Being the legal questions of call¬
ing a bond election tor the con¬
struction of a school building to
serve the Nacoochee area. Of
course, it is presumed this will be
a county wide election.
Since Federal Judge Hooper
handed down his ruliug on the
Atlanta school question most ob¬
servers of the line drawing ques¬
tion for pupils to be placed in
designated schools think that the
hot issue will not be brought up
again,—for the Board to go on
locoid to do so would definately
place Bean Creek with Nacoochee
School.
At a call meeting July 24 the
question arose as to the individ
ual member voting to hire three
high school teachers for Nacoo¬
chee School above what the ADA
law specifies in the June meeting
and to clarify that vote a new
motion was made. Those voting

of course, that men and women would be

it does matter a great deal as to whether
the reader, through the medium of the
editorial, gives consideration and tnought
to tbe subject at hand* If he strongly
opposes a newspaper’s opinion, it is all
for tbs best since it indicates that he has

Landrum Labor Reform Bill
Ready For House Actiou
Congressman Pail Landrum announces
th*^ the Education and Labor Committee
t.f the House of Representatives, of which
he Is vice chairman, reported out a labor
reform bill last week It is anticipated
that the bill will reach the floor of the
House for final action within the next
few days.
The bill is compo'ed of seven sections
which provide for ( 1 ) a bill of rights for
union members ( 2 ) a teporting aud dip
closure of union financial statements (3)
rule* govering union trust- esltips over
subordinate unione (4) roles governing
union elections (5J safeguards for labor
organizations and fiduciary responsibili¬
ties for union agents ( 6 ) miscellaneous
provisions and ( 7 ] amendments to the
Labor.Management Helatljns Act of 1 9 17
The purpose of the bill is to prevent
abuses to aaok aud (tile union members
and to g ve all members a voice in union
affairs' Recent investigations into the
practices and policies of various unions
and union officials show 'an urgent need
for corrective liegislation to the public
and|the union tpepiber fiotp these abuse?.
The bill as reported from !])e Bducatioh
and Labor commitfee 'S a somewhat
weakened version of the |reeently passed
Kennedy-Ervin Bill in the Senate.
In discveciug "the reported bill, Con¬
gressman Landrum had this to gay; ‘‘The
American people are demanding that
legislasion be enacted to correct the tbe
widespiead abuses of some labor union
officials, A few of the many abssea and
forms of corruption uncovered by the
House and Menate labor committees areas
follows; some union officers have ap
propriated union money to their ow.t per¬
sonal use) union members have been
denied the right to nominate and rolo for
officets of their own choice) many unione
are becoming dominated by gangsters)
many small bu'ineesmen hare been |fnrc
eil into bankruptcy by toe ute of illegal
diol.ets and boycotts and many others
have been coerced into recognizing a
union as the representative of his em¬
ployees in order to avoic itbe conqueccee
of illegal picketing and boycotts, even
though the employees did not wish to
join that particular union; and in one
case three union membere in California
ware expelled from their union on charges
of conduct unbecoming a union member
because they had supported Ihe right to
work law in that etate against the wishes
of union officials.
•‘This disregard ot the basic ^and inher¬
ent rights of American citizens, union
membtrs and small businessmen must be
halted, Unfortunately, ]the bill ae re¬

WOMEN ARE WINNING WAP.
OF THE SEXES
By PHYLLIS BATTELLE
Hearst Headline Special to
The Baltimore American
The American woman today is ac
sccuaed of literally squeezing the
virility out of the American male. Not
with hugs of affection. But with
shrewd, businesslike maneuvering.
He still has the thicker neck, the
harder muscles and the majority of
the skilled jobs.
But she has more stamina, more
stocks, more property and more power,
Some of her assets came from God,
from her father, her husband or her
ingenuity; but whoever the donor, she
is making the most of it.
* * *
It would be difficult to find a doctor,
anthropologist, Wall Street or census
statistician to deny that the woman in
America is currently the “stronger
sex,” It has physically not made and her financially. happier
a sex.
Psychiatrists, like the her famed sharp Dr,
Karl Menninger, claim up¬
surge in fame and fortune has given
her a complex of neuroses never en¬
tertained by meeker, milder ancestors.
He says “most” American women are
“sexually the frustrated” in and the “incapable, face of
new female power,
wholly or partly, to deal with life’s
problems.” the sympathy in this
But most of
near-matriarchal country goes out to
the men, who allegedly are working
fiercely, dying young and losing their
identities as males in a vain attempt
to “Fathers keep ambitious women happy. and
strain themselves
work their guts out, says Pearl Buck,
student of international cultures, “to
furnish expensive educations for their
daughters, happier which without—not the daughters only happier might
be
but better women — because they
womd be contented women.”
While the American girl wonders
what struck her (what hath emancipa¬
tion and push-buttons wrought?),
current historians contemplate the fu¬
ture of the outnumbered and appar¬
ently outmaneuvered American male.
Is tbe gradually declining into a role
of half-homemaker, half-drone?

And what of the children ? Are they
being smothered by their insecure
over-possessive mothers into possible
homosexuality (which is on the in¬
crease) ?
Or are they being dismissed into a
danger of delinquency (also increas¬
ing) by mothers ? with careers in the
“new era”
Consider first a collection of hard,
plain statistics behavior that help students of
human form their opinions.
—Back in 1930 men in America out¬
numbered women by about 1,500,000
Today that ratio is almost exactly re¬
versed. The U. S. Census Bureau pre¬
dicts that by 1975 women will hold a
lead in sheer numbers of 3,600,000.
—American females outlive Ameri¬
can males by more than six years. In
1900, they outlived men by only two
years, 10 months.
—Almost every disease kills more
men than women. (Exceptions: child¬
birth, cancer of the breast.) In the
fast-moving five times mid-20th century, almost
as many men as women die
of ulcers caused, partially at least,
from tension. Three times as many
men commit suicide successfully.
(More women attempt suicide but are
either inept or insecure enough to
bungle it.)
—As well as raising families, Amer¬
ican women comprise one-third of the
total labor force in this country.
Nearly 13,000,000 married women and
9,000,000 single girls work.
—American women are the pluto¬
crats of the world. The biggest earn¬
ers, biggest stockholders, biggest
spenders. They own 70 per cent of the
nation’s private wealth, two-thirds of
all privately-owned government bonds,
and stocks worth about $100 billion.
They cial control 70 per cent of the finan¬
estates, 48 per cent of railway
and utility holdings, 66 per cent of
the country’s mutual savings accounts
—and, being pioneering gamblers at
heart—most of the nation’s best thor¬
oughbred r—JYuaiSfl race horses.
