GREEN'S GOVERNORSHIP
CHOICE is OPPOSED
BY CENTRAL BODY

San Francisco (ILNS) The Cen
tral Labor Council, after a three
hours debate, accepted Culbert l.. Oh
son as it's choice for governor and de-
clared opposition to Governor Frank
Merriam, who has been endorsed by
William Green.
The council, said to represent 100,-
600 A. F. of L. unionists, voted 100 to
SO for Olson and asked to know the
names of many officials of interna-
tional unions in California" who,
Green said, had requested him to an
nounce his support of Merriam, the in
cumbent Republican nominee.
Green's opposition to Olson, the
council said, 'is not the expression of
the overwhelming majority of the
trade unionists in San Francisco"

LaFOllette Committee
Agents Investigate Calf.
Vigilante Movement

Washington, D. c. (ILNS) S).-Seven
agents Of the LaFollette Committee
on Civil Liberties have gone to Cali
fornia to open an investigation of
what has been held for years to be one
of the most dangerous vigilante move
ments in the nation This is a move
ment centering in the Associated
Farmers, said to be controlled entirely
by the larger land owners, and to re-
ceive contributions from the railroads
and privately owned utilities of that
region.
Many articles have been written in
the more liberal magazines, saying
that the tenant farmers of the South
are no worse used than most of the
agricultural laborers in the great
semi-tropical fruit and vegetable belt
Of California. The season of top en-
ployment in each kind of product is
short; and migratory population has
grown up. This will be the first
chance to get an unbiased view of the
situation.

Bond Issues

There will be two important bond
issues before the voters Of Hamilton
at the election next Tuesday. One of
the bond issues is for new schools and
many improvements which are abso-
lutely necessary. The schools are
crowded and more rooms are needed.
The other proposed bond issue is for
sanitary sewers. Hamilton has long
been in need of more sanitary sewers
to take care of drainage problems.
At many elections bond issues have
been proposed and voted down because
some people are always against and
opposed to more taxes. Every time
bond issues for improvements are
voted down, labor is eliminated. Or
ganized labor in Hamilton should vote
YES" for both of these bonds.
The Butler County Press urges all
trades unionists to work and vote for
the bond issues.

6. The amendment establishes a PEN
sion system for all judges in Ohio
and sets precedent for pensioning
all public officials. This would cast
an unconscionable added tax burden
upon the people of Ohio.
Z. The "real" selection of judges by
this appointment system is made by
a self -perpetuating group not an
swerable to the citizens of Ohio.
Every citizen of Ohio interested in
the fundamental principles
of long established American liberty
and justice should vote mo" on this
question and raise his voice in protest
against this undemocratic proposal.

VOTE NO!
Argument In Opposition To Proposed
Amendment To Adopt The Appoint
ment Method Of Selecting Judges.

Citizens Of Ohio who are interested
in preserving the democratic prin-
ciples of government should Wig
orously oppose this amendment to the
Constitution of Ohio providing for ap-
pointment instead of election of the
judges of this state.
The democratic American way of
selecting judges is by election as now
provided in the Constitution of Ohio.
The autocratic, Fascist way is by ap-
pointment, such as proposed in this
amendment.
Only through maintaining and ex-
ercising the elective power vested in
them by the Constitution can the
people Of Ohio hope to retain control
of their government and their courts.
Furthermore, a mo" vote should be
cast against this proposed amendment
for these reasons:
/. Ohio tried this antiquated system
of appointing judges for 40 years
and discarded it in 1851 after Civ
ing it fair trial.
2. Appointment of judges is reac-
tionary step definitely removing
power from the people in their
choice Of officials.
3. Large influential law firms repre-
senting vested and selfish interests
will dominate behind closed door"
appointments, and "politics" will
not be removed in making judicial
appointments.
4. The elected judiciary is the sole re-
naming branch of free government
now dependent upon popular vote
of the people.
5. Dictatorship is solely dependent on
controlled" judiciary as exempli-
fed by the present-day European
relationships.
