realize that there are millions of
working men who are capable of
understanding that enforcement of
the union shop provision means
tighter bands upon their wrists
without any compensation what-
soever.
It doesn’t help them win a strike;
it doesn’t strengthen their hands in
an arbitration meeting; it doesn’t
give them any greater control of
the Fair Deal than their masters
Truman’s outspoken
opposition to the Taft-Hartley law
reportedly cost him a great num-
ber of lavor votes in 1948. Those
members of unions who had read
the law were quick to see that it
returned to them much of the
freedom of which the Wagner act
had deprived them. But the Fair
Deal didn’t seem to “catch the
drift,” and now doesn’t seem to

It is difficult to understand why
several million grown-up men who
have lived in a free country can
allow a few politically-minded la-
bor leaders to place their personal
liberty in jeopardy.
Let us say that 90 percent of the
steel workers are members of the
union and 10 percent are not. If
the 10 percent are compelled
against their wills to become mem-
bers of Murray’s oligarchy, it will
to all intents and purpose strength-
en that man’s control over all the
members by about 100 percent. In
other words, he will be their su-
preme master.
Don’t these men like freedom ?
Don’t they want to be able to quit
a union if they wish and go into
another union, or to work without
joining any union? Why do they
want a master ? Murray didn’t
I “master” anyone in Scotland where
he came from. The Scots are too
smart to let themselves in foi’
that sort of servitude. Maybe he
figured we were dumb. Maybe he
was right.

It seems the favorite words in June are “I Do.”
before the month is over, some 185,000 couples
will have said them ... and set up households of
their own.
Today’s bride has more help than evenbefore in
making a house a home! Flick a switch, click a
button—and there’s power aplenty to lighten every
task!
Electricity helps with the washing and ironing
... cleans the rugs, protects the food. Does all this
and much, much more—and does it at such low
cost that even a “newlywed” budget finds the bill
painless! In fact, all the comfort, convenience and
pleasure that electric service brings you and your
family cost only a few cents a day!
The skill and efficiency of your friends and
neighbors who work for CPL—together with sound
business management—have made this bargain
possible!
Ido’!

of the plants from sprouting again.
The chemical “bombing” of the
brush not only knocks out the mes-
quite, but many other range pests
such as the cocklebur and sunflow-
ers. The treatment can be admin-
istered while cattie and other live-
stock are grazing the land. The
chemical has no harmful effect
on either the cattle or the native
grasses upon which they graze.
Care must be exercised in the ap-
plication of the chemical, however,
for even in trace amounts it will
damage highly susceptable crops
such as cotton, alfalfa, clover,
grapes, tomatoes and many others.
Fisher, with the assistance of his
staff conducted hundreds and hun-
dreds of experiments in his long
. x^&xxv <aS<axiii3b mesquite orusn oe-
fore the method of airplane con-
trol with 2,4,5-T was perfected.
Threefold benefits result from
the solution to this problem pe-
culiar to the ranges of Texas:
1. It is much easier to handle
and care for livestock in cleared
areas.
2. Improved growth of native
grasses helps to rebuild the soil
and aids in conservation.
3. Cleared areas afford better
grazing. During the past three
years in experiments conducted at
Spur, steers gained 28 per cent
more weight on cleared pastures
than in brush pastures.
The selection of the Hoblitzelle
award winner was made by a com-
mittee from outstanding Texas
educators and agriculturists. The
Committee was composed of Lewis
P. Merrill, Regional Conservator,
Soil Conservation Service, Fort
Worth, Texas; Dr. R. J. Williams,
Professor of Chemistry, University
of Texas, Austin, Texas. Dr. R. D.
Lewis, Director, Texas Agricultur-
al Experiment Station, Texas A&M
College, College Station, Texas;
and Dr. D. M. ^Wiggins, President,
Texas Technological College, Lub-
bock, Texas.
Mesquite Control Effort
Wins $5,000Cash Medal
Renner, Tex., May 21. — The
tough and aggressive mesquite in-
fests more than 55 million acres
of rangeland in 113 Texas coun-
ties, removing each year from the
grazing of livestock millions of dol-
lars of potential profits.
Today 14 years of research in an
effort to control this hardy mem-
ber of the Mimosa family paid off
handsomely for a young Texas
scientist.
Charles E. Fisher, 41, Superin-
tendent of Texas Agricultural Ex-
periment Station Substation No. 7
at Spur, was named winner of the
Hoblitzelle award recognizing him
as the “Texas agricultural ‘scient-
ist who in the past three* years
has made the greatest contribution
to agriculture in the State”. Con-jfi&ht against mesquite brush Re-
sisting of $5,000.00 in cash and a
gold medal, the award was pre-
sented at the annual open house
of Texas Research Foundation
here.
Fisher’s research resulted last
year in the control of mesquite
on more than 400 thousand acres
of Texas pasture. The control
method is simple: A low flying
airplane “bombs” the mesquite
trees with coarse droplets of an
oil-water emulsion loaded with a
new chemical herbicide. Flying just
above the tree tops, the pilot
sprays a wide swath of mesquite
as he goes. One pound of the hor-
mone-type chemical, 2,4,5-T, is
recommended per acre. Cost of
treating: About $3.00 per acre.
The panel of judges in selecting
the work on mesquite control over
that of thirty other Texas agri-
cultural scientists whose research
had been entered, pointed out:
“No absolute method for the fin-
al eradication of mesquite has been
perfected, but the research of C.
E. Fisher provides new hope to
the farmer and rancher of Texas
and the Southwest through the
provision of an economic and ef-
fective means of controlling the
brush. His research has immedi-
ate and significant,widespread ap-
plication.”
Fisher’s control method not only
kills about 98 per cent of the mes-
quite to ground level, but invades
its bud zone area below ground
and prevents a high percentage

already seem to enjoy.
But it does do away with just
that much potential opposition to
the arbitrary—and oft misused—
power over their lives which the
arrogant labor leaders now exer-
cise.
The Taft-Hartley law was adopt-
ed when these leaders became
alarmingly presumptuous. But they
don’t seem to have grasped the
import of the hint.
