OF PRIvlL EcE BE PUDDLE
PEOPLE WITH LABOR COURT IDEA

Events seem. to be shaping up to
attempt a. legislative h slaughter
Of labor. The press bureaus ,of pri-
yilege are humping the newspape-
ukulele in~nass chorus and howl
Ing a hymn for ''the public inter.
est" p ''5,'''< + !. III = T.
THE public interest demands
freedom from group control. In
G,a.nstrial: courts must be established
by the national. government which
shall be devoted solely to the pub
lie interest. Neither capital nor
labor shall be represented as such
in the makeup Of these courts"
That's an old song, though set to
new and alluring music. : ,:
Hamstringing Of labor by state
legislatures and local ''can't-strike
laws" is a slow process. What is
now needed is action-quick action:
harmonious pounding of the same
note by both "press and public" at
the same time. with. the press guild
ing the leaders baton, to- induce
''the public" to start its raucous
bawling OF it's ready-made opinions.
Editorial Clamor Coming. =;
Presently the country will ring
with editorial clamor for more courts
and judges who will be servants Of
the public" with power, to proclaim
their judgment on lator questions, fix
wages and hours of labor, with pub
lie opinion" as the arbiter.
Public opinion" in these days of
mass movement Of privilege means.
purely and simply. the views of hired
press agents and editorial. writer's
who plan their work and write what
they are. told to write by those who
pay their salaries:
public opinion" has, few other
forms Of expression than the: press
Of the country, and the press. Of the
country largely is controlled either
by corporations which require con-
troll in Order to shape public opinion
to- their; corporate interests or, by
those, who are: engaged in; publica-
ton as a business: enterprise for
money-making purposes. ..
Behind the mask the purpose
clearly is to- endeavor> to- blindfold
labor: and lead it into the :bogs of
confusion, But labor cannot be fool
ed by, any such game of blind-mari
bluff. - - -

posed by owners for engineers; and

made by the Shipping Board It will
be "s4bstantial." He is now con-
