HOWARD DEFENDS
C.L. 0. IN SPEECH
Says Peace Will Come When
Situation Is Understood by
All Labor GROUPS.

Charles P. Howard, president of the
International typographical Union
and secretary Of the Committee for
industrial Organization, expressed the
belief yesterday that peace will be
brought about in the organized labor
movement when every labor organi-
xation understands the whole stu
alton"
Addressing the Virginia -Carolinas
typographical Conference, which end
ed its seventeenth meeting at the
Warrington Hotel, Mr.. Howard gave
. detailed account Of the activities
Of the G. O., since its formation and
asserted:
IT the c I. O. did nothing more
than what it accomplished in con-
nection with the textile workers. its
formation will have been justified"
Rscounts Benefits.
He recounted the benefits derived
from the organization campaign of
the c. I. O.. and cited labor conditions
uncovered in some industries.
Mr.. Howard declared the division in
the ranks of labor was caused by the
Illegal action of the executive COM
ell OF the American Federation of
Labor in suspending 10 international
unions year and half ago.
The conference ended its session
yesterday afternoon with banquet at
which the following persons spoke:
John B. Dickman, sr., president of
Columbia Typographical Union, No.
10l; Public Printer A. E. Giegengack,
and Senator Reynolds of North Caro-
lima.
Wage-Hour Foes Assailed.
Several resolutions were adopted st
the closing business sessions. One
condemned the bloc of Southern SEN
ators and Representatives against the
wage and hour legislation and another
called on Congress TO restore the ap-
preparation recommended by the
Budget Bureau for the National Labor
Relations Board.
Senator Reynolds predicted the wage
and hour bill will be passed at this
session, pointing out that recently new
sentiment has developed in favor of
the measure. He traced the growth
OF relations between the Government
and labor.

The night against crime all over the

eitizenry remains indifferent, unin-
formed or hostile. The stirring of
public opinion to demand that GRIM
tnal activities be stamped out is per-
haps the most fundamental factor in
the whole problem"
Mr.. Cummings added:
"The subject presented covers a
vide range. 1t helps little to place
the blame upon any single factor.
Washington should be an ideal city
rom every andpoint-recreation
health, housing, police, prosecution,
courts. prisons.
The civic conscience cannot be
clear so long as slums nestle in the
shadow Of the Capitol.
Juvenile Delinquency.
And what of our juvenile delin-
quents? Since the turn of the century
juvenile courts have sprung up in
virtually every State in the Union. In
the District Of Columbia however we
still cling to what is little more than a
criminal court for children. We en-
ploy a medieval approach to juvenile
delinquency, and We do it to the
accompaniment of complaints, pleas.
tr1als, Juries. convictions and imprison-
ments. Such procedures are nothing
short of stupid.
1T is my belief that men in kew
positions in the District are alive to
these problems and are working
Vallantly toward their solution, but
We need more policemen, We need
more prosecutors, We need more Judges:
IN fact, our list Of needs is long one.
THE dockets of the courts, both
civil and criminal. are way behind, and
while strenuous efforts are being made
BY the United States attorney and
his staff to reduce the number of
pending cases, the fact remains that
We shall never catch up until addi-
tional personnel and judges are Sc
cured"
Penal System Here Hit.
Declaring the Capital has "a medi-
ocre penal system" the Attorney
General added that, although such
matters were outside the Jurisdiction
Of the Department of Justice, he was
suficiently interested to visit some
Of the institutions recently and to
submit suggestions for their improve
ment. He added:
The Jail is ancient and unsanitary.
The probation facilities In the District
are handicapped.
plete renovation of the organic laws
relating to the District. At the present
time the relationship between the
FEDERAL Government and the District
Is IN state of confusion. The penal
system is not integrated. Adequate
classification of prisoners is prac-
tlcauy impossible, and personnel
should be brought within civil service
requirements.
There is much to be done, but law
enforcement will not thrive 80 long
As the District is starving for funds.
A community never secures effective
law enforcement unless it not only
wants 1t, but demands it and has the
financial means of securing 1t.
The Washington Criminal ,Justice
Association has carved out for itself
Q tremendous task. but 1t is one 50
essential to the dignity and well-beine
Of the Nations Capital that no worthy

It is strange. But # happens so often
that It must be a response To something
basic IN human nature. In so-ealled hard
times. when many businessmen forlorn-
y complain that there is no business
other businessmen contriye to find busi-
ness and, what IS perhaps still more
astonishing, new enterprises put down
roots, get a healthy start. make sturdy
beginnings Of vigorous growth.
IS II that these business downs have
special purposes which many Of u.s.
blinded by easy success in more prosper
Gus periods. fail to see and Use?
The late Edward A. Filene, mer-
chant of Boston, Massachusetts, whose
thinking was never bounded by national
borders, once said: 4 have noticed that
business success tends to breed business
failure. Success often makes men con-
tented; lessons incentive. It is when peo-
pie are not doing very we'll with what
they already have that they are most
willing to listen to and try out new ideas
that may serve tbl7n.
4 certain cheWing-gum manufacturer,
a great believer in advertising, undertook
one of his impressive campaigns during a
time of severe business Stringency. He
doubled his appropriation. He reasoned
that with fewer advertisements seeking
reader attention, his own aggressive copy
would attract all the more notice; and
It worked out exactly that way.
Great industrial improvements have
been made, or initiated, in periods far
from prosperous. Charles E. Duryea. first

panics ever known. The basic work on the
first successful telephone was done by
Alexander Graham Bell in the early '70s,
when the United States was rocked by

this kind. great or small could be multi

Men who plan constructiyely now, may
find that these so-called troubled times,

POLICEMEN = ONE
KIND AND ANOTHER

On the front page Of this paper Fri
day were two stories dealing with police
activities.
One was from Los Angeles, where Dis
trlct Attorney Buron Fits pledged
far reaching investigation into high off
cial connections with the underworld as
result of the conviction of Earle L.
Kynette and Roy J. Allen, police spy
squad members, on charges of bombing
Private Detective Harry Raymond
One was from Chicago, where Patrol
man Ernest L. Keen. veteran of u years
in the Chicago police department. took
the day off to comfort his wife after he
laid trap in which his son-Chicago's
Phantom Bandit died in hail of
police bullets.
One dealt with all the filth and eorrup-
tlon that can exist in a police department
where officers place private gain and
political advantage above their oaths of
office, they sWore the same thing How
they regarded that oath has been told
in Los Angeles court room during
weary weeks of scandal
Keen deserves the admiration of all
men who hold their word in honor 1t is
more difficult 10 say what Kynette and
Allen deserve. Certainly ii is not admira-
ton.
Certainly Los Angeles needs the whole
sale house cleaning promised it by the
district attorney. If it did not, two men,
bers of the police department there could
not have done the things Kynette and
Allen did. Connivance of their superiors
was not absolutely necessary to their ac-
tivities, but at the very least there must
have been minimum of supervision.
Los Angeles needs cleaning up, unless
it wants to fall heir to the unenviable
reputation Chicago = home of Patrol
man Keen-had during the bootleg era.
