LaFollette Bill Can Stop Laho War . . . NCREASED anti-labor sentiment ac- tivated by war brought the recent LaFollette-Thomas bill, outlawing "oppressive labor practices," to the floor of the Senate. Pressure on labor was partially eliminated by the Wagner Act. but there were still loopholes permitting continLuation of untair labor prac- tice. The new bill proposes criminal penalties for labor-baiting employers. Teeth for the NLRA in the form of criminal penalties for nine practices are provided: 1.The use of labor spies. 2. Use of strikebreakers. Drew Pearson Roabe . A1en 60 WASHINGTON -Deadliest testimony against the Vinson-Smith bill to repeal the 40-hour week did not come from WPB Chief Donald Nelson or labor leaders Bill Green and Phil Murray, though the trio got the headlines. It came from one of the most militant advocates of the meas- ure. He was Mervyn K. Hart, head of the New York State Economic Council, who appeared as a witness for the legislation. But his testimony quickly turned into a boomerang when Repre- sentative Mike Bradley of Pennsylvania started grilling Hart about his background. Among other things. Hart admitted: (1) That he had been an active foe of the Lend-Lease program; (2) that he had been a member of the America First Committee; (3) that he attended the anti-Roosevelt rally in Madison Square Garden, at which Fritz Kuhn and other Bundists were present; and (4) that his organization advocated disfranchising relief wor'kers. While admitting that his organization had "participated" in the New York meeting, Hart vehemently denied any relations with the Bund. "Fritz Kuhn wasn't invited," Hart declared. "He just happened to show up." "Has your organization ever advocated dis- franchising WPA workers and other people on relief?" asked Bradley. "Yes, we believe that such people shouldn't have the right to vote." There were two very red faces in the commit- tee room when Hart concluded his damaging testimony. They belonged to Representatives Carl Vinson of Georgia and Howard Smith of Virginia. co-authors of the repeal bill. 1oointermg Federal Housing Commissioner Abner Fer- guson prepared a speech for delivery before the American Bankers Association in New York City and in accordance with regulations sub- rnitted the manscript to the Office of Facts and Figures for approval. The speech came back with a note from Cap- tain Robert Kintner noting an "inaccuracy" on page six., In the most formal and restrained language, Ferguson replied to this effect: "Dear Captain Kintner: I have taken note of the 'inaccuracy' contained in my prepared address, but I desire respectfully to call your attention to the fact that this passage was taken from the 'Report to the Nation,' prepared and issued by the Of- fice of Facts and Figures" IFiflet Iy Fit.iwiiic>s Joseph Fanelli is t .brilliant young lawyer who is Chairman of the Board of Immigration Appeals. His mother, Mrs. Mary Fanelli, came to the United States .from Bai, Italy, in 1905. She has raised eight children in America, but has never become a citizen herself, because she couldn't pass the educational tests. 1 But in the early days, she scrubbed the floors in New York office buildings so that her chil- dren might be educated. Appreciating deeply the opportunities of America, she sent her boy Joe to Dartmouth, and then to Harvard Law School. His brilliance was recognized. Now he presides over immigration matters in the Justice Depart- ment. Every year, Mrs. Fanelli comes to Washington to see Joe. She comes on his name day - Saint Joesph's Day, March 19. But this year she didn't come. Joe wondered what was wrong. Next day, however, she ap- peared, overjoyed to see him, but still upset about what had happened. "Dat District Attorney," cried Mrs. Fanelli, "he don' latta me come see my Joe! I tall heem my boy Joe cesa beeg man in Washington. But hl don' la m' come. W t'sa matter'?" The mttelr was that Mrs. Fa:elli. 37 years a resident of hIlle United States, and the mother of an inortant official iii the Juslice Depart- ment, was obliged to get a peniit from the Dis- trict Attorney befoi'e she could leave the com- munity.

This drew such irate protests from both com- mittees that Stimsoi has backed down and Ayres has been aut horized to resume his reports on "the inside lowdown." 4NJeITy4; O-ofii .

She had a laugh like a plumber's- friend and used the words "repulsive" and "nau- seating" to excess. So one day her mother said: (quote) "I think that little May is becoming absolutely nauseating., I shall send her away to the finest school money can buy." Money couldn't buy any fine schools-at least not for little May-so Mrs. Fuddy sent May to Michigan. When most girls first arrive at Michigan they are t-h-r-i-1-1-e-d. But not little May. She was nauseated. After all, little May had been around. The first day May was at Michigan, a near- sighted freshman asked her for a date. "I'd be absolutely nauseated," replied little May. She later told the girls that he was repulsive. Little did she know that this man would some day be the greatest steeplejack the world would ever know. A MONTH LATER little May was invited to a sorority tea. "I hate sororities. I think they'se absolutely repulsive, and all that sort of guff," she told the sisters. "In fact they make me gag." May Fuddy pledged to the sorority the next day. Someone asked her why she didn't try out for The Daily. "Oh," she said, "amateur journalism is repulsive. It nauseates me." She started writing women's fashions for The Daily in'her most repulsive manner. Soon she was a senior and people pointed as she passed on the street. "That's May Fuddy," they said, "she's eccentric." Everyone would look and they'd shake their heads and say, "isk, tsk." Someone said why don't you try out for the JGP, and she said "I hate the JGP, I think it's repulsive, and besides I was in it last year when I was a junior." So she wrote the play and asked that they withhold her name because she thought JGP's were nauseating. M AY met another eccentric during her senior year-a man who had never had a haircut, and they became inseparable companions. One could often see them strolling across campus enveloped in their ivory tower. Every few min- utes May would look up and say, "Repulsive," a'nd her companion, with a knowing look, would whisper tenderly. "Nauseating." Finally graduation day came near. Someone asked May if she were going to attend the com- mencement ceremonies. "Oh. no," she replied "I think commencement is absolutely nauseating. I gag to think of it." Little May, in her cap and gown, was the star of the commencement cere- monies. After graduation little May went around look- ing for a job. She went to several newspapers and asked them for jobs on their nauseating, repulsive rags. They said no. Finally she got a job in an advertising agency. One day May Fuddy's mother was reading a perfume ad. It said: "Exotic as a jungle flower .. deep . . . passionate, irresistible, it will drive men insane with desire." Mrs. Fuddy looked up and said: "How posi- tively repulsive." May Fuddy had written that ad. RECORDS- War Songs JiJ s Cn't Seem To Cook W3ith (ts T IS UNFORTUNATE that most of the recent releases have to do with war, because war songs are poor songs for the most part. For a change we will start with the Hot Jazz section. If you're not interested in Hot Jazz, skip the next paragraph: Jay McShann, a great Boogie Woogie man with a great hand, i often overlooked by the experts. His Decca recording this week, So You Won't Jiumhp, displays some excellent pianisties. Flipover side, One Woman's Man, is good blues ... Louis Jordan is really coming up on the list of Jazz greats. Ills Decca T-Bone Blues is intro- duced by the inellowest alto sax this reviewer has heard in many moons. Reverse side is Pine- top's Boogie Woogie. Speaking of Boogie, I re- heard Zurke's Honky Tonk Train on a Decca record yesterday and am convinced that next to Meade "Lux" Lewis' it's the best. Artie Shaw takes us back to the old days with Just Kiddin' Around on a Victor platter. Some great clarinet by Shaw, a fine trumpet chorus by "Hot Lips" Page-the tune penned by trom- bonist ?Iay Conill '.. Reverse side is a slow, comimiercial, bri OK-ish, Sometimes I leel Like a Motherless Child, with vocal by "Hot ls'.'. . Stan Kenton las recorded some very comuer- cial "swing" in his own nauseating manner for Decca. His stiffness is only matched by his lack of brilliance in Concerto for Doghouse and La- ment Gitano . . . 'Tain't No Good, Calloway's latest on OKeh Label, backed by I Want To Rock-two more of Cab's commercials . . DD pseudo-patriotic rot: Yankee Doodle Ain't Doodlin' Now, slightly better-than-average hymn of hate, by Dick ,Jur,'g('ns. Reverse side-- another war-i tarl- jerker, She'll Always R1inem- her OKebh . .. Kate Smith gets real blood- tlhiirsty in Iwr latest Cohunbia record, 'Ihis Time, backed by The Marines' Ilyinu.

GRIN AND BEAR IT By Lichiy "These are bad times for us missionaries, Snodgrass-religion we can explain to the natives, but how are we going to explain civilization?" off company in industrial 5. Vigilante activities. 6. Blacklisting. 7. "Yellow-dog" contracts. 8. Attempts to prevent collective bar- gaining. 9. Refusal to supply information to NLRB. Industrial warfare wich has been part of so many labor disputes could be eliminated through this law. Each of the trouble spots have been covered by its broad provisions. The criminal penalty provisions would finally bring to justice the conspirators against labor who have caused riots and refused to cooperate with the NLRB. And now when labor is being forced back by reactionary elements the bill is needed to protect the gains it has won. Senator LaFollette pointed out in the Senate that the bill would be a powerful morale booster. as well as an antidote against the indiistrial poison of unfair practices. In a broader sense the bill is a definite step toward industrial democracy, toward alleviation of labor's weak bargaining position. Its enact- ment would mean not only stoppage of employer anti-labor drives now, but l)ositive protection after the war. - Leon Gordemker BENJAMIN M. ANDERSON, Prolesr of c1- nomiCs at f lie University of California at Los Angeles, strikingly stale Oil( way of looking at the forty-hour week: We have a situation where, by a law enacted by the Congress of the United States, a situa- tion is created which would be the equivalent of a strike of one-sixth of our workers for a 50 percent increase in wages. In other words, you can only get extra labor, say, from forty to forty-eight hours p'er week, by paying a 50 per- cent increase in wages, and industry cannot pay it. To pilt it in aijol her way, if the forty-hour week were cctenced If) a forty-eight-hour week - which by all standards of health is a reason- able working week in m1(s1t iiultitriC, we coulCd forthwith increase he available labor supply at 'current wages by one-fifth, or 20 percent.
