LONDON, July 4-In a bitter
diatribe against Fascism and Com
munism delivered at Pilgrims ban
quet, DR.. Nicholas Murray Butler.
president of Columbia University New
York, yesterday urged the English
speaking peoples of the world to unite
in a fight against governments which
rule by compulSiOn.
IF liberty is crushed by compulsion
in the generation which lies ahead of
us it can only be because the English
speaking peoples have failed in the
great task" DR.. Butler said.
1T may be possible, OF course, that
We are all to become another ancient
Athens or another ancient Rome, but
/, for one, venture to doubt it,
Urges Halt TO Fascism.
The rising tide Of Fascism and other
forms Of government, where individual
and political liberties are not per-
mitted. he said, should be halted
quickly by the cooperative efforts of
the English speaking peoples
DR.. Butler asserted that govern
mentS the world over should be sub
Jected to public opinion and not pub
liz opinion subjected tO the govern
mentS.
The English speaking peoples have
never had SO great ID responsibility
resting upon them as at this moment. -
he continued. Those principles Of
social order and of government which
they had supposed were slowly con-
quering the world and would eventu-
ally conquer the world are now almost
everywhere held IN check.
In such 4 situation it Is impera-
tive that the Eng speaking world
should exert to the utmost its capacity
for understanding. self-coutrol
and SelI-improyement and that It
demonstrate by action that liberty
as Civilizations corner stone is not
really weakened or destroyed. but
must be strengthened from year to
year and from generation TO genera
ton IN order TO bear It's great
burden"

clared the corporation of the TWO

Without such aid and collabora-

Davis asserted that Lord Derby
typihes the average Eugllshman to
Americans.
England and the United States
stand side by side and act together
to prevent war" Lord Derby said in
responding to the toast If they
do stand together war will henceforth

tion camps have enrolled 10000 more.
In these three services, more than L.
100000 were employed in May, re-
ducing those entirely without work
to 100000. The government emer-
gency payroll in these services is over
$80,0O0,000 month.
"Need is greater among the mil
lions unemployed than it was at this
time last year. In April, 1888, A.
475, 900 families were on relief rolls;
in April this year the figure was ap-
proxlmately 3,85O,000, with about
100000 on the ERA work program, or
a total of 100000. Federal payments
for relief were $73,OOO,O0O last April,
compared to $150,000,O00 for relief
and ERA work program this year.
The increased cost is due to greater
need and to the improvement in relief
payments"

and the North American Rayon Cor
poration," Mr.. Lancaster said. "We
are primarily interested in relieving
unemployment by sticking to the
NRA codes of fair dealing. 1t is our
purpose to stamp out the tendency
of a man who has regular job from
working at other or part-time jobs,
and keeping someone else from be-
ing employed. There are too many
men out of work and walking the
streets now."

PROBE SWEATSHOP
CONDITIONS

Ottawa, OMIT is reported that
the parliamentary committee which
has been investigating Canadian
practices, has uncovered sweatshop
conditions Of a startling nature in
Quebec province and special hearings
to gain further facts will continue.
The bi-party committee, which is
headed by the minister of trade and
commerce, H. H. Stevens, has un-
earthed so much evidence Of unethical
trade practices that it is believed
the outcome will be the setting up
in Canada of something like the NRA.
R. P. Sparks, representing the Ma
tional Fair Trade Council, urged be-
fore the committee regulation OF
prices, business practices and labor
standards by means Of trade asso-
citation. This would involve repeal OF
antitrust laws and establishment OF
a trade board to supervise the work
ings of the trade associations.

Washington, D. C. (ILNS)-Re-
cent workers elections at steel
plants, at which the workers are said
to have voted Overwhelmingly for
company unions, were fear votes, not
representing the true sentiments of
the men, President William Green, of
the American Federation of Labor
charged at statement issued here
eff the returns of workers cleo
tions as announced by the steel cor
porations, are correct, a perfect state
Of satisfaction prevails among the
workers employed in the steel indus
try" President Green said. He con-
tinued: cit was announced that more
than ninety per cent of the workers
voted for the adoption of the COM
pany union plan.
"But the existence of this alleged
state of satisfaction as well as the
analysis made of these elections by
the steel corporations management,
are contradicted by the facts. The
elections held were company union
elections; they were company con-
trolled and company dominated. The
election machinery was set up by the
steel corporations. The actual voting
took place inside the steel manufac-
turing plants. The management and
the bosses were everywhere in evi-
dence and the elections were held in
a company union atmosphere. There
could be no other result than the re-
suit announced. The workers were
given to understand that the corpora
tions wished the company union plan
approved and the workers clearly un-
| derstood how the company wished
| them to vote.
The vote, therefore, represents a
vote of fear, of coercion, and Of in
timidation. 1t was yes vote cast by
men who because of fear were COM
| PEELED to vote YES The fact that the
steel corporations management re-
fuses to permit an election to be held
under the direction, control and super
vision of the National Labor Board
an independent, impartial government
agency, shows that the corporations
would not dare to run the risk of per-
mitting their workers to vote freely
and Independently, separate and apart
from company union domination and
control, where the workers could by
secret ballot vote in accordance with
their Judgment and the dictates Of
their conscience.
i "A petition signed by fifty per cent
of the steel workers employed in the
4 Carnegie plant at Duquesne, Pennsyl
1 vania, was presented to the Nationa
/ Labor Board short time ago, re
questing that an election be held al
provided for in the presidents exec
utive order of February /. Becaus.
of the hostile opposition of the Unitet
States Steel Corporation this petition
was never granted and the election
asked for was never held.

MUSICIANS
To Aid Canadian Strikers In
Radio Battle

Cleveland, Ohio (ILNS) - The
American Federation of Musicians
will give all possible help to the
Canadian Musicians Union in the
unions strike against the Canadian
radio commission, President Joseph
Weber, of the American Federation
said in a statement issued here at
the close of the federation's conven-
ton. The convention voted to place
the matter in Weber's hands.
"But," the statement said, 'we will
not attempt to dictate to them as to
how the Canadian union will settle
their strike. They will settle their
differences without interference from
the American Federation of Musi-
cians."
The federation offered readmissior
with full autonomy to New York
Local 802, removed in 1921 for gross
violation of federation laws" on the
conditions that it "repudiate the
communistic element" in it's ranks
and repudiate statements that the
federation was a "racketeering" or.
ganization.
All officers were reelected, Web

dent.

BIG NEWSPAPERS
Fight Code Ban on Child
Labor

/ Washington, D. C. (ILNS)-Circu-
lation managers of big metropolitan
newspapers urged continued employ
ment of child workers by the news
papers at a NRA hearing on proposed
amendments to the codes of the gra-
phic arts industries and the news
paper publishing business.
Various managers testified that to
forbid "child labor" in newspaper de-
livery is absurd" Some said they
want boys between 10 and Ia years
of age and said that small boys do
the best work.
Representatives of labor groups,
welfare organizations and other bod
les interested in the protection of
children appeared in support of the
proposed amendments, which provide
that no establishment shall employ
persons under 16 in mechanical or
manufacturing duties. 1t is provided
that those between IA and 16 years
of age may be employed in "other
than mechanical and manufacturing
duties" not to exceed three hours
day between 7 o'clock in the morn
ing and z in the afternoon. 1t is
specified that this must be done with
out interference with the hours of
day school.
One Publisher for Amendment
David Stern, publisher of the Phila-
delphia Record and the New York
Evening Post, was the only publisher
to favor the amendment. He de-
clared the proposed restrictions would
work no hardship on the publishers,
but would be distinct benefit"
His only criticism, he added, is that
the amendment is mot strong
enough He said that the minimum
age should be fixed at Is years.
For the publishers to agree to such
| limitations as are proposed would be,
he declared, a small contribution to
the New Deal, saying that without
such an amendment in their code the
newspapers are in no position to
, criticize constructively those other in
dustries which persist in the employ
ment of child laobr.
''The small boy is convenience
but not necessity to the newspaper
business" Stern said, adding, "and
Pm inclined to think he's detri-
ment."
Endorsement of the proposed
amendment was given by Courtnay
Dinwiddies, general secretary of the
national child labor committee. He
declared that in the first place there
is no necessity for the employment OF
small children and their working long
hours, and, in the second place the
distribution of newspapers by young
children is note a desirable occupa-
ton.

UTILITY
Ordered to Reinstate Dis
charged Men

Washington, D. C. (ILNS)--The
National Labor Board has made pub
lie it's ruling in the complaint of a
Federal Labor Union against the Illi-
nois Power and Light Corporation
which had not complied with a deci-
sion of the Chicago Regional Labor
Board recommending reinstatement of
certain employees. The company did
not appear before either board.
The ruling recites the evidence of
"the company's continued attempts to
discourage the self-organization of it's
employees, especially during October" !"
The attempts included circulation by
the division manager of "repudia-
tions" of union membership to be
signed by employees. In December
discharges took place. The board
concludes that the company "has
preached it's obligation under the
presidents unemployment agree
ment." subsequently the company
removed it's Blue Eagle" and is not
yet operating under any code.
The board finds, eve believe that
public service corporation shout
respond to it's duty to the community
by granting appropriate restitution to
the compliments" The board, there
fore, holds, that 10 employees should
be reinstated and that two others now
re-employed should be restored to
full time employment.

Business Making No General
Effort to Put Idle Back to
Work, Labor Head Declares

Washington, D. G. (ILNS..-Busi-
ness men in general are taking no
responsibility for the 100000 un-
employed workers, making no general
effort to put them back to work, Pres
ident William Green, of the American
Federation of Labor, declared in maxi
ing public the federation's latest re-
port on unemployment.
sThe fact that more than 100000
are still without work in industry is
a basic reason for our tardy business
recovery" President Green said.
"This problem deserves first attention
from industrialists; it is not receiving
the attention needed"
President Green said that men and
women are still going back to work,
although employment gains are not so
rapid now as they were in the early
spring. He continued:
"Our unemployment estimate for
CIC COuHoIy dS WIlOlc SHoWo CIldC
nearly 100000 went back to work in
May, and trade union reports for the
first part of June show employment
still gaining. Trade union weighted
figures show 20.7 per cent of the
membership unemployed in April,
900 per cent in May (revised) and
1877 per cent in the first part of June

Gradually workers are regaining
the winter employment losses. Un-
employment in industry is not yet
back to the September, 1888, level,
for 10,267, 900 were out of work in
May, compared to 10,108,000 last
September. Employment in building
is beginning to increase, although
gains are small; nearly 10000 went
back to work in April and May, but
more than 100000 are still without
work.
"For the 10,267 900 still without
work in industry, the government is
increasing it's emergency work pro-
gram. More than $4,000 were added
to PWA payrolls in May, and the
number on the work program of the
relief administration has risen from
$4,000 at the beginning Of April to
more than 100000 at the end of May
and 9976,000 in mid-June; conserva-

KIDNAPPING
OF Union Officer Follows
Hartman Mill Closing

Hartman, Tenn. (ILNS)-Kidnap-
ping of Fred Held, vice puresident of
the American Federation Of Hosiery
Workers, by a band of armed men,
brought action from the department
of justice, which sent a representa-
tive here to investigate the situation.
Held was later released after threats
of death and a warning not to return
to Tennessee.
Held was found by searching Off
GERS after his release and went to
Chattanooga, where he told of wild
ride during which mill worker -four
ished a gun and made threats against
the union and National Administrator
Hugh Johnson.
The union officer was taken from
a train at Hartman as he was leav-
ing town. He said the mob blamed the
union for the closing of the Hartman
Hosiery Mill after the NRA withdrew
the mills Blue Eagle for violation of
the collective bargaining section of
the national industrial recovery act.
After taking Held from the train,
the kidnappers forced him to enter an
automobile and started toward Sum-
NIT county. There were five other
cars filled with members of the gang.
After going some miles, Held was
told he could go if he promised never
to return. He started along the road
and was met by officers to take him
back to Hartman. He decided against
returning and went on to Chatta-
nooga.
Officers of the American Fedora
tion of Hosiery Workers in Philadel-
phia telegraphed Gov. McAllister de-
manding a declaration Of martial law
and punishment of the kidnappers OF
Held. The governor ordered his office
to call conference to investigate the
situation.

Steel Elections Are Fear Votes
President Green Declares
Eye" Ballots Cast By Workers Under Coercion,
Labor Head Charges, Ridiculins Claims Of Big
Corporations.

"But in the announcement of the
company union election, it is alleged
that the workers of the Carnegie
Steel Company voted almost unani-
mously for the company union plan
and in conformity with company un-
ion requirements. Such a vote does
not square with the facts. If the steel
corporation management is convinced
that the steel workers want the COM
pany union plan as formulated by
the company and as prepared for the
workers by the stee / corporations
management, why are they afraid to
risk an election held under govern
mental supervision and control?"
