The advice should, of course, be heeded but it this and we have no doubt that the chairman of the International | Fisheries Commission himself will be the first to follow it. This section is fortunate in having a spokesman so | influential in these circles, and so able to keep in close touch with developments in that field. His admonition might be extended to other fields in which these new international organizations, with their interminable names and elaborate ramifications, may be disposed to dabble. It will be a pious idea to k an eye on all of them. Airline Accomplishments (New York Times) While the attention of the country turned to the question whether Congress will propriate funds necessary for national security through air power, the civil airlines continue to make important strikes in service and in safetv. Pan American-Grace Airways has just inaugurated its express flight “El Inter Americano,” which links Miami and Buenos Aires in the space of a single day and night. The memory span of one generation easily can recall the seventy days that were required to reach the South American capital under sail and the twenty-one days by steam. Now giant DC-6 liners, equipped as s clubs or sky sleepers, make Balboa in 9% hours, Lim in 16 hours, San Diego in 21 hours and the Argentine capital in 24 hours. In all directions the earth shrinks. American, tastern, Trans-World, United, Northwest and other airlines, large and small, are bringing the cities of this continent close to New York, the great air hub. In the swift DC-6's and Constellations, San Fran- cisco is only 107% hours away; Los Angeles, 11 hours; London, less than 14 hours; Miami, 4 hours; Chicago, 3 hours and 10 minutes. The Twin Cities can be reached in just over 6 hours; Seattle in 144 hours and Tokyo in 46'¢ hours, over the Great Circle of the North Pacific. Time no longer is a barrier and the dependability of service continuously mounts. | With the intensive study now being made of clec- tronic airways aids, with the constant progress of design in plane and power plant, and with the evident will of Congress to provide a complete safety block system for the air, civil aviation is embarked on a chapter of still greater usefulness to the nation, at home and overseas. < Unionism (Ketchikan News) The general public is sympathetic toward union aims, for, the public, mostly, is composed of the | working classes. However, the time is past when the public blindly will accept everything advocated by unions without a full explanation as to the merits of the point at issue. The public is becoming more dis cerning in separating the “sheep from the goats It knows there are subversive labor racketeers intent only on making use of union labels to influence and betray public interest. Any one who dares to try and present an impartial view is classed as a “labor " In another class, some unions, in calling s to evade the Taft-Hartley law because of the shop provisions, are defeating their ends ny causing more and more non-strikers to go to work, along with a growing loss of public support. The Taft- Harley act is the law of the land. It can be attacked in the courts or later amended, but in trying to evade it, the curse is wo than the disease. powerful unions, already in pessession, by obeying it, could do much more in continuing and maintaining union shops, than in striking to by-pass it, thus weak- ening their own cause and holding up necessary production. s to build up the blandly admitted McGrath will only accompany President Truman as far as Chica- go on the forthcoming western campaign trip.
