HITLER WOULD DESTROY
TRADE UNIONISM

Hitler apparently plans to destroy
German trade unionism, unless it con-
sents to become mere adjunct of his
national socialist" party. The Brit
ish labor party charges that the Nazi
dictatorship is seeking to suppress the
labor movement in all its manifesto
tions, and news from Germany indi-
Gates there is good basis for the
charge. German trade unionism is
strong and may be depended upon to
put up a good fight. Labor the world
over is watching the situation with
keen interest, and hopes that the Ger
man workers will successfully defend
their rights.
Germans who have refused to bow
the knee to the tyrannical Hitler re-
gime deserve much credit. They face
ostiaciSh, persecueioii, All soils VI
abuse and even death, in many cases.
Yet great numbers are true to demo-
cratic principles and are standing
firmly for what they believe to be
right. Among them is DR.. Paul
Schwartz, German consul at New
York city, who was recently forced
out of his position by Hitler. DIR.
Schwartz frankly proclaimed him.
self an enemy of the Hitler dicta-
torship, and that under no circum-
stances would he give it his approval

WAGE CUTTING NOT THE
REMEDY

The Independent Laundry, of San
Francisco, one of the largest laundries
in Northern California, believes there
should be no reduction in the mini
mum wage standards set for women.
In a letter to the state industrial
welfare commission, the laundry
said:
We believe that the highest pos
sible standard of wages in commu-
nifty the greater the purchasing power
OF the average individual, hence a
more prosperous upswing in the bus
mess cycle. Wage cutting cannot
solve the deplorable conditions con-
fronting the entire nation at the pres
ent hour"
If there were more business con-
Germs with the same view as the San
Francisco laundry, this country would
be better off.

bers doing the rubber stamp act and
voting for it without knowing any
thing about it or what it really meant.
The bill was ostensibly designed to
prevent publication of confidential
matter received by the state depart
ment from foreign nations. 1t could
be used to virtually seal government
operations from the public, as it
would prohibit any government en-
ploye from giving out information
without authorization of competent
authority" In practice this would
mean that government officials could
refuse to tell of their activities un-
less authorized by the president to
speak. This would give dictatorial
control over publication of govern
ment business.
No possible justification can be
urged for so drastic a measure. 1t
would be far better to have some
confidential matter made public than
to adopt this proposed censorship. The
senate will serve the nation by kill
ing the bill, or at least modifying it
to prevent it from being used as a
press gag.

RAILROAD MANAGEMENT

The organized labor movement has
contended time after time that much
of the present financial predicament
of the railroads is due to the misman-
agement of the railway executives.
Confirmation of this claim now
comes from John F. Harris, director
of the Southern Pacific Company and
of the New York, New Haven & Hart
ford railroad.
In discussing the advantages of the
proposed government czar for the
railroads, politely called mediator"
or "co-ordinator," Mr.. Harris de-
clares that such an official endowed
with adequate authority could save the
railroads from S100,00o,000 to $780,
100000 annually through elimination
of duplicated facilities and services.
Duplicated railway facilities and
services do not fall into place like
mamma from heaven fell on the Is
raelites. They are established and in
stalled by the orders of the railway
executives themselves. Now these
same executives admit that the facil-
tiles and services are not essential
to transportation and should be abol-
ishd. And they are such bunch of
anarchistic inefficients that they
can't do the scrapping themselves but
must run to the government for
dictator!
When the czar effects the millions
of savings predicted by Mr.. Harris,
the entire amount should be devoted
to restoring the wage slashes imposed
on the railway employees many months
ago.

THE THIRTY-HOUR WEEK
BATTLE

President Roosevelt has indicated
through Secretary Perkins, that he
will not approve the Black 30-hour
week bill if it contains a section for
bidding the import of goods made by
workers employed more than 80 hours
week
If foreign goods made by starva-
tion labor working any old hours, can
be imported, much of the point of a
domestic 30-hour week will be lost.
Presidential opposition is by nc
means the only opposition. Employ
ers, bankers and financial columnists
are pounding away at the .30-hour
week every day. They have always
fought every advance.
America has more than 10000 ,O0O
unemployed. 1t is time America made
the unemployment of these workers
its first and immediate concern. 1t
is time the hokum of employers was
clamped down and silenced. 1t is time
Wall street bankers took holiday
from butting into the control of in
dustry. A lot of those fat lice ought
to be deported anyhow.
Money is opposing the 3O-hour
week. Humanity needs it as a matter
Of preservation-as matter of the
one way to life.
Labor has not chosen the political
road to the 30-hour week, but bankers
and employers have blocked every
other road. NOW LET US HAVE
IT!

parents of deceased employees after
