A purge of the State Department, he intimated, was in order. “Well,” replied Peurifoy, “do you want us to fire the American Am- bassador to Italy?” It so happened that the name of Mrs. James C.

MERKY-GO-ROUND Though Senator Claude Pepper of Florida anrounced his intention to vote for the Greek-Turkish Aid Bill after trying to amend it, he finally changed his mind. Explaining his reversal, Pepner said: “I always thought Herod made a mistake by not changing his mind after he promised Salome the head of John the Baptist. His ieeling that he had to carry out his com- mitment to Salome discredited Her- od before history, disgraced Salome and just rumned John.” Add pocketbook Congressmen: Represen- tative Miltor.

He opened the first confer- ence by announcing “If you want labor legislation at this session vou can only go so far in adopting changes to the Senate bill. If you are going to insist on Gerald Landis of Indiana, agreed to go along.” Both, however, later put up a strong battle against the new National Labor Relations | Board setup provided in the Senate | Bill Democrat John Lesinski-of Michi- gan, a staunch New Dealer, demur- red. He declared that both the Serf- ate and House bills were “punitive,” though the House measure was “ob- viously far worse.” However, he defended onc part of the Senate bill—the establishment of judicial boards, as part of the National| Labor Relations Board. | | i TWO LABOR-BAITERS Loudest ouposition to Taft came from labor-baiting Republican Re- presentative Clare Hofiman of Michigan. Liemocrat Graham Bar- | den of North Carolina also held out for the entire House bill. Hoffman | did most of the talking for this | duet, firing irequent shots at “labor | Reds.” He contended that unions! mto which Communists have infil- trated shoult be divested of ba; gaining privileges and other rights “That's 1bsurd,” declared Lesin- | ski. “I'm against Communists too, Lut I'm not in 1avor of punishing the great m~jority of workers in a union if, through no fault of theirs, | two or three Communists happen to | bore in. Thaus something you can't | always control. Let's leave out thei witch-hunting,” 4 Lesinski also took issue with New y's Hariley and Indiana's Lan- | dis when they held out for separ- ating the aaministrative and judi- cial functions of the Labor Board. Hartley and Landis explained that many employers were complaining that the NLRB now acted as “judge prosecutor and jury. There- fore, the Bourd should stick to ju- dicial functicns, with an independ- | ent administrator to supervise re- gional NLRB lawyers and the pros- ecution of ca “Well, I am against separation of i powers,” pu’ in Lesinski. “That’s one thing sbout the Senate bill I wholeheartedly approve. It doesn't menkey with basic operations, but it does provide ior an extra three- :man panel !should greatly expedite the work of | to make sure to hear cases. This the Board. In fact, it's my opinion that the Senate bill makes a vast improvement in the NLRB.” Taft beamed delightedly at this Democratic tribute to his efforts. However, Hartley and especially Landis continued to insist that a ! separation ot the Bos POW! would be better all around, for la- ! bor as well as employers. The militant Hoosier Congress- man also insiste¢ that the Senate version of the “unicn shop” be ap- Iproved. instead of the much-tougher version railroaded through his own chamber. “The House bill goes too far, I'll admit,” said Landis. “Under it an employer can do just about as he pleasec. He can prevent complete union orgarization of a plant, even though a majority of the workers want to join and bargain collec- tively through a union. “Of course, a reasonable employ- wouldn't do this, but we've got the unreasonable ones are held in line. The workers should be allowed to appeal to the NLRB cr !for the right to form a union shop, Landis | as the Senat> bill provides,” | contended. (COPYRIGHT, 1947, BELL 5YNDICATE.
