 DISAPPOINTING

Berkeley, Cal, April 26.-(UP)r Lazarus W, mongrel terrier re- vived from death by a young scien- tist. is doomed to spend his "sec- ond life" in the mental haze and helplessness of idiocy. his rescurer reluctantly decided today.
 From elation upon the dogs gradual return to performance of normal functions, Dr Robert Cor nish plunged into gloom as the animals brain showed no signs of responding to the experiment.
 "I rather doubt that Lazarus " will recover fully" the scientist finally admitted. "He probably will be an idiot the rest of his days"

Substitute For Wagner
Bill Called Complete
%Capitulation' for Bosses

WASHINGTON. - (FP) - Pres.
R~oosevelt's substitute for the Wagner
labor disputes bill is denounced by the
American Civil Liberties Union in even
stronger terms than it used in criticiz-
ing the revised Wagner bill.
"The proposed draft is not a COM
promise; it is a complete capitula-
ton" says a memorandum of the
Union sent to U. S. Senators. I'm
exchange for robbing labor of what
few hard won rights it now has, the
bill gives labor exactly nothing. While
the original Wagner bill purported to
confer upon labor certain new rights,
the present proposal does not even
make any pretense of doing So"
The Union attacks the bill as "a
weapon in the hands of employers to
crush organized labor" on four counts +:
81. 1t virtually establishes compul-
sorry arbitration and with it inevitable
denial Of the right of labor to strike
and picket. 2. 1t will tend through
the broad powers of investigation of
activities of employees to outlaw all
militant labor groups critical of gov
eminent policies or DESTROYS of any
change in the economic status quo.
3. The right to collective bargaining
is ignored. 4. The menace to organ
lied labor Of the company-dominated
union is not even considered"

Attack on the Coast
Longshoremen Hinted

SAN FRANCISCO. - (FP) = The
strike of maritime unions on the Pa
cific coast reached a new danger point
at which a general strike affecting the
important Pacific coast ports was
threatened when CALIFORNIA; new gov
ernor launched a bitter attack on the
unions.
Gov. Frank B. Merriam issued a dia-
tribe against the San Francisco local
of the international Longshoremen's
Association. He scored what he called
a horde of professional agitators and
alien Communists, with their lawless,
destructive, mushroom organization,
their vicious creed Of violence and sab
otage,' and threatened to use the full
power Of the state to smash both the
maritime and agricultural strikes.
This was seer as indicating hat he
was ready to call out the troops on
the waterfront, that he would support
the mobs Of the Imperial Valley ranch
ers and that he would support state
police in the recent deportation Of 200
farm strikers from Contra Costa
county.
The l. L. A. has already asked for a
general strike in the bay district and
the unions have indicated that they
will walk out if the troops are sent to
the docks. Tacoma and Portland CEN
trail labor bodies have also voted a
general strike if troops try to open
those ports.
President Maillard of the San Fran
cisco Chamber of Commerce indicated
that he was working in close alliance
with the governor by demanding of the
Industrial Association that it open
the port" charging that IAN ire
sponsible group of radicals has seized
control Of the union, paralyzing ac-
tivity and planning a general strike"
International Pres. Joseph P. Ryan
OF the !. L. A. joined the attack on the
local by saying it is "out of hand" and
threatening to deal with the company
union set up by Lee J. Holman, the
former president OF the /. l.. A. local
who was expelled by the membership
for blocking a strike in the early
spring after it had been voted by the
membership. Ryan's statement caused
a storm Of protest among the strikers.
Meanwhile fighting continues. Four
battles on the Oakland waterfront
were soaked with teargas by the police
as a taste Of what the workers may
expect when the troops arrive.

MANY Soviet Railroaders
Get Resort Vacations.

MOSCOW, U. S. S. R-(FP)-So-
cial services available for Soviet rail-
raymen have been greatly increased
in the past year, the central committee
OF the Railroad Workers union re-
ports In 1884 as many as l90,Sl7 rail-
readers are being sent to rest homes,
tourist bases, sanatoria and health re-
sorts, it states. Most of those enjoy
ing these privileges are workers who
have distinguished themselves so as to
win the title OF udarnik, or shock
brigader.
At the railroad unions rest homes,
to which 100000 workers are being
sent this year, free vacations are en-
loved under medical supervision for
from II to "a days. Diet and oppor-
tunity for healthy outdoor recreation
are main considerations. Sun-bathing,
swimming, physical exercise, excur-
sions, games, etc. are on the program,
as are also movies, concerts and lee
lures.
At the sanatoria and health resorts a
patient may stay from 50 to % days,
receiving full medical treatment and
daily attention from doctors and spe-
c~ialists.
The tourist bases are for vacation
trips through such regions as the
Volga, Black Sea, Crimea and Cau-
casus, usually lasting from 10 to q
days. A doctor supervises the health
of the worker tourists.
Workers children are especially pro-
vided for in children's departments at
the rest homes, and when they fall
sick may be sent to a children's sana-
forum where they spend some 40 to
90 days under medical supervision.
The railwaymen's union announces
that its expenditures for such purposes
have been increased from l3,390,000
rubles in 1888 to 21,054,200 in 1884.
Other unions provide similar benefits
for the workers in their industries.

vention in Milwaukee June IS. James
P. Sheehan, organizer for the Milwau-
kee A. F. of L. central body, was
named for U. S. senator to run against
Sen. Robert M. LaFollette.
Speaking to the many farmer dele

Little Man, What Now?"

Little Man, What Now" by Hans
Fallanda is a story which every
American should read. 1t deals ex-
tensively with working conditions Of
the country and the desperate situation
which faces a young married couple
who face a hard world with no
prospect Of means of a livelihood or
support for their offspring. The
father stands over his little one and,
glowing with pride, yet with soul filled
with despair, he utters the words,
Little Man, What Now" A very
interesting editorial appeared in a re-
cent Washington newspaper bearing
the same title as this story. 1t dealt
extensively with our Milk Investiga-
ton, which the readers Of this column
will remember. Inasmuch as the well
fare of the child is so bound up in the
problem of milk and milk prices the
title was very appropriate. The Milk
Resolution is having tough shedding"
in the Senate. One senator who
claims authorship objects to having
the House measur substituted for his
bill. W. hope that such a selfish con-
sideration will not delay nor prevent
the passage of this worthy resolution.
Otherwise we can we'll exclaim Lit
tie Man, What Now"

ST. PAUL-(FP) Unless strag-
Cling returns upset the dope, U. S.
Senator Henrik Shipstead has easily
outdistanced Representative Franklin
Shoemaker for the Farmer-Labor
nomination for senator from Mime
sofa in the June IS primary. Ship
stead, regarded as very conservative
by many party members, scored heav-
lily in the cities while his radical OPP
ponent failed to roll up an adequate
offset in the country precincts.
Gov. Floyd Olson was renominated
in spite OF opposition.
There is talk of fusion by Repub-
licans and Democrats to beat the
Farmer-Labor ticket in November.

a subcommittee Of the Interstate and
Foreign Commerce Committee be ap-
pointed to make the necessary ~investi-

Geological result, and will clear up the
oil feud which is now being waged be-
tween the independent and other pro-
ducers of oil.

SIS, OOO,O 900 WON'T BRIDE THE
CHICAGO TEACHERS.

CHlCAGO.-(FP)-T he $25,0O0,000
in back pay which Chicago politicians
hope to get Tor the teachers through
a secured loan from the federal gov
eminent will not bride the teachers in
their campaign 10 restore to the school
children the education which the bust
nessmen's economy committee sabo-
tagged in the last two years.
You can make that as strong as
you want to- declared Secretary Flor
ence Curtis Hanson of the American
Federation OF Teachers and herself a
former Chicago high school teacher.
Payment Of back salaries is only the
first step in our fight to guarantee the
children OF Chicago the minimum OF a
proper American education. They are
not getting it now and they won't
ever get it if the business men and
bankers that control our city and its
school system have their way"
Among the steps that must be re-
traced before the children again have
the level of schooling which was taken
away from them by the pressure Of
the unofficial economy committee of
industrial and financial magnates-
who did not want to pay taxes for
public schools while they sent their
own kids to private schools-are
l.. Restoration of junior high
schools. These used to give seventh
and eighth grade children some of the
advantages Of a high school training.
2. Reduction OF the un~manageable
number of children Cup to 60 in a
single class. By this and other moves
e a thousand teachers were thrown
out of jobs.
3. Restoration to the former level
Of physical education, art and domestic
science, which introduced the children
to health and culture.
4 Unemployment OF laid-off special
teachers for defective and subnormal
children.
5. Restoration OF teacher-counci1
system by which teachers had a voice
in the making OF school policy and
administration.
Just the same the teachers are jubi-
LIANT over the success of their militant
methods in bringing the politicians and
bankers to time. They recalled their
exuberant parades downtown, invad-
ing the sacred precincts OF Charlie
Dawes and other bankers and forcing
Charlie to come out of hiding and face
the music. They recall also how they
appeared il the offices of the board Of
education, thousands strong, while the
president of the board hid in a dark
ened inner office. When a daring
teacher kicked in the glass door of the
office the president sheepishly came
out and submitted to their heckling.
The American Federation OF Teach
ers meets in the Morrison Hotel the
week of June Is in eighteenth annual
convention. 1t had been scheduled to
meet in the swanky Modinah- Mich
gan Club but when the club manage
ment would not guarantee fair treat
ment of all the teacher delegates the
federation followed the example of the
International Ladies Garment Work
ers a fortnight previous. The club
had forbidden Negro garment workers
from riding in the am elevators with
whites to the auditorium floor. So
the radical section OF the union forced
a withdrawal to the Morrison which
does not discriminate against Negroes.
Montana labor news., 1934-06-28

Secretary Hanson of the teachers
tried to get a promise on paper-not
trusting oral assurances-that the half
dozen Negro delegates of her organi-
cation would be given exactly the same
~courtesies and rights as the whites.
When this was not forthcoming the
executive council authorized her to
move the convention away.
