CHALLENGING TIMES FOR
THE CAROLINA COASTLANI
hx. VICTOR MEEkiNS

It seems there has never been
a more challenging year for the
Carolina coastland than this year
of Our Lord 1860. There has not
been in a long time, a finer oppor-
tunity for our people to do things.
There has never been so great a
variety of events which may
be celebrated and enjoyed and
ut the same time by which
we can make capital. Out of all
the observances and celebrations
and the enjoyment, at the end of
the year when the chaff has blown
away, We should come up with a
wealth of solid grain to sustain
us through another rough winter.
History is a most valuable bit
of capital but like all other capital,
if we don't put it out on interest,
it will yield us no profit. We have
more of it than any other area
of Like size in this country, but
we don't do a half job of putting
it 30 work and making it pay off.
Like all other capital assets, his
tory requires management; it re-
quires effort; it requires wise fore
sight, intelligent planning and in
tense effort to shape it up into
something delightful and attractive
to all the people. Let us seriously
consider what we have, and put our
heads together in a greater effort
this year TO help our history heap
high a treasure house of memory
Of an eventful year, our heads
raised higher in hope and encour-
agement, our spirits re-dedicated to
unbounded zeal in pursuance Of
great goals in years to come.
There comes time when
AN editors efforts go astray. Con-
trary to insistence of some people,
rewspapermen always strive for
accuracy. Anyone worth his salt
wants his words, as well as his
works correctly in print, for there
it remains indisputable and no one
can wipe out a word of it. Last
week, was our most unhappy ex-
perience in a long career, when two
newspaper stories were hopelessly
mixed up and garbled, so that the
intent and purpose of both were
lost in these columns. This week
we are running them over that our
readers may see how they were

It is with feeling of great re-
lief that trip to New York and
Washington planned for some
months is now being taken. Delay
after delay has resulted from vari-
Gus causes, mostly weather. 1t is
hoped that of the numerous people
who may be seen, something can
be evolved of benefit to our coast
land. If success attends, and my
heart is lifted, I can return feel
ing redeemed and restored after so
futile a thing as the two garbled
stories referred to.
l have not yet got worked up
over the Governors race, partly be-
cause of having so much else to
do, and one can't let himself get
excited about everything. In fact
do not think the Governors race

two other campaigns. The policies
of the next Governor will be of
sequence to all North Carolina, but
the coastland has its own peculiar
problems which are not in COM
mon with the rest of the state.
am interested in seeing that these
problems are faced by men who
know and understand them, by men
who like us and who have sympathy
for our needs, and who know out
of their official experience how
to best help us solve them. 1t is
important therefore, it seems to
me, to this Coastland, that we keep
in office our longtime friend and
servant, Congressman Herbert C.
Bonner, and our loyal friend of
more recent years, our able and
devoted servant Senator Everett
Jordan. We people of the Coast
land, who don't have too much in
fluence anyway, can get more out
of what little we have by sticking
with those who have been loyal
and helpful to us. We are not go
ing to get anything by running off
behind every fellow who merely
wants a job. Who are these new
Corners working for anyway, when
they would have us ditch and desert
those who have served us we'll?
Why, they are thinking first of
their own glory; they are not con-
cened with our welfare. When one
thinks of supporting a candidate
who always has fought the
things we need most, it is to shud-
der. In fact it's somewhat of a
slam on our intelligence to tell US
to go vote for a man who last year
threw cold water on our attempts
to better ourselves and acquire long
delayed benefits due US years ago.

On Jan. 8, 1947, shortly before Richard M.
Nixon was sworn in to his first term in the
u. S. House of Representatives Washington
reporter asked:
"Do you have any bill you plan to introduce
or any pet project you intend to push for?"
''No, nothing in PARTICULAR Nixon replied
81 was elected to smash the labor bosses and
my one principle is to accept no dictation from
the CIO-PAC."
Today, 13 years later, Richard Nixon no
longer talks about 'labor bosses.' He refers
to ''the honest and sincere men who constitute
the great majority of union officers" In the
Nixon vocabulary of 1860, the U. S. labor
movement is not source of "dictation'' but
"a force for good in our society,"
Which is the real Nixon? The eager young
man who gave an off-the-cuff reply to a re-
porter's question in a Congressional cloak
room in 1947? Or the Presidential candidate
who weighs every word for its possible effect
on the outcome in the the 1860 election?
In an effort to find an answer to that ques-
ton, THE MACHINIST has carefully analysed
not only Nixons words, but his voting record
during the past 13 years.
Here's how Nixon voted on major domestic
issues affecting working families since he
entered Congress in 1947:

1953-1959

AS Vice President of the United States
Nixon presides over the Senate. He may not
vote except in c.lse of ties. Since 1858, Nixon
has cast tie-breaking votes six occasions:
Small Business-On June 10, 1853, Nixon
twice broke tie votes in favor of an economic
controls bill that was unfavorable to small
business.
Farm Supports-On March g. 1866, Nixon
cast the deciding vote to kill 80 per cent price
supports for millable wheat
Wage Standards-On May 20, 1856, Nixon
voted to let states rather than the u. S. Sec
rotary of Labor set wages for federal high
way construction projects.
Interest Rates-On March IL, 1858, Nixon's
tie-breaking vote increased the interest rate
on Veteran Administrations CT housing loans
from AZ to 4A%.
Labor Control-On April %, 1869, Nixon's
vote made the MANS misnamed "bill of
rights part of the Labor Control Bill.
On number of other occasions, Nixon's
failure to break ties influenced legislation.
For example, on May %, 1858, proposal to
increase assistance for the needy aged and
blind was killed when Nixon failed to break
1910 tie.

after the Kennedy Landrum- Griffin Act be-
came law.

Injunctions When the steel companies
fused to accept a decision of the Wage Stabi-
lization Board, the United Steelworkers struck.
Nixon voted for resolution calling on Presi-
dent Truman to seek Taft-Hartley injunc-
ton against the Steelworkers.
Housing-On June 20 1851, the Senate re-
jected (25-47) an amendment to reduce pub
lie housing units from $4,000 to 5000 year.
Nixon voted for this slash.
year later, on June 8, 1852, the Senate
voted (37-31) to bring the number of public
housing units back to $4,000 year. Nixon
voted against this increase.
Education-A bill to provide emergency
funds for school construction in defense areas
failed (35-41) to pass the Senate May 10,
1851. Nixon voted with Senate liberals in
support of this bill.
The acute shortage of doctors in the y. S.
led to consideration of legislation to provide
federal scholarships for medical students and
financial assistance to medical schools. The
bill failed to pass the Senate (23-42). Nixon
voted against it.

dents veto.
year later, Oct 5, 1919, bill to improve
pensions and other Social Security benefits
was before the House. Nixon supported an
effort to side-track this bill in favor of
much weaker substitute. The Gripping sub
stitute lost 1922.
On Aug 16, 1850, the House voted 1876
for the Knowland Amendment to the Social
Security Act Among other things, this meas
ure made it possible for states to reduce un-
employment benefits to workers who refused
to take jobs as scabs Nixon voted for the

Kennedy as Congressman
1947-1952

ft-Hartley-Kennedy's services in the
House of Representa-, es began in 1947, the
year Taft-Hartley became law AS a member
of the House Education and Labor Commit
tee, the freshman Congressman from Massa-
chusetts opposed the Hartley Bill both in COM
mittee and on the floor of the House.
The Hartley Bill Kennedy warned the
House, will $50 strangle collective bargaining
with restraints and limitations as to make it
ineffectual.'' Kennedy expressed particular
concern over the Hartley Bills prohibition
against collective bargaining ON the union
shop. But, his amendment to permit such bar
gaining was voted down.
In the weeks that followed, Kennedy voted
against House passage of the Hartley Bill,
against adoption of the final Taft-Hartley Bill
and against overriding President Truman's
Veto Kennedy was ON labor's side-the losing
side-on all three votes
Two years later, Kennedy's vote helped
kill the Wood Bill measure even more anti
labor than Taft-Hartley itself
Social Security-Kennedy's House votes
Social Security cast in support of
strong Social Security system. Early in 1913,
he was one of only 81 House members to
oppose the Gearhart Resolution, an effort to
remove some $4,000 persons from Social
Security coverage. In 1949, he helped defeat
parliamentary move to sidetrack increased
old age pensions and other Social Security
benefits.
The so-called Knowland Amendment to
the Social Security Act, which made it pos
sible for states to force unemployed workers
into trike-breaking jobs, passed the House
by 1876 vote. Kennedy voted against it.
Minimum Wage-In August, 1949, the
House voted 225-181 to remove 100000
persons from the protection of the Fair Labor
Standards Act. The amendment excluded from
minimum wage protection those who needed
it most. Kennedy voted against it.
Taxes-On June %, 1851, Kennedy's vote
helped to defeat (220-171) an effort to shift
the burden of new taxes from the wealthy
to working families
In summary, Kennedy's voting record
Representative looks this way: On 38 key
votes listed by THE MACHINIST over the
years, Kennedy voted fright on 80, wrong
on one and was absent ON five
