A Fair Trial

1t is 1udicrous to hear the sob-sisters of the A.
C. M. Co. wailing about a fair trial for Gunman
Gale. | wonder if these officials know what a
fair trial is? wonder if they have ever seen a
fair trial in which they were involved in Mon
tana?
Probably they call the type of trial given
Mayor Duncan of Butte and Sheriff Tim Dris-
coll a fair trial. If such a trial is called a fair
trial. we need no courts of justice to try Harry
Gale. He would get a fairer trial than was ever
given Duncan or Driscoll if he appeared before
the strike committe for sentence. The Ana
conda Company Officials, along with Gale can
give thanks to the humanity and decency of the
common workers Of Butte for the fact that Gale
is not getting such a trial.
Probably Colonel Stivers would call the type
of trial given Little a fair trial. Probably the
Company officials are proud of the trial they
gave this crippled Labor leader before he was
strung to a t%restle. Is that what the Anaconda
Company calls a fair trial? Harry Gale can get
down on his knees and thank his god that such
a trial wasn't meted him by the men on whom
he pulled a gun. Hobbons, DAILY, Stivers and
Dan Kelley can be thankful that that isn't the
workers idea of justice and a fair trial.
1t little behoves an attorney or any official
of the A. c.. NJ. Co. to handy the words fair
trial" about until they can show that they have
an idea Of what a fair trial means.
What would have been the attitude /" the
Anaconda Company had a worker pulled a gun
on one of the $50 or so scabs? Would they have
objected to a speedy trial? Would they have
asked for change of venue? No doubt the
coroner and the undertaken would have settled
the case and the hasty worker would never had
had the opportunity to face a court or jury.

with the American Federation of Labor, and
foster the company union"

The editorial concludes that the company I'M
ion imperils " the rights OF workers in general
and thus makes the problems of every wage
Garner more difficult of solution. In any crisis,
it necessarily ranks the the claims of the en-
ployer above those of the worker"
The conclusion reached by the editorial in
america" is, of course, reflected by all pro-
gressive and reasoning citizens. Nevertheless,
officials of some of our largest corporations,
notably those in the automobile and iron and
steel industries, continue to impose this monos
frosty on their employees in violation Of both
the letter and spirit of the labor section of the
National Industrial Recovery Act. Indeed, they
seek to protect their subversive position with
the cloak of patriotism. All of which reminds
us that Samuel Johnson, the eminent English
writer and photographer, once said that "patrio-
tism is the last resort of a scoundrel."

Company Union Photographed

Organized labor's claim that the company
devised by certain employers to impose their
dictatorial DEGREES on employees and prevent
their organization in bona fide Independent trade
unions is reflected in cogent language in an edi-
torial in America, =" a Catholic review published
in New York City.
Discussing the declaration by Senator Wag-
ner, Chairman of the National Labor Board, that
the company union is an ASSOCIATION controlled
by the employer, with its expenses paid by the
employer and its decisions usually subject to
the employers veto, and that it is not an instru-
ment to enable the worker to bargain with his
employer on the basis of equality, the editorial
says:
Isolated from other labor groups, unable
to profit by their special knowledge, and
forbidden to employ outside counsel, the
company union is but a Quaker gun used
against an enemy equipped with the most
powerful munitions that science can devise
and money can buy. Certainly, it cannot
give its members the weight and authority
which they need to bargain collectively with
the employer. Indeed, unless the two par
ing, collective bargaining is a sham In
ties can meet on approximately equal foot
dealing with the company union, the en-
ployer usually has the agreeable task of
driving a bargain with himself. That is why
some of our largest, and most ruthless en-
ployers anathematize the union affiliated

support in Washington.
San Francisco, Los Angeles, San
Diego, Portland and Seattle all have
definite commercial, shipping and
even financial interests in the well
fare and prosperity Of the highly
productive mid-Pacific territory, but
Hawaiian supporters feel this eco
nomic relationship has not been re-
fected in political alignments here.
A change in this situation is being
sought by Hawaiian business men.
They desire to establish a more
effective political collaboration with
their mainland associates on legis-
lative matters affecting mutual in
terests.
Hawaiian supporters here contend
that congressman and senators from
the Pacific coast during the last ten
years. with few exceptions, have
failed actively to concern themselves
over Hawaiian interests.
A curious situation arose by which
a small group of midwestern Pro-
gressives and the four Farmer
Labor congressman from Minnesota
were looked upon as the chief sup
porters of the territory.
Hawaiian business men now are
turning to the Pacific coast delega-
tions as the most logical group to
remedy existing conditions.

LIONS CLUB DONATES
MONEY TO THE LIBRARY

At the weekly meeting of the Lions
Club held on Tuesday evening at the
Whyte House, an important step was
made in it's history-when they made
their first contribution to town pro-
ject. It was a gift of $25 to the Po-
comoke Public Library.
Less than one year old it would
seem to any casual observer that this
organization is quickly falling in line
to the national reputation Of the
Lions Club-namely, in helpfulness, to
their community. When a member in
his talk on the library, stated what
the library was doing toward assist
ing the history and English classes
at the Pocomoke High School the chill
dren and community in general and
suggested that the Lions Club make
some gift to the library in furthering
it's aims the members were not long
in reaching the conclusion that this
was what they wanted to help. The
Lions Club should be highly commend
ed, in their initial step.

WASTED BODY
OF AN INDIAN
WOMAN FOUND
Identified AS That Of Parthenia
Carter, Wife Of A Vir-
ginia Negro
CARTER SUPPOSED TO
HAVE SLAIN HIMSELF

The gruesome remains of what is
reported to have been the slain body
of Parthenia Carter, 33-year old In
dian woman, were found in a woods
near Stockton, this county, last week.
The woman who had been missing since
the night of October IA, was native
of North Carolina, and her last ap-
pearance to those who knew her was
when she and her negro husband, of
Weirwood. Va, sought help from Sher-
iff E. L. Turner, of Northampton
County, Va, following a domestic
quarrel. They were then riding in an
automobile coupe.
Three days later, the body of Car
ter was found lying along the rail-
road tracks near Girdletree. A bull
let had been fired into his heart. A
coroner's jury returned verdict that
Carter had been murdered by an I'M
known person.
The Indian wife of Carter, together
with the automobile coupe, was
sought by officials of Worcester coun-
ty and the Eastern Shore of Virginia
without success.
Arthur Bromley, who found the re-
mains of the Indian woman, discovered
the automobile coupe parked near by.
In view of the finding of the coroner's
jury, which declares both Carter and
his wife were murdered, officials are
seeking a third person for question
ing.
One theory advanced is that the
Carter negro shot and killed his Indian
wife and later killed himself. but the
theory is not substantiated by facts
uncovered by the coroner's jury.
Identification was made through
articles, including shreds of calico
dress, found near the remains.
DR.. John D. Dickerson, Of Stockton,
who examined the body, found evil
dence that bullet had entered the
woman's body near the heart, the
missile having struck and broken
rib. She had been murdered, was the
opinion expressed by the physician.

OLD BENCH HOLDING
LAST DISTRICT COURT

The court which, at this writing,
is now being held in Dorchester is
probably the last over which the pres
ent Bench will preside. Chief Patti
son and Associate Judge Joseph l.
Bailey were retired by the age limit,
and Associate Judge Robert F. Duer,
was defeated in the election last week.
The commissions for the newly
elected judges-Benjamin A. johnson,
Chief; and T. Sangston Insley and
James M. Crockett-will probably be
sent out early in December. Thirty
days are allowed for the judges to
be sworn in and the first sitting will
occur in the January term-a non-jury
term.
The new bench is composed of high
class jurists, who are abundantly able
to preserve the splendid example of
their predecessors in the matter Of a
fair, impartial, and just way. They
have the best wishes of all their con-
stituents for successful service.
