NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
CONSEQUENCES OF INDIFFERENCE

The results of governmental indifference or
downright inertia where the st-down is invoked
have been graphically and even tragicay portrayed
in manifestations of violence at the Pennsylvania
plant of the Hershey Chocolate corporations an in
dustry, how ironically it seems, set in the center
of what its founder foresaw as model village.
When sit-down strikes took over the plant a
week ago. efforts to Dust them or to get the duly
constituted authorities to take decisive action were
in vain. Pennsylvania under the Earle administra-
ton is particularly friendly to labor, you'll recall,
as the miners and steel workers constitute vote
to which the present state government is greatly
beholden. But that situation is only by way Of
background; what we are interested in is the Her
shey strike and the manner in which it finally
handled.
As the plant shutdown continued with no ind-
cations of early resumption of activity, the stua-
ton became increasingly serious for farmers of
the surrounding territory. Their livelihood came
from the sale of milk the Hershey interests, APP
proximately 100000 pounds of it day. Their
perishable product spelling on their hands and
their. pocketbookS were suffering accordingly. At
last the farmers, augmented say press dispatches,
by loyal workers." took matters into their own
hands, invaded the chocolate plant and drove the
sit-downers out with clubs and any other weapons
available Several scores injured, some of the
casualties being of very serious nature
The failure of government to meet its response
bitv is obvious If the Sit-downers were in the
wrong, they should have been handled by due pro-
cess of law If they were right, they should have
been protected against their clubbrandshing ejec-
tors. 1t is challenging sorry spectacle to see two
groups battling in any such fashion, the outcome
of the issue left to might, and the politically in
spred authorities hanging around the edges to see
which side offers the best bet for retention of their
offices.
What more convincing evidence does the country
wish of the consequences of governmental alliance

DEFENDERS OF THE LAW

If the federal government has adopted policy
of weakened acquieseence in tactics currently
employed by labor agitators, the same cannot De
said of those state executives who are following
the lead of Governor Hoffman, of New Jersey, in
connection with the sit-down strikes.
Governor Clyde r. ,Hoey, of North Carolina is
the latest official to take strong position IN the
most ISSUE Shutdown strikes" he flatly declares
care unlawful and will not be tolerated IN North
Carolina" The statement was made on the eve OF
Clio drive among the states textile mills
In comparison with this gubernatorial Wgor,
Secretary Perkins bland pronouncement that there
may be developing a new conception OF property
rights looms as decidedly puerile bit OF half
baked Interpretation.
If and when America gets rid of all Communs-
tic thrusts at the human side of property owner
ship the credit for the accomplishment will go to
the governors, judges and other public officials who
have had the courage to uphold lawful procedure.

THREAT TO OIL MENAcEs ALL TEXANS

If activities of the imported labor organizers
now at work in the oil fields of Texas were to re-
suit in serious disturbances in the petroleum IN
dustry, hardly person in the entire state could
remain unaffected For Texas's petroleum industry
has ramifcations extending into every nook and
corner of the State, including those counties and
sections in which there is no actual production Oh
OIL In addition to the estimated 100000 Texans
who are dependent either directly or indirectly,
upon the oil industry for their ivellhoods, thou
sands of others are engaged in businesses that
would be instantly and vitality affected by the cur
tailment of oil production. And when one cohsio-
ers that the effect these businesses inevitably
would extend itself into many other lines of en-
deavor, some idea is gained of the uneXaggerated
truth of the statement that serious disturbances IN
the oil industry would concern virtually everybody
living in Texas.
1t is highly probable, to be sure that any such
disturbances would be of short duration, for | do
not think there is any doubt that public opinion IN
Texas would be aroused to such an extent that
the persons responsible for the situation quickly.
would recognize the wisdom of trying to undo
what they had done. But a very great deal OF
harm could be done to the oil industry in a short
time A blow at the pipe lines, for example, woulo
upset the entire industry and that at once For if
