Supreme Court and Unionism

into theological and political
associations which violate
their right to freedom of con-
science. freedom of association,
and freedom Of thought pro-
tected by the Bill of Rights.
1t is said that once a man be-
comes a member of these
unions, he is subject to vast
disciplinary control and that
by force of the Federal act
unions now can make him con-
form to their theology.
ION the present record, there
Is no more infringement or
impairment of First Amend
ment rights than there would
be in the case of a lawyer who
by State law is required to be
a member of an integrated
bar. 1t is argued that compul-
sorry membership will be used
to impair freedom of express
sion. But that problem is not
presented by this record"
What more of a record does
the Supreme Court of the
United States require than a
workers own argument be-
fore the lower court that he
doesn't want to join a union
because he doesn't believe in
it, and that he doesn't want to
support it because he doesn't
choose to become a member?
AS for the statement that
membership in a private labor
union is analogous to member
ship in a bar association, this
is an astonishing argument.
For a lawyer is an officer of
the court itself and admission
to practice is subject to rules
of court. The court, actually
a part of the Government,
makes its own rules as to who
can practice before it. But no
bar association can compel a
nonmember to pay dues, nor
does it represent him in any
fixing of fees for his services.
The Supreme Court lately
has been sweeping aside the
rights of States to regulate
their own affairs and has even
held that a State cannot pun
ish sedition or arrest a man
suspected of treason.
Certainly, recent decisions
are not based on historic prec-
edents of law but on ephemeral
concepts of what are supposed
to be the dominant psyche

the age.

ThHd-Quorter Decline Believed Likely

The President, who had not

for G. o. P. candidates since
he himself was not on the bal

enough, and the Democrats
regained control of House and

That downturn hit bottom
about three weeks before cleo

it. Hence, predictions that the

The most important politi-

Any business downturn is
politically important, and even
more so. its timing. The tim

The third quarter of this
year will see election-year

There are the national con-

There is Congress in a home

Recent World Events Interpreted
AS Increasing Isolation of U.S..

Egypt's official national news
agency reported that an Egyp-
tian military mission would go
to Red China to shop for arms.
the day Egypt's recognition of
the Communist regime was
proclaimed.
Although China is not nor
mally considered a supplier of
arms 1t could be a transship-
ment point for other Com
munist bloc states-with the
advantage of not being sub
ject to any restrictions that
might be imposed by the
United Nations, Of which she
is not a member.
Most sensational of all, per-
haps, has been Israel's APP
proach, via a young Egyptian
Journalist, Ibrahim Izzat, to
Premier Nasser of Egypt, and
the message he conveyed from
the Israel government to the
Egyptian. Nothing else in his

sums of money. They were all
rich and poor-loyal to the
British rule, which gave them
peace and security.
In the six years since Brit
aims recognition of Peipinr
and its withdrawal of recogni-
ton from the Nationalist gov
eminent, the Peiping agents
have been at work so success
fully that today they have the
overwhelming majority of the
Singapore Chinese in their
pocket. The young generation
was influenced by the new
power developed by the Com
munists in their fatherland.
The older men, and particu-
larly those with big bank bal
ances, decided that the safest
course for their business was
to change allegiance and sup
ply ample cash to the Red
agents who arrived in the
island unhampered. The result
has been the present phony
move for Singapore's indie
pendence, created not by the
handful of natives but by the
Chinese settlers who are be-
ing worked over by Com
munist agents.
The British know only too
well that the day they are
forced out of the island-or
give unlimited self-govern-
ment to the islanders-Singa-
pore will become a strong
point of Communist China at
the gateway between the In
dian Ocean and the Pacific.
1t is not so much the loss of
the wealth of Singapore which
worries the British. They still
have definite obligations for
the defense of Australia and
New Zealand. Without the
Singapore base they could not
fulfill these obligations.
Surrender of Cyprus to the
nationalist minority and of
Singapore to an inevitable
Communist regime. the British
point out, would severely i'm
pair the NATO and SEATO
defenses. Hence the decision
that they will both be held,
regardless of cost.
