Nine OF 10 TRUCKS
FL0UT SAFETY,
ice CHECK SHOWS

Roughly nine out of 10 trucks or
the highways were found to be flout-
ing safety measures in a recent ma
tion-wide road check made by district
supervisors and safety inspectors Of
the Bureau of Motor Carriers of the
Interstate Commerce Commission.
Altogether, 1874 trucks were in
spected on the roads in different parts
of the country and 1921, or 90.8 per
cent, had zone or more defects or de-
ficiencies'', or violated the law in
other ways, the ICC reported this
week.
Topping the list of defects cited by
the commission were more than 1000
involving truck brakes. Also, there
were 3,541 violations of the rule re-
quiring that drivers maintain logs of
their driving and on-duty time, and
2,448 violations of the rule requiring
drivers to carry a doctors certificate
of physical fitness.
The commission said that the study
provided information on which the
bureau may base future educational
activities or punitive action. 1t plans
more frequent checks of this kind in
an effort to reduce highway hazards
caused by the trucks.-LABOR.

500 a month. This pension is pro-
vided primarily for disabled workers
after they have exhausted their full
allowable benefits under the Work
mems Compensation Act.
An incremental wage increase will
increase slightly the shift differential
on various job classifications covered
by the contract.
On vacations, a major improvement
is also achieved in the new agree
ment with employees having a mini
mum of 10 years service receiving
21a weeks vacation pay for their an
nual two weeks vacation. Another
holiday is written into the new con-
tract. This one is a paid holiday for
each employee on his birthday. One
final improvement is an increase in
the amount of money contributed by
the company to the health and well
fare fund.
The new agreement was hammered
out after almost 10 days of "stren-
uous negotiations" with the company,
Salvas reports. The Joint Negotiating
Committee, in announcing that agree
ment had been reached with the Ana
conda, subject to rank-and-file ap-
proval, stated that they felt they had
made very substantial improvements
in the new contract over past con-
tracts with the company.

Wreck Law
Bites Dust In
Louisiana

BATON ROUGE, La.-By La
BORIS DAILY-The nations scab
law forces have taken a staggering
blow to the chin as a result of the
repeal last Thursday by the Louisi-
ana Legislature of that states So
| called right-towork statute.
After a brief but tense debate in
crowded chamber, the state Senate
voted for repeal, 81 to 18, and thus
backed the lower house which had
voted for repeal two weeks ago by
5744 count.
Erasure of the -despised law
from Louisiana's law books is GER
tain, since recently-inaugurated Gov.
Earl K. Long promised union leaders
he would go along with them in seek
ing repeal. He is expected to sign
the repeal measure.
The action of the legislature has
earned for Louisiana the honor and
distinction of reversing the trend of
scab law encroachment throughout
the nation. Prior to this, IL other
states had enacted scab laws.
Louisiana's organized labor was
able to exert sufficient influence on
the lawmakers ito achieve repeal de-
spite tremendous pressure of the we'll
heeled representatives of the anti
union groups who seek to get such
laws passed in every state.
Labor's success came as a result of
CT, r
ana's election early this year which
saw liberal Governor Long elected
with labor support by clear major
ity over several candidates, and the
defeat of the hand-picked candidate
of former Gov. Robert F. Kennon, a
Dixiecrat and Eisenhower supporter.
Labor also helped defeat several leg
islators who voted for the law during
administration.

lifelong insistence on the impor-

Born and reared in an old-fash-
iOned atmosphere of hard work
and hustle on a farm in Gloucester,
Mr.. Babson went to the Massachu-
setts Institute of Technology. Upon
graduating, he turned instinctively
to financial and business activities
in which his father was engaged.
His exertions, however, under
mined his health; he contracted
tuberculosis and he was sent West
"as good as dead"l 1t was while
he was convalescing from this
dread malady that he worked out
some of the possibilities and prob
lens of business forecasting. His
weekly releases are used by over
400 newspapers and his financial
reports by 10000 corporations and
His research work is car
ried on by large staff of experts.
Mr.. Babson founded Babson In

been active also in the establish
nent of other mediums of service
to the public, such as the Gravity

Mr.. Babson has probably done
more than any other man to create
among his millions of newspaper

Blue Cross Plans
For New Benefits

Blue Cross-Blue Shield members
who have the subscriber and
chilotTeol" type of contract are
being notified that z change is
being made in the contract to ex-
clude maternity benefits, Robert
G. Denzler, assistant managing di-
rector OF Group Hospital Service,
announced.
Effective February 1, new con-
tracts of this type will not include
maternity benefits, but existing con-
tracts of this kind will continue
to provide maternity benefits for
eligible members up to November
/, 1857.
The subscriber and child (ren)"
type of contract was originally de-
signed for widows, widowers, di-
vorced. persons and their eligible
children. Later. the category was
enlarged to cover wives and chill
dren of men in military service
and maternity coverage was in
cluded.
Now the federal government is
providing hospital-surgical-m
benefits for wives and dependent
children of men i'm active service
through the dependents of service
men coverage." Therefore, mater
nifty benefits are no longer needed
in this type of contract, Mr.. Dem
zler said.
He added that members who have
that kind of contract and desire ma
ternitv coverage should convert to-
