A BROTHERHOOD LOSS

'NHE Brotherhood mourns the loss of friend.
Perhaps that is not quite correct, because the
organization lost more than friend in the pass
ing of Sheldon Moore in Trenton last month end
it lost one of the shining examples of the spirit
and courage that made the National Brotherhood
of Operative Potters.
Possessed of an excellent, alert mind Sheldon
Moore early recognized as an outstanding
personality and union man, being elected to the
Executive Board in 1902. He served in the ca
pacity of either fourth fifth vice president from
that time through 1926 with the exception of a
couple of terms prior to 1914 when he refused to
contest
Shell, as he known, left East Liverpool
with an enviable reputation a generaware
presser to enter sanitary in Trenton His services
to the eastern members did not stop with his
valuable work on the Board or in the local. He
constantly being called upon to aid fellow
workman having difficulty with his ware.
Few have been the men who could trace the
reasons for faulty ware as did Shell Moore. Time
after time he would ferret out causes for the de-
fects which absolved worried and harassed work
ers and place the blame where it properly be-
longed
AS a mechanic he was unsurpassed. His
opinions offered only after deliberate thought
and they were invariably found to be right. No
yes man he held the respect of both workers and
management.
His retirement few years ago was a loss tO
the industry and his death sad blow to the
Brotherhood which enriched by his flaming
spirit and courage but his example will undoubt-
edly continue to aid in the building of a greater

"DOLLARS CANNOT BUY YESTERDAY"

A journalist, looking back upon the year which
has Just closed, finds an intinlty of matters
about which to write A great war; which is in
essence titanic struggle between two rreconcil-
able PHILOSOPHERS of life, has steadily spread. A
whole continent has felt the boot of con-
queror with plan for world dominion as vast as
that of Napoleon. The worlds economy has un-
dergone violent change, and stability has been re-
placed by chaos.
Here in our own country we have recently
gone through the most tradition -shattering
election in history. The great issues of that
election three-fod. First, whether to elect
a president for It third term. Second, how to keep
America at peace while aiding England with all
steps short Of war. Third, how to best build a
military and naval establishment unprecedented
in our history.
The second and third issues are the most vital
this country faces today. They are not partisan
issues.
1t is obvious to anyone not blinded by false
and baSelcSS optimism that the great plans of last
summer for building mpregnable defense at
once are not being realized 1t is easy to appro-
pirate gigantic sums Of money 1t is easy to make
blueprnts Of tanks and arplanes and fighting
ships. 1t is easy to have a great defense estab-
liShment ION order" But dollars and blueprintS
do not worry potential invaders. The forces which
have again brought the world to Armagcddon
have respect only for preparedness. The weak are
given no quarter Moral principles, Christian
teachings, are scotled at. That is not pretty. But
it is true
This America we know cannot be sure of cX-
istence unless it solves the problem of how to
swiftly build our defenseS-and to build them in
keeping with the democratic tradition which they
are designed to protect and to save. All the pro-
ductiveness of this nation is needed noW-of
capital of industry, Of government, of labor. The
industralist who seeks outrageous profits the Of
fetal who plays politics in time Of danger; the la
Dor leader who Is not worthy OF his ttle-cannot
be tolerated. We must never forget that we can
be destroyed from within no less than from with
out.
The American people cannot accept failure
from any man-Whether the man who fails holds
great title or is a lOWy worker in factory
There is excuse for failure. No nation in the
world is potentially productive as ours. None

INTER- AMERICAN LABOR

By William Green in American Federatonist)
| ABOR of the United States has for number
- of years realized the need for contracts with
Labor of Latin-American countries and for an or
ganization to deal with common problems and to
promote common interests. Such an organization
was begun in 1919 and is an essential in the pres
ant situation not only for the protection of labor
but for the maintenance Of democratic institu-
tions. international cooperation choose Of
two pathWays-the familiar pattern of empire
dominated by one race or democratic participation
with opportunity for all and special privilege to
none.
A strong international labor organization rep
resenting bonafide labor organizations of all coun-
tries, is the most effective power to keep inter-
national cooperation in the democratic pathway.
We need such an organization for strengthen
ing the labor organizations of all countries as well
as to provide adequate representation for the
wage-earners of all lands in the agencies of inter-
American cooperation in all fields.
In spite of differences in language and culture,
working people throughout the Americas can join
hands in the spirit of fellowship and for the main
|tenance of freedom for all.

less than riches of wealth and of natural re-
sources. In this crisis, we shall really learn the
calibre of our people and our public men.
1t is said of France that, in preparing to resist
aggression, her movement, her industries and her
workers did ''too little-and did it too late" We
too are doing too little. But let us hope that we
correct our errors before it is too late When the
head of our Navy observed that dollars cannot
buy yesterday" he stated grim truth that every
American must realize.
In this great national effort there can be no
failure. The thought cannot be tolerated that
Democracy here has fallen on such evil days that
it cannot compete with the dictators. In Eng
land we have magnificent example of what free
men, fighting to retain that freedom, can &C
complish against heartbreaking Odds
1t was Winston Churchill who said on taking
office that he could offer his people nothing save
sacrifice and sweat and toll Here we must alb
sorb an ample measure of that spirit No one
else can make our sacrifices for us. The respon-
sibility for the perpetuation of our way of life
falls squarey and irrevocably on the shoulders of
us all. No one can avoid it.
To say that we have now entered on the most
critical years modern Western civilization has
ever known, is to simply state the obvious. We
10 not know how much time will have to make
ourselves secure to guarantee peace in the only
way possible in this disrupted modern world,
which is by making ourselves so strong that no
aggressor possible combination Of aggressors
will dare to try our strength. We do know that
time, most precious of all elements must no longer
be lavishly wasted.
To stay at peace-to become strong. Those are
our national objectves. We have the great in
dustres-we have the men-we have almost
limitless resources. To attain those vital goals
demands the full and friendly cooperation of gov
ernment, of labor of industry, of agriculture, of
all. We must not be tried and found wanting.

NO-STRIKE ADVOCATES ANSWERED

PROM time to time, for half century or more,
forbdding Of strikes by law has been urged
by reactonary forces. The scheme has never
gotten anywhere and never will, except under a
dictatoria form of government. But the no
strike advocates persistent and never weary
of boosting their plan. Now they think the natl
onal defense program offers favorable oppOr-
tunity to promote no-strike, compulsory arbitra-
tion legislation and they are in full cry again
crushing answer to their propaganda is
given by the New York State Mediation Board,
in preface to it's annual report. In brief, the
board champions voluntary action for solving in
dustrial disputes and says collective bargaining,
Incorporating adequate adjustment machinery,
provides the most adequate method yet devised''
for promoting industrial peace.
The boards conclusion is based on experience
in New York, the nations largest industrial state.
1t should furnish conclusive answer to the cry
for anti-strikc legislation.

AAA Pays Sl,978.653
To g Insurance Firms

Washington, D. C.-The extent to
which insurance companies have
taken over and operate farm proper
ties in mortgage foreclosures was re-
vealed in the report of Secretary
Wickard of the Department Of Agri-
culture that nine insurance companies
during the last fiscal year were paid
81 ,97S,653 in agricultural adjustment
payments under the Agricultural Ad-
justment Act.
The Metropolitan Life Insurance
Co. of New York received the largest
sum, $346,773. The only other bene-
fciary in the $3C0,0OO class was the
Equitable Life Insurance Society of
the United States, New York, which
was paid $305,491. Payments to the
other insurance companies ranged
from S263,322 to $1l9,334.

PUSH ORGANIZATION NOW

MORE than ever before 19i1 will be q time for
AA the organization Of new unions and for the
strengthening of old ones.
Today labor has the free opportunity to or
ganiZe. Perhaps even more important than that,
labor take part in the new control of industry
ONLY If IT IS ORGANIZED.
The lone and lonesome worker is out of the
picture. This is the great day of organization. We
are entering a period of industrial control, through
organization, greater than what has gone before.
If you are not in union, you are merely be-
hind the parade. You are out of it. You are on
the sidenes, merely an onlooker.
Get into an American Federation of Labor un-
ion today. If there is in your trade or Occu-
patton, write to the A. +. of l.. at Washington or
90 to the central labor body in your community
for advice.
GET INTO A UNION, WHERE YOU COUNT
FOR SOMETHING!

FRUITS OF ARBITRATION
(From the Washington, d. c.. Post

FrOm The Washington, D. c. Post)
DAY increases for 5000 employees Of the Capital
Transit Co. will be particularly welcome at
this time of the year. From the public viewpoint
however, the method by which these increases
We're attained is Of greater significance than the
small additions to many workmen's salaries.
Differences between the company and the To-
cal branch of the Amalgamated Association of
Street, Electric Railway and Motor Coach Work
erS were settled by an arbitration board which
conducted hearings for more than month The
result is typical of what can be accomplished
when management and labor lay their cards on
the table and seek reasonable djustment of diff
feIences with the aid Of experts.

Gangsters take advantage of the

There can be no question now but
what Britain means to see this war
through to the finish. The recent pro-
posal in Parliament that the war be
ended through compromise which
was massacred by a 341 to a vote,
shows the way the wind blows.
Britain feels that she can win-that
it may take years, but that eventually
she will destroy Nazism and Fascism
in every particular. Her leaders,
such as the tremendous Churchill, be-
lieve that only if this is done can the
Empire survive and be secure. Com

The production indexes continue to
rise. Despite that, the feeling grows
that the defense program is moving
too slowly. The appointment of Mr..
knudScn as head of the defense COM
mittee should help to speed matters.
But he has not been given sweeping
powers. Official Washington is ex-
tremely confused, and is not getting
results.
Public lethargy is factor here.
The almost unanimous public cooper
alton that built our army in record
time in 1917 does not exist today.
Students of the situation say that
we are depending to too great an ex-
tent on England, figuring that she
will win this war and keep us Sc
cure. No great nation can safely de-
pend on the fighting power of another
nation. In the long run it can de-
pend only on itself, as is demon
strated in England today. This
country, they argue, can escape war
and possible defeat only if it builds
its military and naval defense to the
point where no other country will
dare to attack it.
