Meakin said he had no intention of
removing the offending line and con-

it without merit. Up to noon today no
request for a warrant had been made

Policewoman Agnes Farrell, said to
have been the one who objected, refused
fatty to discuss the matter.

REBUILDING AMERICA

1T is gratifying to learn that the government
4 proposes to ignore timid advice and launch
its s33oO,ooo,oOO public works program under
full steam as provided for in Section 2 of the
recovery act.
Budget worries in connection with financing
the bonds can be met by the next congress if
necessary. Should present taxes prove made
quate, new revenues can be raised as Senator
Edward P. Costigan suggests by increasing the
estate and gift taxes to bring in as much as
900 year.
"A schedule of graduated taxes upon es-
tates and gifts running up to rs per cent of
estates and up to Sc per cent of gifts in excess
of $50,000o0O will prove ample, if other taxes
lag, to insure revenue to carry out the public
works program congress has ordered" said
Senator Costigan.
Quite as gratifying are evidences that this
great program is to be something more than
a wild spending bee Wisely, Budget Director
Lewis Douglas is scanning state projects so
that federal money will be loaned only to
states in sound financial condition.
Wisely, President Roosevelt is insisting that
only socially useful projects be undertaken
More important than any consideration is a
determination that this vast project be directed
to rebuild the republics physical plant to con-
form to changing national ideals
If this is done, every public dollar spent
will be seed that will flower into many dol
lars of private spending.
The amazing migration of new families back
to the soil in the last three years is too sgnif-
cant a trend to ignore. Congress sensed the
force of this land hunger by setting aside
$25,00O,0Oo to settle people on subsistence
farms.
Roads bridges, power plants, transmission
lines and housing projects should be built with
this movement away from overcrowded cities
in mind. Conservation, erosion control, recla-
nation, and other works should be started
with view toward meeting the needs of de-
centralized industrial system
Cities should be made more accessible to
auto travel the grandiose raising of sky
scrapers abandoned; the mass housing Of
workers in downtown tenements avoided.
In this way we shall be spending not only
to make wages, but to open new social from
tiers.

The case of the Lowell committee against
Sacco's aibi thus fell ANONYMOUSLY to the
ground. Did the Lowell report reveal this
fact? 1t did not. II was smoked out Of DR..
Lowell by the famous New York lawyers who
edited the report of the trial for Henry Holt.
On Dec. 8, 1928, more than year after the
men had been electrocuted, he confessed to
these editors that the facts were as set forth
above. In his frigidly impartial history Of this
famous case, Osmond K Fraenkel comments
on the above incident as follows:
1T is difficult to escape the conclusion that
in It's treatment of Sacco's alibi the Lowell
committee was not actuated by the impartial
ity and open nindedness which the outside
world had right to expect. The conduct
of the chairman of the committee, President
Lowell, in his conduct of the examination and
in his colleagues with counsel, seems that of
partisan seeking to vindicate a positions
rather than that of an impartial investigator"

LABOR'S RIGHTS TESTED

ONE of the things the events of the sum-
~ mer are bound to show us is just how
progressive-or. if you prefer the word, how
radical-the national administration really is
SO far, its actions and policies ought to
satisfy the most liberal of citizens 1t has put
progressives in important government posi-
tons. It has gone ahead with such progress
sive programs as government operation of
Muscle Shoals.
Most important of all, it has erected a
vast framework which is the very essence of
daring reogressivism for control of industry,
expansion of employment and raising wages
and commodity prices
What remains to be seen is how it will act
under that framework.
The tip-off on this is very likely to come
in connection with the administrations atti-
tude toward organized labor under the indus
trial control law.
In its outlines, that law is all that the most
ardent progressive could desire. Every worker
Is to be free to join labor union of his own
choosing
He is to get direct representation in all
disputes over pay. hours, and other working
conditions, before government board, en-
powered to make its rulings stick.
But there are rumblings along the horizon.
Some of the very largest industries in the
country never have had any use for organized
labor, and spokesman for certain of these
industries have been limiting pretty broadly
that they don't propose to change their policy
now, no matter what the new law says
Some of them are working feverishly to
organize dummy company unions, by means
of which they could thwart their employees
desire for self-expression in labor disputes.
Others are evicting employees who join unions
and backlisting men who try to organize
them.
Before very long one of these industrialists
is going to collide head-on with the industrial
recovery law-and then We shall see just how
progressive our administration really is.
If the administration sdesteps, ducks, or
evolves a meaningless compromise which
leaves the open-shop toryism of the industrial
giants essentially unchanged it will brand it's
progressivism as fraudulent.
If, on the other hand, it stands boldly toe
to toe with the reactionary employers and
starts battling to make the law mean what it
says it means-then it will justify the hopes
of the people who voted it into power last
November.

TUESDAY. JULY II. 1893.
THE FIRST RECOVERY CODE

OK months ago this country would have
~ laughed to scorn prediction that July
would see child labor wiped out in cotton tex
tile mills, the stretch-out abolished, the mill
village on the way to the scrap heap, 1929
wages guaranteed to unskilled laborers for
the shortest work week they ever have known,
the right to join labor unions no longer ques-
toned
Yet this has come to pass with President
Roosevelts signature to the cotton textile code.
So quietly has this revolutionary change
in the economic and social structure Of the
country taken place that it is only by wrench
ing our minds back a little to the misery of
former days, to the bloody strikes of Marion,
Elizabethtown, Danville, and other mill
towns to the stark suffering of these later
years, when all the hours man or woman
could work would not bring enough to live
on, that We comprehend the significance of
this new order in great industry.
The cotton textile code does not establish
a Utopia for mill workers. The wages it pro-
vides are not enough for decent living Yet
it represents such long step forward toward
sane economic adjustment that it iustifes real
hope for the future.
It's $12 and $13 minimum wages are fixed
with a definite understanding that they may
be raised at any time, and will be as soon as
conditions permit, It's forty-hour week, also,
is flexible, and may be shortened if employ
ment lags.
It's limit on production promises stabiliza-
ton OF employment. The President, before he
signed the code. plugged loopholes by which
it easily might have been nullihed.
The code adopted for cotton textiles
should convince other industries that their
own well-being calls for similar agreements
under the recovery law at the earliest pos
sible time

Russia had precious little interest In cur
rency sterilization measures and not much
more interest in trade embargoes or tariff

But while the other nations involved were

points, the Russians settled their quarrel with
England, effected a new pact smoothing out

Of recognition by the United States.
For the other delegates the conference was

made the most of it.

Yet, with seventeen million men
unemployed with other millions on
part time, four million children have
been snatched from the cradle and
stolen from their play to be fed to
predatory forces that coin their blood
into gold for the profit of incompet-

These children work from ten to
sixteen hours day. six days of the

IMAGINARY FOES

THE chief flaw in the armor of American
pacifiSm is its readiness to joust with i'm
aginary foes instead of real ones. Our pacifsts
crusade for petty and imaginary causes with
the same vigor that marks their attacks on the
munition makers, the ultramilitarists, and the
flag-waving patriotic societies.
This is mistake. If the pacifists hope to
weed out the evils of militarism, they should
concentrate on major issues and stop wasting
their ammunition on host of petty causes.
The fact that they have not done so ex-
plains why the pacifist movement has not made
more Roadway in this country.
Typical of these crusades against imaginary
foes is the present fight the Women's Interna-
tional League is making against use of army
officers to direct the work of the civilian
servation corps
In letter to Conservation Director Robert
Fechner, the league makes a stern protest
against this practice. 1t contends that the army
officers are unequipped to lead civilians in
peaceful activities, that the army will take adj
vantage of the opportunity to glorify itself and
to make militarists out of the 100000 youths in
the G. c. G. and that civilians should be placed
in authority in the forest camps. 1t particularly
calls for civilians to train the C. c. c. in citi
zenship.
In this case it seems that the Women's In
ternational League is jousting with an imagi-
nary foe.
Certainly, civilian leadership of civilians is
better provided such leadership is readily
available
But it would have cost Uncle Sam millions
of dollars to set up separate organization to
handle the G. c. c. 1t would have required
thousands of trained civilian leaders equip
ment, and camps to say nothing of food and
clothing.
All this has been provided by the army at
little extra cost. Six thousand officers-trained
to handle large bodies of men-have been as
signed to the forest army to supervise its work
Army camps and equipment have been used,
thus saving the government further millions of
dollars.
AS to the leagues fears that the army will
try to militarize the c. c. c., they seem to be
unjustifled. Perhaps the army has that idea in
mind, but certainly it is far from the thought
of President Roosevelt and administration lead
ers In fact, the army has been warned to re-
strict all drills to minimum, just enough to es-
tablish crude discipline. And, so far as is
known, the army faithfully has carried out
these orders.
Instead of censure an observer would think
that the army is deserving of praise for the
efficient way it has whipped the forest con-
servation corps into shape.
Within a few weeks, 25Oo0o youths have
been recruited from the cities and towns of
America, clothed and trained and distributed
among the various forests for six months Of
healthful and much needed work.
That is an achievement that even pacifsts
should not hesitate to praise

well aware of his own shortcoming
and Of his kinship with fools. He
must not laugh at, but with, his
fellows.
And the prohibitionists can not
afford this snag. Their idea is ex-
cellent-for gentle laughter is the
most effective destructive force-but
I am afraid they can't carry it
through.
If they have not been able dur
ing the last five years to let out
few merry ha-has at themselves,
then it's going to be impossible for
them to induce laughter over any,

Yet their risibilities should be de-
veloped. For history will record
their regime as the biggest Joke OF

The people are interested in the
London economic conference and
can see the fight the gold bloc is
waging. Yet not one of the gold
bloc nations is a producer of gold
Shows something wrong. 1t seems
strange that the nations that could
produce gold if revaluated, as Con-
greSs allows in the gold clause, must
listen to this gold bloc and see the
meeting fail, when all that is needed
is for this government to revaluate
and order gold recoined.
Most of our delegates are sound
money men and can't get going at
top speed when talking about an adj
justed gold dollar. They used to
look upon it as a 50-cent dollar if
spoken of in congress. Now they
must face the world and accept an
adjusted gold dollar that will stand
for hundred years or longer and
will stabilize currencies of all ma
lions.

was not even given them to talk on,
so it seems.

reached, and they fail to reduce the

The world must revaluate gold to
