However, ciganized labor had agreed to a increases of price controls were kept. Naturally Bowles expected Truman fo be pleased. He wasn't. Instead, ue launched into to tirade | against laber leaders. “Those labor leaders,” he said. “You can't trust 'em. They're wrecking the country. There's only one you can trust and that's John L. Lewis. Aside from him I wouldn't trust apy of those labor leaders.” Naturally this conversation leak- ed back to Phil Murray of the CIO and William Green of the AFL. It didn't endear Truman to them. But, more important, it upset an agreement by which the present disastrous inflation could have been prevented—all because Truman lost his temper. Incident- ally, it was only a few months lat- er that Truman was cussing out John L. Lewis for tying up the entire nation with a coal strike. In brief, more and more people have got wise to the manner in which the President tangents. He can send messages to Congress which read beautifully on paper, but, when it comes to carrying out those message, it's all too apparent that Truman doesn’t believe in them SECRET ANTI-LYNCH DEBATE Republicans have been planning to take in negro votes with their anti-lynching bill, but it - looks as if they would have trouble with their own members, and three staunch Republicans—Fsepresenta- tives John Gwynne of Iowa, Frank Fellows of Maine and Edward De- vitt of Minnesota—upset the GOP applecart at a closed door session of the Judiciary Committee.

This would have made it a violation of the anti-lynch bill for two or more persons to conspire to injure the property of another. The motion carried over hot op-| position from Republicans Case and John Jennings of Tennessee, who insisted that if it was wrong jto lynch a man, it also was wrong to “wreck his store or his home.”| “I submit again that this is irrel~ evant to the problem of prevent- ing lynchings,” broke in Walter of Penusylvania. “This is either an anti-lynching bill or it isn't.
