With regard to the growing inter-

"Great activity is shown among the

be stopped" Mr.. Padway says.
Legal Fight On "Shark"
"For long time," Mr.. Padway
says, "there have existed large
number of loan sharks in Minnesota
who preyed upon poor and necessitous
borrowers by charging them interest
on small loans at rates ranging from
120 per cent to 1000 per cent. AL
though general laws prohibiting usury
existed in Minnesota, they were inn
possible to enforce because of the hid
den practices engaged in by the loan
sharks"
He goes on to tell how the county
attorney of Hennepin county, backed
by the attorney general, began suit
in the name Of the state against the
Metro Loan Company, asking an in
junction against the concern and the
appointment of receiver to take pos
session Of its business and assets. The
court found that charges against the
company were justified, granted al
injunction and appointed receiver
The company appealed to the Su
preme court.

in conjunction with the State Fedora
ton of Labor asked that the Supreme

stressing the injury to the public wei

the activities and practices" Of loal
sharkery, such as revealed in tn
Metro Company case.
"The business Of the loan sharks,
the brief contended, Cannot be op
Grated successfully without many ant
devious methods of deceit, evasions

The Supreme court upheld the low

Miners In Demand
Miners are being sought every
where, the report asserts. 1t goes on
to say:
"Miners are being sought every
where. Any one who has worked in
a mine for only year is being taken
for mining. Production is said to
have risen recently, but only owing to
the new workers taken on and the
cessation of all subsidiary work. Out
put per head has on the whole not
risen.
at is reported that the workers in
many armament works have ap-
preached the management with re-
quests for cheap bacon and lard, on
the same lines as the miners, but that
these requests have been unsuccessful,
"Workcrs in large firm in West
ern Germany had to put in overtime
on the western Notifications. They
demanded overtime payment, but this
was refused by the management. The
workers then lodged a complaint and
the management called in the Gestapo
to quell the ensuing disturbance,
Seven of the leaders were arrested and
have not yet been released"

AMERICAN REACTIONARIES

Our difficulties are the special diff
ficulties attending a stage of develop
ment no other country has reached
The American reactionaries are not
those who look to our revolutionary
past for guide-posts for the revolu-
tionary present; the principles of
growth that hurried us from the
horse and buggy age into the auto
mobile age while we were digesting
millions of aliens from everywhere
are more likely to stand the strain of
another transition than any borrowed
principles. The reactionaries are
those who look abroad and imagine
that Old World systems, fascism, COM
munism, even tradition bound democ-
racy, offer anything to help us. The
worse Of these systems go back to
where we never were; the best are in
the process of catching up.-Anne
O'Hare Mccormick, in the New York
Times.

ifesto read, examined the extremely
grave situation in Europe, especially
that arising out Of the astonishing and
reprehensible action Of Soviet Russia
in secretly concluding a pact with Nazi
Germany, which she had always stig-
matized as the implacable enemy of
freedom and democracy.
"Today as ever the l. F. 7. U. en-
phasizes that war does not provide
any real settlement of the differences
between nations. For this reason the
|. F. T. U. declares that an equitable
solution of the problems upon which
the peaceful economic life Of all the
nations depends, can still be found by
means of a conference of all States
held in an atmosphere of good will.
GAS at all times, the l. F. T. U. is
prepared to use every means in its
power to obtain in this spirit an hon
orable settlement of outstanding diff
ferences. The l. F. T. U. therefore wei.
comes the appeals which have beer
made in this last decisive moment, tc
both peoples and statesmen, to avoic
the imminent catastrophe which threat
ems to engulf humanity.
"It endorses these appeals with al
it's force, in the conviction that the
workers will regard it as their para
mount duty to support to the utter
most these supreme efforts to save
peace and the independence of the
peoples.
Freedom Defined
"It is convinced that the workers o.
all countries, including those of Ger
many and Italy, from which countrie!
the present danger Of war emanates
desire peace through the fraternal col
laboration of all nations
"The l. F. T. U. attests it's warn
admiration for the courageous effort
of President Roosevelt, resolutely sup
ported by American labor, and count
on the continuance of these endeavor
to preserve peace.
"Just as emphatically the Executive
Of the l. F. Il. U. declares that if thes
efforts of the democratic peoples shoul'
fail and, in spite of all, the dictator
ship States should attempt by mean
Of brutal force to put into execution
their plans of domination, and 81
plunge the world into war, the peopl
and especially the organized worker
will have no alternative but to defen'
| by all means in their power their lib
critics and national independence.
"In this spirit, the Executive Of tn
l. +. r. U. welcomes the resolute an,
courageous stand taken by the Brit
ish and French Labor Movement
which, in face of these dangers, hav
affirmed their complete solidarity. Tn
|. F. T. U. declares that in the will 0
the democratic peoples to stand to
gether, united and determined to de
fend their liberties, lies the final hop
of saving peace"
