Representative Ludlow
Asks For A War Vote

Washington, D. C. (ILNS). - De-
nouncing the present war-declaring
mechanism as "autocratic," Rep. Louis
Ludlow of Indiana appealed for ap-
proval of constitutional amendment
requiring a national referendum on
participation in foreign war.
Ludlow, testifying before Senate
judiciary subcommittee, asserted that
"the existing war-making mechanism
is grossly defective in that it cen
tralizes too much power in Congress
and the White House.
"The war referendum amendment
would broaden the democratic proc
esses so that the American citizen
would have the right to vote not only
on domestic matters but on the inter
national questions of war or peace
which affects him more vitally and
closely than any domestic question
that could possibly be imagined" the
author of the war referendum plan
asserted.

difficulties and of their hope for "early
resumption" of negotiations.

NOT REFRESHING
(From "As We See It,"
in Railway Clerk)

The editor of the Wall Street Jour
nal is the perfect little Pollyanna re-
garding our unemployment situation
He finds note of comfort in the most
surprising places. He says, "It isn't
a pleasant sight, but there is some
thing heartening and refreshing in
news of men fighting for jobs rather
than fighting to keep from working y
We are neither heartened nor re-
freshed when men fight for jobs. 1t
looks like sad reflection ON our civ
ilization that few have more money
than they know what to do with, while
so many have not even enough for
existence. Ii the editor were one of
those who have to fight for jobs, the
news might lose that heartening and
refreshing angle.

COURT BANS HIGHER
WAGES FOR WORKERS

Columbus, Ohio. (AFLWNS).-It is
one thing to secure the enactment of
a state law providing higher pay for
state employees. 1t is quite another
thing for the workers to realize the
benefits of such a law when it has to
be filtered through the state judiciary
This fact is revealed by the action
of the Ohio Supreme Court in hold
ing unconstitutional legislation passed
by the General Assembly last year
establishing a monthly pay rate for
state highway workers instead of an
hourly basis.
The monthly pay rate was included
by amendment in legislation asked in
a special message to the Legislature
by former Governor Martin L. Davey,
to increase the pay of highway pa
trolmen.
The Supreme Court held that mas
much as the pay for highway workers
was not included in the governor S
message to the special session of the
General Assembly, it was not legally
a part Of that legislation.

EMBARGO ON MERCY
(Trom the New York Times)

AS a member of the League of Ma
tions, Japan once signed an agreement
"to encourage and promote the estab-
lishment and cooperation of duly au-
thorized voluntary national Red Cross
organizations having as purposes the
improvement of health, the prevention
of disease and the mitigation of suf-
fering throughout the world"
AS member Of the Rome Berlin
Tokyo pact, Japan now permits it's
navy to prevent the landing of food
and medicines sent by the American
Red Cross for the relief of Chinese
refugees in war-Zone cities, and to
announce this embargo as policy
If this measure is sustained it will
kill innocent civilians quite as eff
fectively as the equally lawless and
cruel bombardments from the air in
which the Japanese are now syste-
matically engaged.
There may be Americans who be-
lieve that China offered some provo
cation for the Japanese invasion
Propaganda to that effect, whether or
not paid for by Japan, has been cir
culated in this country. But no pro-
vocation could justify what the Jap
anese army and navy are now doing
to the Chinese people. If the Jap
anese government finds sentiment in
this country unfriendly, it has it's own
folly and it's own brutality to thank
for it.

He was business representative for
the Plumbers and Steamftters' Union
No. 108. He also belonged to the
Bartenders' International Alliance, No

While business representative for
the Plumbers and Steamfitters' or
ganization, Jimmie" was always fair
in his dealings with his co-workers
and also with business men. He made
many friends while a citizen of Ham
ilton and will be sadly missed at the

which he was member.

AWARDS ANNOUNCED
FOR BEST PUBLICITY
in PARALYSIS DRIVE

Washington, d. G. (ILNS).-Th

tor of the Flint Weekly Review, an

Machinery Shown Taking
Grain Farm Workers Jobs

Washington, d. c. (ILNS).-An-
other of the illuminating though not
always encouraging reports on indus
try by the w. P. A. deals with the rails
ing of small grain. More than AGO.
100000 man-hours Of labor per year
has been Saved" through the i'm
provement of farm machinery; and
from 100000 to 100000 migratory
workers who used to follow the har-
vests have been completely displaced.
Seventy eight per cent of the COM
mercial wheat farms had tractors in
1886. The number of combines-ma-
chimes which harvest and thresh at
the same time-was about 1000 in
1920 and more than 10000 in 1887.
The report says:
"One current type of caterpillar
tractor is illustrated hitched to set
of three 14-foot drills. Operated by
one man, it easily seeds 10 acres OF
prepared land in an hour. SINH
larly, multiple bitches of disk harrows
and vertical disk plows are used be-
hind tractors to prepare 20 to 5Ofoot
swatches of land at time"
Obviously, this has turned grain
farming largely from a home occupa-
tion to a corporation affair; and large
areas have been turned from indi-
vidual farms to corporate estates.

COMPENSATION BILLS
SIGNED BY GOVERNOR
GREATLY HELP PLABOR
All Occupational Diseases Are Made
Compensate By New Legislation.
tBy Ohio Labor News Service,

Columbus, Ohio. Especially - Three
bills amending the workmen's COM
pensation law, enactment of which has
been termed "the biggest forward step
in the workmen's compensation law
since it was placed on the statute
books in 1913," were signed by Gov
ernor John w. Bricker May 27.
All of the bills had the support of
the Ohio State Federation of Labor,
and although one of them was at first
opposed by employer representatives,
the three measures as passed by the
Legislature were agreed" upon by
employers and labor spokesman.
Two of the bills, Senate Bill 297
and Senate Bill 118, were introduced
by Senator Horace S. Keifer, Spring
field, and the third, House Bill 400,
was introduced by Representative E.
E. Addison, Columbus.
Of greatest Importance to labor is
Senate Bill 297, which includes all
occupational diseases in the list of
compensate hurts or Affections under
the workmen's compensation law.
Since the enactment of the work
mems compensation law in 1913, 22
occupational diseases have been listed
as compensate by different General
Assemblies through the efforts of the
Ohio State Federation of Labor.
The inclusion of all such diseases
under the law was made possible by
a recent decision of the Ohio Supreme
Court, which held that employees could
sue employers for contraction Of oc-
cupational diseases not specifically
covered by the workmen's compensa-
tion law.
AS it is the purpose of the law to
insure financial relief to workers in
jured or made i'll at their employment,
a damage suit in court, the joint ne
gotiating committee of employers and
representatives of the Ohio State Fed
Grafton of Labor drafted and spon-
sored the new legislation. The law
becomes effective Immediately as an
emergency measure.
Senate Bill 118 clarifies the duties
of the four regional claims boards of
the Industrial Commission, and ex-
tends the authority of the commission
over decisions of the boards.
House Bill 400, including series of
amendments to the workmen's COM
pensation law to aid in forcing COM
pliance with the law and protecting
accrued awards allowed injured work
men, was also drafted by the joint
negotiating committee of labor and
employers.
