Anti-US Propaganda Flows At ILO, Representative Says
The International Labor Organization is characterized by steady flow of communistic and socialistic propaganda, Frank H. Terrell, Kansas City, Mo. attorney, told about 150 students and faculty members yesterday in Green Hall.
Mr. Terrell, a 1920 KU graduate and one of four U. S. delegates to the ILO conference in Geneva in June, explained that the ILO covers social and economic aspects of labor.
It was formed in 1919 in connection with the League of Nations and became a specialized agency of the United Nations in 1945. Seventy nations are members.
"Vicious propaganda" was directed at the U. S. by communistic and socialist delegates throughout the conference, Mr. Terrell said.
"While we knew it was false,
representatives from other countries were inclined to believe the propaganda after hearing it and seeing it in print everyday." he added.
The propagandists said U. S. labor is marked with slavery and forced exploitation of foreigners, Mr. Terrell said. They also lauded the ideal working conditions in Russia.
"What disturbs me most is how nations gathering together who believe in socialism, communism or democracy can form laws to apply in equal force to all countries," Mr. Terrell said. "To me, it is impossible."
After being passed at the ILO conference, conventions are sent to countries for ratification. Since the U. S. has ratified only 7 of entering the organization in 1934, 103 conventions passed at the international conferences.
