Relation Of Light to Night in
Traffic

Traffic accidents have now reached such
an appalling total as to demand attention
from even the most casual minded OF our
citizenry. In 1897 there were over 20 mil
lion motor vehicles registered in the United
States. This is over 16 million more than in
all other countries combined. With but six
per cent of the worlds population, we oper-
ate 70 per cent Of the worlds automobiles.
And during the same year of 1897, there
were over $4,000 people killed by automo-
biles-after dark. Thus, 60 per cent Of the
total of $4,000 traffic fatalities occurred dur
ing night time, when only one out of every

Union Men Must Go On

Union men and women have no reason to
Aatter themselves that their work is done
because their trade and the trades of many
others are organized. As long as there are
workers unorganized (and there are millions
of them in the United States) organized labor
cannot cease it's fight to increase union mem
bership. As William Green said: ours is
a constant, nev~er-ending fight for a full and
complete recognition on the part Of all I'M
plovers of labor of the principles of collective
bargaining, for justice, decent wages and
tolerabIe and humane conditions of employ
ment. Our task will never be completed so
long as any part Of this undeclared goal re-
mains unrealized Trades Council NelDS, st.

Partisan League affiliates r head
ing the battle on behalf of the peo-
pies rights. The just demands of
the farmers, the workers and the
consumers are all a part OF Labor's
Non-Partisan League state programs.
Progress is not measured at the bal
lot box alone, though victories there
are dramatizing the steady advance
of labor to political power.
Labor does not seek office for the
sake of office; patronage is not its
goal. Social legislation in the in
terests of all the people is the sole
aim of labor's participation in poll
tics. Insofar as labor attains this
aim it is uccessful.--National Bulle-

Neither encouragement nor over
confidence resulting from a single
political campaign can be allowed
to halt this fundamental task that
lies ahead. 1t is imperative that
labor's political strength be organ
lied parallel to its economic strength.
Experience has demonstrated that
it is not enough for labor simply to
mobilize its political power on cleo
ton day and then forget about it.
Such tactics make labor the sacri-
fetal lamb on the altar of machine
politics. Labor can no more afford
to neglect its political duty through
out the year than it can afford to
drop its union in between strikes.
Labor's political influence has won
widespread recognition in recent
years and it is the balance OF power
factor in virtually all industrial
states. Wherever labor enters poll
tics its prestige and votes are thrown
on the side of effective democracy
and honest government. This view
was expressed by Chairman John L,
Lewis, of Labor's Non-Partisan
League in addressing the New York
Herald Tribune Forum, where he
said:
"The labor movement with which
| am associated seeks to recover
some of the lost ground of demo
cracy. 1t looks to fairer relations
between capital and labor and
more articulate voice for industrial
workers in the councils of the ma
ton. 1t seeks to destroy one O.
the institutions of our fathers, only
to make them respond more effec
lively to the demands of social jus
tice within the democratic state.

AFTER ELECTION
FORWARD!

The 1888 elections r another
milestone in the steady growth of
Labor's Non-P Partisan League.
Now that the elections are behind
us, the vital job of building the
League in state after state must pro-
coed.
The outcome of any particular con-
test in the 1888 campaign is of sec
ondary importance to this day-by-
day task of forming the League on
a strong permanent basis. The really
vital question is whether the pro-
labor forces have united themselves
into a fighting organization that will
be on the job from now on out.
Many grave legislative problems
confront the labor movement in the
months just ahead. The state affili-
ates of Labor's Non-Partisan League
will be called on for new and vital
duty.
We know that we must fight to
protect the hard-won guarantees OF
the right of collective bargaining.
We know that we must be alert to
save the federal program for the
unemployed. We know that the
social security act will be at stake
in Congress this winter.
These are but some of the vita
issues on which labor must be ready
to exert its political strength ir
legislative halls. State capitols mus
be watched, too, lest the enemies O
labor slip over restrictive laws state
by state.

California Heavily
Favored 10 Rout
Georgia Tech
Big Weight Edge With
Bears, After Revenge
For 1886 Defect
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
BERKELEY, Calf, Dec. 26.-Un-
accompanied by the fanfare which
goes with bowl games. Georgia
Tech and University of California
clash here today in the 1888 col
legiate football finale that may
develop into one of the best Donny-
brooks on the Coast this year.
California is favored at odds to 2
to / or better, but experts consider
the betting out of line, judging past
performances of teams from below
the Mason Dixon line in sectional
strife.
The Rambling Wrecks season
record is none too impressive, with
3 wins, 3 losses and 3 ties. Duke
and Notre Dame, however, whipped
Georgia Tech by narrow margins.
and Alabama could get no better
than a tie with Coach Bill Alex
ander's boys.
California lost only to Southern
California the past season and
wound up in a tie for the Pacific
Conference title.
Bears Have Weight Edge.
Handing the game to California
on a platter, as the odds indicate,
has Coach Leonard Stub" Allison
plenty worried, but he still has some
ammunition for his pre-game and
half time locker room speeches. A
favored California team went to At
lanta in 1886 and took 7-l3 laclng.
Der Stubber will not neglect to re-
mind his players of that loss.
California has a slight edge IN
weight in the line, the Bears aV-
eraging 1877 pounds, but the Engl-
neers are conceded to have the
best center and guards.
The Golden Bears have 10
pound -to-the-man bulge IN tne
backfield. and the combination OF
Vic Bottari, Dave Anderson and
Louis Smith is supposedly more
versatile than Techs best ball car
riers.
Techs passing attack has been
strengthened with the return OF
End Robert Ison, out of action since
the Vanderbilt game with a broken
ankle.
Fifth Game in Series.
The game, which winds up the
season for both teams, will be the
fifth in a series which began in
1929. The Rambling Wrecks won
the first tilt, 81, in the Rose Bowl,
and California won in 1881 ard
1882 by 1876 and 27-7.
