midst of the greatest surge OF
working-class strength in Ameri--
can history. For the AFL the unfit
cation marks the official recogni-
ton of industrial unionism. To the
little closed circle of top AFL lead
ers the family breach has been
healed.
It is entirely Characteristic of the
limited outlook of both the AFL
and CIO hierarchy that the last
days of separate existence were
marked by much pulling and haul
ing over issues involving the pres
tige, power and relative standing
of the various officials.
And there has been big jump
in NLRB elections as number of
AFL and CIO unions seek to in
crease their contracts and member
ships preparatory to negotiations
for direct union mergers.
The new constitution provides
that "affiliates shall respect the
established bargaining relationship
of every other affiliate and no
affiliate shall raid the established
collective bargaining relationship
of any other affiliate" But it is
doubtful that this clause will have
much effect d, upon =. organizations

band wore a tOupee.
O. How can / exercise to inn

A. This is one of the best: Sit

like the Teamsters or AFL Seafar-
erS who consider cannibalistic raid
ing to be standard union strategy.
The AFL Metal Trades and
Building Trades blocked any clause
in the constitution of the new labor
federation giving equal. member
ship rights to both Negro and white
workers.
The CIO fought for a clause
guaranteeing "full membership
rights" for all, but settled for a
compromise which reads full
union benefits to ALL" This leaves
the Jim Crow set-up that exists in
many AFL unions.
Negro trade unionists through
out the country have protested this
reactionary clause. They have also
demanded that one of the 27 vice
presidents of the new body be
Negro. However, even if the AFL
as concession names someone like
A. Philip Randolph, the shameful
racial clause will remain.
The merger has been in the MAX
ing for years. 1t is a defensive re-
alignment primarily due to the
threat of the Taft-Hartley Act, Sec
ondarily to the defeat of the Demo-
Gratis in 1852 and finally to the
hope that a united bureaucracy can
help the Democrats win in 1856.
Regardless of the motives of the
narrow-minded, conservative lead
ers of the AFL and CIO, the mer
ger is of great political significance.
The hopes and aspirations of the
American working class will in
evitably center around the new Or
ganization. The hierarchy is bound
to feel increasing pressure in the
direction of independent political
action.
Despite all the shortcomings of
the new body, its formation must
be viewed as progressive step
opening up new paths for the labor
movement.

Toughest Ahti-Segregotion
Fiqht Still Ahead

The rapid advances made by the Negro in economic,
political and social gains since the end OF World war IL
has been cmaxed by the United States Supreme Court
decisions outawng restrictive housing covenants segre
cation public education and public recreation
Other rulings other court levels have opened the polls
and other ways legally guaranteed them many OF the
rights taken for granted by the majority group Of this
nation.
AS tough as the battle to the courts and through
them to clear cut DECISIONS the hardest job is still ahead
These decisions must be transmitted to the local
level of every state city and community Until citizens
everywhere enjoy the rights guaranteed by the Y. s.
Constitution the fight is far from over;
the years since the tribunal ruled that restrictive
covenants were unconstitutional only hand full of Ne
groes have made the jump the tracks into non
segregated living In most Instances 1t was the fl
nancally independent Negro who attempted to use his
rights under the constitution These efforts have IN most
instances resulted violence the damaging of prop
ery unless the local authorities fit to uphold the
federal law. Then things worked smoothly.
More success has been realized with the court ruling
expected The line has been broken in several states,
some even in the deep south, and are crumblng
In other areas suits have been filed seeking the death
toll for the dual education system LOUISIANA, OF course
has fought the decree vigorously

segregation in recreation will another problem AS

How to bring these court decisions into reality will
be the big question facing Negro leaders IN ne years
ahead The call out for wise, sane leaders VINO know
their community and have feeling for when the f1gnI

closely. Diplomats, of intelligence and backbone
are needed
The wears ahead are fateful ones The Negro can be
too meek and lose these paper gains He can too fusn

promises to be interesting and rich in the treasures OF
full citizenship The call is out for leaders to mark the

Major Operation

The official District summary OF de-
partmental budget requests confirms
earlier predictions that major surgical
operation is in order OF the District
Building. The operation will be per-
formed in stages, beginning today and
continuing through the week. The need
for heavy use Of the knife on the record
$213 million total is apparent from the
analysis by the city budget office, which
shows nearly $14 million requested In ex-
cess Of the approved public works pro-
gram alone. Furthermore, the depart
ments want to hire nearly 1900 additional
employees and expand various services.
Undoubtedly the various department
heads are ready to defend their estimates
as necessary or desirable. They will have
the opportunity to do so at the series OF
hearings to be held by the Commissioners
this week. But the department officials
are concerned chiefly with their own
wants, whereas the Commissioners have
the responsibility of weighing all OF these
needs against the Districts ability to pay
for them. They face this task already
burdened with an So million bill Tor IN
creased salaries that must be provided
for-and no money available to defray
this added cost unless local taxes are
raised substantially. The total OF the
excess requested above the current budget
is $434 million.
So the size of the task devolving on
the Commissioners is plain. They must
cut deeply without touching vital spots,
and then, having satisfied themselves
that further slicing would be against the
public interest, must prepare new tax
program to cover the deficit. The
chances are that the result will not please
everyone, but the job has to be done,
nevertheless.

The PorkkoIu Gesture

Throughout most of the postwar
years the men of the Kremlin have made
a kind of showpiece of their relations
with Finland. There have been occasional
strains between the two countries, but on
the whole-if only for propaganda pur-
poses-the Soviet Union has let its little
northern neighbor run its own affairs
And now, as sort of grand gesture, 1t
has announced to the Firms that the big
naval base of Porkkala is to be returned
to them forthwith.
This is news that will be cheered
throughout Finland. For what it means
is that that country will regain full
possession of 152-square- mile area near
the capital city of Helsinki. The area
has been occupied by Russian forces since
1914 under 50-year leasing" arrange
ment that has made it, in effect, Soviet
territory. Accordingly, now that the
Kremlin has decided to hand 1t back to

Woit-ond Pay More

Federal, State and county funds now
are available for purchase OF the nrst
rights of way in Fairfax County for the
George Washington Memorial Parkway
but there may be difficulties still ahead.
The matching funds, totaling $2oO,OOu
were based on estimates of cost made
several wears ago. Since then real estate
prices have been going up ana, more
recently, spectators have shown interest
in tentative plans of the Central Intein-
gence Agency to build ''little Pentagon'
near Langley, close to the planned route
for the parkway. 1t is predetermined
whether the money which finally has
been released for land buying VIII 60 as
far as originally intended.
With the appropriation by Congress
Of 100000 toward the right OF way ac-
QUESTION program in Fairfax County, the
county board has complied with its part
of the bargain by contributing $5O,0Oo
toward the INTERPRETATIONS fund. the
state already had made its $4,000 avail
able. Earlier this year, however, realty
activity in the vicinity OF the proposed
parkway took a squirt. In one transac-
ton q group of Texans bought 500 acres
of land lying along the Potomac River,
about where the parkway would pass.
Some other property owners may view
the prospective move of the Ola as lustl-
hcation for rise in realty values.
The outlook in Fairfax County In
many respects resembles the situation
that developed in Arlington County when
delays were encountered in obtaining
money for land buying. Additional APP
propriations had to be made by all three
Jurisdictions involved before the land
needed to carry the parkway to Chain
Bridge was reserved. It would not be
surprising If the story were repeated IN

procrastination in securing rights OF way
for the parkway.
