M'GEE’S DRUG STORE Phone No. 1 ministration-approved changes Meany called the Wood bill “a Washington, May 4. The most t rans pa r ent disguise for Taft-Hart- noticeable factor in the operation of leyJsm at its worst” and said that the 81st congress, according to ^"Isome of its provisions “go even be- ; servers here, is the smoothness yond ^ Ta ft-Hartley act'in their which the house of representatives vicious and ma iicious attacks against operates and, at the other end of the Capitol building the, jerky and unpredictable operation of the Unit- i States senate. This is just the oppo site of the 80th congress wherein i the house ran away from its lead-; j ership and the senate acted as a ! balance wheel. j According* to the old-timers, the experienced leadership of Speaker enact the old Wagner act with ad- regard a vote for the Wood bill as * ' a vote to retain Taft-Hartleyism THE CHRONICLE Completely Covers Clinton’s Trade Area for Advertisers There Is No Substitute for News paper Advertising 3 :: Sam Rayburn of Texas, Majority Leader John W. McCormick of Massachusetts, of J. Percy Priest of Tennessee is paying off in discipline and action. Whereas on the senate , side, although Vice-President Alben, Barkely of Kentucky is president ot ; the senate, the leadership devolves upon the senate majority leader, Scott Lucas, and the comparatively- I inexperienced Senator Francis J. Myers of Pennsylvania, majority whip. I The vote on the Marshall plan ex tension is an indication of how the senate “went haywire.” From the speech-making and noise in debate on this measure, there was every indication that the senate was “out I of hand.” The vote, however, show- ** ed only seven senators against the measure. So it was the sniping and the “stalling” tactics used by those few which Lucas could not control.’ The ECA plan went through, almost as it came from the hands of the senate foreign relations com- [ mittee and those seven negative 1 votes were from only five states — ’ Senators Capehart and Jenner from Indiana, Wherry and Butler from Nebraska, Langer of North Dekota, Kem of Missouri — all Republicans — and Ellender of Louisiana, the lone Democrat. The administration’s new “fair| income” bill sponsored by Secretary of Agriculture Brannan, faces a fight 1 from those Republicans who are committed to the Hope-Aiken law now on the statute hooks, but which does not become operative until January 1, 1950. It retains the price : support system for basic commodi- i ties, or storable products and a direct B farm subsidy for perishables which 8 would give the farmer a fair income ft j and, at the same time, provide for S cheaper foods at the retail level. 8 The only indication of how con gress feels about civil rights was 1 brought to light in the house when that body, by a vote of 193 to 153. voted against any segregation or, discrimination in t&e armed forces,’ specifically the women’s reserve of the coast guard. However, almost: ^Immediately the house sabotaged its vote by sending the bill back to the committee, so that as this is written all that remains on the record is the sentiment expressed, but no legisla- 1 tion. Here is how one old-time observer predicts the Democrats will repeal the Taft-Hartley act: They will actually repeal the act, thereby taking the name off the books. Then they will bring out the Lesinski bill, strike out all of the bill after the enacting clause and substitute therefor the Wood | bill. The Wood bill, it seems ! is almost a dead ringer for the Taft- ! Hartley law with some of the amend ments which already have been agreed upon. So there you have it—! repeal of the Taft-Hartley act,! passage of the Lesinski bill, which is the Wood bill, which is in effect ; the Taft-Hartley act all over again. The house by vote has passed thej ! agricultural appropriation bill car- j rying a net appropriation of $512,122,079, plus $603,000. in loan authority and $139,001,310 in perma- ! nent appropriations. The bill carried 1 $701,122,079 in direct appropriations! j against a budget estimate of $726 -, 879,908. The 1949 appropriation was $573,888,953. But this direct appro- I priation of $701,122,079 was reduced by the recission of $189,000,000, a re volving fund for federal land banks. The Farmers’ Home administration 1 was given loan authorization ot $103,000,000 and the Rural Electrifi cation administration was given loan authorization of $350,000,000 witn i provision that this could be increased by $150,000,000 if the secretary ot! agriculture found it necessary. The! $(5,000,000 for school lunches whicn heretofore has come out of Section 32 funds was made as a direct ap propriation and Section 32 was set up as a definite $125,000,000 fund derived from customs receipts anl which is to be used to promote con sumption of agricultural products. AFL CONSIDERS SUBSTITUTE LABOR BILL OBNOXIOUS Washington, May 4. — The AFL served notice on congress today that It. considers a coalition substitute for the administration labor bill as obnoxious—or more so—than the Taft-Hartley act which the unions want repealed. This blast at the bill sponsored by Representative Wood (D-Ga.) with Republican backing came from Geo. 1 Meany, AFL secretary-treasurer, in a radio speech. As he delivered it, house members were straggling back to the capital from a 10-day Easter vacation to plunge into a scrap next week over the controversial labor legislation. Labor unions had asked their members to turn the heat on the ron^’-essmen , during the’r vis f ts to BETTER LIVING BEGINS WHEN YOU BEGIN NEW HOMES—If you have been thinking about a new home, this is the time to start building.
