ALABAMA DAILY
PRESS FIGHTS
SEDTTION BILL
Governor is Urged to Veto
Measure Wanted by
Corporations

Montgomery, Ala. - (FP) =
The Alabama Federation of Labor
is urging Gov. Bib Graves to veto
the sedition bill which has just
ben passed by the Alabama legis-
lature.
A bitter fight was waged in the
legislature over this repressive act,
with corporations, banks, planters
and reactionary politicians back
ing the bill, and labor, progressive
politicians and liberals opposing it.
The American Legion was divided,
with a large progressive faction
against the bill.
Two Birmingham papers have
urged the governor to veto the
measure. The Birmingham Age
Herald declared the bill "endan-
gers vitality important liberties, y
while the Birmingham Post editor
ialized that it would be "an anti
progressive and Autographed la.
Dor, and an anti-freedom bill-thC
brain child of the Klan and tbs
corporation lawyers"
The Post further stated that thG
bill would not only suppress the
Communist Party but also liberal
ism in the Democratic Party itself
The sedition bill was slippe'
through the legislature when mos
Of it's opponents were absent, tn

Why shouldn't their organization

What the Union leaders have

What the rank and file Of the

Liquor Petition Is
Received At Helena
From Great Falls

Helena, July rs A campaign
to rewrite the present Montana
liquor control act which vests a
sales monopoly in the hands Of the
state, was formally launched today
with the filing Of an initiative
petition with the secretary Of state.
The petition came from Cascade
county and is one of many now in
circulation throughout the state. It
bore 1876 valid signatures.
The program advocated by sup
porters Of the movement provides
for both private retail and whole
sale vending Of liquors without re-
vision Of the beer act.
The initiative movement differs
from the referendum such as ap-
piled to the state insurance act, in
that it does not enjoin operation
Of any existing act until the chan
yes provided in the initiative are

RESTLESNESSA And
RESISTANCE GROWS
IN NAZI-GERMANY

Hamburg (TIS) - Recent re-
ports on the growing restlessness
and resistance Of the working mas
ses of Germany are borne out by a
number Of strikes that have occur
red in the industrial centers of
Germany. These strikes, it must
be said at the outset, have no po-
litical significance, but are simply
concerned with wages and working
conditions. AS such, however, they
are of even greater significance
since they indicate clearly the de-
sire of the German workers to free
themselves and their organizations
from official control and the fet-
tiers of Fascism.
In Germany's industrial center,
the Ruhr district, many arrests
have taken place following sporadic
labor struggles in Dinslaken, Wal
sum and Friedrichswald. Many Of
those arrested are Nazi storm tro-
opers who belong to the left wing
opposition. The workers in Section
Brunnenstrasse, Berlin, of the A.E
G., Germany's leading electrical
concern, recently resorted 20 pas
sive resistance as a protest against
the numerous contributions exact
ed from them. Numerous worker.
were arrested, among them the
: former leaders Of the powerful Gel
man Metal Workers Union, dissol
we'd by the Hitler Regime. The au
thorities and the management werl
forced to comply with the wishe.
Of the workers.
| Stoppage seems TO be the new
method that German labor has cho
sen to fight it's battles. The work
ers are aware Of the fact tina
strikes are forbidden under penal
ty of treason. They are further
more unable to organize properl
and are therefore forced to adop
a method which needs no length
preparations, and is easily follow
ed by all workers concerned. /
some cases, however, the worker
have not ben successful. Two hur
dred girls working in a factory be
longing to the Reemtsma Tobacco
, Trust who adopted the same tao
tics against wage cuts were in

CHAIN STORES BREAK
ANTLNAZI BOYCOTT

New York lTIS)- That Ameri-
can chain stores present a serious
obstacle in the fight against Hit
lerism by persisting in purchasing
Nazi made merchandise, is the
complaint Of organizations active
in advocating the boycott Of Nazi
Germany. While it is pointed out
that the boycott in the United Sta
ties Of German goods and services
has cut down German imports to
half Of the former amount, chain
stores have increased their pur-
chases directly from Germany.
However, in view Of the hostile at
titude Of the New York buying
public, attempts are being made to
dispose Of this merchandise out
side Of the New York districts.

FEWER PIGS In
LEADING COUNTRIES

Fewer hogs in Veterinary, more
hogs in Denmark, and the smallest
pig crop in many years in the Uni
ted States are features Of the
world hog and pork prospects re-
ported by the Bureau Of Agricul-
tural Economics.
Germany will have a reduced hog
slaughter the remainder Of the
year. Denmark slaughter also will
be small during the next six mon
tbs but may increase thereafter.
In the United States, the smallest
slaughter in more than Is years is
in prospect.
A further advance in hog prices
in the United States is foreseen
in view Of continued small slaugh-
ter supplies Of hogs until the
spring Of 1886. Increased farrow-
ing this fall will not be reflected
in increased slaughter until next
year, but weights per hog will in
crease with more adequate feed
supplies.
Exports Of United States hog
products have been greatly reduced
in recent months because Of de-
creased hog production. A low le-
vel Of exports is expected the re-
mainder Of this year.
Lard exports from the Danube
Basin totaIed 100000 pounds
during the first six months Of this
year, or more than five times ex-
ports in the corresponding period
Of 1884. Most Of the increased vol
ume went to Germany.

RUST EPIDEMIC.
THREATENS WHEAT
FIELDS In N. OAK.

Fargo, July II. - North Dakota
has one Of the most severe rust ep-
idemics in its grain fields in many
years, probably the worst since the
disastrous experiece of 1916, OBJ
servers here declare.
To what extent the damage will
materialize, according to most COM
petent authorities, depends very
largely on weather during the next
10 days and on the rust resistant
qualities Of ceres wheat which will
have to withstand the most severe
punishment since it became a fac
tor in North Dakota grain fields.
From information based on re-
ports from county agents, grain
men and government crop experts,
the rust is prevalent in epidemic
form in almost every wheat field
in the state.
81 would say" said a agronomist
at the North Dakota Agricultural
college, "if the state was planted
exclusively to marquis wheat, as il
was in 1916, our wheat crop would
be as disastrously affected this
year as then-provided the wea
Their for the next 10 days Of tive
weeks is as favorable to the devel
opment Of rust as is has been thu
last ten days"
"But if we get cool, dry weather
or if ceres will stand up agains
the rust as hoped for, we coulc
still produce a fair to good crop
In 1916 a potential crop of i
bushels, was wiped out in the mos
severe rust scourge which ever Wis
tied the state.

GRAIN OUTLOOK FOR
WEEK ENDING JULY 20

Grain markets were quite un-
settled during the week ending
July 10, according to the weekly
Grain Market Review of the Uni
ted States Bureau of Agricultural
Economics. Wheat advanced sharp
~, influenced by the spread Of
black stem rust in the spring wheat
areas Of the United States and
parts Of Canada. The greatest
price gain was in spring wheat
which advanced to within 2 to 3
cents per bushel Of an import basis
for high protein Canadian grain.
Rye was firmer with wheat but
trading was dull with receipts Of
old rye light but with liberal ship
ments in prospect from the new
crop. Corn was steady to slightly
higher at most points, influenced
by the strength in wheat, light re-
naming stocks, small offerings
and uncertain new crop conditions.
Oats were weak and lower with
rev crop movement under way in
the Central West. Barley markets
strengthened somewhat following
recent sharp declines with malt
sters and feeders showing greater
interest in current offerings. Flax
advanced influenced by the higher
wheat prices ard a good crushes
