These People Made News This Week 2 The St. Cloud Daily Times March 27, 1954 Smith Sees T-H Bill Ready by Next Week I Under this federal priority, several state labor laws, which some union officials have said dealt more harshly with labor than the Taft-Hartley law, have been declared unconstitutional. The only area in which Taft-Hartley does not take priority is compulsory unionism, where states have wide latitude to outlaw the union shop and other union security arrangements legal under the federal law. Several have done so On most of the provisions in the revision bill, the seven Republicans on the committee outvoted the six Democrate, although tlie Democrats did go along with som of the changes. Voting reportedly has been completed on all items except the statu' rights proposal Language covering this will be prepared before the committee meets next week, probably Hall Declares McCarthy Has 'Harmed Parly' Omaha (TV-Chairman Leonard VV.

Hall of the Republican national committee says Sen. McCarthy (R-Wls "has don more harm than good" in his trade of verbal blows with top army As a result, said Hall, McCarthy's "senate effectiveness has diminished in the past few weeks." Hall's statement In an Interview Friday night came as one of the (Strongest criticisms of the Wisconsin senator yet put out by a high GOP official. Several weeks ago Hail described McCarthy as an asset to the party. McCarthy, chairman of the senate investigations subcommittee, could not be reached for immediate comment. McCarthy and subcommittee counsel Roy Cohn have tangled with Secretary of the Army Stevens and John G.

Adams, assistant army counsel, with: 1. An army report alleging McCarthy and Cohn sought special treatment for a former subcommittee aide now in the army. 2. McCarthy's counter-charge that Stevens and Adams used "blackmail" tactics in efforts to block the subcommittee's search for reds in the army. The subcommittee is now looking for an outside lawyer to help investigate the row.

Asked about the McCarthy-army exchanges, Hall "the dispute has hurt. Any dispute hurts" Shortly afterward he went before the Midwest and Rocky Mountain UV 5 rl TTf I ua i JLLLk iSl I SEN.

(AP photo) Douglas Leads Foolsore Hikers On Last Lap Washington W5) This big question loomed today as Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas and a footsore band of hikers pushed toward Washington on the last leg of an 189-mile trek through roadless Maryand country: Had Douglas convinced two Washington Post and Times-Herald editorial writers that construction of a motor parkway along the abandoned Chesapeake and Ohio canal would "utterly destroy" the lovely woodland between the capital and Cumberland, There was one sign that Douglas may not have helped his case by challenging writers Robert Esta-brook and Merlo Pusey to walk the historic route with him. They had to take to horses at times because their feet gave out. That might be considered by lawyers to go to the merits of the controversy As the end of the eight-day grind drew near, Douglas still was setting a brisk three-mile-an-hour pace. But the 55-year old justice who climbs mountains for exercise, admitted he was "pretty tired." The original party of 37 that had trudged out of Cumberland early last Sunday had dwindled to nine bona fide hikers by the time the group creaked into Seneca, Md Friday night, about 18 miles from Washington.

With the Washington monument just a few miles away, the walkers were buoyed by the promise of a truly regal welcome and a blessed rest. The National Park service promised to send a mule-drawn sight-seeing barge up the and canal to transport them the last five miles or so. The hike grew out of a Jan. 3 editorial in which the Post and Times-Herald backed proposals for a scenic parkway along the old and canal. Douglas entered a vigorous dissenting opinion In a letter to the newspaper.

The justice also suggested that perhaps the editorial wTiters might change their minds about disturbing the country's solitude if they joined him in a foot journey through it. Kstabrook and Pusey picked up Douglas' gauntlet but not without misgivings, which proved justified. Washington Ph Chairman H. Alexander Smith (R-NJ) today predicted the senate labor committee will complete lfe Taft-Hartley revision bill next week. Smith said in an interview a letter he received from President Eisenhower Friday, on the controversial question of states' rights in tlie field of labor relations, had removed the last obstacle to speedy action by his committee on a measure to offer to the senate.

It was learned that the only major White house recommendation which will not be in the committee bill is the proposal for government-supervised votes to be taken when disputes reach strike stage. All committee Democrats and a couple of Republicans have balked at that whole idea. The major portion of the President's letter, sent to Smith after his urgent request for White house guidance on the question of federal vs. state jurisdiction, simply restated in somewhat different lan-guage what Elsenhower already had told congress in his Taft-Hartley message last January. The letter also proposed one change in the law not mentioned in tlie January message.

This would give the states freedom to act on a labor dispute involving interstate commerce, and thus within the scope of Taft-Hartley, If the National Labor Relations board "refused to assert Such a provision would wipe out what has become known as a "no-man's land" of labor disputes which the NLRB refused to handle and states could not take over. But on the hotly-disputed question of states' rights, Eisenhower simply said: "Where the governor of a state determines that a labor dispute is endangering, or will endanger, the health and snfety of the citizens of that state, certainly nothing In the federal law should have the effect of preventing the state from dealing with that dispute. This was covered sjiecifically in my message of January 11." Smith said that his restatement of the President's idea would give committee Republicans all the guidance they need to draft a states' right provision. The Taft-Hartley law says that in any conflict between the federal law and state labor laws, the federal law shall govern. 1 fVt" i 1 it5.

Indochina, kP The French today stepped up radio pleas for a brief cease-fire to permit planes to move their wounded from Dien Bien Phu. But the Vietminh continued their constant bombardment of the besieged northwest Indochina fortress. The French hih command formally accused the communist-led rebels of flagrantly ignoring red crosses marked on transport planes flying mercy missions. A command spokesman said the French had quickly agreed to a rebel cease-fire request on March 1 the day after the first massive Vietminh battle for the isolated mountain position began. The enemy took advantage of the break to gather up "hundreds of dead and wounded." POLICE HOLD HIGH CARD IN WAITING GAME Oklahoma City (JF) Talk about immovable objects! Two stubborn drivers played a waiting game at a busy intersection during the height of the morning rush hour, screaming at each other to yield the right of way.

Neither yielded. Cars were backed up for blocks while the drivers, one male and one female, fought the eternal battle of the sexes. Both lost. Officers, reconstructing the case, put it this way: Miss Stella Faye Lowe, 23, attempted to make a left turn. Charles Arthur Looy was determined to get through the intersection before she made the turn.

They met in the center of the intersection, front bumper pressed aginst front bumpers. "We settled the argument." an officer said. "We booked both on charges of obstructing traffic."

HOUSLNO The GOP-donunated house appropriations committee turned down, 26-6, Eisenhower's plea for 140,000 low-rent, govern-ment-buit public housing units over the next four years. It recommended instead a 20,000 limit on new units In toe year beginning July 1 and 15.000 the following year. But tile house banking committee approved the administration's omnibus housing bill aimed at boosting home construction through Indirect federal aid.

There were unconfirmed reports Eisenhower might make some public move on behalf of his public housing recommendations, which were roughly handled by the house ap propriations committee. He recom mended a four-year construction program of 140,000 units. The house group proposed to end the work after 35,000 units were built. Democrats threatened a floor fteht for public housing next week.

Appropriations Committee Chair man Taber said In an In terview, "The nubile housino- nro- gram is a racket It just hasn't worked out like it was supposed to." However, Friday night the house banking committee gave final approval to other parts of the administration's over-all housing program. Key provisions aim at a stepped up slum clearance program and at lower down payments and longer repayment periods on government Insured loans for new or old houses. In a speech prepared for a Democratic dinner at Tell City, Sen. Kilgore blamed Eisenhower for what he said was the failure of congress to make any material progress on the administration's program. "President Eisenhower himself has said that if the Republican congress does not enact a dynamic program it does not deserve the confidence or the votes of the American people in the elections in November," Kilgore said.

"But having said it, the President apparently feels that he can wash his hands of the matter. Certainly there has been little indication that he himself will provide or that he is even interested In providing the kind of dynamic leadership which every successful President has exercised, and which a President must exercise if his administration is not to be a tragic failure. 'The hard truth is that President Eisenhower has not yet assumed the leadership even of his own divided party." Kilgore said that "we have noisy-sideshows in the congress and a failure of leadership in the executive department while the nation slips Into recession." "Today It Is increasingly clear that a divided and faltering Republican party does not have the ability or the will to conduct the affairs of the i nation," he declared.

He added, however, "when President Eisenhower's program is enacted we will have a sound economy more Jobs In Industry and a stable agriculture."

Today President Eisenhower the real leader of the free people of the whole world." On the cost of government the national chairman declared: "We are getting more efficiency In government and more security for less money. President Truman sent a budget to congress and said It couldn't be cut a thin dime." Hall said all Republicans have to do to win In 1954 is "do what we did In 1952 get out the vote. If we do we will increase our membership in the senate and house, we need them. Without stronger forces we can't carry out the President's program. "In 1952 there were 13 million people came out to vote.

Some five million didn't vote for the Republican senatorial and congressional candidates. "The thing we mut do as workers is to convince those five million people to uphold President Eisenhower by voting for Republicans for the senate and congress. It can be done. "Let me tell you this. President Eisenhower has rekindled the spiritual flame in mankind when the light of freedom was going out throughout the world." Timid Burglars Miss Bank Loot Yuma, Ariz.

Bacon told the annual meeting of the National Committee on Alcoholism Friday that, beside look ing for antidotes, the project hioped to come up with a "measurable definition" of the hangover.

Practically hitting the nail on the big head, he described one as "how a follow rc-ports he feels after he's had too much to drink the night before." The doctor took a dim view of present antidotes including a cou ple of quick ones at breakfast time, a shot of tobasco and oysters, and slapping yourself on that throbbing noggin.
