DEBAUCHING THE CcC


Dorothy Thompson drew attention
recently to the fact that politics ant
graft have crept into the CCC.
Until about eight months ago, she
wrote, the CCC was largely outside
the realm OF politics. But early last
winter, inspectors were informed
from Washington that all men who
held even the most meniai admins
trative positions anything above
and including the rank OF foreman
must obtain the Endorsement Of their
congressman. It developed that
the Endorsement could be obtained
by paying a congressman $50 for his
good viii" Miss Thompson, care
full and accurate writer, then added:
This, by the way, is not conjecture.
1t happened"
What a putrid mess! A subdivision
OF the Government which had come
to be regarded by the generality of
as the most valuable
agencies set mp by the New Deal.
has been deliberately |
turned over to the politicians as a |
refuge for jObseekers. We cannot be-
lieve that this could have happened /
without the knowledge of President
Roosevelt.
We do not mean to insinuate that
Mr.. Roosevelt was privy to the pas
age of $50 into the itching palm of
he congressman Miss Thompson
las referred to. OF course, he was
lot, but when political spoilsmen
set out to debauch an
hlcient governmental agency by
,lacing all its major appointees in
he hands Of patronage brokers, then
re are almost inclined to say that

Guess Who?

Can you guess who is speaking? Just listen
to this splendid analysis of our present system.
"Now the c|ountry's wealth, the c%ountry's OPP
portunities, the %country's coal, iron, oil, sugar,
meat, lead, ice-ALL necessities are in the hands
of a few individuals, and the nation is drifting
toward a condition which will give US a few pre-
posterously rich men and a population of clerks
a situation to be aggravated by coal or meat
famines and by rioting Of workingmen made des-
perate through monopoly Of the labor field.
There can be no doubt in the mind OF any
man that something has got to be done to meet
this situation.
"The Congress of the United States must deal
with the question of ownership and control Of
the great national monopilies, the railroads and
other public franchises.
"This question Of government ownership is no
longer a theory, is no longer in the stage of dis
cussion. It can no longer be sneeringly dis
missed by the ultra-proseprous as a ridiculous
communistic dream. 1t is the important, press
ing question of the hour. -.
Every sane person realizes and admits the
justice of this demand. There is no question as
10 tue SOulullCSa VI government OWuCioilp WHSu
the alternative is to freeze. The egregiously
stupid coal trust must be thanked for presenting
the issue Of government ownership so squarely to
the people.
Shall nine-tenths Of the wealth Of the United
States be owned by nine or ten trusts, or by the
whole ~people?"
Who is this radical who speaks thus? Who is
this anti-American who attacks the foundation
Of our present economic s~ystem-private prop
erty?
His name is William Randolph Hearst. Yes,
the same Hearst who now opposes even the mild
measures of the New Deal as being too, too
radical; the same Hearst who sees in the 7. V. A.,
a "communistic dream"
The fine phrases printed above were uttered
by Hearst in an editorial that appeared in all his
papers on Oct. 5, 1902.
Socialists and progressive trade u%nionists agree
with this editorial and go further and say that
nothing less than complete specialization of in
dustry will bring security to the workers OF this
country and the world. Socialist thinking has
progressed; Hearts thinking has retrogressed.
Montana labor news., 1936-01-23
Government of Autocracy.

Now that the Supreme Court has rendered an
other Knockout blow to the right OF our elected
lawmakers to make laws for the masses Of our
people, it may be possible for several millions OF
our people to understand just what the Supreme
Court of the United States means. In the first
place it would be we'll for us to consider, just
who and what this, "Holier than thou" group
consists of. Their legal training is that Of large
corporation attorneys. Their sympathies are
primarily toward perpetuation Of large %institu-
tions of capital.
Their legal foundation is the protection of pri-
vate property.
Private property as defined under our present
economic set up, does not mean the protection Of
the workingman's home; it means the protec-
ton of invested capital in large institutions.
Here, on the AAA decision we have six against
the law and three for it.
This means that six old men with capitalist
minds, become the dictators with greater power
than the combined legislative bodies and the
president Of the United States. Well, when the
workers of this country get tired of such a farce
as the Supreme Court they can take steps to put
a crimp in their supreme dictatorship. The Su-
preme Court of these United States is the last
bulwark of entrenched capitalist greed.

Wall Street Alarmed
By the Townsend
Victory in Michigan
Famous
Cooking Authority

NEW YORK.-(FP)-Wall Street is
throwing up its hands in horror at the
prospect Of the growing strength Of the
Townsend old-age pension movement.
The 2-to-1 victory Of Republican
Werner w. Main in the third Michigan
congressional district has given the ma
TONS financial center n of its worst
cases Of the filters as it realizes that
Mains campaign was based solely or
the Townsend program Of $200-a-month
pensions to all persons over 90 years.
The Townsend group, it is feared in
big business circles, will grow strongly
during the months before the national
election and will be a serious factor in
the coming campaign.
The New York Herald-Tribune,
which has been consistently anti-New
Deal, could scarcely rejoice that a Re
publican had been elected by the Mich
gan voters. Praising the attack Of
Senator Vandenburg on the pension
iplan, the paper commented editorially !:
Those good people who sincerely sup
port it = and they are many have
not yet had the chance to understand
that it is suicidal. The fullest open
discussions is indispensable"
The New York Times, lately quite
outspoken in its criticism of the New
Deal, carried out the same line, much
concerned over the fact that the cleo
ton has been described as the peoples
expression on the Townsend plan in no
uncertain terms" Seeing in the cleo
ton a warning given to responsible
leaders Of both parties that they must
spell out the economics Of the Town
sen plan the Times editorially warned
that the plans simplicity should not be
allowed to conceal its inherent dan
gers"
More liberal observers, while often
disagreeing with the plans transaction
tax scheme, saw in the election a note
of rebuff to the administration for its
failure to provide economic security for
aged and young alike.
Montana labor news., 1936-01-23

huge building projects-how the bricks
were often of the wrong shape or Of
poor quality-how he and his gang
overcame these difficulties and got the
building done somehow.
Workmen Answers Boldly
They sat and listened, all these i'm
portant ones, and broke into his speech
with questions and suggestions. Zmurin
answered them boldly. He knows his
ljob-he is one OF the new ~Stakhanoff
school, which is driving Soviet industry
to heights hat may soon catch up with
America or surpass it and is already
doing so. People talk about tyranny
and forced labor in Russia, but Zmurin
and millions Of other workers like him
do not agree.
AS a DOUGH Of cold common sense
there came the speech Of Mr.. Ginsberg,
chief of the central administration Of
the Soviet Building Department. Mr..
Ginsberg, a bespectacled and bald citi-
zen, also was not afraid to tell the as
sembled dignitaries what was wrong
with Soviet building. He produced a
chart showing that the average Ameri-
can building workman got the same re-
suits as four Russians. It is true that
they have cheap labor here, but Mr..
Ginsberg shocked them nevertheless.
Then he talked about quarry work
ana said the average American quarry
man produced ten times more than the
average Russian. That shocked them
again, but they took it.
There is a moral to this story-or two
morals. The first is that an honest,
two-fisted workman can stand up and
talk today in this country where the
czars were masters, where the landlords
and gendarmes were masters and the
rest Of the nation were slaves. The
second is that the Russians are able to
recognize their own mistakes, learn
from them, and profit from them.
