that from the very beginning the Presi-
dent had actively opposed his efforts
to redeem the oft-repeated campaign
pledge to drive the Communists out Of
Government, his cup of bitterness was
filed to Overfi0Wing and he reacted in
characteristic human fashion, 1t is not
necessary to approve the Senator's
criticism of the President to Sympa-
thize with him In his disillusionnlent.
The inevitable break had its genesis
In the military system Of discipline
where the general is top dog and
all must bow to his will, however arbi-
trary and ill-advised.
A recently published Gallup poll
inside the Republican Party showed
that Of 80 per cent Of those interviewed
who expressed an opinion. SGT per cent
were opposed to cerlsure. The question
now is. Can harmony be restored be-
fore the 1856 Republican convention?
II not it is certain that the Communist
conspiracy will use the same techniQues
to split the Democratic Party and
eventually the Nation itself. There
fore, the delegates should ballot not
as Eisenhower or Mccarthy, Republicans
but as c. o. p Republicans and nomi-
nate as their candidate one who will
welcome cooperation, from whatever
source, in our fight against the Com
munist conSpirators. OF course,
pledge from the President to retire to
his Gettysburg estate at the end of his
present term would be welcome solu-
ton for it NAV be safely predicted
that Senator Mccarthy will be re-
elected by his Wisconsin constituents.

Red Literory Burlesque

Soviet writer's are famous for the way
they attack each other and whip themselves
with self-criticism for occasionally letting
their novels, poemS etc., deviate from the
twists and turns of official Kremlin doctrine.
But now they seem to have carried this
patriotic" Communist obligation to the very
extreme of what might be called masoschism
among the literary eggheads of Russia. For
at the national convention they have just
held in MoScow-their first In 90 years
they have done much more than merely be-
rate themselves as theological backsliderS
who have failed to be perfect in tailoring
their art to the beauties of Marxisn-L -Lenin-
-Stalinism- -Malenkovism. Worse still,
far worse, they have come close to burles-
quing the whole business by adopting
resolution deploring the fact that they earn
too much money and receive too many
medals.
Here, surely, Is an example of self
criticism carried way beyond the bounds of
that realism" that total materialiSm, that
Is supposed to be root dogma of the Soviet
system. Why should not the good Marxist-
feminist alinist-M -Malenkovist writer be
handsomely paid when he surpasSes the
state-decreed norms In producing novels or
poems that are concerned not so much with
art or truth as with the great task" OF ad-
vancing the cause of communism? And why
should workers hero. Of this sort be de-
MED the pleasure and proper reward Of
being showered with all kinds Of medals?

contrary? Woe betide him II he's caught.

According to Gould Lincoln, Presi-

seems to believe that no matter how

self among the Senator's friends" by
reason of firm conviction that recent

the nature of '.iynching bee" make
this point: That Mr.. Lincoln's reason
ing is In error. For obvious reasons. the
resentment directed toward Democrats
is much more dispassionate and in
some cases actually tinged with q re-
luctant respect for their superior po-
litical sagacity.
It was quite feat for Democrats to
vanquish a vigorous and determined
opponent without shedding drop of
Democratic blood, and in the doing to
create dissension and distrust within
Republican ranks.
BY contrast, the resentment against
Republicans for the part they played
in developing this "split" Is q much
more personal and emotional reaction.
For the Republicans must be credited
with allowing themselves to be used by
extreme left-wing groups.
Further reason for resentment against
the administration too is that some Of
the present propaganda which seeks
to place an extremist" label on any
person who refuses to condone these
tactics is believed to be coming from
White House sources. This propaganda
ignores the fact that large majority

This Needless SLAUGHTER

Those of us who escaped the fate Of the
more than 800 persons who were killed on
the highways over the Christmas week end
would do well to ponder the question posed
by Ned II. Dearborn, National Safety Council
president: How much more Of this needless
slaughter is 1t going to take to shock the
rest of us into using extra care to meet the
extra hazards of holiday driving?" The
question is of undiminiShed, current impor-
tance, for another holiday week end lies just
ahead
That great deal of the slaughter is,
indeed, needless has been proved time and
again during special accident-reduction
drives. The most recent of these, on Safe
Driving Day, December Is, brought graft
flying drop in traffic deaths from the usual
daily total of 104. The death rate was cut
in half that day, after an intensive publicity
and enforcement campaign, led by President
Eisenhower. It is shocking that so soon
after that impressive lesson the fatality
rate should have jumped back approx
mately to normal" or worse. In fact the
toll was the highest for two-day holiday
ever recorded, exceeding 1948'S previous rec
ord Of 277 highway dead.

Station Driveway Restricted

Driving to Union Station never is a
pleasant experience, and now it Is even
worse since one more restriction has
been added. You cannot drive your car
in the lane nearest the station. since
that lane is the exclusive right Of one
taxicab company.
If you are bringing train passengers
to the station, you must discharge them
in the second lane and then try to get
around the cabs lined up. This is my
first experience in having the entrance
to great station blocked by taxis watt
ing to pick up passengers. believe
that the operators Of Union Station
would profit more by restoring the first
lane to all users of the station.
