NO LOSS

The company was on a 30-mile hike
to Houston. After walking for three
hours the major halted a farmer and
asked him: "How far is it to Hous-
toni"
ooh about 10 miles," replied the
rustic.
After walking another hour the
major stopped another farmer and
asked him the same thing.
81 should say about 10 miles" was
the reply.
The body continued on its weary
way for two hours, and then came
to a constable.
"How far is it to Houston?"
about 10 miles"
THANK Gawd," cried the major,

Statement Of 0|d-Age
Account Supplied 10 The
Workers on Request

Any worker for whom a federal
old-age insurance account has been
established may obtain from the
Social Security Board a statement
showing the amount of wages credit
ed to his account for 1887 on the
basis of reports made by employers,
Manager Stewart J. Thomas of the
Butte field office of the board an
nounced here today.
For the convenience of those who
want such a statement, the board
has sent to all its field offices post
cards which have printed on them
the request for wage information.
Space is left for the wage earner to
write in his name, account number,
and address. The card should be
mailed, either with a 1-cent stamp,
or in a sealed envelope addressed to
the Social Security Board, Gambler
Building, Baltimore, Maryland. After
a person has received a report of
his wage account from the board, a
second form is available at all field
offices for his use if he believes that
he earned wages that were not re-
ported. On this form the wage
Garner should list each employer for
whom he has worked, how long he
was employed by each, and the
wages he received.
All individuals requesting wage
information should use the postcard
form, since requests made by letter
cannot be handled by the Social
Security Board as rapidly as those
made on the forms, Manager Thomas
said.
Requests for statements of wage
accounts already have been received
from more than 10000 wage earners.
The only cases in which it was i'm
possible to provide applicants with
statements of wages received were
those in which the individuals had
been engaged in employment not
covered by the federal old-age in
surance provisions of the Social Sc
curity Act, such as railroad work,
farm labor, and domestic service.

AT THE GATES I'll
A CARD
81 ought to get a reward

Il ought to get a reward
For never owning a union card;
1--WE never grumbled, I've never
struck.
I've never posed with union truck.
Il must be going my way to win,
$50 open, st. Peter, and let me in"
But Peter sat and shook his staff
Despite his high office, he had to
laugh.
Said he, with a fiery CLEAN in his
eye:
who is tending this gate, sir, you
or I?
1--WE heard of you and your gift of
CAB;
"You r what is known on earth as
a scabi"
Thereupon he rose to his stature
tall
And pressed a button upon the wall,
And said to the imp that answered
the bell:
Escort this fellow around to hell, "
Tell Satan to give him a seat alone
"On a red-hot griddle up near the
throne.
But stay, for the Devil can't stand
the smell
"Of cooking a scab on a griddle in
hell;
ut would cause a revolt, a strike,
l know
"If l sent you down to the imps
below.
GO back to your master on earth
and tell
'That they don't even want a scab
in hell"

Advertisement Proposes Open
Shop Program in Flathead
County.

The Daily Inter-Lake of Kalispell
carried a large display advertise
ment of the Associated Industries of
Flathead county on September 10th,
1888. This advertisement was a
piece of propaganda designed to
establish an open shop system in the
city of Kalispell and northwestern
Montana. 1t is something that the
unions have been battling for the
last quarter of a century. 1t is
strange that now after the passage of
the Wages and Hours Bill and after
the passage of the Labor Relations
Disputes Bill and all the other legis-
lation that was passed during the
last 6 or z years that the merchants
of Kalispell should be so stepped in
feudalism as is indicated in this
advertisement.
In order that the rest of the unions
in the state of Montana may realize
the backwardness of conditions in
Kalispell, the advertisement is re-
printed in full:

Montana labor news., 1938-11-03

The leaders of the Student Chris
tan Movement are still, for the
most part, militant Christian work
ers, keenly alive to the anomalies
of u present social system which
they conceive it to be the business
of Christianity to try to put to
rights, and prepared to take serious
ly Christ's teaching on the subject
of non-resistance. Pacifism, / am
told, is making great Roadway in
the Church. In a diocese of 240 par
sons in the north of England 80, l
was assured, are avowedly pacifist,
and in the next war will refuse to
bless the guns. Being an old
fashioned Socialist myself, l could
not help feeling that these radical
parsons, modernist in theology and
reformist in politics, were in the
right of it, and there are, l believe,
more of them than there used to be.
There are, indeed, 10 many, that /
am inclined to think the old iibe,
For Gods sake don't touch the

1t is one of the curious phenomena
of our time that intellectual and
spiritual freedom is confused with
social and economic freedom. In
our complex society social and eco
nomic adjustments are unavoidable,
and the progress Of social legisla-
ton in the Western world shows
that this need makes itself felt more
and more In our communities in
dividuals cannot act according to
their own whims without interior
ing with the freedom of others. 1t
is, however, intolerable that the state
should force a person to actions that
are against his intellectual or spir-
itual principles.-Franz Boas, in The
Nation, August q.

The pretence that capitalism is
consistent with a real democracy in
which the organized working
classes a take their due part in
government, that "gradualness'
along the old familiar lines can still
suffice, wears thinner and thinner,
as the recent course of events dis
closes. The economics as well
as the ethics of capitalism have now
been punctured, and the economic
world is virtually committed to dis
placing the private and blind enter
prise of profiteers by some conscious
ordering of industry by public own
ership or control. This public plan
ming will not, need not, I hold, go
all the way along the road to social
ism or communism. A. Hobson,
quoted in The Nation, August q.

What The Magazines

Three honest men have been dis
agreeing in the Tennessee Valley.
DR.. Arthur Morgan is a great
man born too late. They don't come
that way any more, and there are
people who would add THANK
God" Specifically, as the star
system has gone from the stage, the
one-man show is going from the
modern world, and people who ex-
pect to run the whole works r apt
to get into trouble. We have devised
various technics for cooperation, and
prima donnas who can't mingle with
the company play heck.
That the whole administrative
plan will change is another posi-
bility. There has been talk of a
"one-man set-up," under which, pre-
sumably, a man like DR.. Arthur
Morgan could have functioned. But
this has obvious disadvantages; and
as the giants go we must realize
that the hope of democracy is not
in its strong men, but in the idea
that lesser men, by pooling their
talents in amity, may arrive at the
strong mans STANDARDIZATION Whit

Hitler was also a clown until he got
