IS IT THE FAIR
OR CALIFORNIA?
i. tSanta Barbara NeWs-Press)

While the San Francisco fair is not
drawing the number of tourists it hoped
to attract it is far ahead of the New York
fair in expected attendance. All of which
is causing some serious thoughts as to
the value of huge eXpositions.
New York. for example, went into debt
S34 100000 for its fair which is three and
four-tenths more than the cost Of the
Chicago fair in 1888. Within 500 miles
of New York there is population of
approximately %, ,0O0,O from which to
draw. Yet. in spite of all this, the at
tendance is behind the mark set at Chi
cago in the depths of the depression
years.
When the king and queen of England
visited the New York fair officials eN-
pected a million persons to attend The
actual count was $4,000, few thousand
less than attended the Saturday before
when there was no particular attraction.
Coney Island is said to be drawing
greater daily attendance. There are re-
ports the fair is in for $40, 100000 loss
this year.
San Francisco is showing much bet
ter record than this simply because the
investment is not nearly as large. Also,
in California the far can operate the en-
tire y months. which means daily at
tendance does not have to be compara-
lively as high
At the best these fairs are artificial
when we realize that California, in
way, is a permanent worlds fair Of its
own. There is not person in the east
and middle west who does not possess a
desire to see and visit this great state.
Sooner or later most Of these persons full
fill their desire.
The point to be made is that fair,
based on commercial attractions, Is not
what the people who visit us really want
to see This is emphasized in the tourist
figures just released which show that for
the first six months of this year 572,2l5
out-of-state tourists visited California as
against 524,375 for the same period in
1888 This is only a nine per cent in
crease which can be credited to the fair.

Willis Thornton's Editorial on:
We Expect Much, But We Give Little

In Germany, everyone puts III
certain time at the service OF the
state. Spain has now instituted
such a regime-15 days a year, hot
or cold. Countries of that stripe afe
insisting on a levy of public SER
vice, or service to the general IN
terest of all.
We don't want that here. The
democratic way is to accept volun-
tary service to the republic in mat
ters of general interest. That's what
the word republic means. 1t derives
from res publicae, Latin for the
public business
Yet for this public business, the
average American has no time, not
even the time to be well informed
about it. His only interest usually
is to squawk about how it is done
by those who do take an interest
If you doubt it, just try organizing
a committee among your friends
for some public purpose, and see
how many will actually lend an
active hand. Yet the very genius
of democracy is the voluntary ac-
ceptance of these duties and tasks'
It is when they are not accepted
that man comes riding along on
horseback and says, "Okay, boys!
Now I'LL do it,

Bruce Cation in WASHINGTON
Dissects the News

WASHINGTON. = One of the
most unsual company union cases
the National Labor Relations Board
has ever tangled with is moving
toward its conclusion, with a group
of est coast lumber companies
drawing up briefs and preparing
oral arguments against a sweep
ing decision just handed down by
the board. Under the procedure
being followed, final order, put
ting the decision into effect, may
not be issued until these briefs and
arguments have been presented.
In this case, union claiming
members in number of different
states and employed by several
different companies is held to be
an employer dominated organi-
zation of the company union type.
Three lumber companies are or
dered to break off relations with
this union, to ignore all provisions
of contracts signed with it, and to
reimburse their employees for dues
paid into the union treasury via
the check-off since July S, 1895.
A trade association of lumber
firms is also ordered to igrore pro-
visions of any contracts it may
have signed with the union.
The union involved is the In
dustrial Employees Union, Inc,
which claims some $4,000 members
in Washington, Oregon, Idaho, and
adjoining states. 1t is an out
growth of World War "solidar-
ity" organization, sponsored by the
War Department in 1917 and 1918
as a means of combating "Wob-
bly, sentiment in the west coast
lumber camps and insuring full
fillment of the departments war
supply program.
According to the Labor Boards
record, the organization was orig
inally formed under the name of
the Loyal Legion of Loggers and
Lumbermen. During the war, both
employers and employees had to
belong to it; at its peak, it num-
bered $4,000 members.

drew from the scene after the arm

THE WAY OF u. S. BUREAUS
{ Alameda Times-Star)


Up at Marysville fruit growers and
members of labor organization had a
little rukus 1t wasn't an affair that was
particularly out of the ordinary, and
the county authorities demonstrated
ability to keep it under control. But
more than the ordinary amount of noise
was made about it. Strikers gave voice
of persecution. Right or wrong, the gov
ernor's office jumped into the fuss. That
made news and the federal government
hoped into it with both feet. In fact,
Secretary Wallace practically unloaded
his office force onto the community. Sat
urday 55 officials, including Under Sec
retary NJ. L. Wilson, swooped down on
the little city of Marysville in what
might be termed a wholesale probing
party.
Think of it a moment. Fifty-five fed
eral and state officers, 25 of whom were
from Washington, giving themselves or
ders to take trip into the country, os-
tensibly, to tell its elected officers what
their duties are. But the actual reason
for this wholesale invasion of the COM
munity is that the country is SO cluttered
with men on the public payroll that ac-
tiyity must be shown to Justify their pay
checks. If there is any other excuse for
an assignment of a platoon of 80 men
to investigate the dispute at Marysville
We'll be happy to be informed of it.
Imperial Valley press., 1939-08-09

iStice, its members decided To keep
it alive and, III the fall OF 1919, it
was incorporated under the laws OF
Oregon.
The Loyal Legion continued TO
exist until April, 1887. It's board
of directors was made up equally
of employer and employees repre-
sentatives. 1t received dues of 25
cents a month from employe men,
bers; employer paid 25 cents a
month for each of their employees
who were members. 1t functioned
to adjust wage and hour scales,
handle grievances, and, in general,
conduct labor relations in various
lumber camps and mills.
When the Supreme Court up
held the Wagner Act, the legion's
board of directors met and voted
to change it into a strictly employe
organization The Industrial En-
ployeS' Union was set up to take
its place and the employers with
drew, forming the Willamette Val
ley Lumber Operators Association
The association signed contracts
with the union; so did three lum-
ber companies-the McGoldrick
Lumber Co of Spokane, the C. D.
Johnson Lumber Corporation of
Portland. and Potlatoh Forests,
Inc, of Lewiston, Idaho.
Dues were collected via the
check-off. In some cases member
ship in the union was made a con-
dition of employment, and in
others it was strongly urged by
the employers.
Into this situation entered an
old-line A. F. of L. union, the
Lumber and SaWmill Workers
Union. After various collisions, this
union filed charges with the Labor
Board. A series of hearings follow
ed, and the order referred to was
the result.
In Portland, A. D. Chisholm,
president of the Industrial EN-
ployes' union, declares his union
is perfectly valid bargaining
agency as defined in the Wagner
Act, and announces it will ignore
the boards order.

IS A CONSPIRACY?

Harry Bridges defense attorneys are
attempting to prove that conspiracy
exists to deport Bridges to Australia
as an undesirable alien who advocates
overthrow of the government by force
and violence. The American Legion, the
Associated Farmers. various police de-
partments and even representatives of
the federal government have been charg-
ed by the Bridges henchmen with being
members of the conspiracy. The charge
gives rise to the questions. What is a
conspiracy? Can person conspire to
uphold the law?

CONGRESS DEFINES
AGRICULTURAL LABOR

1t Will be interesting to learn if the
National Labor Relations Board. itself
created by congress, will again try to
pefVert an act Of congress to serve its
own purposes
When congress passed the Social Sc
curity Act and the Wagner Labor Rela-
tlons Act it exempted agricultural la
borers' from the provisions of both acts.
1t neglected to define what agricultural
laborers were, however, and both the
Social Security administration and the
National Labor Relations Board took
advantage of the oversight to enforce
their own interpretations
The Social Security administration
ruled that packing shed employees. such
as those employed in Imperial Valley
cantaloupe and lettuce sheds. were not
agricultural laborers", but were indus
trial laborers. As such, the administra-
tion decided, they We're subject to social
security taxes
The National Labor Relations Board
ruled the same way, and attempted to
force upon packing shed employers COM
pliance with drastic terms of the Wagner
Act The sole aim of the NLRB, it ap-
peared to many, was to give the ClO
an entering wedge for the purpose of
organizing all agricultural laborers into
industrial unions which might continual
ly harass the farmer.
To those who exercised common sense,
il was difficult to class shed laborers as
anything but agricultural laborers. The
intention OF congress, they argued, was
TO exempt agricultural laborers because
they are a migratory class and because
unionization trouble among them might
very we'll bankrupt the farmers who must
harvest and ship their crops quickly. A
factory can close down without loss of
anything more than time and orders, if
its employees strike If the employees Of
farmer strike, his entire years work is
lost, because the harvest represents his
years work
Now congress, evidently irked by the
false Interpretation put upon its acts by
the administration agencies, has declared
in clear, concise form that packing shed
employees are in reality agricultural la
borers
The National Labor Relations Board
still has an out. The definition was in
cluded in an amendment to the social
security act. The Wagner Act, presum-
ably, still stands as originally passed.
The social security act, in other words,
defines agricultural laborers, the Wagner
Act does not.
Will the National Labor Relations
board try to take refuge in the excuse
that the act under which it operates is
vague in this respect, or will it admit
that congress meant to exempt packing
shed laborers from terms of the Wagner
Act, as well as the social security act?
If the labor board operates in good
faith, it will recognize the social security
act amendment as applying equally to
the Wagner Act. If it does not operate
in good faith, long court fight is in
prospect to prove that one federal law
defining agricultural laborers should be
applicable in another similar circum-
c,fa

Famous Sayings

We expect a great deal from gov
ernment. We expect it to maintain
order, to protect our property, to
maintain friendly yet advantageous
relations with other countries. We
expect it to feed us if we're broke.
to provide work for us If we're job
less, to save our business from bank
ruptcy with timely loans, to pro-
mote in general better conditions
of life.
We expect all those things and
a lot more. What do We give? Well,
we give the taxes We pay conscious
ly or unconsciously, and we vote
(some of us) every year or so. AT
election time, We may even give a
few moments to reading the papers
or listening to speeches to find out
what goes on in public affairs.
BY and large, most people con-
tribute no direct time or effort to
making democratic government
work. Such contribution as We do
make is usually confined to criti-
cism of those who are giving their
time to make it work, whom we
lump under the name of "polltl-
clans"
In fact, the pitifully small atten-
tion given by the average person
to public matters is well shown by
a recent survey made by two Har-
yard professors. Their findings are
shown in an article, Where Does
Your Day Co." in EveryWeek Mag
azine. They arranged for 103 per-
sons to record in detail how they
spent the l440 minutes of each
day. So much for sleep tabout eight
hours and "a minutes, by the way,
so much for eating, working, trans
portation, and so on.
And the amount of time devoted
to civic and political activities was
found to be no more than it takes
