Presidential Candidates
Record On Utilities
Told By Judson King
Roosevelts Stand Issue Praised; Others Not So Good
National Popular Government League Head Thinks.

Landon: "The outstanding charac
teristic of Governor Landon on ma
tional utility issues is his silence"
1t would appear that Landon is
tion of utilities, who has mildly car
ried on policies inaugurated by his
predecessors, is opposed to local mu-
nicipal ownership, and has said moth
ing on nationally important utility
legislation and policies.
Roosevelt's Stand Outlined
Roosevelt: For over seven years,
as governor and president, Mr.
Roosevelt by deed and word, has shown
his objective to be greatly increased
use of electricity through lower rates
and protection of investors against
fraudulent securities; that he is not a
public ownership man as such, but in
sists on the right of municipalities and
states to establish public ownership
at their option when dissatisfied with
private company rates and service,
He holds that great water power sites
should be retained in public owner
ship and operation, and has set up
a sound agency to promote rural
electrification.
VaEdenburg's Record Mixed
Dickinson, Of Iowa, is summed up as
a progressive once but a conservative
now, opposed to any advance in util-
ity matters. Senator Vandenburg's
record is given at some length, with
the conclusion that the Michigan SEN
ator is rather mixed. He voted Nay
on the IVA act, and Yea on Boulder
DAM and is against municipal owner
ship. If elected president, his admin
istration would be favorable to pri-
vate utility interests"

SECRETARY PERKINS
To Press Campaign For Bet

u. S. Sailors

New York City ILNS)-Secretary
Of Labor Perkins inspected the living
quarters Of the crew Of the Queen
Mary, found them good, and came up
from the lower regions of the ship
saying that she will do her utmost
to get a comprehensive federal in
quiry into living and working condi
tions on American ships.
Miss Perkins spent no time in view
ing the passenger accommodations
of the great Cunard liner She dived
at once to the living and working
quarters Of the crew. She visited
kitchens, mess halls, lavatories, sleep
ing cabins She talked with the sooty
and shirtless members of the BLACK
gang"
She pronounced the crew quarters
the best she had ever seen; but re-
served her warmest praise for the con-
ditioned air vents in the sleeping quar-
ters of the crew
That's the greatest thing about the
ship" she declared. Grew quarters
are usually SO hot that man off
duty finds it hard to rest. This is real
blessing"
Next to that, she admired the read
ing lamp at the head of every bunk
of the crew; and she was feminine
enough to note the white table cloths
from which the crew ate

Washington, D. G. (ILNS)--Judson
King, director of the National Popu-
lar Government League and staunch
advocate of public ownership of pub
lie utilities, has just issued brochure
on "The Utility Records of the Presi-
Dental Candidates" The brochure
contains the facts of record of each
candidate, summary Of that record,
and conclusion as to the probable
course of that candidate on utility
matters if he should be elected.
Briefly, he considers President
Roosevelt's record on utilities just
about perfect; Hoover's record COM
pletely imperfect; and the other
candidates, except Borah, ranging be
tween.
Mr.. Kings summary and forecast"
of the candidates includes the follow
ing:
Borah: 'The record shows that
from the beginning of his senatorial
career, Senator Borah has consistently
held that electric utilities are natu-
raj monopolies, which should be
owned and operated by the public.
. /. He voted with Norris on Muscle
Shoals throughout 1t is safe to
conclude in the light of his outstand-
ing record for 20 years, that, if elect
ed president, Borah would act in the
public interest and support the utility
policies now in effect"
Knox Hoover Conservative
Knox: His paper in Chicago en-
dorsed the ST. Lawrence treaty, and
his other paper in Manchester, N. H.,
opposed the treaty and reioiced at its
defeat. In short, he is a Teddy
Roosevelt Bull Moose conservationist
gone Hoover conservative"

Justice Department Studies
Terrorism Against Strikers

Washington, d. G. (ILNS)- Sam
Whitaker, special assistant to At
torney General Cummings, has been
assigned to probe charges of violations
of federal law in the strike of cotton
choppers and tenant farmers in Ar
kansas. The assignment was made
on complaints from the Southern Ten
ant Farmers Union, the national COM
mittee for rural social planning, and
Sherwood Eddy, of the international
Y. M. G. A.
The cotton choppers have been get
ting rs cents a day, and are striking
for $1.50, and the tenant farmers
are trying to get better terms from
their landlords. But the trick charg
ed, which brought the investigation,
is that the strikers have been arrested
and fined for vagrancy, and then fore
ed to work out their fines on the plan
tations of their employers.
"This is peonage forbidden by law,
edclared Gardner Jackson, chairman of
the national committee on rural social
planning.

Federal Courts Flayed

The greedy seizure by the federal
courts Of dictatorial powers over
state and federal governments dur
inc the past year creates an increas-
ingly alarming threat to newspaper
workers and to labor generally. The
supreme courts interpretations have
gone 50 far that the way y. to
bring our constitutional law up to
date IS closed by the sweeping pre-
cedents Of the Guffey, AAA and other
decisions"
Only a constitutional amendment,
the Guild declared, could save security
legislation.

Peace Is Labor's Goal

While the dominant observance of
Memorial Day is directed in honor Of
the memory of those who served IN
the armed forces of our nation-and
those heroes assuredly deserve all
honor-it might also serve as an oc-
casion to express the hope that the
supreme sacrifice that many have
gladly made in time of war, may
eventually be c me unnecessary,
Peace is a worthy goal for which to
strive. Peace among ourselves; peace
throughout our nation and our ma
ton at peace with the worldl
1T is the ardent hope of the great
American labor movement that indus
trial peace, supported by ample eco
nomic security, may encompass the
width and breadth Of our land; and
the peace Of our nation with all the
rest of the world is likewise devoutly
desired We shall ever strive most
diligently for peace.
Memory of Dead Hallowed
And, so, on this Memorial Day,
1886, organized labor is glad Of the
opportunity to join in this special OBJ
seryance-this special radio tribute by
representatives of labor to the mem
ory Of our fellow workers, to all of
our loved ones and to all Of your loved
ones, who have crossed the Great
Divide We hallow the memory of
those whose material existence on this
earth has ceased, but whose spirit
hovers above US, to give US inspira-
ton, patience and endurance, that we
may carry on in their stead. Peace
be with you!'

THE DANGER OF LENIENT
DEPORTATION LAWS

Rep. Starnes, on the house floor, was
arguing against the Kerr-C Coolidge bill
which would give the federal department
of labor discretionary rights in deport-
alton of aliens. Deportation rules, he
argued, should be fixed so stringently
that any undesirable alien must be de-
ported; not so leniently that an unde-
sirable alien could be kept in this coun-
try at the discretion of the department
of labor merely because his deportation
might split up his family, or work some
other so-called hardship. 1t would be
hard to refute the Alabama representa-
tive's words:
at is my view that the immigration
question is one that should be solved
primarily for the benefit of the country
at large; and such laws should be enact
ed to protect the working standards,
the social and living conditions, the eco
nomic life, and the political structure of
the country passing the law. That is
my conception of an immigration law
and the purpose for which it should be
enacted 1t should not be enacted for
the benefit of criminal Glass; nor the
benefit of an alien group, nor the bene-
fit of alien thought, nor those who are
alien in character and alien in life to
our standards of moral and economic
life"

THE MEXICAN CONSUL
AND THE HARVEST STRIKE

Imperial county will find Col Gar
rlsons protest against Mexican consul
ar activities interesting because if deals
with problem the reverse of that ex-
perlenced here a few years ago. Consul
Joaquin Terrazas, representing the Mex
lcan government in Imperial county. was
perhaps the greatest single stabilizing
force In the pea and cantaloupe harvest
strike OF three seasons ago. His sane
advice to his fellow countrymen was one
OF the things that kept them from fol-
lowing pell-mell in the paths dictated
by radical agitators. He was a wise
leader respected by both factions-and
hated by the radical group.
If Col. Garrison's claims are correct,
the reverse is true in Los Angeles coun-
ty, where Ricardo Hill is Mexican con-
sui. The Associated Farmers president
blames the Mexican consul at Los An
geles with prolonging the strike, at
tempting to lead in organization of a
labor union not connected with the A.
+. of l., and trying to dictate the wages
to be paid by American growers to
American citizens.
Speaking of the strike. Col. Garrison's
letter to Secretary Hull says, at was,
in fact, boycott by workers with the
encouragement of the Mexican consul
and radical agitators."
If Consul Hill has been active in en-
couraging radically inspired labor trou-
bles then it is full time that the secre-
tary of state took notice of his activities.
1t is hard to believe that-if he engaged
in such activities-it was the knowledge
of his government. Imperial Valley can
not help but remember Consul TerrazaS
with reverence.
