STRIKEBREAKING
Agencies Fight Registration
Bill

Boston (ILNS) Trying to pose as
lilies of the valley and seeking to shift
the blame for strikebreaking disor-
ders and similar industrial evils to
other quarters, strikebreaking agen-
cies from all the nation appeared at
the state capitol before the legislative
judiciary committee to oppose the la
bor-backed bill requiring the regis
tration of private detectives within "a
hours of their employment by man
ufacturer.
Those who doned spotless robes to
fight the measure included w B. Field,
Of the notorious Railway Audit and
Inspection Bureau; ex-senator James
F. Cavanaugh, representing the New
England Private Detectives Associa-
ton; Robert Burns, Of the ill-famed
Burns Agency; Ralph Dudley, of the
Pinkerton Agency; Clifton Watts, Of
the Watts Agency; Joseph j. Wolf, of
the Wolf Secret Service Bureau; Will
liam F. Cahill, of the Worthing
Agency, Springfield, and P. j. Burke.
Listen to Cavanagh, former state
senator:
Employment agencies and not pri-
vate detectives are to blame for con-
ditions complained Of by the unions.
Efficiency engineers also are to be
blamed for placing spies in factories.
Legitimate detective agencies are not
engaged in strikebreaking."
The committee lent more atten-
tive ear to union leaders who told
how they were shadowed constantly
threatened and often kidnapped and
beaten at the behest of employers
seeking to crush the desire for a
union by their employees.

THREE STATES
Urge Supreme Court to Up
hold Guffey Act

Washington, .. c. (AFLNS)-The
attorneys general of Pennsylvania,
Indiana and New Mexico submitted
briefs to the supreme court of the
United States, urging the nine jurists
who compose it TO affirm the constitu-
tionality of the Guffey coal stabili-
zation act.
The act is challenged by number
{ coal corporations who claim that
establishing code for the industry
under the direction of a national coal
commission and provisions for regu-
lating output and prices and deter
mining decent wages are in viola
-ion Of the principle Of state rights
and consequently unconstitutional.
The briefs claim the states are
powerless to regulate the industry
and stat the federal government has
Tue power to fix coal prices under
the commerce clause Of the constitu-
tion.
0n the grounds that wages, hours
md other labor relations affect m
erstate commerce directly, the briefs
argue the federal government also
has the power to regulate them.
We believe that the Guffey coal
bili is an outstanding and construct
iTe piece 81 legislation the New
Aexico brief declared, adding: THE
state Of New Mexico desires to urge
hat the act be upheld as one which
points the only way out of situa-
tion which IS fraught with great
peril, not only to the coal-producing
states Of the nation, but Of the entire
nation as we'll

BY GEORGE L. KNAPP

In April, 1916, the employees of
restaurant in Bisbee, Ariz., got into
a quarrel with the proprietors thereof.
In the October term of 1921, that
quarrel pot to the United States Su-
preme Court. That court, by a 5to-4
vote, decided, in substance, that
states could not make laws which in
terfered with the protection of prop
erty rights" by injunction.
Arizona had law which began,
"No restraining order or injunction
shall be granted by any court in this
state, on judge or the judges there
Of, in any case between an employer
and employees" An exception was
made that if the injunction were nee
essary to protect property from ir-
reparable injury, that property must
be described in the application for an
injunction, and the camplaint must
be in writing and sworn to.
There was the quarrel, above men
toned. The restaurant asked for an
injunction. The defendants filed a
demurrer, saying that the complaint
did not state facts sufficient to con-
stitute cause of action, and that the
property rights asserted were not of
a character to be protected by injunc-
tion under Arizona laws. The Arizona
courts upheld this demurrer.
Picketing Unlawful, Taft Says
Chief Justice Taft delivered the
opinion Of the court. He held that
the restaurants trade was property,
which could be protected by injunc-
tion He declared that the Arizona
court was so far from the accepted
grounds that it might be speaking a
different language He took occasion
in this case to say that picketing was
unlawful and that peaceful picketing
was contradiction in terms. And
of course, he declared that an injunc-
ton should issue.
Justices Holmes, Brandeis, Clarke
and Pitney all dissented; and between
them, they wrote three dissenting
opinions Justice Braindeis wrote an
argument which cited the history OF
more than a hundred year, and is
almost textbook for lawyers who
defend labor injunction cases,

law governing the relations of en-
ployer and employe must abridge, in
some respect, the liberty or property
of one of the parties" said Justice
Brandeis. Justices Pitney and Clarke
could see no reason for denying the
authority of the state But it was
Justice Holmes who wrote the dis
sent that has been quoted ever since,
and will be quoted here.
"The dangers of delusive exact
ness in the application of the Four
teenth amendment have been advert
ed to before now Delusive exact
ness is a source of fallacy throughout
the law By calling business prop
erty' you make it seem like land, and
lead up to the conclusion that stat
ute cannot substantially cut down the
advantages Of ownership existing be
fore the statute was passed
Social Experiments Defended
Justice Holmes went on to say that
he saw no reason why the Arizona
law should not stand, and closed with
these words:
There is nothing that | deprecate
more than the use Of the Fourteenth
amendment beyond the absolute COM
pulsion of its words to prevent the
making of social experiments,
even though the experiments may
I seem futile or even noxious to me"

Widespread Loss of Savings, Homes, Insurance
In Indiana Community Typical of Condi-
tions Due to Unemployment in Other Indus
trial Sections, Women's Bureau Says.

Washington, D. C. (ILNS) How
unemployment and other results Of
business depression strip w-wage
families of their savings, homes and
insurance is revealed in report by
the Women's Bureau of the U. S. De
partment of Labor. The report is bas-
ed on a house-to- house survey covering
1,120 households in the Industrial
community of South Bend and Misha-
waka, Ind.
"The conditions found in this indus
trial community are not peculiar to
this district but would be found to
exist in many industrial sections in
almost any part of the country" the
report says The findings are elo-
quent testimony Of the need Of Iegis-
lation for social security"
The work experiences and economic
problems of / 1,468 women and 1899
men were recorded by Women's Bu-
reau agents during the late summer
and fall of 1882.
Home Buying Common
Sixty-six per cent Of the women
and 20 per cent Of the men We're nor
mally employed in manufacturing.
The other third of the women work
ers looked for a livelihood chiefly to
domestic and personal and clerical
service, or to jobs as saleswomen.
The families were, on the
whole, thrifty inclined, the re-
port says. Nearly three fourths
Of the households owned or were
buying their homes. In about 95
per cent of the households report
ing, one or more persons had car
ried personal insurance in the
years just prior to the study, and
So per cent stated that they had
accumulated savings in the past.
The bulletin shows what terrific
tolls the prolonged siege of the de-
preston had taken even by the fall of
1882 from these families. Many of
them through no fault of their own
had had their security completely I'M
dermined They had reached the end
of their resources or were struggling
along in extremely straitened crcum
stances.
Savings of All Kinds Go
Loss Of jobs; irregular and part
time employment; greatly reduced
| earnings; loss Of home in 48 in
stances; and deferred payment Oh
| homes in many others; lapse of all in.
surance in s per cent Of the house
holds and some of the insurance il
! almost a fifth; retrenchments il
housing, food, clothing, fuel, lighting
these were among the difficulties
reported.
Of the households that had ac
cumulated savings, almost two-ffths
had lost them in whole or in part ol
had them tied up in closed banks.
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1936-03-20
Incomes Inadequate

Data on earnings are cited to show
the serious inadequacy Of incomes for
both families and individuals. For
example, the median earned income
for the households which had some
money coming in during the four
weeks prior to the interview was
$45.45 or $ll.35 a week half the
households showing incomes Of less
and half more than such amount Ii
practically 10 per cent Of the house
holds there was no one employed
during the four weeks.
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1936-03-20

fourth had had to use their savings to
pay running expenses.
About third of the households
had borrowed money, chiefly on IN
surance and furniture, but others
without security.
Relief Expenditures Soar
BY the fall of 1882, some months
before the federal emergency relief
administration was created, over
two-ffths Of the households had re-
ceived aid from outside sources; 10
per cent from public funds, chiefly an
allowance for food Even in 1882
more than 10 times as much was
spent in South Bend for relief as in
1929.
Unemployment had swept through
the ranks Of the South Bend wage
earners like a devastating plague, ii
is shown In August, 1882, two-ffths
Of the women and a little over two
fifths of the men were out of work.
OF the men and women still employed
only about a third had full-time jobs.

GERMAN CANADIAN
TRADE PACT DRAWN
Agreement Reported Facilitating
Balanced Trade Between
Two Countries.

OTTAWA, October 26 canadian
Press Details of a German-Canad-
ian Observation-Disclosures" trade agree
r1ent, in which the German govern
n1ent has undertaken to remove
discrimination which previously ex-
listed against Canadian citizens in COM
parison with United States citizens,
were disclosed here last night.
The agreement, it was said, will
make possible an almost even balance
between Canada's exports to and i'm
ports from Germany.
Although INSTRUMENTATION ar
fangements have been in effect oe-
tween the two countries on tenn
porary basis since January /, 1888 the
advantages Canada expected to derive
from the earlier arrangement were to
q large extent nullified by the drastic
control on the granting of foreign ex-
change introduced in Germany In
September, 1884.
Under the new agreement Canada
would receive relaxation of German
restrictions on mercantile credits, con-
tinuation of the INSTRUMENTATION
treatment with respect to tariffs and
removal of discrimination against
Canadian holders of German bonds in
comparison with United States holders.

Young Roosevelt made the assertion
In a broadcast speech last night as
q reply to Gov. ALI M. Landon OF
Kansas. Republican presidential nomi-
nee, who declared last Friday utterly
untrue" and malicious" charges had
been made against the Kansas school
system by member Of the Presidents
Immediate family"
Earlier Roosevelt had said he would
absolutely prove" in his address pre-
vious remarks he had made about the
Kansas school system.
Roosevelt, in his address, quoted w.
r. Markham, superintendent for pub
lie instruction for the State of Kansas,
as writing United States Senator
George McGill, Democrat, of Kansas,
last February q and saying there
were 444 school districts in Kansas
that made provision for sending their

open schools at all"
Last Tuesday Roosevelt claimed
Markham declared go there are
81 rural schools in operation today

posal."
He quoted another famed educator,
William McAndrew," as saying II can
not pump up my enthusiasm for any

ficiaI Said.
BY the Associated Press.

WICHITA, Kans.. October 26.-Will
G. West, Republican candidate Tor
Governor of Kansas, commenting to-
day on the radio speech at Boston last
night of James Roosevelt, said. I'VE
are perfectly willing to rest the case OF
Kansas schools on Mr.. Markham's own
letter, but in the interest Of truth and
fairness he should be quoted fully"
1T is unfortunate" West said, that
Mr.. Roosevelt did not quote w. T.
Markham completely. 1t is true that
Mr.. Markham said there were 444
schools closed, but he also said there
were 1000 more that should be closed
In the interests of more efficient and
better education.
kansas has a school system Of
which any State can be proud. We
have had our problems and we will
continue to have them, In our schools
as we'll as in other departments. But
we will continue to solve them as we
have in the past
