The Whole Bake Shop”
The Retail Barrister, a publication of th«
American Retail Federation, observes: “The
Kennedy-Ervin Bill as originally introduced
has l>een widely interpreted as slapping the
wrists of union leaders with one hand and
feeding them cake with the oth^r. The bill as
changed by the committee still slaps their
wrists but instead of feeding them cake,
gives them the whole bake shop.”
The acid appraiser was occasioned by a
rather complicated provision of the revised
bill which, in the view of numerous students,
would make it possible for union organizers
to "rig" elections, and to frustrate free choice
on the part of employes in determining
whether or not they want to join. And that
is not, by any means, the only defect in the
Kennedy-Ervin Bill.
It would not. so far as anyone can see, ef
fectively prevent two of the worst abuses
practiced by unions—that is, secondary boy
cotts and organizational picketing. These
amount to blackmail weapons, whereby bus
inesses far-removed from the scene of union-
management disputes can be forced to abide
by union demands or run the risk of ruin.
Any sound labor bill must outlaw these weap
ons, and in absolutely unequivocal language.
Worst of all. Congress so far has shown no
disposition to do anything to really curb the
monopoly power of unions—a monopoly pow
er that long has been denied all other groups
in this country. Just getting rid of out-and-
out crookedness in the handling of union
funds and affairs, important as that is, won’t
eliminate monopoly power. The failure of
Congress to go to the root of the trouble is a
sad commentary on representative govern
ment.
The Best Of Ethics
At a recent meeting of the Wayne County
Medical Society, which includes the dty of
Detroit, a doctor paid high tribute to one of
this country’s leading pharmaceutical com
panies. The company in question is Eli Lilly
—but, as the doctor pointed out. what he said
applies equally well to any of the leading
drug concerns. All of them maintain research
departments stiiffed with highly trained spe
cialists.
The reason for the tribute is a new anti
rabies vaccine developed aft^r seven years of
work and research, conducted at great ex
pense. The old Pasteur treatment, valuable
as it was, would on occasion produce terrible
side affects. Sometimes these resulted in
death. Even though the patient survived, he
might be mental and physical wTeck all his
life.
The new vaccine is safe, and eliminates
hazards to the brain and central nervous sys
tem. It thus is a milestone in medical prog
ress. Vet, as the doctor observed, the com
pany probably never will recover the expense
of producing it, because of the rarity of
rabies.
To quote him directly, "This is pharma
ceutical ethics, business ethics, medical ethics
at its highest.”

spokesmen have described the plan to lift

gress supports that position — they don’t
want to reduce taxes.
What it all amounts to is an indirect ad
mission that REA can’t or won’t stand on its
own feet. As presently constituted, it has to
exist at the expense of all the taxpayers.
Thus it helps to swell taxes, and to produce
more deficits and more inflation. It’s hard to
believe that the American people as a whole
want that.

Stock prices have always moved in cycles of sev-

riods—Prosperity, Decline, Depression, and Improve

for profit in a period of prosperity, as at present, or
even in a decline. Wait for a depression when your
friends are all bearish and the future looks dark. Such
a time will come again, to be followed by improve
ment and a period of great prosperity.
