wildcat Strikes

INDUSTRY and the public have long rec-
ognized that labor unions have come of
age in respect to the-powerful force they
wield in the economic life of this country.
But these organizations are yet im-
mature in many of their contacts with
management, the public and what does
them the most harm-their own members.
One of the most immature actions retained
by labor is the wildcat strike.
Of course union officials in general dis-
claim any blame for these usually brief, une-
sanctioned walkouts. They say that the
strikes are called wildcats because they arise
from the men themselves, and term the out-
breaks "protests" not to be dignified by the
name "strike." Sometimes the officers will
clamp down on wildcatters and order them
back to their jobs. But at other times they
actually sanction wildcat action.
Such an attitude discredits the union. The
wildcat strike defeats the purpose of col-

lective bargaining, and at times the union-
company contract. When it does this it de-
feats the basic purpose of the labor union.
And- it defeats the real effectiveness of a
full-scale strike supported by the majority,
not the minority, of union members as an
economic weapon to be used as a final re-
sort in pressuring management.
During labor's recent drive for a "beat the
controls" wage boost, Ford Motor Company
refused to talk about a raises As a result,
wildcats broke out in Ford plants. Carl
Stellato, a union president, denidd blame for
the strikes. But he warned the company
more stoppages would follow because he
would not demand that the strikes be
stopped.
So the walkouts had full union sanction,
and in effect broke the contract, agreed
upon in good faith. It also aided in by-
passing the bargaining table. The whole
business made the 'state of labor rela-
tions look pretty backward.
Such displays will result again unless
union leaders convince the rank and file
that until they do away with wildcat strikes:
and follow regular union channels for their
grievances, they cannot hope the public or
management will treat them as fully grown.

ON THE
Washington Merry-GoRound
WITH DREW PEARSON

WASHINGTON - The story can now be
told of the last cabinet meeting attendad
by Secretary of Defense Louis Johnson. It
was not a happy one.
Nothing much was said about Johnson's
forthcoming departure, put President Tru-
man, looking straight at Louey, said:
"There's a little item I want, to take up
with all of you. It's the matter of wire-
tapping. J. Edgar Hoover has been doing
a lot of wire-tapping . . ."
At this point, Attorney General Howard
McGrath interrupted.
"Mr. President," he said, "I know all about
Mr. Hoover's wire-tapping. I know every tap
he is making. He only taps with my appro-
val in cases involving savotage, espionage
and kidnapping. He has less than 200 taps
out. I review every one of them every
month.",
"That's not the point I was trying to
make," continued Truman. "I just wanted
to tell you folks that Hoover tells me he'
Isn't the only one in Washington who's
tapping wires. He tells me that many of
you are. I just want you to know that I
don't like it a bit. I don't think much of
wire-tapping and of anybody who taps
wires. I think the habit of having some-
one on the telephone all the time when
you are talking to someone else is bad.
It violates the freedom and dignity of the
individual. I want you all to cut it out."
Note-The most -notorious wire-tapper in
government was Secretary Johnson's close
friend, Senator Brewster of Maine.
* * *
SENATORS were whiling away the hours
during Sen. George Malone's slot-ma-
chine filibuster, and gossiped over the rumor
that Harold Stassen would become Secretary
of the Navy or get some other big govern-
ment job.
"Do you know what Stassen reminds me
of?" remarked Sen. Paul Douglas of Illi-
nois. "A pitcher of ginger ale which has
been left standing for a day."
* * *
Ken Wherry, the irrepressible and delight-
ful Republican Senate whip, is privately
burned up at the way colleagues, particularly
Bob Taft, inveigle him into taking the rap
for them. '
A few days ago this column told how
Wherry at one time put Albion Beverage,
"The Ghost Senator," on the payroll of
his Senate small business committee. Later
Beverage wrote the below-the-belt speech
by Indiana's Senator Jenner, calling Gen.
George Marshall a "living lie" and "a
front for traitors."
Following this speech Wherry confided
to a colleague in the Senate cloakroom, "I
met Beverage at a small dinner party Bob
Taft gave for a few of us. Beverage had

just come back from trying to run for Sena-
tor against Margaret Smith in Maine. Bob
asked me to find a place for him. Now, I
catch the heat."
The merry mortician from Nebraska also
told how pessure was put on him to make
the speech which was ghost-written by Al-
fred Kohlberg, the China Lobbyist, attack-
ing the National Farmers' Union.
"But," said Wherry, "I was too smart
for that. I let Styles Bridges make that
speech."
Note-Alfred Kohlberg, a leader of the
Chiang Kai-Shek lobby, contributed $1,000
to the New Hampshire re-election campaign
fund of Senator Bridges. He also contributed
to the recent campaign fund of Bridges'
secretary, Wesley Powell.
A HOMESPUN hoosier farmer from the vil-
village of Young America, Indiana, is
scaring the daylights out of Congressman
Charlie Halleck, one of the real GOP powers
in the House of Representatives. The farm-
er, Dale Beck, is leaning over back fences
in what is considered a sure-fire Republican
district and drawling : "It's time this dis-
trict was represented by one of us, instead
of two-Cadillac Charlie."
A private poll taken a short time ago
actually shows Halleck, who was GOP
majority leader in the 80th Congress, fall-
ing behind Democrat Beck. Haleck was
so worried he tore away from important
hearings of the House Lobby Committee
to return to the hustings.
In previous campaigns, it was hardly nec-
essary for Halleck to campaign in what was
carved out as an unbeatable Republican
area. Only one Democrat has represented
the second Indiana district in Congress in
the past 20 years.
Another tip-off on Halleck's concern is
that he has ditched one of his sporty
Cadillacs-it stays in Washington-and
now drives a middle-class car in Indiana.
His opponent, State Senator Beck, is a
hearty 52-year-old farmer who, with three
Marine veteran sons, manages 475 acres
in this rich, flat country. He has a "howdy
folks" approach.
Behind the scenes, Beck is getting en-
couragement from certain Republican lead-
ers incensed at the way Halleck dumped Ho-
bart Creighton, the party's 1948 nominee for
Governor, in a bitter scrap for district GOP
chairman last spring.
Republican dirt farmers are also asking
why Halleck went on the floor of the
House to defend an ex-convict, Edward A.
Rumely, who runs a lobby financed by Du
Pont and other big eastern industrialists.
Though none of them live in this district,
Halleck tried to get the House not to cite
Rumely for refusing to divulge the names
of the Big Business contributors to his
lobby.
But the main gripe against Halleck is Lhe
fact that he went to Congress a man of
modest means and now sports two Cadil-
lacs and an upstage manner. A danger sign
was the drop in Halleck's majority from
26,000 to 14,000 in 1948.
CAPITAL NEWS CAPSULES
DEWEY AND RUSSIANS-Secretary Ach-
eson was burned up' at Governor Dewey for
insulting the Russians at the official din-
ner sponsored by the City of New York last
week. He considered it poor taste for Dewey
to talk as he did when foreign minister
Vishinsky and other Russian delegates had
attended the dinner with the understanding
it was strictly a social affair.
Acheson agrees with Dewey that the Rus-
sians are practicing slave labor, but thinks
official American criticism of Russia should
be confined to business meetings of the
United Nations. Remarks like Dewey's, he
fears, merely play into the hands of Moscow
propagandists.

THOMAS L. STOKES:
Fall Elections
W ASHINGTON-There seems to be more
uncertainty about the outcome of No-
vember's congressional elections at this stage,
seven weeks before the balloting, than for
any off-year election in some years.
Ordinarily, about this time, the sensi-
tive political tactician can detect some-
thing moving, what politicians call a
"trend." But no practical politician is yet
confident enough to lay down a bet on a
trend in either direction. Of course most
of that breed were so wrong In our last
presidential contest-the 1945 "miracle"
-along with us amateur dopesters in the
political reporting fraternity that they
-and we-might very wil be excused for
a certain bashfulness and lack of bravado
and let Dr. Gallup go it alone.
Harry Truman, who fooled us all then,
still is a potent factor for this November's
contest. Though not before the voters him-
self, he has come to be more of a factor
than Presidents normally are in such mid-
term elections when local issues usually are
predominant.
This is because there is this time a
compelling, overhanging national issue-
Korea; and because Republicans have
chosen to pitch their campaign about
Korea. It Is the foremost topic in public
interest, since it is daily before the people
and affects so many of them directly.
It is, therefore, a convenient starting
place for Republicans to attack the Presi-
dent and his administration, beginning high
up in the field of diplomacy and military
preparedness and ranging down to such
mundane matters as greatly increased ex-
penditures, higher taxes, controls and pos-
sible rationing, and the young man in the
family who is awaiting a draft call.
* * *
T IS SO much the engrossing topic that
in some communities, it is reported, can-
didates for City Council are running against
Harry Truman and discussing foreign policy
and military matters with the glibness of
experts on a radio panel.
This entails certain risks, since Harry
Truman has a way of bouncing back as,
for example, in 1948. Republicans by
now have considerable respect for Harry
Truman the practical politician who bobs
up every so often with a horseshoe. Con-
sequently, they are privately worried that,
favorable as things have appeared for
them, he might yet bounce up unexpected-
ly again-through his own initiative, or
through something that might happen
that would turn out well for him and his
Democrats.
It might be, for instance, that what Gen-
eral Douglas MacArthur accomplishes in his
cut-off movement in Korea would in the end
have more to do with the November con-
gressional elections than anything that has
happened here, or will happen here. Coup-
led; say, with the fact that the country is in
a very prosperous state, which never is con-
ducive to startling political upsets.
UNCERTAINTY and jitteryness among
members of congress, of whom 432 rep-
resentatives and 36 senators face the voters
in November, were clearly manifest in a
couple of incidents that occured in the
closing days before they left to go back
home to campaign.
One was the decision to return here in
November, after the elections, to' do some-
thing about an excess profits tax. Members
discovered suddenly that their constituents,
upon whom they had imposed increased
individual income taxes effective October 1,
were very conscious of congress's failure to
tax war profits-a discrimination that was
too plain. So the House Ways and Means
Committee was left behind as a hostage, so
to speak, to prepare a bill.
The other incident was the panicky rush
to the bandwagon of the Wood-McCarran
so-called "Communist Control" bill. This
was a sorry spectacle of accepting any-
thing, no matter how bad and how un-

American, because it was tagged as against
Communist and because of the fear that
an opponent might whip up anti-Com-
munist frenzy among enough of the folks
back home to defeat them if they voted
against it.
In their fears they may have overstepped
themselves, and may have underestimated
the native instinct of our people against
such repressive measures. There may not
be time enough before election for a reac-
tion against this new law. But it is evident
already, as the Justice Department pre-
pares to enforce it, that it is going to create
a veritable labyrinth of legal tangles, if not1
rank injustice against innocent persons, as
President Truman forecast when he vetoed
it. Already members are saying that maybe
they will have to amend it-after the elec-
tion, of course.

Discrimination . .
To the Editor:
IF YOU applied to the medical
school, you would be asked to
state your religion and nationality
and to furnish a photograph.
President Truman's Commission
on Higher Education and a con-
ference called by the American
Council on Education believe that
these questions are unnecessary,
and could easily be used for dis-
criminatory purposes.
There is an organization on this
campus known as the Committee
to End Discrimination. This group
consists of representatives of var-
ious political and religious organi-
zations and residence halls. For
example, last year the Young Re-
publicans, Young Democrats, and
Young Progressives all sent repre-
sentatives to C.E.D. meetings. The
C.E.D. has been working with Dr.
Wayne L. Whittaker, Secretary of
the Admissions Committee of the
medical school, on thedpossibility
of having potentially discrimina-
tory questions removed from the
application blanks of that school.
The C.E.D. does not accuse the
medical school of discrimination,
but does feel that information
gained from such questions could
be as easily obtained after appli-

cants have been admitted. Presi-'
dent Truman's Commission on
Higher Education states that the
appearance of certain questions on
application blanks "constitutes= al-
most prima facie evidence" that
discrimination is practiced. A
school with as high an academic
rating and as great a reputation
as the University of Michigan
Medical School can ill afford to
have accusations of discrimination
leveled at it.
We ask all students interested
in the program of the C.E.D. to
attend its first meeting of the
year, Friday, September 23, at
4:15 in the Union.

T SATURDAY'S football game with
Michigan State, the Wolverine Club will
present the student body with an excellent
opportunity to increase school spirit on the
campus and add to the color of Michigan's
football games.
Though their earlier attempts have often
met with failure because of student apathy,
the Wolverine Club has continued spending
time and money to add to the spirit that is
so much a part of the gridiron sport. And
this Saturday, after two years of planning
and preparations, students will give the fi-
nal touches to the club's efforts, either one
way or the other.
In the hope that the freshman and sopho-
more class can't be as lethargic and lazy
about school spirit as the senior and junior
classes have proven to be, the club is request-
ing most of the frosh and sophomores to
come to the stadium an hour before the
