The law went into effect and a considerable con-
fusion resulted tWO-doar- electrician had to
work but 46 hours month for mis- salary, while 60
shovepusher had put some $50 hours
for the money Much criticism for within the
WPA we'll as without WPA jobs delayed because
of the difficulties of coordinating work when
worked only third much time others And this year
Congress passed a Relief Bill making number Of
drastic changes in the principle of WPA administration
Biggest change aboishment of the wage dfferen-
tia and the requirement of all WPA benefciares to
work 100 hours month"; without any increase in wages
And the A. F. of L. craft unions, led by William Green
howed again. The WPA union, the Workers Alliance
howed louder yet, and called the strike No knows
exactly how many walked out-in sections a
majority did and in others few did. WPA executives took
firm line and the dismissal order followed apparently
with Presidential approval
There is a considerable group in Congress which
favors restoration of the wage dfferentia But last
reports this group has decided against pushing bill to
that end nowit looks the strike found small public
favor and if Congress at large soldly committed to
the principle that WPA jobs relief jobs and that
workers have right to complain AS Newsweek phrases
it. "The WPA strikers find themselves the dubious
ground conducting walkout against employer who
would be money ahead if they would close down every
job" Very high officials have said that there
can be such thing successful strike against the
Federal government and that cannot be recognized
arbtrated
Outlook now is that little or nothing will be done
this session to change the 1910 law-Congress watch
ing the calendar is sick of Washington and eager to
home the vital work of political fence building But
adjournment won't settle the issues the unions seem
prepared fight out if it takes years You'll be hearing
much more of it. though the possibility of additional
widespread WPA strikes in the future isn't likely.

COUNTRY PAPERS ARE BEST

There is inclination sometimes to underrate the
small weekly newspaper too small and too nsufii-
ciently supported to have much influence 1t is well to
remember IN this connection that the small weekly
paper has the closest contact to the individual of all
publications. 1t is the most typically American of all
institutions.
Through its columns it's editor gbe his opinions
and through its columns his subscribers give their
opinion any matter of public interest It's columns
therefore become public forum clearing house of
public opinion So far the weekly has not been
taken by large industry and up in chains whose
opinion is all moulded and set from source. The
editor of the country weekly subject orders
except those of his conscience The country
the spokesman of the farmer the editor the small
business 1t is these groups who speak the purest
mocracy and Americansm. They not influenced by
special seeking special privileges and special legs
ation. They think in the of the good
1t is free from class preudce Its editor stands for the
things that best for all of the people of his community
The Country newspaper the most typical American
institution remaining in this country.-Ex.

At this writing it looks as if the WPA strikes are
about Several thousand workers been
for failing to return work within five days. by order
OF Colonel Harrington, WPA head Many thousands of
strikers returned to work in time and on the Job
But the issue from which this remarkable and unprece
dent strike resulted is far from settled And in order to
thoroughly understand it in all its remifcations it is
necessary TO go back down the years to 1885.
When the WPA first constituted by Congress
and the principle of wOrk-reief for the ableboded IN
stead of direct relief decided upon the idea was
that WPA workers would be paid salaries sufficient to
maintain them at minimum comfort levels in return for
useful labor Little trouble resulted long the
were put on jobs requiring ski-eaf-raking lawn
cutting, pckandshove labor etc. But when the made
work projects began requiring the aid of skilled work
men, such as electricians carpenters and steamers the
craft labor unions let out tremendous howl.
Basis of the howl that the comparatively low
pay received by the skilled WPA-most of whom
were out-of-work union members-would inevitably force
down the rates of workers in private industry and
commerce Whether not this true Congress listen
ed and hodght it carefully. At that time, union
political influence just about at its apex The
quence was that Congress passed law under which
skilled WPA craftsmen would receive hourly rates pay
In accord with union standards in the locality involved
but that these we-pad would be allowed to work
only enough hours to bring their total monthly compen
sation up to maximum of $9289 This is the maximum
in the big Eastern cities where of living high maxi
