Labor-Management Relations. Har
monious labor-management relation:
are productive of good incomes fol
wage earners and conducive to rising
output from our factories. We be.
lieve that, to the widest possible ex.
tent consistent with the public in,
terest, management and labor should
determine wage rates and conditions
of improvement through free col
lective bargaining.
The Taft-Hartley Act passed by
the Republican dominated S0th
Congress seriously impaired this
relationship as established in the
Wagner National Labor Relations
Act, enacted under the Roosevelt
Administration. The act protected,
encouraged and guaranteed the
rights of workers to organize and
join unions of their own choice,
and to bargain collectively through
these unions without coercion.
The vicious anti-union character Of
Taft-Hartley was expressly recog-
nized by Candidate Eisenhower dur
ing the 1852 election campaign.
At that time, he made a solemn
promise to eliminate its unjust pro
visions and re-enact a fair law. Presi-
dent Eisenhower and his Administra-
tion have failed utterly, however, to
display any executive initiative or
forcefulness to keep this pledge to
workers. He was further
responsible for Enthusiastically
Taft-Hartley into more
anti-labor weapon by stack
ng the National Labor Relations
Board with biased pro-management
personnel who transformed the act
nto management weapon by ad-
decision. Among such de-
,isions was the removal of millions
# workers from the jurisdiction of
he NLRB which, in many cases, left
hem without either state or federal
protective legislation.
We unequivocally advocate re-
peal of the Taft-Hartley Act. The
act must be repealed because state
right-to-work laws have their gene
sis in its discriminatory anti-labor
provisions.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-(CNS)-
Supreme Court Justice Hugo L. Black
announced August Is he won't stop
Idaho Power Company from building
its Brownlee Dam in Hells Canyon,
pending lower court decision.
The U. S. appeals court here is
considering whether Federal Power
Commission should have given the
private utility rights to build two or
three small dams in the mile-deep
Snake River gorge.
National Hells Canyon Association

court refused.
MICA then appealed to Black
Since the Supreme Court is recessed
for the summer, any of its nine mem
bers could stay the lower courts de-

The Supreme Court justice ruled
that Idaho Power may continue
construction if it valves all claims
against the government, should the
license FPC issued be revoked. He
also said Idaho Power must post
bond guaranteeing that it will re-
store the canyon to it's original con-
dition if the courts nullify its Ii
cense.
Idaho Power attorneys said the
utility is taking "a calculated risk" in

COPE Committee
Set Up In Helena

A labor political committee has been
organized and will be known as the
Lewis and Clark Committee on Poll
tical Education, according to Chair
man Dorothy Engledow.
Other officials besides Miss Engle-
dow are Wilford Gunstone, Isabella
West, Bob Holmes, Pat Carpenter,
Ray Lindberg, John Frank and Harry
Billings.
The committee is composed of
AFL-CIO members and will assist in
registering voters, getting out the
vote and promoting county candi-
dates who are sympathetic with La
boris aims.
A registration drive is already
underway to see that all union
members and their families are
registered to vote.
The chairman pointed out that la
Dor can no longer afford to stay out
of politics, because the aims that
they have fought years for can be
wiped out in a single session of the
Legislature.
"Our committee can do much to
educate our members as to the inn
portance of registering and voting
and thereby help to insure the cleo
ton of candidates who have a sincere

CHICAGO-Members of two cleo
tric co-ops, one in Alabama and an
other in Wyoming, are thinking of
selling out to private utilities.
In Cody, Wyo., directors of Sho-
stone River Power have negotiated
for months with Pacific Power &
Light Company officials, but the best
offer they have is about half what
the SYSTEMS worth. Members will
consider the offer at special meet

TWO MORE POWER C0-0PS LOOK
DOWN SELL-0UT ROAD

! Cooperative members recently elect
ed slate of officers pledged to ar
range a sell-out. Once in office, the
new directors discovered that Ala
bama Power Company is offering
about one-fourth what the system's
worth, and they're holding up nego-
tiations.
Neither coop is in financial diff
culties. Neither power company offer
assures members of cheaper rates
or even the same rates. Each offer
would retire the co-op's debt with
Rural Electrification Administration,
plus a modest cash settlement.
The Wyoming situation revolves
around J. C. Nichols, multi-milGon-
aire rancher now living in California.
For years, he dominated the coop,
served his state as a director of Ma
tional Rural Electric Cooperative
Association. Today Nichols is the go
between, representing the coop and
receiving offers from PP&L.
In Washington, Joe Jenness,
NRECA's assistant manager, com
mented, '"These sell-out efforts are
appearing in widely separated parts
of the country. Yet everywhere, mem
bers are told they can get cheaper
power and be relieved of debt.
Systems that coop pioneers had
the forethought to establish years ago
are now worth twice or four times
what the utilities offer. Nowhere do
the utilities give any enforceable
promise that they will hold rates at
present levels.
"The real trouble is that coop
members don't fully understood the
value of their rural electric systems.
Just because they're successful, mem
oers grow complacent. They forget.
They need to continue their educa-

strictive provision denied the principle
that national legislation based on the
commerce clause of the Constitution
normally overrides conflicting state
laws.
The Taft-Hartley Act has been
proven to be inadequate, unavoidable
and unfair. 1t interferes in an arbi-
trary manner with collective bargain
ing, causing imbalance in the rela-
tionship between management and
labor.
Upon return of our national gov
ernment to the Democratic party a
new legislative approach toward the
entire labor-management problem
will be adopted, based on past ex-
perience and the principles of the
Wagner National Labor Relations Act
and the Norris-LaGuardia anti-in-
junction law.
Fair Labor Standards. We COM
mend the act of the Democratic 84th
Congress which raised the minimum
wage from rs cents to 81 an hour
despite the strenuous objection of
President Eisenhower and the Re-
publicans in Congress.
However, the inadequacies of
the minimum wage become appar-
ent as the cost of living increases,
and we feel it imperative to raise
the minimum wage to at least $1.25
an hour, more closely to approx
mate present-day needs.
We further pledge as matter of
priority to extend full protection of
the Fair Labor Standards Act to all
workers in industry engaged in, or
interstate commerce.
Walsh-Healy Act. We pledge re-
vision and honest administration of
the Walsh-Healy Act to restore it's

Promote Programs which will pro-

Maintain adequate reserves of agri-
cultural commodities, strategically To-
Gated, for national security purposes.
Such stockpiles should be handled as
necessary strategic reserves, so that
farmers will not be penalized by de-
pressed prices for their efficiency
and diligence in producing abundance.
Promote international exchange of
commodities by creating an inter
national food reserve fostering COM
modify agreements and vigorously ad
ministering the International Trade
and Development Act.
Repeal the Eisenhower flexible,
collapsible price supports and restore
supports on basic commodities at 80
per cent of parity, as provided in the
bill vetoed by President Eisenhower
and regain full 100 per cent of parity
farmers received under Democratic
administrations. We will achieve this
by means Of commodity loans, direct
purchases, direct payments to pro-
ducers, marketing agreements and
orders, production adjustments, or a
combination of these and other ap-
