SENATE PASSES CON TR0L. BOARD
 N E ASURE TODAY
Steel Controller Bill Passed Five to Three Without
 Word of Debate

| The Senate this afternoon by a vote of five to three, passed Steels new Controller Bill, Senate Bill No. 35, creating a Board of Con- trol to be the executive branch of the Territorial Government, es- tablishing the office of auditor and providing for his election, and the i election of the Territorial Treasur- CT by popular vote.
 The bill was read by title only. There was no debate of any kind. Not a single word was spoken in either defense or condemnation The emergency clause, however, failed to pass, being one vote short of the necessary two-thirds of the membership. Senators Frame, An derson, Sundquist, Benjamin and Steel voted both for the bill and the emergency, while Senators Di- mond, Dunn and Hess voted against both.
 Kill Other Measures
 
 The majority machine then nov ed on to wipe off it's calendar the other two measures for govern mental reorganization. It took off the table the bill providing for the popular election of Treasurer and another creating the office of Auditor and providing for his popu- lar election. Both were read for the second time.
 The Treasurer measure was first to get the axe. MT Sundquist, seconded by Mir. Frame, moved it's indefinite postponement. For the second time during the days ses- sion, the. Senate voted without de- bate, and the kill was killed by the same vote and division as the Con- troller Bill carried.
 The same procedure was followed on the bill to elect an Auditor. But before the vote was taken, Senator Dunn, it's author, urged the Senate to defeat the motion to kill it.
 Recognized Futility
 But he, himself, recognized the futility of such a plea. Even if an angel from Heaven came down and defended the measure, I know it wouldn't make any difference to-" the majority, he asserted. The purpose of the bill, he added, was to give the people of Alaska need ed office to be filled in the only American manner, by election, to have it's duties imposed on the of- fieer occupying it directly. The Steel Controller Bill, he said, was an effort to mix up several offices, to create an arbitrary board with extensive powers.
 If you believe in the principles Of American Government, there is no reason why you cannot support this measure" he asserted. He charged that the majority members were saddling the Territory with an experiment in government, and no one knew where it might lead to. We have had very efficient sys- tern of Government up to now, but God knows where we will go under this Control Board" he concluded.
 The vote of the Senate remained unchanged. Anderson, Benjamin. Frame, Sundquist and Steel voted for indefinite postponement and Di- mond. Dunn and Hess against it.

other appropriating $689 to cover a deficit in the Kotzebua school building appropriation.
 Amendments are Defeated
 Yesterday afternoon, the Senate by a five to three vote, defeated Senator Hess amendments to the Controller Bill which sought to di- vide the original into three meas ures, the first two covering election of an Auditor and the Treasurer, and the third embodying the pro- visions of the Steel bin relative to the Board of Control Senators Dimond. Dunn and Hess supported the amendments and Senators An derson, Benjamin, Frame, Steel and Sundquist voted against them. Final action on the Steel bill was set for this afternoon.

BLIND LEGISLATOR
 A BRIDGE DEVOTEE

COLUMBUS, Ohio, March 26-Playing bridge and hunt ing the fox are the favorite pastimes of Roy J. Gillen, blind state senator.
 To play bridge, he uses cards which he marks with raised characters. To chase the fox he needs only a good mount. He is the owner of a pack of a dozen excellent foxhounds. In Ohio, it is not customary to shoot the fox at the end of a hunt, the outrunning of the animal be- ing considered sufficient vic- tory.
 Senator Gillen was blinded by an explosion when he was a boy. His wife is with him constantly.

means, and practically all of them
are open to those who are willing to
join the union.
1t is said that it is un-American
for the unions to enter into an agree
ment with an employer and insist
that none but members of the union
shall be employed What is the prin-
ciple involved in the closed union
shop?
1t will be admitted by all that
where trade unions have functioned
they have improved the working con-
ditions of the employees. Competent
opinion agrees that organization has
helped the workers. When group of
men organize a union and after much
work and expense they secure an
agreement for improved conditions
from the employer, are they to be
expected to pass these benefits on to
other workers without any charge ?
The unions meet this situation by
demanding an initiation fee from ap-
plicants to make up for some of the
benefits already achieved and de.
mand regular dues for the purpose of
maintaining the conditions and secur-
ing further improvements. To any
fair minded person that win seem
just.
The principle is accepted in other
walks of life. When foreigne,
comes to this country he is required
to pay head tax, and if he remains
he is required to live up to certain
regulations and pay taxes the same
as anyone else. No one questions the
justice of that arrangement. Surely
the group has the right to demand
from the individual compensation fo
the benefits received from the group
What is un-American about sucl
a principle? The answer is obviousl,
nothing. Yet either ignorantly o
maliciously people continue to crit
size the trade unions for insistin
upon the democratic division of labo
and expense in conducting the organ
ization.

conditions. The Greenville workers
won in short order, while the Eliza
bethton strikers were still out when
this was written.
Greenville and Elizabethton show
that southern workers are quite
capable of fighting for their rights.
The strikes are only one indication of
cheering interest among southern
wage earners in organization and i'm
provement of their conditions. OF
even more Importance is the move
ment for trade union organization in
Tennessee, North Carolina and other
southern states. North Carolina
seems to be taking the lead with q
labor forward movement that is stir.
ring workers in its principal cities

The movement among southern
workers indicates that they are not
going to submit to miserable wages
and bad working conditions, which is
something that employers moving Il
the South in search of cheap labor
are likely to find out in the next few
years.

WOMEN AND THE LABEL

There ought to be no question
about unionism having the full sup
port of the wives and daughters and
sons of union workers in the full
program of the cause They are tre-
mendously interested in the success
of that cause and their full co-opera-
tion is of the most vital Importance.
The union label is certificate that
the article has been made in a sani-
tary workshop and not handled by
persons having any infectious disease,
that it has not been made in a sweat
shop, the breeding place of tubercu-
losis and many other equally fatal
diseases which may be easily trans
mitted to purchasers of sweatshop
and prison-made goods Certainly no
greater mission work confronts
American women today than the
union label movement.
Women are buyers for their famil-
les; they are therefore the employ
ers. So if a woman demands the
union label on whatever goods she
buys, she influences the shopkeeper
to purchase union label goods and
employ union workmen. In this way
she prevents the horrors of the
sweatshop and child labor, and bene.
fits the situation for everyone con
cerned. So it is up to the women tc
take these words to heart and ac
on them, thus following out the Bib
lical maxim of doing unto others a.
they would be done by.

CLOSED SATURDAY NIGHT

Labor in Omaha, Neb., has just
shown how trade unionists can enlist
public sentiment to their support.
The Omaha unionists began a cam
paign against Saturday opening of
the stores, which was threatened by
the opening on Saturday nights of a
Sears, Roebuck & Co. store. Other
stores felt that they would have to
follow suit. Then the Central Labor
Union and the Unionist, labor paper,
got busy, with the result that civic,
fraternal, social and church organiza-
cations throughout the city demanded
that all stores close at $50.
So strong was public sentiment that
Sears, Roebuck capituIated and an
nounced that the Omaha store would
close at p. m. on Saturdays. With
the announcement, the ghost of Sat-
urday night opening vanished and
Omaha was saved from taking back
ward step which would have meant
hardship for thousands Of store work
ers.

THE CLOSED SHOP

The opponents Of trade unionism
are fond of dilating upon the closed
shop, and complaining that it denies

1t would be fairer to speak of the
union shop and the non-union shop,
for there are closed shops of both
varieties. Generally speaking. the
non-union shop is closed to members
of the union. There is lots of pre-
tense that this is not so, but prac-
teal experience proves that it its. On
the other hand, all union shops are
not closed to non-members by any

Another blow to the idea that men
are the stronger sex! This one comes
from D. c. j. Ho, who finds that the
common impression that women have
more sick absences of long duration
from their jobs is wrong His con-
clusion comes as the result of a study
made in large department store
and he reports on the study in the
Personnel Journal. However. the
women with home problems show
more lates, absences and sick benefits
than those not SO burdened, while the
men workers in a similar position
seem to become more careful of their
attendance.

ECONOMISTS WILL
AGAIN RETREAT

A law to permit resale prices will
be strongly urged at the next regular
session of congress.
Under such law the producer of
a trade-marked commodity can set
the price that middlemen and re-
tailers must charge. There can be
no competition in these goods, as the
price would be stabilized, regardless
of the amount handled or the retail
er's fixed cost of conducting his busi-
ness.
When workers would stabilize
prices for their service we hear much
of the "immutable law of supply and
demand" that is as fixed as is the
solar system.
Permission to set resale prices will
drive economists from the last ditch
they dug to defend this theory.
