Reddy believes in being practical about June
weddings.
Old shoes and. rice may send
the Newlyweds off in the tra
ditional manner . . . but elec-'_*
v tricity will welcome them
home and help them Live
Happily Ever After.
So why not choose an appliance for a present?
Toaster, waffle iron, hot plate, percolator, egg
poacher, mixer—there are dozens of them to
choose from, and each one a long-time hit !

Legislation for the benefit
of the workers in South Caro
lina made practically little
headway in the State during
the 1947 session of the Gen
eral Assembly. The main rea
son was because the two ma
jor bills before the legislative
body were designed to de
stroy labor unions in the
State, and the friends of the
working people spent the ma
jor part of their efforts to de
feat these two proposals.
The most controversial bill was
the Rivers’ “Right to Work” b:ll,
House Bill No. 286. Many called
this the “Anti-Closed-Shop” bill,
but to call it by that nnme is a
misnomer, as the bill really pre
vented any kind of bargaining
contract by labor unions and man
agement that maintained any kind
of membership clause.
On March 27th the House
passed the Rivers bill by a vote of
63 to 41 and sent it to the Senate.
It was referred to the Senate
Commerce and Manufacturers
committee, which gave it a ma
jority favorable, minority unfa
vorable report. It remained on
the Senate calendar for about
three or four weeks without the
Senate ever taking a vote on the
second reading. It is on the cal-’
endar of the Senate for the 194$
session.
A spokesman for labor was
heard to comment that though the
South Carolina Senate had never
been considered a body to pass fa
vorable legislation to the labor
groups, it had always demon
strated that it was fair to labor,
and would never be stampeded
into hasty legislation against any
group, especially when there was
a doubt as to the necessity of this
legislation proposed by Represen
tative Rivers of Jasper.
The “Anti-Check-Off” bill, Sen
ate No. 40, introduced by Senator
Cantwell of Williamsburg county
early in the session was referred
to the Senate Judiciary committee.
On February 25th a public hear*
ing was held by the committee.
The bill remained 'in committee
hands for several weeks, finally
came out with a majority unfa*
vorable, minority favorable. Sev
eral stormy scsrions developed on
the floor of tbc Senate, but the
proposal never received a second
reading, and on the last Thurs
day of the General Assembly’s
lengthy session, the bill was car
ried over to the first day of the
1948 session. Senator Wallace of
Charleston county had held the
floor Jor a little over two hours
on that day in opposition to the
bill.
i So these two anti-labor bills
did not pass in the South Caro
lina General Assembly, though
many predicted that they would
pass, especially the press in the
State.
Below are the recorded votes
of the House members of the
General Assembly on the River’s
Bill on March 27th: I
