To Push Sleeper" Bills
Work Baekers
Switch Tactics
To Help COP

| LOS ANGELES A belligerent
but not optimistic group of supporters
of so-called "right-to-work'' met here
to null over their trouncing in the
1858 elections and decided on q
switch in tactics aimed at letting Re-
publican candidates off the hook.
Reed Larson, executive vice presi-
dent of the National "Right-to- Work.
Committee, which sponsored the
meeting, indicated his group will lay
low during the 1860 presidential elec-
tions and concentrate on trying to
push Sleeper" bills through the state
legislatures.
"The Republicans can breathe easy
now," Larson said.
This was an obvious reference to
the bitter fight in California in the
1858 election, which saw former COP
Sen. William F. Knowland and the
"right-to-work" initiative he sup
ported go down in defeat by upwards
of a million votes.
Some Republicans opposed the
measure, such as former COP Gov.
Goodwin Knight, whom Knowland
pushed out of the race for governor
only to lose to Democratic Gov. Ed
mund G. (Pat) Brown, a bitter foe
of fright t-to-work".
Robert Tevlin, executive secretary
of the Citizens Committee for Volun-
tary Unionism, the California branch
of the national group, said all at
tempts to put "right-to-work" meas
ure on the ballot have been dropped,
and 1--WE are now going to work
county-by-county to elect legislators
who will vote for the bill in the state
Rep. Edgar Hiestand (R-Calif.)
told the "right-to-work" meeting he
favors a national law prohibiting the
union shop, but Larson said his group
is pressing for it on a state, level.
Larson said that advocates of the
measure are now active in only three
states: California, Washington and
Vermont, and that it will not be
pushed on the ballot in 1860 because
there hasn't been enough basic edu-
cational work done yet"

In another statement, Kintner
made it clear that the problem of
false advertising is 'just as serious
in other media newspapers and
magazines) as in broadcasting."

down on all types of smaller scale
business frauds which were described
as prevalent in many cities. These in
cluded widespread short-weghting of
meats by many butchers, in league
with dishonest city inspectors who got
payoffs, and almost equally wide
spread short-measuring and aduIera-
tion of gasoline by filling stations.
Municipal officials cracked down with
writs and arrests against many of the

MONTANA FARMERS HELP POINT WAY
TO BETTER WORLD UNDERSTANDING

If we thought London traffic ex-
citing or the night over the Atlantic
unbelievably short, both were merely
hints of greater surprises to come.
Flying into the East does surpris-
ing things to both days and nights.
We had no more than finished eating
a liesurely lunch Immediately after
taking off from London, then we
were landing on the field at Prague
just as darkness fell. Prague airport
wasn't in the least as I expected.
There were almost no lights on the
field or outside the buildings. Inside
the lights were dim and one wall was
made of corrugated paper. The few
people inside came and went, speak
ing scarcely word. Outside a small
crowd huddled against the fence in
complete silence, apparently waiting
for another plane. We had to push
our way through as they seemed
neither to see nor heed us when we
said "excuse me".
We skipped from Prague to Rome
to Cairo like pebble skipping water,
stepping out briefly into the bright
modern airports at the latter two. At
dawn we were winging over the end
less sands of Arabia and then sud-
denly over the Arabian Sea. We fin
ished breakfast in time to eat a
delicious Indian style lunch which
we had to eat hurriedly in order to
be ready to land in Bombay, where
it was already 500. When we reached
New Delhi at 500 good-sized well
coming committee met us with color
full, fragrant leis and bouquets. We've
never before met a more friendly
people nor made so many new friends
so fast.

This trip has been little some
thing extra at every turn, like add
ing sugar to honey. We left the U. S.
on TWAS inaugural transatlantic jet
flight. making the trip from New
York to London in six hours and eight
minutes. 1t was one big party all the
way with the passengers being served
every conceivable type of delicacy
in the way of eats and drinks en-
route. The stewardess seemed little
puzzled at the big preference for
7-Up when they served the drinks
in the section of the plane where the
Farmers and World Affairs group
was sitting.
We landed in London at 200 EST
but suddenly learned it was 700 am.
London time and the Indian Airlines
had arranged for us to have any
breakfast we chose as their guests.
They checked our baggage through to
Bombay and told us not to worry
about the excess weight.
We had several hours in which to
tour London. The cab drivers were
very friendly and loved telling us
the history of all the buildings. The
traffic was unexpectedly exciting.
We saw large beautiful Clyde horse
pulling four wheeled wagon; men
pulling two wheeled produce carts
containing fruit, flowers, or soft
drinks; and a man riding a bicycle
through the thickest
traffic with a ten-foot ladder on his

3-Heads of some firms frankly
admitted they engaged in wholesale
"payola''. An official of one distrib-
uting company named in the FTC

the NEW YORK TIMES: "Sure we
paid disc jockeys. We met competi-
tion. Every company was involved" "
A particularly dramatic account of
this practice was carried in the NEW
YORK POST. 1t ran an extensive
interview with "major Independent
record manufacturer" whose name
BABES AND BOOZE
was withheld. The manufacturer ad-
mitted he paid out many thousands
of dollars in "payola" bribes every
year. .4
He said he had complained to
the FEC about the situation as far
back as 1948, but the commission
did nothing.
This distributor was quoted also as
saying that some record companies

babes and booze, besides money to
disc jockeys who pushed their records.
He said one concern maintains an
apartment in New York furnished
with wine and women" for disc jock
eys, and another has .'flown down
girls from Chicago" as playmates for
southern Jockeys at several Miami
hotels.
FEC HOLDS HEARINGS
4-The FEC opened public hear
ings on the evils in broadcasting,
seeking to determine what should be
done. Leadoff witnesses were spokes-
men for Protestant, Catholic and Jew
ish churches, who all described the
radio-TV scandals as symptoms of
moral decay and who suggested
remedies.
Meantime. the TV board of direc-
tors of the National Association of |
Broadcasters announced adoption of |
4 code to discourage some of the !
abuses exposed, including payola and
'igged TV shows-though some OBJ
servers pictured this action as clock
ng the barn door after the horse has
,een stolen".
Also, Senator Warren G. Magnuson
chairman of the Senate
interstate Commerce Committee, re-
terated plans to call a meeting in
January of broadcasting industry ex-
,cutives and officials of federal regu-
atory agencies to review whatever

1-BUSINESS WEEK magazine
reported that it quizzed numerous top
executives for their views on the ex-
tent to which the "pay-off morality
prevailed in business. The magazine
said most of industry's arrangements
claimed 'their own corporate moral
fty has never been better, but it
added, significantly, that "when you
probe little deeper among business
men, it becomes an open question
whether all this sanctimoniousness is
justified.
For example. a manufacturer of
missile components in the southwest
told the business magazines reporter: /:
"Our employees are fine; there's

er continued, "that government engi-
neers who deal with us on missile con-
tracts expect more and more luxury

all this off as a business expense on

Our competitors are doing it and we
have to do it too. don't know what's
ethical and what's unethical any

Said a Midwest manufacturer:
Business practices are less scrupu-
lous and more corrupt than / can
ever remember. They've gradually
gotten worse ever since 1945."
Said Texas oil tool manufacturer:
"Our competition buys about 75 per
cent of their business by giving away
a months supply of frozen beef
steaks to purchasing agents"
TWO COMMISSIONS ACT
Both the Federal Communica-
tions Commission and the Federal |
Trade Commission finally acted in
the field of "payola" bribery, after
doing little or nothing until the tester
ing mess broke into the open as re-
suit of a House inquiry.
The FEC ordered all of the nations
5,236 radio and TV stations to SUBJ
nit sworn statements by Jan. A on
whether any of their employees or in
dependent producers have accepted
secret "payola" for plugging any
product or person over the air.
The FTC issued complaint against
three record manufacturers and six
record distributors, ac-
cusing them of deceiving the public
and illegally restricting competition
by giving "payoffs" to radio and tele-
,ision disk jockeys who pushed their
'ecords over the airwaN IS.

Record manufacturers named in
