under the Act of March 3. 1879 WILL. IT WORK? Ignoring a fervent plea from President Truman to uphold his veto of the raft-Hartley labor curb bill, the Senate this afternoon the presidential veto and placed the measure in the statute books. Senate action followed on the heels of House balloting which likewise favored the measure by more than two-thirds. Under the new law the government will have the power to issue injunctiens to halt national emergency strikes at least 80 days; closed shops are banned and other union activities sharply curbed.
Labor leaders join the president in predicting that the new law will not be workable and early reaction of unionists indicates that cooperation will not be forthcoming from organized labor. Along with the tax question, labor certainly will be a leading topic for the next general election campaing and by pointing to his pleas and his veto, President Truman, should he choose to run. will have a talking point to woo the large block of laber votes. Workability of the new law will be determined when the next national emergency strike is attempted and that time may not be too distant: It is certain that, the Taft-Hartley law is not all that could be desired from either industrial or union viewpoints. When it is first given testing.
there will be weaknesses demonstrated. Those weaknesses will have to be adjusted by future action of Congress. In the meantime, even a weak labor law is better than law at all insofar as industry-crippling strikes are con- MILITARY TRAINING The recent report of the President's Advisory Commission on Universal Training Is one of the grimmest and most, thought -provoking document ever made public in this country. There is certainly nothing new in compulsory military training--the armed services were urging it long before, World War IT began. But the' reasoning behind this reportwhich was the result of six months of study by the Commission--gives it an unusual degree of force.
So does the Commission's membership. It did. not include a single miliman or professional jingo. Its. chairman, was the distinguished physicist, Karl Compton, president of the Massa-.
chusetts Institute of. Technology. Other members included; Poling, editor of the Christian Herald; Charles president of General Electric; Dr. Harold Dodds, president of Princeton; and ex-ambassador to Russia Joseph, Davies. It is stated that, at the beginning, there.
was a wide versity of. opinion among the various members. But, at end, all of them came "reluctantly" to the same conclusion. conclusion consists of an eight-point security program of which compulsory training for all males at the age of or after finishing high school, is the keystone. That would affect from 750,000 to 950,000 young men each year, and vannual cost of this part of the program alone is estimated at $1,750.000,000.
The suggested training plan is an interesting one, in some respects it is novel. The Commission believes that should be placed under the control of a three-man commission, reporting directly to the President, of whom two would be'eivilians and only cne a military man. Training would in two parts. Part one would be of months duration, would consist of military training in an Army camp or aboard a Navy ship. Part two would offer a number of options, cluding: enlistment in the Army or Navy for a two-year period, enrollment in the National Guard or the Reserves with.
48 evenings 2 year of drill plus two-week periods summer: camps for three years, or enrollment in college R.OT.C. course In addition to this, the Commission feels that national security demands seven more ingredients: a united and formed nation; a coordinated intelligence service; stimulated scientific research and development; Industrial readiness war; an air force ready to strike on little notice; better ment and training for all the services; and unification the armed forces. It said that it viewed "with horror" total cost of this program, and could not estimate it. It added, the alternative was an "invitation to. The Commission: belies--as do all military authorities-; that the next war, if it comes, will arrive with unbelievable speed.
It observed that the obliteration of twelve American cities in a single day, along with essential communication, transportation, and power resources was not at all impossible. Ow monopoly. of atomic weapons, it said, will end 1951, and by 1955 an -out atomic attack could be mounted against us. The program it advocates would take six and perhaps longer to achieve significant results: So, if Commission's findings are correct, we must start in the future to prepare for the possibility of global war of cedented savagery and destructiveness. The report does not confine itself to atomic war.
It into consideration chemical and bacteriological. warfare along with the possibility of another war with traditional weapons. It found military forces are a shell." that the arn.y and air forces are virtually dismantled, and that at the present time the ground forces have not than 2 divisions available for combat duty. The Commission forecast that Its universal training program would produce a long list of benefits. First foremost, of course, it would provide a trained force could by rapidly absorbed into the services in time of gency.
and thus tremenodusly shorten the time necessary cffective mobilization. In addition, the report goes on, would improve the quality of the regular establishments peacetime: it would provide a large, trained group in community capable of dealing with problems of civilian tense and mass disaster in the event of bombing and attacks; it would help to channel young men into scientific and vocational training important to national defense, would give greater military strength at less cost FORMER ARMY OFFICER WHO WAS WITH BATTLE HAPPY DIVISION: PLANS TO RETURN TO GERMANY (By Ilal Boyle) San Francisco, June 23 (AP) The American frontler ls the world.

So. the division created a task force of some sixteen tanks and T85 doughboys and sent them in to clean out Nazi resistance and to take the fortified city hall. Only 65 doughboys were still in fighting condition when the task force finished battering in the city hall fortress, where the prisonkilled corpses of the burgomeister and his assistant as well as their wives and daughters bore testimony of the dramatic decline of the Nazi cause. It was a great charge that deserves to live in American military history A charge against the heaviest concentration of Germall anti- aircraft guns and small arms fire still existing in western Europe.
