DAIRY co. SEEKS TO MAKE
UNION PAY FULL PENALTY

New York City QLNS).-The Shelf
field Farms Co. has instructed it's at
torneys to take all steps necessary to
compel payment of $4,000 penalty
levied against the Sheffield unit of the
Milk Wagon Drivers Union, A. f. of
L., for an "illegal' strike last Febru-
ary. The award for damages was made
by Arthur S. Meyer, impartial chair
man of labor relations for the milk
industry.
Originally the company accepted a
recommendation Of Meyer that the
payment be reduced to $4,000 in the
interest of harmony, but this offer ex-
pired at midnight Aug Is. The unions
contract with the company forbids
strikes.
Officials Of the milk company said
any money collected from the union
would be put in the employe pension
fund. Their principal object in order
ing legal action, they said, was to
impress upon the union the necessity
for full compliance with the contract
provisions.

by traffic experts as forward step in highways.
1t is expected to prove that trucks and automobiles
can be driven over it, pay the tolls, and reduce
their cost of travel.
Modern highways like the Pittsburgh-Harris-
burg project are expected to do away with practi-
cay all collisions and in support of that theory
the engineers are unanimous in the belief that ac-
cidents are reduced and collisions rarely ever occur
on super-highways.
Engineers in California took some Of the most
dangerous places in our highway system, watched
them for two or four years, and then proceeded to-
build super-highways, and the accidents almost
passed out of the picture" declared Senator Down.
ey.
In answer to an inquiry by Senator Byrd of
Virginia regarding the cost Of building the high
ways and super-highways Senator Downey said
that the money returned from modern and super
highways would be recovered to the taxpayers
through the use Of the Nations idle man-power in
building "self-liquidating projects that would in
crease the efficiency of our Nations economy to
such great extent as to offset the cost of these
particular investments.
The National Capital has been told that the en-
tire highway systems of the country could be
brought up to the above standards in 10 years.

UNPUBLICIZED DESTRUCTION

THE fire loss figures staggering as they are
don't tell the whole story by long shot
We may read, for instance, the fire destroyed
some $4OO 600 worth of property and 10000
lives in year. But what of the destruction that
never can be described in exact numbers?
Some of those fires burned factories. Wher
that happened, most men lost their jobs. Many of
them had to go on relief. Their families suffered
Bills could not be paid. And everyone else in the
ommunity-grocer doctor, banker, general store
propretor-felt the i'll effects of reduced purchas-
ing power
Most of those fires destroyed taxable property
That meant that all other taxpayers eventually
had to pay more to make up for the loss. Even
when a plant or home is Immediately rebuilt, q
period Of time eapses before it is again carrying
its normal share Of the community tax load. And
in many cases, rebuilding is long deferred or is
not undertaken at all.
. Some of those fires devastated natural re-
sources. And insurance can never compensate tol
what it takes nature hundred of years to create.
Other fires destroyed books, paintings, family
and legal documents, and property Of nature
which is completely irreplaceable. Again, msul-
ance, vital as it is, is helpless to make up fol
the loss.
Think of this next time you read figures con
cerning fire waste. 1t will give you better idea
of what an aggressive fire prevention movement
supported by all the people, would mean to this
country Of ours.

GOOD TO REMEMBER

II ,ABOR DAY speakers emphasized the tremen-
IL dous change for the better in the condition OF
American workers since the American Federation
of Labor was organized 60 years ago.
They stressed the great difference in wages
hour, conditions of work, security Of employment
then and now.
How was the tremendous change brought
about?
"Through patient organization, ceaseless
struggle and collective bargaining," answered
George Meaney A. F. of l.. SecretaryTreas
urer.
Trade unionists of today, unless they are well
enough along in years to remember the old days
sometimes forget that the condition of American
toers was not changed in day. The change did
not come through the passing Of laws, though that
was an important factor. 1t came through the un-
RENTING efforts of organized workers, as Mr.
Meaney pointed out. Future progress will come
through the same thing, which is something fol
this generation Of union men and women to re-
member.

"FREEDOM TO READ"
rom Woman's Home Companion)

(FrOm woman S home CO1npanlOn)
MONG the civil liberties guaranteed by our Bill
"A of Rights, along with free speech and free
press and freedom of worship, is what librarians
are calling freedom to read" This means that
serious authoritative books belong in public librar
les open to every reader, even though they con-
tain ideas with which the majority or noisy
minority do not agree.
In various cities and towns there are efforts
to ban from the libraries books called "subversive"
But the quickest way to make an idea flourish to
the extent of becoming subversive is to act as if
you were afraid of it, to give it the special pub
lcity of censoring it! DemOcracys case is strong
enough to hold its ground in open and free dis
cussiOn. AS the secretary of the American Library
Association says, "The right of the citizen to find
in his library the best material on all sides of con-
troversia public questions must be protected at
any cost"
Newspapers have adopted the excellent prac-
tice of printing under their war photographs,
British source or German source, so that you
can decide for yourself whose the propaganda is,
if any. In books, conscientious publishers usually
point out on the jacket if the author does not in
his foreword, who he is and what is his point of
view. Where this is not DONE it is a useful and
proper service for the librarian to do it in some
sort of printed notice by which readers can know
when they open the book which side of the ques-
tion it supports and what the authors bias may be.

Secretary Perkins Reports
Increase In Employment

Boston, Mass.-Secretary Perkins,
reporting an increase of more than
100000 in agricultural employ
ment in the last year, asserted that
"this employment is some 100000
greater than it was seven years ago,
exclusive of some 100000 additional
men and women engaged on WPA."
She forecast that employment and
payrolls would rise in the coming
months "as industries expand under
the comprehensive defense program"
In her Labor Day address Miss Per-
kins reported that the year had seen
marked improvement in industrial
relations and that wage earners and
business We're cooperating whole
heartedly in carrying out defense
tasks.

DISCONTENT AND PROGRESS

'NI1E "Cavalcade Of the Golden West, has fascl-
mated visitors to the San Francisco Worlds
Fair, particularly those from the Middle West,
South and the East.
At the Fairs on the Atlantic and Pacific coasts
the Diesel engine has been an outstanding feature
in the industrial exhibits The Fairs have helped
to bring the people to a realization of how fast
is improved by new streamned
and greater comforts
The developments of civilization have always
found transportation far in the lead. The San
Francisco and New York Worlds Fairs show mo-
tors out in front. Highways and Horizons has
drawn more visitors than any other industrial
exhibit on the New York Fair grounds. Trans
portation may owe a good deal to the human de-
sire to "go somewhere" which Woodrow Wilson
defined as "discontent' and "the first step in the
progress of a man or a Nation"
The California and New York Fairs, now near
ing their last laps, exhibit old and new wonders in
chemistry, electricity, photography, moving pic
lures, rubber, communication, steel, food and diary
products, the arts and Sciences that kindle ones
imagination and strengthen hopes that our Ma
TONS progress will increase its pace.

WISCONSIN CITY HELPS PAY
EMPLOYEES HOSPITAL CARE

Chicago QLNS).-Reported as the
first city to contribute municipal funds
to a group disqualification plan for
employees, Two Rivers, Wis, through
recent council action, voted to pay so
cents a month of a SLIP premium
charge for this insurance, the Inter-
national City Managers Association
says.
Under the plan the employe is en-
titled to 81 days in the city hospital,
plus a provision for X-rays, anesthe-
tics and surgical fees. For an added
fee, employees can cover other members
of their families. Two Rivers also
allows employees seven days sick leave

SEEN HALyED

Washington, D. c. QLNS).-Gov-
ernment economists predict that the
national defense program with con-
scription included would cut employ
ment in half by next July /, reducing
the total of jobless from 100000 to
4,500,00O. They said that they expect
ed a gradual pickup in industrial en-
ployment to provide jobs for more
than 100000 men in the next ten
months. Mobilization of the National
Guard and the start of selective SER
vice would account for another 1,O00,-
600 reduction in unemployment by late
Spring, they estimated.

MASS-MINDED

If you do not follow the big crowd these days
you're apt to be called an "appeaser,' which is
a synonym for the World War word "pacifist"
This is the danger in our National Capital today
Most people like to keep in step with public
opinion even though they have to follow with the
sheep. In Washington the throughout the country
maSs-minded is doing lot of damage. But zap
peasers," and 'pacifsts' usually have constructive
conversation to back up their opinions for the
very good reason that they do their own thinking
When a Nation lets one man do most of the think
ing and planning then that Nation becomes an
intellectual goose-stepper. That's the trouble with
Germany. In short, God was good enough to give
each Of us brain and we ought to use it in genu-
inc efforts to reach sound conclusions regarding
all public questions.

. PROPERTY NOT

Conscription seems all right

Because citizens all have the same

Conscription should apply to all
citizens, equally
Barring, of course, the usual ex-

is proud to be one
Who can think often enough in the

Mods his head, quietly, and is ready
to take his medicine
All out of the same big bottle
x X X
Conscription is really a tax
1t is the power to tax, carried to
the last notch
Men, and nowadays women, too, are
a military necessity
So government calls on those who
have the man-power, to pay
For that is the principle on which
all taxation must proceed
Otherwise tax collectors would not
collect very much

But this conscription is for War
And you don't go to War without
guns
When "guns" means tanks, air
planes, navy, and all that
1t begins to run into quite a lot
of wherewithal-
What you call "business" becomes
involved, in big way
Which in these goth Century days
means "Profits"-
Whereupon some guy, enrolled for
conscription-
Speaks out Of turn, says the rules
should be applied alike
That every body should be taxed ac-
cording to what he has
Whereupon his Congressman, think

Now, because the man-power must
also have gun-power-
War calls for property of various
kinds
We have seen what happened when
France didn't have gun-power-
Man-power, and gun-power, must be
formed, fed, trained, renewed
So, government proposes to apply
