Our regular Washington columnist, Mr. L. Brent Bozell, is taking a short leave of absence, during which time Mr. Minot has agreed to act as his substitute.
The defeat of the Knowland amendments to a Labor-supported bill regulating union welfare funds, is a clear-cut demonstration that the AFL-CIO has dictatorial powers over the Senate of the United States. If Republican strategists, usually maladroit in their public relations, do not fumble the ball completely, the victory may turn out to be Pyrrhic. For Americans do not like to see raw power so openly subverting the legislative process.
