Meany issued the following

"Pres. Eisenhower's pocket veto
of the Douglas-Payne bill to aid
chemically depressed areas can
only be deplored. The measure was
sound and sensible and, while not
the complete answer, it would have
materially aided these areas which
can rightly be called America

"These people deserve more than
political promises. They deserve

James P. Mitchell. Mitchell was
said to have made the appeal at a
lengthy conference at the White
House, to which the President had
returned briefly from his Newport,
R. l., vacation retreat to attend a
reception for $50 educational ex-
ecutives and to issue the depressed
areas veto statement.
The AFL-CIO Executive Coun-
ell, meeting last month at Unity
House, Pa, sent an urgent wire
to Eisenhower calling for approval
of the bill and reminding him that
both he and the COP had given
solemn pladges "to eradicate the
spreading cancer of chronic area
distress"
Sen. Paul H. Douglas (D-Ill.)

shocked" by the veto, describing
it as another example of the Pres
ident and the Republican Admin
istration promising one thing but
doing another"

Hailing Israel as "a permanent
reality for our generation and
those that follow" Potofsky, who
is president Of the Amalgamated
Clothing Workers, added:
American workers want to see
peace in the Middle East but they
do not want to see a peace in
which the Nasser imperialists build
an exploiting dominance over other
Arab peoples. And equally, Ameri-
can workers will tolerate no ag-
gression, direct or indirect, by any
force on the people and the state of
Israeli"
He said the time is "long over
due" for peace between Israel and
the surrounding Arab states and
predicted future day when
Israel and it's neighbors will work
and plan together to improve the
lot of the common people in this
great region

George M. harrison said in an ad-
dress dedicating the new William

eve do not believe that imperial

sibly produce the sort of world we
want for our children and grand

"But in the case of the new state
of Israel, we had no doubt as to
the course of it's future decelop-
ment - because we knew that in
Histadrut, a strong and democrat
ically minded labor organization,
the new state had a built-in foun-
dation that would tend to keep this
young republic oriented towards
the rest of the democratic world.
Events in the last ten years, and
in the six years since William
Green's death, have more than
borne out our faith in your prog

AFL-CIO Undertakings
Recounting the success of the
AFL-CIO merger in the United
States, Harrison said that both the
center at Haifa, erected by the
William Green Memorial Fund
originally created by the former
AFL, and the Philip Murray Me-
mortal Center at Elath, dedicated
in 1853 as the result of a similar
fund set up by the former CLIO,
clearly "now both stands as ALL
Clio undertakings"

AFL-CIO at the Haifa dedication,
two days later delivered the major
address at special ceremonies at

With the exception of the 1856
peak, last years total was still
higher than any other year since
records were started in 1912.
Shipments have not fallen below

Decreases occurred in all the

county was a close second with
80 per cent of the total. Flat
head, Lincoln and Missoula coun-

In many areas, the severe
damage resulting from the spruce

for the decline in shipments, ac-
