They Know Their Minds
Receht peneral elections have es-
tablished well that labor union mem*
bers tend to follow their own dictates
in politics,
It shouldn’t have to be stated that
they are just like anybody else in this
country-*—with the same range of prob-
lems, the same broad interests. They
think of themselves as whole men, not
just as union members.
They wear their union buttons
proudly, but not as shields of isolation
from the rest of American society.
Analysis shows that from 35 to 40
per cent of the nation’s union mem-
bers voted for President Eisenhower
•in 1952 and 1956. They did this
afgainst the advice of most of their
leaders. They made up their own
minds, on the basis of what they read
and saw of the candidates and the is-
sues.
These millions of workers can
hardly be flattered at the estimate re-
cently put upon them by Harold Han-
over, president of the New York State
oAFL-CTO. His words on the matter:
"Where union members in any siz-
able proportion go contrary to labor’s
program, certainly it is because they
do not know or don’t understand the
issues.
"They have been misled by what
they have read and most of all be-
cause the workers have not been prop-
erly briefed on our program by their
leaders.”
There is a mangnificent assurance
of rightness about this attitude which
few of us in any walk of life would
dare to match. Would that we could
all be so confident.
The flat assumption contained in
that statement is that anybody who
knows what labor is driving at will
automatically do what the leaders ask.
Not many Americans, workers or
whatever, accept uncritically the ad-
vice of union leaders, business mana-
gers, or anybody else when it comes
to deciding whose program or candi-
date to approve. They do their own
thinking.
And it is highly unlikely that in
making up their minds they are any
more misled by the things they might
read, as Hanover suggests, than by
some of the things they may hear from
■ -certain union leaders.
When union m e n go contrary to
leaders’ advice, we have at least to
entertain the possibility that they
know exactly what they are doing.
Their record of independent behavior
is pretty solid in this country.
The Literary Guidepost
By W. C. Rogers
Do you keep an eye on the book bargains?
Once in a while there's something besides
a western or a mystery for 25 cents, as the
jacket says, but from 35 .cents to 75 cents or
?1 you have a fi'nfe choice of not just summer-
time reading- but work that aspiles to be lit-
erature.
“New World Writing” (Mentor --.New
Library, 75 cents) winds up, I am sorry to
say, its 7 1-2 years with issue No. 15. Let
some one else do the job of finding new, dif-
ferent and promising writing, its eidtors have
decided.' While I hope some one else will,
this paperbound publication ends its influen-
tial career with an exceptionally good issue.
Its poetry — though there is a Ciardi trans-
lation from Dante—Ijas never been so indi-
vidual as its prose, which this time is signed
by such names as Henri Michaux, Erskine
Caldwell and the one writer most frequently
published these days, Boris Pasternak: II
Tratti di Appelle,” a story. For this con-
cluding number there are a couple of special-
ly relevant contributions: Caldwell’s “How
to Live Like an Author;’ “The Author and
his Editor,” by Geoffrey Wagner; and “A
Brief History of a Little Magazine and Oth-
er Matters,’ by Reed Whittemore, of the de-
funct FuriosQ.
Pasternak has a whole paper-back devot-
ed to his autobiography, “Safe Conduct”
(Signet-New American Library, 5(Tcents) and
along with it some poems and stories.
Another Russian, *i-ftussian Vladimir Na-
hokov, author of “Ixrlita,” is represented
(Avan, 35 cents) by a reprint of his novel
“Pnin,” about a scholars life in an American
college. -— . „ -..............
Evergreen Review, Vol. 2, No. 8 (Grove,
51) has still more Pasternav, a poem. Ice-
floe,’ and also poems by E. E. Cummings.
Allen Ginsberg. Robert Lowell and James
Merrill. In particular its lead number is a
short story, “Swineherd,” by, A-nothony C.
West, an Irishman living now in Wales, a
work With a grand exuberance of spirit and
speech and, above all, sex; it’s n rare piece.
Also besides a contribution by Jack Kerouac,
there are articles on theater, jazz, Camus
and Paris. This review contains the most
adventurous collection of writing you can
find cn the stands today.
Bible Word* for Today
JAMES 2:1—‘‘My brethren, have not the
faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of
glory, with respect of persons.” (KJV).

James is saying, “Do not show partial-
ity.”
Jesus had no favorites, but respected hu-
man personality wherever he found it. The
disciples were amazed that Jesus was kind
and considerate of the woman of Samaria
who came to Jacob’s well.
It continues to be true in these present
times that God does not show partiality to
1 ace. face, place, or taste, though the race
be Caucasian, the face white, the place Amer-
ica. and the taste refined.
While pausing for a few minutes at the
Good Samaritan Inn between Jerusalem and
Jericho, a message came to me. “I must have
compassion; I must show mercy; and I must
bind up wounds.’’ - 1

Washington, t-P —Whatever
degree of friendship exists be-
tween the United Statfes and
Latin-American nations, espe-
cially Mexico, can be credited
in some measure to Texas and
New Mexico congressmen.
Since the time when the late
President Franklin D. Roose-
velt pronounced the Good
Neighbor Policy the role of
lawmakers from these two
states has been increasingly
significant.
This spring at an interpar-
limentary conference of t h e
Latin-American states ' held in
Lima, Peru, one of the U. S.
delegates was Rep. Joe Mon-
toya (D~NM),
midst of a 10-week refresher
course in Spanish.
They are Reps. Joe Kilgore
of McAllen, whose district runs
I experiences in Lima, said:
“These and other incidents

Washington,' (NEA) — Firsthand experience sun seems
to be the best teacher in convincing new governments on the|
dangers of international communism.
The United States itself had to learn this lesson the hartll
Way_in Germany after the war, and in Chinu, Greece, KoreaJ
Indo-Uhina and Hungary—do name just‘a few. ,
Since the crises in . those countries, the United States ha-i
been trying to tell the world the facts of Communist life. A main
theme of the neat Voice of America, crying in the wilderness!
has been to convince free nations that they .can’t do htlsines-j
with communism. It hasn't tuken too well. It can t be taught. I|
(has to he learned.
That is what happened to Tito in Yugoslavia. ( l^ser at
home, it happened in Guirtemaiu. Currently, the Egyptians un-
der President Nasser, and the Indonesians under president Su
karnp, are in the process, of revising their former softness to-
ward communism. >*<n„ , «
The two newest revolutionists on the international scene .
General Kassem -i# Iraq and Premier Castro iiv (‘tiUB—st-i-11.....have
their lesson to learn in the hard-knocks school.
But of all the leaders in new nations who have come to
realize the menace of the Communist conspiracy, the outstand-
ing example today seyns to he Prime Minister Nehru of India,
ently wme him up was the shock of the Chinese
Communist take-over of his northern neighbor, Tibet.
fiver since he became prime minister in 11147, Nehru has
been lecturing to the world on the fine example of 2,000 year-
of friendship.between India and ( hina.
Then, with China's Communist Premier Chou F„n-lai, oi$
June 25, 1054, Nehru proclaimed the famous five principles
mutual respect for territorial integrity, nonaggression, nonin.
terference, peaceful cocxistequality and mutual benefit.
It took the Chinese Uo item uniats a little less than five years to
break those principles.
There have been reports of protests all over India. In Bom-
bay, Mao-Ts'e-tung's picture was bombarded with ripe tomatoes.
Nehru was r.ot displeased,. The Dalai Lama ha> been given sane-
I tuaiy in India. A committee on Tibetan relief has been formed.
On a day when Nehru was absent from his capital, the ( hi-
Communist Embassy it) New Delhi issued a statement blatn-
the Tibetan crisis on Indian imperialism, ami criticizing
Nehru. The Indian Congress had a field day condemning the
statement.
When Nehru returned and tried to bring his Congress unde^
I control, he got no applause—for a first time.
