wPA WORKERS MAKE DEMANDS

Every once in while the news comes
from metropolitan areas of WPA workers
and other benefieiaries of governmental
assistance organizing to resist what are
termed unfair policies.
We have all the sympathy in the
world for persons who have had to de-
pend upon the Federal government for a
chance to work but we have 10 sympathy
whatever with their assumption that what
the government began as a relief effort
must be operated under conditions and
upon terms outlined by the beneficiaries
of the undertaking.
When the government went into the
business of relief" it was feared by
many observers that it would have diff
ficulty in terminating the experiment as
economic conditions improved. This, it
seems. will be the case, but there is no
basis for believing that relief prospects
should be permanent in the United States

UNFoRTIFIED

People are inclined to take things for
granted. For that reason few citizens of
Key West ever give thought to the
boundary between this country and
Canada, where. for hundred and twenty
years. there has been no Notifications
This. whether we realize it or not, is
an excellent example to the rest of the
world .gaIt speaks well for Canadians and
Americans, for the smaller as well as the
larger nation 1t evidences, conclusively,
the pacific spirit that dominates their peo-
pie and is just cause for congratulations in
a world that has gone mad with armament
and the preparation for warfore.

THE DUKES WEDDING

The wedding of the Duke of Wind
sor, late King of England, and Mrs. Wallis
Warfield, late of the United States, is at
tracing the attention of millions of peo-
pie, with the usual foolish and silly stories
being retailed around the world.
The abdication of Edward was his
own business entirely, in our opinion, and
something of a token of sincerity in re-
gard to his love for the charming lady who
has divorced two husbands. The marriage
is. in our eyes, at least, something of a
character certificate for the lady who has
been much talked about by people who
knew nothing of her and her affairs,
The British government seems de-
termined that the late King shall receive
no official recognition. Even the church
of his land seems equally determined that
the union shall not receive benefit of
clergy. Together these attitudes had won
much sympathy for the Duke in the past
few weeks and it is to be hoped that he
and his bride viii be allowed to live in
peace by those who like to meddle in the
business of other people.

dustrial efficiency The law is an ex-
preston Of s0cialIst-commanist class
conflict. and IS a notable example OF
narrow. bitter partisan class legisla-
ton. SUCH legislation IS Of European
clzsS-hatred origin. and has no proper
place under the American ConStitu-
ton.
The Wagner Law IS based on the
quack economic theory that the en-
Ployer is the natural enemy Of his
employees. and cant be trusted 70 deal
with them fairly On the false as
sumption that the employer IS always
seeking opportunities to cheat his
employees. and miSlead them TO their
own injury and his gain, the en-
pIoyer under this law is practically
branded as an enemy Of his employees.
and IS treated as such IN all his rela-
tons with his associates in business
The employer IS prohibited from
forming any sort Of organization of
his employees that he may be con-
ysn1cd IS L. their beS. interest, as
vel as in the interest Of the success
Of the business. He IS prohibited from
taxing any part in any organization
that the employees may form. even in
an advisory capaeity. He IS regarded
b. the law as SO dangerous to the
welfare Of these who work with him.
that he IS not even permitted TO an
Sxer the questions Of his employees

TIE law robs the employer Of the
constitutional rign.s Of freedom Of

be. freedom Of religion. He IS not per-

On the other hand. communists. So

under this law 10 promote any kind

may hold up the employer as the
arch enemy OF those who work for

regarded by this law as the friend Of
the employees. and as public bsae-
factor. Il is only the employer (who
gives an opportunity to employees TO
earn living for themselves and their
famiiiesl that Is regards as their
dangerous enemy. The law IS really .
legislative monstr0Sity.
Under constitutional. industrial
freedom, the interests Of employers
and employees are not antagonistic
but mutual. Wages are fixed by natu-
raj forces beyond the control Of
employers Employers must pay the
market price for labor. Just as they
must pay the market price for cotton.
wheat and other raw material Com
petition is so intense in business to-
day that employers cannot afford to
permit their competitors to pay less
than the market price for their labor
It is not bargaining power. but the
markets that TX legitimate wage.
Efficiency and success IN any busi-
ness today are largely dependent on
the spirik Of the workers The BUSH
ness that gives the best service TO the
public. and contributes most to gen.
eral welfare. as rule, IS the busi-
ness that is successful in developing
goodwill and friendliness between
the employer and the employees.
Every encouragement possible
should be given TO employers who
seek 10 develop the spirit Of goodwill
and friendliness through organiza-
ton and in every other way. The
Wagner Law functions in the oppo-
site direction. It engenders strife and
isl-.xiH between those who should be
bound IN friendship and mutual aid,
and in the end viii be disastrous both
to industrial progress and general
welfare. In the interest Of general
welfare, i should be repudiated as
quickly as possible.

OF brought things to climax l was
puzzled beWildered and angry. I
wrote down the names and ad-
dresses of the guests and told
them to go home Young Hill immedi-
ately got to his feet, gulped what was
remalndlng Of a new glass of brandy
and staggered toward the front hall
door, He was a comlcal sight drunken
now than before. Laughing, the crowd
followed. In the hall butler fetched
young Hills coat, but he waved it
erandly aside and picked up one of
Mrs. Van Rochten's wraps. Ridiculously
ne wound the thing about his head,
turned and leered at us. The guests
reared al the absurd sight. A picture
OF nm paradlng up Fifth avenue with
that ridiculous thing wound about his
! mead, brought a smile even to nv lips
And then l happened to notice the
butter that Hill had slapped to one side
lying on the floor, and l sobered.
TT CAME to me abruptly, The only
possible way those emeralds could
laVe been Smuggled from that room
was brought to mind by sight of the
butler. The butler I discovered, had
been all but knocked unconscious
And 1t suddenly occurred to me that
no man as drunk as young Hill seemed
to be could have knocked big
Strapping fellow like that butler into
nSenSlblllty. And by the same token.
II Hill wasn't drunk he certainly
wouldn't wind a thing like a woman's
wrap about his head in an effort to
appear silly
Why, then, had he done it? The
answer was simple. He wanted to get
OUTSIDE with that wrap. Again why?
And again a simple answer. He had
somehow hidden the emerals in the
wrap after Snatchjng them from Mrs.
Van Rochten's neck. There was the
answer to the whole mystery,
Hill and l reached the door at the
same time. He had started to run,
but l reached out, and fortunately
my hands landed on the wrap. He
turned Snarling, and struck out at me
but l vas no easy victim like the
butler. 1 caught his wrist, bent it
sharply backward, and young Sam
Hlll was suddenly lying on the side
walk with me atop him, shouting to
the other officers"
The oldest inspector laughed and
Knocked out his pipe. He chuckled
and got to his feet. The uncanny,"
ne said, is always the obvious"
