In about 10 hours, on an ordinary day, as'many as 1,188,0000 leaflets can be sent on their way behind the Iron Curtain. Current launching operations have taken on a mass-production nature, and gas tanks are used to inflate bal loons in wholesale numbers just this side of the Iron Curtain. In one recent three-month period, more than 41,000,000 leaflets were sent over Czech oslovakia. The question whether these bal loons which drop leaflets encouraging the peo ple in Russian-dominated countries to resist totalitarianism, are effective, was answered re cently when several countries behind the Iron Curtain complained to the U. S. State Depart ment about the freedom leaflets. And there have been recent indications where hydrogen tanks, which are used the inflate the balloons, were sabotaged in West Germany. The encouraging thing about the balloon crusade is the fact that most of the money for it comes from Freedom Dollars, contribut ed by Americans everywhere through their local postmasters. Thus the Federal Govern ment does not. have to foot the cost of this program, and the taxpayer does not have to worry about whether the program is too cost ly, or inefficient, and so on. Reports behind the Iron Curtain tell of the opposition sign, “NEM,” scribbled on railway cars, fences, buildings, etc. This is similar to the “V for Victory” used in World War II ; by opponents of Nazi totalitarianism. These are encouraging signs, which indicate that the spirit of freedom is not yet dead in Eastern Europe. , ECONOMIC HIGHLIGHTS • ' Happening* That Affect tha Future of Every Individ K ual Nation and International Problem* Into par able From Local Welfare. • . There has been so much top-level news of late that some highly important developments have inevi tably been observed. In a very short space of time, for instance, such events as-the Formosa situation, the fall of the Mendes-France government, the Presi dent’s series of messages to Congress, and appalling disclosures about the destructive power of the tt ‘bomb have had to compete for the headlines. One of the developments which has been getting less general attention than it deserves is in the field of labor. For—whatever side one is on in this— it seems certain that we are about to witness an all out drive by the .unions for gains and prerogatives of an almost revolutionary nature. In a recent column,' Doris Fleeson dealt with some aspects of the pending merger of the AFL and the'CIO. These organizations, she wrote, “de cided to pool their membership and treasuries for greater political effectiveness. . . . The trade unions of the United States will continue to take political action on a national scale.” She added that union heads feel the White House has pretty much put them out in the cold, and that they*ve getting nowhere with their programs and ideas in Congress. This explains why the top labor leaders aren’t going after the Taft-Hartley act nearly so hard as they once did. They don’t see much chance of getting any material changes made in it at present. So they are centering their big guns on another pet hate—the right-to-work laws. These laws, which have been adopted by 17 states say, in effefct, that it is illegal to make membership in a union a condition of employment. In short, a man can join if he chooses or refuse to join if that is his decision, and in either case his right to work is guaranteed, a right considered by most people as basic under the United States Constitution. Union officials were jubilant when Secretary of Labor Mitchell came out in Opposition to such laws. But much of the steam went out of the jubilation when it became evident that Mr. Mitchell was speaking for himself, not the Administration. The other'current union objective is the so-called “guaranteed annual wage.” According to an editorial in Life, the “United Auto Workers have made it their No. 1 goal for 1955, have begun piling up a $25 million strike fund to enforce it and have made open threats to strike if necessary to get it this sum mer when the Ford and GM contracts expire.” Life goes on to analyze what the guaranteed wage in volves, pointing out that it is primarily a matter of cost. “The cost,” it says, “of a general GAW might be great enough to drive some marginal enterprises out of business. The end results would be to increase the growing trend toward semimonopoly by a few large enterprises. And guaranteeing one company’s jobs might wipe out an equal number of jobs in less successful firms.” Government officials who have studied the issue, Life adds, doubt if even so huge and rich an enterprise as GM could afford the cost of a plan which would be really effective for all workers. It isn’t likely that the labor leaders expect to get all they’re demanding. But there is going to be plenty of shooting on the labor-management front before long. • Suttontown (By Mrs. Granger Sutton) Several relatives and friends gathered at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Oscar Sutton Sunday and cele brated Mr. Sutton’s Slst birthday with a barbecue dinner, with all accessories.
