TOURIST TAX PAYS COST
OF SEWERS IN FRANCE

Correspondence OF the Associated Press
PARIS.-Building sewers and paving
streets with tourist taxes collected to
beautify resorts has aroused national
criticism Of the take de seiour"
charged on hotel bills In l60 towns OF
France.
Enghien-les Bains, a suburban town
north Of Paris. where the casino Is
closed, used It's tourist taxes for a
sewer. Other towns have diverted their
Identification funds into all sorts Of
normal funds so as to tighten local
taxation.
A national tourist association that
put over the tourist tax idea now Is
criticizing 1t. 1t mentions that l7.0O0,-
600 francs are collected from tourists.
but that there Is little to show for the
money in the way of improvements
calculated TO encourage tourists.
The richest cities. also. seem to get
the most money. Nice heading the list.
There was an effort In Parliament
recently to repeal the tax because many
thought II so annoyed foreign tourists
as to make them prefer other countries
where there were not so many unex-
pected extras charged on the hotel bills.

BAR SEEKS A LABOR POLICY

trial council would fulfill some Of the
duties Or the board Of mediation for
the railroads, or whether separate
boards Of mediation would be created
where needed-all such questions re-
main unanswered until after the hear
ings this week have determined the at
tituCc OF labor and employer on the
labor policy" as outlined.
x&& # r.
In one respect, from the viewpoint
of labor, the aim OF the railroad labor
act has been frustrated. The success Of
the act is based on what .l:s labor lead
ers term fair and free representation"
Written into the act are the .; DIVISIONS:
"All disputes between a carrier and
its employees shall be conside-ed and, II
possible. decided with all expedition. in
conference between representatives des-
ignated and authorized so to confer. re-
spectiveiy, by the carriers and by the
employees thereof interested in the Dis
pute.
Representatives. for the purpose o;
this act, shall be designated By the re-
spective parties in such manner as may
be provided In their corporate oreaniZa-
ton or unlncOrpOrated association. or b3
other means OF collective action, r'ithout
interference, influence or coercion ex-
ercised by either party over the self
organization or designation of reEiG-
sentatives by the other"
BY setting up company unions IS
opposed TO the national unions CT broth
erhoods, some OF the railroads lave
sought TO evade the labor act The
Board OF Mediation is flooded with CON-
plants OF this practice, and labor gen.
orally Is up in arms about It. The As
sociated Press last week reported the
action of Southern Federal judge Who
has held In contempt Of court the Of
ficials Of a railroad who deal. with the
representatives of the company union
TO the exclusion of the free and fairly
elected" representatives Of the national
unions. their action being held In de-
fiance of the railroad labor at.
This weak point IN the railroad labor
act will come in for discussion at the
hearings in New York. Labor will stick
up for the principle OF fair and free
representation" IN any law giving en-
forceability to voluntary arbitration
AWARDS. And this is only one Of many
controversial points which loom ahead
