Automobiles Among
Steel Workers

Anyone who believes that the average
American working man is a downtrodden,
poverty stricken wretch who is oppressed
by his employer and denied all the mate
rial pleasures of life by stingyi pay
envelope each week should take a look
at the findings of a recent survey among
representative steel workers.
The American Iron and Steel Institute
made a careful search in steel plants of
Ohio, Pennsylvania and West Virginia.
and found that three out of four steel
workers own automobiles.
If you peter exact figures, it was shown
that the group of American steel work.
ers has one automobile for each 5.3 per-
sons. That includes not only the actual
working men, but their familes-wives,
children and other dependents. The ma
tional average for the United States is
little better. 1t povides one car for every
5.S persons.
Consider these figures in contrast to
those in other countries, and you will
wonder why there is anyone in this ma
tiOn who wants to replace our own social
and economic system with the system
used in some other country In France,
there is one car for every 19 persons. In
Germany, there are 49 persons for every
auto, and in England there are 20 persons
for each car.
In our own steel industry, the workers
alone-of whom we have heard it said
very recently that they are the victims
of economic tyranny-have one car for
every five persons.
The automobile is used not for itself
alone, but as barometer. Where there
are automobiles, there are radios, refrig-
orators and other modern conveniences.
Any group which can afford these things
is not utterly downtrodden .-'.=..
1t will be long time before we, as
sensible people, are willing to trade
places with the people of another hs- :
tion.

ARTHUR CAYLOR IN BEHIND THE NEWS"
---.- = - In San Francisco News ;. ~


The Democratic leaders. who have been boost
ing an advisory convention to assure some pre-
primary harmony are being bothered no end by
other Democratic leaders who would like to
know how it can be done
In the first place, such a convention would
have to be a big ratification meeting at which
a slate would be swallowed whole amid cheering
to- the -echo. Otherwise it would naturally be
most disastrous. Flow Gently Sweet Donny-
brook" is the slogan of their necessity
So picking the right kind OF delegates-ever
ready to vote at the party's calls not SO easy
as shooting fish with squirt gun and the re-
suits are likely to be even less efficacious.
For instance suppose the McAdooS decide to
make delegates of the county committeeman.
These gentlemen are supposed to understand
organization and to appreciate the beauty and
civic virtue involved in capturing the state ad-
ministration and its jobs.
But that basis, San Mateo and Santa
Clara counties could get together and out-vote
San Francisco County. The representation of
Los Angeles county doubtless would be far
under its proportion of the vote that the outcry
of the Los Angelenos could be heard on Finsler's
comet.
However, the Democratic organization has
to do something. The boys are longer sure
they can beat Governor Merriam with any
squirt sufficiently vocal to shout I'm for Roose-
velt" The fact is that some of the chieftains
will say privately that-unleSs they can find
one outstanding candidate to replace their
present flock of minnows-Governor Merriam
will have the best chance of reelection enjoyed
by any governor since Hiram Johnson. Since
Senator Johnson was the last governor to be
reelected that's saying plenty.

No Compliment
For Kentucky

A score of supposedly normal persons,
this time in Kentucky, have again given
humanity cause to wonder if human ma.
ture is so far removed from the brute
world, after all. They accomplished
this dubious feat by showering the three
Carr brothers, assassins of another man,
with congratulations for their cowardly
act. - tt
The murdered man was killed because
the Carr brothers believed he had, in
turn, murdered their sister. Doubtless
they had cause for anger. But it is hard
to Justify their crime on that or any
other basis. The law exists to punish
murderers 1t was drawn up for, the
specific purpose of removing man from
barbarism. When any man or group of
men attempt to take unto themselves
the prerogative that should be that of
the law alone, they put themselves in
the classification of barbarians.
The Carr brothers were beyond the
pale of the law in their assassination of
a man who was awaiting judicial disposi-
tion of his case. Those who condoned
the action of the brothers showed them
selves in sympathy not with organized
society, but with disorganized system
which would be far more in keeping with
the times when men grew tails and lived
in trees.
Kentucky should not be proud of the
action of its citizens in condoning and
even applauding the murder of one of
their group by three others, regardless
of the reasons.

Imperial Valley press., 1937-09-24

No one who has the interests of
organized labor at heart can fail
to hope devoutly that the rival
factions in the field of labor will
patch up their guerilla war with
each other before the cause which
they both represent is irreparably
damaged.
Already the ordinary citizen is
getting more than a little tired of
hearing about the bitter fight be-
ween CLIO. and AT. of l.. And
when that fight begins to hit him
where he lives-as it is starting
to do on a wholesale basis here and
there-he is apt to express his
irritation in a way that organized
labor will find extremely incon-
venient.
A standout example Of this sort
of thing is now in evidence on the
Pacific coast.
The Pacific Coast Transfers
Union, militant A. F.. of L. outfit,
is waging a last-ditch war with
the CLOS esually militant long
shoremen and Warehousemen. The
row started when the Longshore-
mems Union organized the previ-
ously unorganized warehousemen.
Immediately the Teamsters' Union
claimed jurisdiction over these new
recruits, and the war began.
Now a war between two rival
unions is not a mere matter OF
speeches, proselyting and argu-
mentative statements. 1t is fought
with the most effective weapons
available-and direct-action people
like teamsters and longshoremen
can think of some pretty effective
ones when they put their minds
ON it.
So today we find the Transfers

Bruce Cation Says:
-- Average Citizen Pays as Unions Squabble

Union clamping an embargo on
San Francisco Bay ports and re-
fusing to move cargoes unloaded
by Longshoremen's Union. A ship
comes in and docks The longshore-
men promptly unload it, Buick
cept for perishables, government
orders, ship stores, passengers
baggage and mail-the unloaded
freight remains on the wharf. The
teamsters will not move a pound
of it, neither will they take any
export eargoes down to the docks
where it can be loaded.
In retaliation, the longshoremen
threaten to start moving some of
this freight themselves. If they do,
say the teamsters. the embargo
will be extended all up and down
the coast; it may even spread TO
Atlantic coast ports.
Consider, now, where this puts
the innocent bystander. Let us sup
pose that you are San Francisco
business man abliged to import
merchandise by water. You may
have the best will in the world
toward organized labor. You may
be scrupulous about dealing with
the unions in your own shop.
But this fight leaves you ham,
strung. You are in as bad a fix as
you would be if you yourself were
fighting labor. You have not the
faintest interest in the quarrel
yet you are paying for the war.
This sort of thing does labor in
calculable damage If it goes on
long enough, it is almost certain to
start a public reaction that will
leave labor back where it was in
the mid-tWenties, with all the great
gains of recent years Cancelled.
