OUR HUMAN
RELATIONS
by Lou Lcrman
Minnesota Labor Committee for
Human Rights


Human Rights
Ninety per cent OF Israers wage
earners belong to trade unions af-
fniated with Histadrut Usraeli
Federation Of Labor. This in
cmdes the 200 900 Arabs in Israel.
The minimum daily wage OF an
Arab or Israeli worker building
highways is 10 Israeli pounds or
$3.50. This is 10 to 20 times the
daily wage Of similar workers In
Arab countries.
There Is a labor movement in
Egypt, However, Histadrut, the
AFL~CIO counterpart in Israel is
a free democratic union which
plays a major part in the govern
ment Of that country.
In Egypt, the labor movement
il controlled by and responsible
10 the Army. The right of
workers 10 strike for better
working conditions and better
pay has been prohibited for
more than five years.
Israel Is hated because she Is
the symbol Of the West, with her
regard for human rights, her in
sistance upon the free ballot, and
the rights Of labor. Israel con-
stitutes a cultural and economic
time-bomb, whose very existence
can cause an explosion throughout
the Middle East and whose ex-
ample can stimulate the Arab
masses to bring down the regime
Of privilege Of the favored few
in the feudal lands Of Araby.
At the public meeting of the
Catholic Interracial Council in st.
Louis, Archbishop Joseph f.
Ritter praised a group Of subur-
ban Crcve Occur residents for
welcoming a Negro surgeon and
his family into their community.
While the doctors expensive home
was being built, Creve Occur
authorities suddenly filed a suit
TO condemn his property and turn
il into a park. Calling this action
"a subterfuEe" some local resi-
dents urged that the suit be with
drawn, as the needs for the park
could be met without depHWng

right and privilege TO live in our

NEGROES THREATEN
REDSKINS BOYCOTT

NEW YORK, Jan.-The Red
Rooster Sports Committee, an
organization of Negro sports fans

tablish a picket line at the Ma
tional Football League draft
meeting at Philadelphia on Jan.

Washington Redskins to seek
Negro players.

terest of his securing qualified
players for the Redskins, regard
less of color. Tim Mara is not
listed as an official of the Giants

players on the Redskins, even
to the extent of a boycott.
The letter said: 1--WE would
like to point out that unless Mr..
Marshall has a change of heart
before January 31s1, you and
other owners will be embarraS-
sed by having to cross a picket
line to get to the NFL draft at

Sorry Folks, but I am in a bit
of a hurry this week! Running
little late, so will make it
short with a few witty sayings.
Did you know?
The prizefight ring is no place
for a slow poke.
The more style there is to a
girls bathing suit, the less there
is of it.
Moths aren't really fighting
when they make the fur fly.
A dog will stay with a man
when he hasn't cent and so
will a bill collector.
The reason some men are a
success in their business is be-
cause they hate to go home to
their wives.
Thought of the Week
The dictionary is the only
place where success comes be-
fore work.

SON SUES TO HALT SUPPORT
FOR FATHER

LOS ANGELES, Calf. = Re
lease from the legal obligation
for the support of his father
is demanded in a suit filed in
Superior Court by Charles R.
Settle, 35, Los Angeles business
man.
Settle directed the complaint
against his father, Charles M.
Settle, 70, with the assertion
that the father deserted him,
his brother, William, now 33,
and their mother, Mrs. Victoria
v. Settle, in 1882 and never con-
tributed toward their support
since.
The suing son charged that
his father had the means to
support his family but instead
devoted his assets toward the
support of another woman. The
son explained that he needs a
court decree because San Diego
County authorities served him
with demands for contribution
toward his fathers mainten-
ance.

YOU'RE A GOVERNMENT WORKER

Taxpayers Dollar, a publica-
ton of the Chamber of Com
merce of the United States,
passes on this definition of a
taxpayer ia persons who
doesn't have to pass a Civil Serv-
ice test to work for the govern
ment."
That's more than a good gag.
A man with two dependents
who earns $50 a week must
work 40 weeks to meet his tax
bill. If he has no dependents,
he has to work 8.2 weeks. And,
of course, the tax rates rise
with almost bullet-like rapidity
as incomes rise-a n d tn e
amount of time a man has to
work for the government rises,
with them.
So, in this fashion, we're all
government workers. And we
have to- do a great deal more
work on behalf of government
than most of us realize.
