DEMoRALrzEp BY THEIR OWN LAW

According to Madame Perkins Secretary of La
bor there is no need of regulating or restraining
the Lewis group of unions; give them time, she
says, and like the professions they will develop
their own code of ethics. From another source
comes the comment that the persistent breaches of
contract by the Lewis unions in the automotive
industry are due to the fact that they are newly
organized and have had no practice in self-re-
straint. ,.. ..... --r ..., .... IS. %.
These views skim the surface and ignore the

such bargaining impossible, because 'it takes two
sides to make bargain" So long as, under the
law, only industrial managers can be held to a
bargain and penalzed for breaking it, there is but

the devastating effects Of soil erosion quilted

Unnecessary jobs, padded payrolls, waste due to
inefficient and extravagant jobholders each year
amount to more than the entire cost of the army
and navy for 1886. It is more than the estimated
total of all federal income taxes to be collected
this year.

THE smARrEsr SCHEME

The understanding is general and is commonly
accepted that the moneys received by the federal
government from compulsory insurance or Social
Security" will be applied to the national debt, now
thirty-six thousand millions of dollars, it has in
creased fourteen thousand millions in three years,
and it must be said that it is stroke of genius on
the part of the Roosevelt administration, inasmuch
as it shifts the debt to the shoulders of laborng

delighted with the scheme Incidentally it provides
