HALFWAY POINT near IN U.J.W.F. drive;
TOTAL NOW $4,000; PROSPECTS BRIGHT
No 81 Recession
Seen BY Analyst

NEW YORK - Widely held
fears of ONE month ago that
1854 would witness a general re-
cession in the American econO-
my are not being fulfilled, and
today a more optimistic view
appears to be warranted" DIR.
Louis HI. Bean, independent
Washington economist and vet
eran government analyst, told
members of the board Of the
National WOmen's Division of
the United Jewish Appeal last
week.
1T is now possible to check up
on the almost unanimous fore
cast of a month ago that a 1854
recession is in the making" DIR.
Bean declared. "The fact is
that things are not going as
badly as our economic analysts
feared"
DIR. Bean, who won high dis
tinctiOn in 194S as one of the
few analysts to forecast Presl-
dent Truman's reelection, told
the women leaders of UJA that
calls for increased support of
the Appeals 1854 campaign are
warranted by the continuation of
a high level of American busi-
ness prosperity.
DIR. Bean dismissed the pros
pect of a general economic re-
cession with the claim that elf
We were really faced with a
sharply deteriorating business
situation, We would see declin-
ing farm prices and a falling off
in rural sales"
"These we have already had"
he told the UJA women, "but at
present we are witnessing

SEOUL, May 31.-The South
Korean government-subsidized
daily newspaper, the Korean

recent visit of three American
governors as "a glistening
whitewash job for all phases of
the reconstruction and rehabili-
tation efforts"
The editorial was accompanied
by a cartoon showing three
blind-folded men holding their
hands over their ears. They
were shown squatting on a fly
ing carpet for the flying trip

over Korea. The cartoon was
entitled, "see nothing, hear
nothing, learn nothing"
The paper declared:
Korea is fully prepared to
admit that there are two sides
to the reconstruction story and
that all the right may not be
on our side. But as far as the
supposedly impartial investi-
gators are concerned, there is
only one point of view, and
that belongs to those who ap-
parently are more interested in
building up bureaucratic empires
than in creating a strong and
healthy Korea :"

Fur Workers Barred
From NLRB for
Keeping Ben Gold
By the Asseeiaiad Press

The International Fur and
Leatherworkers' Union has been
barred from using the National
Labor Relations Board because
its members kept Ben Gold as
president after he was con-
victed of falsely denying he was
q Communist.
Under the Taft-Hartley law,
q union cannot use NLRB facili-
ties to obtain and enforce work.
ers' bargaining rights unless the
unions officers file affidavits
with the NLRB disclaiming COM
munism.
Gold, an avowed Communist
for 80 years, filed such an
affidavit in August, 1850, saying
he had just quit the Communist
Party the day before to make it
possible for him to sign the
oath so his union would be
eligible to use the NLRB.
Now Free on Bail.
The Government obtained an
, Indictment charging Colds af-
f1davit was "a fake and fraud"
and that although he was for
mally disclaiming Communist
membership, he actually re-
mained a party member and
sympathetic to Communist aims.
Last April 80 Gold was con-
victed and subsequently SEN
fenced to from one to three
years in prison. He has ap-
-pealed and is now free on
$40, 900 bail.
- After Colds conviction, the
-~NLRB ordered his union-which
was ousted from the CIO five
:. years ago on charges of follow
ing Soviet policies-either to fire
Gold from union Office or to dem
onstrate why the union still
should be considered eligible to
use the NLRB.
On May II the unions con-
vention unanimously reelected
Gold to a new tWo-year term as
president. Gold recently filed a
new affidavit with the NLRB.
again claiming he was neither a
Communist nor sympathetic with
the Red cause.
New Affidavit Rejected.
..= The NLRB announced yester-
day it was rejecting this new
affidavit and said the union
would be considered ineligible to
use its facilities until it elects
officers who can comply with
the Taft-Hartley laws require
mentS.
1t was the first time a national
labor organization has thus been
barred from access to the boards
union-helping processes.
It means that any other union
now may seek an election among
workers represented by the fur
leather union and the latter
union will be barred from a place
on the NLRB's ballot in an elec-
tion to determine whether the
workers want to be represented
= by new union.
