LABOR LEADER
FLAYS RECORD
OF L|'LARTHUR
Senator an 0pportunist,
Anderson Unions Told
by MACPHERSON.
MINToN is APPROVED
Democrat Will Stand by

BY JAMES DOSS
Times Staff Writer

ANDERSON, Oct. Ex-senator
Arthur R. Robinson's love for labor
is about as sincere as that of a
bridegroom at a shotgun wedding,
Clarence T. Macpherson, Anderson,
vice president of the Indiana Fed
Grafton of Laobr, asserted here last
night.
Speaking at a joint labor meet
ing in Central Labor Union hall
here, Mr.. MacPherson's address vir-
tually was an Endorsement by In
diana labor of Sherman Minton,
Democratic nominee for the United
States senate.
Mr.. Macpherson spoke on "Sena-
tor Robinson VS. Labor" and like
that great Democratic leader, Al
Smith, Mr.. Macpherson looked at
the record"
Frequent bursts of applause greet
ed references to President Franklin
D. Roosevelt as the greatest friend
labor ever had" and the description
of Mr.. Minton as lone who will
stand squarely and sincerely behind

Federation of Labor, duly elected

Stituents," Mr.. Macpherson said, II
rise to protest against the indorSe-
ment of any labor record other than
that which has been written so
fairly and Squarely by President
Franklin d. Roosevelt and the men
who support his policies.
"Most particularly, the labor
leader continued, Il do not want it
to be written beside my name that
L am a member of organized labor
who is so ungrateful as to cast
vote for a man who has stood Bit
terly against the Presidents great
recovery program.
Il refer to Senator Arthur r.
Robinson"
Mr.. Macpherson then traced the
benefits of the recovery program to
organized labor, program that put
100000 people to work, abolished
child labor, shortened hours and
generally improved the workers
conditions.

lilies whose small homes have been
saved by federal refinancing and

Mr.. Macpherson literally took
apart Senator RobinSon's labor rec
ord in the last session of congress.

Word has been received from Wash

Word has been received from Wash
ington, d. c., that c. G. Williams,
Frank Lincoln and Mrs. Elsie Nit
chell received the three highest scores
in the examination for postmaster.
Anyone of the three would make a
good officer, We think, but we pre-
dict that the first named will become
the appointee. We think Mr.. Hill is
enough of politician to take advan-
tage of Mr.. Williams grange activ-
tiles and influence and nominate him
for the position. The job is one OF
the few local political plums and
should, of course, go to the man who
has been of the most service to the
representative. It's all according 10
the rules of modern politics.

Rivaling those of old times, tn e
meeting at the Highlands club house
Friday night, was most successful
one. And much of the credit for the
success of the meeting must be given
the women who attended to the serv-
ing of the strawberries. They did a
good job, the meeting was a success
full one and is the first, we predict,
of a series which will serve to indi-
cate to farmer and businessman that
their interests are identical and a
friendly cooperation is the way to
success in accomplishing the one thing
for which both are seeking.

Leslie j. Smith writes US another
letter which we are printing this
week. He flung it in the door and
told the girl not to open until he was
out of town. A reading will indicate
that he has to be answered on some
of his statements.
First off, we did have something
in the paper about the library. It's
evident he didn't read the whole paper
as well as most. of the rest of the peo-
pie in this section do. Perhaps he's
right on the proposition that it was
a foolish thing to sponsor the collec-
tion of a fund for the library. How
ever, quite few people are coming
through with their contributions and
there will be more this week undoubt-
eddy.
True enough, eleven dollars is pit
fully poor showing for this district,
where some five hundred families
have been using the library at no cost
to themselves for years and years.
It's really time some of them pungled
up to keep the institution alive.
However, we are not going to
print fictitious names to get money
for the library or anything else. We
have confidence enough in the gener-
osity of the people in this country of
ours to believe that way will be
found to keep the library open until
such time as the city can again fin
ance it. And we don't believe it will
require the license money from the
beer parlors to do it, either.
Yeah, we have cannery! No one
expects a cannery to pay wages
enough to support a family. How
ever, it will mean, and already has
meant that the price the farmer has
received for his grass this year has
not reached the degrading depths
reached last year. The mere fact thai
there was cannery here has alread.
accomplished that much. Further
from now on, without a cannery The
grass which can be cut and sent t,
the cannery is just that much velve
to the grower.
The green market is now saturated
The water, taxes, and other overhea,
has already been expended for tina
part of the crop. What is now takel
to the processing plants can be call
ed the velvet. At least it is just tina
much more than the farmer woul
otherwise have received.
The wages being paid the worker
in the cannery is another clear gair
both to the worker and to the com
munity. 1t is work and wages which
The Kennewick courier-reporter. [volume] (Kennewick, Wash.) 1914-1938, 1934-05-10

without the cannery here, would have
paid in other communities if at all.
The berry code is not taxation with
out representation. A majority of the
growers, having a majority of the
acreage, wanted it. And we hope you
profit from it's effect in spite of your
self, Mr.. Smith. 1t looks entirely like
you would, if you market the remaini-
er of the berries you have left after
we take you up on your offer.
Anyhow, we're glad you are exercis-
ed about the library. We hope more
citizens will begin to think a little
about it and come thru with their
contributions.

The awarding of the prizes for the
health posters by the Kiwanis club
Tuesday brought out the splendid pro-
gress the children are making in their
knowledge o. the fundamentals of
good health. 1t is evident from the
thoughts expressed on the prize win
ming placards, that the teachings
which have been given, especially in
the lower grades, have taken hold and
have made an impression upon the
youthful minds. As DIR. Spaulding ex-
pressed it, in handing out the small
prizes, the children have a more COM
plete knowledge concerning this very
vital factor than many of the men
who sat around the table. 1t surely in
dicates the value of the training
which county nurse can give. This
county needs and should have, at all
times, the services of good nurse, in
addition to the proficient health Off
Ger. There is no other single need
quite so important as that of health.

The Washington Press association,
which is sponsoring the free cooking
school which will be held here Fri
day and Saturday of this week, has
been pounding it into the newspaper
publishers that this school is a first
class one. That it is just as good as
may be found in the larger centers,
and that those who attend will be
more than repaid for their efforts. So
we are passing along the good word.
You are all invited to attend the
school. We shall consider it a favor
and you will find it more than worth
while. The expert economist will aid
you in your household difficulties and
will give many secrets about cooking
which will Tighten the housewives
work and delight the family. Again
we urge you to come to the school,
Friday afternoon and evening and
Saturday afternoon. It's entirely free
and you will be under no obligation
of any kind to anyone.

We note that in places they are
praying for rain. After our trip to
town Saturday, and seeing the eff
fects of the cloud burst Friday, we
were led to believe we will let the
Almighty run the weather.
Carl Whitehouse and family of
Bloomington, ILL.,, are expected here
soon for visit.
When one gets to the place in
life where you feel and see things
different; when you realize that all
folks are not really hundred per-
cent-that you can't sort them into
two classes and tag them A and B
or even three, and use A c.; when
your head begins to grow through
your hair and at times you feel you
have got there, it is then you are
about ready to start. We have
birth control, eugenics, pasteuriza-
ton, sterilization and lot of things
this scribe hasn't heard of, and
wouldn't know what to do with If
we had them, yet with all the dis
coveries it has been left to some fu-
ture generation to discover head
control, something to counter act
ego. 1t is true past generations
have found perhaps we might say a
counter irritant-a slap in the face,
but it has only been quelling for
the time being. Perhaps the rea-
son it is hard to find a guaranteed
cure is on account of the fact that
hats are of so many different sizes.
Why we wrote the above: When
we realize our scribbling is read by
pastor and layman, by college men
and children, and then we reach
out arms length to scratch our
head and find by actual measure
ment that our ears are no farther
apart than they were years ago,
then and not till then are we aware
Of the fact that those gone before
have left no road map which gives
the straight highway without de-
tours. When the scribe is called he
finds his head is lacking, a detour
pencil what his heart feels, and
is in the road. We study psychol-
ogy, theology and so on, to the ex-
tent we may astound the world
with our knowledge, and we come
to detour. This time it may be
theophany. We want to close this.
You know this is not our style. Per-
haps it's our head When we
think of what we have been called
to go through in the past few
months, we know it's our head.
But why call your attention to
these matters? Those who have
been along the way have thought
away and beyond us, and perhaps

In Appreciation
Sometimes perhaps to all of us
there come pleasures that we do not
appreciate until later. We never
fully appreciate the sunshine until
the clouds have hidden it away for
days. We form friendships that
continue through years. Our friends
become a part of our life to the ex-
tent that we fail to think that some
day cloud will come between, and
our friend will go beyond where all
is joy and we will be left beneath
the cloud where sorrow and tears
are. While we try to appreciate, to
estimate the worth Of friend, the
appraisal never comes until the
cloud is between. Even though we
have tried, have set on the printed
page facts as we see them during
the lifetime Of our friend, when we
face the grim reality, look on the
face turned marble in the silence Of
death, we find we have only pref
aced the story of what they have
meant to us. We did not start to
write a sermon, only to note
thoughts that come surging through
our mind as we try to sum up the
life of man, Christian gentle
man, and beneficiary, a humanitar-
ian, a dispenser of kindness, a CIV
er of good gifts, an able advisor
one the children loved Why go
on? Through all the years we may
be allowed to sojourn here, men,
