Reporter Tests
Left Turn Ban
On Grand River

Detroit motorists apparently are
learning quickly. The no-left-
turn rule on Grand River avenue,
which went into effect this morn
ing at 8, caused little confusion
in the first two hours.
A Times reporter drove the dis
lance of ID miles and four times
attempted to turn left to test the
reaction of other motorists. The
reaction was loud and immediate.
In each case horns blew and driv-
ers motioned him on.
The heavy morning traffic
moved quickly and only one other
driver was seen TO make left
turn from Grand River.
Should the plan prove successful,
traffic authorities say. it may be
put into effect on other main
thoroughfares. The rule applies
only TO. cars attempting TO make
left turns of Grand River and
not onto ii from side streets.
THOROUGH TRIAL
Traffic Engineer d. Gran I
Mickle asked residents TO reserve
judgment of the experiment until
ii has been given a thorough trial.
"F'irst of all we want 10
eliminate accidents due 10 left
turns and next we want 10 move
traffic without congestion de-
lays" Mickle said.
eff this is highly satisfactory"
Mickle continued, "the next step
will be a limited-access highway
with cross traffic barred except
ut traffic signals.
81 advise drivers TO arrange
their routes before driving on
or crossing Grand River. IL
they will go one block beyond
the corner at which they want
to leave Grand River. they will
find that a series of right turns
Is easier than left turns and not
so dangerous"
Exactly $50 signs, reading mo
Left Turn from Grand River, !"
have been strung out along the
13 miles from downtown TO the
city limits.

Snyder's letter to Stewart said that
'both your senator -. and assemblyman

Of course the incident is Just one in

PROTECTION FOR TIE
INNOCENT THIRD PARTY

By outlawing secondary boycott prac-
tices in passing the famous hot cargo
bill over Governor Olson's veto. the Call
fornia senate and assembly guarantee
innocent bystanders against whatever
economic brickbats may be flying about
in the states labor disputes.
Secondary picketing as it Is practiced
in California has been almost entirely a
weapon which union organizers forced
unwilling members into their groups.
The practice of labelling goods hot
cargo which union members at ship
ping centers or elsewhere refuse to nam
die has been an unfair means of bring
ing pressure to help strikers who, OF
themselves. are ineffective because they
cannot stop work at the plant where they
strike.
In both cases the greatest sGfferer Is
almost invariably someone Who has no
part in the labor dispute, and can do
nothing to terminate It, nor In lnlluence
its outcome.
Union organizers, for instance in pick
eting shop where a rival union mas
preponderance Of members. or where
there is a iurisdictional dispute in prog
ress, bring economic damage to the owner
of the place-yet the dispute may be
entirely between the unions.
In the case of hot cargo hOycottS,
farmer, for instance, may suffer severe
financial loss because his goods are de-
clared "hot' at marketing centers if they
were carried by non-union truck firms.
Both secondary picketing and not
cargo practices have been used time ana
again. as we in Imperial county know
of our own experience in instances where
there was no labor dispute IN progress,
nor even a hint of labor trouble. They
have been used to force men into labor
union who had expressed the desire to
remain free agents.
We believe any man who desires to
Join union has the right to do So with
out being penalized for it. And we be
lieve, also, that any man has the right to
refuse to join union if he wishes, and
should not be penalized for his refusal
Passage of the hot cargo bill Is
forward step toward sensible labor peace
in California. We do not believe 1t Will
interfere with the rights Of labor unions
to organize, to bargain and to strike.
We do believe It will protect the rights OF
those who equally with union members,
deserve protection

WASHINGTON. June 7 - II this
signs-of the times department in
terprets correctly, there is increas-
ing belief in some sections that
the American defense effort is
stuck in the mud and muck of
petty intrigue.
If you believe all these portentS,
Q. cross section picture of WASH
inston today is something like this:
Army brass hats won't speak 10
Navy goldbraiders because the Ma
w claims it's all ready for any
thing. but has to mark time walt
ing for Army to catch up
Army and Navy are both jealous
OF Knudsen's Office of Production
Management and of the advisory
authority which OPM business
men have ever the contract-let-
ting of the armed services.
CPM dollar-a-year men, on the
other hand are supposed to be
shipping at the Army and Navy
because they arc bottlenecks, hold
ing up the awards of contracts nee
esSary to putting the defense pro-
duction machinery in high gear.
New Dealers are yapping at OPM
men supposed to be reluctant to
scrap their business as usual" be-
liefs and increase the productive
plant of the country SO that all
out, 24-hour, seven-day defense
can get going.
And Army, Navy, OPM and all
the manufacturers in the land
charge the New Dealers are cod
ding labor, patronizing strikes,
compromising with economy for
the benefit of a bunch of no-ac-
count reliefers while Labor coun-
ter-charges that OPM and the bus
mess men are using national de-
fense as a vehicle to recoup profits
and once more grow fat and sassy
at the expense of the woiking
peepuls,
In the meantime, the President
sits back with too many reins
in his hands to do an effective job
from the drivers seat.
PLENTY OF SELF-CRITICISM
If this were indeed the true pic
ture of Washington today, the best
procedure would seem to be Civ
ing up completely and asking Ger
many for terms, and just how
much without either intent to
white-WaSh or smear with the dou-
Bile cross of red or brown paint.
the scene Is in one sense the blind
folded, battle royal. free-for- all
slugging and back -stabbing braWl
previously portrayed.
If some of these self f-appointed
critics, knowitalls and bellyachers
were given the job to step in and
show how the defense effort should
be run, then you would see con-
fusion.
The truth is that no one ele-
ment of national defense is salts

fled with its own efforts.
Army and Navy procurement and
supply officers are extremely cri-
tical of what they have done so
far. The Army points juStifiably to
what happens when you put on too
much speed. let contracts too fast
and without examination or IN
spection In cases of that kind,
where Army contract officers have
been told to shoot the works and
never mind the cost, they get ma
tional disgraces like Camp Bland
ing built in a swamp. Fort Meade
built on the wrong site to save
golf course at a cost of $40 million
too much, or Fort Leonard Wood,
which is one of the sorriest jobs
Of land gouging III public records.
With those examples before you,
il you were an army contract Of
ficer, would you sign a Sl00 million
order for a new munitions plant
with your eyes shut?
Similarly, no outfit in Washing
ton has subjected itself to critic
.sm and internal rows more than
OPM. Donald Nelson. head of pur-
chaseS and William L. Bait, deputy
director of production, have been
two of the most vociferous expon-
entS of doing a real job on defense,
forgetting normal business for the
duration.
Labor leaders have had to ad-
nit their inability to keep rank
and file unions in line on defense
Jobs. Labor itself is split down the
middle
THERE COMES A TIME
So without apologizing for the
mistakes made, it is entirely rea-
Soable to say that all this critic
ism is healthy sign. When a
trainer is conditioning a fighter
for his big battle, there comes
time when the fighters nerves
are all on edge. He crabs at the
food, murders his sparring part
ners, snaps at his pappy and fires
his manager every day. Maybe
we're in that process.
Navy claims it is ahead of sche-
dule Oh all defense work.
As to the Armv'S record in con-
tracing for its tremendous ex-
-pansion, 81 per cent of all the
money appropriated to it has been
placed on contract and the re-
mainder is under negotiation. For
the year ending June 80, Congress
has authorized money for the
Army in an original and five sup
Elemental bills, totaling $6.6 bill
lions, SO per cent of the contracts
have been let. The fourth ana
fifth supplemental bills have been
passed less than seven weeks, yet
for all six bills, 96 per cent of the
air contracts have been let, 90 per
cent of the ordnance contracts
have been let, and 100 per cent of
the contracts for new facilities
have been let

THE PUBLIC IS NOT
'COMPLACENT
(San Francisco News)

Washington dispatches quote an au-
thoritative source" as explaining that the
Presidents unlimited emergency declar-
alton was designed largely for It's psy-
Geological effect'-that "the Admins
tration wants to get the people away
from the complacent business as usual
ideal and to impress on labor that TINS
is 10 time for work stoppageS.
We wonder whether this does not ac-
count for the sense of national letdown
that has followed the Presidents Speech,
for the expressions of heightened battle
ment and confusion we hear.
The people, we believe. were already
ahead of the Administration. They knew
that this country was up against an un-
limited national emergency. What they
wanted was not more eloquent words,
nor a proclamation subtly designed to
affect their psychology.
What they wanted was concrete evld-
ence that the Administration had got IT
self away from the complacent business
as usual" idea and was at last determined
to do whatever was necessary, and all
that was necessary, to swing Americas S
full capacity into production for defense.
The public has seen production am
peded by strikes in defense Industries,
and such strikes actually encouraged by
Administration spOkesmen who said re-
peatedly that these work stoppages were
doing no great harm and must not be
used as an excuse for restricting organlz-
ed labor's freedom of action.
1t is something that the President now
officially recognizes the menace III the
strikes. and appeals to labor and capital
to end them. But unless teeth are put
into the appeal-unless it is made clear
that the President is not begging for
industrial peace, but demanding 1.-THE
public will find it difficult to believe
that the Administration is ready to sub
ordinate all else to the urgency OF de-
fense.
The President revealed that ''the pres
ent rate of Nazi sinking is more than
twice the combined British and Ameri-
can output of merchant ships today
Suppose he had added:
Yet. despite this tragic situation, II
American shipyards, working on half a
billion dollars worth of defense orders,
are tied up by a strike which even the
leaders of the AFL repudiate and de-
plore.
"Such strike must not continue, and
| will use the full force of my office tc
see that it does not continue. demand
in the name of national safety that this
strike end tonight-and if it does not
end, will back up my demand with i'm
mediate action"
The effect on the country would have
been electric. The great majority even
of organized labor's rank and file would
have welcomed such an utterance as evld-
ence that at last the Administration had
rejected 'business as usual in favor of
defense to the utmost.
This country wants production-not
talk. 1t wants attention to the home
front. How can we hope to stop dictators
abroad unless we find way to stop de-
Tense strikes here?

Notes


 The first round is ended and Ed KosloSky and Art Wunsch are to be congratulated for hav:1g finished on top. Their success was due to being conSiStent-ard from threats that they have made, there will be no play of because they expect to win the second round also.
 There were two surprises in the leaguet during the first half--one being the fact that OLoughlin- Blansfield finished in tie for sec- ond place and the other that Kues- ter-Re1d finished next to the last From all appearances, early in the round, 1t seemed that these positions would have beent reversed.
 The matches during the second round will be played on the second nine and most of the boys who have been hitting in the high 40s and low sos are due for some surprises. The majority of the players will be pleased, after the first two weeks, il they finish up in the high sos.
 A new rule has been put into eff. feet for the second round which wiD be strictly enforced. This rule elimi. mates the possibility of using sub. stitute. If man on any team can. not be present when the match is to be played, no one can take his place and his average must be used.

TOM COLLINS COOL
 AS BATTLE WEARS

Tom Collins, the colored clouter with those roly-boly eyes, has the opening spot on the Irish Eddie Dolan and Saverio Tllriello show Thursday night at Randolph-C Gloves Stadium which means that Al Cas- tonguay of Holyoke will have a little dark dynamite on his hands, for when Thomas has an idea he can defeat, anyone, like Max Baer, he is tough customer to get past. Collins, no relation to the famous summer drink, feels that he can put the clamps on Castonguay early, and may hypnotic him in the bargain, for if Al is follish enough to look into Collins protruding orbs, what will happen to him is a blessing disguised as Evil Eye Finkle, com pared to what will be forthcoming from Collins leather-bound mitts. Black Tom is about as easy to hit as a moonbeam if you are using an air rifle, and when he says fleet, get going" 1t is the firm belief of the writer that lightning could not catch Jul with him.
 Eddie Dolan has not had a fight since he defeated Carl Dell in this city, which means that he better get his bearings quickly against Saverio Tlriello, of Italy, who in 1886 defeated Andrew Jesserun, lost to Jimmy Leto, beat Cocoa Kid on August 16. i037 at Baltimore and is credited with two wins over 8 nifty welterweight, Milt Aaron of Chicago.

YOUNGSTERS GET JOBS:
 COACHES SEE MATERIAL

You probably didn't suspect you would ever see basketball coach wearing a straw hat. The game is associated with gymnasiums, Madi- son Square Garden and wintry blasts.
 But there is plenty of skillful shooting going on while the gen. tie breezes blow at Manhattan Beach.
 It gives youngsters an opportun- ity for jobs in department stores and such which are represented. College coaches get a good line on material.
 Summer basketball is doing more than all right at Manhattan Beach, where 1t has no less than ST other activities in the way of competition.
 Think what it will do when it starts sweeping the country with nothing much in the way of counter attractions.
