RELIEF BEATS BEET PAY;
WORK LAGS

DENVER-(FP)-The fact hat the
low standard Of relief is higher than
the wages paid labor in the sugar beet
fields is seriously e%ndangering the Col
orado beet crop.
For years the stockholders of the
Great Western Sugar Co. have made
millions off the work OF children OF
Mexican families in the fields, thinning
the beets in May, hoeing them in the
summer and cutting off the tops dur
ing the harvesting in the fall.
The work is contracted to a father,
the number of acres given him being
fixed by the size OF his family. Family
income has been between $500 and
5000 a year, with relief agencies in the
cities taking care of the families for
four months a year as a result.
Great Western Sugar averaged IS
per cent profits on the actual invest
ment for 20 years.

Citations charging contempt OF court
have been served on nine strikers al
leging violation OF an anti-picketing
injunction obtained by officials of the
Thomas blast furnace of the Republic
Steel Corp.
In continued efforts to break the
spirit OF the strikers, raids are staged
on their homes. -Four new victims have
been arrested in raids on Ensley, Ala,
homes and Chief OF Police Hollums OF
Birmingham has issued an inflamma-
tory statement bringing danger of race
fighting as a result. He declared that
he found resolutions demanding equal
ity for Negroes in jury service, oppor-
tunity to run for political office and
the right to vote.
The strike is being conducted by the
Init. Mill, Mine & Shelter Workers
Union. Some 5000 are out. Tension
continues to grow and anything may
happen if the present efforts to break
the strike are continued.

Home Owners Lawyer
Faces Disbarment

NEW YORK. - (FP) - Protesting
the disbarment proceedings pending in
Cleveland against Nathaniel D. Davis,
the American Civil Liberties Union de-
plored the unfair attempt 10 crush or
CARNATIONS created by the people Of
Ohio to defend their homes against
foreclosures and evictions."
Davis, as attorney for the small
Home & Land Owners Federation,
handled about 1000 cases relating to
foreclosures, refinancing and criminal
cases arising out of eviction difficult
ties. The federation has a membership
of $4,000.
According to the A. c. l.. u, Davis
has earned the bitter hostility OF re-
dictionary forces in Ohio.

Church Asks Congress
To Ban Company
Unions

NEW YORK. - (FP) - The New
York East Conference OF the Metho-
dist Episcopal Church, containing the
richest churches in the denomination,
has gone on record as opposing COM
pany unions.
In a ringing resolution asking Con-
gress to make these company-controll-
ed organizations illegal, the conference
forcefully declared for Independent
unionism," meaning independent OF en-
ployer control.
Whereas, in recent months there
has been a rapid growth Of employer
dominated company unions" the CON
ference resolution said, "and these or
CARNATIONS have become a serious men
ace to the rights Of the workers to
form independent unions and to bar
gain collectively through representa-
tives Of their W choosing, rights
which the Social Greed OF the Metho-
dist Episcopal Church declares employ
es should have, we petition our repres-
entatives in Congress to enact legisla-
ton which will make it illegal for any
corporation or company to i%ntimidate,
coerce Or unfairly influence their en-
ployes in any way to join an employer
initiated, financed or controlled or
ganization dealing with wages, hours
or grievances relating to conditions OF
work"
The conference also declared for the
rapid extension of social ownership
and democratic control OF NATURAL re-
sources, distribution, and the means Of
production, exclusive of agriculture"
1t declared that the New Deal i.
not sufficient to bring about a Christ
ian social order" opposed fascism
child labor and lynching; demanded
extension of federal relief and more
adequate treatment Of the unemployed
and urged the legislatures of New
York and Connecticut to pass law.
which would tax land held by tax
exempt corporations (mainly churches
unless the land was built upon within
two years.

COUNCIL RECOMMENDS GENERAL STRIKE VOTE
Unions to Act Upon General
Strike Vote in Near Future;
Date of Vote and Action Taken
to be Announced Later.

AT the request OF the General Strike
Committee, the Silver Bow Trades and
Labor Council recommended that a
general strike vote be taken by all the
Unions in Butte. The request was
made as a direct result of the methods
being employed by the Anaconda Cop
per Mining Company in handling the
Harry Gale hearing. 1t is evident to
every Union that Harry Gale is not on
trial but the ones on trial are the IN
ions of Butte. Anyone attending the
hearing can we'll see that Kelley's OBJ
ject is to put unionism on trial, rather
than have a hearing on a change OF
venue for Harry Gale. Since ALL.
UNIONISM is ON TRIAL the STRI-
COMMITTEE FEELS THAT
ALL UNIONS SHOULD ACT. The
delegates to the Council will take this
recommendation to their locals before
concerted action can be taken.

PICKET Line MURDER

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. ~ (FP)-In-
sistence by striking iron miners on ac-
ton has brought the arrest OF County
Marshall Grady Baker and Deputy
Sheriff Sam Arnett on a charge Of
murder in the killing of George Bell
and w. H. Ford.
Both were slain in an attack on the

it took six days to have the attackers
arrested. The officials were released

KELLY ATTEMPTS TO MAKE STOOL PIGEONS OF STRIKERS
who Is Bigger u.S.A. or U.s.. Stee|?"

under the above caption, the New York Evening Post"
last week printed the following editorial)
Once again U. S. Steel defies U. S. A.
w. A. Irwin, its president, comes out for the open shop and
the company union, and announces opposition to all other unions.
Eugene G. Grace, president Of Bethlehem Steel, joins him.
So does T. M. Gird1er, chairman of Republic Steel.
This despite the fact the National Recovery Act declares work
men have the right of collective bargaining through representa-
tives Of their own choosing.
Apparently the laws of the I. S. A. mean nothing to the mast
es of U. S. Steel.
Had workmen met in such a meeting to defy the laws OF the
country, U. S. Steel would have been the first to call the cops
or its own coal and iron police.
But for Steel to defy the Government is all in the ordinary
course of business.
U. S. Steel defed U. S. A. last summer when its captive coal
mines refused to come under the blanket code.
u. S. Steel defied U. S. A. three months ago in an arrogant
statement announcing it would resist any attempt of the Ma
tional Labor Board to hold elections Of its workers.
U. S. Steel defies U. S. A. again by announcing its intention
to disobey the collective bargaining provisions Of NRA.
President Roosevelt himself explained, on March rs, in con-
nection with the auto strike, what those provisions mean. He
said:
Reduced to plain language, Section Ia of the MIRA means
Employees have the right to organize into a group or groups.
When such group or groups are organized, then can choose
representatives by free choice, and such representatives MUST
be received collectively and thereby seek to straighten out
disputes and improve conditions of employment.
Discrimination against employees because of their labor af-
fiIations or for any other unfair or unjust reason is barred.
U. S. Steel replies: Wen do as we like"
Who rules II S. Steel or U. S. A.?
The Post" calls upon President Roosevelt to make an ex-
ample of Steel.
Compel it to permit elections of its workers.
Curb this super-business organization which has fixed prices,
paid handsome dividends, stfled competition and refused to al
low its workers to organize.
Steel is preparing for a showdown on the New Deal. 1t in
tends, if it can, to smash the whole New Deal machinery, to go
its selfish way in the future as it has in the past.
The battle against Steel is the crucial battle in the fight to re-
form our national life.
1t is up to the President to show the Twins, the Graces, the
Weirs, that U. S. A. is bigger than U. S. Steel.
"What about the Anaconda Copper Mining Coz"

Fighting to make
Jungles Safe
For John D.

NEW YORK-(FP)-The war be-
tween Paraguay and Bolivia which has
cost many thousands of lives in the
wilds of the Gran Chaco, is not being
fought to make the jungle safe for
democracy. Nor is the real reason
given in the current flare OF publicity
over this 2-year-old struggle.
The reasons are: /. Oil. z. Tin.
3. Access to the sea to export both
these commodities. Behind the COM
batants are important British and Am
erican interests.
Standard Oil has a concession Of T.
100000 acres of oil land in Bolivia and
extending down into the Chaco. Yet
it isn't wei oil land the war is fought.
Bolivia also has tremendous tin de-
posts. With these rich resources, she
is landlocked. So the tin ore is carried
over the Andes on muleback, shipped to
England to be refined and shipped back
to the United States to be used.
A glance at the map will show you
that Bolivia is far from the eastern
coast and cut off from the western by
high mountains. What is no so OBJ
vious, yet is the hub Of the whole sit
%uation, is that the Paraguay River is
so large that ocean-going steamers can
navigate it right up into the Gran
Chaco. Bolivia is fighting the battle
which has so often brought war to the
old world the struggle for an open
port.
1t is easy to stir patriotic fervor a.
mong the Bolivians about their right
to access to the world. Paraguay, with
about as much population as Buffalo,
N. Y, pours in tens of thousands of
soldiers to die defending their nations
right to keep all their Jungle territory.
So for two years the wal has gone on.
Back of little Paraguay is big Ar
gentina and back OF Argentina is Great
Britain. If the Rockefellers can de-
velop their huge, rich oil reserves in
Bolivia and ship that oil cheaply to
the world, they have a new Weapon
in the fight between Britian's Royal
Dutch Shell and Standard Oil.
Besides, the refining of tin and the
control of the world tin market is ire
m%endously profitable to Britain. If oil
is developed in Bolivia, tin may be re-
fined right on the spot where fuel is
now lacking, and shipped direct to the
United States, biggest tin consumer in
the world.
Britain's m"agnanimous gesture of
stopping the shipment Of arms to both
countries was based on the fact that
Paraguay has munitions factories, b.
livia has none. The embargo would
involve a great injustice toward" Boil
via, her Minister to the United States
say, for while Paraguay has a NUM-
ton factory and enjoys free communi-
cation to the outside world through an
international river, Bolivia does not
produce any war materials and is land
locked by her neighbors. To decree
an embargo would be to decree an easy
victory for Paraguay"
Which is a diplomats way Of saying
that tens OF thousands of lives would
be saved and the Rockefellers would
have a few less millions in their swol-
len Golfers.
