Administrotion Is Logging On Toft-Hartley Repeal

Prolonged, Bitter Struggle Over Law Latest Forecast

Murder Trial Kiss

Labor Secretary Maurice Tobin

Special to Central Press mr • ASHIMiTON The administration is far behind schedule on W repeal of the Taft-Hartley labor law. On Nov 15 Labor Secretary Maurice Tobin told the American Federation of Labor convention at Cincinnati that the law would be repealed within 30 days after the new Congress convened. The first 30 days of the 81st Congress came and went without indications of any speedy enactment of the legislation. Indications pointed to a bitter, prolonged struggle over the

promised repeal.

In the Senate, at least, the Democrats apparently will have no easy job in fulfilling their

campaign pledge.

The Republican opposition, led by shrewd, hardhitting Senator Robert A. Taft of Ohio, is not missing a single trick. And it has plenty up its

collective sleeve.

Taft began the fight by tearing apart the testimony of administration witnesses before the Senate labor committee. He then hit the headlines with an analysis which said that the Truman followers like a lot of the Taft-Hartley law. Next, Republicans backed the Democrats into a corner on the matter of the length of the hearings on the proposed substitute labor bill. Democrats wanted to end them within 10 (lays but

found themselves passing the deadline with some of their key union

witnesses still unheard.

Th" next GOP move will come in executive sessions of the commitb.e which will report out a bill for Senate action. Taft and his colleagues will ofler countless amendments to the administratior. bill One Republican senator predicted that it will take two to four weeks foi the committee to report a bill.

• TOUCH ME NOT Congress if being besieged these days with white hot campaigns for protection of "pet’’ government agencies against streamlining and reorganization. The result is that genuine objective reorganization faces a terrific fight. If a real program is worked Aut, it will rank as an

atomic age miracle.

The “touch-me-not" chorus is centering ils protests right now on the Army Engineers. But a lot of other agencies are getting set for a siege. In fact. Congress may be beset with the biggest log-rolling spree since the Smoof-Hawley Tariff Act was passed in 1930. The Railroad Brotherhood brigade got special protection for the railroad agencies when the House passed the administration reorganization bill. However, the bigger the list of agencies due for streamlining grows, the greater the 'number ci campaigns for immunity that are planned. The House reorganization bill merely requires that plans affect* ing the select agencies shall be in "single packages." That makes it comparatively easy for the opposition to kill them, one by one.

• ARMED TRUCK,?—The drawn-out. no-hnlds-batred battle within the armed services for power, which has blocked effective unification for a year-and-a-half now, may be resolved £.7 long last by the

former Republican president.

The recommendations of the Herbert Hoover commission on government reorganization are reported to include a plan which may

settle the knotty, touchy tangle.

In essence the Hoover commission plan is said to recommend a sharp reduction in the authority of the secretaries of Air, Army

and Navy. At the same time it would increase the power of Defense Secretary James Forrestal The intra-service .power fight ha> been made possible because all of the secretaries have places on the National Security Council which operates under the direction of President Truman. All have voices

in council decisions.

Originally the Hoover commission considered simply abolishing the offices now held by Stuart Symington. Kenneth Royall and John L. Sullivan as secretaries for Air, Army and Navy. This very drastic decision was finally scrapped. The substitute plan would place a civilian chief-of-staff over the three secretaries to co-ordina‘e their work and, perhaps more than ncidentally. to control any tendency to breik out of tb" rm**"»f
