has said. 1T is not yet established
whether the sit-down strike is legal"
Mr.. Homer Martin, leading the De-
troit sit-down, knows perfectly well
| it isn't. He doesn't 60 in for any
chi-chi. The issue isn't legality but
whether the workers have right to
a better standard Of living and i'm
proved conditions" Anyhow, there
isn't an argument The Michigan
courts have ruled on the question,
and the Governor Of Michigan, q
New Deal Governor, has supported
their decision, verbally, at least. The
strikes are not legal. Since then
5000 workers have refused to bulge,
warning the Governor and through
him the State, that attempts to en-
force the law will be resisted with
violence
Situation Extremely Critical.
Apparently there is no way to eWct
5000 men by force without bloodshed.
Public feeling in Michigan is inflamed.
There is not question that il, to-
morrow. vigilante leader should arise
| there, thousands of outraged citizens
would follow him, prepared to enforce
the law themselves if the Government
hesitates to do so. Nor is there any
question that working class slaughter
| would hideously inflame working class
feelings and increase their violence.
No prospect could be worse. And the
alternatives are three: That industries
should yield under force majeure;
that the workers should yield; or that
new note of reason and new outline
Of policy should be introduced by the
only man who, under all the circum-
stances, can do it.
Unfortunately there is no indication
from the history of the last month
that the first alternative would in any
way contribute to social peace. General
Motors yielded; United States Steel
yielded, and the response was . new
wave of sit-doWns The moral which
the workers drew was that their tech
nique works. Unless it is halted it will
certainly spread
There is not the slightest question
in my mind what the outcome in the
long run of general epidemic Of
sit-down strikes will be. The result
will either be the suppression of labor
see Italy; or the redefining Of the
powers OF labor, and the drastic limi-
tation OF the power to make any kind
OF strikes-see England. And what
might Lie In between is not pleasant
to contemplate. For the temper Of
this country is not that OF England.
We have tradition of violence, par
ticularly in labor matters.

AFFECT the majority whereby decisions
may be made on pending cases.
Age Limit Also Flexible,

Congress heretofore has based It's
increases Of the size of the court on
the circumstance that the business
OF the court required it. This has
been the plain implication back OF
congressional use of the power to
flx the size Of the court. But in Mr..
Roosevelt's plan the proposed statute
does not say that whenever the num-
Der of cases shall attain q certain
height or when 1t shall fall to = Ger
tain number, the size OF the court
shall be changed contingency plain
ly related to the idea OF regulating
the number Of justices to fit the num-
Der Of cases before 1t. On the con-
trary, the proposal calls for addi-
tional justices only when justices
already on the bench shall have served
10 years or when they shall have
reached the age of 10. But they may
incidentally be appointed at 50 and
If they have not been on the bench
previously they may serve until they
are 79 before an additional justice
can be appointed alongside OF them.
So the size of the court comes back
to the question Of the length of
service OF sitting judges, and tenure
OF office for Federal judges is held
not to be within the power of Congress
to legislate upon. 1t would be as
plausible If Congress insisted on say
ing that additional justices shall be
appointed whenever the sitting men,
bers construe the commerce clause
IN manner adverse to the will OF
Congress. Broadly speaking, the idea
Of trying to get around the spirit of
the Constitution was rejected in most
forceful language by Chief Justice
John Marshall, who said:

be within the scope of the Constitu-
ton, and all means which are appro-
pirate, which are plainly adapted to

realistic. Legal or not, the striking
workers are In a strong position, from
which they will hardly be expected
voluntarily to retreat. There remains
only a third alternative: that labor
should relinquish an illegal method,
while retaining every reasonable OBJ
1ective, and equipped with the instru-
ments for seeking it. The reasonable
objecuves can be somewhat defined.
They must be compatible with the
er1clent functioning of the capitalist
system, however modified, and COM
patible with the welfare of the general
public-which Is not always and at
all points synonymous with the exclu-
sive interests OF the organized workers.
They must be compatible with the
capitalist system II this Government
is to support them or encourage them,
for the President Is pledged to the
maintenance Of that system, by re-
peated and clear avoWak.
The Wagner labor relations act is
supposed to define those objectives OF
labor that Government is prepared to
sponsor. But the events of the last
weeks have demonstrated, first, that it
doesn't, and second, that labor or
capital will only invoke it If they think
that Its operation will work out in
their interests. In the General Motors
strike Mr.. Martin, representing the
workers, never said a word about
majority rule, because he knew per-
fectly well that his union did not have
majority. In the Chrysler strike,
where the union apparently does have
majority, Mr.. Chrysler Is, apparently.
unwilling to submit to a plebiscite of
the workers, and Mr. Martin insists on
it.
But this needs to be said: II the
Wagner labor relations act were upheld
by the Supreme Court tomorrow. its
weaknesses, antiquities, lack of def
milton and above all, it's failure to
establish clear procedures, are such
that 1t would continue to be inter-
preted one way by the employers and
another way by the strikers, and used
or neglected precisely as it happened
to f1t the interests of either group.
1t is said that the President Is
thinking of calling an international
disarmament conference. We beg him
to call national economic disarma-
ment conference, and call it right now,
specifically of Mr.. Lewis and Mr..
Chrysler, and outside Michigan, in an
atmosphere not charged with violence.
And further, a conference OF the lead
ers OF industry and of labor, who must
together work out a program accept
able to both, if We are to be governed
by reason instead Of force.

Able and Frank Howe were among the
riders, and Charles Shufeit, later
drowned, was on his first Job with a
cattle outfit. In all there we're about
20 riders on the roundup.
40 Horses Missing
I 1t had been raining during the night
and early in the morning of June /,
/ the nighthawk reported TO Jaycox that
about 40 head Of horses had gotten
away during the night and were still
missing. Jaycox sent several of the
cowboys out to gather the horses, the
rest of the men going about the duties
Of rounding up cattle for branding.
Jaycox rode to the top Of hill and
after looking around the country dis
covered the missing horses coming
toward camp at breakneck speed. He
shouted that they were not being driven
by a man and started toward them
on the lope. About the same time the
men who had been sent to find the
horses approached and discovered that
huge brown bear was numbering along
behind the horses at a remarkable
speed.
Shufelt. astride a big bronc, got in
close to the bear who took a Swipe at
his horse and pulled out a paWfh Of
its tail. The frightened bronze Stam-

but every time they succeeded in get |

giving Howe q chance to get over its

The frightened horses held the fur

crowd. Campbell roasted piece of the
meat, which wasn't particularly en-
1oyed. Wallace Coburn got the hide
and a short time later related the
story to his friend Charles Russell
who was inspired to paint the picture.
Campbell says that every detail of
the incident is brought out in the
