tions of injury, but, strikingly enough,
the growth and fantastic character of
these allegations showed gradually
increasing uniformity.
4sThe process was like rolling
SNOWFALL The allegations in a plead
ing filed by an employer in Georgia,
for example, would show up in pre-
cisely the same wording in pleading
filed in Seattle. There came a very
rapid and widespread exchange of
pleadings all over the country until
all had exhausted their ingenuity in
lconjuring up the many and gross in
juries which it was alleged a hear
ing before the board would entail'
Hearings Reveal Spy Activities
Nevertheless, in the 83 cases filed,
the plea for a temporary injunction
was defeated in SO cases, granted in
l20, and is pending in 4.
sThe cases heard and decided by the
| board have revealed what the hear
ings of the La Toilette committee
have since disclosed to be wide
spread practice in American industry
the use of professional labor spies
and undercover men" says the board
1t gives instances, and then passes
to the activities of professional labor
sluggers, quoting its decision on one
A. A. Ahner, employed by the Brown
Shoe Co.:
Actually, Ahner has a reputation
as a professional strike breaker and
union -wrecker, and employer of thugs,
sluggers ard armed guards in his
strike breaking activities, planter
of labor spies in factories and labor
organizations, has been implicated in
framing union leaders, and is motor
Iious in the ST. Louis industrial area
for successful terrorism in his chosen
field
Local Officials Aid Bosses
The same case shows that if other
methods fail, such persons do not
hesitate to slug union organizers. In
lsuch activities, employers may some
times count on the cooperation Of
local officials In Ca Jones & Laughlin
case in Pennsylvania union organ
lizer who was distributing union pam
Iphlets was set upon by two persons,
who beat him severely. He was then
taken before justice of police, fined
l$5, and refused transcript of record
for purposes of appeal. In the same
case, the president Of the union, while
on his way to work at night . was
followed by Jones & Laughlin police
car. He lost sight of the car, and
passing an alley, he was stopped and
struck. He asked for police protec-
tion at the station. He was told:
Get the hell out Of here. You don't
deserve protection.

Power Not Usurped

"The congress has not sought to
exercise a power not granted or to
usulp the police powers of the states
1t has not acted on any assumption
Of a power enlarged by virtue Of
state action.
"'The congress has exercised its
plenary power which is subject to no
limitation other than that which is
found in the constitution itself. The
congress has formulated its own poll
icy and established its own rule. The
fact that it has adopted its rule in
order to aid the enforcement Of valid
state laws affords no ground for con-
|stitutional objection
The court discarded a contention
that the law was invalid because the
goods produced in Kentucky prison
We're not themselves harmful. 1t
said:
''The contention is inadmissible that
the act of congress is invalid merely
because the horse collars and har-
mess which petitioner manufactures
and sells are useful and harmless
articles.

may accept such goods for shipment
to any state which prohibits their
sale in the open market. Chief JUS
tice Hughes, who read the decision,
said
In the congressional action there
is nothing arbitrary or capricious
bringing the statute into collision
with the requirements Of due process
Of law
"The congress in exercising the
power conided to it by the consti-
tuition is as free as the states to
recognize the fundamental interests
of free labor nor has the congress
attempted to delegate its authority to
the states.

CANCER FUNDS
UP AT HEARING

Medical experts from all parts
Of the United States gather at a
meeting of the Senate Commerce
Committee today to testify in be-

lie an annual Federal appropria-
ton Of one million dollars to be

V|CCONFERENCE
ON TAXES SOUGHT
Northeast Citizens Confer.
ence to Sponsor Parley
for "Workable" Plan.

Headed by President A. F. E. Scheer,
he Joint Northeast Conference Of
Citizens Associations decided last
hight to sponsor meeting of repre-
entatives from every civic organiza-
ion in the District for discussion Of
he tax situation.
Spurred by the business receipts tax
md other recent levies. the group has
agreed that something must be DONE
about District taxes. They hope that
MT Of the proposed meeting will come
scientific and workable" tax plan
which will be acceptable to District
authorities and also eliminate the dis
satisfaction caused by the present
system.
The possibility Of q sales tax was
discussed. Using figures compiled by
he Greater National Capital Commit
zee, Scheer pointed out that more
than 100000 visitors come to Wash
ington annually and spend approx
mately s35.000,000. He said if or
! per cent tax had been in effect
last year, taxes from this source alone
would have relieved District residents
Of goodly portion of the burden.
Discussing real estate taxes, the ad-
visibility of homestead exemption was
mentioned. The feeling of the group
was that homestead property valued
at less than $4,000 should be free
from taxation.
In the discussion Of Maryland and
Virginia children going to District
schools, an "unverifed' charge was
made that eight schools in Montgom-
cry and Prince Georges counties had
heen forced to close for lack OF pupils.
A resolution was passed requesting
that non-District pupils attending
Washington schools be required to pay
m adequate" tuition.

the Federal A. A. A. Division Of Mar
keting and Marketing Agreements.

up marketing agreements applying 10
three large Western producing areas.

agreement program in referenda. One
agreement would cover Michigan.
Wisconsin, Minnesota and IS counties
in North Dakota. Another would apply
to Colorado, Nebraska and Wyoming.
the third to 80 counties IN idaho.
Maine, the fourth area where a vote
was taken. rejected the marketing
plan.

were intended to Improve the quality
Of pota toes sold for household con.
sumption and increase the return to
growers for the large crop now being
harvested"

School Boy Patrols

~ URING recent years when the nationwide traffic
~ toll has shown alarming increases there has been
a notable decrease in traffic deaths among the age
groups covering school children.
This one encouraging fact in otherwise gloomy
situation is largely attributable to the fine boys and
girls comprising the School Boy Patrol, now holding
their annual meeting in Washington.
The country cannot be too grateful these youngsters
who chosen because of merit, ability and scholastic
standing, daily stand guard over their fellow school
children.
ORGANIZED under the sponsorship of the American
Automobile Association, and with the cooperation of
school authorities and the police the patrols perform
an invaluable service.
It would beggar almost any community to attempt
to pay for the control which these children with their
white belts exercise traffic IN the immediate
vicinity of the schools.
Without the service which they freely render there
is little doubt that the lives of many children
would be taken as they made their way to or from
school.
Here in Washington the patrols have demonstrated
to the community high type of unselfish service.
They have earned and retained the respect of all
decent motorists who realizing their purpose give them
all assistance in their power.
If the adults of the city could devise means Of self
protection half as effective that which the school
children have thrown about themselves the traffic death
rate in this city would not be much worse this year
than it was last. ..- -. y
Washington, which has grown accustomed to enter
tanning almost all types Of assemblages is particularly
pleased to host to the representatives Of the
fine type of children gathered here for the School Boy
Patrol meeting. .....
: There is much that these children can learn from
their visit to the National Capital much Of the trad
ideasm. '
There is also much that Washington can learn from
the visiting youngsters. I%....> .... 49,
It can gain renewed confidence in the future of our
country from study Of the alertness the intelligence
and the fine character of these visitors
