The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1934-03-02

The law, according to Mr..
Ralston, provides that regis
tratiOn officers shall be ap-
pointed from members of the
Democratic and Republican
parties, as chosen by the
respective county chairmen,
and that the number shall be
equal from each party.
The county clerk IN his discretion
= may designate the total number Of
such registration officers, Mr.. Raj
ston further explained, whether it
be from two to 600 or more, and it
also is discretionary with the clerk
as to the territory in which such
Officers shall operate and period Of
time for such operations.
Full Aid for Voters
These officers" Mr.. Ralston said
emphaticaHy, should lose their
identity as specific party men. and
they must extend 70 all voters,
without regard to such voters nor
NAL party affiliations, fullest facili-
ties to register whether the voter
be a Democrat, Republican, Social
ist, Prohibitionist or a member of
any other party.
,,oo4+o.- 0F "a o4 Do1
ston continued, the law does not
contemplate that the registering
officer shall inquire of the voter as
to his party aff1liatiOn, nor does this
law carry the same feature as the
general election law which provides
that the householder must inform
the poll taker as to the number
and names of the resident voters
Mr.. RalstOn stated that the idea
of good government upon which the
registration law is based requires
that the public be accorded fullest
opportunity to register with the
least possible difficulty and also
that such registration be most COM
plete and strictly impartial.
Duties to Be Divided
The county clerk said that the
duties and services of officers must
be divided as equitably as possible
in as large a county as Marion and
further emphasized that response
bilities Of registration must be de-
finitely chargeable and not hap
hazard and subject to criticism Of
the general public or a political
party"
ITO attain this satisfactory state
of affairs" said Mr. RalStOn. I
have directed that a Republican
and Democrat shall be assigned
to each one of the 328 voting pre-
cincts and I have authorized these
officers personally to call at resi-
dence of voters. Hours of such call
have not been limited.
This" Mr.. RalstOn added. in
sures a better and more convenient
opportunity for every one to regis
ter. as compared to a past registra-
ton law which compelled the voter

without a mandate order from the

This developed yesterday when
Assistant District Attorney David

TOTAL ECLIPSE
To BE STUDIED

In an effort to obtain informa-

eclipse of the sun, which will
occur in mid-Pacific Ocean Feb
ruary IA, the Naval Observatory
in Washington today asked mas
ters of merchant marine vessels
which will be in the area to CO.
operate with them and forward
their findings.
Capt. J. F.. Hellweg, Superin-
tendent of the Naval Observatory,
pointed out that the total eclipse
will be visible only within rela-
lively narrow path, and will be
difficult to observe from points
other than midocean.
The eclipse will begin off the
Malay Peninsula and end off the
Alaskan coast. An unusual fea-
ture will be that it will end the
day before it begins. This is due
to the fact that it crosses the in
ternational dateline.

Strike Crisis Unprecedented in u. S.
Labor History

A strike crisis thought to be unprecedented in
u. S. labor history faced the country in late
May.
It has been IS years since there had been a
general strike in America, yet in at least three
cities general strike were threatened.
In Minneapolis, a strike of 5000 truckmen
suddenly took on the nature of war when the re-
dictionary city administration swore in hundreds
Of special police, made up of businessmen who
hated labor enough to carry clubs and guns to
break a strike, and thugs who love trouble. Half
the labor movement of the city has voted a gen
eral strike and the leaders of the other half are
urging it. Troops and police are massed to
smash the strike.
In Toledo, in a strike ignored by the newspap-
ers of the country until troops were ordered out
and the Electric Auto-Lite plant nearly destroy
ed by fighting and fires, a third of the unions
had voted a general strike by May "a and others
were expected to follow. Again police and
troops were massed to smash the strike but
workers answered blow for blow.
In San Francisco, when troops were threaten
ed as a result of the spreading of the waterfront
strike, the labor movement served notice that a
general strike would follow the calling of the
militia.
Behind this sweep of fighting spirit are several
factors The workers are bitterly disappointed
that employers continue c~hiseling under the
NRA; wages do not go up as rapidly as prices;
the standard of living steadily declines; and now
the country faces a collapse of employment in
basic industries and therefore in all industries.
Unprecedented militancy has answered these
threats. Near Birmingham, 5000 iron miners
remain on strike despite the raids on their homes
by deputies and every effort at strikebreaking
by the steel companies. In Toledo, in a court
hearing on an injunction the strikers turned the
courtroom into a strike meeting and when the
judge ordered the room cleared the deputies
didn't dare move. In Birmingham thousands of
workers surrounded a courtroom in which lead
es were to be jailed for "vagrancy" - and the
prisoners went free. In Minneapolis, the strik-
ers swept the streets clear of special police as a
broom sweeps trash.
In early May, Sec. of Labor Frances Perkins
had said: "There isn't a first-class strike in
America" But she wasn't repeating that in
late May.
Montana labor news., 1934-06-14
General Johnson and Labor

Much has been made Of General Johnson's at
titude toward strikes in the Copper and Steel
Industries. This should not come as surprise
to those who know General J%ohnson's record as
a humanitarian. As the Labor News has stat
ed, since Johnson was appointed to head the
NRA, Johnson has always been an anti-labor
man. His Moline Plow Works was one of the
bitterest opponents organized Labor ever at
tempted to fight. His heart and Soul are with
the large corporations. He is an out and out
open shopper and thinks the code wages a liv-
ing wage. When the CWA wage scales were
adopted in the South the mill owners of the
South protested because they were higher than
the Code scale. Johnson reprimanded Ickes for
his high wage scale and asked why Ickes didn't
consult him before setting the CWA wage scales.
Ickes is reported as saying why didn't you con-
suit me before adopting your lousy Code scales"
Ickes used the proper word in describing all that
Johnson has done in the NRA. He has approx
ed Lousy wage scales and created Lousy work
ing conditions. 1t has been the attitude of the
"loud-shouting' General that has led to the strik-
es in the automobile, steel and copper industries.
Despite protests from every angle he has con-
tinued to make profits safe and larger for the
coupon clippers and keep the worker in a state
OF peOnage.
The words of Johnson bear little weight among
those who have the interests Of human rights at
heart. Each time he speaks the corporations
laugh with glee and the price of stocks jump a
little higher. If Roosevelt is sincere in his eff
forts to relieve unemployment and increase pur-
chasing power Tohson won't be connected with
the New Deal much longer for if johnson con
tinues in his present way the Roosevelt admin
~istration and its so-called New Deal will collapse
