this gag and defeat their effort to

McDev1Lt'S chief target was the pol
itical gag law" on unions passed by
the last session of the Wisconsin legis-
lature He labelled this an "unconsti-
tutional enactment of one of the most
unfair legislative acts with which this
nation has ever been confronted.
'Nowhere else in this world, even
including some Iron Curtain countries
have workers been so restricted" Me
Dewitt asserted, adding that this is
the way tyrannies have started
throughout the world.
HOW LAW WORKS
Under the gag law, the AF'L politi-
cal chief pointed out, "your union is
barred from paying for radio or tele-
vision time to be used for political
purposes. 1t cannot sponsor a panel
program at which all candidates ap-
pear. 1t cannot send letter to its
members soliciting contributions.
"It cannot contribute money to a
political committee to get citizens to |
the polls on election day. 1t cannot
contribute money to political COM
mittee for the purpose of supporting
or opposing any public issue"
The law, he added, prohibits labor
from running political
ads in daily papers or publishing PAM
phlets or leaflets endorsing candi-
dates for office" /

Elm recent year, according
TO a Small Business Committee

operatives were doing business
In this country. During this
same year, there were IS, 900
other organizations which did
not call themselves coopera-
tives but which operated on
basis isofservice to their members,
much like our co-ops do.
"Among these were groups of
grocery, hardware and clothing
stores. By pooling the buying
power of hundreds of stores
they make savings which are
passed on to the member stores,
helping them meet competition
through higher quality mer-
chandise at more favorable
prices.

ate much like co-ops and benefit

About returning to the sur
