men walk up openly to sign union
membership application blanks.
But that is what lies ahead-right
at our door.
There is no funny language in the
recovery act--no tricky words.
Of course this goes tough with such
men as Schwab and Morgan and
Rockefeller and the little band of
wilful men who have been running the
big union-hating industries, including
the barons of coal in the Pittsburgh
and West Virginia districts. Mr.. Mel
lon, home from the court of st. James,
doesn't like it, and it chokes him. Let
it.
Stirring days-great and grand
days-days of change, with the tow
ers of ancient battlements falling into
the river, or the moat, or what have
you.
Why not song to Nira's halls, and
| to Nira's banners and to the whole
works?
Ancient privilege is going to the
| junk heap. They still talk about the
invisible government, and they do say
that the "men who really run the
country are sitting in the key places
of Mira" and all that. Maybe there's
some truth in it, but when we see the
| big shots of steel capitulate, then we
can know that new power rules, a
new principle is imbedded in the life
and practices of the nation.
| Once upon time man wrote a
poem like this: "Up Grand avenue
capital rides; down Grand avenue la
Dor strides" and he thought it was
swell piece, expressing civic pride.
It's that kind of thing that is, per-
haps, presently to be all washed up.
So be it--and right away.

A REAL BOOSTER

During the centennial celebration
end the review by this paper of pres
ent and past history of Camden, it
would be far from complete without
personal mention of our townsman
and friend, E. L. Huffman, publisher
and programmer of race and fair
events.
1t can be said without a dispute,
that Huff" as he is familiarly known
throughout the Middle West, has done
more in placing Camden on the map
than any other man since 1882.
Huff" is a salesman, one hundred
per cent, and he never neglects to sell
Camden. The publisher of this paper
knows, for it was none other than
E. L. Huffman that induced us to
come to Camden thirty years ago
We will acknowledge that fluff" led
us to no gold mine, but instead he
placed us in one of the finest small
towns in the nation.
Always, we will say, E. L. Huffman
will be found on the correct side of
any public movement-he is booster
through and through, and his value
as a citizen of Camden cannot be
over estimated.
The above article was taken from
The Preble County News, Camden
Ohio, and which city celebrated its
centennial last week. We doubt
whether Huff" is better known ir

The most widespread practice is the
firing of Negroes and the hiring OF
whites in their places because "the
minimum wage is too much money
for Negroes"
Memphis business men are firing
Negroes on a wholesale scale, accord
ing to the Memphis branch of the
N. A. A. C. p, holding that $14 a
week is more than a Negro should
have.
In certain sections of North Caro-
lima where Negroes form about 73 per
cent of the workers in tobacco indus
tries, the minimum wages are being
withheld from them, the N. A. A. Z.
P. is advised.
In one county in Georgia, where 40
per cent of the population is colored,
800 Negroes who had been receiving
so cents day on public work were
| fired when the NRA agreement speci-
| fed their minimum wage should be
80 cents an hour. Negroes in this
county are being re-employed as farm
labor. which is outside the NRA reg
ulation, at 35 to rs cents day, it is
reported. Nevertheless, the whites IN
the county expect return OF pros
perity despite the lack of purchasing
power among nearly half the popula-
ton of the county.
In Birmingham, Ala, 1000 retail
grocers have drawn up code which
provides a minimum wage of $6 a
week for 'Nego porters and delivery
boys"

FALSE ECONOMY

State boards of health in North
Carolina and other states have in
sisted that it is false economy to sac
rifce public health work in response
to popular clamor for reduction in
the cost of government.
A famous English statesman said
that the protection of the public
health is the most important duty of
any government. To cripple public
health work would be equivalent to

~ Where with our
we tell the truth
about many things, sometimes pro-
fOundly, sometimes flippantly,
sometimes recklessly.

Some day some bright person is
going to write song about the
Eagle that Nests in Nira's Halls, and
it ought to be wow
Everyone except the song writer's
and the march writer's has had a crack
at Mira, either to knock or to pop
ularize-and mostly to popularize.
1t doesn't seem likely that the mus
ical minds can be kept out of the pic
ture much longer.
Gen. johnson has tried to put the
kibosh on use of the word, Mira, be-
cause, so tbs said, some wit or half
wit cracked about mira. my
God, to Thee" which the Gen. didn't
like so well. So he knocked the "i"
out of Mira and made it the unpoet-
ical NRA, which has neither validity
nor euphony back of it. Now who
can get very steamed up about NRA?
But when you say, Mira, ah, there's
word to conjure with, word to
put on a flag and a word to weave
into rollicking songs, to the music of
which they will go places, needless
of consequences.
These thoughts are passed along to
Gen. Johnson with the suggestion that
psychology is a good thing to have
some of.
Changing the subject bit, here is
something to think about. If we take
it for granted at this writing that
steel is to be brought under the re-
covery act, that it is going to lose
its fight to prevent organization of
labor, then the entire industrial field
in America will be open to labor. For,
as steel goes, so goes the nation in
this conflict.
1t is perhaps not easy to visualize
nation in which the great corpora
tions at last stand back, keep off
their company thugs and put their
blacklists away in mothballs, while

WOMEN's MINIMUM WAGE LAWS

Enactment of minimum wage laws

wage provisions of MIRA codes. The
