That Voters Who Want Rent Control Told to Write Their Legislators It was probably something like public conscience that prompted the upper house to add some attention to its own charges while it was dealing with a measure calling for an inquiry into hotel fire safety.

for the answer to your critics, THE STATE into the lap of the Wisconsin legislature Here is a suggestion to all voters who are either landlords or renters find nut Hie name of your senator or assembh man and rite him a letter on the subject. This is especially Important for renters. Landlords Mill write those letters without urging from lids reporter. At the present time there are two rent-control measures before the Wisconsin to express itself.

The contest between 10 members of the house and 10 senators over whether the budget will be cut by $, 000. 000. 000 or by $4,500,000,000 is just about as real as that. The figure that finally comes out ol this pillow f'ght will be wholly arbitrary, having nothing to do with the nbhgatio at home and abroad that this nation must assume It's astrology the treatment of the mentally ill.

Mrs. Charles E. Piper, Madison. Calls Board 'Ridiculous' Editor, The state Journal: Convert Lake View sanatorium to an old folks home! How stupid! For years the county board has robbed the old folks of proper attention. Now it expects to "rob Peter to pay Paul." It's too bad some of them haven't hud the opportunity to spend few months or years in a sanatorium, old folks home, mental Institution, or some other public Institution.

This statement may sound cruel, but in my estimation it would do a great deal of good. Methinks Dane county would be wise to trim some of the political parasites off her ridiculous and ancient county board. To be sure, many of its members are no credit. -Fred Kilgust, Ft. Stanton.

N. M. The Fight Is On Editor, The State Journal: At last see the fight is on between the switchyard and the people of Madison. I hear the switching, the rattling of the the dishes, not a picture on the wall hangs straight, the plaster is cracked in every house and in every room in every house, the putty is shaken from the windows and in the hot summer nights the floor is covered with cinders, so is the bed. The curtains are black and you can get up in the morning more tired than you were when you went to bed.

If you cough, you can spit out some of the black soot, you got during Hie night. Then they take our money for a smoke inspector! They got three engines that are not smoky, two old ones and a new one. The old ones make more noise and earthquake than the new one. The new one they use out in the country at Oscar Mayers. The hogs like it better.

Last week ihey started switching with double headers That is a new one. Now we get the shake and the smoke both at the same time. The city would get twice the amount on the tax roll as what the railroad now pays on the yard. That space would quickly be built up with houses and businesses Everett True. Madison.

legislature both of them the senate. ne is sponsored by Ernest Heden R- igema The othei 's author is Robert Te-han (D Milwaukee). In addition, a joint resolut ion authorising a legislative study of the landlord tenant 1 has been passed by the senate and now languishes in the assembly judiciary 0 ittee, of which Assembly a Vernon Thomson (R-Richland Center) is chairman In private eonvcr- homes, hospitals, or other privately-operated buildings get away with one-one hundredth the perils and inadequacies which the public countenances and perpetuates in its own publicly-operated institutions. Thus, we rejoice in the senate's action but we wonder. Because, if the legislature investigates, what it will find is a foregone conclusion.

And what it finds will force it to do something in the name of the protection thai has been ignored. That will mean money, a great deal of it. That will mean planning, revisions, reorganization -a great deal of each. That's what we nerd We only hope that's what the senate meant when it adopted without much fanfare this slightly-appearing but significantly-looming amendment. meant that if any minority of ommunists threw a picket line around a newspaper, the government might take it over and send a general and a staff of specialists to edit and publish the paper.

Thus we would have an official government press censored and edited by the army. In the Montgomery Ward seizure in Chicago, the war department detailed to the ludicrous little army of occupation as press officer a newspaper reporter, then a lieutenant-colonel, who had been In civil life member of the American Newspaper Guild and thus a member of the CIO, which bad caused the labor dispute and brought about the seizure. His press releases appear lo have been fair but they could have been political harangues and the company would have been helpless. The objection then was that the government could and did seize properties and operate them because unions had created disputes. There was no such authority to seize a union Any union, theoretically, could cause the seizure of almost any property merely by kicking up a plainly artificial row with the management.

Now Lewis repudiates the whole business and puts the mine owners in the position of beneficiaries of a trick that was originally rigged In favor of the unions over the protests of property owners. LEWIS IS A REPUBLICAN, HAVING gone over to Wendell Willkie in the 1940 campaign. Before that, he had been a Roosevelt Democrat. Today, he would write, if he could be persuaded to do his memoirs, a contemptuous opinion of Roosevelt, giving him little credit for any of "labor's gains," Ihe actual validity of which is now being argued so fiercely in committee hearings. Lewis' loyal and obedient subordinates contend that Lewis, not Roosevelt, deserves credit for the advances in the miners' pay.

The rank and file would not be unanimous on that Many of them still believe Roosevelt was their great friend. But few of these would deny Lewis a great share of the praise. There has been a legend that Lewis himself donated $500. 000 of the Mine Workers' money to the second Roosevelt campaign in Lewis then was still a strong, though not necessarily loyal, Roosevelt man. Loyalty would suggest personal devotion, which he would deny.

He would put it otherwise He would say that he favored a president who was at that time helpful to unionism foi practical reasons of his own and with no credit to Roosevelt for idealism. Lewis can correctly deny that he made this gift. It was authorized by resolution of the Mine Workers' convention in February, 1936. The resolution said Roosevelt had upheld human rights, called him "the greatest humanitarian of our time," and recommended that the international executive officers, led by Lewis, of course, be authorized to make such contributions as might he necessary to re-elect him. Lewis and oilier-; were authorized to call on Roosevelt and tell him so and, pursuant to this resolution, Ihe Miners did give $500,000 to the campaign All $64 Answers Russ Get U.

Editor, The State Journal: The people of this community are shocked to learn from The Wisconsin State Journal, through it's able correspondent, Mr. Sullivan, of existing conditions at the State Hospital for the Insane Your paper is to be commended for its frank revelation of these conditions. It is neither the concern or the responsibility of the average citizen to establish the blame for these inhumane conditions, but it is our concern, and responsibility, to insist that such conditions be remedied at once. I think can speak for the citizens of our community when I say we all assumed that the hospital for the insane at Mendota, was a hospital in every sense of the word for the case and treatment of the mentally ill.

We believed that all modern medical aid, skill, and knowledge were being employed in the treatment of these people, and that the environment in which they are placed was conducive to their recovery. And we find God help us if we are not moved to action by such betrayals of our blind trust! We are asking what we, as individuals can do, to help to bring to our broken fellowmen, the- care, love and restoration befitting this modern age.

Lewis would insist that this demonstration was that of a great parliamentary body expressing the will of Ihe members, not obedient to orders from the top. Yet John controls by appointment the administration of about two-thirds of the districts of the UMW. Under this system, apparently consistent with the union constitution, John runs the union and permits no impudence. He is a consummate apple-polisher, for he maintains his popularity among the miners by fighting for them He justifies his government of a controlling group of districts of the UMW by pointing to himself as a diligent worker who simply will not tolerate loafing or Incompetence In others, they shirk, bungle, or steal, out they go. but always in the Interests Of the rank and file.

The fact that this method permits him to control the entire union is incidental. During the rise of the CIO with Lewis as chairman, the Mine Workers contributed, one way and another, more than $7,000,000 to pay the expenses of organizing industrial unions. In 1942, after Lewis had quit the CIO. the Miners presented a lull for reimbursement. Almost $4,000,000 of this represented "services of executives, field directors, trained organizers attorneys" and other such costs.

One paragraph said, "the chairman of the CIO negotiated each of the several loans wilh the secretary-treasurer of the United Mine Workers." But Lewis was chairman of the CIO, negotiating with his own secretary-treasurer of the UMW and the loans were made by authority of the executive board, which he controlled, approved their own actions, all under their "constitutional powers." It was an interlocking directorate making said loans to a hobby of Pres. Lewis. The public has never seen a detailed ac-counting of the expenses of organizing the CIO. In those riotous davs Ohio.

The labor department, he tells congress, has fired six of its employes for bemg Communists or Communist sympathizers. And the secretary would like to bar Communists from running for either trade union or political office. But and here comes the great lesson nailing down a Commie is easier decided than done. Says the secretary: 1 "That' the first thing a Communist learns to lie about being a Communist." And that's the difficulty with all proposals to bar the Red lads from any ballot.

Who are they? Who's going to pin on the tac.s Some secretary of state? Some county clerk? And how does he do it? By asking, Are von a Communist?" and getting the foreronp answer, "No" which may! or may not be a lie. Another witness before the house labor committee probably pointed a better way just last week. The record reveals his testimony like this: "The head of a union local once accused a member of being a Communist and the latter challenged him to prove it. That union head replied. When I see a bird that looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and quacks like duck I know he is a duck.

You're a And that member he had labeled as a Communis! sat down." That will have to be the way to set them down.
