CIVIL SERVICES
"ORPHANS" PLAN.
TO FORM union
Merit System for All
Proposed by Shaw

Another Government employees
union, for the sole benefit of
those excluded from protection of
the recent executive orders cover
ing 10000 workers into the merit
system, loomed today.
John Arthur Shaw, local at
torney and former president Of
the American Federation of Gov
eminent Employees, declared he
intends to carry out his plan
tc organize an association Of
emergency employees, which he
abandoned two years ago because
Of inability to obtain the support
Of the American Federation of
OF Labor.
ASKS BENEFITS FOR ALL
Declaring he will carry his drive
through, regardless of size of
membership, until Congress has
placed all Government workers
under civil service protection,
Shaw said the developments
which caused his decision were
tine "merit system" executive
orders and the recently passed
legislation blanketing Democratic
postmasters of first, second and
third class into the civil service.
Shaw said:
"Civil servants who have
proved their ability by carrying
out the duties of their jobs are
entitled to, ana should have, the
protection of civil service status.
I have always held that posi-
ton and two years ago tried, un-
successfully, to convince William
Green that the A. F. G. E., con-
trolled almost entirely by civil
service employees who are not
interested in non-civil service
orphans, should relinquish its
jurisdiction over non-civil service
employees to the National AS
Sociation of Federal Employees
which I had at that time in proc
esS of organization.
BELIEVES TIMES RIPE
II feel now, however, that the
time has come when non-civil
service workers can and will win
their battle, particularly in view
Of the recent executive orders.
These orphans must organize,
however, and carry their battle
to Congress during the next ses-
sion. If the labor movement as
a whole will go along with us,
so much the better, but we can
win anyway.
II am, therefore, issuing a
call to all workers outside civil
service to join in this fight"
Shaw concluded. He invited
interested persons to communi-
cate with him through the
Government Service Bureau of
The Washington Times.

1NOWp Vic AL
thing to get perfectly clear in our
minds is that none of these demands
is politically possible. In order to
carry them out, either President
Eduard Benes, or Prime Minister
Hodza, would have to make himself
dictator and accomplish the changes
by decree.
Czechoslovakia is governed by q
Parliament. 1t would take three
fifths vote to change the constitution.
Konrad Henleln, acting in behalf
of Mr.. Hitler. wants Czechoslovakia
to abandon at least half Of her only
defensive alliance-the three-cornered
Russian Czech French pact, which.
incidentally, only comes into play II
Czechoslovakia is q victim Of unpro-
voked aggression. Is it conceivable
that under present circumstances any
Czech government would freely aban-
don that alliance? Especially when
she knows that France is on the apron
strings of England?
Mr.. Henlein's Program.
Secondly, Mr.. Henlein wants to or
ganize the speaking popula-
ton of Czechoslovakia into Nazi
state, inside the boundaries Of the
country. That Nazi state would act
as an agent OF Germany inside
Czechoslovakia.
Henlein knows that he cannot cap
tura tho CzechoSlovak reDllblic AZ q
whole for Nazism, so he wants to make
a Nazi state out of the speak
ing elements and demand cantoniza-
ton and autonomy.
But no conceivable sort of canton
lied state can exist under one roof
with totally different and hostile social
and political PHILOSOPHERS.
Henlein wants to make 1t illegal fol

man or for any German to sell prop
erty to a Czech. He wants to set up q
sort Of German ghetto. but an ag-
gressive one, to create an eternal bar

mans and Slavs-incidentally against
the very sort Of racial absorption that
created modern Prussia! He wants tc
be able to drive Slavs and Jews out OF
the German sections.

gated section of democratic state
certain non German and non-Nazi
minorities can freely be persecuted!
And at the same time he wants
his followers admitted to overall ad-
ministrative positions and to the
army! The whole proposal is utterly
preposterous. It is an invitation to
civil war!
Now, since Mr.. Henleins visit to
London, statements are coming from
there that these demands represent
his maximum" and not his mini
num-" thus reversing the attitude that
he took In the speech at Carlsbad on
April "a. The acceptance of such a
statement as meaning anything at all
Is a crucial demonstration Of unreal
ism, self deceit and ignorance. And
the ignorance is understandable. with
the example Of Austria still completely
fresh.
Move Arises From Slogan.
The Henlein movement in its viru-
lence has arisen from the slogan Of
the Nazis. to unite all Germans with
in the Reich.
This plan of Henlein's would unite
all Germans as Reich agents inside an
other country. Complete detachment
and union with Germany would be
preferable But that is also politically
anad technically impossible.
There is exactly as good reason to
give the South Tyrol. now part Of Italy
to Germany as there is to give the
sudeten lands to Germany. Neither Of
them, Of course. ever belonged to the
Reich. Both of them were parts Of
the old Austro- Hungarian Empire,
both of them contain German-Speaking
populations. and both Of them lie be-
hind a natural frontier OF mountains.
That is why Mussolini will defend the
Bremen frontier and why the Czecho-
slovaks must defend the Bohemian
frontier
Those who listen to the German
claims seem utterly to forget that what
Germany is asking for IS not German
peoples, but the territory on which
they live as well-terirtory which they
colonized centuries ago. in great push
eastward. Any German NaA who
wants to be joined with the Reich can
join himself to it, with the blessing of
the Czechoslovak Republic. But Ger

Now, the Czechoslovak Republic
could solve this problem in completely
