Zander's alleged accomplices were

Two others charged with spread

Zander, "a, is chief of a Swiss

neer Portuguese stock which sup
piled the earliest immigration Of
European JeWry to these shores.
The Cardozos stem from the same
element. When Dewey ran against
Gov. Lehman in 1888 and almost
beat him, there were whispers that
the district attorney had not shrunk
from availing himself of certain
anti-Semitic help, though there was
not the slightest evidence that
Dewey himself ever harbored an
anti-Jewish thought. Indeed, after
the Nazi pogroms in Germany last
November, Dewey was in the fore
front of those eminent Americans
who publicly denounced Hitlerism in
unmeasured terms. Be all this as it
may, politicians find it smart busi-
ness for Dewey to intrust his pre-
convention strategy to a man of
Medalie's caliber. not only as a citi-
zen but as respected exponent of
his race, which wields decisive power
at the polls in Greater New York.
Medalie, by the way, was a Colum-
bia Law School classmate of Frank
lin D. Roosevelt in 1907.

represented the United States SEN

Hoover's appointment. Our other

A Harding Renaissance.
Apropos the vacancy in the secre-
taryship of the Navy, there's an
amusing yarn of the time President
Harding was building his cabinet
in the winter of 1920-2l. One of
his closest friends was the late Fred
Upham of Chicago, long time treas
urer of the Republican National
Committee. Upham was offered a
blue-ribbon ambassadorship or
about any cabinet portfolio he
wanted. One day the Chicagoan
told Washington crony he'd finally

MEfTBER
FIGURES SHOW WHAT
BUT NOT WHY

The DaFollette committee is dedicated
TO the task of proving that everybody
except the laborer himself is engaged
in denying civil liberties to laborers, if
past performance is any indication.
So the LaFollette committee will un-
doubtedly attempt to prove that Cali
fornia agricultural laborers are the most
set upon farm workers in the nation,
using as proof the fact brought out at a
committee hearing this week that this
state, employing only "A per cent of the
nations agricultural labor, has had 35
per cent of the nations agricultural
strikes.
Maybe it was just accident that the fig
ures quoted before the committee by its
own attorney did not show, also, that
Californias farm labor wages are the
highest of any state in the nation.
That wouldn't have been so good for
the committees record, considering what
it seems to be driving at
Perhaps the committee will attempt
to show why, and by whom, CALIFORNIA;
35 per cent of the nations farm strikes
were called. We doubt it.
Imperial county knows we'll who calls
these strikes. and who attempts to keep
them alive. We know by bitter exper-
fence. We contributed our share to make
up the states percentage.
We know that in not one single instance
did any local farm labor leader call
strike. They were called by soft-fingered
so-called labor leaders in Los Angeles
and San Francisco. They were kept alive
by outsiders who had never visited Impe-
rial Valley until the news spread that
a strike was in progress here.
Why?
Because these people make their liv-
ings-and soft livings they are, too-out
of labor troubles; and because the val
ley's perishable produce industry is es-
pecially susceptible to a strike that, by
delaying harvests of shipments only a
few days, may ruin the entire season.
Will the LaFollette committee bring
out these things? 1t is doubtful.
