Labor Bin Opposed

The CLIO executive council
added to the deepening smog OF
the labor reform picture last week
by announcing that it would
oppose final passage of the Ken
nedy-Ervin bill that has already
cleared the Senate. Union forces
will attempt to strip the measure
of the so-called bill of rights"
and other Objectionable features
in the House.
The power of organized labor
was tested when the Senate first
wrote into the reform legislation
the bill Of rights authored by
Chairman Mcclellan Of the
Rackets Committee. Pro-labor
forces lost the initial test by one
vote but rallied to substitute a
-watered-down version of the Nc
Clellan amendment.
1t is highly doubtful that a
tougher" bill could be forced
through the Senate. The ALL
CLIO opposition complexities the
task OF steering any labor bill ac-
ceptable to the upper chamber
through the House.
Thus any attempt to tougher
the bill as a reaction to anti
Teamster sentiment in Congress
could end in a legislative snarl
and no labor reform at all.
The failure of the Transfers
Union to clean its own house has
been one Of the most forceful ar
guments for putting more teeth
into labor reform legislation. The
disclosure last summer of Mr..
sHoffa's plan to weld transporta-
ton unions into national COM
bine with the Transfers at its
core brought a storm of protest
on Capitol Hill and forced a quick
! retrenchment by the tough-talk-
ing Transfers chief.

"A REPORT FROM THE IT, N.
Ironyin Soviet Move
On a Berlin Force

Berlin-not just West Berlin-be
patrolled by the proposed U. N.
force. If the West could be con-
f1dent that Moscow would reject
this idea, such a tactic would
get the West of the "sticky
wicket" and put Mr.. Gromyko
back on.
However. despite the Soviet
Foreign Minister'S about denun-
citation of the Western plan for
all-Berlin elections, it is by no
means certain, U. N. people say,
that he would reject an all-Berlin
peace force. Thus the West might
have to go through with the plan.
The real questions, as seen here,
are these:
What would be the function
of the force? Would it be nothing
more than a device to ease West
ern troops out Of Berlin with
minimum loss of face? Or would
it have enough authority and
power to give the Berliners genu-
inc protection?
What else would be done at
the same time the force was in
troduced? Would the city remain
divided? Would the Big Four's
ultimate legal responsibility for
the city also be shifted to the
U. NJ? If SO, what organ of the
y. N. would discharge that re-
'Sponsibility?
What would, happen to RIAS,
the American radio station whose
broadcasts help keep hope alive
in East Germany and which
therefore infuriates the Ulbricht-
Grotewohl regime? Would Ber-
Inns door remain open for East
German refugees?
What, if anything would be
done to protect West Berlin from
economic preSsureS and political
subversion-the. kind Of thing a
U. N. peace force would be least
qualified to combat?
Why the West Is Reluctant
Just to pose such questions is
to indicate why the West has been
less than enthusiastic about the
plan, and why Mr.. Hammarskjold
doubts its practicality.
Some Of these problems no
doubt are soluble. 1t would be
possible. for example, if it were
thought necessary, for the great
powers to undertake an obligation
to fight if the force were attacked
thus making it kind of trip
wire. from the Western point of
view. just as the Western garrison

The argument over whether Mr..
Hoffa was misquoted in his
Brownsville speech seemed some
what academic in view Of similar
remarks attributed to him-and
to which he took no objection-in
a current series on the Teamsters
In Life Magazine.
! He is quoted as telling q Life
reporter on the subject of future
Transfers strategy:
I'VE may eventually have to do
what labor unions do in Europe
and call general strikes.
I'VE are organizing in all trans
portation fields. We are trying to
create a conference of Transporter
ton unions. So we are now in a
position to control the strike is

IF Congress is stupid enough to
pass bill banning secondary boy

tracts expire on the same day."

yet begun in earnest. To many
diplomats and reporters in at
tendance at the conference. the
Soviet Union was not yet ready
to relinquish an excellent propa-
ganda rostrum. Mr.. Gromyko'S eff
forts to secure for the German
Democratic Republic a great meas
ure of worldwide acceptance as
a major factor at the Geneva con-
ference seemed to be .rewarding,
and it has been apparent from the
very opening day that this was
one of Moscow's major prelimi-
nary goals.

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y
United Nations diplomats pricked
up their ears last week when So
Wet Foreign Minister Gromyko
proposed that U. N. peace force
made up of neutral nations re-
place the Western garrisons in
Berlin.
Mr.. Gromyko's boss, Nikita S.
Khrushchev, has said previously
that the United Nations might
have a role in guaranteeing the
safety Of a 'free city" of West
Berlin, but he had not made clear
Just what role he envisaged.
If the Kremlin really is think
ing in terms of a UNEF- like force
with SwedeS, Indians, Burmese.
Brazilians and Egyptians, for ex-
ample. patrolling the Inter den
Linden, U. N. people are interested,
to put it mildly.
Key Western diplomats have
been cool to this idea since it
was first advanced privately in the
course of pre-Geneva planning.
Secretary General Dag Ham,
marskjold has said he thinks it
impractical, and he repeated the
view with emphasis Thursday.
Thus the world has the curious
spectacle of Russia-which for
years has been the monkey wrench
in U. N. machinery-proposing
: that tie world organization under
take lpore than the West is ready
to have it do, and more than its
secretary general thinks practical.
To add to the irony. Russia has
bitterly opposed the U. MS exist
ing peace force in Egypt, calling it
. illegal and refusing to contribute
! a ruble to its maintenance. 1t will
be interesting to see how Moscow's
lawyers justify a contention that
a UNEF in Berlin is legal, while
q UNEF in Egypt is illegal.
A Possible embarrassment
Nonetheless, if Mr.. Gromyko
presses the idea, a Western policy
Of opposition may quickly become
difficult, if not untenable.
Whatever Russia's past per-
Torrance, the world is likely to
judge the present proposal on
its merits. The West would suffer
considerable propaganda embar-
rassment if it let itself be ma
neuvered into opposing the idea
1rontally.
One way of shifting back to
Russia the task Of saying no"
might be to propose that all Of

ambassadors" to the test ban con-
ference decided to postpone their
efforts to effect agreement. They
win await the reconvening of the
test ban sessions on June 8, when
they will renew their attempts to
persuade the Soviet side to take
a new look at the problems Of
testing in space and underground.
Hopes of achieving an agree
ment on a test ban this year, how
ever, have not been abandoned.
Optimism is based on the belief
that basis for an accord has
already been laid and that all the
members of the atomic club"
really seek an end to tests. In
Moscow, / Mr.. Khrushchev on
Wednesday repeated his hopes
that a ban could be worked out
this year.

Good Living In
The Good Olde Days

I'm this day of plastics and A
Bombs we are apt to forget how
pleasantly our ancestors lived" re-
marked Mrs. Clyde Johnson, Chair
man of the Art and Antique Ex-
hfbit here for the Olde Princess
Anne Days celebration on October
10th and 18th. "Of course" she con-
tinued, 1--WE could not expect the
hand-spun and hand-woven fabrics
we will have on display, to rival
modern machined nylon, but to me
and many others they are the most
beautiful and remarkable of our
heritage from our distaff ancest-
ors"
Mrs. Johnson went on to talk
about the real Olde days when
great grandmother was cooking
over the big open fire in the kit
chen and wearing a "slat-bonnet"
to protect her complexion from the
heat. Mrs. Johnson and her CO.
workers were trying to find an au-
thentic slat-bOnnet for the exhibit.
Many others curious antiques are
being assembled including some
very fine pewter and silver and
dog-eared account books of long
ago. Perhaps the most curious is a
poison cup" made of glass to
which in the Olde days was attribu-
ted mystical powers.
The Art Exhibit centers around
the large canvass of the Teackle
Mansion by Bob Jones, Princess
Anne's "old master" and includes
some very fine work in oils and
water colors and cartography by
such well and widely known local
craftsmen as John Bond, Betty Will
kinson, Doris Cohn and w. Ballard
Miles.

Praises Cooperation
continued from page one)

The Postmaster also emphasiZ-
ed the need for your special CO.
operation in making sure that your
return address and the recipients s
address are plainly written on all
Christmas card envelopes and
package labels. Be sure to use
zone numbers, and it's always a
good idea to include an extra label
inside your packages carrying your
name and address and that of the
recipient
Because Parcel Post size and
weight limitations vary according
to destination, be sure to ask
about them when you go to the
Post Office to buy stamps.
Speaking of stamps, the Post
master pointed out that if you al
ways use four cent First Glass
postage on your Christmas cards
they will be delivered promptly and
forwarded or returned, if neces-
sary, providing you include your
name and address on the Christ
mas card envelopes.
When you call at the Post Off
ice be sure to ask for free labels
which read, "ALL FOR OUT OF
TOWN DELIVERY" and 'sALL FOR
LOCAL DELIVERY. Place these
labels on bundles of Christmas
cards for local addresses and those
will help, too, if you will mail
your out-of-town Christmas cards
several days in advance of those
intended for delivery to nearby
points.
Postmaster Pearce said, "I'll es-
pecially appreciate the cooperation
of all business firms to postpone
the mailing of circulars and cata-
logs until after December 25th
TO keep the mails clear for the
Christmas rush.
Tie Postmaster especially urges
you to get your out-of-state pack
ages into the Post Office within
the next few days and to do every
thing possible to mail all of your
Christmas gifts for local delivery
by December 10th and your Christ
mas cards to nearby points by al
least week before Christmas.
