KILL PROPAGANDA ON THE
MOTION PICTURE SCREEN!

The motion picture screen is being used for pro-
paganda. Indications are that before the present
national campaign is ended We shall see much more
propaganda in the movies
Two propaganda features have been turned
loose recently.
One was a picture boosting the sales tax to
which Labor is strenuousy opposed, The sales tax
has for its object the relief of the rich and the taxing
of the poor
Another was picture boosting Secretary of the
Treasury Mellon, picture SO filled with gushing
propaganda rs to be sckening.
Where do the movies get off ut, making people
pay for being propagandized?
How do they get that way?
What does Will Hays know about this?
What do the theatres know about it?
Watch your picture housesl When they give
you propaganda, kick like steer!
Picture houses are paid by their patrons to pro-
vide entertainment, not propaganda.
Next time you see propaganda picture on the
of your faVorite movie house write letter to
the manager and tell him where to get off Take the
matter up in your union. Write letter to Will
Hays the high factotum of moviedom.
Propaganda on the screen has got to stop.
Report all propaganda in the movies to this
newspaper and report 1t also to the American Fed
Grafton of Labor headquarters at Washington.
Don't let the movies get away with propaganda.
Don't let big interests either industrial or poll
teal, use the screen for purposes of doping the
public.
Kill propaganda ON the screen. 1t has no bust
ness there!

by this board, had been harassed by
officials Of the carrier and cOerced

The manner in which the company
union" has been established on the
Pennsylvania railroad is a matter Of
record. But this is ignored by the
railroad officials who paint the we
are-one-big-family" picture.
Vice President Atterbury is a past
master in this word weaving. In a re
cent speech before the Rotary club Of
this city he declared that mutual con
fdence and joint conferences" are the
basis Of mutual relations" between
the company and employees.
And then the railroad official made
this astonishing statement:
Doesn't it seem a bit straneg that
he United States railroad labor board
should have so bitterly attacked our
company for making this plan sue.

tnaJ the plan merely carries out what

The railroad labor board insists that
employees select any representative
they choose. The board says, 10 effect,
if employees want to select a trade un-
ion representative, or even one from a
dual or seeding union, that Is their
right. The board holds that the com
panv has no more right to interfere
than would employees in the stockhold-
ers' election of the company board OF
directors.
In publicly censuring the company
last June because Of its hostile attl-
tude toward organized railway clerks,
the board said;
notwithstanding the fact that the
statute provides that class OF EN-
ploves shall enjoy the right Of select
ing the representatives Of such class,
one of the carriers counsel before the
hoard made this statement: We claim
the right to zeal with our employees
either through a majority Of minority
representation.' In other words, the
carrier abrogates to itself the priv
lege Of treating with contempt the
pTjDciple of majority representation
which IS fundamental not only IN the
transportation act, 1920, but through
ont the constitution and the institu-
ions and laws Of our land
1t was shown in this case that the
company not only denied rights 70 en-.
ploves. but inundated these workers
if they protested. On this subject
the board said:

employees showed the further fact that
