War Death To Civilization
(Thomas F. Woodlock in Wall
Street JournaD

Among the many new things which
we are painfully discovering in the
general collapse Of an old order is the
fact that the civilized world can no
longer afford war-this for the first
time in the history of mankind. Mod
ern war and modern civilizations are
simply incompatible, for war can
neither be civilized nor limited 1t is
today an unmitigated evil, the great
est of all material evils. 1t is, more
over, extremely difficult to imagine
modern circumstances in which it's en-
ployment as a means to prevent a
spiritual evil would be warranted as
a choice of the lesser evil Of the two
The terrible impasse that we have
been facing for quarter Of century
arises from the fact that while the
modern world cannot afford war, it
has been apparently unable to make a
peace Peace has yet to be made. All
that we have done so far is to recoil
at the last moment from war. The
hopeful thing now is that the great
fear that held us back may be lasting
enough to bring US to the point where
beginning can be made on peace.

then run them through expensive re-
organizations of which they US
ually come with debts bigger than
before"
That really "roiled" the railroad
lawyers. They declared acidly that
the Wheeler investigation wasn't fin
ished, that it only covered a small
section of the railroads, that it was
wicked to charge all the railroads with
the sins of the Van Sweringens, and
that a Senate investigation had no
business before the board, anyhow
No Hint of Compromise
Neither side offered the slightest
hint of compromise. Railroad spokes-
men repeated again and again that
only a wage cut could save the rail-
roads. Spokesman for the workers
argued that any slash in railroad
wages would start a general wage cut,
which would lower buying power and
destroy another section of the markets
for goods and services. And there the
matter stands.
Walter P Stacy, chairman of the
emergency board and Chief Justice
of North Carolina, indicated that the
board would not file its report until
October 27, the last day allowed by the
law. For 80 days after that report is
made, there can be neither wage cut
nor strike, which brings the strike
deadline close to December /.

Peace Is Labor's Best Hope. Former
/. L. O. Director Says.

Washington, D. G. (ILNS).-Prog-
ress of the international Labor Organ
ization hinges on preservation of
peace, Harold B. Butler, former direc-
tor of the organization, declares in
writing in the American Labor Legis-
lation Review.
sThe work of the International La
Dor Organization, he said, Cannot
hope to prosper in war-like atmos-
phere and might be totally ruined in
the chaos which another general war
would not fail to bring. 1t can only
live by peace. 1t was therefore right
that this organization should have
been conceived as part of the machin-
cry of peace"
Re-sounding the keynote and basic
principle upon which the l. L. O. rests,
Butler declared that "every step which
promotes the spread of social justice
is a contribution, direct or indirect,
to the cause of peace. If peace cam
not exist without social justice, still
less can social justice exist without
peace"
War and social degradation go
hand in hand" he asserted "When
the fruit of mans labor is turned to
purposes of destruction, his last state
is worse than the first. Social legis-
lation goes by the board, hours are
heightened and real wages are forced
down as soon as war takes control of
society,"

GREEN ASKS
OPPOSITION TO
AMENDMENT
A. F. of L. President Declares APP
pointive Judiciary Proposal
"Autocratica
(By Ohio Labor News Service)

(By Ohio Labor News SeryIce)
Columbus, O. President William
Green of the American Federation of
Labor last week urged Ohio labor to
unite with all its friends in opposition
to the proposed initiated constitu-
tional amendment providing for the
appointment of judges, which will be
voted upon at the November 8 election.
In letter to President Michael j.
Lyden of the Ohio State Federation of
Labor, President Green described the
proposed amendment as highly OBJ
jectionable" and "in contradiction of
democratic government and pro-
cedure"
Il regard the proposed initiated con-
stitutional amendment providing for
the appointment of judges of the Su-
preme and Appellate Courts in Ohio
as highly Objectionable and in contra
diction of democratic government and
procedure" President Green declared
in his letter.
'.The election Of judges by the people
is democratic. Appointment would be
autocratic. | urge that labor serve
in promoting the principles of democ-
racy in Ohio and that it unite with all
its friends in opposition to the pro-
posed initiated constitutional amend
ment," his letter concludes.
| President Green's statement of OPP
position to the amendment was made
at the request of Thomas j. Donnelly,
secretary treasurer Of the Ohio State
Federation of Labor, and is in accord
with the active cooperation Of the
state federation with other groups in
opposing the amendment, which has
been termed Fascist proposal" and
an European importation" by the
federation.

Washington, D. C. (ILNS) Hear
ings on the proposed railroad wage cut
before the Presidents fact-fnding
board came to rather lop-sided finish.
The fireworks were practically all on
one side. Witnesses and attorneys for
the rail workers gave chapter and
verse and comparisons; witnesses and
attorneys for the railroads simply re-
peated that wage cut was the only
way.
The Interstate Commerce Commit
tee of the Senate, led by Senators
Wheeler of Montana and Truman of
Missouri, have piled up one of the
most damning indictments of railroad
finance ever penned. Naturally, both
Senators were summoned to testify
before the board.
Senator Wheeler cited q specific
examples of railroad waste uncovered
by the committees inquiry, declared
that the railroads by eliminating that
waste could save million dollars a
day, when the most they could save
by wage cut was S750,000 day.
