ministrative officer, is an Eisenhower
appointee too.
TALK ONE WAY, ACT ANOTHER
In his 10000 word analysis of the
boards activities, Morse noted that
back in 1852 "even Eisenhower said
he recognized that the Taft-Hartley
law needed amending to remove many
of its anti-labor inequities."
"But while this is the avowed posi-
ton of the President and the Republi-
can party, it is not their actual posi-
tion," Morse concluded. "What they
really believe our national labor
policy should be is written in the
decisions of the men they have ap-
pointed to the board.
"And they have appointed them
to the board" Morse continued, "for
the precise purpose Of making anti
labor amendments to the statute by
a means which they hope Congress
and the people will not penetrate.
The aim and effect has been to turn
Taft-Hartley into San even more

Blnegar obtained picture
from Clarence Foreman, who
formerly operated the store, and
now Crooked Tree is possibly
Ohio's smallest town with a dis
tinctive picture postcard.
AS near as the oldest residents
of the ridge top town can figure,
the tree disappeared about 70
years ago. Local legend is that
the tree was bent and tied while
still sapling, by Indians who
used it to mark their trail.
The trunk grew parallel to
the ground to the point where
the limbs developed, and then
it shot skyward, giving the ap-
pearance of a woodland couch
for some Paul Bunyon-type char
acter.
Oldtimers remember the tree
in its dying days, and recall that
a blacksmith shop stood on the
site after the tree fell.
The tree site is now part of
Binegar's front yard, and it is
marked by a large stone which
Indians once used to grind grain.
The stone, found in a nearby
valley, has a hallow spot for the
corn, and it was moved to the
crooked tree site by folks who
wished to give the spot a per
manent mark.
Crooked Tree is in Southern
Noble county, about 10 miles
