LABOR OPPOSES GOVERNMENT
POWER

Advocates of government-subsidiz-
ed hydro-electric projects use as one
of their most persistent arguments
the alleged benefits that will 60 to
labor.
1t is interesting to observe the
viewpoint of q very aggressive labor
leader-John l. Lewis, President Of
the United Mine Workers of America.
At the recent meeting Of the Appala-
chain Wage Conference in Washing
ton. Mr.. Lewis issued an ultimatum
that the whole coal industry, miner
and operator alike, will strenously
oppose further hydro-electric de-
velopments-
The outstanding fact in connection
with hydro-electric development, Mr..
Lewis said. is that the replacement
Of coal with water power is no long
er considered on a basis Of cost. That
Is. true Of Muscle Shoals, Of Boulder
Dam of the St Lawrence develop
ment-in no case will the change
make it possible to operate more ef-
fciently. Another example is the
proposed Loup River project in Ne
braska, which Mr.. Lewis regards as
being especially ~menacing. The Loup
River has been repeatedly surveyed
by private power companies and re-
iected as being basically inefficient
and impractical.
To quote from Mr.. Lewis on still
another phase Of the issue: There
is pending in the Senate a bill to
create a Missouri Valley Authority
which conveys the right Of that
Authority to construct hy~dro-electric
plants at available sites on the Mis-
souri, River or any Of its tributaries
and about the only restriction is that
they must build a dam on some point
on those rivers where the water
doesn't run up hill,and the bill pro-
poses hat the government of the
United States shall write a blank
check to finance those undertakings"
Mr.. Lewis holds that such propos-
ais as these are a threat to employ
ment-they will destroy thousands of
permanent jobs and substitute for
them temporary jobs. The taxpay-
ers money-millions of twill have
been used to build unnecessary elect
ric plants to the destruction Of priv
ate savings investments running into
vast amounts, as well as throwing
men out Of work 1t sounds like an
incredible story. But it is true. And
it shows what can happen when. Off
cialism and politics run rampant.

u DEAD FROM
STROKE

Mrs. L. w. Williams was found
dead Saturday morning at the res
taurant she has been conduction on
east Garfield street, where she has
been living alone since the death Of
her husband ten years ago.
The event was not unexpected,
even by her, as she had had a pre-
vious stroke, which left her in not
the best Of health, causing her to
caution her friends Mr.. and Mrs.
Harold Brown, living a couple Of
blocks away, "if you don't see any
thing stirring, come and investigate"
Mr.. Brown that morning saw her
morning paper still in the front
screen. and from the side of the
house saw she had not slept in the
bed in the bedroom. So he went to
the real Of the house, finding that
Mrs. Williams had fallen in the back
entryway, which she used as a coal
house, and was dead when he found
her.
The coroner was called, as a safe
guard, p~ronouncing it a plain case
of death from apolexy. Word was
sent at once to her brother, Lewis
Williams, living in Omaha.
Mrs. Williams was 70 years Of
age, so she remarked to a friend re-
Gently. She and her husband were
prominent residents here up until
his death Nov. 10, 1928 and Mrs.
Williams has since then continued
the restaurant business in a small
way, having many friends.
The funeral services for Mrs.
Williams have been set for this
Monday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock
