Republicans in Arizona are
becoming more predictable; we
can just about tell beforehand
what they will do-what kind
of speaker they will bring to
the state, how they will raise
the Incidental" Party funds,
and the amount and kind of
publicity they will have from
one campaign to the next.
They have just had their
$50O0-a-plate dinner which was
announced to have been sold out
early. If there were any poor
but important Republicans, they

"the greedy, power-hungry labor
bosses," and groaned for the

Judgment" Evidently the world
of big Republicans is so far
removed from the world of the
American workers, that he be-
lieves this tripe. Thanks to orr
ganized labor, the American
worker is as independent as a
hog on ice", and will be as long
as he keeps labor-baiters out OF
political office.

deserted Eisenhower, would like

Juvenile Court Procedures
Must Be Improved

the veil of secrecy which has
covered up the proceedings OF
the Juvenile Court until now.
Proceedings of the Juvenile
Court may be informal, but this
does not mean that a parents
substantial rights are to be
taken away from him. In the
Short Creek case, the Supreme
Court condemned the Juvenile
Court for not permitting parents
to be represented by an attor-
ney. The Juvenile Judge certain
ly has not forgotten the Short
Creek trial. And the Supreme
Court would likewise condemn
the practice of such secret wit
neSSeS.
T have prepared a brief report
of what happened in this case
I have been shocked and amaz-
ed by all these things a long
list of practices and procedures
which violate every spirit OF
American law which guarantees
that both sides should be heard
before a decision is made.
But to whom should this re-
port be submitted? Who will see
to it that this father has his
day in court that these prac-
tices should be improved for the
future?.... Superior Judges, law
yers, government officials, civic
organizations?
"Tfse public has the right to
know" says this mornings edi-
torial of the Arizona Republic.
WHY not also publish the con-
tents of this report for the in
formation of the public. 1t may
well be that publicity is the very
thing which will make even the
Juvenile Judge obey the law.

When rank injustice is dealt
out in the Juvenile Court for
Maricopa County, must a poor
parent go the expense of an
appeal to the Supreme Court in
order to have his day in court
Is there no other way to make
even the Juvenile Judge obey the
law?
This mornings editorial in the
Arizona Republic cries out with
all of us for justice for Amer
lean boys in foreign lands but
what about our constitutional
rights right here at home?

where Cd the Juvenile Judge
heard secret witneseas which
the father could not hear nor

secret testimony is abhorrent to
American law. it is an out

procedure which should not be
tolerated) -. and where (2) the
Juvenile Judge did not even hear
any of the many witnesses in
behalf of the father testimony
which would have been given by
fine, splendid, mature people
who have known this family for
many years.
In other words, the father did
not have his day in court. How
can the judiciary, or the legal
profession, or the public in gen.
eral permit the Juvenile Judge
to get away with a thing like
this?
One wonders how many more
parents were deprived of their

Vice President Government Re-
lations Division thinks might be
of general interest.
WASHINGTON Labor union
politicians, both in and out OF
Congress, are maneuvering to
protect unions from legislation
with real teeth in it to cure
abuses publicized by the Senate
rackets committee.
Many bills pending in both
Senate and House are designed
to reach basic causes of union
monopoly and corruption. Bills
which, some members of Con-
gress say, would quickly solve
basic problems, include: Cd
making unions subject to mo-
nopoly provisions Of antitrust
laws; (2) permitting states to
enact labor laws unless Congress
pre-empts the field; CD abolish
ing compulsory unioniSm.
WELFARE FUND LEGISLA-
TION - Instead of moving in
this direction, the Senate Labor
Committee is now considering
welfare and pension fund legis-
lation declared by students OF
the subject to be wholly made
quate to protect union members.
The Douglas bill before the
committee was originally pro-
posed to require publicity and
federal supervision for union
dominated pension and welfare
funds. But it was altered to
bring in employer funds, which
had not been involved in racket
eering charges.
Thus, it is argued, a plan to
cure some abuses in unions is
now changed to greatly expand
federal power over business.
Representatives Of business
have pointed out to the COM
mittee that some states have
far-reaching laws against fraud
and abuse of welfare, pension
and trust fundS-and a model
state law is being urged on all.
WHERE CONGRESS FAILED
One reason for the proposal
for federal legislation is that
the Taft-Hartley law required
unions to file financial reports
with the Department OF LABOR,
but did not require publicity,
nor did it impose a duty on the
Secretary of Labor to investi-
gate truth or falsity. This, at
least, is the Labor Departments
Interpretation of the law. Some
Congressman dispute it.
Secretary of Labor Mitchell
now is asking a law which would
require publicity, give the de-
partment sweeping powers to
investigate, and provide stiff
penalties for making false re-
ports.
HOUSE COMMITTEE PLANS

of Dave Beck does not offer the
protection needed by rank-and-

LETTERS TO THE
EDITOR

Miami, Florida
March Is, 1857
The Editor, The Miami Times:
Please allow me to make a few
observations in connection with
the passing of Villa Anne Brown,
the 12-year-old daughter OF the
Rev. DR.. and Mrs. H. w. Brown OF
Nassau, Bahamas.
She was a fine Christian girl
who has left behind one of the
most beautiful testimonies in my
memory. Here are her last words
that she uttered before she died
at / am. Saturday, March 10:
Daddy, Jesus is coming now.
Lord, have mercy on me. My
breath is leaving me. Goodbye
daddy and NOM; goodbye aunty,
Jesus is here" And with a stroke
of the shoulder she was gone. She
died in the arms of her father re-
peating these words.
In the years ahead, If God so
wills it, when Pastor Brown feels
weak along pilgrimage, may he
always feel that over there in
glory, Villa is cheering him on.
Keep on daddy! Never give up!
A crown of eternal glory awaits
you.
