Book Solon tells GOP audience Picketing measure opponents plan Senate filibuster . . . Ford Jeppson top administrator Jeppson years ago with the late Lord Thompson, and of the worlds wealthiest and most successful businessmen, in England. The only hope to stop passage of a common situs picketing bill in this session of Congress is to sustain a filibuster and this is that tactic which foes of the labor measure plan to use. Utah Sen. Orrin G. Hatch made this disclosure in Brigham City Tuesday night as he addressed the annual dinner meeting of Box Elder county Republicans in the community center. The senator, pointing to the leanings of top labor department officials, said common situs is expected to move quickly through the US House of Representatives. To sustain a filibuster in the Senate and thus prevent passage there, will require the support of at least 41 senators. This would prevent cloture by the required 60 members. Hatch said we have 35 which means we need six more to sustain the filibuster and if we can do it, we can beat them. The Utah solon opposes common situs picketing because it would allow a single union to shut down a construction project. He contends this would multiply organized labors bargaining power, force workers off the job unnecessarily and result in higher construction costs. The freshman senator is currently on a speaking swing to muster support for opposition to the measure. A critic of Dr. Ray Marshall, new secretary of labor, Hatch said there isnt a single top official in the labor department who has a free enterprise point of view. Pointing to the value of the union movement which helped this country avoid rich and poor gravitation to two classes and citing his own background which saw him become a journeyman metal lather (with union affiliation), the speaker declared that big labor people now are doing much to kill this country. He made reference to a talk he had two Speaking pro-lab- (Continued from Page 1) principal of that school. In November 1959 he became principal at Bear River Junior High school and has continued there since. ' The award recipient is active in the LDS church, having served as a ward bishop and counselor. While he was principal at McKinley, the first elementary school library in Box Elder district was started. Initial funding was derived from the now traditional Halloween carnival. Jeppson has served as president of the Box Elder Education association and served on the association salary committee for a number of years. He also served as president of the Box Elder Principals association and was chairman of the UEA salary committee. He also has received the Utah State University Alumni association Merit citation. He married the former Marcella Thompson in 1940. They have three children, all USU graduates. My teaching has brought me many years of happiness and satisfaction, many good friends, teachers, parents, students and memories I will cherish for years to come, he said in retrospect. Jeppson plans to retire from education during the coming year. . ' of Britains economic and social woes, he quoted Lord Thompson as saying, You Americans are even more stupid because you have our bad example to follow and yet you continue on the same path weve taken. He was a champion of free enterprise and considered Utah to be a bastion of this concept, Senator Hatch stated. There are leaders in government who advocate central management of the economy. They support such things as the s full employment bill Humphry-Hawkinwhich would cost an estimated $40 billion annually and national health care at a cost of $80 billion more. They want to take care of everyone from the cradle to the grave. This country cant take that kind of irresponsible spending, Hatch declared. The speaker hit at other priorities of government labor officials, including reprovision, colpeal of the lective bargaining and compulsory arbitration in the public sector and $3 minimum wage which would kill small business in Utah and elsewhere. He advised that citizens get involved by comk joining the National mittee. He made reference also to the federal bureaucracy which actually runs this country, a need to deregulate gas and oil prices and the lack of press given to the Republicans proposed economic stimulus package. Senator Hatch also lamented White House action in .wanting to cut water projects, including the Central Utah project, and urged his listeners to spend that $3 and call the White House and let them know how you feel about these water projects. right-to-wor- k Right-to-Wor- Spring cleanup Chat dates announced From the Brigham City library Its spring cleanup time again in Brigham City with local residents invited to begin piling refuse at street-sid- e any time BOOK REVIEWS YOUNG ADULT BOOKS: Pimms cup for everybody by Paige Dixon (Anthenum, 1976).
