lied and there have been no threats
of strikes. Union organizers, how
ever, have been in the field.

SHORTS
"Honest men and k,,aues may possibly

The steel barons are singing that
old revival chorus: Who'll be the
next?"
And, speaking of quick change ar
lists, the steel companies now falling
over their feet for pay boosts and
shorter work weeks were hiring spies
and buying tear gas not two months
ago.
The 100000 men killed in the Span
ish civil war-to date-are victims of
fascism. That war is revolt of the
privileged classes of Spain against
democratic government elected by
popular vote. Keep that in mind
when some pompous jackass talks
about the turbulent populace."
Judge Gary used to prove in long

signs of coming to the S-hour day
