More Management By Workers Favored

consumed by the labor group, has
divided itself into two hostile
camps. The responsibility for
success and the brains to man
age are presumed to be confined
wholly and exclusively to the
capital group.
The bargaining between labor
and capital is more of a BULLDOG
ing process than a business un-
derStanding.
Neither can operate without the
other. Capital is dependent upon
intelligent, faithful service of la
Dor, which is as important as
good management. Labor's voice
in management is essential to pro-
mote efficient operation of bust
ness. 1t could provide the conf
dence lacking.
It is the lack of mutual interest
between capital and labor that
makes business hazardous.
Labor must prepare to assume
greater social responsibility in
industry to permit smoother pro-
cedure and fairer distribution Of
products.

FAVORS MORE FUNDS FOR
PENAL INSTITUTIONS

By Arthur C. swaRagan Jr.
I feel rather indignant at the way
citizens and taxpayers are bowling
at the state and various county ad-
ministrations because of the recent
escapes from penal institutions.
In the last few years, the tax
payers have been shouting economy
on all sides, and to meet the de-
mand as far as possible, We have
seen the appropriations for penal
institutions cut to the bone. Hence,
this alone has created situation
that is difficult to cope with, IN
face of the fact that crime is on
the increase.
Visualize the dangerous situation
that confronts the officials OF the
Marion county jail with only three
officers on duty at night to look
after the many duties required OF
them. When you consider that this
institution houses hardly ever less
than 200 prisoners. and in this 200,
some of the most desperate Grim
inals in the country, it is indeed an
alarming situation.
DeSperadoes incarcerated Tor
long time think only Of some means
of escape. In some cases, they spend
months in perfecting their plans,
and any penal institution that IS
undermined affords them the best
chance to accomplish their purpose.
Taxpayers, let US begin now to
demand adequate appropriations for
our penal institutions and we Will
not have wholesale Jail breaks and
Indiana will cease to be known as
the state of wholesale prison escapes
and jail breaks.

CROP REDUCTION AND
DROUGHT EFFECTS

BY H. p. Smith.
After reading the editorial, in The
Times of Aug. 20, headed Paying
for Weakness" 1 am wondering why
one on your side of the fence
should feel the drought a disaster.
You do not seem to be following
the reasonings of your medicine
man in Washington; either that or
you are not as 'shifty as he appears
to be.
Orr, in one of his cartoons in the
Chicago Tribune really pictures the
drought as you seem to see it, as a
scared field, empty barns and dead
cattle. He has this cartoon headed,
They Count 1t a Blessing"
That title is explained in a news
dispatch which is part of the car
toon. The news dispatch says:
washington, Aug 15.-Every-
thing is progressing, President
Roosevelt declared, in exact con-
Torrance with the program started
a year and half ago, and the only
effect of the drought as he sees it,
is to accomplish in a year what the
Wallace crop curtailnent
program was expected to accomplish
in two or three years."

ROBINSON FEAR TALK
BRANDED INSULT
By Perry Rule.

BY Perry Rule.
Senator Robinson, being "The
Last of the Mohicans," has an i'm
pulsive and irrepressible yearning TO
remain on the pay roll. Observing
that his colleagues have vanished
from public service, he alleges that
their constitutional rights have
been abrogated, but in spite Of
Robinson's allegations it is not I'M
constitutional for a Democrat to
be a public servant. His attempt tC
scare the farmers into fear that the
New Deal is worse than the old deal
is an insult to the agriculturiSts
intelligence. 1t. is on par with
Hoover's prophecy that Democratic
success would bring hundreds OF
thousands of head Of Mexican cat
tie across the border duty free and
that the farmers crops would rot
in their barns and that grass would
grow in the streets Of the principal
cities Of the United States.

CENATOR DANIEL HASTINGS. chairman

He has painted a dreary picture of the

Further. he attempted 10 convin eng

BY Observer.
From certain quarters comes
the cry that a lack of confidence
in the future, as far as the gov
eminent program is concerned, is
the great stumbling block in the
path of revival of industry. The
only noticeable forward move
ments in business, since the de-
bacle of the great wizards OF
finance, have come from the
spending programs of the gov
eminent.
Business as interpreted by our
queer philosophers of finance is
only a matter of shaking down
profit credits. That the operation
of industry is primarily the sup
plying of human needs is foreign
to most of this group.
At the base of this faulty
thinking lies the deplorable fact
that the workers in industry have
thrown upon the management OF
industry the sole responsibility
for it's success in a financial way.
Capital and labor engaged IN
the production of goods, which are

CONSTITUTION AND
HUMAN RIGHTS
By George w. Curtii

By George w. Curtis.
The Negro has a right to believe
that if Senator Robinson had been
senator during the Civil war period
he would have advocated Fremont
for President instead of Lincoln
Fremont represented the constitu-
tional wing of the Republican party.
The immortal Lincoln placed hu-
mainly above property rights.
The Crittenden resolution intro
duced in congress during the Civil
war stated that the war had no
other object than the maintenance
of the Constitution"
No one now doubts right as well
as might" was with Lincoln, even if
the Constitution wasn't changed
during almost four years of fight
ing. and after the tide of battle was
well assured, the thirteenth amend
ment was adopted Dec. 10
1865, prohibiting slavery. The God
of whom Senator Robinson speaks
evidently was with humanity and
not the Constitution.
When the Constitution was OPP
Grated pure and simple" under the
Hoover reign" Senator Robinson
failed to introduce a bill which

REWARD
BY EUGENE RICHART


Patience, they told me,
When I was a child,
Was the only virtue
To be sought by the wild.
IF you keep wishing
Very long and well,
Love and fame may come to you,
You never can tell"
One night had dream about
The careful words I'd written.
I dreamed they shriveled like green
leaves,
Withered and frost-bitten.
And all my little words that were
Once so new and brave
Rustled like brown autumn leaves
Over my grave.
There I was lying,
Futile and spent,
With time-drled words
For a monument.
There was lying,
Who never had loved or hated.
Who had learned what wisdom
was
And hstened-and waited.

The letter by New Voter" a

grips with both old parties, and
refuse to be made to accept pow

politicians and big corporations.
We can not be ruled by this New

ings, and can not be applied under
democracy, and we surely will go
on to revolution.
The new voter must look closely
into his politics, for Socialists and

both, we should fight shy of them.

He is 100 per cent honest, efficient,
