STEEL WORKERS DEBATE The steel workers' acceptance of the fact-finding board’s proposals in the steel strike wasn't nearly} armonious CIO boss Phil} Murray indicated to the press.

However, he I ected to say that some local union leaders kicked over, meetin; was in Pittsburgh before a vote taken. | The loduest protests were voiced | by local union chiefs in inland | steel company plants, who pointed out that th ad previously turn- ed down an inland offer approxi- mating the 10-cents-an-hour in- crease for welface and pension | benefits recommended by the Presi- | der fact-finding board. How, they asked Murray, could they now ask their members to ac cept something which they alrea have rejected as unsatisfactory? The local leaders implored Murray | to hold out for at least part of the 12? straight wage boost originally demanded by the union. The CIO chief replied that he| still considered the 12l4-cent in- crease (in addition to the 10 cents for welfare and pension benefits) @ just demand. But, he argued! that the steel workers probably] couldn’t get any more than the | board’s recommendation even if} they staged a walkout. Purther-! more, a strike would be inadvis- able in view of the strong weight of public opinion behind the fact- finding board. “Let’s take what we can get and remain at work,” advised the states- manlike Murray. *“I realize that our locals in some. plants already are getting substantially what the i he | to four brass bands People who h board recommended in social secur- benefits and that others have been offered as much. “Nevertheless, we are ail together in this fight. If some locals have something the rest of our members do not have, let's even it up by accepting the board’s propesal. We can come back for more later when the circumstances are favorable.” FRIENDSHIP BOOKS H. A. Dunn of Austin, Texas, is a slim, slight, cheer{ul little man who works from about 5:30 a. m. each day as superintendent of the main building at the University of Texas. Two years ago Mr. Dunn heard there was a need of books in the Philippines to replace the damage done to school libraries during the war. So on his own initiative he jset out to do something about it, At the end of the school semester talked students into donating their used textbcoks to “the kids in the Philippines” instead of selling them to the second-hand book- stores. Mr. Dunn kept boxes out in the hallways to receive the books, and working tirelessly with no help from others, and shipped to the Philippines the other day 30,000 books. Mr. Dunn’s project was all his own; no spon- sors, no organized drive, no money help him—which makes him, in this column’s eyes, a real ser- vant of brotherhood. CAPiTAL NEWS CAPSULES MacArthur’s Secret Report—Here is the inside reason on why Presi- dent Truman suddenly agreed to let Congress appropriate $75,000,- 000 for non-Communist China. Un- til ten days ago, the President was dead set against giving a nickel to the Chinese. But recently he received a secret report from Gen- eral MacArthur urging him to re- traces at a stormy three-hour! United States would give aid di- Department. Then he learned that two darkrooms had already been built in the Pentagon—by the Air Force and Signal Corps—so John- son cancelled his own darkroom. THESE DAYS) o IR GEORGE E. SOKOLSKY DOUGLAS ON GAS Mr. Justice Douglas of the United States Supreme Court is simultane- ously a member of that bench and a candidate for the Presidency of the United States.
