There isn’t one of us today who does not fully realize that Or-
ganized Labor, if it is to continue to survive, has to do a better job
in its public relations. We have talked over ways and means, we
have worked out techniques and methods; we have, considered what
charges should be answered and what should be ignored; and we
have threshed out what to do and what not to do.

work with and for their fellow men.
Go back over the history of both the movement and the nation.
When the ideals have been ignored, disaster has threatened. When
the .ideals have been adhered to, both the movement, and the nation
have grown. The Labor Movement without its ideals is like a gov-
ernment without a principle. Unionism whether it be of a nation
or a group must have its high purposes ever before it.
Idealism is not an escape from reality. Idealism is reality—
for only as we look upward, only as we climb upward together, can
we permanently realize any of our hopes of a better way . of life for
ourselves as a union, or for ourselves as a United States in a world
of United Nations.

Washington, D. C.—House and Senate conferees agreed to freeze the
present 1 per cent social security pay roll taxes on employers and employes
until 1950. The house approved the conference report and as this edition
goes to press, the Senate is expected to follow suit.
The American Federation of Labor fought against the “freeze” measure
charging that such action would weaken the fund built up for payment of
social security benefits and make any increase in such benefits impossible to
attain. • ’ • •
Breaking a deadlock, the conferees had decided to extend the existing
rates for old age retirement of 1 per cent each on employer and employe dur-
ing 1948 and 1949. Thereafter the rates would go up gradually, as follows:
In 1950 and 1951, to 1% per cent each, in 1952 and thereafter, 2 per cent
each.
If this agreement fails to become law and Congress adjourns for the rest
of the year, the rates would become 2% per cent each on January 1 under
the terms of the original Social Security Act. At the same time, there would
have been no liberalization of retirement benefits, since Congress has failed
to pass any of the pending plans for improving the system.
Final passage of today’s agreement also will head off the increase to 3
per cent on employer and employee which would have started in 1949.
Representative Reed, Republican, of New York, one of the conferees, said
this threatened increase to 3 per cent would have been inflationary and would
have contributed to further price increases.
For the last 10 days the Senate had been advocating merely a one-year
extension of the present rates pending a review during the recess of the en-
tire Social Security Act. The House wanted a more gradual long-range sched-
ule under which the 2 per cent rate would not have been reached until 1957.
The compromise bill continues increased Federal contributions in partici-
pation With the states, for benefits to needy aged persons, the blind, and the
dependent children.

But unfortunately there has been been one important point we
have been too “het up” to give its proper place—and that is the
idealism which is the basis of the Organized Labor movement, and
which must be back of and in all of its public relations. As Father
Boland once said—“The Labor Movement isn t just a matter of dol- ❖
lars and cents, important as that is today. It is something far big- 3
ger. It is the unity of men for the good of man.’
Our nation was formed when people of different backgrounds

OIL AND HORSEPOWER ... It is a sure indication that progress
is under way across the land when old ways and new ways exist
side by side for a time in the same bailiwick. At Leduc, Alberta,
Canada, these days horses are grazing in the skeleton shadows of oil
derricks because what was once an important agricultural area re-
cently has come to be an even more vital source of petroleum. Ten
oil companies already have launched major operations near Leduc and
five wells have been brought in. First oil strike in the region was
made in February.
