He attacked bills proposed by.
Reps. Glare Hoffman, r., Mich,
and c.. Arthur Anderson, D., Mo,
which would radically change the
act to separate the administrative
and quasi judicial functions of the
labor board.
Wagner testified as congression-
al leaders expressed doubt that
action could be completed on labor
act amendments at this session.
Under the two house proposals,
Wagner asserted, ''the employer
would be entirely free to meet or
talk to the strikers representatives
and to destroy their organization
by methods of coercion and init
midation.
mo amendment could have more
unfortunate results. When congress
included strikers within the defi-
milton of "employe' for the pur-
poses of this act, it, did not create
new status or invest them with
new rights. 1t merely followed the
common sense rule that a strike
was the very time when fair play
and collective bargaining became
most critically necessary to restore
peace. To nullify the labor act
when a strike starts would be like
turning off the water hose when
fire breaks out.
This rule that a strike or lock-
out does not terminate the en-
ployment relationship was estab-
lished by our courts long before
the labor act was passed And the
American law institute in its re-
statement of labor law, has given
this principle its stamp OF APP
prevail

the development of manganese
properties and the purchase of man
ganese ore, as reserves in case of
war.
Delegate Leary of the Miners
Union explained this matter very
and thoroughly. He said the
Union had already approved
the measures. The delegate criti-
the action Of the United States
Steel using South American man
ganese and also in buying mangan-
csc from Russia. He explained that
this manganese could be purchased
from Russia far cheaper than it could
be mined in this country. Delegate
Leary referred to the manganese
that was being mined at Philipsburg
and said that very little of it was
being used in steel products. Should
Congress act favorably on the two
measures, it would be the means of
putting 1000 men to work in Mon
tana. The council went on record to
support the bills and instructed Sec.
Kennedy to wire our national repre-
sentatives and members of the COM
mittee.
Secretary Kennedy was instructed
to notify congressman and senator's
that the council had gone on record
as endorsing a member Of the Tech
nical Engineers Union to take the
place of Herb Fay, former chief en-
gineer for the WPA.

Testimony of Sam Spiegel in Sup
port of the Miners and Shelter
mems Proposed Silicosis Com
pensati0n Bill, House
Bill 1870
l am very much interested in
legislation recognizing silicosis as an
occupational hazard and compens-
able under the proposed amend
ments to the Compensation Act, as
I have introduced legislation of this
nature at several sessions.
You are no doubt familiar by now
with the provisions Of the bill re-
lating to apportionment of costs to
various employers. All employers
claim that their properties are free
of dust and consequently there is no
way for men to contract the disease,
This same assertion is undoubtedly
being made by mine owners in all
states where legislation of this sort
is being proposed. Then why are
they fearful of the results if this bill
is enacted into law? Certainly, il
there is no silicosis being contracted
at the present time, or since 1923
in their properties, they have moth
ing to fear. If a claim is made
against the company for compensa-
ton resulting from an injury OF
death by ~silicosis, they can appea.
to the state board for a reapportion-
ment of costs, and in this appeal
they can show that their company i!
not to blame, due to the absence o.
dust, or an abundance of pure air il
their properties. 1t is instantly
apparent that there will be little o.
no costs brought against the com.
panies which show this condition.
The final result will be tina.
mining companies will endeavor t
relieve conditions to such an extent
that this dread disease will be even
tually stamped out. In any case, j
the bill will accomplish this desired
purpose, it is good legislation anC
should be passed.
The claim of unconstitutionality o
the bill is not one for the committe,
to determine. If it were part Of theil
duties, there would be no necessit!
for a supreme court.
The report of the commission tt
study the disease has been touched
on with the undoubted purpose o
using it as an authority on the alb
sence of silicosis, but nothing ha
been said regarding the hamstring
ing of this commission by withdraw
ing the appropriation given it at tn,
last session. That commission, Oh
account of lack of funds, made n,
exhaustive study of the matter.
The same arguments have beel
used from time to time relative Il
holes in this proposed bill and in
ability to make them function prop
erly. This plan has worked effec
lively in as much as these measure
have been killed at two previou
sessions. 1t is hoped that the presen
committee will not be SO gullible a
to swallow all of the argument Of tn
opponents without a grain of salt.

By L. c. Copes

Sundays worship periods were en-
joyed by all and were we'll attended.
Our Presiding Elder, Rev. T. B.
Stovall, spoke beautifully at the morn
ing and evening worship period. Rev.
Wilson delivered most powerful COM
munion sermon using as text,
Hebrews l0:5 and as a subject: What
price redemption, Jesus paid the price
for our redemption"
The Sabbath School had a splendid
lesson study and an aqually splendid
program.
Monday evening, June 18th, was our
4th and last quaterly Conference of the
current Church year. The Presiding
Elder was, as per usual, paid in full
and the reports were good. We sim
cerely do hope that each and every
one will do his part toward our having
,, splendid report for the Annual Con-
ference which convenes in our city the
first week in September with Sister
Church, ST. Peters, acting as host.
Let's look forward to Sunday
periods of worship which finds Rev,
Reddick delivering the morning and
evening sermons and Rev. Albert con-
/ Quoting his Bible Study Class with the
help of our new Bibles. Rev. Albert
| is looking forward to large class
Let's do all within our power to at
tend Rev. Albert's class. Let's not
! forget the Sabbath School which
some people consider for children only,
but how mistaken they are; for the
Sabbath School is designed to help the
| old as we'll as the young. The little
folks would enjoy having you in their
classes. You parents might enjoy sit
ting in the class in which your sons
and daughters belong. 1t would be
lot of fun to say nothing of what
you might acquire in the way OF Bib
lca1 knowledge, for you see the les
sons are most interesting and easily
! interpreted. Well be looking forward
to seeing you around GAS a. m. or
; 1000 or later if it will be to your
| convenience, but by all means attend.
We wish to express our gratitude to
Elder Wilson, His choir, and mem
bers of his church, also to visitors from
the neighboring houses of worship.
See you Sunday!
