A of course some of the younger unions still lighting for acceptance Are a Little rambunctious at times. Jack Kroll and i were rambunctious once Kroll was described by the act president is a a pillar of strength in our Union a True disciple of the teachings of Sidney Hillman. Praise also was accorded Kroll a through his efforts More Citi-1 zins will Register and vote Quot Carey said. A and As the result we will win a More responsive Congress. We Are called names but if there is anything in american about that i would a like to know what it ing of Low volatile Coal except for mechanical stoking. The first fight was lost As the Republican including mayor Stewart scuttled the st. Louw Type ordinance. But this time the charter committee mustered All its civic resources and organized one it it the greatest exhibitions of Public demand Evec seen in Cincinnati. V political Dop Esters listed Stew Art and majority Leader Gradison against the ordinance in Early phases. Councilman Gordon Scherer was seen As the Lone Republican Friendly to it and it author Stively is reported that he took a Tongue lashing from Stewart and Gradison for his position. But the uprising of Public opinion threw fear into the ninth Street gop Bosses that the Issue might mean the loss of this Falls Council manic election. They were not willing that their councilmen vote for the Cash ordinance so they resorted to an old trick. Mayor Stewart presented an ordinance the Backbone of w hich was composed of the Cash provisions. Even in arguing for the Ord Ance Stew Art expressed the Opin a Ion that Cincinnat ians w Ould be us appointed in it As an Indica Man.

R t. To decision against John l. Lewis and the United mine workers Al is packed with Legal dynamite against All of organized labor a Federated press spot Check with prominent labor lawyers Here showed March 7. In statements to up the lawyers who represent Al and Cio International and local unions unanimously agreed that the decision smashed a key part of the Norris Laguardia act and was a shocking attack on unionism. Their viewpoints follow Samuel j. Cohen the decision is another unfortunate instance of a hard cases making bad the entire purpose of the Norris Laguardia anti injunction act is thwarted if a flagrantly improper injunction must be obeyed while an Appeal is being taken. From the viewpoint of labor this is the equivalent of fiddling while Rome Burns. The result under such procedure would be not to press Rve but to destroy the status quo. It is Clear that this violates both the letter and spirit of the anti Junction Law. Nathan Witt the 5 to 4 decision holding that the Norris Laguardia act does no to apply to the government is the most incredible phase. What we have always fought against is government by injunction. The whole fight for passage of the Norris Laguardia act stemmed principally from the fact that it was the government which was getting those strike breaking injunctions starting with the famous Debs injunction Back in 1894. Emil Schlesinger a very shocking decision. To an extent government by injunction has been reintroduced into la Boi management re members in the Days w Hen it was necessary to 5>e rambunctious he said. He recalled How Many in the audience formerly had braved Zero weather on picket lines privations for their families and other hardships a to win the rights of free men and his greatest help Kroll said came from the a courage and understanding of my w mrs. Kroll w As by his Side at the speakers table and was introduced. Kroll also praised Hartmann and the local act staff for providing the leadership Here which made it possible for him to go to his National task. The Formica co. The Union won it for him in arbitration of a Job study and reclassification. Some will go to the missus some for a new stove and it All will come in mighty Cole Slid. A sinister indeed was Case Story w a sinister strikes Quot was the head a have been futile that More was put this week on an editorial discussing the 14-month j. I. Case farm equipment co. Strike by the United Auto workers which has just been settled. The Enqu Nec used All the old arguments which if True would mean All labors strike struggles lost to the workers and Community than Ever will be regained. It added that a we wont say there was something More than. Met the Eye. But if some foreign ideologists Quot Etc. The facts Are that the Case strikers were seeking something considered vital by All american unionists some form of Union Security a contract that a Ould put the company on record As intending to enter and continue in genuine collective bar lations. It w As never the intention of Congress j gaining on a continuous basis is to exclude the government when it passed the j the Way to Industrial peace. The Norris Laguardia act because it w As Well aware j enquirer sees the quest As a sin of the whole history of government use of the injunction for example the Debs Case and the 1924 Daugherty injunction against the railway showmen. The net result of the decision is that we re Back to the Days when employers can use the courts to break strikes. The whole fight for the Norris Laguardia act has lost its Force and significance. Co i own program Abc network 6 43 pm 1st every saturday Check your lock i station for exact Tima a 11surefire99 show says variety Leonard Boudin Only two members of the court Frank Murphy and Wiley Rutledge were lawyers enough and Brave enough to decide the Case in accordance with w Ell settled principles of Lawr and the realities of labor relations in the Coal Industry. It was perfectly Clear that Congress never intended to exempt the government from the Norris Laguardia act and it was equally Clear that in this Case the government was not the employer in the usual sense but we As merely a custodian. Sam Shapiro the decision is very disastrous for labor. Although the Truman government seized the mines under its War Powers w Ith the kind of Congress we have now they May very easily pass legislation authorizing the government to seize property under almost any a a emergency conditions. Then in the event of a strike movement the government could use that Power to smash the strikes. The court has Given a very effective weapon to a government that would be anxious to break labor and our government seems to be moving in that direction. but the really sinister thing the enquirer failed to report was the manner in which the resources of the american government and Treasury w As used to defeat the Union in its quest for Security. The financial statement of the company show s an operating loss of $416.854 for the year ending oct. 31, 1946, but because of the infamous carry Back tax provisions there w As refunded to the company $1,900,000 from previously paid excess profits taxes that meant a net profit for the company of $1,483.145 enjoyed while sitting Idle refusing to bargain with Law on the question of Union Security. The carry Back provision Theo uti Cally was intended to protect companies against losses in reconversion. Actually it w As i vicious encouragement to them to pick a fight with unions secure in the knowledge they would suffer no financial loss. There might have been a different Story at the j. A. Case co. Had the strike meant sacrifices for the company As Well As for the workers
