Pacheco won the first two rounds
of the semi, which proved to be the
only good fight of the evening, as
he pegged Soose with a left Jab

smash.
Pacheco's handler, enthused by
the success of Pachecos right, when
it followed series of Jabs, altered

NEW UNION FUNCTION

n the Far Labor Standards Act comes into ef-
Afect, labor stipulations will be Incorporated in
Ito standards of fair competition that will prevent
industries from competing with each other for
profits wrung out of the miseries of long hours
and low wages. Competition will be forced to the
plane of management and production economies to
get low-cost articles or service. For Labor, min
mum wage and maximum hour standards mean
the necessity for taking of it's own interests.
The first step is union organization.
Wage and hour standards will be recommend
ed by industry committees appointed by the Ad-
mnstrator of the Act. Labor will be represented
on these committees. Unless Labor is organized,
the Administration cannot find representatives,
and individuals attempting to perform the func-
ton will not have facts on the whole industry or
personal knowledge of the industry wide labor
standards. Organization is necessary for the pro-
lection of wage-earners in the field of minimum
fair labor standards as well as for the advance
ment of standards for services above the minimum
through collective bargaining. Fair minimum STAN
dards build foundation upon which collective bar
gaining will raise standards for those above en-
trance groups-for the workers with skill and ex-
perence. AS higher standards are determined, the
minimum can be raised. The effect of gains in
either field will be reciprocal
The union will be necessary to workers for
the enforcement of standards equally as much as
for their determination. Workers on the Job know
conditions better than any inspecting force. But
workers need the union channel for effective
functioning in enforcement. The union can lift
the issue from it's personal setting and insist up
on enforcement of law.
Fundamentally it devolves upon the union to
wipe out artificial regional dfferentials Only the
nsistence of workers can eliminate this element
i'm unfair competition within an industry Only
the union can adequately advance Labor's inter-
ests which are identified with social progress for
the Nation.

CALL OFF THE WAGE CUT!

GALWAY labor has shown the statesman
L ship which the country has grown to expect
from it, 1t is perfectly willing to help form plan
ito revive the railroads-but it cannot do this while
lit is fighting wage cut. The first thing for rail
road management-or rather, the financial pow
ers which control railroad management-to do is
to call off the wage cut
There is bitter need for craftsmanship in the
railroad situation; and so far, no financer has
furnished an atom of it. They have refused so
far to call off the wage cut. Higher rates and low
Ter wages are all they seem to know. Higher rates,
which will drive still more traffic to the trucks
lower wages, which will lessen the buying power
(which is far too small already.
No permanent good can be done to the rail
roads until their capitalization is cleaned up From
the time when the Union Pacific issued $94 900, 600
of bonds to build road which a Congressional
committee found to cost about $4,000, 900 to the
time almost yesterday when the big roads spent
hundreds of millions buying lesser roads that
weren't even paying their way, railroad finance has
piled up fixed charges, to be passed on to con-
sumers and workers.
One-thrd of the railroads of this country are
bankrupt now, and half the rest are on the edge
of bankruptcy. 1t is high time for change

SHORTER WORKDAY TO NEW
YORK TRUCK DRIVERS

New York City 0LNS).-The truck
mems strike is practically settled, in
spite Of some points still to be ironed
out with the "old guard" of truck own
ers. The credit for the settlement may
be divided between Mayor La Guardia,
who devised the compromise and back
ed it with all the picturesque force of
his nature; and the international
Brotherhood of Teamsters and its New
York chief, Michael J. Cashal.
La Guardia's compromise calls for
a 44-hour week with wages unchanged
from the present Al hours. The strikers
approved it almost at once. Both or
ganizations of employers at first re-
iected. La Guardia called out more
than 800 city trucks, drawn, of course
from other uses-and offered them to
striking truck drivers to use in carry
ing merchandise in defiance of their
employers.
That caved in the opposition. The
Merchant Truckmen's Bureau repre-
senting local operators, in spit of bit
ter criticisms made by some of it's re-
calcitrants, voted to accept the COM
promise. They did this after scores
of individual firms had walked up and
signed the agreement-and after their
joint wage scale committee had been
reduced from 10 members to four, by
disatfections. The Highway Transpor-
tation Association, representing the
long-distance haulers, first voted to re-
ject the compromise, then voted to
send a delegation to the mayor. But
by that time, it made very little diff
ference. The mayor and the drivers
had won.
Outside the city limits, in New Jer-
sey and Westchester county, n. Z.
two truck strikes for the same terms
were settled on the same basis; though
here, too, there were some odds and
ends to pickup.

COMMENT ON WORLD
EVENTS

The U. S. Maritime Commission has
approved the adjustment plan which
qualities the Dollar Steamship Line on
the Pacific for help provided by Con-
gress in the last shipping bill. The
facts set forth in the document of ap-
proval are more important to Ameri-
can shipping policy than the fate of
the Dollar Line. The commission
states frankly that the former man.
agement of the Dollar Line failed to
do it's work or meet it's obligations.
"These failures" says the public
statement of the commission, "are in
dicated by excessive withdrawals over
period of years for salaries of ex-
ecutive officers. The volume of these
Withdrawals in the case of r. Stanley
Dollar from the years of 1923 to 1888
and for six months Of 1884 amounted
to $2,526,501.22. During the same
period, Mr.. j. Harold Dollars with
drawals aggregated $1,0s1 ,693.62; Mr..
H. L. Lorber's Withdrawals totalled
$737,92621 and those of Mr.. Herbert
Fleishhacker, $377,756.S5."
Figuring it out for the 11.5 years,
Mr.. r. Stanley Dollar averaged $219,-
700 a year, and even Mr.. Fleishhacker
averaged $32,S4S.
X X X
The commission goes on to show
that r. Stanley Dollar collected in one
year commission of 1921 ,225 for buy
ing ships from the government for his
own company. 1t shows that the Pa
cifc Lighterage Corporation, an affili-
ate belonging entirely to the insiders
of the Dollar Line, made profits Of
81 100000 in five years from services
to the Dollar Line.
What the commission does not tell
is that the total cash invested by those
insiders in the Pacific Lighterage Cor
poration was $500.
X X X
The investigation conducted by
Hugo l.. Black, then Senator from
Alabama, now Justice Of the Supreme
Court, tells this and plenty of other
things. 1t tells how r. Stanley Dollar
charged up to the company his Wash
ington and New York expenses while
buying the ships-and those expenses
were seldom less than $4,000 a week
1t tells how the company was soaked
for the expenses of R. Stanley Dollars
trip around the world.
But the commission makes it very
clear that r. Stanley Dollar and H. l.,
Lorber had to get out of the company
before the plan would be approved
This is one right good sign.
Now, if the commission will remedy
the defect that hit seamen most keen
ly on the old Dollar Line, there will
be some hope for the American mer-
chant marine Sailors who had expert
ence always said that sea gulls never
followed a Dollar ship, because moth
ing would come from it that even a
gull could eat.

It's red!
That blazing, crimson gum tree
Against the sombre green back
ground of the oaks
At the western margin Of a little
field
Where the grasses have turned
brown
And yellow golden rods begin to
fade
No Corot would possibly paint such
a picture
1t is too symmetrical, both flaming
gum and dark oak leaves
Placed in exact centre of the fields

On little level spot, below slop-
ing hill.

1t is not the frost this year.
Drouth is on the land this fall
Dig post hole two feet deep, to
know it
Little spring brooks are running
Country wells are dry, and house
wives SET Cnelr CuDS-
To catch the once-in-a-while rain
that falls
1t must have been dry in the upper
hills
To have starved these lower water
levels So
And the trees are registering their
protests
In too early fall colorings this
year
Except where they stand in some
lower spot
Or have their tap-roots deep enough
to drink
From water-tables farther down.
X X X
But, these colors:
And why does red so catch the eye?
Once the red gum leaves have weak
ened your attention.
You see smaller flames creeping
along branches
And look for the sumach signal
lamps
But it is too dry for the latter
They are dull and brown, lacking
the pigment
Which somehow is left there in the
gum tree leaves
When the moisture begins to drop
Tall hickory sentinels are confused
in coloring-
Unable to wait for the paint-brush
of the frost
Their leaves are browning at the
edges
With mingled yellows on their
blades
Sad prelude to the later harmony of
the colors-
Should frost at last slash through
the drouth-
And separate the colors, red and
brown and yellow
From their accustomed greens of
spring and summer
X X X
But, that red!
Why does it so smite the senses?
Was red the first color that the un-
folding eye could see?
Have countless ages of camp fires
left their imprint?
Were the red leaves of long ago
the warning sigh
Of winter coming, of time to hunt
for cave and hollow tree
Of failing food supply, and need for
cautious storing?
That calls for longtime thoughts,
and ancient fear
While this red fame is charming,
beauteouS-
Like red of cannas, dahlias, roses
Peonies, and sunsets.
X X x
Perhaps it is because the blood is
red
Sign of life, and warm-bodied be-
ings-
Sign of danger, when it flows
Sign of hope and home
Around the hearthstone.
