A GROWING CONVICTION

Myron c. Taylor, chairman of the
finance committee of the u. S. Steel
Corporation, has joined in approval
of the shorter work week to stabil-
ize employment. The curtailed work
week is the remedy advocated by the
American Federation of Labor and
suggested at the early stages of the
depression.
Statisticians of the federation
showed the country that 35 hours of
work week was the maximum of
labor to be had if all formerly en-
ployed workers were to have jobs.
The steel official, in voicing his
views, takes the position that the
shortened week, rather than the short
ened day, be the base of operation,
"if it be true that industrial plants
are not destined to work at capacity
The plant will function best, he says,
ii it be operated continuously, and the
workweek, and not the work-day of
the man be shortened. 1t may be that
in this direction leisure will be found,
he adds.

observation covering many years in
the bakery business that where con-
ditions Of the workers are demoral-
lied by low wages, and long hours, the
employers find their business in the
same condition. We believe in deal
ing with organized labor as is evil
denced by the fact that we have for
long time operated the Wonder
Bread Bakery with union crew and
that we have just renewed the agree
ment."

NOT so NECESSARY

A writer in popular weekly has
been using lot of valuable space In
an endeavor to prove that when Wod-
row Wilson was desperately i'll in
1919, Mrs. Wilson largely conducted
the affairs of state and was in reality
president.
Well, what of it? This paper rises
to ask. The United States seemed
to run along pretty well, even if Mrs.
Wilson was at the helm. AS mat
ter of fact, the world would not come
to an end, nor the nation either, if
there was no president for week or
two. The belief that the world would
topple and fall into ruins if there was
not a president on the job every min
ute of the day has been assiduously
fostered, but it is without foundation
1t is hangover from the days Of
kingly power, when the common folks
believed the world would cease to re-
volve if they had no king. The worle
wags right along, regardless of presi
dents, kings and other high-placee
persons, which is good for these same
high-placed persons to remember
To recall this now and then woult
tend to becoming humility of mine
on their part.

Meanwhile a great liquor busine.

Meanwhile great liquor business
waits to be legalized and taxed.
Here is an industry, necessary to
public appetite and to public oroer,
waiting to contribute generously to
the cost of government.
Government, all full of monkey
business, fears to approach this
goodly source of wealth.
If government continues to ignore
liquor, the rum runners, bootleggers,
racketeers and gangsters will be ex-
ceedingly glad-and maybe they will
find way to contribute to the cam
paign fund of their "dry" friends.

NOW is ORGANIZING TIME

What time to organize unions!
Now as never before workers need
the protection of trade unionism.
Employers, sometimes stricken
with greed, sometimes palsied with
fear, seize upon any pretext to join
the fight to cut wages.
Cutting wages increases the inten-
sity of despair among the masses.
The employing world has gone foolish
with the idea that wage-cutting
helps. 1t helps only the pocketbook
of employers.
Organize unions as the one way
to drive sanity into the industrial
order.

DEFLATIONISTS

For over two years defationists
have been arguing that the remedy
for unemployment was more unem-
ployment, and the remedy for falling
consuming power was lowering of the
basic wage rates on which wage
Garner incomes were based.
For months the tide was held
against these theorists who believed
our economic problem could be solved
simply by reducing certain production
cost items. But the major trouble
was the failure to coordinate buying
power with production power We
had diverted too much of the revenue
from those who would have spent it
in consumption to those who spent for
investment purposes. The remedy of
the defationists only aggravates this
condition.
There are those who claim that
wage cuts are necessary to lower
prices. In conflict with this is the
steel industry. Prices remain the
same though output fell to that of
1905. Obviously wages were cut to
pay dividends. Look at railroads
granted certain increases in rates,
they still ask for lower wages.
The policy of defiation is deliberate
ly destroying investments, jobs and
confidence. Simply proposing prob
lem to a lower level does not solve it.
There are those who argue that
wages should come down (and this
after period of prosperity in which
prices steadily fell while wages rose).
However, statistics tell the story:
While costs of living have declined
IL per cent, wage Garner incomes have
declined 32 per cent; income in terms
of what they will buy have declined
% per cent Surely there is little rea-
son to argue that wage cuts will
leave workers as we'll off as they
were before the crisis.
Since 1929 the wage Garner incomes
have declined by S20,000,0 100000
Total retail trade in 1929 amounted
to $50 100000. The Importance of
worker buying power is obvious.

7 OS ANGELES, July 2l.-An in
dication of how the International
Amateur Athletic Federation will
draw its battle lines in the fight
over the suspension Of Paavo Nurmi
when 1t meets here July q to 2s, was
given today in a statement of business
before the congress.
Under the heading of bylaws" listed
in the agenda, is recommendation to
the congress to complete rule with
the following paragraph:
THE council of the federation is en-
powered to suspend. temporarily or
permanently, any member Of the fed
Grafton or any athlete violating the
amateur status
Such a move would give the fedora
ton the power Finland has insisted was
not within the jurisdiction Of the body
when President J. Sigfrid Edstrom,
Sweden, suspended Nurmi on charges
of receiving excessive travelling ex-
penses.
The Finnish Amateur Athletic Fed
Grafton said such power Is solely theirs
and Immediately absolved their distance
star of all charges of violation Of anna
teurism.
Technically, under the present Olym-
pic games set-up the I. A. A. F. pos
sesses only the power to suspend the
Finnish Amateur Athletic Federation,
which has not been done. Finland has
threatened to withdraw its entire team
if Nurmi is not permitted to compete in
the 1882 Olympics.
Just what nation protested Nurmi

States, Germany. France. Italy and
Poland all have been accused of filing
complaints to Edstrom, who considered
them sufficiently strong to bar the flying
Finn without going through the usual
formalities.
