When April 11 was chosen start ing date for senate committee hear ings on Wagner amendments, labor peace talks wete in full bloom. But so strong are the workingman's feelings about the proposed changes that many a peace advocate thought hearings might have been delayed until labor's warring factions either make up or draw swords. To amend the Wagner act, congress can pick from four sets of proposals, all opposed by C I O , three of them submitted by coherent factions with special interests: (1) By Massachusetts' Sen. David I. Walsh, obviously favored by A. F. of L, which opposes all other proposals. Curtail the national labor relations board's power to invalidate union contracts; require NLRB elections by craft rather than by in- dustrial units; permit employer petitions for elections; permit appeals in representation cases.

Burke, and supported by die poNational Associa tent, strike-wearturn of Manufacturers: Require Uiat NLRB have representative from la bor, management and the public; outlaw deduction of union dues from pay envelopes; outlaw coercion by either employers or unions; establish code of unfair labor pruc tices for unions as well as cm plovers; forbid strikes unless a majority of employees approve; require all union ollicials to be U. S. citizens, permit transfer of unfair la bor practice charges from NLRB to federal district court (3) By Oregon's Sen. Rufus Hoi man To split NLRB's duties. Ad ministrative and investigatory power would be vested in a labor relations commissioner. Final decisions would be made by a labor appeals board. (4) By Kentucky's Sen. M. M.

President Roosevelt's own Groton and Harvard shaped him, and he is at home in four or five clubs that insist on looking up candidates in the Doomsday book of the Revolution of 76. His church, naturally, is the Episcopal church, and his home now is understandably in historic Maryland, where two sons are no doubt also preparing for Groton.
