Among the many services he has performed in connec-tion with the school was a period when he functioned as advisor and dean' for, the houseparents and boys of the farm homes, handling prob-lems of discipline and other-wise gaining valuable first-hand knowledge of the school's basic aim—the edu-cation and guidance of boys.

He is an elder of Derry Presbyterian Church, former-ly served as president of the church's Board of Trustees, Nation's Need: Cooperation A real need for a labor bill not afflicted with anemia, and the urgent necessity for cooperation in the labor-management-capital picture in the United States, were voiced with underscoring emphasis by President Eisenhower at a recent press conference. The President was queried on whether he thought the Congress should go home this year without passing "a real labor reform bill." "I most certainly do not," Mr. Eisenhower replied. He continued: "You know, I am disturbed by what seems to be be-coming habit in this country to adopt certain theories that Marx advanced." One of these, he said, is that "a bitter and implac-able warfare" between the man who works and the man who hires him is inevitable. "To my mind, this is absolutely and completely un- American," the President said. "It is not the way a free country must work. "Every last workman, down to the lowliest, the most Menial task you can think of, is just as important as any manager or any capitalist that invests in a com-pany. - "We have got to talk about cooperation—how do labor and management and capital cooperate to produce the wealth that this country needs. That is what we mean by an expanding economy." • The labor reform legislation, Mr. Eisenhower told the press corps and the nation, is aimed at protecting the man who works with his hands to help create the nation's wealth. • "This is not any kind of punitive law," he pointed out, adding that "Senator McClellan himself put in a bill of rights." This "workingman's bill of rights" had the Presi-dent's support, and he said he was sorry to see it water-ed down, as it was designed to protect the laborer from. racketeering practices — practices on the part of a few men in the labor field. Mr. Eisenhower said: "I would certainly like to see American thinking to be directed toward 177 mil-libri people that are trying to get ahead, and not with some internecine warfare that is useless and futile and destructive."
