PROHIBITION BLOW
 ID TEMPERANCE
 DECLARES BISHOP
(San Francisco Examiner

tSan ETanClSCO EAaNlllGAi
 Prohibition has set back the cause of temperance m Alaska 2O years. Thus the Right Rev Peter Trimble Rowe, Bishop of the Epis- copalian Diocese of Alaska, scath- sngly summarized an attack upon the 18th amendment and the chao- tic conditions it has wrought
 The Northland'S famous flying bishop, 73-year-old, arrived in San Francisco on a national tour, ac- companied by one of five Indian ministers, native of the Alaskan Metlakhatla tribe.
 With indignation the venerable prelate told of the harmful influ- ence that the prohibition laws have had upon the whites, the Indians and the Eskimos.
 The people of the North have always drunk alcohol" the bishop said. Drinking I do not regard as a great sin. Drunkenness is ab- horrent. Prohibition has changed the people from 8 drinking race, wooed to the virtues of temperance, into an iriebriate class.
 "At the dances and other social gatherings, now we find the young people the old, too for that y,attar drunk artually drunk. There never was any such condi- ton before we came under the be- rign influence of the Volstead Act.
 We had educated the people to accept temperance. And then, with in \ year after prohibition came to Alaska, they had forgotten what we taught them, and had fallen into drunken ways. The prohibi- ton law, its advocates claim, was fashioned to protest the weak from their own weakness. Ii that be 50. it has defeated its own purpose. X

England, while visiting in Baltimore
last week with British and French
lawyers who are touring the United
States.
"There will be ups and downs in the
worldwide economic situation, but
there will be no permanent recovery
from the present depression until the
work week is drastically cut and
wages are increased" said Sir Will
liam.
"The worldwide depression is due
to overproduction, or, rather, under
consumption. Men and machines have
produced goods faster than they have
been consumed-the pyramiding IN
your country in recent years, for ex-
ample, has been terrific, and the cure
will come only when some adjustment
of consumption to production has been
effected.
"The upward trend of trade in the
immediate future will result from
depletion of stocks of goods turned
out in the past at rate faster than
that of world consumption. But the
permanent cure will not come until
the adjustment l mentioned is made.
l believe men all over the world
eventually will work but three days
week, but will be paid high wages
in order that they may consume the
goods they produce" !"

MIR. LEGGES INEXCUSABLE
BLUNDER

Mr. Alexander Legge, who went
from a great harvester company to
the Craftsmanship Of the federal farm
board, has attacked labor's wages.
Labor's average yearly wage in
the farm implement industry was
$1,391. What's wrong with that
wage? Is it too much?
Let's go further with Mr.. Legge.
He talks about pay envelopes that
make prices high for farmers. What
envelopes were these? Mr. Legge
laid all to labor, but United State5
government figures tell another
story. While, from 1914 to 1927-the
latest year for which there are fig
ures-wages rose roughly fifty per
cent, salaries rose roughly 100 per
cent. If there is too much being paid,
there it is!
Mr.. Legge is in the salary class.
Maybe his salary went up 100 per
cent in these years.
There's another point to raise.

In one big Southern mill the work

Rawleigh will find, sooner or later,
that the goose will play out.
Without difficulty the grim humor
of the goose and the hind leg of a
hog could be drawn out. But the
mere facts in the case seem to serve
best to lay bare the hypocrisy of cer-
tain types of employers.

"The anti-union policy of West Vir-
ginia, Kentucky and eastern Ohio
operators has not solved the coal
problem, nor will it." declares the
Wheeling News, Wheeling, West Va,
in leading editorial. The newspaper
says wage cutting continues in these
deunionized areas.
1T seemed last fall and last winter
that the misery of the coal miner and
his family had reached the limit, but
the misery has sunk below even the
level of last years operation" says
the News.
"The latest important coal activity
to make a cut is the Consolidation
Company, with u per cent reduc-
ton. Its reason is the various cuts
made by competitive mines in the
same territory.
'These operators claimed their diff
ficulties were overcome when they
eliminated the union. As matter of
fact, they found that the union was,
to a very large degree, the principal
protection of the fair coal operator
against the hog. In every industry
there are some men who want to do
all the business; they want to de-
stroy competitors. They are almost
invariably price cutters. Having to
cut the price to get large contract,
they fall back upon their helpless
workmen to make up the losses. A
few months later another price cutter
comes along, the price is again cut,
and again the workmen have to pay"

From the. same governmental sources
it is shown that in cereal prepara-
tions, raised by farmers, out of a
total value added by manufacture
amounting to $67, ,93S,240 in 1880, just
$S,178,35S is wages, while the average
wage per worker was $1,374! Those
figures are up to date--1930-from
the census of last April. Let the
farmers look at those figures and
ponder.
When Mr. Legge next goes out to
do battle it will be well for him to
look to his guns, lest he pick another
collection of flint locks.
And as to what he has just said
in Syracuse, charging labor, which is
criminally under-paid, with being the
robber in the equation, it is clearly
up to him to retract. He may have
been talking to farmers, but workers
have ears. And they know the facts.
