THE OBSERVER...
JACQUELINE KENNEDY'S DREAM VISIT to Cambodia had a fa-
iry tale quality that must have surpassed her childhood fantasies.
Only an Eastern potentate, in t his case Prince Sihanouk, could have
conjured up such a royal welcome on short notice.
From the moment she step-
ped from her U.S. .Air Force-5-
C- 54, Princess Jacqueline's
progression through the ancient
kingdom of Khmer was strewn
with roses. There were court •
receptions,diplomatic dinners,
native feasts embellished jvith
countless dancing girls swirl-
ing to the music of flutes,tem-
ple bells, gongs and cymbals.
There were daily champagne
caviar "picnics" in the jungle
shaded glades of Angkor Wat,
the fabled ruins of a vanished
civilization Jackie had come
to see.
She was even priviledged t;o
feed the Royal Elephants, an
honor usually reserved for per-
sonages of lineage equal to
their own. Posed on a balcony
with the awed populace Squat* <
ting at a respectful distance,
she prettily passed out peanuts
to the sacred pachyderms,whose
manners,it must be admitted
left something to be desired.
J ackie had said she hoped to ;
be regarded as just an Ameri- .
can tourist on a private visit
to the site of a girlhood dream.
But his was hardly possible when

union. Probably government
never intended to let itself get
into such a position, but by
authorizing closed-shop con-
tracts and dues checkoff gov-
ernment mousetrapped you in-
to a choiceless predicament.
Nineteen states—authorized
by the Taft-Hartley Act to put
it to a vote--have erased that
mistake. Oklahoma probably
will make it 20.
What this means is that in
states which vote a right-to-
work law, you may belong to
a union if you wish--but no-
body can force you to.
Labor union leaders are vig-
orously opposed to these right-
to-work laws. They protest
that these laws are aimed at
destroying unions, reducing
wages.
Tire fact is that, in most of
the 19 states which have adopted such laws, business is booming
and wages are higher.
Figures from the Department of Labor and the Department of
Commerce confirm that right-to-work states lead the nation in
overall rate of economic growth.
The two states with the fastest increase in the rate of manufact-
uring employment, Arizona and Florida, are right-to-work states.
Seven of the top 10 are right-to-work states.
The percentage of time lost due to labor disputes is only about a
half as great in right-to-work states.
And hear this: wages have increased more in Texas where there is
no compulsory union membership than in Oklahoma v/hich present-
ly enforces union membership.
Obviously, industry7 in the right-to-work states is able to pay
higher wages because of reduced featherbedding and a generally
stimulated economy.
The present right-to-work states contain only 28% of our nation's
population, but they have recently gained 64% in new manufactur-
ing jobs.
Some union spokesmen single out Arkansas as a state with a low
per-capita income despite a right-to-work law. B’lt two factors
contradict this conclusion.
One is that Arkansas, despite that law, has more union members
than Oklahoma (112, 000 to 83, 000).
Also, Arkansas' economy since the right-to-work law was en-
acted has accelerated faster than before.
In summary, the right-to-work states lead the nation in econo-
mic growth, in the creation of new jobs and industry, ih wage im-
provement in industrial jobs, and—by percentage and by actual
dollars—these states produce more new wealth and new\jncome.
More and more union members are beginning to recogniz^ these
advantages. Last year a public opinion poll in Iowa disclosed that< •
59% of tiiat state's union members prefer right-to-work.
There is an increasing awareness, abroad and at home, that the
best climate for the most people to make the most money is a cli-
mate of freedom.

word got out that she had in-
vited former British Ambassa-
dor to the U.S.,and long-time
Kennedy friend, to join her on
the trip. Gossips noted that Mi-
chael Forrestal,eligible New
York bachelor, was also a mem-
ber of her party. The recently-
widowed Harlech firmly den-
ied any romantic implications.
Presumably they're all just
good friends,who happened to
share a childhood dream of
seeing Anghor Wat by moon-
light, and happily took advan-
tage of the opportunity.
Jackie had requested that
reporters and camermen be
barred from the ruins during
her explorations but, at the
last moment, gracioulsy relent-
ed,so a select number were
' admitted. Priceless shots of her
scrambling barefoot in girl-
ish abandon over the 1000 year-
old carvings,were thus recorded
for posterity.
Alas,this fairy tale,like all
fairy tales,had some ominous
moments. Prince Sihanouk him-
self, the otherwise perfect host,
injected a few sour notes that
greatly disturbed the diplo-
mats. Virulently opposed to
the U. S. involvement in Viet-
nam,he kept making invidious
comparisons between the Prin-
cess' late consort,whom he id-
olized as a saint,and the pre-
sent incumbent of the White
House, whom he plainly re-*
gards as a candidate for de-
vildom. Only on terms favor-7
able to Hanoi, he told a press
conference,would he consi-
der resuming diplomatic re-
lations with the United States
And even as the Princess was
flying off to dine with the
King and Queen of Thailand,
he sent messages to Hanoi
wishing the Viet Cong vic-
tory over the Americans in
Vietman.
But all good faiiy stories
have a happy ending, and no
doubt this one will too.
The Observer
Labor, demanding a bigger and bigger voice in government, ev-
entually won control of Britain's government, but in two times at
bat the Laborites have struck out.
Now the shattering devaluation of tire British pound has alerted
many Americans to an increased awareness of tire hazard of too
many eggs in one basket.
In Oklahoma, contemplating a second vote on a right-to-work
law, proponents exude renewed confidence.
Presently, in many states, government forces you to belong to
