labor should be represented "as a
producing partner in industry and
as a major social group"
AS to the need for Constructive"
control of the banks, the report
points out that less than 100 banks
control over so per cent of the wealth
of the 10000 financial corporations
in the United States, while they con
troll, in effect, IL of the non-finan-
cial corporations.
"Yet" it remarks, "while manage
ment of these strongholds of wealth
affects the lives and prosperity of
millions, practically no planning has
been directed toward the prevention
of unemployment, equitable distribu-
ton of returns from point production,
the recognition of equities %accruing
from the investment of labor in pro-
duction, or to secure that balance in
progress necessary to stable pros
perity."
The report says that workers
wage and salary loss this year has
been $25 1000, 900 900, and suggests
that in comparison with this sum the
raising of $500,O0O 900 for hunger
relief, from all sources, seems small
indeed. 1t makes no definite demand
for federal appropriations, but begs
for generous donations by the rich,
"as a debt due the nation"
Unemployment insurance on a state
by state basis is urged. The report
demands that the funds be raised by
a direct charge on the industries,
and that the workers be exempted
from payments into the insurance
funds. All funds should, it declares,
be held, invested and administered
by the states. Private insurance in
this field would be barred, and trade
unionists would be safeguaried
against being deprived of insurance
when they refused to take jobs under
unfair conditions.

ued hardship and suffering. During
all this period it has manifested
qualities of self-possession and self
restraint which have challenged the
admiration Of it's many friends. 1t
is inconceivable that Congress would
add to the suffering which Labor
has endured by imposing upon it the
additional burden which it would be
called upon to bear in case Congress
passes sales tax legislation.
'The issue is clearly drawn. The
question is shall the wealth Of the
nation bear its proper share of the
tax burden or shall it be transferred
through the enactment of sales tax
legislation to the homes, the fire
sides, the earnings, and the lives of
the poor, the masses of the people,
many of whom are forced to forego
the bare necessities of life?

instance fight as never before to

Mr.. Green pointed out that when
Cord, whose company manufactures
airplanes and airplane equipment,
operated the Century Air Lines, he
reduced the pay of the pilots below
a living wage. He c~ontrasted this
unpatriotic act with the friendliness
for labor shown by the management
of the Aviation Corporation.
Mr.. Green's letter to Mr.. Cohu
follows:
1.-THE public press within the last

ton to the attempt which is being
made by Mr.. E. L. Cord to dominate

industry through a higher wage scale
and a shorter work day.
AS a major step toward restoring
the lost power of the workers to bar
gain effectively for a fair division
of profits, the report urges the n
actment of a federal law requiring
corporations and others engaging in
interstate m to operate under
federal licenses. Such licenses would
establish a control somewhat similar
to that under which steam railroads
have been placed. 1t would include
a clause safeguarding the right of
labor union organization.

at is immaterial," O'Connell and
Frey point out, whether the CON
troll now exercised by bankers over
corporation policy was the result of
careful planning. A generation
ago the average wage Garner dealt
with his employer directly, through
personal contact or through trade
union organization. Now in
thousands of instances the board of
directors is unable to determine what
its industrial policy will be until it
has secured the permission or APP
proval of a great banking institu-
ton.
"This condition, from which we
cannOJ escape at present, makes col
lective bargaining, so far as the
manufacturing and other large en-
ploying corporations are concerned,
a graver problem, a more difficult
one, than any III trade union move
ment faced in connection with col
lective bargaining a generation ago."
Much of the report is devoted to
the economics of the shorter work
day and the economics of overtime
and of wages. 1t emphasizes the
point that the vast over-capitalization
and the collapse under which the
country is now suffering would have
been impossible had there been a
sane distribution of the profits of

 General industrial conditions thru out Alaska in 1881 reflected more or less closely than conditions in the States. though the severity of the de- pression in Alaska was by no means sq acute. As result the mining in- dustry as whole was slowed down, and. the search for ore deposits. and development of mines, others yy than those whose ore was primarily valu- able forged, was suspended or ma terielly cnrtxiled. This condition was the sinevitahla outcome of the ex- tremely lowprres that prevailed for all of the mineral commodities except gold. For instanees the average sell ing price of copper in 1881, according to the Bureau of Mines. was 8.3 cents

PASTURE

-
This is a good reason Of the
year for dairymen to be looking
around and observing pastures al
ready established on the places Of
neighbors if they do not have one
established themselves. In the last
two weeks we have observed a
number Of pastures in various
parts of the county.
MIR. Leo Sadler at Prosser, for
instance, has a blue grass and clo-
yer pasture on which he is pastur-
ing about eight head of stock.
This happens to be located on
ground a part of which is rather
shallow and with not too much
water available, which makes it q
little difficult for him to maintain
good growth of grass. However,
this land undoubtedly is devoted to
the best use that could be made
of it. Fertilizer check on this par

SWEET CLOVER AS AN
ORCHARD COVER CROP

When sweet clover, as an or
chard crop, is mentioned there is
still a good many who are not at
all in sympathy with this combin-
alton. L. A. Tweedt, Kennewick,
however, is not one of these. Incl
dentally we might say that one
of the best prune crops that we
have seen this year, is that on the
farm of A. I. Smith, and which is
being worked by Mr.. Tweedt, and
which has been seeded to sweet
clover now for three years. A good
stand has not yet been secured
over the entire orchard. Mr..
Tweedt reports that the trees
have looked so much better right
from the start where the sweet
clover was planted, that he has no
hestancy at all in the use of the
crop, although there is a little diff
ficulty in working the sweet clo-
yer down. He has tractor, how
ever, and with this and plank
he does not have much difficulty
in getting the crop down to where
he can get around thru the orch
ard nicely. He is trying to get the
crop established in the peach and
pear orchard as well as in the
prunes. Mr.. Tweedt has also used
some amomnium sulphate in con-
nection with the sweet clover.
We believe that one of the
greatest beneficial effects in the
sweet clover in tn orchard is it's
deep-rooted habit and the opening
up of the soil when these roots de-
cay after the two years of growth.
Such deep root also has a tend
ency to bring to the surface min
eral elements from below. Mr..
Tweedt is so well satisfied with
the crop that he states that he
would like to have it established
thruout all of the orchard on the
place.

high nitrogen application is neces-
sary in order to keep blue grass
and clover in good growing con-
dition. This year Mr.. Sadler has
fenced the pasture in two parts
and has been having rotation graz
ing, narrowing the pasture inn
mediately following the removal
of stock from one part to the 9TH
err. If manure is available undoubt-
eddy some of the best fertilizers
of ra pasture of this kind would
be a heavy application Of manure,
preferably put on with q manure
spreader.
Mr.. C. f. Fletcher at Richland
has good young sweet clover
pasture coming on which will as
sure him good pasturage for the
fall months. Mr.. Fletcher, however,
complains that during the two
years Of sweet clover on his sandy
soil the sweet clover does not give
good pasturage for great length of
time. The question of seeding of a
grass mixture into this either very
early in the spring or late in the
fall Of the preceding year so as to
give an abundance of pasture in
the year is being considered.
Austin Brothers at Allard have
a sweet clover pasture which is
being maintained as a permanent
pasture year after year just thru
the natural reseeding which takes
place. This is the one place in the
county where we have seen this
successfully worked out, but the
soil type is rather heavy and we
believe that this has much to do
with the success of this practice.
They maintain enough stock on
the pasture to keep it well pas
tured down and the pasture is in
just one field.
Mr.. Ole Brue at Kennewick has
grass pasture which was seeded
to q grass mixture and sweet clo-
yer several years ago, and in
which the sweet clover has been
crowded out. This grass pasture
divided into two fields and where
rotation grazing is followed is
giving very good pasturage to the
small dairy yard and other live
stock on the place. Mr.. Brue is
very well satisfied with this pas
ture.
C. G. Campbell, Kennewick, has
a very well established blue grass
pasture in which he follows rota-
ton grazing. This is probably one
of the most successful blue grass
pastures in the county. Mr.. Camp
bell, however, has a pump as well
as securing water from the ditch
district, and thus has no trouble in
securing good growth.
A J. Thompson, Kennewick,
has seeded down a mixed grass
pasture this year which promises
to be well established by another
year and wrom which he has been
getting some pastureage this sea-
son.
o. ii. Rider, Kennewick, has two
pasture lots, one seeded to Ladino
and the other to sweet clover from
which he is getting very good pas
turage.
In talking with farmers using
land for pasturage they all seem to
be very well satisfied with the re-
suit that they are getting and feel
that the establishment Of . pas
ture very often on land which is
not too well adapted to other crops
is one of the best ventures which
the dairy farmer can make.
