Orders Rehiring Of Fired Workers

The nationa] labor relations board today ordered immediate reinstate-| ment of three emplpyees discharged by Lewis Meier & Co., 1002 Central ave, for campaigning for a change in the employees’ bargaining agent. ~The three employees had been . fired for alleged C. I. O, organ

shop” agreements. The board said the employees were discharged by the company at the request of the United Garment Workers of America (A. F. of L.). The board said it had no choice but to rule for reinstatement of the three employees since to hold otherwise would mean that an employer and a labor union, acting in con-| cert, could maintainx one labor organization in perpetuity as the bar-' gaining representative of its employees.

The new measure, which was referred to the house for concurrence, contains a proviso specifying that ‘nothing in it can be interpreted as giving Mr. Wheeler or any other committee attorney the right to

half of the government. Mr. Truman had vetoed the first bill on grounds that it might be interpreted that way. Chairman Owen Brewster (R. Me.) described the substitute as a “face-saving gesture all around.”

Ernie Pyle’s Home Country

Before Ernie Pyle went off to war, he had for five years been roaming the roads of his own country, meeting people and seeing things and hearing

letters and before he had been at it long, most of us were looking for them every evening.

“Hoosier Vagabond,” his column in The Times was called, and it was a good name: for wherever he

the things we do, he talked the language we talk: (and that is why we-loved him. Even when he went to war, a seasoned reporter of many years’ experierice, he was still a shy, modest country boy from Indiana who had endeared himself to Hoosiers everywhere as - one of themselves, Everything Ernie wrote before the war was eclipsed in the minds of ‘his readers by the letters he wrote from the battle fronts in Africa, Europe, and the Pacific. But his earlier letters about his own country have all the qualities that made his war di es famous. They stir every emotion: there is pathos, there is tragedy

There is many a scrap book full of Ernie's columns clipped from the newspapers; and there are plenty of people who wish they had kept scrap books of his things. |

Well, a book has been made up for those who would like to re-read Ernie's columns, and it is going to be published on the 26th of May. Quite properly, it starts with Indiana, but even in the letters from remote parts of the country, Indiana, and Dana, and Ernie's Aunt Mary, and all the things we have associated with Ernie keep turning up again and again, a Here in Ayres’ Book Department, we intend to keep talking continuously about this new book— Home Country, it is called—all summer and all fall and all next winter. It is that kind of book. You are very likely to get letters from us about it, and we are almost certain to offer it to you next Christmas when you come in looking for books to give your rela-! tives and friends. We expect you to like it, because we remember that you bought 7500 copies of Brave Men from Ayres and 7500 more of Ernie's other books—which is more copies than most books sell through all the bookstores put together in all the United States. Only Ernie Pyle has ever made such a record in Indiana. Of the whole first printing of Home Country, one copy out of every 35 is coming to our book department. We will have plenty of books, but it seems rather likely to us that a great many of you will want the book the minute it becomes available and iE

We are, therefore, printing a coupon-at the bot-| tom of this advertisement for your use; and on the, day before publication, your copies will be sent to our Delivery Department to be placed in your hands on the day the book officially appears, The price will be $3.75, 3
