G. 0. P. Discloses Lewis's
'About-Face' on Moscow

CHICAGO. - John L. Lewis was
attacked as the leader in a move
ment to preach 1.-The Communist
doctrine of industrial unionism" and
as dominant Roosevelt advisor,
IN pamphlet circulated by the
Republican National committee.
The pamphlet says, in part:
"John L. Lewis, in 1924, de-
nounced industrial union organiza-
tons In his typical belligerent and
two-fisted manner. He termed the
industrial plan at that time as one
born In Moscow, promoted by Mos
COW agents and financed by hun
dreds Of thousands Of dollars by
Red Russia.
EVERY charge that John l.. Lewis
made In 1924 was true and still is
true today. But Mr.. Lewis has since
that time joined those very forces
which he warned against twelve
years ago."

on which the CIO was founded.
But then he referred to the

DECISION CROWNS Is YEARS
OF WAR ON PRISON GOODS
Ruling, Great Labor Victory, Is Seen Opening
Way to Effective Regulation of Hours Pay
and Child Labor.

Washington, D. c. (ILNS) Twen
ty-fve years of labor effort to elm
mate the unfair competition of prison
made products with free labor were
crowned with victory when the U. S.
Supreme Court upheld the Ashurst-
Summers act.
Moreover, the broadness of the de-
cision was heralded by members Of
congress and by leaders of labor and
industry and the public who helped
draft and fight for the bill as pointing
Ia constitutional method of achieving
New Deal objectives in industry regu-
lation 1t was held that the combina-
tion Of federal enabling legislation
and state prohibitory legislation would
apply particularly to elimination of
child labor and for industry regula-
ton in the matter of minimum wages
and maximum hours.
Quick Action Held Possible
If sufficient pressure were exerted
it was asserted, both of these OBJ
jectives could be attained in sixty
days, inasmuch as enough legisla-
lures are now in session to pass laws
which would close enough states to
the market of goods made under un-
| fair conditions so that all manufac-
lures seeking national markets for
their products would be forced to con-
form.
! Laying down the principle that
congress may prevent interstate
transportation from being used to
bring into state articles which the
state has constitutionally forbidden,
the decision was rendered in the suit
brought by the Kentucky Whip & Col
lar Company against the Illinois
Central railroad The decision was
concurred in by all the members.
Twenty-Five states have enacted
laws protecting free labor from the
competition of prison labor. Nc
prison-made goods can be sold in the
open market in these states. The
Hawes- Cooper act denies any inter
state character to convict-made goods
from state prisons, forcing them to
Ibe made in conformance to standards
set up by the laws of the state tc
which the goods are shipped.
4 Second Law Blocks Evasion
The Ashurst-Sumner law, sup
plementing the Hawes- Cooper act
blocks evasion Of this ban OIL prison
made goods. 1t puts teeth into EN-.
forcement by providing that when
shipped in interstate commerce
prison goods must bear a label on the
container, telling in plain print the
name of the prison where the goods
were made and the person or firm tc
whom it is consigned. No carrier

PROCRESSIVES
In Congress Urge Industrial
Democracy Program

Washington, D. c. (ILNS) Repre-
sentative George J. Schneider, of
Wisconsin,, who was the candidate of
| the progressives and farmer-labor
members for speaker of the house,
called upon the major parties in
statement to meet the supreme court
issue, which, he said, was blocking
farm-labor objectives.
"The progressive and farmer-labor
group realizes that the supreme court
and its Interpretation of certain
phases of the constitution is an OBJ
stacle in the path of the realization
Of our program he said 'tThe 18th
congress will be called upon to meet
this problem of the supreme courts
Interpretation Of the constitution Will
the majority party face it? We pro-
gressives believe that it must and
should be squarely met"
Schneider said that the progressive
Representatives from Wisconsin and
the farm-labor representatives from
Minnesota stood for progressive prin-
ciples, principles which are being
increasingly accepted not only in
Wisconsin and Minnesota, but
throughout this land"
''We not only want to preserve
political democracy in the United
States; we wish to go forward; we
wish to progress to industrial demo
cracy," he continued
"On the basis Of momentous events
now shaping themselves, the 18th con-
gress will be called upon to give more
than lip service to the idea Of indus
trial democracy. Progressives demand
that the wage Garner and the salaried
worker shall have in fact, and not
merely in theory, the right and oppor-
tmity to organize and enjoy the bene-
I fits Of collective bargaining.
"The New York Times Business In
dex shows production has practically
reached the highest levels Of 1929
And vet there are anywhere from s
to 10 millions out Of work. Progress
lsives have been among the first to
point to this situation OF poverty
amidst plenty, and have been among
the most insistent that the federal
government shall make adequate and
/ full provision for the unemployed. And
we progressives will never forget the
needs and rights Of those who wish
to work and cannot find it. We go
further: We demand that those able
to work shall be given work, and some
of the most effective means for sup
plying such opportunity for work for
all, are to shorten the work week to
80 hours; to abolish child labor; and
to establish high purchasing power
to the masses Of the people of the
United States"

By GEORGE L. KNAPP

Washington, D. C. (ILNS)-The
first annual report of the National
Labor Relations Board is document
which ought to be reprinted, and put
in the hands of every American citi-
zen. Certainly organized labor should
do it's utmost to get some parts of
that report into every local in the
land.
Speaking from the record, backing
up each statement with official evil
dence, the NLRB shows the conspiracy
of economic royalists" to bring the
national labor relations act to naught,
and to retain for the corporations
powers greater than enlightened
masters in the old days tried to WELD
over their slaves Of injunction pro-
ceedings, the board says:
During its first month, and before
the board had opportunity even to
announce its procedure, an incident
occurred which was to stimulate in
junction suits against the board, and
even to provide sample brief for
those wishing to attack the act This
was publication by the national law
yers' committee of the American Lib
erty League, on September 5, 1885,
of a printed assault on the constitu-
tionality of the act.
Attempt to Undermine Law
"This document, widely publicized
and distributed throughout the coun-
try, did not present the arguments in
an impartial manner for the use of
attorneys. 1t was not review of the
cases which might be urged for and
against the statute. 1t was not brief
in any case in court, nor was it an
opinion for any client involved in any
case pending.
"Under the circumstances, it can be
regarded only as deliberate and con-
certed effort by large group of well
known lawyers to undermine public
confidence in the statute, to discourage
compliance with it, to assist attor-
neys generally in attacks on the stat
ute, and perhaps to influence the
courts.
The board then tells of the first in
junction suit, brought in the western
district of Missouri. The demands OF
the corporation asking the injunction
were utterly contrary to the proceed
ure provided in the Wagner act itself
which was modelled on the procedure
followed by the federal trade commits
sion for more than 20 years. In this
the board makes a preliminary IN
vestigation, issues a complaint for &
thorough inquiry if the case appears
to warrant it, makes its findings ane
it's orders; and then these are review
ed, if desired, by the federal circuit
court.
No Notice Given Board
In the first suit brought agains
the NLRB, the court granted tenn
porary restraining order without no
tice to the board. Then:
Immediately following the start O
this first suit, nationwide and ap
parently concerted endeavor was made
to utilize the same injunctive metho'
to prevent the board from proceeding
with the many other hearings. No
only did the attorneys filing the in
junction suits become most ingen
ious in devising all possible allega
