inner ring of defenses.
Basques said the situation was "seri.
out, but not desperate"
They asserted stiff resistance had
blocked Mola's onslaught and halted
other offensives at Orduna, % miles

Insurgent aviators paved the way
for the attack yesterday, bombing the
defense lines in coordination with
an artillery barrage.

stroyed in a raid on the Albericia

NEW LABOR BOARD
FINDS TASK HEAVY
Strike a Day for Month Is
Record of Wisconsin
Group of Three.
Bv the Associated Press.


MADISON, Wis, May 3l-They
are busy men, those three on Wiscon-
sins new State Labor Relations Board.
The rule book calls it a part-time
job.
In their theoretical spare time the
three have other jobs that keep them
busy: Voyta Wrabetz is chairman of
the State Industrial Commission;
Prof. Edwin E. Witte, who assisted in
drafting President RooseveltS social
security bill. is dean of the depart
ment Of economies at the University
of Wisconsin; Rev. Francis J. Haas,
former National Labor Board medi-
ator under the N r. A., has work
piled up at Milwaukee, where he is
president of st. Francis Seminary.
Strike a Day for Month
A strike day has been the Labor
Boards quota since it was organized
less than month ago under a law
patterned after the Wagner labor act.
1t has yet to call its first formal
meeting.
The members credit a talk things
over" policy with steering 20 Of the
80 disputes handled to happy con-
clusion.
Not all of the work ACCOMPLISHED
goes into the record book. The board
has secured settlements in a con-
siderable number Of cases where strikes
had been called, but had not yet
started" Dr. Witte declared
Wrabetz, Witte and Father Haas
follow but single rule: Get en-
ployer and worker to make an honest
effort to settle differences and the
trouble usually ends"
Lack of Understanding.
Witte said one of the chief difficult
ties confronting the board has been
the lack of understanding on the part
OF employers that the State Legis-
lature passed law defining collective
bargaining rights Many do not
realize, he added, that the law sets
forth long list of unfair labor prac-
tices in which employers are for
hidden to engage.
While most of the time it is just
a case of the employer not knowing
the law" Witte said, there is also the
occasional case of unions demanding
the moon" Then it is up to the Labor
Board to bring demands down to
common plane.
Witte is of the opinion an election
is not always the best way of adjust
ing labor dispute. He believes in
arbitration where the trouble concerns
wages, and compromise where it in
wolves the closed shop question.

In this rapid review of the
twenty nations mentioned we
have, of necessity, omitted many
details that would distinguish po-
litical situations in various coun-
tries. Generally, we believe the
outline above win be found fair
and that It win aid readers to
understand conditions In this
hemisphere. A few words may be
in order about Mexico, our inn
mediate neighbor, where the Gov
eminent openly supports the
Spanish loyalists, opposes the ex-
pansion policies of Rome, Berlin
and Tokyo. and is actively aiding
laborers on farms and In fac
tories. The effort at social re-
form Is clouded, at times, by the
religious issue, and the Mexican
Government is regarded in dicta-
tor countries, as the Russia of the
West. incidentally, at least one
dictator has labeled President
Roosevelt as a communist"
