cooperation in the wage pause
the Chancellor was informed at
the Trades Union Congress that
to obtain labor's cooperation in
the wage pause he should reveal
what sacrifice he Is prepared to
ask Of the wealthy sections of
society. He was given to under
stand that the unions would not
accept unemployment as q weap-
on against initiation.
Labor accuses the government
Of having extracted" from the
workers this year EOS million in
increased health charges: in hav-
ing discovered" in April that the
nation was on the crest of pros
perity wave and handed out ESQ
million in income tax reductions,
and then in July having discovered
that there was an economic crisis
for which the only solution was to
freeze wages.
Such is labor's approach to the
wage pause. ....
Mr.. Macmillan will have to use
his best talents to achieve the
wage pause. BY and large, in the
House of Commons only the rural
members dare to criticize the UNI
ions. The only important thing
Mr.. Macmillan has done in de-
fiance of the unions has been to
cut the income tax surtax this
year. This refers to the gradu-
ated rate of the income tax start
ing at a higher level than previ-
ously. It is to take effect only
in January, 1868. 1t should be
noted that the tax cut is to be
financed out Of an increase in
the corporation income tax. So,
British shareholders will pay
greater taxes while company Of
ficers will pay less. 1t is not the
workers who are paying for the
cut in surtax.
The Wage Argument
Since the cut starts only in
1868, it has no bearing on the
current situation. Yet, as noted
above, labor is using it as an
argument against the wage
pause.
Both labor and management
in Britain must share the re-
sponsibility for the countrys loss
in competitive ability. The chief
argument being made here for
Britain's joining the Common
Market is that doing so viii adj

on management as well as labor. :,
indicative of the need Of such
pressure are numerous examples
cited by business and government
observers.
AS one such example there is
the case Of the well-known news
paper, the News Chronicle. That
highly respected paper had togo
out of business because it could
not meet constantly increasing
costs. When it was on its last
legs the paper installed new ma
chinery to provide automatic lu-
IRRIGATION Of the presses. This did
away with the need for an oiler,
but the union insisted that, an
oil-can man should be retained
on the rolls even though he had
nothing to do. =.
outprieed in Markets
In the House Of Commons
some time ago the case was cited
of a factory which, by installing
labor saving machinery, enabled
two men to do the work of eight.
The union insisted that all eight
be retained. Since the new ma
chinery required more space, the
factory had to build an addition
in order to provide a room where
the six men with nothing to do
could play cards. I
In shipbuilding jurisdictional
disputes and other union stipu-
lations have out-priced Britain
in world markets. A single union
represents engineering and ship+
building. Engineering business Is
good, so engineering workers are
In position to demand pay hikes.
Although the shipbuilding buI-
ness is bad, the shipbuildIng
workers insist that their wages
keep pace with the engineering
workers wages. 49,
Hence, Britain today is the
worlds largest importer of ships.
There are many such examples.
Britain has a condition Of over
full employment. Employers hoard
labor, lest their, rivals benefit.

Consequences of Attenuation, 50

ers themselves. If workers are
dismissed during a period Of high
employment, they can easily find
another job. But If they are
boarded, the situation is likely to
arise sooner or later in which
employers can no longer afford
to hoard them, and they will
thus be dismissed when alter1a-
tive employment is no longer easy
to get.

BEDMINSTER, N. J.-For 10

hummed cerebrally, deep in

community of country squires,
farmers and a few merchants

The think factory was created
10 months ago by the Lockheed
Electronic Co., a division of Lock-

gathering a group of scientists
from varied fields and requiring
them to do nothing but think, a
flow Of ideas would ultimately re-
suit that would benefit mankind
in general--and perhaps Lock-

So about two dozen scientists
were plunked down in a new Co.

doodle on blackboard or fiddle

8 State Counties
Have Mixed Views
On Negro Vote
Investigation

Three Mississippi counties have
greeted a secretive federal in
vestigation of Negro voting regis
tration with a mixture of strong
resistance cooperation and indecis-
ion.
The counties, Bolivar, Leflore
and Forrest, haven't heard from
the Justice Department since Sep
tember, month after it announced
it's inspection of several counties
to determine if Negroes are pre-
vented from registering to vote.
Bolivar refused to hand over
the records, Leflore invited the
FBI in, and Forrest hasn't made
its decision yet.
But in all this time, the depart
ment hasn't made its results pub
lie.
Contacted this weekend, all the
department would say was, "Those
counties are still under considera-
tion." 1t would not say if anything
was coming up or at all.

With the increasing support of

shall, and Leslie Perry at the first
big Civil Rights Mobilization spon-
sored by the NAACP in Washing
ton in 1850, at which we urged the
NAACP give its all-out support to
Negro voting rights and political
participation, rather than a demand
for the immediate abolition of seq
regation, and the call for imme-
diate integrati6n of the public
schools which resulted from the
1850 Civil Right mobilization.
My opposition to the course
which subsequently proved to have
already beer planned by the
NAACP in calling for the Civil
Rights Mobilization was because
we recognized the fact that had
been pointed out by wise students
of southern history and develop
ments that such course would
arouse opposition forces and actu-
ally defer rather than hasten the
full emancipation of southern Ne
groes. We think this predicted de-
velopment is easily visible to the
ordinary observer.
AS in 1850 we think we can see
better what is happening to Ne

of the south from our position of
living in Mississippi than Roy Will
