LABOR LEADER ATTACKS
PAST GOP LEGISLATIO
By STEVE JONDON
Junior Staff Writer
The most detrimental legislation
against the AFL-CIO has been introduced
by the Republican party, according to
state AFL-CIO president Richard Nisley.
At the final meeting of the Young Re
publicans, club members and visitors,
such as the speaker of the Nebraska Leg
islature and a representative from the Na
tional Farmers Organization, listened to
Nisley speak on the political side of the
labor union.
The non-partisan political arm of the
AFL-CIO is the National Committee on
Political Education (COPE), Nisely said,
and it recommends candidates to union
members.
Organized to encourage voting and
citizenship among union members, COPE
bases its choices on records and platforms
of the candidates, he said.
"Candidates for president and vice
president are recommended by the Gen
eral Board of AFL-CIO," Nisley said.
"COPE recommends on the local and
state level."
"COPE is not a political party," he
said. "It supports candidates regardless of
political affiliation. COPE provides union
members with facts about issues."
COPE is supported by voluntary con
tributions, Nisley said.
Its aim is to "maintain prosperity, se
curity and better education" Nisley said,
. and it "works with other citizens who
share a concern for programs affecting
the national welfare."
Speaking directly to Republicans, Nis
ley said, "We have not divorced the Re
publican party; they divorced us."
"We ought to have a broader outlook
in the Republican party," he said. "You
are losing the support of farmers and
labor, who used to be your friends."
Nisley cited instances of how union
representatives have been refused an op
portunity to speak and set down labor's
views.
"We have common ground with the
Republican party," Nisley said, "but two
of the most detrimental bills to labor's
aims have been introduced by the Repub
lican party."
Nisley said later. "I've seen cases of
to Work" law guarantees no rights what
soever, and is a "tool used by manage
ment." "In the 19 right to work states," he
said, "wages are the lowest."
In response to questions, Nisley gave
some of the union's policies.
"The AFL-CIO supports the poverty
program and aid to education," Nisley
said. "It's better to have government plan
ning than to have poverty, illiteracy and
unemployment
"When you have these unhealthy ele
ments," he said, "communism can move
in."
On the subject of teachers in labor
unions, Nisley asked, "Is it right that the
teacher has nothing to say about hours
and wages?"
There are only 16 teachers in unions in
Nebraska, he said, but teaching unions are
successful in selected areas.
"You've got slave labor in Nebraska,"
Nisley said later. "I've seen cases of
12-13 hours a day at 60-70 cents per hour,
and the legislature is reluctant to look at
it."
The state also needs a broader Income
tax, Nisley said.
"The most aggressive tax is a sales
tax," he said, because it taxes regardless
of Income.
sponsible for several new
programs in the area of La
tin American studies.
"Dr. Esquenazi played an
important part in the initia
tion of the exchange pro
gram between the Universi
ty and El Colegio de Mexico
under which suuperior stu
dents in Spanish are eligi
ble to spend their junior
year studying in Mexico
City under a State Depart
ment grant.
"He has also established
the field of Latin American
Studies at the Upiversily
and serves as the director.
Under this new program
students are eligible to con
centrate their study in La
tin American history, poli
tics, geography and the stu
dy of the language.
"This past semester Dr.
Esquenazi served as faculty
advisor for the All Univer
sity Fund."
"However, perhaps the
main reason that he should
be selected to receive the
Outstanding Nebraskan
award, is that be is truly
outstanding in his field and
in his profession as a teach
er. "Dr. Esquenazi is always
willing to console students
and take time from his busy
schedule to help them. He
is known as a "hard" teach
er and he is. Students who
have taken a course under
him can testify to the fact
that 'they have indeed
learned something.
"I feel the Daily Nebras
kan would do well to add the
name of Dr. Roberto-Esque-nazi-Mayo
to the list of Out
standing Nebraskans," the
letter concluded.
Copple
The letter nominating Cop
ple referred to him as "an
intelligent man and a man
who helped the University
School of Journalism be
come one of the better
schools in the country to
day." The letter said that Cop
pie's Idea for starting the
Depth Reporting class has
"brought distinction to the
University, since this idea is
being utilized In other
schools throughout the coun
try." "Mr. Copple is an instruc
tor who demands near-perfection
from his students,
and usually manages to get
it," according to the letter.
"He makes students work
and work hard, but as a re
sult they learn, they become
better journalists for th
work, and they are much
happier when they have ac
complished the desired re
sults." Copple has served as ad
visor to the Daily Nebras
kan, but "has enough
respect for the ability of the
staff to allow them to make
the major decisions for the
paper. He realizes that on
ly through taking responsi
bility will students learn to
stand on their own feet."
"A major figure at the
School of Journalism, Mr.
Copple stands as a man
who knows his business and
has the ability to impart
this knowledge to his stu
dents," according to the let
ter. He is the author of a book
on the history of Lincoln,
which he compiled for t h e
Lincoln Centennial in 1959.
"This work no small job,
demonstrates the effort Mr.
Copple puts into any job he
begins," the letter said.
The letter concluded that
Copple "deserves such an
award, as any of his stu
dents will testify."
Miss Skinner
In the letter nominating
Joanie Skinner for Outstand
ing Nebraskan, she was
cited as having "outstand
ing ability to organize and
lead groups, unequaled loy
alty to her campus and her
state and devotion to t h e
interests of others."
"Joanie combines scholar
ship and leadership in acti
vities with a true under
standing of people and
campus, local and national
problems and is a true
friend to anyone who comes
in contact with her.
"Joanie has served the
campus as vice-president of
AWS, president of Ag Union,
vice-president of Alpha Chi
Omega and president of
Mortar Board. Her honors
include Miss Sadie Hawkins,
Varsity Dairy Princess,
Homecoming Attendant and
finalist for Ideal Nebraska
Coed.
"She has been active in
4-H work for ten years and
was paid the highest nation
al honor that can go to a
4-H club member from the
American Institute of Co
operation. She served as co
chairman of the youth pro
gram at the 36th annual AIC
meeting at Michigan State.
