charged with participation in a
100000 mail truck robbery here.
Pleading not guilty despite his
counsePs previous announcement
that he would admit the charge,
Costner took the stand to testify
that his confession of the crime
as reported by detectives was

Judge Webb said he knew of no
such agreement.
Presentation of states evidence
began as soon as the jury was
drawn.

attorney for Mae Blalock, also ac-
cused in the crime, attended the

have invested. Even in peak years no industry operated at capacity.
This means producing investments had to pay for idle investments
In an economic structure built on specialization and inter-rela-
ton, inequtes in distribution Of incomes brings unbalance IN pro-
duction and distribution of products and services that wrecks the
whole structure. This unbalance was one of the basic causes of the
collapse of 1929. Too much of our national income had gone into
speculation in securities on the Stock Exchange and speculative in
vestments generally, and not enough into the pockets OF those who
bought the output of industries.
Two things are needed: To increase the amount of national
income going into wages and small salaries so as to maintain a
balance between production and consumption that will use pro-
economic institutions that recognize and protect the interests Of
producing workers equally with the interests of the owners of these
products and other property.
To accomplish these two purposes organization Of wage earn
ers in Independent unions is essential for the promotion and pro-
lection of wage earners interests. In the present age under the
National Recovery Act as well as in all other periods, the union is
the beginning and continuing agency indispensable for wage earners
progress. II ii most fitting then that Labor Day should be dedicat-
ed to plans for the promotion and extension OF the trade union
movement.
Although the figures for Canada are not available, the con-
tinuity of industrial organization from the Mexican border north
ward, makes the principles equally applicable. During the past
four years United States industries have set up approximately 200
branches in Canada. Canadians have an established habit of invest
ing generously in United States undertakings. The workers of the
two countries have long known they must unite in establishing
standards when employers readily set up branches on either side Of
the boundary.
May every union and every central labor body in the United
States and Canada find in the day new inspiration for work and new
plans to be executed. When every wage Garner is a union member,
disciplined in working together with fellow workers in making eff
fective the principles of the union movement and accustomed to
work as a soldier in the ranks of Labor, then our national labor
movement will be able to negotiate work agreements that fully pro-
tect the interests of those who work for wages and to assure pub
lie institutions that will safeguard Labors rights.
urge all unions and all Labor to dedicate Labor Day to the
advancement of these purposes, by planning union-forward cam
paigns.

HOURS OF LABOR
By GEORGE w. THOMSON
Editor, The Draughtsman, Organ of
the British Association of Engi-
n~eering and Shipbuilding
Draughtsmen.

The prolonged inactivity Of large
sections Of every industrial population
has had the curious effect Of work
people making economic demands in a
period of depression, rather than, in
the usual industrial idiom, making
them in periods of prosperity.
The demands for shorter hours are
being made at once as a measure OF
spreading employment instead Of con-
centrating employment in few hands
and leaving a large mass constantly
unemployed, and also because work
people to an increasing extent are COM
ing to believe that Improvements in
business and industrial technique
ought to result in their sharing the
advantages along with others of the
population.
One of these advantages is leisure
for recreation, for study and for the
enjoyment of those things which
largely constitute civilization. Unfor-
tunately in the consideration of the
40 Hour Week Convention by the In
ternational Labor Conference at Ge-
neva, the British Government seems
always to be opposed to any claim of
this description and to side with its
masters, the employers, who, like the
Bourbons of old, seem to forget moth
ing and to learn nothing.
Even enlightened employers like

day week Of 40 hours has been insti-
tuted, evidently with success, thinks
this a matter for the industries them
selves rather than for governmental
decree in fulfillment Of i~nternational
conventions. But progress has always
come in double harness, when en-
lightenment has experimental and
compulsion has been laid upon the
backward.
