NATIONAL REP! Saturday, June 23, 1951 FITTING RECC )GNITION Many . industrial concerns recognize 25 years of service on the part of their employees with gifts of watches, service pins or other mementos, but one seldom hears of any recognition accorded the wives of workers. The Armco Steel Corp. has just given 'handsome gold brooches to 2,317 women whose hus- bands have worked for at least a quarter-century with that corporation, the list including the widows of men with at least 25 years service. Managing Editor | the helping hand of a good woman. She is the ance | wheel that keeps her husband on the right road. If |it were not for their wives, many Armco men would | never have become ear veterans. Your Armco pin is our way of saying, ‘Thank you sincerely for all | your interest and help in the past’.” This gesture on the part of a great corporation is an example of employer-employee relationship at its best. Not one of these 2,317 women, of cour produced a pound of steel, but Armco officials aware that their behind-the-scenes influence had a very important bearing on the company’s success. CHANGE OF HEART Army officers are not all heels, and enlisted men c t-martial have learned this fact the hard way. W to request enlisted men to serve on court-ma at first almost invariably requested enlisted the ed of to facing hen the rules were changed to permit soldiers ials de- fendant personnel to sit in judgment on them. As the situation and a reaches court-martial almost always “No enlisted men, please.” It that courts composed of more hetic and hand out lighter punishment. Most enlisted men serving with good records. They feel nothing but disgust for fellow-soldiers who do not fit into the things and their feelings are reflected in verdicts they reach and punishment they recommend | There was little doubt that our system of court- | | martial needed overhauling, but the men in the rank | themselves are showing by their that it wasn’t the bars, lea tar sh | that necessarily meant a rough deal for the common | soldier.

Noting the hesitation, gmé?@fism figfi}gy bsnapped: . “Mr. Wilson, we are here to work out suggestions in a friendly way. But if we don't get cooperation, we will have to shift our target.” Wilson looked up over his glasse: a little startled at this implied threat that he would be next to come under the committee’s guns. “I agree that we will have to make some changes,” Wilson finally replied. “But the problem is to get the right men to serve.” The committee, which included Jack Shelley of California, Dick Bolling of Missouri and Walter Riehlman of New York, went away believing that Wilson will improve the situation. \ Smuggling to Russia Inside faot about the war mater- ials being smuggled into Russia is that seme of the biggest German firms are guilty This confirmed by a confiden- tial rej iven the state depart- ment by U High Commissioner John J. McCloy who estimates that $250,000,000 worth of ball bearings, chemicals, carbon black, nickel, machine tools, airplane parts, steel tubing, bomb es and scrap iron is moving behind the Iron Curtain} every year McCloy's probe reveals that the stage was set for my exports to Russia at a secret meeting in Dus- seldorf in November, 1949, when an unnamed East German C met with Ruhr industrial promised them an unlimited market ; for steel products and machine tools in China, Czechoslovakia, Ru- | mania, Hungary and Austria. Pres- | ent at this meeting were a number | of Ruhr manufacturers who played ball with Hitler The evasion of American prohib- itions against shipments to the Iron | Curtain became so open that Rubr | businessmen took advertisements in | Eastern Germ Communist news- papers, as I reported from Germany last winter. At least two of these firms, Guetthoffnungs Werke and Demag, both large recipients of Marshall plan aid, advertised in| the Commu Press. One news- paper even reported in detail how manufacturers might evade U .S.| restrictions on shipping behind the Iron Curtain. | | Truman Will Veto President Truman has pri advised Congressional leaders t he will veto all appropriation bil that have been slashed by the so- called “horizontal,” 10 per cent, across-the-board method Such a veto is extremely difficult for any president because to hold up an appropriation bill may mean without | appro ithe organization economyites who want to prune federal expenditures the bother of considering ations item by item oper- ates more like a scythe than a pruning knife, since worthy, or even vital items must suffer the same percentage slash as less important s igan and other it 3 f The president added that he in- tended to veto any or all appropri- | if it meant tying up funds for the government’s: entire domestic pro- gram. In that event, he emphasized, the responsibility would be on Con- gress, not on him, | have decided to do this' for two reasoms,” Truman.explained. “One that Congr is not doi duty when i¥ arbitrarily reduce appropriation - by “the horizc 'method. The other reason is'that! cutting funds for the executive de- partments in this way may be un- constitutional “I am doing my duty when TI| send carefully drawn budget esti-" mates to the Congress on what we | need to run the government. Con- ! gress is evading its duty when it makes an across-the-board reduc- tion in these estimates. Its job is to consider each item on its merits and make specific cuts.” Washington Pipeline The Defense Department is pre- paring a bill for Congress, freezing all present reservists in the armed forces reserves. However, World War II veterans will not be called except in case of a Congressional declaration of emergency. .. . Sen- ator Wiley of Wisconsin has asked the labor department to investigate racketeering in the labor unions and to assist the Senate Crime commit- tee in uncovering hoodlums who in- filtrated into the labor movement. Wiley cited the recent series of Kkillix bombings and beatings in the Chicago teamsters’ union. . . . Pat Hurley, wartime ambassador to China, tried to get appointed special counsel to the Republican Senators investigating the MacArthur con- troversy. He offered to prepare the ¢ against Secretary of State Acheson and to supply them with embarrassing questions to ask Ach- eson. However, the Republicans de- | cided they could handle Act n alone. . . . GOP strategy on Ache- son has now been reversed. Instead of trying to prove Acheson appeas- ed the Communists, Republican | Senators ironically are now accus- ing Acheson of provoking the Kor-' ean War against the Communists| .« .. Maine’s Sen. Owen Brewster, is demanding an investigation of | the Army engineers' Boston office because Maine contractors are not getting their share. Brewster's son, Charles, is counsel for the big T. W.
