The Chamber Of Commerce Remains
ReactiOnary

The u. S. Chamber Of Commerce at its
recent session in the Nations Capital was
presented with an unusual opportunity to
make an approach to friendiness for organ
lied labor and thereby set in motion the
machinery to soften the bitterness that char
acterizes industrial relations in many parts
of u country. But what the New York
Times calls Business in Convention" utterly
failed to grasp its opportunity.
The Executive Council OF the American
Federation of Labor, in session in Washing
ton during the meeting Of the Chamber OF
Commerce, in a statement setting forth the
basic aims and detectives of the Fedora
ton" upheld private initiative, private own
ership, private property, and a fair profit for
those who own and operate our system OF
production and distribution.
Declaring that the working people must
be accorded the right to organize and bargain
collectively the Executive Council pointed
out that Labor and capital can cooperate,
develop efficiency and production through
labor organizations developed by the workers
and through the organization of industry as
developed by industrial management, add
ing:
Through the development of team work
between industry and labor, many economic
wrongs can be righted, many of industry's
legislative burdens can be remedied, and the
maximum Of service which industry and
labor may render can be given the entire
nation"
With this statement Of fundamentals as a
basis the Executive Council invited industry
to discard the weapons Of industrial war
fare urged the Substitution of cooperation
and understanding for industrial strife" and
pledged labor's support for peace and prog
ress in industry.
But the Chamber Of Commerce adopted an
ambiguous resolution saying that manage
ment and labor should work together with
out recourse to the Federal Government" on
certain things of common concern" An
other resolution opposed any Federal wage
and hour legislation, and to climax its record
the Chamber in a third resolution advocated
the repeal of the National Labor Relations
Act. which = = $ guarantees by law the right
of the workers to bargain collectively
through representatives Of their own choos-
ING. and whose retention as a Federal law is
one of the demands of the American Fedora
ton Of Labor.
There was no mention Of organized labor,
no mention of trade unionism, no mention Of
collective bargaining, no condemnation of
company unions, labor spies, strike-breaking
thugs, or tear gas and other forms of terror
ism by private police in labor disputes.
Even the conservative Washington Post,
which has not been sparing in its criticism Of
IL NTz4:a..o1 oIOr Do1o4iOoC ACT cfrONOIW
condemned the Chambers demand for the
abolition of that measure. ut is already evil
dent, thanks to the courts" the Post said,
that future administration Of this law will
be more even-handed. For organized en-
ployers to press for outright repeal OF the

STRANGE as it seems, the man who
served as Vice President of the
Confederate States Of America during
the Civil War lived to serve in the
United States Senate
He was Alexander Hamilton Ste
phens, a man of courageous ideals
Prom 1885 to 184l Stephens was a
member Of the Georgia State Legisla-
ture and in 1843 was elected to Con-
gress. While ever loyal to the South
as well as the Nation, Stephens op-
posed the strong Southern rights"
movement that threatened to result in
secession in 1850.
When Gen. Scott refused to approve
the compromise Of 1850, Stephens,
along with other prominent Southern
Wings, in 1882 withdrew his support
breaking up the Whig party in thu
South.
In 1866 Stephens was elected to the
United States Senate but was refused
a seat because of reconstruction con-
troversy. Then. in 1874. he succeeded
in joining the Lower House of Con-
gress, where he remained until 1882
resigning to become Governor oi
Georgia.
Stephens, having thus served his
country as best he knew how, died
in Atlanta in March, 1883. Always
in poor health, he never weighed over
80 pounds.

Eliminating Opponent.

We have noticed that a certain type
Of elimination play occurs frequently
and must be recognized when it puts in
an appearance. Unlike the usual
elimination play, where one or more
suits are completely removed from
both declarer's hand and dummy, the
type of play we have in mind consists
rather of eliminating one of the op-
ponents. To eliminate an opponent Is,
OF course, always desirable; but, tech
nically speaking, this is impossible,
and what we really mean 10 to prevent
said opponent from ever getting on
lead. The following hand illustrates:

South was eminently wise in choos-
ing five clubs as his final contract in
preference to three no trump. His re-
double was somewhat risky, but he rea-
soned that 1t was unlikely he could
be set more than one trick, and thus
1t was good gamble.
West opened the nine of spades.
Dummy and East both played low, and
declarer won the trick with the king.
The ace of clubs dropped East's single
ton queen, and three rounds of hearts
gave declarer discard Of one Of his
two remaining spades. He now paused
to reflect that West probably held both
the two remaining trumps. The i'm
mediate play of the 10 Of trumps would
force Vests king; but If he held one
more spade, he would put his partner
on lead and third round of spades
would allow West to make an addi-
tonal trump trick by an over-ruf with
the club nine.
Declarer thought he saw q chance
OF eliminating East from the proceed
mgs. He played the ace of diamonds
from the dummy, then followed with
the jack, and instead Of trumping, dis
carded his remaining spade. And that
was all there was to It, since East
could not get on lead and declarer
lost only one trump trick.

STATE

The super technicolor picture. "The Adventures of Robin Hood" the most exciting and entertaining picture of a lifetime, was viewed by capacity audiences attending the opening performances at Warner Brothers State theater yesterday.
 Starring Errol Flynn, veritable reincarnation of the legendary Robin, in the title role and play ing it perfectly, the film features Olivia de Havilland as his lady love, Maid Marian. Both stars are outstanding and they proved that medieval romance was even more thrilling than the modern variety.
 The glorious story of this bold knight who turned outlaw and with his merry band roamed Sherwood Forest way back in the days of old will be a never-to- forgotten ex- perience for local movie-g6ers.
 One thrill follows another as the picture depicts no end of battling with bows and arrows, quarter staffs, bikes and broadsWords, in- cluding particularly exciting duel between Robin and Sir Guy.

officials and help them to perform their duties in a most efficient man. ner" in the city government.
 More Suits Expected -
 But the statement fails to elabor- ate the first portion of the official communique, that part where it points to "the probable trial of many of those accused" This was taken to mean that the Good Government Association, whose officials recently conferred again with Hartford counsel on plans to enter suit against at least two of those named in the grand jury charges, will await the developments of probable trial of many of the accused" before in- stituting further civil suits against those alleged to have received large payments from the city.
 Then, too, there is the question of fees to George H. Cohen, of Cohen and Cohen, Hartford lawyers, who, currently, is the attorney appearing in the pending suit against former Controller Daniel J. Leary, which is for $500 900. The Good Government Association officials have failed to comment on the several legal opin- ions which make the city, not MT. Leary, liable" for all over-expendi- lures of appropriations during hls tenure if the claims are adjudged justifiable after scruting by the auditors, whose lawyer concurred Tn this opinion.
 Official Comment
 The statement reads as follows:
 "The charges brought by the Grand Jury and the probable trial of many of those accused do not by any means mark the end of the work of the Citizens Good Gov ernment Association. The mem- bers and staff of the jury have done a magnificent job but our work is just beginning. We believe that the public is deeply con- scious of the good work perform ed by the grand jury in their te- dious task of over ten weeks. We all should be truly grateful to them.
 Any guilty person should be punished and restitution made by any who have received illegal payments but the object of our Association is to develop and safe- guard good government in our city not only now, but over many years. Our plans to devise methods for the future are still in formative stage, but we are hard at work on them.
 Under any city administration and any form of city government, there is a place for permanent organization of citizens to watch the actions of their officials and help them to perform their duties in & most efficient manner. We believe that, with the support of good citizens of all parties, the Citizens Good Government Asso- citation can do this work to the permanent advantage of all tax payers and citizens of our city"
