You VIII Find Him
Here and EUerylUhere
("Jack Pine" Wolfe in the Deer
River NewS.")

He lives in the community and largely
off of it. He contributes nothing and
wants about everything.
He pays no taxes, but when any
public work is started you find him in
the front row asking for job.
He cries out against the government
in all its forms and then rushes to the
relief office for aid.
He pays nothing for the support of
! the schools and then kicks about our
system of education.
He sends all his business to the cat
house and asks the local store to grant
him credit.
He cusSes the commercial club be-
cause it doesn't do more but never
offers to do anything himself
He kicks because a little gang are
running things, when he wouldn't help
if he could
He doesn't own dimes worth of
property but wants to pile up taxes on
all those who do.
He wouldn't take his home town
PoPSt, oiiO "ouAStii pay Ills ouUSC1 ~
ton if he did.
. He isn't interested in any public en-
terprise unless he sees dollar coming
into his own pocket.
He never gave cent to the church,
but when he dies he wants the preacher
and a decent funeral.
He spends his money for booze and
riotous living and damns the banks
when loan is refused.
He expects the fire department to
save his burning home, but went pay
a cent for protection.
He kicks because we haven't a better
town and never does a thing to make
the town better.
He's big shot when he has a chance
to parade himself, but missing when
work is to be done.
He raps the business men at every
chance, and then asks them for favors
when help is needed
Some day, sometime, this fellow is
going to come to his senses. When he
does, he is going to feel so small he'll
drop through knothole in the side
walk
And when he does, we hope somebody
will be near enough to nail board over
the hole.

Italo- Ethiopian War &League

League of Nations Sanctions
against Italy will probably be ir
force by the time this is read.
First sanctions will be economic
and will take the following forms
among others:
Forbid the opening of credit tc
Italy in any foreign country For
bid authorization of an Italian
bond issue in any foreign country,
Forbid opening of bank credits to
Italy in any league nation agree
ing to the sanctions. Forbid OPEN
ing of commercial credits-a pro-
hibition which, it is said, would Dr.
ing about an almost complete stop
page of Italian trade. In brief,the
sanctions would be designed to
paralyze Italy's import and export
business.
Only three league nations voted
against the sanctions and said they
would not obey them Albania
and Hungary, which are relatively
unimportant. and Austria, which,
due to geographical position, is
very important. Austria connects
Italy with Germany, which is no
longer a member of the league.
Thus, goods Italy vitality needs can
be bought in Germany, transported
acoss Austria, largely multiplying
league sanctions. The league, which
is now being led by England, could
of course cure that by military act
ion-something that would mean
war. Many still blieve that nothing
will be really settled until that war
occurs.

STRIKE SPREAD
TO EAST COAST
THREATENED

International News Service
Spread of strike outbreaks
among longshoremen, to involv.
the entire South Atlantic and
Gulf Coasts, was threatened today
as Edward F. McGrady, Assistant
Secretary of Labor, made a last
effort to head off a new general
strike on the Pacific Coast, arts
ing from CommuniStincited long
shoremen's labor wars.
The new outbreak was threat
ened in word to McGrady from
Joseph P. Ryan, spokesman fol
South Atlantic and Gulf long
Shoremen's organizations. He
warned McGrady that "a serious
situation was developing affecting
the entire South Atlantic and Gull
Coast"
Ryan Blames Ship Owners
Refusal of steamship operators
to deal with these organizations
was blamed by Ryan for the
threatened trouble. He suggested
that McGrady summon officials
of the steamship association in
volved. to the general conference
scheduled to begin here Saturday,
on the Pacific situation. Ryan
said:
"The continued stand Of the
New Orleans agents may cause
the cessation of lOngshOremen'S
work on all boats to and from
that port"
McGrady conferred with re-
representatives. of the steamship
association here, later it was de-
cided to postpone a conference
on the gulf controversy until
after the more general Pacific
Coast labor war has been taken
under control.
Violation Is Charged
Refusal of the steamship asso-
citation to deal with Ryan'S group
is said by officials here to con-
Stitute a violation of the Wagner
labor disputes law. The steam
ship operators in turn charge that
some of Ryan's organizations. on
the Pacific Coast, have violated
working agreements with opera
tors. They want assurance that
the same thing will not happen
in the event of agreements with
the Gulf labor groups.
Meanwhile, developments on the
Pacific Coast and secret activities
among longShoremen's unions
dominated by left-wing labor lead
ers indicate plans tU force a gen.
eral strike there again, as a COM
memoration of the one a year ago
in which nine were killed.

eminent today considered the
matter q "cloSed incident"
The American reply to the Ger

New York Communists in tearing
down the Nazi flag from the
Bremen'S bow last Friday night,
made it clear that this govern
ment did not consider the New
York police authorities were to
blame in any way either for the
incident or for failure to provide
adequate protection.
While describing defilement of
the German flag as "unfortun.
ate" the note said the incident
was in no sense due to neglect
on the part of the American au-
thoritieS."

It called attention to the fact
that New York police authorities
warned officials of the North
German Lloyd Line that the Com.
munists planned a demonstration
and suggested the line curtail
the number of visitors permitted
to board the vessel,
Acting Secretary of State Will
liam Phillips, who signed the
American note, invited particular
attention" to the fact that "the
officers of the steamship line did
not deem it necessary to adopt
such measures"
The American note, delivered to
the German embassy here, was in
reply to a formal protest lodged
with the State Department by
Rudolf Leitner, the German
Charge D'Affaires.
Rioters Held for Trial
Leitner said he had been in
Structed to make the most en-
phatic protest against this serious
insult to the German national
emblem" and ventured to Eek
press the expectation that every
thing will be done on the part of
the American authorities charged
with the prosecution of criminal
offenseS in order that the guilty
persons may be duly punished"
In replying, Phillips invited "at-
tention" to that part of the police
report which Indicates that the
persons implicated in this dis
order have been apprehended and
are being held for trial"
