Other Causes Which Might Hinder

tural fair calendar is the Inter-
national Livestock Exposition and
Horse show, which will celebrate
its 41st anniversary this fall from

crop yields in most sections Of the
country this year.

charged that such a law would re-
suit in the "springing up of little

Thomas v. Regan, president of
the association, expressed the opin-

The association gave its approval
to prohibition of the sale of liquor

tions Act have been prepared by the
Smith Committee and submitted to the
Labor Committee Of the House of
Representatives Some of these amend
ments are practical and constructive.
However, it is the opinion of the
American Federation of Labor that
the amendments offered by the Smith
Committee as whole strike in de-
structive way at vital, fundamental
principles of the Labor Relations Act.
The American Federation of Labor
has repeatedly stated and emphasized
it's opposition to any impairment of
the fundamental principles of the La
Dor Relations Act in any way what
soever. We again urge and insist
that it's principles and it's fundamen-
tails shall be preserved and protected
The Labor Relations Act still re-
mains the Magma Carta of Labor. Our
appeal to Congress is to amend and
change the administration features of
the Act and policies of the Labor Re-
lations Board without impairing it's
fundamentals so that the Labor Re-
lations Act will be administered fairly
to all, just to labor and industry, and
in accordance with it's spirit and it's
| letter.
at is the opinion of the American
Federation of Labor that amendments
designed to accomplish this purpose
should be simple, direct and construc-
tive. If amendments providing for a
reconstruction of the Labor Board !;
the right of employers to petition for
elections under certain conditions; the
abolition of the right of the Board to
invalidate contracts honestly and just
ly negotiated through collective bar
gaining; the acceptance of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor recommends
tions relating to the selection and es-
tablishment of the appropriate collec-
tive bargaining unit, and the accept
ance of a simplified form of admins
trative and judicial procedure, were
| adopted by Congress, the Labor Re-
lations Act could then be applied in
a way as to meet general public ap-
proval and accord equal and exact
justice to all.
"The American Federation of Labor
will petition and appeal to Congress
to act favorably upon these recon-
mendation and to adopt these SIM
plified, limited amendments to the La
| Dor Relations Act"

Federation of Labor at the recent
Southern Labor Conference in At
lanta, Ga. In a nationally broadcast
address, Mr.. Green said:
"In seeking to attain it's economic
and legislative objectives, the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor has pursued
strictly non-partisan political pol
icy. We support the friends Of labor
in public office and we oppose labor's
enemies.
ave have never bartered or sur
rendered the political independence of
our members and we never will. The
leaders of the American Federation
of Labor have no personal political
ambitions. They are not trying to
run the existing political parties and
they are not trying to form an inde-
pendent political party. That is a
Communist idea. We are against it."
The Executive Council clearly eX-
pressed the program of American
Federation of Labor in the coming
campaign in the following statement
issued at its mid-winter meeting:
1--WE wish to emphasize that, in con-
formity with it's traditional policy, the
American Federation of Labor in
1910 will refrain from giving a
blanket endorsement to any political
party.
"We shall exert all the influence and
power at our command to the end that
both major parties nominate for the
office of President Of the United
States outstanding men whose outlook
is friendly and sympathetic to the
problems of the working men and
women of the nation.
"We shall press for the adoption by
both parties to constructive and
progressive platform and program of
action, to the consummation of which
it's candidates will be committed"

ers, building construction workers,
etc.
Under Executive Orders of the
President of the United States, these
aliens cannot be paid more than $50
a month. That is the maximum. By
hiring them the Government saves
money at the expense of thousands of
jobless Americans.
A new canal is to be built in the
zone at an estimated cost of $277, ,000,-
900. In addition the Army, Navy and
Panama Railroad activities are to be
greatly expanded and new fortifica-
tions and housing for workers erected.
The full program will call for the ex-
penditure of $60O,000,0O0 in the next
six years.
The House of Representatives al
ready adopted amendments to the
Army and Navy Appropriation Bills
Oh. r. 1868 and H. R. 8438) which
would eliminate all aliens from all
skilled, technical, clerical, supervisory
and administrative positions in the
new program. If the Senate votes to
retain these amendments, as proposed
by Senator McCarran, these jobs will
be available for thousands of Ameri-
can citizens at United States rates OF
pay plus rs per cent, with paid vaca-
tions and transportation with pay
while travelling from New York City
to the Canal Zone.
These positions will be available ir
practically every skilled or trained
occupation. Should the Senate adopt
the McCarran amendments, applica
tions for the jobs should be filed with
H. A. Smith, Chief of Police, Panama
Canal, 1435 X St. N. w., Washing
ton, D. C.
Therefore, President Green has in
stituted vigorous campaign for thu
adoption of the amendments. His cir
cular letter concluded:
Senator McCarran, who always
stands ready to lead labors' battles il

handle this matter in the Senate O.

of the fence. The CIO is starved for
money. 1t does not operate on self
supporting basis. It's dictator, John
l.. Lewis, has been forced to drain off
funds from the United Mine Workers
treasury to support the ClO. The
outfit was so badly in hook at the time
Of its last convention in San Francis
co that Lewis didn't dare submit
financial report to the delegates.
The membership Of the CIO is van
ishing more rapidly than last win
ter's SHOWS. Lewis never has dared
to make public a report on paid-up
membership. He just makes claims"
with no proof to back them up. Lewis
is now playing political game to the
exclusion of all other interests. He
is playing ball with the Communists
to get their help. He is following the
Communist Party line. That is why
he denounced President Roosevelt The
Communists were angry at the Presi-
dent because he expressed the horror
which all Americans shared over
Soviet Russia's indefensible invasion
of Finland. Lewis spoke up for the
Communists. He attacked the Presi-

that the kind of man you want for
leader? If you do, you are doomed to
be Stalinized or Hitlerized.
The ClO Communist leadership has
involved the automobile workers in
sea of troubles. lt has alienated pub-
lie respect and public confidence. 1t
has taken millions of dollars out of

needless strikes. 1t has not tried to

to mobolize you for revolution. 1t
