New York City (ILNS).-A group

A SPLENDID HELP FOR HOUSING

Speaking at the Institute of Public
Affairs at the University of Virginia
Nathan Straus, administrator of the
United States Housing Authority
wanted to know why public housing
should not abolish slums, even as
public schools had pretty well abol-
ished illiteracy. And do you know,
there is no other question that will
give more trouble to the enemies of
public housing than this.
Mr.. Straus gave 10 benefits which
the country would draw from public
housing. We shall quote here only
six: better housing, lower cost hous-
ing, more of it, stabilized values,
more employment and better health
and morals. The first five speak for
themselves. But if there is anything
that social students feel sure of to-
day, it is the sixth. Slums breed
both crime and sickness; and in every
city where better housing has been
tried, crime and sickness have gone
down.
"There is, in my belief" says Mr..
Straus, "no single, ready-made cure
for all our troubles. Public housing
by itself can no more do away utterly
with crime or unemployment than it
can eliminate reckless driving. But
it will help to decrease many types
of crime, and it will help to provide
new employment Although not the
sole means of attacking our economic
ills, it is an extremely important and
effective instrument for building the
great road of social progress"

scured by the name-calling and ma

Pinning label on your opponent
| is much easier than proving him
wrong. That's why it's so popular.
For a time, it may get great ap-
plause from the emotional and un-
thinking. But if it is continued, it
soon loses force. The politicians are
apt to forget this and go on seeking
to lump their opponents under oppro-
brious terms and names which from
too constant use have come to mean
little.
There are times when fortnight
denunciation of enemies of the people,
accompanied by bill of particulars,
is in order. Such denunciation,
though, is most effective when
"smear" terms are used sparingly.
John G. Winant, American director
of the International Labor Office, did
his bit to impress the workers of the
world with the Importance of reduc-
ing armaments, at the recent Inter
national Labor Conference at Geneva.
He emphasized this theme in his an
nual report and in speeches before
| the conference. He again touched
upon it in his closing address, in
which he said that despite troubled
times, the spirit of the conference had
been one of hope.
His words have application to Amer
lea, as we'll as to the rest of the world
since we, too, have shouldered a bur-
den of armament and war preparation
/ Winant said that the decision of the
conference to postpone action on the
40-hour week might have disheart-
ened a less tried body if it had no1
been for the realism and the tenacity
of purpose which will continue to
place this issue in the forefront of al
social advance. He also promised
that the reduction of hours of work
would continue to be given consid

they can look forward not only to re

surpluses of the necessaries of lif
when income now devoted to nationa
defense may be utilized for a NOR,

Name-calling at Washington and
elsewhere doesn't get the big hand
it once did.
"Tory," economic royalist," and
similar "smear" terms are losing their
appeal
Public is firing of name-calling,
whether from Washington or Wall
Street. Childish yells of you're an
other" from grown men bring only
boredom. Something more than name
calling is needed to remedy our trou-
bles, the people now realize.
Name-calling has never been a sub
stitute for thinking. 1t saves wear
and tear on the brain but that's about
all that can be said for it.
If there had been less name-calling
and more effort at cooperation of all
elements in the national life, the
United States would in all probability
be in better shape today.
The name-calling aroused bitter
antagonism, which led to useless re-
ordinations and retarded co-opera-
ton.
New Dealers and their journalistic
and other champions started the ball
rolling by trying to pin various labels
on their critics and opponents.
The anti-New Dealers retorted in
kind, working hard to attach the label

the administration boys.
The result was that issues were OBJ

SET y YEARS AGO
Resolutions Urging Labor Peace And
f. ID. r. Third Term Studied
By Delegates.
(Hy Ohio Labor News service)

of Labor, state branch of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor, which con-
vened here Monday, July II, in the
National Guard Armory, faced week
of hard and important work before
returning to their homes Friday.
Triennial election of officers, solu-
tion of problems and establishment of
policy for the federation in the coming

of affiliated unions was responsible
for the seating of more delegates in
this convention than in any other of
the federation's 55-year history

Cincinnati in 1917, record which has
stood until now BY Monday evening,
with the deadline for presentation of

delegates had been seated in this con-
vention, indicating that there would
be approximately 500 representatives
of A. F. of L. unions in Ohio partici-
pating in the business of the conclave.

COMMENT ON WORLD EVENTS

lied as quickly as possible in the in
terests of "peace and freedom
That the Swiss Federation of Labor
is standing solid with the federal gov
ernment in the latter's efforts to make
the little Alpine country safe against
aggression from either Germany OF
Italy is evident from an account of a
recent meeting of the federation's
general council in Berne.
In addressing the members of the
council, President Max Weber said
that the people of Switzerland knew
that the treaties and promises of die
tators were worthless and that they
could, in the last resort, only rely on
themselves. 1t was, therefore, he said
completely incomprehensible to them
that there could still be people in
other countries who thought that
something could be attained by means
of international conferences.
"The National Trade Union Cen.
ter" he added, will not take part IL
such efforts. Every appearance o.
defeatism must be nipped in the bud
and there must be no feeling tina
we cannot do anything or that W.
must let events take their course"
A resolution adopted by the meet
ing stated that the latest events pro
vided confirmation of the fact tha
"the peoples right of self-determina
tion was only a pretext for imperi
alist aims, and that today bruta
power-p politics have triumphed" TIL
general council instructed the eX
ecutive to continue the campaign fo
'the protection of the independents
and freedom of our country, whic
aims at strengthening the will fo
defense, and urges all trade union
to give this campaign every possibl
support"

Unfortunate experiences in the past
with the so-called Russian trade
unions, which are controlled by the
Communist dictatorship, undoubtedly
governed the decision of the recent
International Federation of Trade
Unions congress to reject the British
resolution calling for renewal of the
membership invitation to the Soviet
unions"
Although the resolutions sponsors
tried to win support on the ground
that international labor unity was a
vital necessity at the present time
and that the invitation would be in
line with the spirit of the proposed
Anglo French Soviet alliance, only
the British, French, Norwegian and
Mexican delegates voted for 1T. The
vote was pretty good indication Of
the strong feeling against the pro-
posal.
The opposition was led by the
American, Dutch and Belgium dele
gates and the American Federation
of Labor's II votes finally proved the
deciding factor.
The congress made its position un.
mistakably plain by also adopting 9
resolution proposed by Robert j
Watt, American delegate, conforming
to the decision taken by the Inter
national Federation's General Council
when it broke off negotiations will
the Russians last year. Only th'
Mexican delegates voted against th'
resolution. The French and Nor
wegians lodged the issue by abstain
ing from voting.
Other resolutions adopted by tn
congress included one condemning tn
aggressions of the totalitarian coun
tries and expressed the hope the An
