FASCIST GOVT. IS
Highly INDIGNANT
Objects TO Criticism by The
: Vatican Newspaper

I'm, ,. - 49,
nome oc'' VIZ "'''
Osservatore Romano onlPlal he"s-
paper of the Vatican, into critical
polemic with various Fascist news
papers on the use by lascists OF per-
sonal violence as a political weapon
has brought up the interesting ques-
ton: HAS the Italian government
the right to control or TO suppress
the newspaper OF the Holy See for
political reasons?"
This unusual development, erea-
ting a new aspect OF relations be-
tween the government and Vatican
and tending to imperil the already
considerable work OF Premier Mus
solini in removing causes OF friction
with the Holy See, has been brought
up by the embarkment of the OsSer-
vatore Romano upon a campaign OF
frank criticism OF the use OF Violence
as a political weapon at any time or
for any purpose.
Abandoning Its customary dignl-
ned aloofness. the Papal newspaper
almost has daily printed articles in
which Fascist tactics have been
criticized freely and Fascist apollo
gists have been answered in some
detail. The newspaper has gone so
far as to engage III spirited polemic
with Roberto Farinacci. secretary
general Of the Fascist party, and has
not hesitated to tell him boldly, IN
answer to his repeated demands that
1t cease interference with purely
political affairs, that 1t intends to
stop It's comments when 1t no longer
vas anything to say and only then.
Yet, While the official press censor
has suppressed neutral and opposi'
zion newspapers for the slightest
preach OF criticism OF governmental
tactics, the Vatican newspaper has
never been lnterlered with. Conse,
quently the question OF possible IN
reference has been brought up by
fasclsts because OF their irritation
over unforeseen criticism and by OPP
i position leaders because OF their de
sire TO prove the unfairness OF press
censorship in general.

than reaI-It is obvious upon a reading
of the Colonial Law and Rules of Bust
ness that the Council has no such autho-
rity. The only !easonA why the patents
of appointment are usually placed on the

1t must be borne in mind that we are
dealing with a Danish Colonial Law, and
in view of the foregoing, and of the find

could he be reasonably expected to take
any other stand q? No. Neither has the

McClintic Decision
Not Surprising In
View of His Record
By Frank Morrison, Secretary
American Federation of Labor.

The recent decision of Federal Judg,
McClintic, West Virginia District, tha
the miners union is violation of tn,
antitrust law, and which newspapers
allege is the reason why no move vii
be made by Government officials t.
adjust the anthracite strike, Is not sur
prlsing. Those who have followed
Judge McClintic's decision in labor
cases know his bias and his disregard
Tor justice and law.
Some one should remind Judge Nc
Clintis that the Clayton amendment TO
the antitrust law declares that "the
labor of human being is not a com
modify or an article of commerce. :
The purpose of this amendment is TO
acquaint injunction judges with the
fact that Congress makes a distine-
tion between a group of business men
who would monopolize commodity
and a group of human beings who
would unite TO improve their working
conditions.
Judge McClintic's attitude toward
labor is well known in his jurisdiction.
In 1922 he issued an injunction against
West Virginia striking miners from
erecting tent colonies on land they
had leased. This astounding writ was
set aside by the Federal Circuit Court
of Appeals.

Washington, Dec. 3.-Adherence to

action of the council follows:
"Inasmuch as former conventions of
the A. F. of l.. have endorsed a world
court; We reaffirm our adherence to
the principles of the world court; that
we urge continuance of study by Pres
ident Green of all proposals submitted
on this subject to the United States
congress; that he, President Green,
keep the executive council continually
advised and informed of his progress
sive studies, and that he be authorized
to further the participation and ad-
herence of the United States in a
world court on such conditions and
with such reservations as in his Judg-
ment and that of the executive council
shall seem best to protect the Ameri-
can wage earners and all our citizens,
at the same time promote information
al accord and world amity through a
world court.
Further, that all city and state fed
erations of labor be advised of this
action; that they be continually in
formed of subsequent decisions of the
executive council on this subject and
that they be requested not to take any
action on this subject contrary to the
decisions of the A. F. of L.

Too Much Power
For ANY President

The A. +. Of l.. executive council
records its opposition to empowering
the president 10 arbitrarily feofganize
the various departments of govern.
ment The proposal Is urged by Con
greasman Dayoy of Ohio.
In theory, the plan is alluring.
Let the departments be placed on
an economic buslness-like baslH,' the
public Is told
In practice the plan would make a
dictator of the president lie could
rip up our whole system OF govern
ment, could surround himself with
favofites and dismiss those whom he
dislikes. lie would be armed with an
absolulism even unknown under the
spoils system In It's widest days.
This is too much power for demo.
cratic people To place IN the hands oi
their president, regardless Of who
occupies the White House.
The proposal Is but another phase
Of the campaign against the law
making branch of our government by
those who would center all power IN
the executive.
The Dayey plan n as autocfatie as
Mussolini's most daring suggestion Of
government, with It's checks and bal.
ancea.
The present world teniency Is to-
ward the "nght"-toward Dictator
ship and against the parliamentary
theory. This movement is open where
strong enough. When Il dare not
show It's teeth. il Is stealthy.
The latter policy is favored by
American Mussolinis and Trotskys.

Forced Rail Merger
Has Been Abandoned

Washington, Dec. 3-The inter
state commerce commission has aban-
doned its attempt to force merging
Of the nations railroads. The plan
was worked out by Prof. c. u. Ripley
of Harvard university, who grouped
the carriers into % great systems
The interstate commerce commission
accepted this as basis, and later pro-
posed 10 regional groupings.
The railroads oppose compulsory
merging, which would fasten nom
paying roads on those who are more
prosperous. The railroads point out
that the motor truck will revolutlonlze
short hauls and will make 1t possible
to abandon branch lines whose upkeep
does not permit dividend earnings,
These railroads, managers say, VIII
drag down profitable roads II the
mergers are forced.
That the commission is alert 10
changing conditions because OF the
motor truck is indicated by its APP
proyal of railroads abandoning shor'
lines and installing the motor system
Members of congress who recently
advocated compulsory merging have
also abandoned this policy. The car,
rlers are perfecting consultations ,o9i
larger systems while they gradually
week out the lines with excessive over
head charges and small incomes.

Teaching Profession
Is Poor Money Getter

Washington, Dec. 3.-Measured by
the "go-getter' standards of today
the teaching profession is not "pay-
ing business"
A study of the cost of preparation
for this profession made among
graduate students in Columbia uni
versity, and published in the Labor
Monthly, issued by the United States
bureau of labor statistics, shows that
this cost is excessive, when measured
by money returns.
1t was found that the average ex-
penditures for absolutely necessary
items connected with securing the
degree of doctor Of philosophy ranges
from $500 TO $4,000, according to the
time spent in postgraduate work.
The average salary, after about IL
years of teaching and with the highest
degree in the profession, varies from
about S3,400 in the small universities
or colleges, to $4,000 at the most in
the large institutions.
