The July 9 1946 issue discusses Senator James A Simpson opposing federal funds allocation by need rather than basis of need and argues Southern states need champions in Congress to push relief. It covers Amish Mennonite stance against joining CIO Amalgamated Clothing Workers Union at Wilson Brothers Haberdashery Co, raising a clash between religious rights and union power, and questions if the Supreme Court will resolve whether religion or unions take precedence.

Lords Delay Showdown in Socialist Britain Crisis
The House of Lords, facing pressure from a Socialist government pushing nationalization, opted not to challenge Commons by overturning a measure excluding non profit insurance groups from social coverage.
