The Congressional Record still attracts
serious attention, although fears exist
that it has in the course of decade or
so developed too many columnists and
not enough plain, serious contributors.

The Fool Tree.

Inc ROOF Tree.
One day stopped to take look
In a first-class agricultural book.
But not a chapter could 1 see
That told about the Blame Fool tree.
The Blame Fool tree will look around
When snow is thick upon the ground
And shake itself and lightly say,
Il know a thaw is on the way!"
When the sun shines bright and the
skies are blue
And the South Wind whispers song
or two
The Blame Fool tree serenely smiles
And begins to talk of the summer styles.
It bids farewell to the winter gloom,
And it says it will soon be in. full bloom,
And puts out buds on joyous plan
As it says Pooh Pooh" to the weather
man.
Along comes a blizzard fierce and bold
And the buds curl up In the bitter cold
And the market news sings the old
refrain,
The gosh-durn fruit crop has failed
again!"
When tempted to think that you know
more
Than the old folks who have gone before,
When you think that fortune should
come to you
When experience says it is not yet due,
Oh, put on your earmuffs and come with
me
And take look at the Blame Fool tree.

residence The Democratic party has
practical habit of looking to the North
for presidential candidates.
Two anti-New Dealers in the Senate
who are building fences and playing for
the support of the conservative wing OF
the party are Senator Burton K. Wheeler
of Montana and Senator Bennett Champ

by such narrow margin in 1912.

of Kentucky can produce smashing VIC

Barley is the type of presidential candi-

event of convention deadlock.
Right at the moment, the two men who
have their eyes on the presidency and
who have the most to show for their

l64.976 Aliens Became
u. S. Citizens In 1887

Washington, d. C. (AFLWNS).-
Government officials interpret econ
omic conditions in both the United
States and foreign countries coupled
with the tendency to bar unnatural
lied aliens from Government employ
ment, including employment on relief
work projects, as being responsible for
the large increase in the number of
aliens becoming American citizens
during the last few years.
This increasing desire of aliens to
become citizens was revealed in re-
ports by the Immigration and Natural
ization Service The reports show a
steady increase in the issuance of final
citizenship papers to foreigners since
the low mark of 113,363 during the
1888 fiscal year. In 1884 there were
1860 final papers issued. These in
creased to llS,945 in 1885, to 141, ,265
in 1886 and to 64,976 in 1887. Official
reports for 1888 are not yet available,
but officials predicted there would be
a further rise in immigrants who have
definitely made up their minds to be-
come citizens of the United States.

the application of general statutory
language to specific cases, number
of antiquities had developed in the
administration of the Labor Act in the
past three years.
Some of these antiquities, he con-
tinued, had been settled by judicial
Interpretation, but others still remain
ed.
Amendments VisiOned
In any event, Mr.. Roosevelt declared
it was within the range of possibility
that clarifcation of antiquities in the
Labor Relations Act would be under
taken at the next session of Congress
He declined, however, to impart any
information on the nature of the clari-
fications sought or the extent of the
revisions to be undertaken.
Conferences Planned
President Roosevelt did make it
plain, nevertheless, that conferences
with the National Labor Relations
Board, various labor groups and coun-
sci for interested parties would be
held before any revisions were at
tempted.
Labor Board Defied Courts
Illustrative of Mr.. Green's com.
plants to President Roosevelt relative
to the Labor Board having exceeded
it's authority was the case of the Am
bridge Products Company, Ambridge
Pa, in which he said the Labor Boart
had not only shown partisanship fol
the C. |. O., but, in addition, defie6
the courts. In that case the Labor
Board persisted in setting aside at the
instigation of the C. |. O. contract
between the company and the Elec
trical Workers Union, an affiliate OF
the American Federation of Labor
even after the Federal courts in Penn
sylvania had upheld the contract. Mr.
Green said that the Labor Board die
not retreat from it's championship o1
the C. |. O. until the A. f. of l.. unior
had won in an election to determine
majority representation.
Importance of Impartial
Administration
1t goes without saying that the Ma
tional Labor Relations Act was no
passed by Congress to be used agains
the unions affiliated with the Ameri
can Federation of Labor and in favo
of that secession movement known al
the Committee for Industrial Organ
ization. 1t is equally plain that th'
National Labor Relations Board wa
not created for the accomplishment o
this subversive purpose.
The millions of members of the bon;
tide labor movement are glad to learl
that this unfortunate and unwarrante,
anomaly is in process of being correct
ed so that the law designed to guaran
tee the right to organize and bargain
collectively, with the rights of Graf
unions adequately safeguarded, will b
more impartially and more judiciall
administered.

Minerva, O.-The insurance com

reach a plan that will be favored by
all. Recently augmented by members
from the unrepresented departments
this group has been spending great
deal Of time and effort in working out
a new plan which will be to the liking

member will be present to hear anc

gether again the first part of next

ing power upon which industries de-
pend for sale of products and services
There is now more conscience and hesi-
tation on the part Of employers in pro-
posing wage cuts matched by intelli-
gent resistance on the part of unions
The result has been a steadying force
in business activity.
In the past year unemployment com
pensation laws have gone into effect
in more than half our states and will
be in effect in all but two with the be.
ginning of next year. The purpose OF
unemployment compensation is to pro
vide economic security for those en-
ployable workers who have lost then
jobs. Even though the laws are not
yet perfect or their administration
satisfactory, the big thing is the es-
tablishment of the principle that
workers losing jobs still have a right
to income.
Another big forward step of the
past year is social legislation fixing q
wage minimum below which competi.
tion may not force workers to work
in industries under Federal jurisdic.
ton and establishing maximum hours
beyond which overtime is enforced
These two measures raised the econ
omic level of all our living and pro
vide a new sense of security for those
whose incomes depend upon keeping
their jobs.
However. these new laws together
with the National Labor Relation:
Act, public contracts, as well as the
more familiar laws, bring us to the
serious problem of getting under
standing and practical administrators
Labor experience is necessary for th'
administration of labor law.
The problems of the coming yea
challenge Labor's ability in organiza
ton and securing representation fo
it's views and experience in the ad
ministratve work of the Government
The situation calls for a rededicatiol
to the cause of unionism and for uni
flying our labor movement. Our natl
onal life is a unity and Labor canno
divide it's forces without loss to itsel
and the cause Of human welfare.
Let us determine to forge nev
unity during the year, sweep asid
all disruption, and take advantage o
the opportunities which we can turl
into strength for the cause of union
ism and higher standards of livin,

antic and Gulf Coast members, 1000
Great Lakes seamen, and other groups.
Teamsters Included
In addition to the new sea-
mems union the Maritime Department
would take in truckmen who drive
merchandise to and from the piers, and
the longshoremen who load and unload
the ships. According to Mr.. Green
this integration would work like nut
cracker on any hostile group that
sought to obtain or retain a foothold
in the shipping field.
Mr.. Green said he could not state
exactly how many persons would be
covered by the new department, but
it was estimated that the various
unions would include at least 100000
members. The International Brother
hood of Teamsters would be part OF
the department, but only those team
sters who carried freight. to piers
actually will be involved. Teamsters
in prairie cities would have little iden-
tity of interest with sailors and long.
shoremen. Nevertheless the new de.
partment would have back of it the in.
fuence and Importance of the entire
Teamsters Brotherhood with mem.
bership of 100000.
Other groups scheduled for affilia
ton with the new department are
masters, mates and pilots; harbor tow
boatmen; cooks and stewards, anC
certain classifcations Of railroad work
ers who deliver merchandise directly
to the docks.

FRAUD IS FEARED
(By Ohio Labor News Service)

(By Ohio Labor News Service)
Columbus, O.-Check Of petitions
filed by proponents of constitutional
amendment, providing for appointment
rather than election of Ohio's judici-
ary, for fraudulent signatures was
urged last week by Thomas j. Donnel-
ly, Secretary Treasurer of the Ohio
State Federation of Labor in a letter
sent to all AFL City Central Bodies
and Local Unions in the State.
Donnelly's letter officially opens
Organized Labor's campaign against
the proposal, which may appear on the
November ballot if Secretary of State
William j. Kennedy approves petitions
bearing 365,OC0 signatures, secured
after two years effort by committee
sponsoring the amendment.
Calling attention to the fact that
the signatures were obtained by solici-
tors who received pay for each name
appearing on their petitions, Donnelly
stressed the Importance of checking
the signatures to determine if they
are genuine and the signers residents
and legal voters in their designated po-
litical subdivisions.
He requested affiliated bodies to
send representatives to their Boards
of Elections and inspect petitions on
file there for fraudulent signatures,
pointing out that Labor should not de-
pend altogether on the Boards to do
this, but should satisfy themselves
that the petitions bear bona fide sig
natures.
Organized Labor in the State, repre-
sented by the Ohio State Federation of
Labor, placed itself on record in OPP
position to the proposal to appoint the
judiciary, thereby removing the con-
stitutional privilege of electing judges
to interpret the law, when the amend
ment was first proposed two years ago.
Since that time City Central Bodies
and Local Unions throughout the state
have declared themselves in opposition
to the proposal, and Labor will present
united front against the system,
which was termed Fascist" and an
European Importation" at the Gin
cinnati convention of the Federation
the first week in August.
Donnelly's letter also reported to
the AFL membership the status of
court action against the Regional
Claims Boards of the Industrial Com
mission, and litigation over a disputed
ruling of the Unemployment Compen-
sation Commission proposing an, hun-
satisfactory method of determining
the average weekly wage of workers
applying for unemployment compen-
sation benefits.

Mr.. Frey said.
"The more l see of the results of
administrative activity in Federal de-
partments affecting labor, the more I
become convinced that a majority of
the administrators are incompetent
because of lack of experience in indus
trial relations and the more convinced
| am that university graduates to be
successful administrators must have
associated with them responsible men
taken from the field of management
and labor"
Mr.. Frey emphasized that his criti-
cism Of the Wages and Hours Law was
not intended in any way to reflect on
Elmer F. Andrews, the present Adj
ministrator, who is required to take
the law as Congress passed it.
