NEW THREATS OF
INDUSTRIAL STRIFE

Continued from page one)
70 receive a IA per cent increase
in wages. This, they asserted
would lead to similar demands by
painters, carpenters, etc, and the
delegates departed declaring they
would flight it out
Unless this attitude is altered,
an administration official said a
wave of strikes in the building
trades industry in New York IS
inevitable.
While government officials were
concerned about the New York SIT
nation, they made no effort to
conceal their apprehension about
the trouble brewing in the auto
mobile industry. The issues are
clearly drawn. They revoIve chief.
" about the determination OF
labor or organize the industry
under the new powers given trade
unionism by section IA OF the
National Industrial Recovery Act
Labor leaders were promised by
Gen. Hugh S. Johnson before ne
retired as administrator of the
NRA that a public hearing would
be held on the automobile code
when the time came to consider It's
extension. They were promised an
opportunity to present their de-
mands for a 30-hour week and
elimination of the sO-caIled
INERT" clause from the code.
This clause permits manufacture
ers to hire or fire employees with
out regard to their union affllia-
ton. 1t is obnoxious to labor
chicftains because it removes the
chief incentive for workers to JOIN
a uniOn-a sense of security IN
their jobs.
Williams, however in accept
ing the craftsmanship of the gov
erning board made it clear that
he would not be bound by prom
iSes made by Johnson.
Industry is adamant that the
merit clause remain in the code.
Chrysler informed the admins
traton several days ago that the
manufacturers did not want pub
lie hearing; did not want the code
amended and would not accept a
code that did not contain the
merit clause.
If it develops that the code is
extended in its present form, il
will mark one of the few defeats
labor has taken at the hands of
the new deal. The action will be
interpreted by industry generally
I as another indication that Mr.
Roosevelt is concentrating on plac-
! ing recovery ahead of reform.
New dealers publicly speak
+, glowingly of industrial peace. Pri'
vately they say it is a rosy dream
which will never come true anC
advance two reasons to support
their theory. They are:

told of President Roosevelt's work
in the banking crisis, declared
that 100000 farms had been saw
ed and that it was estimated that
two millions would be saved to
their owners, that 100000 homes
had been saved and that it was es-
timated that three millions would
be saved; and he urged hat those
people desiring a continuation of
these efforts vote for the Demo-
cratic administration.
Mr.. Rulings was introduced by
r. L. Whitmire, local attorney,
who prefaced his Introductory re-
marks with brief survey of the
local situation. Mr.. Whitmire de-
clared that everyone in Hender-
son county knew that taxes had
been reduced. The tax rate dur
ing the last republican administra-
ton was SLOT and this year the
rate is 70 cents, reduction of 70
percent in the amount of tax paid
in this county. Republicans, he
declared, lay credit for this to the
state rather than the county adj
ministration, but he pointed out
that the savings effected by the
state came from legislature COM
posed of 10 Democrats and 10
Republicans.
He pointed out that operating
costs of the county had been re-
udced from S1Q5,000 in the last
Republican administration to APP
proximately $4,000 under the
present Democratic administra-
ton.
Much has been said, he pointed
out, by Republicans about the fact
that there was a Democratic
sheriff in 1880. But, he pointed
out, the salary of the sheriff then
and now was fixed by law, and
other expenses Of the office in
1890 were under the Republican
county administration.
Republicans, he said, were de-
claring that the tax for schools
had not been lowered, but had
merely been changed from an ad
valorem tax to a sales tax. He
pointed out that the last budget
for schools locally was $248,934,
! of which the counyt raised $685.
600, and he pointed out that in
the first II months the sales tax
was called Hendersonscounty paid
only SAC, 400 which was for the
support of schools.
E. w. Ewbank, Jr., chairman
of the young Democrats, presided.
Before presenting Mr.. Whitmire
he introduced Slower P. Dunagan,
of Ruthefordton, former state sem
ator from this district, and candi-
date to, succeed himself in the
lower house of the general assem-
bly,, and Postmaster Davis, also of
Rutherfordton.

workers. This results in a con-
slant demand by labor for great
err share in the profits.
2. The ceaseless campaign by
trade unions to organize every
worker in the nation which includ-
es as one of its goals the closed
shop.
The administration is cOgnizant
of the apprehension felt by indus.
try of the spreading influence of
trade uniOnism. Industrial lead
ers are demanding further clari-
fication of section IA which
Secretary of Labor Frances Perk-
ms blames for Is per cent OF the
strikes under the new deal.
Labor also wants the section,
which grants workers the right to
bargain collectively through rep
resentatives of their own choosing,
interpreted and is prepared TO
demand that the provision be
amended by congress to increase
penalties for viOlatOrs.
Industry wants the violations to
be subjected to civil and not penal
statutes.
The strike of workers of the
Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Co.,
in Cleveland, o., demonstrated
labor's militant campaign to utl-
lie to the fullest it snew powers
under the Recovery Act. The
company insisted the unions had
failed to organize APP workers
and used coercive tactics by call
inc a strike of teamsterS which
delivered foodstuffs to various
stores from company warehouses.
The demand then came from
newspapers and officials in busl-
ness life that the administration
move to curb such tactics and pro-
vide some protection to industry
under the controversial labor sec
ton. In reply, one responsible
government authority who declin-
ed to be quoted told the United
Press:
Don't these people understand
we do not have dictatorship !
Don't they understand we still
have democracy; the cOnstitu-
ton gives man the right to work
and the right not to work If ne
doesn't want to. We can't force
one or two persons to work if they
choose to strike"
Administration leaders, it was
learned, are giving considerable
study to suggested changes in the
labor provision. Also they are
worried about the wide disparity
between the cost of living and
wages. They were relieved wher
commodity prices slumped fol
four consecutive weeks.
The government bureau of labor
statistics, however, reported yes
terday that the slump had ended
and that wholesale commodity
prices during the week ended Oct
81 remained at the same level thai
prevailed during the previous
week.
The price index remained a
1872 per cent of the 1926 average
