THOSE DEMANDS FOR SHORT DAY
Stockton Rec0rd)

In this day CT strikes by Works Progress
Administration employees none throws more con-
tempt on the strikers than that in Los Angeles
where relief workers walked out demanding
six-hour day. Such a demand from men pro-
vided Jobs created at taxpayer expense and for
work that in many cases the community could
do without is the extreme limit.
Many of those given employment are glad
to get the jobs and keep them. But those who
demand a six-hour day show that they would
not be satisfied with any working conditions. II
they got their six-hour day they would want
shorter one and finally their money for no
work at all.
All this would be lovely if the benefits
could be spread around. But the people who
are digging up the money 10 provide these
projects are not working for any siXhour stretch.
They must put in ful day and will have to do
so if these created jobs are to continue.

Speaker Joe Byrns, friend of Presi-
dent Roosevelt and the New Deal, re-
mained in congress from 1909 until his
death this week because he acted and
voted as he believed best, not because he
was a member of the Democratic party
or a unit in any political faction. He
rendered services as valuable to the Re-
publicans as to the Democrats, because
his services were given for the good of
his country as he saw it.
In Speaker Byrns' life there might
be a moral of considerable value to the
Marion Zionchecks, Huey Longs and
other violent individualists of congress.
Byrns became a powerful figure in
American public life because he studied
problems, acted only after due delibera-
ton, and did not make target of him
self by seeking notoriety. The differ
ence between Marion Zioncheck and
Speaker Byrns is the difference be-
tween notOriety and fame
Byrns did not control only his own
vote in congress, but those of quite a
few lesser lights. 1t was not voluble
oratory or bombast which accomplish
ed his end 1t was quiet, low-voiced con-
versation He appealed to the reason,
not to the passions. The esteem in which
he came to be held by political friends
and political foes alike is tribute to
the Mans methods.

There is no better sign of the return
of good times to Imperial Valley than
reports from SRA and WPA headquar-
ters in this county. The SRA has less
than 200 families on its rolls. The WPA
has 406 men and women available for as
signment to Works Progress Administra-
ton jobs-and has had to discontinue
several projects because there were not
sufficient laborers to fill the need. Jobs
in private industry have absorbed the
hundreds who formerly besieged relief
offices here
Of those on SRA-those receiving dir
ect relief-a majority is unemployable.
Others can do only light work They
are the ones who will be public charges
come what may, good times or bad. The
community must support them in pros
perity as well as in depression 1t is not
an abnormal situation Those others who
were on SRA rolls before-those who
could work but found no work to do-at
last have found jobs. They are no longer
ION relief" 1t is a tribute to the COM
munity that this is so.
The light-work classification extends
too to WPA lists, where the able bodied
individuals rapidly are vanishing into the
ranks of private industry They have
been tided over a time of stress they are
on their own feet again at last.
The same is not true of every commu-
nifty, but it is becoming more and more
true in a large portion of the United
States. The up-swing is not local, it is
national Since no one community is i'm
mune from the things which affect an
other, there is room for widespread cheer
fulness in the lessened relief rolls.
