MORE THAN THEORY NEEDED

Public policy has long recognized, in
theory at least, that it is not only more
decent, but cheaper, to provide for the
victims of industrial accidents through
compensation insurance than through
relief or charity-and that it is even
more economical to prevent many of
the years 1875, 900 injuries by doing
thorough job of industrial safety and
industrial hygiene, the U. S. Depart
ment of Labor says.
The unfortunate thing about the in
dustrial accident situation is that en-
ployer recognition of the principle
that accident prevention is cheaper
than compensation is too often mat
ter of theory. If employers generally
would make accident prevention a
fact, instead of theory, the workers
and the nation would gain immeas-
urably.
Steadily growing public recognition
that accident prevention pays in every
way is cheering factor in the sit
uation. When public sentiment forces
action-real action-accidents in in
dustry, the home, agriculture and the
highways will be minimized and an

-V Where with our
roo Little Hatchet we
tell the truth
about many things, sometimes pro-
foundly. Sometimes fippantly,
sometimes recklessly.

The great sport just now is to whale
the daylights out of Hoover, the Big
Sleuth of F. B. L.
Election time is isrolling near and the
politicos have to have targets Hoover,
being somewhat prominent, makes a
target.
Cheapskates and those who have
tracks to cover find it good shooting
to take crack at Hoover.
Always, some of the good people,
like Norris, can be induced to join in.
Hoover's worst offense is that he
has sent some bad eggs to the dun
geons.
He has a way of getting publicity
and some hate him for that. But, as
it has been said, maybe that's not so
bad, because publicity has helped make
bad eggs afraid.
There's been a howl about wire
tapping. There has to be stern pro-
lection of innocents, but just how long
must authority content itself with
tapping on the wrist it's Lucianos and
Capones?
And how about the Reds and the
Fascists and the Nazis When a
democratic government goes into ac-
tion to protect its democracy, just how
gentle must it be in the process of
getting the goods on the avowed ene-
mics of democracy?
Under our laws we have to make a
case, not as the Reds and the Nazis
make one, but so that convictions can
be had under our law 1t happens that
these snakes can do MOST of their
dirty work without violating any of
our laws in such way that evidence
cannot be got through wrist-slapping
methods. They don't conspire on street
corners.
Partisan shooting at Hoover is
ABOUT as out OF place as anything
could be, because here is one chap who
has been about as free from partisan
ship in political sense as any office
holder in the United States.
Such agencies as the League for
Human Rights, Freedom and Democ-
racy, can work only through educa-
ton. which is. of course. the best way

WISDOM

All that harms labor is treason to
America. No line can be drawn be-
tween these two. If any man tells you
he loves America yet hates labor, he
is a liar. If any man tells you he
trusts America yet he fears labor he
is fool. There is no America without
labor, and to fleece the one is to rob
the other.-Abraham Lincoln.

Watch for gradual emergence,
within the next few months of discreet
propaganda, naturally from Allied
sources, for repeal of the Johnson Act
which bans further extension of United
States government credit to debtor
nations.
Great Britain and France, having
failed to pay war debts to this country
incurred during the World War, come
under this ban. British credits here
now are sufficient, authorities claim,
to meet war materials purchases for
about one year.
AS that time passes, it will be neces-
sary for Britain and France, perhaps
vitally so, for some plan to be formu-
lated whereby the flow of war sup
plies may continue unabated if the
war goes on. A large-scale war will
use up British funds faster, would also
make more pressing the need for loan
credit when cash is all gone. Then
will come a drive for repeal of the
Johnson Act and extension of credit
to the Allies.
The American Federation of Labor
is on record as opposing any extension
of credit that might tend to involve
the United States in the European
war. Congress and the people as a
whole have given every indication of
being in thorough agreement with la
| boris stand.
At the time of the war preparations
large groups of German workers were
already shackled to their jobs. Since
the outbreak of war (says the Inter
national Federation of Trade Unions
Bulletin) this industrial enslavement
has been extended to virtually all
workers. Workers not released by
their employers may only change their

300 Per- sons View Student Dis
 plays Last Evening

In joint commemoration of Am erican Education Week and Ma tional Book Week, the Juneau Pub lie Schools last evening held open house after 7:30 o'clock. Approxi- mately 300 persons viewed the in- dividual room displays in both the high and grade schools and the instructors were assisted during the evening by parents of various stu dents in their home rooms, who acted as hoStesSeS for the occa- sion.
 Of special interest in the high school was the manual training room, where students were demon- strating plans involved in the con- struction of a frame house, the construction of picture frames and various other work included in their years program. A glass in- cased sawdust display of the sev- eral kinds of wood used in class work made another unique exhibit in this room.
 Always of outstanding note, the science room attracted consider able attention as displays were seen from the biology, physics and chemistry departments.
 Another interesting room was the typing class, where individuals stopped to watch students type in rhythm to musical selections.
 Probably the most popular room in the high school, however, was the Home Economies Department, where Pr l nee Penny aspirants busted thelSelyes with candy reci- pies which they tried out" on room callers.
