SERIOUSLY Considers DR.. Wirt'S Charges

Constitu ton of the United
States"
Reforms in government were
urgently needed, but the powers of
the President and of congress
were limited by the Constitution,
which every member of congress
has sworn to support.
I did not vote to make Mr.
Roosevelt a benevolent despot,
but I voted for a President under
a representative constitutional
government.
I hold no brief on behalf of
DR.. Writ, but I agree with him
that the question of the identity
of the man who made the refer
ence to KerenSky and Stain is Of
minor Importance. The real prob
lem should not be camouflaged by
a discussion of personalities, and
the issues are too tremendous to
be evaded or whitewashed by con-
gress, or to be ridiculed by the
press, in the effort to pigeonhole
them, and thereby lull the Amer
lean people into disregard Of the
present danger to the republic.
Many of us have feared and
still fear that the present admin
istration's policies, if continued,
will ultimately result in an Ameri-
can Socialist, Communist, Soviet
or Fascist state, in place of con-
stitutional republic We have rot
described the menace in terms of
Kerensky and Stain, though we
have been alive to the danger Of a
Soviet republic as a result of
nationally regimented and coded
industry, and of the increasing
combination and concentration of
executive, legislative and judicial
functions in bureaucratic ap-
pointees of the President.
Congress, the President and the
courts are on trial before the
American people as their creators
and masters. We want to know
whether they are endangering the
governmental structure for the
preservation of human rights and
liberty, temporarily intrusted to
their administration. We want to
know how they justify their ap~
parent disregard of the consti-
tutional limitations imposed on
them by their creators and mas
tiers.

BY Charles Hall Davis.
DR.. Wirt'S statement has aroused
nation wide interest, not merely
because of his reference to Ker-
ensky and Stain, but because a
large number of thoughtful citi-
zers who believe in the American
plan and theory of government,
are seriously alarmed at the con-
tinuIng and increasing concentra-
ton of power in the federal gov
eminent and the scrapping of
constitutional limitations on gov
ernmental powers.
These citizens recognize that the
avoWed strategy of the Socialist
school of thought is gradually to
concentrate all power in govern
ment, and then seize the govern
ment and administer it, not in
the interest of all the people, but
of & class described as "the pro-
letariat."
They recognize that the present
program, whether so intended or
not, is aiding and furthering the
plans of the Socialists, and is
helping to make possible a politi-
cal coup" that may at one fell
stroke destroy the American re-
public and end individual and po-
litical liberty.
The Socialist platfrom of 1904,
official document issued by the
National Committee of the So
cialist party, pages 3O7-8-9, sets
forth that the organization is not
American but is world wide" 1t
pledges fidelity to the principles
of international socialism" 1t con-
tains the following:
ITO the end that the workers
may seize every possible advan-
tage that may strengthen them to
gain complete control of the
powers of government, and there
by the sooner establish the CO.
operative commonwealth, the So
cialist party pledges itself to
watch and work" for certain So
called legislative reforms.
1 have been a Democrat all my
life and voted for Mr.. Roosevelt.
I cast that vote with full knoWl-
edge that when the President
took office he would place his
hand on the Holy Scriptures and
take a solemn oath that he would
preserve, protect and defend the

HE'S STICKING WITH
COMPANY UNION

BY a Loyal Real siIker."
I have been a Real Silk employe
for almost seven years and I am
one of the many who is sticking
with the E. M. B. A.
The strikers have been saying
that j. A. Goodman and the E. M.
B. A. have been making false prom
iseS. During all my time at Real
Silk, 1 have never known j. A. or
the E. M. B. A. officials to go back
on their promises. Mr.. Goodman
has proved it in every way, too
numerous to mention. One is the
way he is taking care of his loyal
workers now and he will later on

They are saying that J. A has

wages such as one fellow wrote in

long do you suppose the mill would
last at that rate?
They also tell them they can't be
fired or no one can be hired if they
belong to the union and they can
give them promotions any time the
union officials wish.
II any little thing goes wrong
they can run to the union officials
and tell them and they demand the
employer to do just as they say.

In other words, if any one COM

going on continually if the union
we're in because I have never seen
a union yet that was completely
satisfied; they can call a strike and
parade the mills and ask for the
world and expect to get it.
Well, they are finding out differ
emily now and I hope they never
get in.
Another thing, the strikers have
no right to call the loyal ones in
the mill "scabS." We are not scabs;
we are Just going ahead working,
doing our job that the strikers were
foolish enough to walk out and
leave.
If the mill had already been
union and there was a strike, and
some of the workers went back in,
then they could be termed scabs.
But, the mill isn't union and the
ones inside aren't union, so the fell
low who left his work on his own
free will shouldn't be "hollering"
about the ones on the inside.

governor CLIFFORD PINCHOT and his

from Pennsylvania midweek in the teeth of an
electrical storm to be guests amid jonqus and
gold plates at formal White House dinner.
Pinchot wore his usual broad-brimmed hat
and business suit he arrived at the White
House. Mrs. Pinchot was in travelling costume.
They had landed their private plane at Con-
gressional Airport and came into Washington
by motor.
Political significance attached to the White
House fete on account of Pinchot's candidacy
for the senate. There were five senators at the
dinner-Steiwer of oregon, Thomas of Utah,
Thompson of Nebraska, Byrnes of South Caro-
lima and Hatch Of New Mexico.
Near the very end of the list of SiXty-two
guests one found the inconspicuous name of
Gerard Swope.

Work Resumed
On School Projects
Riverside And Brewster Buildings
Will Involve $4,000
Expenditure

Completion of the new school
buildings started several months
ago at Riverside and Brewster, but
delayed when relief funds were
withdrawn, has been definitely as
sured, A. E. Young, county mana
ger of the Washington Emergency
Relief administration, revealed yes
terday.
Construction work was resumed
on the partially completed Brew
ster school building yesterday, Mr.
Young said. It is expected that SO
workers will be put 10 work imme-
diately on this project, and oper-
alton of two shifts, involving the
employment of about 100 men, is
considered very possible.
Work on the Riverside school will
be resumed shortly after the first
of the year. Both projects will be
hurried through to completion as
rapidly as possible, he said.
Costs Run High
Total cost of the remaining work
to be done on the two buildings
will be approximately $4,000, Mr..
Young said. Each building will re-
quire about $4,000 to complete.
Cooperation of the VERA and
the state department Of education,
has made it possible to secure the
funds necessary to carry on con-
struction of the two projects, the
only school buildings in the county
planned for construction under the
PWA relief program, it was dis
closed.
A limited amount of the funds
raised by the school districts in
which bonds were sold to help fin
ance the projects, will be added to
the relief money.
At present only one shift is be-
ing operated at the Brewster pro-
ject, each worker being employed
on the six-hour shift, 30-hour week
basis.

Owens died before he could be

part Of the subject and decided diff
ferently. One fact Is worth a thous-
and iguesses.
The following facts and figures
are from Dean Drucker of the
School of Mines at Pullman, rec
ognized authority. He states, and
gives the following comparisons.
idaho is great mining state and
during the decade 1920 to 1880 pro-
duced minerals to the value of 276
million dollars. But during the
same period Washington produced
217 million dollars worth of miner
ais. Now Idaho has $4,000 square
miles, approximately, and Wash
ington has $4,000 square miles, APP
proximately, of territory. According
to the territory covered therefore
Washington has produced about 4
per cent less than Idaho. These are
the figures of the United States
government.
OF course Washington has not
produced the metallic minerals in
such quantities as Idaho but has
produced a very wide variety OF

ton has produced over 80 million
dollars worth of gold.
