After another session of back

ing most of the backing, the latest
attempt by the Administration to
reach an agreement on revising
the Taft-Hartley Act collapsed in
Washington.
The 15-man advisory commit
tee broke up when members rep
resenting industry balked at
formal voting on specific proposals
for changing the law. They were
willing to swap views with the
labor and public representatives,
they said, but not to submerge
their individual views in majority
votes of a committee whose mem
bers represent diverse interests.
Secretary Durkin, who at the
suggestion of the President named
the advisory group of five repre
sentatives each from labor, man
agement and the public, said fur

Poor Showing . . .
Dear Editor:

Sunday Activities . . .
Dear Editor:
Your editorial of March 6 "What
Can You Do Or. Sunday," seems
foolish and childish; something
further should be considered.
The question of whether or not
students at a "progressive Unr
versity" believe in Sunday actiV'
ities which you mentioned is a
loaded question. It infers that
those who do not believe in such
diversions are not progressive
When you mention that restric
tions seem "a little 19th-century"
you must realize that people of
the 20th-century might benefit
by following some of the morals
of the 19th Century.
We personally believe that most
of the activities which you men
tioned are not appropriate for the
Lord's Day, but we suggest that
when there are questions of the
propriety or desirability of an ac
tivity on Sunday, that the inter
ested parties honestly ask them
selves, as Christians, if the Lord
would approve of or enter into
such an activity. This is not a
matter of progress, but of ethics
and morals.
least one more year, Secretary of
Agriculture Benson decided under
pressure of whimpering dairy interests.
Whether he wanted to continue
being for butter buyer, he almost
had to if he is to be consistent.
It is important to be consistent
in economics as in any other
branch of sociology. Dairymen
are paying support prices for feed
and it goes on down the line in
the farming business.
The U. S. economy is based on
agriculture. If the bottom drops
out of the farming business, it
soon tails out of every other in
dustry. Apparently it is a very
good thing, then, to see that the
farmers realize a large figure in
their bank books every year.
But, while the farmer makes
big money, the rest of the coun
try pays big money for less than I

As a movie, "City Beneath the

are few. You only have a day left
in which to see 'this stormy ad
venture, and I wouldn't worry
about it if I missed the movie.
Robert Ryan, Mala Powers and
Anthony Ouinn star in this tale
of trumped-up danger. The story
of the movie involves Ryan and
Quinn, who are deep sea diven.
They come to Jamaica to reclaim
a million dollars In gold i"ullion
lost aboard a sunken ship.
This movie is infested w?th vil
lians. The steamship company
depresentative in Jamaica is try
ing to reclaim the gold not for
the company. The captain of the
ship who ii supposed to be dead
is trying to reclaim the gold.
Ryan's partner also is lured by
the million dollars in gold.
All this time Ryan is becoming
involved with the movies ingenue,

So Ryan comes up and gets his

In case this whole description

What is actually happening is
that the nation is rapidly becom
