II Pays. Too

Its always q pleasure to announce
an extra dividend
Right now. it looks as though the
new policy of American exporters
in turning away from Latin Amer
ican distributors who use their bus
mess to play the Axis game is going
to pay its first extra.
The regular dividends began at
once in taking business, and there
fore profits and money. away from
South and Central Americans
agents and distributors known t.
be sympathetic to and actively
working for the Axis in thise coun-
tries-and also working against the
United States, whose goods they
were selling and whose profits they
were taking BY transfer of these
agencies and this business to agents
either neutral. loyal only to their
native countries. or if possible
friendly toward the United States,
a good dividend was declared at
the start.
Further, protection was gained
against a postwar time when Ger
man and italian goods will again
flood Latin America, and distribu-
tors favorable to them would prob
ably toss aside American goods and
push those of the totalitarians
(which they would be doing right
now except that they can't get
them.D
But there's been an extra divi-
dend, too. Many exporters hesitated
to change agencies. fearing that ne
other satisfactory repre- sentation
could be had. Fears along that line
have been removed by the dis
closure before the foreign credit
interchange bureau of the National
Association of Credit Men, of the
fact that since pro-Nazi and anti
American sales agencies Were re-
placed, sales have risen. One naH-
ufacturer was quoted as saying
that since the reorganization of
our Latin American representation,
We have discovered that we were
getting less than tWo-thirds of the
volume we should have had in
countries where anita m eric n
agents handled Our sales in the
last 10 years.
In other words. Nazi agents in
Latin America weren't breaking
their backs to sell certain American
goods, even when it meant profits
for them which they could use

SHIPS TO SAFETY
christian Science Monitor)

tChrlStlan Science Monltor)
Relief societies in unoccupied France
have pointed to what appears golden
opportunity to aid number of the refu-
gees huddled in that unhappy country
from many parts of Europe.
Early next month"; it is pointed out,
two French ships bringing wheat and
flour from New York will dock at Mar
seille to unload their cargoes Under the
conditions by which they were allowed to
pass the British blockade they are in
tended to return to America in ballast.
But surely there could be no objection
if they should bring back human freight
of wholesome freedom-loving men, wom-
ell, and children who have fled the total
itarian scourge
The quota would be made up, it is said
of persons who hold both American vsas
and French exit permits. Among these
people are noted liberals who have resist
ed totalitarianism in their home coun-
tries and are marked for vengeance by
the secret police The Government at
Vichy already has had to give up a few
of their comrades on demands of the
Nazis.
To bring as many as possible of the
eligible refugees to the United States
would help relieve the very pressure on
French food supplies which the grain
cargoes of the two ships are meant to
assuage.

WE WANT NO
ORGANIZING STRIKE

If the men who work in imperial Val
ley's melon packing sheds want higher
wages or better working conditions, that
is matter strictly between themselves
and the shippers.
But if paid labor organizers want to
stir up trouble in the valleys sheds for
the sole reason of increasing union mem
bership, that is a matter in which the
interests of the two contending parties
become secondary to the rights of the pub
lie.
The shed workers have the moral right
to demand higher wages if they believe
they are entitled to them, or if they be-
.lieve the shippers are making an eXhorbi-
tant profit out of their labor. The ship
pers, on the other hand have the right
to resist such demands if they believe
them to be unfair, or if they would cause
economic hardship. In such situation,
no outsider without expert knowledge
of both sides has any right to criticize.
But where the men and women of the
sheds are satisfied with their wages and
working conditions, and where the ship
pers are attempting honestly to pay fair
wages and provide good conditions, there
should be no room for a labor dispute.
We believe that is the case IN Imperial
Valley today.
Tuesday nights meeting of shed work
ers at Imperial seemed the best possible
indication that the employees want only
to be left alone to deal for themselves
with their employers. If their vote was
representative of the majority-and we
firmly believe It was-then the public
has every moral and economic right to
demand that paid outsiders refrain from
causing trouble where no trouble is
wanted.
In the recent lettuce strike. we saw
how tiny minority could prevent great
majority from going TO work in the sheds.
The laboring man is great reSpector OF
picket lines. He may not approve OF
them, but he will not pass them. And,
if he does, he is liable to such harsh retri-
button as only the racketeers among un-
ionists know how to inflict.
1t appears now that, if picket line
is established before the Imperial Valley
melon industry, it will be nothing more
and women who would rather go their
asking important wage concessions. It is
not complaining about working condi
tions It's chief goal is a union shop in
which no man could work more than six
days without applying for union men,
bership.
Not for the sake Of the shipper, but
for the sake of the man who will lose his
wages and gain nothing if strike IS
called, we believe the public IS justified
in demanding that the shed employees be
permitted to follow their own wishes
refuse to strike if they wish Cor strike,
if they wish) We believe anV decision
that is made should come from the en-
ployes themselves

AFTER The WAR,
MAYBE WELL KNOW

The flight of Rudolf Hess from Ber
lin to Scotland is an event that intrigues
the mind, leading it to endless specula-
ton, opening up all sorts of wierd pos
sibilities.
No matter what its cause or purpose,
it is an event that will stand out in any
history of World War No. 2, for its dram
attic qualities are equalled by its political
significance.
In the months to come, if we read
keenly, we may be able to see some glim
rner of the results of Hess flight. But
it will not be until the war is ended.
and the secrets of today opened up to
public gaze, that we can hope 70 know of
a certainty why Hess left Berlin, and
why he landed in Scotland.

PROFITEERING STRIKE
CRIPPLES SHIPYARDS

(0rovllle Mercury Register)
With Herbert Hoover declaring that
we are not united for war, with Lind
bergh stating that we will be humiliated
and with Wheeler saying all that and
more, the machinists union in San Fran
cisco calls its men out on strike to dem
onstrate that all these statements are
true.
The cold facts in the San Francisco
strike are these:
The men, working on cruisers and de-
stroyers for the United States fleet. go
on strike demanding an increase of 3
cent an hour in wages. They are getting
SLIP They want S1.15. Also they de-
clare that if they are to work overtime
they must have $3.50 an hour instead of
S1,68.
The strike is crippling in its effect.
If the machinists won't work, then soon
the boilermakers won't be able to work,
and so on along the line.
Our nation needs to increase its navy
at top speed, for soon we may be facing
greater navies than ours on beth coasts,
but these men will not work more than
8 hours day, days week unless
they are paid $3.50 an hour!
If that isn't war profiteering, find us
something that s If it is not profiteer-
ing it SINNERS down to disloyalty.
If any group dared put such a pro-
posal forward in Hitler's Germany the
ringleaders would be singled out and
either placed in concentration camps
or slain. Then the remainder would go

petition we face in shipbuilding and air.

Certainly, We are not prepared for
war and are not united. And we never
shall take the situation in hand until we
are actually in a shooting war and the
general public has come to realize that
our national existence is at stake That
may be too late. 1t has been too late
with all the other nations.
