NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
ESTABLISHING STRIKERS RIGHTS

From the Greenville News comes the pertinent
suggestion that should give more serious thought
to British labor laws under which labor organiza-
tons are placed under greater restrictions and
greater legal responsibility to maintain economic
peace than appears to be the case in the United
States Prospects are good for broadening of labor
controversies and strikes as a result of pickup in
business. so the nation might as well determine
without delay what strikers rights shall be.

STILL. TURNING

A few days ago the Daily News made reference
in these columns to the soniersaut executed by
Arizona's Senator Henry T. Ashurst who in the
course of a fortnight shifted from sharp critic of
circumscribed or controlled supreme court to the
senate's judiciary committee, of President Roose-
vet's proposal of that very thing,
In the wake of that clash of views or complete
reversal of opinion, the searchers of the records
have found it virtually impossible to leave the
Arizona honorable and his passing remarks, as they
relate to the political pressure of the present alone
Come now the discovery that Senator Ashurst, i'm

"And among the unjust criticisms which have

Roosevelt was that he intended at some time--no'
