Federal ATOM POWER PLANTS Are
APPROVED BY Senate
WASHINGTON, D. C.-(NRECA)

WASHINGTON, d. C.-(NRECA)
The Senate late last week author
lied a $400-million spending program
for federal construction of approx
imately" four atomic power reactors
to be located at Atomic Energy Com
mission installations.
The bill, which squeezed through
the Senate by record vote of 1910
over Administration objections, was a
watered-down version of the original
calling for six reactors of different
types introduced by Sen. Albert Gore
(Tenn.).
Rural electric leaders and other
proponents of the measure have la
beled the bill essential to retain Unit
ed States leadership in the atomic
power race for development of the
new energy source. Opponents have
claimed the bill would retard efforts
of private utilities by soaring off
private capital.
Power produced by the reactors
will be for Acc use only, the bill
stipulates. In effects, the measure
will provide an atomic power yard
stick which rural electric leaders have
declared a must for future develop
ment. At the same time, the bill is
expected to provide relief for the
Tennessee Valley area where Acc

Negro Teachers Out of Luck
In School Districts on Coast

LOS ANGELES, Cal.-Complacent
northerners who think racial discrimi-
natory practices are limited to the
South could take look at Los An
geles county and have their COM
placency jolted.
DR.. c. c. Trillingham, county school
superintendent, said only three Los
Angeles county school districts out
of 80 serviced by his office hire negro
teachers.
Requests have been made by these
communities for 1874 elementary
school teachers, and yet there are
$50 qualified negro teachers begging
for jobs.
Trillingham further said that in the
10 chartered cities in the county,
which have their own educational set
ups, only Santa Monica, Pasadena,
Long Beach and Los Angeles hire
negro teachers.

PAUSE THAT iREFRESHES'
DEPRESSES

WASHINGTON, D. C.-NDNS)-
1t appears Treasury Secretary George
M, Humphrey has borrowed a slogan
from a well-known drink company to
describe the state of the national
economy. The nation is now in the
midst of an economic pause that re
freshes, he assured the congressional
subcommittee Of the Joint Economic
Committee.
The auto industry soon will be out
of the woods and "it is just as well to
hesitate a little" he purred.
Layoffs in the auto industry have
now reached 100000 he said, but Gin
a relatively short time" the indus
try's difficulties will be behind US.
Asked who he would blame if the
federal reserve systems new tight
money policy causes a business slump,
Humphrey said he has never passed
the buck in his life and doesn't in
tend to start now.
Does that mean he wouldn't try to
blame the Democrats? Rep. Wright
Patman (D-Texas) asked.
"If l found way, I'd be glad to"
Humphrey quipped.

Have You Registered?

The American Heritage Foundation
reports that 88@o of persons in man
agement positions of business voted in
the 1852 elections. 1t would be nice
if it could be reported that the same
proportion of union members also
went to the polls that year. But fig
ures show that only about half of
Americas trade unionists performed
their citizenship duties by casting
ballots.
That record must be beaten this
year. 1t can be-if working men and
women take little time to register
in order to be eligible to vote.
The registration job is one that
can be done now. 1t won't do any
good to go to the voting booth on

DAIRY FARMERS GET
50e AN HOUR

WASHINGTON, D. C.-(CNS)-
Dairy farmers and their families av-
eraged less than soc an hour for their
labor last year. USDA's agricultural
research service bases it's data on
Wisconsin and the Central Northeast.
In western Wisconsin, dairy farm
ers are doing about as well as they
were a year ago, but farmers in east
ern Wisconsin are making a lower
average hourly rate. This decline in
prices was largely reflection of the
drop in the price of hogs, the report
says.
In the Central Northeast, hourly
returns averaged slightly higher in
1855, aided by prices of chickens
Cup 1870 and eggs Cup 23%).
Across country, only cattle and
sheep ranchers Jared worse than dairy
farmers. Corn belt farmers were on
a par with dairy farmers. Cotton
farmers averaged Toe an hour; to-
bacco farmers, SIC; and winter wheat
farmers, $1.02.

Commenting on the Senate action,
Gore stated that "if enacted and Wig
orously administered, the bill will go
far toward establishing American
leadership in the development of nu-
clear power" This leadership, he
added, is important both at home and
abroad for reasons of economic pres
tigeoand political and propaganda rea-
sons in international affairs"
Forty-six Democrats and three Re-
publicans-Thomas H. Kuchel (R-

senators opposed it. Among Demo-
Gratis voting for the bill were Senators

Should Peacefully Vote
Capitalism Out

Editor, PEOPLES VOICE:
The CTS who We're asked to fight
and die in World War ii We're told that
they were fighting in great crusade,
a war to save the world from Fascism.
The then General Eisenhower told them
so in Europe and the same thing was
heard in the Pacific, where l was. But
less than two years after World War III
had bean nominally concluded, the u. ).
Navy Department, as quoted in the
Congressional Record of April 10, l941
said:
Enthusiastically, all wars have been
for economic reasons. To make them
politically and socially palatable,
theological issues have always been
invoked"
Capitalism has reached the stage
where it has to depend upon huge
multi-billion dollar war preparations
program just to keep going. Under this
system war is inevitable, and If we
don't get rid of capitalism soon-it
will get rid of us.
The people of this great country can
take their fate into their own hands by
adopting the Socialist Labor Party plat
form to uproot the cause of war by
organizing to peacefully vote capital
ism out and Socialism in. That is why l
am going to vote for Eric Hass and
Mrs. Georgia Cozzini, the presidential
nominees of the Socialist Labor Party.

Reader Comments On
State of the World
Dear Editor:


It's too bad we haven't more men like
you to fight for the peoples rights, and
fight off the smooth slickers, that
would steal the roll from a blind tumble
bug, then kick him because he didn't
have a larger roll.
The money that is being given to
these other countries, all over the
world, is not going to the poor people,
to cloth and feed them, but is going to
the rich, to build factories, dams, and
above all to build up the armies and
munition factories.
oh, we are peace loving. If anybody
talks peace, they are thrown in Jail.
No, you are not supposed to think peace.
WHY are we afraid of Russia? We
are not afraid of their armies, or navy,
but we are afraid of their socialist sys
tenn | do not pretend to know if it
is better or worse than our capitalist
system, but our capitalists do not want
it over here. The way we are fighting
it, it seems that they must have some
thing.
President has surrounded himself
with % bunch of capitalists, like Defense
Sec'y Wilson, who opens his mouth and
SAYS the working men are just yelping
dogs And his Sec'y. Benson. Let him
rob the farmers, let him grind them
into the dirt, perhaps that will wake
them up. The cattle raiser, when he
unloads his cattle, and gets his check
for them, couldn't go into the butcher
shop, and buy back one-fourth of one
of those steers he had just unloaded
for the price he got for the whole steer.
1t is the same with everything the
farmer raises to feed the people.-C. K.
