Washington, d. C. (ILNS)-Latin
American news "broke big" in the
national capital this week under these
headings:
Riots in Haiti caused President
Hoover to send 500 Marines to the
islands, while urging Congress to give
him authority to appoint commits
sion to investigate.
Nicaragua came into prominence
again when Sinclair Lewis, famous
author and recent investigator of
Marion mill life, told Senator Borah
he ought to summon General Smed-
ley Butler to explain recent Pitts
burgh speech in which he is quoted as
having described framed elections in
Nicaragua as we'll as how Haiti was
controlled.
3-Porta Rican conditions were de-
scribed by Governor Theodore Roose-
welt in newspaper articles and inter-
views in which he said 60 per cent
Of the school children were desti-
tute-hungry and ill-clothed. Roose-
velt described conditions as 'shock-
ing" 10000 children without food.
Mexican Rebellion Threatened
4-Mexico broke onto page l when
Jose Vasconcelos announced he in
tended to start rebellion against the
newly elected president, Ortiz Rubio.
Vasconcelos, once Gales adherent,
"went left" and is totally ION the
out" with the Gales -Rubio group.
In all Of these developments labor
has deep interest. c onditions in
Haiti, Nicaragua and Porto Rico have
been before one or more conventions
of the Pan-American Federation of
Labor. Added to these is the Cuban
situation, where dictatorship as
rigid as any in the world exists. Prop
erty claims show signs of yielding to
new American government policy,
but this brings no comfort to the
masses of Cubans who are bereft of
the rights of free speech, free press,
free assembly, trial by jury, free
movement and the right to organize.
Roosevelt Blames Hurricane
In the case of Porto Rico Governor
Roosevelt blames distress largely on
the last hurricane. Santiago Iglesias,
veteran Porto Rican senator and Sec
retary of the Pan-American Fedora
ton of Labor, has been demanding for
at least Is yaers an investigation of

NOCKELS FIGHTS
FOR LABOR VOICE

Washington, D. c. (ILNS)-E. N.
Nockles, manager of Radio Station
VIGIL, the Voice of Labor, and sec
retary of the Chicago Federation of
Labor, was in Washington this week
continuing the long struggle for a
fair deal for labor's big radio station
in Chicago
VIGIL was ordered, on November
80, to go to full time on 1880 kilo-
cycles or 234 meters, an arrangement
accepted by the station until it could
be proven by actual operation that it
is not satisfactory arrangement.
The station had been on $40 on part
time. Nockels declared that the new
wave length was as unsatisfactory as
he had expected it would be.
VIGIL will continue the fight for a
satisfactory wave length, with full
time on the air with ample power, in
order to adequately serve the labor
movement.

NAVY'S WAGE
Raise Rejection Is Taken To
President Hoover

Washington, D. c. (ILNS)-Secre-
tary of the Navy Adams has decreed
that navy yard wages for civilian
employees are to be the same for
1880 that they have been for 1929.
No change, up or down, is the decree.
Immediately following announce
ment of the decision trade union
delegation went to the White House
to discuss the matter with President
Hoover. The delegation included
President William Green, of the
American Federation of Labor, Presi-
dent James O'Connell, Of the A. F.
of L. metal trades department, and
Secretary John P. Frey, of the metal
trades department.
The metal trades department,
through Secretary Frey, it's represen-
tative on the navy wage board, had
contended for increases in several
categories. Stubborn resistance to
any increase was encountered, but
the logic of the situation in any
event prevented reductions in any of
the many classifications.
In his letter to naval and marine
corps officers, Secretary Adams said:
"In accordance with the existing
law governing wages in the naval es-
Establishments (referring to the act of
July 16, 1862, l hereby extend the
schedule of wages covering the pay
of all civil employees in the naval es-
tablishment and field service of the
United States marine corps for the
calendar year 1880, as is now in effect
for the calendar year 1929"

tive Woodrum, dem., Virginia, intro

Columbia employees. This would not
extend to mechanics, of course.

Labor Hating Interests Use
Los Angeles Times Articles
To Stir Anti-Union Feeling

Altoona, Pa, (ILNS)-In an at
tempt to create prejudice against or
ganized labor and thus hamper trade
union organization work in Altoona
and vicinity, anti-union interests are
circulating great numbers of SER
les of articles which appeared in the
union-hating Los Angeles Times be-
ginning October /.
The Times articles, which give a
highly colored account of the blowing
up of the Times building in 1910 and
the 40-year attempt to make Los An
geles an "open shop" city have been
reprinted in a 28-page tabloid paper.
The articles, 33 in number, are of
course written from the viewpoint of
the "open shoppers" and their mouth
piece, the Times, which under the own
ership of the late Harrison Gray
Otis, became the leading anti-union
daily newspaper in the United States.

laid the blame for continued distress
upon economic conditions, aggravated
by political subservience. 1t isn't all
hurricane, but the distress is real
enough and it is not temporary.
With the exception of the Mexican
flare-up, which may come to nothing,
the Latin American outbursts of the
hour trace back to bad American
policy, to financial exploitation and a
healthy mixture of local corruption
which is in itself related to exploita-
ton by capital from the outside. In
each case the experiment of rule by
Marines is proving mot SO good"
Fresh point is given criticisms of
the past policy by the appointment
during the week of seven new minis
ters and ambassadors to South Ameri-
can nations, virtually reorganizing
the entire American diplomatic serv-
ice, reputation of former diplomacy
and on that continent. This is regard
ed as an effort to get Latin American
relations on a healthier, better basis.
Wants Hitian Inquiry
The Haitian riots have undoubtedly
hastened the effort to retrieve Amer
can laurels. Senator Shipstead said
he hoped the investigation there would
not "whitewash what is going on"
Shipstead is member of the foreign
relations committee. He introduced
a resolution calling for investigation
of Cuban affairs more than year
ago 1t died, after which Senator
Borah talked about resolution to
achieve the same end. That is in a
state of suspended animation, consid
cred possible of revival after the
Presidents move to put the cards on
the table in the case of Haiti.
