A. F. |. COUNCIL
SEALS CUSTER
OF UNIONS
BY EDWARD B. LOCKETT
International News Service

The American Federation of
Labor today hammered home a
final wedge of dissenSion between
the craft union forces of its preSi-
dent, William Green, and the in
dustrial union groups headed by
John L. Lewis of the United Mine
Workers.
The executive council approved
q report asking the A. F. of L.
annual convention, which con-
venes Nov. Is in Tampa, Fla, to
back it up in expeling the ten
unions supporting Lewis. The
council suspended the Lewis
forces, but a two-thirds majority
vote of the convention delegates
is necessary to expel them.
Fight to Finish
This action cast the die for a
fight to the finish between Green
and Lewis, the old order and the
new. Lewis is credited with put
ting Green where he is today.
Expulsion of the 10 unions now
organized by Lewis as the Com
mittee for Industrial Organization
was regarded as inevitable today.
Suspended, they will have no vote
in the convention, and thus. Green
will have little trouble mastering
the necessary two-thirdS major
ity of the voting delegates. But
that will be only the beginning of
the real fight.
After the convention, when the
Lewis forces turn on the heat"
as they intend. in their defiant
drive to organize the steel and
allied industries along mass or
industrial lines, will come the
real test of trength. Today, Lewis
forces comprise more than a mil
lion union member, or about a
third of the A. F.. of LIS roster.
Convention Is Test
The fireworks will start on the
convention floor. Two big unions
still in the A. F. of L., but leaning
toward the industrial unionists,
are expected to lead in the opposi-
ton to the expulsion movement.
They are the powerful Interna-
tional Typographical Union and
the United HatterS.
It is altogether probable that
when it is all over at the conven-
ton, the I. T. U. and the matters
will be aligned definitely with
Lewis. A number of smaller
bodies are expected to openly an
rounce POLICIES sympathetic to the
industrial unioniSts.

Two Minute Sermon
Up Thomas HastwelD

Can we find Such a One AS This:
When Joseph stood before King
Pharaoh and interpreted his me-
morable dream after all the other
seers had failed, and outlined the
program that should be followed to
save Egypt from famine, the king
realizing that this would require a
man of unusual ability and of un-
questioned honesty and integrity,
turned to those about him and
said: Can we find such a one as
this, a man in whom the spirit OF
God 50" This is the question that
has been asked countless times
since, as great tasks calling for a
high degree of honesty and integ-
rity have faced the people. The
quality of simple, common hon
esty, how much it means in the ad-
ministration of our affairs today?
How many times have we seen men
called to positions of trust and
given great opportunities, only to-
see them fail utterly and break
down under the strain Of tempta-
ton and prove false to their trusts?
More than ever before in the his
tory of mankind does Pharaoh's
cry go up for men of integrity, for
men of high principle, for men who
cannot be bought and who cannot
be sold, for men Of courage who
in the face Of big affairs do not
lose their sense of values, for men
to whom honesty is ever a virtue
and a practice. These are the men
in whom the Spirit of God is.

OIL WHICH "PLATES"

that "marries" metal and combines

today by chemists of the Contl-
mental Oil Company who reported
the scientific details of the de-
velopment at recent meetings OF

The plating" of the metal IS
said to be accomplished by adding
to mid-cotninent mineral OIL new
chemical with so strong an attrac-
ton for metal that minute layers
Of the lubricant are locked tight

parts forming what is virtually an

that the film continues to lubrl-

WHAT WE THINK
(By Frank Dixon)

In a city of 68,784 near where
live the tax assessor took 54,242
tax statements. Tax could be
collected on but 17,494 of these, 23,-
S96 persons signed affidavits stat
ing they owned no property at all
and 1892 had statements on which
the constitutional exemption of
5000 allowed in my state wiped
out all taxable value. 5000 Of the
17,494 taxable statements became
delinquent and it cost $4,000 to
collect them. In the absence of
any other form of taxation 17,494
paid the entire cost of government
for the city. 1t so happens that
this city has a large percentage of
wage earners, and an unusually
large number being employed at
fair salaries even through depres.

and naval rearmament to be COM

answer to that was to move its
army across the Rhine, occupying
territory which, under the Versailles
Treaty and the later Pact of Loc-
arno, it was obligated to keep de-
militarized. But Hitler declared
those treaties had been rendered
void by the new treaty between
France and Russia.
All of those things are fighting

Or they may result only in a read
justment of European relations

FREE SPEECH

Quite number of good Ameri-
cans have shown indignation over
the fact that Earl Browder, secre-
tary of the Communist Party, was
allowed to broadcast a speech on
his party's principles the other day.
Many more American citizens have
got all worked up over the fact
that some schools and colleges ac-
tually try to explain to their stu
dents the principles of Commun-
ism-along with the principles of
other forms of government, in
cluding our own.
One of the prime principles of
Americanism is the right of every
body to speak freely on any subject.
Another American principle is that
everybody should understand as
much as possible about his own
government-and others. Ef we
are afraid that Communism or any
other ''ism'' is so a1luring that most
folks will prefer it to what we
have, that does not speak very we'll
for our faith in our own system.
But the best way-the American
way-to maintain our own insti-
tutions is to let those who over
throw them talk all they please.
Suppression of Communism or of
anything else only tends to en-
courage its advocates.

There are somewhat more than
20 million men and women over
21 years old in the United States
who are qualified to vote for Presi-
Dental electors this year. In 1892
few more than SO million cast
their ballots for the candidates of

half of those who were qualified
did not vote.
There are no figures to show
what proportion of the voters who
went to the polls four years ago

women. Many of my political

decide this years election. l find,
among women of ages of my ac-

POLITICS election
I have been writing about politics
for more than 40 years. There
have been several presidential cam
paigns, in these 40 years, in which
the result could be predicted with
certainty, even before the candi-
dates were nominated. This does
not look to me like that kind of a
year.
To both Democratic and Repub-
lican friends the advice I give when
they ask me for it is not to be too
confident. l think it will be close
election. 1t certainly will be a
hard-fought campaign. But as
things stand now, I would say the
odds are in favor of Mr.. Roosevelt,
no matter who may be nominated
against him.
That is, as matter of fact, al
most always the case when Presi-
dent stands for reelection. The

a well-organized party machine and
the outs seldom do.

No very definite program for the

Act has yet been formulated by
Secretary Wallace, who is in charge

There will be on contracts with
individual farmers specifying how
much each may produce, as under
the AAA. Some system of bonus
payments to those who voluntarily
retire acreage from cultivation and
plant it to soil conserving crops of
nature that will not disturb the
market for farm staples is what is
contemplated.
1t is not an easy thing to figure
out system that will accomplish

acres out of cultivation and dis

Resistance is very strong to any

ent. There is also strong indi-
cation that there will be many ex-

There is little likelihood of higher
taxes on liquor and tobacco. There
is much more likelihood of new
taxes that will increase the costs Of
food and clothing.

nearly 100000 more year in
new taxes. The chances are that
Congress will vote about s5oo,Ooo,-

anything for the continuation of

have to be provided for relief for

comes to, that and the budget de-
