the Senate continue to seek legisla-
ton to curb, reduce, or equalize
the unparalleled power OF unions"
And Senator Mcclellan DARK
chairman Of the Senate Rackets
Committee. has urged enactment Of
antitrust legislation to deal with
labor racketeering in the transpor-
tation field
His staff was instructed to pre-
pare legislative recommendation
for consideration by the Senate
Judiciary Committee.
Senator Mcclellan and many Of
, his colleagues are apprehensive
about the vast power that would be
welded by James R. Hoffa. head Of
the Transfers union, if he should
succeed in merging all transporta-
ton workers-land, sea. and air
into one union.
This action could demoralize the
nation in peacetime. And it is in

is not true. All the countries have
labor unions and, am told, this
even applies to Russia. The fact
also is that the labor leaders who
operate these unions are intelligent
and reasonable. They are some
times government appointed. These
unions are subject to the same laws
and taxes to which the manage
ment associations are subject.
The main difference between the
European unions and those in the
Y. s. is that labor leaders and
union members in the U. S. appear
TO nave very little interest in either
their employers or the consumers
VINO are to use their products. In
Europe these labor leaders and
members are anxious for their en-
ployers to make fair profits and for
the consumers to enjoy their pro-
ducts. This difference is the main
reason why U. S. manufacturers
are buying SO many parts in Eur
ope to put into products to sell in
the y. s., and are even making the
entire products to sell in Europe
and various countries abroad.

manufacturers pay eighty cents to
one dollar per hour for skilled male
employees and from sixty cents to
seventy-five cents per hour for fe-
male employees, who apparently
can do the work just as well.
Executives who would secure an
nual salaries Of $25, 900 per year
in the U. S. receive only about
$1,000 here in Europe. They. more

NO COMMENT
BY JAMES W. poUTHAT

Washington, D. C.. Oct. 19-The
lengthy steel strike stimulated quite
bit of speculation in Washington
as to the type of additional legi-
Station needed to curb the mono
poly power Of labor unions.
High on the list were proposals
to place unions under the antitrust
laws and to outlaw strikes which af-
feet the public health and safety.
Prominently mentioned also were
proposals to abolish compulsory
unionism (the requirement that en-
ployes must join union in order
to work., to regulate political ac-
tivities of unions, to outlaw "feath-
erbedding," and to require a sec
ret strike ballot.
Unions are advocating legislation
providing for mandatory fact-find-
ing boards empowered to make
recommendations for It'll n g
strikes. These were employed ex-
tensively during the Truman Adj
ministration - and invariably re-
suited in recommendations favor
able to the unions.
Such recommendations -- bolster
ed by strong Administration sup
port directly precipitated the
sharply climbing inflationary wage
price spiral of future years. This
greatly deprecated the value Of the
/ dollar.
1t is generally recognized that the
\ 1859 labor reform legislation passed
by Congress despite its m n y
good qualities otherwise does moth
/ ing to curb the monopoly power Of
\ labor organizations.
And sentiment seems 10 be grow
ing-as a result OF the steel and
4 dock strikes-for some action to les
sen the paralyzing power that giant
unions have over essential indus
tries.
n Labor relations experts in Wash
ington realize that management
confronted with demands from a
giant union, is faced with t W {
choices.
l. At the risk of a costly strike
\ it can resist demands for higher
wages and fringe benefit payments
that are not justified BY cor
responding increases in productive
ty-demands which, if met, would
force price increases.
2 Or it can pay whatever is
demanded and stimulate more wage
price initiation to threaten the ma
tons fiscal stability
AT the present time--if the ma
tional health and safety is af
fected-- court injunction can be OBJ
tanned to send the union members
back to work for 80 days.
But, SO great is the power o.
giant unions, they are able to pre-
vent any possibility Of settlement
by refusing to yield in their de
mands-no matter how exorhitan
they may be.

Of additional legislation IS Senatol

fleeing moment.
Among the guests and acquaintance at

Of Florida others who found rest and COM
fort in relief Of the exacting duties Of a
days work still others wandering vaguely
in search of something which they never
will find. They had completed their careers,
reached an age past IS, and retired from

days and nights brought no rest, they were
victims of retirement, compulsory or vol
untary yet they found no rest.
Man was born to labor, to live with a
purpose. Under the present system Of en-
forced retirement at IS, the nation is losing
a great source of man power. 1t may be-
come one of Americas problems of the

against our State Department in
Washington. They claim that our
State Department is even rude to
them. telling them that if they can
not compete with Europe in manu-
featuring costs they had better 'sell
out and retire from business.
OF course. what our manufacturers
want is higher tariffs. Our State
Department tells our U. S. manu-
facturers that such higher tariffs
would eventually result in World
War III.
Large merchandisers such as
Sears. Roebuck and Co., are max
ing big profits importing finished
household products from all Europ-
can countries and also from Japan.
They want tariffs kept low. They
praise our State Department for
their present stand. Therefore, my
conclusion is that present tariff re-
laions will continue and will result
in much more unemployment in
the U. S. This, however, should
teach us all a good lesson - both
wageworkers and employers: it
may be blessing in disguise.

public has the opportunity of sharing in
the general activities of the county and
community Even though the people have
responded generously to the call Of indie
pendent schools, in many cases specifically.
the activities Of the community must 90 on.
In order to meet the goal, which has been
increased this year by inclusion of the an
nual Red Gross Roll Call, larger number
Of contributors are to be sought Even re-
latlvelv small gifts become large in the
aggregate when many people answer the
call. Solicitors will be calling this week.
They will have left their business or their
homes in order to sustain the community
service organizations supported annually
by the Fund. Each of these organizations
has been investigated by Fund committees
and found worthy of support We can do
no less than to receive them warmly and
pledge our support as best we are able

Hold To The Constitution

HOW many of you have read the Con-
IL stitution of the United States and the
Constitution of Virginia? This question was
asked Sunday afternoon as the Children OF
the American Revolution placed wreath
on the grave of Beverley Randolph. Revolu-
tionary Patriot.
1t was encouraging to see that most Of
the citizens attending the ceremony answer
ed with a shy and solemn raising of their
hands. AS Patriotic Education Week begins,
that is an excellent question for each Of us
to consider. Not only have YOU read these
Constitutions, but When did YOU last read
them?
Less than 200 years ago, people walking
over these very grounds were sick at heart,
serving under a King. who cared not two
pence for the people of Virginia, other than
the amount of revenue that their imports
brought to England
Under these adverse conditions it is not
surprising that many Of the people wanted
a change. The way they could institute
change was BY revolution. and that is ex-
acty what they resorted to. Would we to-
day be willing to make the personal Sacri-
fices our forebearers made to gain their
precious freedom from tyranny?
Would we thrill to the words of Patrick
Henry, or would we turn dea ear to the
hopes of self-government7
Patrick Henry was the 'Voice of the
Revolution His concluding paragraph in
the debate for revolution is we'll worth re-
memberng. He spoke from conviction and
determination. His words would be good
starting point at the beginning of Patriotic
Education Week. as he acclaimed:
Gentlemen may CRY Peace Peace. But
there is no Peace! The war is actually be-
gun. The next gale that sweeps from the
north will bring to our ears the clash of
resounding arms Our brethren are already
in the field. Is Life 50 dear or Peace so
sweet, as to be purchased at the price of
chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty
