Farm Elements Still Tops
LIl
On lowa Political Scene
BY PETER EDSON
NEA Service Correspondent
DES MOINES, lowa.—(NEA)—lowa’s industrial
product is now equal to, or even a little higher than
its agricultural product. Each is now estinrated as
having an annual value of about $2,000,000,000 a
year.
But any idea {hat Jowa has become, or is becom=
fng, ah industrial state — in the same sense that
Ohio, Indiana and Illinois have become industrial=-
ized, would be wrong. So the political forces that
dominate, or try to dominate, in primarily industrial
states are not so active in lowa.
There are strong organizations of the Jowa Manu=
facturers’ Association and an lowa Development
Commission. I. M. A. sponsored the Development
Commission at the end of the war, and got it state
funds to bring new industrtes to the state.
“But,” says Ed. A. Kimball, nmanager of the Man
ufacturers’ Association, “we have no political activ
ities that we talk about for publication.” He men=-
tions, though, that 25 years ago there were only two
or three manufacturers at state political conven=
tions. Now there are 85 to 75,
lowa has CIO Political Action Compmittee proe
grams and AFL Labor League for political pro=
grams, But they haven't been too successful in get
ting or keeping their members in political line, to
follow the international union policies,
JOWA FARM BUREAU LARGEST
Biggest organization, biggest pressure group, big
gest lobby is still the Towa Farm Bureau Federa
tion, with spic and span air-conditioned offices in a
modern skyscraper which it owns.
A few comparative figures give the picture.
Jowa has 3,800 manufacturing establishments,
but it has 200,000 farnys. lowa has 145,000 industrial
workers, but it has 300,000 farm family workers and
hired hands.
CIO unions claim a membership of 50,000, largely
in the packing-house, automobile, farm equipment
&nd electrical industries. AFL claims 30,000 in the
craft wunions, teamsters, printing and building
" trades. There may be another 20,000 or more in the
railroad brotherhoods, independent Machinists un
fon and United Electrical Workers.
Of Towa’s 1,600,000 registered wvoters, the farm
vote is counted as 600,000, plus 400,000 in small
towns of 2,500 and under, where the people vote
with the farnrers. The urban vote makes up the
minority of 600,000. :
Ken Eberhardt, secretary of the state CIO Coun
cil and its director of political action, says the real
center of conservative Republicanism is in the
small towns, and not necessarily on the farms or in
the cities.
So the labor organizations and their political
action committees have a long tough row to hoe
before they even begin to have the influence or
power that they have in the eastern farm beit
states, The international unions aren’t concentrat
ing on organizing lowa, 8o lowa hasn't swung
Democratic, and it isn't going to, in spite of 1948
election results.
Out here, Democratic Senator Guy M. Gillette is
Jooked upon as “still pretty much of a Republican,”
because he bucked Roosevelt and won.
JOWA LAW ENTICES INDUSTRY ;
The test oh llowa’s fundamental conservatism
probably came in the last legislature. It was on a
bill to repeal the state’s so-called Right to Work
law. This law bans the closed shop and secondary
boycott. It also requires that both employe and his
wife, if he has one, must sign an authorization for
check-off of union dues.
Union labor united to defeat this Right to Work
law last year. But the bill to repeal was lost, 53 to
51, in the Jower house, with four state representa
tives not voting.
_ This Right to Work law 55 been used effectively
as an argument for getting new industries to locate
in lowa. As a statement from one manufacturer who
moved his plant to lowa put it:
“We just couldn’t take the labor situation any
longer, . . . We've never had labor trouble before.
But today, in our previous location, you just can’t
avoid it unless you want to pay for a racket. We
decided to move out where unknown racketeers
can’t foist themselves on labor.”
Rodney Q. Selby, director of the lowa Develop
ment Commission, in commenting on the presenta
tions made to business heads to persuade them to
locate in Jowa, emrphasizes that the state doesn’t
want to become highly industrialized. What it wants
- s a balanced economy, with no industrial and agri
cultural sections working at cross purposes.
Tl fight like 2 wild cat until they nail the lid of
a pine box down on me. — Captain Eddie Ricken

Re-Nomination of Paul |
Brown To Congress |
Yesterday at Elberton delegates to the Tenth
District Congressional Convention re-nominated
Congressman Paul Brown as the Democratie candi
date for the National House of Representatives in
the General Election to be held next November.
Delegates to the Convention represented all of
the seventeen counties in the District. Mr. Walter
E. Whitehead of Madison county, who has served as
Chairman of the District Conmittee for several
years, presided and praised the able service of Con
gressman Brown, as did representatives from the
other counties in the District.
Quiet, and unassuming Paul Brown has, by dent
of superior ability and conscientious devotion to
duty, emerged over the years as one of the cut
standing members of the Congress. He has been
particularly interested in financial aid by the gov
ernment to the farmers and as member of the
Committee on Banking and Currency has had a
most imrportant and effective hand in legislation de
signed to serve agriculture and business. ’
Congressman Brown is perhaps more responsible
for power development on the Savannah river than
any other person, the most recent step in that direc
tion having been approval of the Hartwell dam. It
is impossible, of course, to properly estimate the
effect upon the economic welfare of this section !
that will result from the power potentiial on the
Savannah, That Congressman Brown has consist
ently and unflaggingly stuck to his guns in pushing |
this enterprise is one reason for the high esteem in !
which he is held by the people of his District. é
We congratulate Congressman Brown on the type
of service he has rendered. We feel confident that |
he will continue to give his District, and the nation,
the best of his undeniably high ability.
"
Slot Machine Pay-Off
Rep. John B. Bennett (R.-Mich.) has successfully i
froned out the major bugs in the bill which would
prohibit the interstate shipment of slot machines.
The bill got through the Senate without hearings
and with scant attention paid to its contents.
The Senate version of the bill would have opened
the door for prohibiting shipment of all coin-oper
ated devices which are not manufactured for gam
bling purposes. Bennett's version, which has been
approved by the House Interstate Commerce Com
mittee, narrows down the legal definition of a slot
machine to a coin machine which is operated 'with
a drum or wheel and which by its own operation
pays off in cash or property.
Manufacturers of coin vending machines for ciga
rets and pop and makers of purely amusement, non
gambling coin devices are considerably relieved by
the new version. It is expected that the Senate will
okay Bennett's changes and that the bill will get
through this session.
No Two-Copper Tax
Prononents of keeping the two-cent-per-pound
tax off Chilean copper haven’t lost heart in spite of
the fact that the tax automatically went on July 1,
after having been off since before the war. Hearings
on a bill which would suspend the tax for two more
years will be held the middle of this month. They
think they might get suspension passed before this
summer’s adjournment, ;
Meanwhile, prices on all brass and copper pro
ducts appear to be going up. And all Chilean cop
per arriving in the U. S. is being placed in bond,
pending a final decision on the tax, Placing it in
bond adds about one-half cent a pound because of
the extra handling involved. If Congress adjourns,
letting the tax stay, then copper and brass prices
will zoom. And the speculators who have been
hoarding copper scrap will clean up.
No Labor Market For
Reformed Reds
F. Joseph Donohue, the special U. S. attorney
who successfully prosecuted Harry Bridges, has
been trying unsuccessfully ever since the trial to
* get jobs for three of the reformed Commies who
testified against Bridges. Two of them are news
papermen and one is a longshorenran. Donohue
claims that this situation will make it extremely
difficult for Commie cases to get reformed Reds to
testify in similar cases in the future. Former party
members have been key witnesses in all of the re
cent successful cases against Commies.
Donohue claims that there are two reasons why it
is so difficult for these refornred Reds to get jobs.
The loyal Communists spread rumors about them
and interfere all they can in their private lives, and
normal employers are just a little dubious about the
loyalty of the former Conunies.
Should this nation . . ~ be forced to defend her
existence in another world conflagration, our past
industrial miracles must become super-miracles if
we are to survive as a free people on this earth.—
A group of world forces dedicated to the enslave
ment of man opposes our leadership. It appears al
most certain that they propose to resolve this dif
ference by force of arms. — Rear Admiral C. B.
Momsen,
We must recognize that pensions are here to stay.
—William B. Barton, employer-employe relations
director for the U. S. Chamber of Commerce.

The Most Beautiful Thing en Wheels
There’s nothing mysterious about automotive power.
When all the conversation is over and done, what you
want to know is how your car will perform, with your own
Joot on the accelerator—in traffic or on the highway, g \
today, tomorrow and next year. /
Pontiac power plants are deliberately designed and f \ 7
built to give you exactly the kind of power you want, ! /
where you want it—power for flashing pick-up, for eager 2
responsiveness in traffic, for effortless ease on the open
road. The chances are you will never need to use a// the
power your Pontiac has —but ##’s there, more than enough! 9
Put these renowned Pontiac Silver Streak engines to y“u cant a
work with Hydra-Matic Drive and you really have the
perfect performance combination. Nothing could be
easier to drive, nothing could be more fun, nothing
could be more dependable.
You really ought to drive a new Pontiac yourself—its
performance is a very eloquent way of saying, dollar for
dollar you can’t beat a Pontiac!
