AGRICULTURE'S WORST
ECONOMIC ENEMY

The campaign of the Associated Farm
ers of California to outlaw secondary
boycotts in labor strife will meet with
widespread approval in such agricultural
communities as Imperial Valley, where
the evil of such labor weapons are most
apparent.
There is only one way the farmers of
this or any other community can fight
the secondary boycott. 1t is by cooper
ton. To bring about cooperation, such
an organization as the Associated Farm
ers is vital.
A secondary boycott is the procedure
whereby a comparatively small union,
with not even one-third representation
of labor in agricultural fields or pursuits,
can declare farm produce from given
area to be 'hot cargo" and so win the
help of gigantic labor unions in other
areas. The larger unions, by refusing to
handle the "hot cargo, can ruin the far
mer whose entire livelihood for year
may be at stake.
There are several things the farmers
can do about it. They can fight for revi-
sion of one-sided laws under which such
an unfair procedure is possible. They
can themselves boycott the community
in which the outside labor union operates
They can, as they have done in several
instances, see to it personally that their
produce goes through, in spite of labor
union racketeerS.
But the farmers can do none of these
things unless they present united front
against their economic enemies. AS long
as even a small group fails to cooperate,
the farmers are at the mercy of the high
ly organized labor unions-at the mercy
of labor unions which may have no direct
interest in the particular issue at stake,
and no knowledge whatsoever of the fac

MORE LANGUAGE STUDY
Riverside Press)

The study of German is dropping off
in this country's public schools and col
leges. French seems to be holding its
own. Spanish is gaining rapidly. Study
of Spanish has become most important
and popular because the people of the
northern American continent have dis
covered that most of the people of the
southern continent speak it.
Understanding among the peoples of
the 21 republics of this hemisphere GER
tainly needs understanding of the Ian
guages and cultures of all.
French has so long been an important
and interesting language for so many
reasons that it will take more than the
collapse of France to reduce the study
of it here very much.
1t is unfortunate that the evils of the
nazi regime should react against the Ger
man language After all, it was the Ian
guage of Goethe, Heine, Schiller and 9th
er great men whose expressed thoughts
remain in value to all humankind
But as events are today, Spanish is,
we believe, the most important language
to be studied; especially by Caifornians
1t will be well if school men stress this
Importance to those scholars who are
undecided what language study they
wish to take on.

1t looks as if the manufacturers
of airplanes and the American War
Department are heading for a
stubborn controversy and it also
looks as if the War Department is
on its way to committing a serious
blunder.
In it's iustifiable anxiety to get on
with the rearmament program, the
War Department has filed with the
PrioritieS Board of the National
Defense Advisory Commission re-
quest that it study whether manu-
facture of commercial airplaneS
should cease, with all facilities be-
ing devoted to war planes.
Companies most affected are pre-
pairing vigorously to fight. The dir
ectors say the number of CONNER
cial planes they have on order or in
proSpect-somewhere around 100
Is not great enough to seriously
cripple the nations rearmament
effort and. furthermore, that it is
necessary to retain their CONNER
cial business against the time when
defense work will cease.
This does not stress the biggest
argument of all-that to stop work
on commercial planes would Grip
pie seriously the vast commercial
flying business in the United States
and the ambitious plan to increase
flights to foreign lands. The War
Departments plan would interfere
with necessary requirements for
lines now operating in America and
with the building OF new planes
especially adapted for great cross
ocean flights.
Most Americans do not realize
their country's supremacy in COM
mercial aviation. Comparatively,
the efforts OF all Europe in peace
time were puny. Nowhere did Eur
ope have such hour by hour flights
between all important cities and no.
where did Europe have night flights
with sleeping berths for passengers.
But that is only part of the picture.
Flights of American airplanes on
regular schedule outside the Unit
ed States still capture the imagina-
ton. The line across the ATLANTIC
to Lisbon is today the main pas
Senger and mail link between Am
erica and Europe. In the fight for
the business and friendship of Lat

HOLLYWOOD, Dec. 4. - This
will be a third career for Joan
Marsh. Her third career in movies,
that is. Three years ago. when she
was % and a little tired after having
worked from cradlehood, Miss Marsh
became Mrs. Charles Belden and
announced she was going to make
a full-time job of marriage.
And now-well, it isn't that she
is any less happy being a writer's
wife. It's just that she could
be even happier as a married ac-
tress. During the past three years
Miss Marsh played a couple of
minor roles for the fun of it and
discovered that what she had been
tired of was not working, but of
being a perennial cutie-pie. Here
after if Hollywood is willing she d
like to act.
She may have a hard time get
ting a chance. Paramount hired
her for The Road to Zanzibar" 3"
with Bing Crosby and Bob Hope,
and popped her into the role and
costume of magician's assistant.
Miss Marsh could act her heart
out: she might make Bette Davis
and Katherine Cornell look like
light comediennes-but with that
figure in black tights and tight
black thingamajag, nobody's be like
" to note her hiStronicS
DAUGHTER OF

And when Joan Marsh puts Oh
slacks and sweater and walks across
the lot to the cafe, passersby be-
come swiVel-necked, and even the
sound-stage signal lights seem to
blink. I know, because I've strolled
with her.
Scores know her, of course, in
cluding old-timers who've bounced
her on their knees and bought her
ice cream cones. Comparative new
comers to Hollywood usually are
puzzled; some have wondered if
she's the daughter of that old-time
star, Joan Marsh.
Fact is, of course, that she was
playing ingenu-ish leads in big
pictures right up to the time of
her virtual retirement less than
four years ago. But people are

WASHINGTON, Dec. 4. - Any
campaign managers who thought
they had found a set of loopholes
in the Hatch clean politics act
during the last few months, and
acted accordingly, are going to
have some soft words with Senator
Hatch before they get through,
Senator Hatch, to be blunt, does
MT think there are any real loop
holes in the act that bears his
name, and he proposes to make a
fuss about it if he finds that the
laws spirit was violated.
Right now he's sitting tight. He
wants to see the final records of
the House and Senate campaign
investigating committee, headed by
Representative Wilmington an
Senator Gillette. Then he wants
to study the full financial reports
of the Democratic and Republican
national committees.
He doesn't of his own knowledge
know whether this last campaign
was, as Senator Gillette has re-
marked, the most expensive one
ever held, but he is convinced there
was some pretty heavy spending.
All those billboards I saw weren't
put up free, he says. Neither
were those newspaper and magazine
ads given away And all that radio
time wasn't donated"

MATTER OF
KNOWLEDGE

campaign expenditures to $3,000000
The supposed loophole opened up
when somebody decided that limit
applied to each individual political
organization, so that if you could
put half a dozen different outfits
to work each one could spend up
to $3,O0O,000.
Senator Hatch says that simply
isn't so.
The act provides, in substance
that all money expended by any
one with knowledge of the national
committee must be charged up as
expenditures of the national COM
mittee ITSELF" he says.
Il wouldn't go to the extent of
saying that if some ordinary NOR
tai went out on his own hook and
spent a little money to boost his
candidate, his sepnding ought to
be charged up to the committee.
But where you have huge national
organizations set up to do the same
job as the national committee
and, in some cases, obviously split
up just in order to avoid this limi-
tation-I should say that the money
they spend is clearly part of the
national committees expenditure.
Its too thin for any national
committee to say, Yes, here's
nation = wide organization spending
money for our candidate in every
state and precinct-but we don't
know a thing about it"

A WORRY
FOR G.. o. p.

All of this, of course, is chiefly
matter for the Republicans to
worry about. Senator Gillette has
remarked that officials of several
of the assorted Willkie clubs told
his committee frankly that their
lawyers had advised them that each
organization could spend up to the
S3,000,000 limit. The Democrats had
a number Of subsidiary clubs of their
own, but most Washington obServ-
ers doubt that they fractured Hatch
act limit very badly-simply be-
cause it's doubted that they we're
able to lay hands On the money.
Until it is known precisely what
was spent, and by whom, it is i'm
possible to say just what either
Congress or the administration may
do.
The main thought to hold in
mind" says Senator Hatch, lis that
there are inevitably going to be
some violations and some loop
holes in any brand-new law. This
act is Just a beginning. We must
strengthen it and improve it. More
than anything else, though, there
must be an education process
among the people so that they will
demand better enforcement and
higher standards.
