President Signs Wagner Disputes Bill;
Urges Passing Of Guffey Coal Measure

Washington, D. G. (ILNS)-Presi-
dent Roosevelt has signed the Wag-
ner labor disputes bill and given the
Guffey coal regulation bill big
start toward enactment.
Signing of the Wagner bill eli
NAKED labor's long fight for the meas
ure, which it hailed as the Magma
Charte" Of American workers. The
act is designed to protest the right
of the workers to organize and sets
up machinery to enforce the right. It
states labor's rights in the process of
organizing unions and clarifies and
strengthens principles of Section IA
of the old national industrial recov-
cry act.
In approving the bill, the presi-
dent indicated that enforcement of the
act will be confined to business in
interstate commerce, thus limiting the
scope of the inevitable legal attacks
on the measure.
Referring to the act, Mr.. Roosevelt
said:
1T may eventually eliminate one
major cause Of labor disputes, but
it will not stop all labor disputes. 1t
does not cover all industry and labor,
but is applicable only when violation
of the legal right of Independent self
organization would burden or obstruct
interstate commerce.
Accepted by management,
labor and the public with sense
of sober responsibility and Of
willing cooperation, however, it
should serve as an important step
toward the achievement of just
and peaceful labor relations in
industry
This act defines, as part Of our
substantive law, the right of self
organization of employees in industry
for the purpose of collective bargain
| ing, and provides methods by which
the government can safeguard that
Illegal right. 1t establishes a National
/ Labor Relations Board to hear anc
determine cases in which it is charged
that this legal right is abridged OF
denied, and to hold fair elections te
ascertain who are the chosen repre-
sentatives of employees.
"a better relationship between labor
and management is the high purpos'
of this act. By assuring the employe'
the right of collective bargaining j

TemperAments Inborni

MOST persons have the idea that
AA temperaments are Unborn, that
whatever they are, they are as CEN
slant as eye colors. But there are
very few interchangeable laws of hui
man nature, outside of ones basic
physical traits.
Those who have spent q lot OF
time investigating the problem of
temperaments have come to a few
really valuable conclusions. The
main one is this: Temperament is
tied up with experience. and so it
follows that the kind Of neighbor-
hood you grow up in has a lot to
do with what you are.
And here's another conclusion:
You may, with surprising ease, rise

which takes you beyond those as

And still another conclusion:
You may best find out how to i'm

the prevailing temperament of
others. This sort of observation

After a time he ceased to see any
movement and by that time there
was hardly even a sign that any
one had been digging there. Old
Mr.. Toad had completely disap-

disappear, and some one had told
him that Old Mr.. Toad was still
there, he wouldn't have believed
1t. Almost without knowing what
he was doing he reached out and
