The Low Down
From Hickory Grove

The very latest is to investigate
the SEC. SEC is the Security Ex-
change Commission. 1t is one of
the bureaus that was gonna make it
safe to invest. And they have done
80. They have made it so safe and
sure that there is nothing left to in
vest in except horse race. And l
Just been reading about Santa Ami
ia, a race-t track in California, and
boy, is money changing hands there.
But betting on a horse race where
you have one chance maybe in a
hundred, and you can lose your
shirt oa either the favorite or a long
shot, it is .. X. with the Govt.
There is no SEC on horse races,
but if you have a share of stock in
an electric company the SEC will
show up and make a rule that it is
a holding company and undesirable
and should be eliminated. You,
also, are eliminated.
But the SEC is getting so many
of its friends into the holding COM
panies, to run them as Receiver,
that you cannot tell who is holding
the company.
Congress is getting suspicious.
The horse is gone, so it is time to
investigate.

No doubt the thing that prompt
ed this editorial was the fact that
the government shipped in some
200 cases of eggs to be distribut-
ed in this district for Easter. In
the past thousands of pounds of
beef have been shipped in for
the same purpose.
II the stores practiced what
they preached, they, too. would
buy in their own community.
thereby keeping our dollars at
home," Over half of the meat
sold in Browning is either ship.
ped or delivered from other dis
tricts. The eggs that were in
the stores for the usual Easter
trade were SO per cent foreign
eggs and were not produced in
this county. Therefore, the dis
tribution of those 200 cases of
eggs did not hurt the communi-
ty. The only thing that was lost
was the profit on foreign eggs
that would have gone to the
stores. The writer also has in
mind the bringing in of outside
labor when folks here at home
cannot find employment.
1t seems to the writer that the
merchants should be required to
go to the foreign markets where
they secure their products for
their customers. No complaint
can be made by the merchants
about their customers making
purchases outside the commune
ty when they set a poor example
by doing the same thing. when
there are ample commodities, es-
pecially meat and eggs, right
here. It. is not the object of this
writer to complain about the poor
and needy receiving meat and
other commodities, but an effort
should be made to purchase these
st home.

THE WORKING MAN PAYS

Who bears the heaviest bur.
den when an unjustified strike
is called? That is easy to an
swer: the working man.
The San Francisco Employers
Council recently published a sur.
vey of what happened in a num-
Der of recent strikes. In one
case, 1876 employees lost 81 days
wages and the strike was finally
called off. In another. 153 en-
ployes lost 81 days wages and
the strike was called off. In an
other. 25O employees lost 107 days
wages and the strike was called
off.
So it goes, down a long list.
And in the case of really big
strikes such as that against
Chrysler, the wage loss to work
ers runs far into the millions.
Labor organization is desirable.
A we'll organized and fairly oper.
ated union is a great asset to the
laboring man. But the unjusti-
fed strike is usually the result of
unprincipled, self seeking labor
leadership. Such labor leaders
don't have to worry their sala-
ries 60 on as usual. It's the
working man who pays and pays
and pays.

 Satka sought to ask the Govern ment to open new lands for home stealing but he learned in Wash ington that he could have accom- plished the same end by asking the Forest Service agent at Juneau to classify the land as suitable for agriculture.
 Satko said he plans to return to Juneau via Seattle to give the authorities there a chance to do any thing they wish in connection with his disregard of the court order last April when he sailed AlaskaWard secretly.
 Satko said: q am not looking for trouble but if the authorities are going to do anything I would rather have it happen while 1 am alone so the whole family will not be tied up
