NO COMMENT By JAMES W. DOUTHAT T h e colum n , \No Comment,” should not be regarded as necessar ily reflective of NAM position or policy, for it is a reporting of inci dents and conversations which its author thinks might be of general Interest. ' l Washington — The highly con troversial issue of public versus private power »already is in the forefront of congressional consid eration and there is no doubt that the battle will continue, right up to election.day, next November. The Senate soon will reach a vote on whether it favors sociali- zation of hydroelectric' powèr on ' the Niagara river in New York, or whether it favors development by private 'utilities owned by many thousands of stockholders. ’ - By a 6 to 2 yote the Senate Publics Works committed placed the Lehman bill on the. Senate calendar. It authorizes develop ment of the Niagara hydroelectric power by the New York State Po wer Authority. The Senate will have a choice. ' Senators Capehart -of Indiana and Martin of Pennsylvania, both Re publicans* urged the Senate com- Education Bill — the controver sial federal aid to education \pro posals provide a new and inex haustible [method of taking money from the federal treasury and transferring it to states. Opponents say that federal con trol will ¡follow federal expendi tures just as sure as day follows night. 1 Education has always been a matter for the localities and the states. The federal government hasn’t got a dime that it doesn’t take away from the people. So it can’t give anything to a school system without first having taken it away from the very people who should be supporting the state system. Washington — While many im portant labor bills are now pend ing congress, their fate this ses sion is uncertain. Historically, very little labor legislation has been enacted in an election year. Blit this was before CIO merger and inten- of union political activ- DON'T BE LEFT OUT! the AFL- sification ity. Thus, legislativ in considering specific s proposals, the one big union might decide to wage an all-out campaign for enactment— or it might do nothing—or it may seek, to force roll-call votes, in order tot get its “friends” and “enemies ’ on record, without any expectation of final passage. Industry, however, already is ___ __ confronted by an AFL-CIO cam- mittee to adopt their bili to a’uth- |paign to eliminate, from the Taft- prize development and expansion. Hartley ¡Act the section (14-B) of Niagara power by five public utility companies, which are now ready to spend $400,000,000 of pri vate capital. \But the bill by Senator Leh man fD-N.Y.) won committee ap proval. Actually by a minority- of the committee’s 13 members. The fight over Niagara power is ' a' straight-out contest between public power and private enter prise. Most hydroelectric power bills in Congress ■ include, naviga tion, flood control, or reclamation, ip addition to,Jiydroelectric power. BUt the Niagara development is solely for the ¡production of elec tric energy. | '• Thus, say foes of the Lehman bill, the issue [clearly is between socialiazation ! of Niagara river power or development bp, private enterprise, and they point to the huge tax loss which otherwise would be obtained by New York State and the federal government each year if the project wer pri vately operated. And taxing ¡citizns of other sec tions of the nation to develop pub lic power for use in limited areas, like the TVA region and the Pa cific , Northwest, is arousing a growing resentment. Incidentally, foes of public po- • wer point out that the principal permitting states to outlaw the closed shop. Eighteen states now have these right-to-work laws banning compulsory unionism. Some of the legislation pend ing in congress is favored by sec retary oif Labor Mitchell. He, however,} expresses a doiibt that a Democratic congress will enact any labor or welfare legislation. Many bn Capitol Hill think that Mf. Mitchell blundered in attack ing the popular and highly res pected chairman of the House Labor Cbmmittee, Rep. Graham A. Barden’ (D-N.C.). Mr. Mitchell complained that Chairman Bar den had jaeen bottling up the ad ministration’s proposals by refus ing to permit hearings. Such an attack, it was generally agreed, certainly will not tend to stimulate}. friendlier cooperation from Mrs. Barden. Union • bosses, however,! might make consider able headway in the Senate Labor Committee where they have a sympathetic majority. Mr. Eisenhower, in his State-of- the-Union message,- urged enact ment of his program suomitted to [ congress [last year for revision of the Taft-jHartley Act. Indications are, however, that the administra tion will!not prèss for action. But if! the unions succeed in Ifgsjpp ’i Ê Ê Ê r y m f •5 ¿ i-vi?

Labor Subsidies also are receiv ing attention. Warnings of what can happen when, an industry’s labor costs are subsidized were stressed in a report of the House Merchant Marine Committee. Highlights: Approximately 90 per cent [of subsidy money covers operating wage differentials, and the Maritime Board was instruc ted to- scrutinize “featherbedding” practices; Non-subsidized operat ors are “whipsawed” into higher labor costs resulting from agree ments with subsidized lines. Result: The U.
