Taft-Hartley Law

Rests in His Hands

By FRED W. PERKINS Seri) Howard Staff Writer Ww. GTON, "July ert N. Denham, nominated by President Truman to the new post of general counsel of the national la- « bor relations board, is likely to become the most important labor offi- ¢ clal in the government. He will be the one on . Judgment the Taft-Hartley law will depend for success or failure. Mr. Denham is a big man physically, not looking his 62 years. He is a plesant but, forceful man, His record indicates he will be confirmed by the senate. Mr. Denham emphasized that he still was “only a trial examiner— one of the hired help of the national labor relations board.” He sald he would not presume to outline any policies until the senate decided he was fit to do so. Registered as Democrat President Truman called Mr. “a Republican of Maryland” The story, as told by Mr. ‘ Denham, is that he has been “a ‘ lifelong Republican, but is registered in Maryland as a Democrat.” That, he explained, is because his home is in Chevy Chase, Md., adjoining the District of Columbia. Like many other Republicans, he changed his registration to Democrat so he could have a say in Montgomery county government, “Another reason,” said Mr. Denham, “is that in 1938 I wanted to vote Democratic to help out Senator Tydings.- That was because of the ‘Roosevelt purge’ against Senator Tydings and others who had op- + posed the Roosevelt supreme court plan.” Another political item about Mr. Denham: He was born in Missouri, but says he has never met Pregident Truman, Th 1933 Mr. Denham was in finan- '" cial circles in New York. The banks were starting to close. Presifent Roosevelt announced his bank-saving program, and Mr. Denham says he decided, “That feilow had something.” So he came to Washington and worked on bank reorganization, After that he practiced law, and

His new job will pay $12,000. Law “Not So Bad” “Do you believe in -the Taft-| | Hartley law?” he was asked. “I'm quite certain President Tru | man would not have nominated me if I did not believe in it,” he an- | swered. He amplified, “I believe the TaftHartley act is not nearly so bad {as it has been painted by some of its opponents. | “It preserves all the rights of | organized labor. And it also places responsibility on labor Unions, “Under proper administration the new law will be of much benefit to labor as well as to management.” Attended 2 Universities Mr. Denham’s history includes: Graduation from two universities.
