Lincoln, Ill.-As one who gets dis
couraged with the slowness of prog
ress as applicable to the workers of
industry and those, who, for some
reason beyond their control, do not
have the opportunity for employment,
l am especially discouraged with the
human element Of the employer class
that expounds the dangers to our
democratic form of government, then
so inconsistently becomes party to a
working agreement and endeavors to
deviate from said agreement by
speeding up or slowing down their
machines to whip the employees into
doing their bidding. Instances of this
kind and your recent editorial "NOT
so SLOW" have aroused my interest
enough to tempt me to make some
comment along the lines indicated.
You point out that in less than three
years under the Social Security Act
over 3S,OOO,00O accounts have been
set up, with payment Of benefits of
So, 100000 since January l., 1887 You
state further that in the first three
months of this year $62,0O0,O00 has
been paid; that 47,3OO needy blind,
554 900 dependent children and 1,61O,-
900 aged, other than those covered by
insurance, have received help. "Slow? :?
A social revolution in less than three
years"
l take note, too, of the progress in
eradicating social diseases as well as
other social legislation. l am not at

tempting to belittle these records, but
l think we all agree that at best we
are unable to keep pace with the prog
ress of invention and the destruction
of purchasing power, through the
management of the machine by
employers. We know that in many in
stances the blind, aged, unemployed,
etc. only receive paltry sum of
around $12 or $14 per month. In some
cases this is only for certain number
of weeks regardless of the dire need
after the time period expires. In
other words, the various set-ups are
not adequate to meet the needs of our
system.
This condition was recognized at our
recent convention, when a recon-
mendation was adopted to have our
A. F. of L. delegates sponsor prop
osition to consider the taxing of the
power that operates the machines.
My main objective is to point out
the unconscious contributing factor to
this revolution of less than three
years. Apparently, the greatest con-
tributing factor has been the attitude
of many employers, who condemn
these acts as seriously endangering
our democratic form of government
At the same time they slow down or
speed up their machines to force their
workers to kneel to their bidding.

Interesting Account Of Work
Done Past 10 Years
Told By Hull
POLLS OPEN AT 7::3O
All Members Requested To
Vote On National
Questions

An interesting account Of the organ
ization work done in the past ten
years was given by Brother Frank
Hull at the last meeting Of Local
Union No. 9. We feel certain that the
work Of the organizers has been
beneficial, in most cases, to the Broth
erhood
Brother Hull stated that there is a
dire need for more organizers in the
earthenware and porcelain branches of
the industry since generalware shapes
and bodies are being added to their
other clay products.
The polls will be open at 7:30 next
meeting night to enable each and
every member to exercise the right Of
voting on the two propositions adopted
by the last convention and sent to a
vote of the trade.
These referendums are: The Gre
alton of a new salaried Office to be
known as Second Vice President and
ten per cent increase for the Presi-
dent, First Vice President, Secretary
Treasurer and Organizer
Every member of the local is re-
quested to vote on these very import
ant questions. The polls will be open
at 1880 each meeting night until the
deadline. Voting on the first question
closes August 22 and end of the month
on the other.
The greatest sympathy Of the local
goes out to the family and friends of
Brother John Gibbs who died July 26.

Second Largest Local Plans
Gala Evening For
August 18th
OFFICERS FAITHFUL
Majority of OMcials Are
Charter Members With
Years Of Service

Members of Local Union No. 81 are
all set to celebrate the twenty fifth
anniversary Of the local at the next
regular meeting, Friday night, August
r.
Local Ga, the second largest in the
Brotherhood, with some 800 members,
is composed of brushers, waredress-
ers and dippinghouse girls. The To-
cal has had a very successful career
and has been blessed with unusually
fine management in its twenty-five
years.
A majority Of the officers now serv-
ing are charter members and have put
in many years of service. President
LYDIA Smith has been at the head of
the organization some forty terms. The
first president was Mrs. Bixby, now
living out of town, according to the
members. Mrs. Mary Hanley, also a
charter member, has served as record
ing secretary since the formation of
the organization.
Florence Hendricks, financial secre-
tary and charter member has held her
position in the local for about twenty
years, while Treasurer Dorothy Peter
son has served the full twenty-five
years. This is quite record and one
which should stand long time.
A committee has beer appointed to
furnish entertainment and refresh
ments. The Nasr,s ssnelals have
been invited to attelsa and the local
intends to have a gala evening.
At the last regular meeting, a con-
feree was named to represent the To-
cal at the wage conference to be held
soon. The meeting will start at 700
p. m. sharp since there is business to
transact and members will vote on
the wage raise for the President, First
Vice President, Secretary-Treasurer
and Organizer, and the creation of the
new salaried office. Both of these
propositions were passed at the last
convention and are now up to the vote
of the trade.-O. G. "a.

The committee gave an excellent re-
port of their meeting with the mana
ger and superintendent of the Mutual
Pottery Company. The progress of
our expected agreement, along with
Locals SO and 81, was explained by
Vice President George Cook. The Nat
ional Official also, as delegate to Mer-
Ger County Building Trades Council,
spoke on the happenings of that body.
Mr.. Cook asks the cooperation of
every member of the National Broth
erhood of Operative Potters to aid US
in securing the sanitary ware contracts
for all new buildings. Members are
requested to inspect the sanitary ware
being used in new buildings in their
locality. Please make it your business
to find out where it was made and re-
port any non-union ware to the Nat
ional Officials. We have the cooper
alton of the plumbers and the rest of
the building trades, so please be on the
lookout for non-union ware.

made by taking men from one line of
work and placing them on another.

Advisory Boards Dominated
BY Big Bankers. Says
Eliot Hurris
USE INFLUENCE
Small and New Business Not

When Needed
USE INFLUENCE
BY ELIOT HARRIS

Washington, ID. c. (1LNS(.-Here is
the amazing story Of how the Recon-
struction Finance Corporation is ham
strung-of why it cannot and will not
spring into action as part Of the New
Deal finance machine to revive bust
ness. Here is the story of how the
dead hand Of the past and the paralyz-
ing hand Of the banks grip this giant
agency and render it virtually useless.
In part, the RFC was born that
way, as the old song says. 1t was
created to loan money to shaky banks
That was the original idea. 1t was
amended to lend money to railroads
and to state and local governments for
relief. The last was not fieabite on
what was needed the railroad loans
more than once bailed out the banks
which had loaned not wisely but too
much to shaky railroads. The bank
loans Of the RFC greatly lessened
bank failures for time, and gave
the Hoover administration a breath
ing spell which it didn't use; and when
the shaky banks had pledged all their
good collateral came the deluge.
Loans Now Needed to Start up
Business
What is wanted now, at least in
part, are loans that will start up bus
mess, perhaps even finance new bus
mess.
The RFC now has scattered through
the c0untry 26 loan agencies, ranging
from Boston to Los Angeles. There
were more; but several have been
consolidated. Each agency has a man
ager, assistant manager and such
staff as the position needs. All ap-
plications for loans are made to one
of these 26 agencies. The local agency
examines the proposition, makes up
it's mind, and sends the application to
Washington with approval or disap-
proval.
But in each agency district is an ad-
visory board, whose function is de-
scribed by its name. The advisory
board in each district is there to give
advice on applications from its dis
trict. 1t is composed, mainly, of men
in active business, who serve without
pay. 1t seems to be the custom to
consult at least two members of the
advisory board on nearly all loans
more of those members, doubtless, on
important loans.
And more than 60 per cent of all
the members of the advisory board of
the RFC are officials of banks and
trust companies. The trade journal,
American Banker, calls them all bank
ers, and is right. They will be called
SO here.
Let US assume that banker would
have no more bias than anyone else
in making a relief loan; and that was
what the RFC set out to do. When

We're in accord and expressed them

that no jurisdictional dispute was ev-

the understanding that the plant,
which suspended operations in August,
1887, would resume work if a general
10 per cent reduction in wages was

The disappointing feature Of the whole

New Bedford, Mass.-Due to the
persistency of the national officers of
the National Brotherhood Of Operative
Potters the National Labor Relations
Board of Boston arranged meeting
on July II between the officials of the
National Brotherhood of Operative
Potters, the International Brother
hood of Electrical Workers Union and
Mr.. Gustaf Johnson, Mr.. Jack John
son representing the j. l. Paulding
Company, electrical manufacturing
concern of New Bedford, Mass.
First Vice President Wheatley of the
National Brotherhood Of Operative
Potters filed complaint with the Re-
gional Labor Board of Boston in April,
charging the J. l. Paulding Company
with violating every section of the
Wagner Labor Relations Act with the
exception of discrimination. This was
omitted because the plant was not op-
Grating at the time the complaints
were filed.
The J. l. Paulding officials have, in
various newspaper insertions here, in
ferred that no difficulty existed at the
plant as far as the relations between
the firm and the Electrical Workers
Union and the Potters Union was con-
cerned, but inferred that jurisdic-
tional dispute existed between the
Electrical Workers Union and the
National Brotherhood of Operative
Potters.
