FARM INDUSTRIAL
BOARD GETS FUNDS
FROM MOTOR TAXES
Commission Voted 100000 By Lib
eral House of Representatives.

Jackson, Miss, April 5.-The most
liberal attitude of the present session
of the present legislature was evil
denced yesterday by the House of
Representatives in passing the Con-
ner bill appropriating $205,202.38 for
the promotion of the work of the
newly created Mississippi Industrial
and Agricultural Commission. The
authorized revenue will be derived
from the motor vehicle tax receipts.
The bill creating the commission was
introduced also by Mr.. Conner.
An amendment by the appropria-
tions committee cutting the amount
of the appropriation to $4,000, was
tabled by vote of 43 yeas to 38
nays on Mr.. Corners motion.
Speaker. Conner took the floor in
behalf of the measure, asserting the
APPROPRIATION was one which truly
is in the interests of the people in
that it means the promoting of the
material welfare of the state, par
ticularly the upbuilding of the agri-
cultural resources and providing of
better marketing conditions for agri-
cultural products.
Dennis Murphree, of Calhoun
county, candidate for lieutenant gov
ernor, also took the floor in advoca-
cy of the bill. He said that the auto
license tags cost the state 26 cents
each and are sold by the state for
$3.50 each, and that it is this profit
which the bill will use for the work
of the commission. Mr.. Williams of
Newton, Mr.. Rouse of Pearl River,
and Mr.. Green of Greene county,
added an appeal for its passage.

HOSPITAL FOR BEAUVOIR.
100000 Institution Now Possible
hampton Supports 1t.

Beauvoir, Miss, April 9.-That a
100000 hospital will be built at the
jefferson Davis Soldiers Home for
the sick and dying Confederate vet
Grams, is beginning to look more like
reality than a dream.
Superintendent Elnathan Tart has
just succeeded in getting bill
through the Legislature of Missis-
sippi, making it legal for each coun-
ty in the state of Mississippi to do
nate $1,000 each to a fund to build
this hospital. Theer are 80 counties
in the state, and it is now UP to Sup
erintendent Tart to induce the 81
boards of supervisors to make the
donations.
Hon. w. M. Hampton, of Mag
noIia, whosepurse is always open to
the soldiers home, has become very
much interested in the proposition
of Superintendent Tart and he is
going to help build the hospital.
Mr.. hampton will give $4,000 to
help build the hospital and it is pos
sibIe that he will give more.

1t is often said that knowledge IS
power, and this is true. Skill or
faculty of any kind carries with 1T
superiority. So, to certain extent,
wealth is power, and intellect is pow
er and genius has mighty grip ov-
er men. But higher, purer, and bet
ter than all, more constant IN Its IN
fluence, more lasting in its sway, Is
the power of characterize power
which emanates from pure ana
lofty mind, from a heart purged
from dead works, to serve the living
God. -.

perhaps be better to settle that way,

of Unemployment is dangerous, very
dangerous for the industry in which
we are engaged, for the men and for
the employer. We, therefore, rely
on you, the local Officers, to use your
best judgment in trying to hold the

conditions that you now have, until
over. If you fail in this supreme
test the men whom you represent
will despise you in the years to come.
There is indeed great responsible

Importance of your task and do not
be afraid to speak up. Speak the
words that even the majority may
not like to hear, and tell the truth
as you see it, and if you are defeat

above all, protect the union that
you have helped to make. Those
honest working men in your charge
and keeping have only YOU to guide
them, and it is your duty to be loyal
to them and save them from them
selves if necessary so that the union
may continue to live. Remember
this industrial depression will PASS
over, and if we can only retain our
unions where they are now, or un-

times-in a year or so-then we can
go ahead and perhaps beyond where
we are now, but the watchwords of

Mr.. Justice Pitney affirmed the con-

his argument upon the decided cases
and their legal implications. Mr.
Justice Holmes, deplored the extern

such social experiments as the peo-
pie might desire.
"Those who oppose the tactics of
organized labor have time and time
again told the unions to go to the
legislatures for relief if they feel
that the law is unfair to them. The
supreme court now says that this
cannot be done, and that the legis-
latures cannot constitutionally put
labor in favored position--at least
so far as strikers are concerned. Our
power to save the problems of indus
try through legislation is accordingly
very seriously curtailed. If organ
lied labor wants any substantial help
from our legislative bodies, it must
first get the constitution amended.
The only other alternatives, as The
Nation editorially points out, are for
labor to submit meekly or to use di-
rect action"

Supreme Court
And Labor Laws

A statement on a far reaching
recent anti-labor decision of the u.
S. supreme court has just been given
out by the American Civil Liberties
Union through Albert DeSilver, an
attorney who has studied its effect
on the labor movement. Mr.. De-
Silver's statement follows:
"The supreme court of the United
States on December 10 handed down
decision which deals organized la
Dor the most serious blow in a gen.
Grafton, by curtailing legislative pro-
lection for labor in industrial con-
flicts. The decision was 5 to a.
Justice Holmes, Brandeis, Clark and
Pitney dissenting from the major
ity opinion written by Chief Justice
Taft.
'1The case was called Truax VS..
Currigan and the facts involved are
simple. Truax was the proprietor of
a restaurant in Bisbee, Arizona. His
employees went on strike, and the
isbee local of the Cooks and Wait
ers' Union boycotted his restaurant
with such success that they cut his
business to about rs per cent of nor
NAL. Truax asked for an injunction,
complaining that the boycotters were
picketing the restaurant, announcing
that he was unfair to his employees,
circulating libellous statements about
him and intimidating his patrons and
his strike breaking employees. Among
other things, they held up sign, he
said, which read Leave hope behind.
All we who enter here" The union
in defense relied upon an Arizona
statute, patterned after the labor
section of the Clayton act, which pur-
ported to modify the use of injunc-
tions in labor cases and to prohibit
them against boycotts. The Arizona
supreme court held that defense was
good and that the statute was con-
stitutional. The federal supreme
court has just reversed this decision
by bar majority vote.
"The majority opinion holds that
any statute which legalizes the con-
duct complained of must necessarily
be unconstitutional because it allows
malicious injury to the employers
property and his business and there
fore deprives him of it without due
process of law The people of Ari-
zone, it says, have no right to change
the law in that manner and they
cannot constitutionally legalize such
conduct. In other words the supreme
court claims the power to veto over
any changes in the law of industrial
relations which the people may make
through the legislatures.
Although this was enough to dis
pose of the case, the court went still
further and held that the statute also
denied the plaintiff the equal pro-
lection of the laws and was uncon-
stitutional upon that ground as we'll
The statute, said the court, made
the unions conduct lawful, at least
by taking away the remedy of in

done by strikers, whereas it could
have been enjoined had it been done
