SOMETHING WRONG WITH
THE NATIONAL OUTLOOK

1here is something structurally wrong
with the average American outlook on
life when relief recipients can Justify in
their own consciences such a sit-down
strike as that begun in San Diego this
week IN protest against a relief camp for
unmarried indigents.
Perhaps the trouble arises from the
high standard of living social service
workers have set for relief clients, espe-
cially in California. In this light it was
interesting TO note that state relief Off
clals, discussing the increasing burden
California must bear because of migra-
tion of mid-western iobless across our
borders, commented that California pays
higher average dole than any other
state. No wonder they all flock here
II there were more relief camps such
as that established by the San Diego
SKA officials, We are inclined to believe
that more relief clients would go out
after jobs in private industry. Relief,
like prison, should be unattractive To
the normal person it is; but there are
those whose moral fibre has been eaten
away by a series of rebuffS to the extent
they would be glad to live the rest of
their lives at public expense. AS long
as relief is attractive these latter will
never be cured.
Il Uc lodi DlGSO SlIIhtIS. protesting De
cause the unmarried among their num-
Der have been sent to a camp in San
BernardinO, represent those who not
only are willing to accept relief forever
more, but have come TO believe that the
best is none too good. They want relief.
but they want it where they want it, and
when they want it. Otherwise, they feel
they are imposed upon.
They do not stop to think that their
presence on the relief rolls imposes on
the man who has a job in private in
dustry, and who fOots the bill by paying
his taxes.
1t is no bed of roses, we know, being
out of job. Neither is it any bed of
roses holding down a job and at the
same time supporting somebody else who
hasn't one. That is why it is hard to
work up sympathy for the man who
wants relief-but wants it on his own
terms.

UNFAIR TO
UNORGANIzED LABOR

There is grin in the story. about pick
cts picketing pickets at the Brawley
standby plant, but there is a grain of
very serious common sense in the signs
the picket-picketing pickets carry:
These pickets are unfair to unorgan-
lied labor"
1t may be the downfall of organized
labor as at present conceived that it is
unfair to unOrganized labor. The high
goal of labor organization is a better liv-
ing standard for all working men. 1t is
a goal with which nobody can quarrel
1t should be the thing on which laborers
and employers alike agree. The goal will
never be reached as long as labor itself
discriminates against labor.
JurisdictiOnal disputes, trouble be-
tween union and non-uniOn laborers, and
arguments within the framework of one
labor union do more to discourage the
cause of labor organization than any
amount of employer interference could.
Labor will not reach its high tide of or
ganization until that organization is di-
rected toward improving the status of
all laborers-not of just a small group
among the thousands of working men.
When labor organization attempts to
obtain the discharge Of a man because
he is not member Of its group, it is
working against its own ends. 1t is attack
ing mountain with pen knife

ELLIOTT VOTE TO BRING
WAGE Law ON FLOOR
tlSalia TimeS-Delta)

" lSdlld 1lmeS-Delta)
Whatever his final vote will be on the
wages and hour law, which in our opin-
ion has fatal defects because of the vary
ing standards of wages and hours in
the various states that cannot be regi-
mented without doing incalculable harm
both to labor and industry, we believe
that Congressman Elliott took the right
action in voting to bring the measure
out of committee where it had been bot
tied up. The representatives of the peO-
pie have right to vote on measures of
this nature which are matters of nation
al concern. AS a state California should
not be seriously injured by the establish
ment of minimum wages and hours. Our
standard is so much higher than in most
states that we should benefit by such
an enactment. But one state cannot pros
per fundamentally from legislation that
is harmful in other states.

UNION RESPONSIBILITY

TCTITIaTIdH oCItICe MOnltOfJ
Incorporation of labor unions or some
other method by which worker RESPONSE
bility can be established is being in
creasingly demanded in America today
Likewise, a fear has grown up that en-
ployers may have no redress if the Ma
tional Labor Relations Board rules
against them. Some reinsurance on both
points is contained in the decision of
the circuit court of appeals at Chicago,
overturning a Labor Board ruling. The
court holds that workers who struck in
violation of a contract requiring arbitra
tion forfeited their positions as employees
and their rights to reinstatement. If the
courts follow this rule, unions will find
that under the law even as it now stands
they must honor responsibilities if they
are to enjoy rights,

YOUTH AND DEATH
AT THE WHEEL
Alameda IimeS-Star)

kAldncua llmeS-Star)
Automobile drivers of high school age
are involved in ten times as many fatal
accidents, per miles driven, as the driver
Of 45 to 30 years, according to an analysis
Of road accidents published today by
The American Maazine.
Furthermore, the high school record
has been getting worse, the magazine
states. IN the last IL years there has
been % per cent decrease in traffic
deaths Of children five to nine years
old, and only a slight increase in those
10 to ii. That is, the safety campaigns
to teach children to watch out for them
selves in the streets are having their eff
feet.
But in the ages 15 to 10. the high
school age, there has been in this same
period an increase of 130 per cent in
traffic deaths. The reason is obvious.
Fifteen Is about the age when children
begin to drive.
Pointing out that this age of greatest
danger is also the best age for teaching
motorcar operation, the writer urges
wide extension of such work as that now
being done by Amos Neyhart, former
professor of industrial management at
Pennsylvania state college, who is head
ing up nation program for training
high school students to drive
Nearly 200 high schools are now using
this plan of instruction. the article states,
and this summer 60 to 20 colleges will
have courses for high school teachers
i'll the technique of teaching automobile
operation.
ultimately" it predicts, "a motorcar
for teaching driving, or a fleet of such
ears, will be as much recognized part
Of the equipment Of any progressive high
school as is today the kitchen equipment
in the domestic science course or the
tools in the manual training shop, and
a driving course will be required before
graduation from a public high school,"

Novels. and others. are accepted as
classics by the most discerning
critics of the age.
Walter Scott contracted a fever
in infancy which left him lame, A
lameneSs from which he never en-
tirelv recovered.
After reachins the pinnacle OF
success and being created Baronet,
he began a book which he had
locked forward to writing all his life,
a biography OF Napoleon He had
gone into the publishing business
himself by this time. The publish
ing business collapsed and left him
in utter financial ruin.
Although an Ole man by now,
he said I will start all over again.
l will not accept defeat
Just then his wife died and he
despaired in MS grief
He endured, aside from mental
pain, at this time. great physical
suffering. But he labored unceas-
ingly, and declining a government
pension. finisfOI two novels.
Robert LOUIS Stevenson had an
illness which affected his eyesight
and left hin. greatly weakened. Once
he la tn@ weeks in a dark room
with his right hand tied to his
side to prevent hemorrhages. With
his left hand, and with barely
enough light to see, he wrote some
of the verses for his Child's Gar
den. While he lay. unable to move,
and scarcely able to breathe, he
composed The Requiem. But his
courage and his sense of humor
remained with him. He wrote to a
friend: I am too blind to read,
hence no reading; 1 am too week
TO walk, hence no walking; not
allowed to speak, hence no talking;
but the great simplification has yet
to be named; for if this goes on,
I shall soon have nothing to eat
and hence there will be no eating.
But with all his suffering and
poverty he said My wife has been
a great success"
Sir James Barrie, who died last
year. let to Elizabeth Bergner. dim
inutive actress, the sum of $4,000.
They were not related, they were
not even old friends; Barrie owed
Miss Bergner nothing. Then why?
Well, Barrie wrote a play in his
later years - when plays weren't
coming to him as readily as in the
days of Peter Pan" and What
Every Woman Knows. He wrote
The Boy David, with Elizabeth in
mind. Elizabeth loved it; but the
public did not. 1t ran only month
in London. That hurt Barrie But
Miss Bergner stood Loyalty by the
play, and Barrie appreciated her
loyalty to the extent of $4,000
upon his death.

Bruce Cation Says
- The Lion Assumes a New Expression

diplomatic relations with Great
Britain and perkily reminding
London that the British war debt
tn the United States remains in
default.
This is the sort of thing that
would have been inconceivable a
few years ago. Kipling's lesser
breeds without the law was meant
TO include practically everyone
outside the British empire, but
most of all it referred to people
like MeXicans. Kipling must be
turning over in his grave at the
very thought of Mexico telling
England where to head in.
Now all of this adds up to
something 1t is simply the logical
result of the kind of foreign po
licies the Baldwin and Chamber
lain governments have been purSu-
ing in recent years, and while
those policies are not any parti-
cular business of ours, the results
which they lead to are we'll worth
our study.
In the last few years the world
has seen the emergencc of a new
kind of nation: the braggart-in
arms, as you might call it, which
openly proclaims its contempt for
the opinion of the rest of the
world, takes what it wants when
ever it feels strong enough to do
SO, and scoffs loudly at the mere
suggestion that the world make a
sincere effort to settle its differ
enceS peacefully.
The present British government
seems to have decided to play ball
with that kind of nation; to con
done seizures of Ethiopia and
Austria, violations of treaties, and
menaces directed at peaceful ma
tionS.
BY so doing, it has simply invit-
ed other nations tG act the same
way-to disregard protests and try
any course of action that they
think they can get away with.
Apparently the lesson was not
lost in Mexico.

Famous Sayings

If the Fates have a sense of hu-
NOR, they must be indulging in a
quiet chuckle these days over the
queer things that are happening
to the Well-knoWn British lion.
Time was when this lion barred
his teeth and claws on the Slight
est provocation, and had a groWl
that sent lesser folk scurrying to
cover at its first rumble. But that,
apparently. was before the real.
istic" foreign policy of the present
British government was adopted.
Under this policy the idea seems
to be to go to practically any
lengths to conciliate anybody who
acts tough. 1t is, indeed, carried
so far that it would be positively
scriptural in its nthe-other-
cheek manner, if it were not being
accompanied by the most prodigi-
Gus armament expenditures ever
heard of.

Shipping Lobby
NnpdI ExDdnSiOR


WASHINGTON.-The shipbuild-
ing and shipoperating industries
have had the largest aggregation
of lobbyists in Washington that has
appeared during their long history
of successful lobbying. Not only
have all the cid familiar faces been
present: many new ones were re-
cruited:
Reasons: l. The 156,00000O
naval expansion program, recently
passed
2. The 1896 Merchant Marine Act
designed to stimulate a .250000,000
construction program and stabilize
maritime labor conditions.
The fight still goes on TO per-
suade Roosevelt and Congress to
lift the embargo on arms in Spain.
But it has been virtually a lost
cause since Roosevelt and Secretary
Hull decided to tell the Senate For
eign Relations Committee to lay off.
Hull formally warned that re-
moval of the embargo might en-
danger peace. Administration in
siders privately confess that the
real reason the White House hasn't
acted favorably is a fear of losing
the votes of many American
Catholics.
Some leaders in the movement
think they can stir up sufficient
countcr-prcssure from Protestant
groups. They probably can't.
Harry Slattery. who celebrated
his appointment as underSecretary
Of Interior by going to the hospital
for a major operation, is soft
spoken, smiling, baShful man who
nevertheless is as popular and wide
~ respected as any official in Wash
ingtOn
More than 30 years ago Slattery
was helping Theodore Roosevelt un-
cover corruption and fight for con-
servation. T. r. called him the
smiling Irish rebel from South
Carolina" In the Taft admins
tration he was leading figure in
the Ballinger expose. He was per-
sonal assistant to Secretary of the
Interior Lane in the Wilson ad-
mlnlStration.
1t was Slattery who precipitated
the Teapot Dome scandal when he
discovered naval oil reserves had
been transferred to Secretary Falls
control and tipped off Senator old
Bob LaFollette.
He was driving force behind
campaigns for the federal power
act and for preservation of Muscle
Shoals and Boulder Dam for the
public. He has been closely aSso-
ciated with Senator George w.
Norris and for five years, as per-
sonal assistant to Secretary Ickes,
has helped maintain honesty in
PWA and the Interior Department.
Say anything except that I'm
unmarried" Slattery told Interiors 5
publicity man who was writing up
his appointment. Or they'll think
I'm an eligible bachelor"
