to the best team. The boys game

moment was in store for the
spectators. both of the baskets
were always used, and gosh can
the Monaco boys ever shoot. by
the end OF the game the score
was 59--2S favoring Monaco. but

have heard that most of them moved
into the cities and are working for
| the big interests. But now the Bowens
must move out of their cave that pro
|tected them from the winter winds
and ice. They must move because
spring is here and the rattlesnakes
are coming out and laying claim to
the cave as they had prior rights and
will brook no Interference. Now
doesn't that remind one of the rattle
snakes that are bossing this country?
Just as soon as one finds place out
of the wind along they come and boost
him out
Here are two darn good ideas for
Mr.. Brandjord and the governor. If
they will only get together on the
caves and grass think how much the
state will save in hard cash. And
who knows maybe they can change
the color of the ink out at the Capitol.
Now am not insinuating because they
use red ink out at the Capitol that
they are Bolsheviks. They just use
it because it is the proper thing to
do under the circumstances.
suppose if we all take a sashay
out on the range and start to eating
grass there will be a terrible howl
from the big poor little sheep And
now about getting the people onto the
'orest reserve? l suppose the govern
nent will buck us as we will be
upon their little sideline.
Oh, WE'LL What's the use. We can't

Associated Farmers
Fight Teamesters;
Calls Vigilantes

TULARE, Cal.-(FP)-Unioniza
of local creameries, peacefully under
way for the past six months, met op-
position when the Associated Farmers
interviewed with a campaign to wipe
out unionism.
The organizational drive is being
conducted by the Western States
Dairy Employees Council and the High
way Council of Transfers (both AFL).
At recent A.F.-sponsored meetings
of farmers and farm workers, John
Watson, banker and A. F. member
pledged financial, legal and moral
support in driving the unions out of
the region.
Tt the same time The Tulare Daily
Advance Register, published by Percy
NJ Whiteside, made an editorial ap-
peal for resurrection of the Ku Klux
Khan to defeat "subversive, selfish
radical pressure groups" and prayed
for 1.-THE day when John Citizen will
be aroused to the point of doing some
thing drastic to protect himself and
correct some of the inexcusable omis-
sions of the government"
The anti-union campaign reached its
full force after the unions started
picketing the Arden Farms Inc, a unit
of one Of the largest dairy corpora
tions in the country and said to be
partly controlled by the Standard Oil
Co. No violence has occurred so far,
although rumors of impending rough
stuff bear the earmarks of the usual

HANDWRITING FOR WAR

gone beyond the ability OF the Mor0a
Financial Agency, for the British an,
French Governments. The need
becoming too great and urgent for an,
private agency to meet, for every sucl
agency has to encounter jealousies o
rivals and Of sections"
In 1904, Samuel Gompers, presiden
OF the American Federation OF Labor
said: "True to the highest and bes
conception Of human life the trade un
ion movement, from its first inception
has been opposed to war. 1t recog
nized that though others may fall, The
brunt Of war is borne by the working
people; not only upon the battlefield
itself, but the burdens thereafter
which war entails. We cannot be In
different to, restrain our feeling Of
horror, nor withhold our sympathies
from, the slaughtered thousands Of
human beings, even in the Far East
regardless of the country toward
which our predictions lie" Official
Report of American Federation of La.
Dor Convention, San Francisco, No
vember, 1000.
Ten years later, one month after
the World war had begun, Gompers
continued to sing the same pacifist
tune: "The war that was declared
bears most heavily upon the workers
file Of the armies; they endure the
greatest hardships both at home and
on the battlefield. II they live they
will go home to find that they must
begin all over again. The work Of
years will have been swept away.
Savings, trade organizations, trade
benefits, economic power-all will
have vanished as the flowers Of the
fields.
Twentieth century nations must
adopt as principle of government
that peace is basis of all civiliza-
ton :. Peace is the fundamental
necessity for all government and prog
intellectual, social
and humanitarian. Without peace all
these are as nothing. One of the main
purposes of government then must be
the maintenance of international
peace" Samuel Gompers: Labor and
The War, PIP. 1889.
On January 16, 1916, speaking be-
fore the National Civic Federation,
1ompers rejected his own pacifism,
and spoke about war for "idealism."
He said: "My belief that war was no
onger possible was based upon what
desired rather than upon realities
because l felt so keenly the brutality,
he destruction, and the waste of war.
t seemed to me that war and condi-
ions of war cut through the veneer

BY J. B. BENTLEY


The tactics used in the formation
of war plans today are practically
the same as were used in the World
war; Perhaps the scene has changed
a trifle on the worlds map and some
OF the actors have. been substituted
but otherwise it is no different than
the World war At that time the con
flict started over Belgium and the at
tempt this time was made with Fin
land. OF course we were fighting a
war to end all wars and preserve
world democracy. Practically all OF
the nations at that time that were
embroiled in the war were under a
monarchial form of government, in
GLIDING Russia. Neutrality before we
entered the World war was the chief
topic of discussion as it is today. And
President Woodrow Wilson was re-
elected on the assumption that this
country would stay neural. But the
money lenders of this country had
poured their idle capital into the Allies
as an investment, and they never at
any time figured on losing any part of
it. So the propaganda heat was turned
on to drag the United States into the
actual fight, not to save democracy
in Europe, that they had never had,
but to save the interest and the prin-
cipal of their investments in the Allied
armies.
The American people stood two
year barrage of war propaganda by
the newspapers, periodicals, churches,
clubs, Chamber of Commerce and Ia
Dor leadership. A few months after
President Wilson was reelected on
the slogan that he would keep us out
of war Wilson betrayed the people and
came to the front with full slate of
propaganda for war.
A letter from Robert Lansing to
President Wilson says: "Can we af-
ford to let declaration as to our
conception of the true spirit of neu-
trality' made in the first days of war
stand in the way of our national in
terests which seem to be seriously
threatened?
"If we cannot afford to do this, how
are we to explain away the declara-
ton and maintain semblance of con-
sistency?
my opinion is that we ought to al
low the loans to be made for our own |
good, and I have been seeking some
means of harmonizing our policy, so
announced with the |
flotation of general loans. AS yet |
have found no solution to the prob
lem"
This is an excerpt from a cable of
Page to Lansing: "Unless we go to
war with Germany our government,
of course, cannot make such a direct
grant of credit, but is there no way
in which our government might in
directly, Immediately, help the estab-
lishment in the United States of
large Franco-British credit without a
violation of armed neutrality? 1 am
not sufficiently acquainted with our
own reserve bank law to form an opin-
ion, but If these banks were able to
establish such a credit they would
avert this danger. 1t is danger for
us more real and imminent l think,

ocean realizes. II it be not averted
