The Key West citizen. [volume] (Key West, Fla.) 1879-current, 1937-12-29

The recent impulse apparently
came from a small luncheon, held
in a private dining room at the
capital on December 3, when
Democratic Senator Byrd of Vir-
ginia invited eight Democrats and
two Republicans to quail sup
per. The birds were furnished by
Senator Townsend, Republican of
Delaware. The other Republican
present was Senator Vandenburg
of Michigan. The Democrats
present included a sturdy group
of conservative members: Sena-
tor Carter Glass and Harry Byrd,
of Virginia; King of Utah; George,
of Georgia; Bailey, of North Caro-
lima: Van Mugs, of Indiana; and
Cotton Ed" Smith, of South
Carolina. Lewis w. Douglass, for
mer Budget Director, noted for
his policy of drastic economy and
orthodox economics, joined in the
discussion. Mr.. Douglass is gen.
orally considered the intellectual
leader of the Anti-New Deal wing
within the Democratic Party.

All of the Democrats in the
above list were among those who
fought the President on the Court

economic thinking. The presence
of Senator Vandenburg is notable

The President, it is recognized,
is not in a belligerent mood and is
anxious to maintain peace, but it
is not believed that this can be
obtained by a retreat into a shell
of isolation. Moreover, diplo-
matte experts fear that favorable
action upon the amendment by
Congress will seriously weaken
the Government hand in deli
cate foreign situation. These OBJ
servers point out that Hitler, Mus
solini and Japan have risked their
manoeuvres in the past few years
because of conviction that the
democratic nations viii not OPP
pose them by force. Their only
restraint, in the opinion Of many,
is their fear of going too far and
forcing the democracies to COM
bine against them.
Readers are probably familiar
with the revelations concerning
the japanese attack on the gum
boat Panay. Practically every
thing that has come out since the
first news of the sinking of the
American ship has convinced of
ficials that the attack was delib-
crate and inspired in the belief
that it would convince the Chin
csc that Japan had nothing to
fear from the United States.

The war referendum amend
ment to the Constitution, propos-
ed by Representative Ludlow,
will come to a vote at the regular
session, a petition having been
signed by more than majority to
take it from a committee and
bring it to the floor. Opinion on
the advisability of adopting such
an amendment varies widely
throughout the country but be-
cause of the strong peace senti-
ment, there win be considerable
pressure exerted for its passage.

San Francisco Laundry
Closing Law Held Void

San Francisco, Calif.-The munich
pal ordinance recently enacted in San
Francisco regulating working hours
in laundries has been held unconsti-
tutional in a superior court decision
rendered by Judges Walter Perry
Johnson, James G. Conlan and C. j.
Goodell.
The opinion was rendered in the
case Of Chinese who had been con-
victed for working one hour beyond
the pm. closing time stipulated by
the ordinance.
AS the basis for their decision the
judges cited a ruling of the supreme
court of the United States in 1905
which held that an attempt by the
state of New York to limit the baking
industry to a 60-hour week was un-
constitutional.

JUDGE REFUSES
TO ENJOIN UNIONS

st. Louis, Mo. (ILNS)-A suit to
enjoin two American Federation of
Labor unions from maintaining the
strike called at the plant of the Cup
pies Company, ST. Louis, was denied
by Federal Judge Collet, who heard
testimony in the case on August 80.
Judge Collett in his opinion dis
missing the petition held the contro-
versy at the plant is a tabor dispute"
and comes within the provisions of the
Norris-LaGuardia act which legalizes
strikes and picketing.
He held "it is obvious congress in
tended the federal courts should not
interfere in labor disputes even where
there was violence or fraud unless it
appeared local law enforcement agen-
cies were unable or unwilling to fur
nish adequate protection to compa-
nies involved in such disputes" He
added, testimony shows the city of
st. Louis has been active and Jealous
in performance of its duty in furnish
ing of such protection"
The Cupples Company had ques-
toned the right of the unions to call
the strike after they had invoked the
powers of the NLRB to determine
whether the unions represented the
majority of employees of the COM
pany.
