EXCURSION PARES | SAVE: 50%: ON ¢ RETURN PORTION © OF 'Adlai Wants Repeal Of Taft-Hartley By RELMAN MORIN NEW YORK W—Gov. Adlai E. Stevenson, addressing the Ameri: can Federation of Labor conven- tion, repeated today that the Taft- Hartley Act should be repealed, and he laid down a set of pro- partment of Labor. Stevenson blasted Republican claims that he has advocated com- pulsory arbitration of labor dis- putes. “It was charged that I had ‘embraced’ the principle of ‘com- pulsion’ by asking for the power as President to ‘compel’ arbitra- tion of disputes which threaten the national safety,” he said in his prepared address. “Now, after the great reunion on the loveseat at Columbia Uni- versity, I respect the general’s (Eisenhower’s) authority on the subject of embraces. But if he wrote what he said, he had not read what I said. “My proposal was, and is that if Congress sees fit to direct the President to intervene in a labor dispute, it should give him the authority to try, among other things, to have that dispute re- ferred to arbitration. “I did not say he should be given the power to ‘compel’ arbi- tration, I recommended a flexibil- ity of procedures, all built around the mediation process to replace the present requirement that in all of these cases the collective bar- gaining process be stopped dead by a court order.” Eisenhower last Wednesday told the AFO convention that a major difference between his views to- ward labor and Stevenson’s, was that Stevenson favored compulsion and he didn’t. The Democratic candidate’s ref- erence to the “loveseat” at Co- lumbia University obviously was to the harmony meeting between Eisenhower and Sen. Robert A. Taft of Ohio. Stevenson told the convention that drafting legislation to cover relationship between labor, man- Spectacular Crash Kills Driver posals for strengthening the De- |f Associated Press Wirephoto FRANK LUPTOW, veteran Tampa racer heads for the track after being thrown from his car in a spectacular crash at Lakewood Speedway Sunday, An axle broke on the 44th lap of the 100 lap race flipping Luptow’s car over several times, crushing the driver.
