Unionism is a social force because
its heart is morally and officially
sound. 1t is never found pleading for
special privilege, wage rates it asks
for are met by non-union employers.
Its pleas for the adjustment of child
labor include children of workers who

Slow business recovery makes it very
difficult for small business concerns
to continue normal expenditures. Some
financial agencies are urging deflation
of prices, values, and wages. Deflation
has destroyed investments that repre-
sented work and savings. Some Of the
larger concerns are taking advantage
OF conditions as an excuse to cut wag-
es and destroy standards of work es-
tablished by our effort. Declaring that
public opinion is the greatest force to
stop wage cutting, President Green
urges the local unions to get before
the employers organization the facts
about what the wage earners income
mean to local business. Business men,
he says, should be helped realize that
wage earners constitute 80 per cent
of the retail trade and what wage
n buying power means to every
one engaged in business or following
a profession.
The wage earner side of the wage
question, the statement points out,
should likewise be presented to cham
Der OF commerce, rotary clubs, study
clubs, ministers associations and pro-
fessional groups. President Green also
urges that wage earners throw the
purchasing power of their wages to
employers who are steadfastly main
tanning wage levels.

Constitutional Monarchy Is

of Uprising.

By United Press
WASHINGTON, June PA re-
volt against King Praiadhipok of
Siam. one of the worlds few re-
naming absolute monarchs, broke
out in Bangkok today, the American
legation there reported to the state
department. The revolution was led
by army and navy officers. They
demanded establishment of a consti-
tutional monarchy under the king.
Historians Immediately recalled an
old prophecy that the Chakri
dynasty, of which Prajadhipok is a
member, would last only a century
and half. It's 15Oth anniversary
was celebrated in April of this year.
The legations report said the rev.
olution came as surprise. The king
and royal family, the minister of in
terror, and the chief of police were
seized by the insurgents and held at
throne hall under guard.
No Opposition Reported
1t was reported that members of
the revolutionary party left early
today to bring the king to the CAPT.
tai and demand the establishment
of a, constitutional monarchy un-
der Prajadhipok himself
Up to the time the legations re-
port was filed, there had been no
opposition to the revolt. The lega-
ton did not know the names of its
leaders.
Bangkok at 2 p. m. was quiet and
the only bloodshed had been the
shooting of an officer who refused
to join the revolutionary movement.
Prajadhipok, a small, slender man
Of scholarly mien, visited the United
States last year with his royal en-
tourage to have a cataract removed
from his eye. He was operated upon
at Ophir hall, New York, the home
of Mr.. and Mrs Ogden Reid.
King FavOrs Plan
In well-informed quarters here,
it was said the young king is known
to favor establishment of a consti-
tutional monarchy, although his
idea is opposed by some of the
Siamese elders.
Economic difficulties are believed
to provide the motivating power be-
hind the revolution. The kingdom
has suffered heavily during the
world depression.
Siam is peopled in the main by
peasant farmers who raise rice,
cocoanuts, rubber and lockwood.
The 1929 census gave Prajadhipok
more than eleven million subjects.
