BURKE SEES MERIT
+. IN SUDETEN DEAL
Senator, Back From Trip,
Says Labor Board Power
Should Be CurtaiIed.
,Ey the Associated Press,

ES the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Sept. 3O.-Senator Ed
ward R. Burke. Democrat, Of Nebraska
said last night on his return from a
European tour that he saw "a great
deal Of merit In the proposal that the
Sudeten areas should 60 to Germany
II don't like just the way they
have gone about It," he said, but
there can be no real settlement of the
matter until that is done Looking
back, it seems now that the boundary
drawn between Germany and Czecho-
slovakia was a great mistake.
Il thinl: an editorial in the London
Times describes the situation when it
said that justice was not injustice
simply because it is demanded by a
dictator"
Good Business Goal in Britain.
Senator Burke, outspoken opponent
OF the Wagner Labor Relations Act,
visited England, Germany, Holland,
France, Italy, Switzerland and Bel
GUM to study labor conditions. Much
could be learned on this subject from
Great Britain, he said.
"All classes in Great Britain want
to keep the government out OF labor
relations" he explained. THE British
worker has shorter hours and better
pay for overtime than anywhere else
There is a feeling on both sides of
making business successful, the oppo-
site OF it in the United States, where
1t Is considered that what is good
for the employer must be bad for labor
and vice versa"
One Of the first changes in the
Wagner Act. he said, should be to
strip the Labor Board Of its judicial
powers. He stated he believed it should
have only the power to investigate,
leaving prosecution to the courts.
Freedom for Labor Urged.
The Labor Act was faulty, he added,
in that 1t is based upon the idea
that all the trouble is due to en-
ployers being guilty Of preventing
workers from organizing. I believe
labor should be free to organize and
this right should be protected by the
Government. but the worker ought to
be really free to join a union or not
as he wishes. The Labor Board def
nitely sets out to unionize all labor u

When the Greensteins came from

should find some other place and

This morning PA Greenstein
closed his restaurant to paying GUS
toners and admitted the first of his
long line of holiday guests. Reckon
ing, usually, on 1000 diners, the
Greenstreins serve until the heaps
of food are gone. In previous years
that has been late in the evening.
It was estimated the total cost of
this 46-year philanthropy was, rough
ly, about $4,000.
