whom Mr.. Berresford speaks are
learning by experience what organ
lied labor foresaw long ago.
Group insurance and pensions were
primarily designed to tie men to their
jobs. They were intended to keep
workers out of the unions and to fill
them with fear of strikes, or any
other move calculated to displease the
boss.
In substance, the employer who in
dulges in these "philanthropies" holds
back a part of the workers wages,
which the worker loses if he quits.
But not content with that unfair
advantage, many of these employers
are trying to welsh on their obliga-
tions. To make their group insurance
and pensions cost as little as possi-
Bile, they are deliberately throwing
trained workers of middle age on the
scrap heap.
Gradually the process has worked
up through the ranks Of the unskill-
ed, the semi-skilled and the skilled
until, at last, it has reached profes
sional workers.
Some of Mr.. Berresfofd's associates
have been disposed to sneer at Labor
unions. After few more courses in
the school of experience they will
discover their mistake. If they are
smart they will start organizing
unions of their own right now.
1t is nice to belong to a Learned
society,"" but it does no afford much
protection in an industrial row.

GROWERS OF COTTON
URGED TO REDUCE

Washington.-Cott growers were
advised to plant less acreage by Carl
Williams, member federal farm
board, in a radio address. The speaker
frankly declared that planters would
secure a greater income if they did
less work in 1880.
"The federal farm board wants to
help farmers to help themselves"
said Mr.. Williams. eff growers will
reduce their cotton acreage they will
thereby help themselves to better in
comes.
"The earnest cooperation of every
farmer, merchant, banker, newspaper
and educational institution, and of
every public-spirited citizen of the
South, is invited to make effective
this plain lesson of recent years"

PINCH OF AGE LIMIT

Arthur W. Berresford, retiring pres

"old" men in an industry has reached
and seriously injured such highly
trained technicians as civil, mechan-
ical and other engineers.
"It seems unbelievable" said Mr..
Berresford, in an address to the
council last week, "that trained en-
gineer of 40, when experience has
brought him to his real producing
value, should find difficulty in MAX
ing new connection because of his
age.
But most of the larger industrial
establishments are virtually barred to
him because of the restrictions of

LAWS DANGEROUS

Charles I. of England was beheaded
for enforcing unpopular laws. His

share in the government" Great
Britain levied an unpopular tax on
the colonies, and the inevitable hap

pendence. The fugitive slave law was
unpopular and could not be enforced
result, rebellion.
For more than ten years prohibi-
tion has been unpopular Had it been
popular it would not have failed in
it's enforcement. The drys are asking
for more drastic laws, to further
force upon an unwilling people sub
mission The United States is a de-
mocracy in which the people must
rule or democracy will be destroyed.
A federal law which has failed of
enforcement for the past ten years,
although prisons are overcrowded
with violators and many have been
unfortunately killed in the cause, now
needs an army and navy and more
drastic laws for its enforcement
This should teach even the most ar
dent adherents the ultimate failure
of prohibition, unless submitted to the
people.

TEACHERS DEAD LINE"

Teachers are confronted by the age
dead line" which threatens to de-
prive education of some of it's best
and soundest minds.
This situation is revealed by
Teachers College of New York city,
which warns all educational workers
who are nearing the age of 4o not to
resign without assurance of other
Jobs. Persons 35 or older are advised
if they resign to do graduate work
with the hope of bettering their posi-
tion later, "They may have trouble
getting any position, not alone bet
ter one"
Many school boards and educational
institutions, it is explained, will not
hire instructors in the neighborhood
of 40 or beyond.
Thus teachers are facing the same
age barrier to employment as work
ers in the shop, factory or other in
dustries.
If only the young are to be en-
ployed as teachers, education will
suffer from being deprived Of the ex-
perience and wisdom which youth, by
reason of being youth, does not often
possess. 1t is a situation which prom
ises no good for education in this
country.

age the fiction that judges assume an
impersonal quality and they discard
former economic views and general
outlooks.
This fable, attacked for the first
time on the floor of the senate, is in
tended TO silence protest against Ia
Dor injunctions and other iniquities.
The senate discussion broke new
ground and may be the beginning of a
realistic attitude toward govern
mental unit that is not above criti-
cism.
There is nothing supernatural
about Judge. He is, in the last anal
ysis, but an arbitrator whom the peo-
pie expect to adjust disputes along
general lines approved by them.
When a Judge departs from that
path and assumes powers foreign to
our constitution, laws and ideals, he
alone is responsible for any disre-
spect that befalls the judiciary.

UNEMPLOYMENT
At Once Hits Business, Says

Washington (ILNS) - Asserting
that business is carrying out it's
pledge ito make every effort to Gre
ate and maintain employment" until
the emergency is over, julius Barnes,
chairman of the national business
survey conference, takes over in toto
the idea that purchasing power of
the masses is needed to keep the
business machine going. He says:
Wage scales, too, are being main
tained to sustain buying power. One
of the most encouraging factors at
the present time is found in the fact
that at least forty-four million per-
sons are gainfully employed, which
is ten million more than were at work

ENGINEERS TO FIGHT
FAKE DIPLOMA MILLS

Chicago.-The American Associa

school racketeers that promise pros
poets $4,000 and $4,000 year jobs
after a few weeks of home study.
"These rackeeers, with their 'di-
ploma mills are annually grinding
out a grist of thousands of disillu-
stoned and victimized young men and
women" said H. A. Wagner, presi-
dent of the engineers.
-Four times as many men and
women are enrolled in correspond
ence and trade schools as in all col
leges, professional schools and uni
versities combined, or total of

MORE LIGHT ON LOBBY COSTS

The American Importers and Trad
ers, Inc, fighting against labor's aims
in tariff legislation, spent $44,045.30
in lobby work from January to No
vember rs, 1929, operating through
the Phoenix News Bureau, of New
York. Testimony does not appear to
show whether results in this anti
labor fight will justify the cost. What
is clear is that enemies of decent
American standards will spend lot
of money in the hope of protecting
their own profits.

NEW YORK, Feb. 28.-Cables
were a few points under parity this
morning, and while New York did
it reluctantly, the market opened
lower. Local traders were bearish,
and, encouraged by lack of new
business, succeeded in marking
prices down 10 or II points. A
strong wheat market failed to put
much life into the market, but at
the end of the first hour in the aft
ernoon, most Of the early loss had
been recovered, due to buying for
New Orleans interests. Without be-
ing able to point to any definite
example, 1t is our opinion that the
textile business Is about to show
some improvement. Discouraging
news Is not being featured and re-
tailers are very short of stocks.
Thursdays advance convinces US
that the market Is in a position to
respond quickly to buying and we
advise traders to make purchases as
reactions create the opportunity.
