WRS-N.C.W.C. headquarters here
Father Alfred Schneider, dele
gate of the American Hierarchy
relief agency in Frankfurt, report
ed that most of the 25.000 have
hopes of coming to the United
States under the 1853 Refugee Re.
lief Act, which provides for the
admission of 214,000 refugees to
this country over three-yesr peri
cd.
In his report 10 Mssr. Edward
z. Swanstrom, WRS-N.c.W.C. ex-
eeufivs director, Father Sehnei-
der said that "the economic xifU-
alton in western Germany is con-
finUally improving, but that
"overpopulsfion is so great many
people cannot find room 70 live"
The report also said: "our or
ganizsfion is expendins great ef-
fort in striving 70 intesrste
residual and new efhnie refugees
into the country, and although
the Catholic Church is extreme
ly active il cannot hope 10 solve
the problem without assistance"
Many thousands of the refugees
got their first taste of butter as a
result of the WRS-N.C.W.C. pro.
grams. Father Schneider reported.
He said that wherever one travels
expressions of gratitude are ex-
tended to the American people and
WRS-N.C.W.C. representatives are
looked on as ambassadors of good
will" He said that the surplus
commodities shipments of butter,
cheese and powdered milk to Ger
many from the us. by WRS.
N.C.W.C. have been a God-send
to these unfortunate people" and q
great help to the relief programs
carried on by the Catholic Church
in Germany.
Father Schneider reported that
much good has been done with
funds provided under the US.
Escapee Program He said: 'Since
inception of the Escape Program
two years ago, the German Mis-
sion spent nearly $500,0OO of gov
ernmental money for Catholic
escapes in Germany. The escapee
thus feels after having fled his
home behind the Iron Curtain that
his Church is beside him In his ex-
lie and has not left him empty
handed The need for social,
refugee and immigration work is
still great, although not as urgent
as in east Germany

Few Die-t4srds
There are still a few die-hzrd
politicians around, Of course. who
resent change Of any kind and
cling, with growing desperation, to
obsolete ideas and customs. This
is also true. generally speaking, of
the older generation. But young
people In every part Of the South
welcome progress that is IN har-
mony with Christian and American
ideals.
Catholics in the South are, in
most places, a small minority of
the total population. Catholic Ne
groes are only a tiny segment of
the total Negro population. The
Catholic feeling in many sections
is that the Protestant majority has
the major responsibility for sbol-
ishinS racial segregation and dis
elimination.

lie school segregation has been
required By Law. DR.. 0'Connor re-

That scene, to be viewed on
television screens all over the
country this month, symbolizes
organized labor's aggressive part
in the current political cam
paigns. 1t represents just one OF
the devices labor's political or
ganizations, operating from
headquarters in Washington, are
using to help their friends in the
November elections and, in effect.
return Congress to Democratic
control.
Leaflets and Pamphlets.
Other devices labor is using
are leaflets and pamphlets, infor-
nation on individual candidates
and issues, material presenting
the union viewpoint on the Eisen-
hover administration, assistance
in local registration and get-out-
the-vote drives and-last but
certainly not least - substantial
campaign contributions.
The puppet show quoted from
is one of Is being filmed and
issued by the CLOS Political Ac-
ton Committee for use by PAC-
backed candidates. The films
each run As seconds and probably
were inspired by the "Ike" TV
spots used so successfully by the
Republicans in the last days Of
the 1852 campaign.
Produced at PAC expense they
are provided free to any candi-
date or organization willing to
buy television time and put them
on the air.
A list of the subjects dealt
with in the puppet films shows
what labor is hitting hard in
this years campaigns: "unem-

tions," taxes" "give-away pro-

Staff of a Dozen.
PAC conducts its activities
from the CLOS sleek headquar-
ters on Jackson place, just a
block from the White House.
There, Director Jack Kroll and
staff of about a dozen keep a
close watch on the political pic
ture, prepare campaign mate
rial and advise PAC's operating
committee on where contribu-
tions to candidates would do
the most good.
A few blocks away. in suite
in the Cafritz Building, AFL's
Labor's League for Political Edu-
cation performs similar func-
ton under James L. McDevitte,
former president of the Penn
sylvania Federation of Labor.
LLPE has a staff of 81.
And at 10 Independence ave-
nue. is the headquarters of the
third big Washington labor-po-
litical group-Railway Labor'S
Political League.
There are also other organiza-
tions. The United Mine Workers.
for example, have their Labor's
Non-Partisan League. This
group confines itself to indors-
ing candidates and issuing in

It does not give financial cam
paign help.
"a Buck for PAC."
Because of restrictions in the
Hartley law, the political
organizations cannot use trade
union funds for direct campaign
activity, although such funds can
be used for general educational
work of a political nature. There
fore, all three groups conduct
dollar drives among union men,
bers-"A Buck for PAC," the CIO
people call it. The success of
these drives is revealed by re-
ports recently filed with the
Clerk of the House of Represen-
tativeS.
From January l until August
81, the PAC collected $215,916
for it's directly political fund and
| it received an additional 1924 ,625
| in union funds for it's "educa-
tional" fund. The $215.916 was

matched by similar amount re-
naming with local PACs, since
only so cents of every dollar col
lected in the dollar drives comes
to Washington.
LLPE collected $241, ,652 in the
same period, half of which was
sent back to the States from
which it was received. Railway
Labor's Political League took in
SAL ,238 between January l and
August 81.
Monthly Report"
A candidate with labor backing
can benefit substantially from
these funds. The reports to the
House show. for example. that
Democratic Senator Paul Doug
las of Illinois and groups work.
ing for him received campaign
contributions of $4,000 from
Labor's League, $4,000 from PAC
and $1,000 from the Railway
League. These amounts are in
addition, of course, to contribu-
tions received from local labor
organizations.
Part of labor's political budget
goes into publications. LLPE. for
example, puts out a monthly
Report" which is widely re-
printed in union newspapers and
magazines. It also issues an ex-
haustive examination of the vot-
ing records of all members of
Congress on 80 key issues over
the past eight years.
The latter publication scores
the legislators "R" or "W"-
right" or "wrong"-on each
vote. Thus. New York's Demo-
cratic Senator Herbert Lehman
has a solid string of "Rs" after
his name, while Ohio's Senator
Bricker, Republican, is just as
solidly "W."
The PAC puts great stress on
it's vote registration program.
One official estimated that back
in 1914 only Is per cent of CIO
members were registered, while
by election time this year PAC
hopes to see 80 per cent regis
tered. Since PAC figures IS per
cent of CIO members follow its
advice on voting, the registration
drive, plus an election day get
out-the-vote drive, figures to
bear fruit.
"Swim or Drown"
A new twist in the 1854 cam
paign is the heavy emphasis
being placed on political work
among the wives of union men,
bers. Both the PAC and LLPE
have full-time women's directors,
A PAC official frankly admit
ted that this new emphasis was
the result of the Eisenhower
vote in 1852, which convinced
us that many union wives, swung
largely by the Korean issue, did
not vote with their husbands"
The labor unions defend their
big-scale entrance into politics
on the grounds of economic sur
vival. PAC puts it this way:

day economic problems and po-
litical problems are inseparable
