Rival Unions Keep Up Moline Struggle 10 Local Officers Given Suspension Moline, 111., March 30— (UP)— Ten officers of a Moline local of the CIO Farm Equipment workers union who were suspended for alleged cooperation with the rival CIO United Auto workers, “will be in the UAW camp from now on,” a spokesman said today. The officers of FE local 130 at the John Deere plow works were suspended by John T. Watkins, district FE president, who charged that they were “in the pay of the United Auto workers.” Walter Rumsey, Milan, 111., president of the local, said Watkins’ charges were “completely untrue.” “We’re not in the pay of the UAW and never have been, but we’ll function for the UAW fropi now on,” he said. A merger of the two unions has been ordered by the national CtO executive council, but the FE has .ignored the order. Rumsey said , the suspended group would “observe the directive of the CIO national executive board which ordered FE to merge with UAW.” Watkins said the suspension order was issued by FE interna, tjonal president Grant Oakes. He said a special administrative board would be organized for the John Deere local which has about 1,200 members. Meanwhile, the UAW said that the national labor relations board will conduct elections next month to determine which of the rival unions will represent workers at the Allis-Chalmers plant in Springfield and the Harvester McCormick plant in Chicago. SPENDING AND (Cent. From Page One) one can even venture to make a guess. That one thing is to add to the already heavy tax burdens of the American people between M.000.000.0p0 and $6,000,000,000. “If we are not willing to reduce spending by the federal government—say wha( we please about it and whatever may be the great cause for which the money is being spent—we shall face a deficit or we shall be compelled to increase taxes. thing we ought to be able to do now is to increase exemptions of single persons to at least SI,OOO as Canada has done, and on married persons without children to $2,000. Assuredly we should give some credit on dividends actually distributed and assuredly also we should apply a special rate to corporate earnings not In excess of a fixed amount. And we should treat all partnerships at (heir option as corporations for tax purposes." Trade in a Good Town — Tecatur

From Page One) serious obstacle to the maintenance of effective rent ceilings. Woods said the “fair return" provision is a “more equitable" guarantee of fair treatment to landlords and tenants alike than the present, less-specific hardship rules. But the AFL, CIO and tenant organizations have protested that these two "loopholes" drastically weaken the measure. bn the other hand, the National Association of Real Estate Boards has objected that the final bill does not give landlords an even break. The association has warned Mr. Truman that he may bring on a depression if he signs the measure. Both the house and the senate approved the compromise bill overwhelmingly when it came up for a final vote. The senate passed the measure first, 78 to 11, w|th Republicans casting all the I dissenting ballots. In the ’house, 196 Democrats combined with 66 Republicans and one American Labor party member to push through the bill on a vote of 263 to 143, Opposing the bill were 48 Democrats and 95 Republicans.

Crowe, 41, $7,500-a-year executive of the National City Bank who disappeared one day before $690,000 in cash and negotiable bonds were discovered missing.

tion, with a school building as they ! now have, could not possibly take care of the added enrollment imposed upon them by any such merger. Thus, it can be seen BerneFrench would have to build another consolidated high school, and we, the taxpayers, would have to help finance another building in Berne. “Since the people will have to . build somewhere, regardless of , who the merger is with, it is ex- > pedient and of utmost importance - to the best interests of our rural i boys and girls, that we build for ‘ ■ ourselves, guaranteeing us a rural consolidated school in a more ceni tralized location for the three [ ■ townships concerned. I “It has been reported that the I > promoters of the proposed school i merger are attempting ' to con-1 struct a building under the present two percent constitutional bonding limitation, enacted in 1881. This limitation is one of the most i restrictive in the United States, and at no time have the promoters of the school merger had any intention of financing the building under 1 any such plan.
