Thus far in the fall, he said, con-
struction of new homes was con-

nearly 20 per cent in the number of
new homes to be built under Fed

period year ago, Mr.. Mcdonald
said.
At the same time, Secretary of

and 19 per cent above the October,

and rock that came tumbling down.
The pair had been buried more
than six hours before the anxiety of
Mr.. Kuntis' widowed mother over
her sons long absence sent other
miners to investigate.
Rescue crews formed quickly and
tunneled furiously. Tents were
pitched and campfires lighted.
Spotlights played balefully on flying
shovels.
Four hours later the two bodies
were found in heap of debris and

HUNTINGTON, w. Va, Nov. 25.-
Spectacular raids by eight "rebel'
policemen operating without orders
and on their own time today clamp
ed the lid on vice in West Virginia's
largest city.
State police, sheriff's deputies and
liquor commission agents for nearly
= month have tried to clean up the
city without help of police, but not
until the self-appointed vice squad
revolted against lack of leader
ship did gambling halls, unlicensed
saloons and handbook establish
ments bar their doors.
State enforcement authorities
stepped in when the city law and
order crew of 80 failed to act on
protests from the Ministerial Asso-
citation and other civic bodies that
the town of 10000 was running wide
open. Fifty-nine raids brought
about arrest of 139 persons.
Eight Rebels" Act.
But this fell short of suppressing
operation of illegal enterprises, so
after walking their beats one day
this week, the eight rebel" patrol
men took matters into their own
hands and climaXed the crusade
with sudden drives on six establish
mentS. jailing 118 persons for illegal
sale of liquor.
Spokesman Ted Rifle declared
the vice war would continue ION our
own time no matter what the heads
OF the department say" adding this
action of ours amounts to rebellion
against the policies that have been
pursued by city administrators in
failing to direct raids which we have
long demanded. We have decided
to end the humiliation and embar-
rassment which has come to this
department because of lack of lead
ership."
Democratic Mayor George R. Sea-
monds and Police Chief Lon H.
Whitten refused comment on raid
ing by the policemen, but yesterday
In the wake of another foray by
deputy sheriffs on newsstand
whose proprietor was accused of
selling obscene magazines, Chief
Whitten reorganized his vice squad
and placed on it two of the rebel
lious patrolmen.
Others Under Civil Service.
Harry Farris and Cecil Kessick,
who got the new assignments, said
after conferring with the police chief
that they were not reprimanded for
the unauthorized raiding. Others
of the eight still are walking beats.
They are under civil service.
While State authorities were
striking at vice, Mayor Seamonds,
protesting city police had not been
informed, declared it was politics"
District Attorney E. E. Winters, jr.,
replied, II see nothing of a political
nature in making the city a decent
place to live in"
Mr.. Winters said the raids were
the elimination of numerous COM
plants which began more than a
year ago. Common Pleas Judge H. |
Clay Warth repeatedly has scored
open operation of bootleg joints and
gambling houses in charging grand
Juries, but insufficient evidence was
given as cause of inability to act.

Women's Christian Temperance
Union and Good Government Asso-
ciation pooled funds to bring in a
private investigation nine weeks ago. |
When all the evidence was at hand, |
the State law enforcement agencies
went into action. Ditto the rebel

The Executive Committee has been
the sore spot in the ANB. Originally
created to speed up business and put
important decisions in the hands of
men who have been tried as Grand
Presidents. il was changed in 1886
at Metlakatla Convention so as to
make it an elective body consisting
OF three Past Grand Presidents and
three from the rank and file, with
a further provision that half of the
six should serve for one year and
the other three. for two years. SO as
to make three elective in alternate
years.

any of these means, that nothing
but an actual meeting at one place
should be considered legal. This
point was not decided and the ex-

Now comes the provision that in
order to do business four of the
committees often shall be consider

AMENDMENTS TO NATIONAL LABOR
RELATIONS ACT

THE organized labor movement has as its goal
freedom and democratic opportunity for those
who work for wages. AS individuals those who
work for others are helpless to get square deal
at work. Employers are in strategic position OF
power over those for whom they provide work Op-
portunities-unless workers unite for collective
action. This first step toward freedom for Labor
and those democratic opportunities necessary Tor
human progress is the right to organize IN unions
controlled by their members in accord with demo-
cratic principles. Collective action Of those con-
ce1ned also goes back to oldest practices OF free
people. Furthermore the records OF what unions
have attempted to secure for their membership
have constituted foundation of essential human
welfare. The purposes and procedures Of self-con-
trolled unions are such that Society can we'll Spon-
sor unions essential national institution.
This is what Congress undertook to Go through
the National Labor Relations Act Of which Sena-
tor Wagner was the SPONSOR This Act wisely as
sures workers of this country the right to mem
berShip in unions of their own choosing that they
may bargain collectively to determine the terms
and conditions under which they work. Collective
bargaining assures opportunity for free contract
with the employer
Unfortunately in building up the staff for ad-
ministering this law some who were not real
friends Of unions but who saw in unions q chance
to advance their own social views were included
These persons not interested in assuring a
right for unions but in advancing their own con-
cepts and propaganda. Such persons in key posi-
tOnS who did not know the feeling or the ways OF
the labor movement interfered with the develop
ment of Il democratically controlled labor move
ment corresponding to the needs of work Sltua-
tions. The labor movement must grow out OF eX-
listing needs and situations. 1T does not lend ltSell
to artificial patterns. To remedy such administra
tive difficulties, the American Federation OF La
Dor proposes amendments defining procedures nee
essary to administrative equity.
