Lewis Says Richberg
knitted the Workers
Tells Senate Committee That
Roosevelt's Adviser Wrote Ma
jority Rule Order And Then
Nullified 1t.

Washington.-John L. Lewis, Presi-
dent of the United Mine Workers OF
America, told the Senate Committee on
Education and Labor that Donald X.
Richberg, executive director of the
National Emergency Council, had
driven a knife into the very heart of
labor" by his interpretations of Section
IA of the National Industrial Recov-
cry Act.
Testifying in favor of the Wagner
Labor Relations Bill which would ef-
fectively outlaw the company-domin-
ated union and make majority rule in
the election of collective bargaining re-
representatives. a part Of the law, Mr.
Lewis declared hat Mr.. Richberg
sold labor down the river"
In justifying his indictment Mr..
Lewis said Richberg had Confessed
to the NRA Labor Advisory Board
that he had written the executive order
issued by President Roosevelt on Feb
ruary l, 1884, favoring the principle
of majority rule in collective bargain
ing, but that three days later he made
public an Interpretation signed by him
self and Gen. Hugh S. Johnson, Re
covery Administrator, multiplying ma
jority rule by stating that minorities
as well as individuals might bargain
collectively.
Mr.. Lewis declared hat the Rich
berg-Johnson Interpretation rendered
futile the attempt of the National La
Dor Board, whose chairman was Sena'
tor Wagner Of New York, to apply
the principle of majority rule in sub.
seqeuent decisions and added impetus
to the endeavor Of industry to pro
mote the formation of works council
which bind labor,
He said that proportional repres'
entation," imposed upon the workers il
the automobile industry, was the dir.
ect outcome Of Richberg's fallaciou.
interpretations OF Section IA.
a say that Mr.. Richberg betraye'
the President MIR. Lewis asserted
stressing each word of the accusation
by tapping the table before him will
his glasses.
Mr.. Lewis favored keeping in thu
Department of Labor the National La
Dor Relations Board which the Wag
ner bill sets up and giving both labo'
and industry representation to increas'
labor's confidence in the board. H
pointed out that non-partisanship put
a premium on lack Of information"

STIMATZ PLEADS
HIS CAUSE

Tom Stimatz, representative from
Silver Bow County pied his cause be-
fore the Trades Council Tuesday eve
ming. 1t is safe to say that no n
doubts the sincerity Of Tom. We all
agreed with him when he said u went
to Helena TO serve the people"
Whether or not he employed the most
efficient tactics may be a matter for de-
bate. Some of Mr.. Stimatz's remarks
are thought provoking at any rate. At
one point he said in effect: 81 made
up my mind as to what l considered
right and stayed with it, being swayed
neither to the right o to the left"
If he did that he should be given
credit. There are many powerful in
fluences at work at Helena, during the
Legislative sessions, designed to influ-
ence the legislators to change their
minds. Part of this mind changing
is sometimes termed strategy. Perhaps
we would get as much out Of the legis-
lature if our labor delegates were stub
bornly and unreasonably obstinate con-
corning measures as we do when they
change their minds and dicker for po-
sition by compromising. When all is
said and done the Butte representa-
tives served the unions faithfully anC
well. If there is fault to find it should
not be placed on them but upon the
lack of conference in the program that
was outlined for them to follow. W.
all voice the sentiments OF n of the
delegates last Tuesday, Let US hope
Stimatz is the last Of the legislator:
to describe the proceedings Of the last
assembly"

Wall Street Halls F.D.R.
Firing OF Liberals

NEW YORK, = (FP) 'The Big
Parade has begun"
This was the comment in Wall St.
on the announcement hat Jerome
Frank, liberal attorney, and others had
been forced to resign from the AAA,
and that Frederic Howe had been de-
NOTED. Howe is an old-time liberal
with an interest in cooperation dating
back two decades.
Attention was called to the promise
in The Journal OF Commerce before
the November elections that 40 liber-
ais would be fired by the administra-
ton after the elections. During the
famous Moley dinners with business
leaders a list was prepared of some 4C
New Deal advisers considered particul-
arly Objectionable to business" the
Journal of Commerce said. The un-
~derstanding was that the position,
held by these men would be filled with
advisers Of recognized standing" The
Moley dinners were those held by Ray.
mond Moley, editor Of Today and close
friend of the president. The advisers
OF recognized standing" meant mel
acceptable to Wall Street.
Taken with the recent attacks on la.
Dor by Asst. Pres. Donald Richberl
and the attitude Of the president, Wal
Street is filled with glee and confiden
that Roosevelt "has come back to hi
own"

100000 Children
Are On Relief Rolls

Some 100000 children under 10
years Of age are on the relief rolls OF
the Nation, il was stated by Arthur
Williams. Assistant Administrator,
Federal Emergency Relief Administra-
ton in the paper read before the Ma
tional Conference On the 1885 Needs OF
Children, meeting in New York City.
The paper was read by Robert 7. Lans-
dale, assistant to Mr.. Williams, who
was detained in Washington by pres
sure OF public business.
Reminding his audience that tenn
porary legislation outlawing child la
Dor has almost run its course, Mr.
Williams stated that there has always
been a group of persons who have IN
sisted that all efforts to protect chill
dren from exploitation are u%nconstitu-
tional or e~xtravagant. He recited in
stances Of child labor in the beet sugar
fields, factories, and mills to emphasize
the lack of opportunity which IS denied
to "other peoples children"
Industry and agriculture have
continued to insist that they could
not flourish unless they took the
cheapest available labor" said MIR.
Williams. "Only in this Admins
t~ration and under President
Roosevelt have we seen the Gov
eminent refute this supposed eco
nomic truth"

The Rocky Mountain Power COM
pany claims to have invested $l,8OO,OOO
on development and preliminary con
struction. Included in this list OF x
penditures are numerous items of ex-
n incurred by Frank M. Kerr,
president of the Montana Power COM
pany, when he visited the Flathead
tribe and was indicted into the tribe.
Among other items whcih were pub
lished in the Western Progressive
some weeks ago, was an item Of 500
to a state official, to pay his expenses
on the trip.
Under its policy Of cancelling the
lease, the federal government may sub
sequently sue for damages and fulfill
ment of contract. In any event the
investments are said to be far less
than the c~ontractual obligations Of the
promoters and will revert to the gov
eminent. This site has been recon-
mended for completion under the re-
port of the subcommittee of the COM
mittee on Indian affairs OF the U. S.
senate, dated December 10, 1888. The
governments rights in the matter are
set forth by Solicitor Margold as fol-
lows:
The right Of the government to in
sist upon a cancellation OF the contract
grows out of the licensees default.
Under the terms of the license issued
by the federal power commission, with
the approval of the secretary of the in
terror, on May e, 1880, the l%icensee be-
came bound to complete construction
on or before May q, 1884. Article 9 OF
the contract provides:
Subject to the provisions Of section
IS of the act, the l~icensee shall begin
the construction of said project works
within one year from the date OF issu-
ance hereof, shall thereafter, in goot
faith and due diligence, prosecute such
construction, and shall within three
years thereafter complete the installa-
ton of three units of not less thar
10000 horsepower aggregate capac-
ity."
The second of these alterations ex-
tended the date set for the completion
of construction from May %, 1884, t.
August "a, 1884. This modification o
the original contract was likewise mad
by the federal power commission
at the request of the licensee. (Se0
order dated May p, lo34)
There can be no question but tina
the licensee is now in default upon thi
%contractural obligation. The fedora
power commission may therefore cleo
to have the license cancelled. Articl
10 of the license makes section IS O
the federal water power act applicabl
in the matter Of cancellation. The rel
evant provision OF section IS Of the &c
declares:
an case the construction Of the pro-
ect works, or Of any specified par
thereof, have been begun but not CON
pleted within the time prescribed in tn
license, or as extended by the COMM:
sion, then the attorney general, upo
the request of the commission, sha
institute proceedings in equity in tn
court of the United States for the dis
mtrict in which any part of the project
, situated for the revocation Of said
~cense, the sale OF the works col
: structed, and such other equitable r'
! lief as the case may demand, as pre-
vided for in section 20 thereof"

April, 7 1885.
Dear Friend Walt:
You may tell Blewett ! have no de-
sire to be a candidate for vice presi-
dent of the State Federation as re-
ported in a recent issue of the Labor
News. l appreciate the good will OF
my friends in Great Falls, who sug-
gested the idea, but we should remem-
Der that Butte is the hub OF Unionism
in this state and most Of the action en-
tiers around that city, SO it is vital that
lii be represented on the executive coun-
Gil. Another thing to remember is we
should encourage harmony and avoid
as much politics in campaigning as pos
sible for the best interests OF the labor
movement.
