TO USE ALL
SPANISH STORIES

The many Spanish films he made
here in Hollywood were special
versions of feature productions
such as Bad Man" and THE Cat
and the Canary" The scheme was
to hire an all-Latin cast which
would follow the regular company,
using the same sets and transla-
tions of scripts.
1t worked fairly we'll. but WoulG
have been much more successful.
Moreno explained, if the transla-
tions had not been so aWkWardly
literal and if the players had been
q little more carefully chosen.
Perhaps they'd hire Mexican, a
Cuban, a Basque and an Argen-
tinian" he recalled, and show
'em on the screen as members Of
one family"
One or Two companies finally
hired Spanish experts to see that
everything was done just right. But
theY were conscientious and slow,
sent costs skyrocketing. So the
studios quit making Spanish ver-
sions, and the Latin American
market was lost.
Idea behind the plan for Cuban
production is that the island re-
public is a neural center and yet
a truly Latin one. Scripts will be
adapted from Spanish stories. Mo-
reno explained that although var
ious Spanish speaking countries
may dislike each others accents,
they still would rather see and
hear each others plays faithfully
performed than to witness the
hodge -podges which have been cent
tn, m. in the past.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 20.-That
Eaten plant strike at Saginaw,
Mich. packing a lot more of the
dynamite of significance than any
local disturbance should, has ex-
ploded down in Washington. First,
it has put congress in a frame OF
mind to apply stern repressive mea-
Sures to labor in defense indus
tries. Second it may wreck a big
nership' status with capital in
management of the national pre-
paredness program.
The now famous Reuther report
on using idle auto factory facilities
to make airplanes was but the first
step in this program by which la
Dor leaders hope to establish la
bor's right to sit in as a partner
in handling of national defense.
Soon to be announced is the sec
ond plan. a report now being per-
fected by officers of the c. l. O.
Steel Workers Organizing commit
tee giving labors ideas on how
steel production can be increased.
a. F. OF l.. HAS
A PLAN, TOO
This report is understood TO find
that approximately one-third of
the nations total steel capacity is
either not being used at all or is
being used far less effectively than
it might be. 1t sets forth along the
lines of Reuther report to Sug-
gest ways in which existing facill-
ties could be made to yield much
higher production.
In opposition to this labor plan,
of course. manufacturers say many
of these idle facilities for steel
production are now rated by man
agement as obsolete and unprofit-
able to operate. as they are hand
operated in competition with "au-
tomato" machine operated mills
now in general use.
Third proposal in the labor plan
viii come from the A. F. of l.. ma
chinists. who are cooperating in a
study by the American Association
Of Railroads of unused railway ma
chine shops. This is not on all fours
with the other two studies. since
it is primarily a management job.
Labor, however, is playing an i'm
portant part.
These Developments - and there
will be more like them before the
winter is OVer-are very much in
line with Defense Commissioner
Sidney Hillmans conviction that
labor has an equal responsibility
with capital and management for
proper functicning of the defense
program He is fond of pointing to
the situation in Great Britain,
where the labor representatives in
the Churchill cabinet have brought
labor's role more and more to the
front Hillman. himself an expert
or management, believes labor is
amply fitted to share in the solu-
ton of all production problems.

NO DEAD DUCK
A sample of the sort of duty
sharing he has in mind is fur-
nished By the Shipbuilding Stabili-
zation Committee-a body set up

committee labor and capital to-
gether are sitting in with the Mari

self has been getting much more

Commissioners than early reports

THE UNIONS DEMANDS

The Fruit and Vegetable Workers I'm
ion, in making six demands upon the
grower-shipper bargaining committee in
meeting scheduled for Tuesday morn
ing, raises again one Of the most misun-
derstood issues in labor negotiations
that of the closed union shop.
We make no pretenSe Of knowing
whether the union is right or wrong in
demanding elimination of the split
bench system of employment and elim-
nation of wage differentials between male
and female employees. Possibly these
demands should be met-we do not know
enough of the background to comment
one way or the other AS to full protec-
tion of social security and unemployment
insurance, that is matter only the
United States congress can iron out
the employers could not say eyes" if
they wanted to- Overtime compensation
for penalty hours, Sundays and holidays
is a matter that can wisely be left to
the respective bargaining committees,
and it is taken for granted that proper
wage adjustments will be made where
and if necessary.
But the closed union shop is another
thing. 1t is a matter of primary interest
to the public, not because of whatever
rights" the employers or the union may
have but because it would set up sys-
TEN under which no man can get job
without paying tribute to some certain
organization, whether he wants to or
not.
1t should be the right of the individual
laborer to decide whether he wants to
join a union. No union, nor any employ
er, should be empowered to force him to
join That is the closed shop issue

COLLECTIVE BARGAINING
By VALLEY EMPLOYERS

It's wonder somebody hasn't done it
before
The agreement among Imperial Valley
produce shippers and growers to con-
duct their labor relations activities
through an integrated bargaining COM
mittee instead of as individual employ
ers, is such a simple, common sense pro-
cedure that the only wonder is, it was
net done long ago.
Through It's bargaining committee, the
packing shed industry of Imperial Val
ley will be merely applying the methods
labor itself has used ever since passage
of the Wagner Labor Relations act by
congress. The unions cannot make any
legitimate complaint, because the grower
shipper bargaining committee is paral-
lei in every respect to laborS own bar
gaining committees
The grower-shipper committee is or
ganized for the sole purpose of negotiat-
ing with a similar committee represent
ing employees, on matters of wages, hours
and working conditions. 1t is by no
means group organized in any attempt
at restraint of trade, nor can it be truth
fully said that it represents in any way
an effort to cOerce labor.
The grower-shipper committee, it is
true, represents a great number of en-
ployers who have pooled their cmmon
interests for the sake of collective bar
gaining But so does the labor unions
collective bargaining committee. The
grower-shipper committee, in fact, has
a bit the best of it there, for it is made
up of men whose welfare is actually
bound up in the enterprise under discus
sion Most of the time labor union COM
mittee is made up, of men who never
worked in the particular shed, for the en-
ployes of which they are supposed to be
bargaining.
If both employer and employe commit
tees function as they should, the valleys
agricultural industry-both capital and
labor-will benefit materially. For, in
stead of continuous strife involving first
one shed and then another, the commit
tees negotiations should settle things for
employers and employees alike in all
sheds at once

BROOKLINE. Mass, Sept. TO-,
The startling elimination of Betty

When Miss Jameson bowed to the
surprising Janet Younker of White

Mrs. Newell convinced all her re-.

one-sided victory paired Mrs. Newell,

Rucker of Spokane, Wash. A sec.
ond-round win will move Mrs.
Newell against either Miss Younkef
or Mrs. William Hockenios jr.. the
New Jersey champion, later in the

Two other California threats, Mrs.
James Ferrie and Clara Calender,
both semifinalistS last year, also
were expected to encounter sitter
competition in the second round
against Gail Wild Of Springfield,

que, N. Mex.
Mrs. Estelle Lawson Page of

have an easier Second-round assign
ment against Toronto's Grace Sears,

Louise Suggs of Atlanta, the

against no less than the famed
