In the fifth year of the worst depression in history
the Communist Party has failed to increase its member
ship to more than about $4,000.
It's sympathizers, according to survey made by the
magazine Fortune number half million, half of whom
live in New York City.
This is as poor record for the Reds as it is good
one for American labor.
Communism gets nowhere and will get nowhere in
America because it is alien to America in goal spirit
methods and control.

Sliding Salaries
An Inequitable System

OAAAuAS OOACAA ANO
An Inequitable System
Rapidly rising prices of food and threatened advances
in the prices of other necessities of life in Washington
should convince the skepcal of the faacy of pres
ent method of determining the salaries of Government
employees
THE CONDITIONS TO WHICH GOVERNMENT
EMPLOYEES IN THE NATIONAL CAPITAL WILL BE
SUBJECTED DURING THE WINTER AS THE RE-
SUIT OF THE CONFLICT BETWEEN THE PRICE
RISE AND CURTAILED SALARIES SHOULD PROVE
WAR CRY WHICH WILL RESULT IN THE LEGIs-
LATIvE ELIMINATION OF THE COST OF LIVING
FEATURE OF THE SALARY ACT.
Virtually every Government agency in Washington
that has to do with production is prophesyng tremen
dous increases in the cost the next few months
These increases due in part to the planned actv
tiles of the Government and in part the effect of the
mid Western drought on crops.
If the prophecies Of these Government agencies are
borne out is estimated that prices will rise about Is
per cent
SHOULD THAT HAPPEN OR EVEN IN THE
EVENT THAT PRICES SHOULD RISE 100 OR 200
PER CENT, NOTHING IN THE WORLD COULD BE
DONE TO AID GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES TO MEET
THE CONDITION WITH WHICH THEY WOULD BE
CONFRONTED.
Still, the Government employees supposed to be
working under system which will keep salaries COM
mensurate with the cost of living.
IT, overnight the cost of living should be doubled there
would not be the slightest chance of Government en-
poye getting back to their basic salaries before the
first of January Of next year.
In the event that the cost of living should double be-
tween and January President Roosevelt under the
law could give the Government employees back five per
cent of their salaries.
Regardless of how far that five per cent would 60 to-
ward making up the difference in the cost of living that
is as far as the President could go.
ALI that the President could do would be to restore
salaries to what they normally are supposed to be.
AS The Times pointed out in the Spring when urging
Congress to make the pay restoration complete, there is
way in which the cost of living scheme on Govern
ment salaries can be made equitable.
There has not yet been devised way to gather stas
tics on the cost of living which would make them ap-
pcable to the salary period to which they applied
The cost of living scheme will always be behind the
cost of living scheme"
THE FEARS WHICH ARE SPREADING AMONG
GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES NOW WITH THE APP
PROACH AND REALIZATION OF HIGHER PRICES
DEMONSTRATE THE NECESSITY OF STARTING
TO WORK NOW TO COMPLETE THE PAY RESTORA-
TION AND TO WIPE OUT THE SLIDING SCALE
METHOD OF FIXING sALARIEs-PARTICULARL
WHEN THAT SLIDING SCALE SLIDES IN ONLY
ONE DIRECTION.
Now is the time to lay the groundwork for the effort
of the Government workers.
Now is the time to lay the background for the effort
which will have to be made when the Congress
Yenes.
NOW, IN ADVANCE OF THE ELECTION, IS THE
TIME TO ASCERTAIN HOW CANDIDATES FOR
CONGRESS STAND ON THE PROPOSITION OF
GIVING AN HONEST DAYS PAY FOR AN HONEST
DAYS WORK.

Charley Yates of
Georgia Tech Cops
College Golf TOga
Bobby Jones' Protege Beats
Ed White, 5 and 3.

By United Press
CLEVELAND, July 2.-Charley
Yates Of Georgia Tech held the ma
tional intercollegiate golf title today,
having defeated Ed White. Univer-
sity of Texas, five up and three to
play, in the thirty-six-hole finals
match.
Yates, protege of Bobby Jones OF
Atlanta took a commanding lead
early in the match when Whites
tee shots strayed, and the Georgia
star went to lunch four up.
White put up brilliant fight in
the afternoon to prolong the play
but he couldn't match Yates sub
par golf. Five down and dornie at
the thirty second hole, White ran
down a forty-foot putt for deuce.
The Texans courageous efforts were
in vain, however, for he sliced his
tee shot badly on the thirty-third
had to waste a shot getting back
and lost the match.
Yates carried a telegram from
Jones in his pocket throughout the
match.
