ASSEMBLY SCORED
 BY CIO LEADER
Sutherlin Lists Six Points
 to Show Deficiencies of l94l Legislature

Calvin J. Sutherlin. legislative agent for the state CI.O. and for LNbot"s Non Partisan League, today issued 0 statement attacking the l04i General Assembly, Listing major fields In which the legislature was ct fault, he declared that 1t would have been Just as well had 1t never convened"
 The six points listed by Suther- In are as follows:
 %. Labor standards were weak ened by the act giving employers the right to work women after 10 o'clock at night.
 "2. Tho Assembly failed to pass Q good state labor relations act based upon the national act. 1n- stead the Senate unanimously passed what Is now generally recogiSed as m act to hamString labor. They then attempted to save face by bringing up another labor relations act when all labor legislation was already subordinated to the ques- ton of political patronage.
 "S. The legislature failed to raise the standards of unemployment compensation and old age assistance to tho amount that Is clearly neces- sary and justifiable.
 "4. 8hey failed even to pass enabling legislation for fair rent control boards, In spite of the in- creasingly serious nature of the housing shortage in defense areas,
 "5, Both Republicans and Dem- ocrats failed to do anything material about discrimination in employment, housing, and civil rights against our Negro people and other n,inor!ties.
 "6. It Is also interesting to note that the legislature only raised It's voice once to memorabilia the Con- gress of the United States for pas sage of legislation. This was not to urge repeal of the undemocratic poll tax or Just tax program based on ability to pay, or more adequate W.P.A. funds, or @ solution to the critical housing problem and the high cost of living. Instead they voiced only demand for passage of the lease lend bill 1776 which public opinion had already rejected as a measure which will injure our democracy and lead us Into war"

It was optimistically said that these measures would improve workers morale and consequently production. But not for long, Blum's government fell in June, 1887, and Premier Daladier took charge only to see war defense production and export production both falling.
 When Blum came back as Pre-" Taier in March, 1888, he desperately sought national unity. The General Confederation of Labor and General Confederation of Employers both pledged themselves to harmony for production Of 4,500, 100000 francs worth of newly-authorized war material-mostly for the air force.
 But soon again 30,000 metal work CTS were on strike. Blume fell in April, 1888, and Daladier again took over, Partially foreseeing the future Daladier warned that France is lost If she does not work normally"
 On November l2, 1888, he ordered by degree that for the next three years there should be e five-anda. half day week, that employers could enforce Q 50-hour week with in- creased wages. Workmen who refus. ed could instantly he dismissed and would lose unemployment benefits

for six months
 But France was again stricken with work stoppage. When the gov- ernment started to clear out sit- down strikers in an artillery plant at Call the General Confederation of Labor ordered a one-day nation. wide strike for November 30. It was Q f7zle.
 In 1889 the war clouds became more orninous. To placate the work CTS, the government announced 1t would tax the profits of armament makers from 50 to 30 per cent, In addition to the normal tax. But labor did not give the needed pro. duotion. Tn the semi-nationali2ed aviation industry, brought about by a Blum law, production was sadly tagging in view of the enormous airplance force of Germany. Tn April 30 planes were delivered, 100 in May and nearly 200 In June. Tn Mid- August, e bare three weeks before France and Germany were at war, the French cabinet announced a program of 5000 planes per year, Soon it was too late. France entered the war short of tanks, short of afr planes, short of anti-craft and anti- tank guns.

 Blum said his immediate objec- tive was Q New Deal program that would include bills for a forty -hour week, collective bargaining, two weeks vacation with pay for workers, By the time the parliamentary ses- sion ended in August, 1886, these bills had become law,
 In addition Blum broke the "grip' of Frances so-called "200 families" on the Bank of France tand through 1t on French industrial life) by a law which enabled him to name Q new Board of Directors for the Bank.

THE OLD COoKY JAR
SNSl BY THE MAN IN THE TOWER

How dear to our hearts the scenes of childhood, The familiar road where neer dashed car, The old country farmhouse with It's wonders Not the least of these the old cooky jarl Sugar and ginger and sometimes raised doughnutS' The stone jar stood on the wide pantry shelf Fresh baked pies facing wide shuttered window, And you slipped in to liberally help yourself, The cooky Jar has passed with other customs To be replaced by caterers pastry box, or fancy biscuits done up in bright tinfof, Supplanting cooky jars and old crooks. And many day when 1t comes late afternoon, Hunger's gnawing appeased by chocolate bar Do you recall with anguish almost poignant The pantry shelf with It's old cooky jarl

In some ways the French story points up the American scene, The two high spots of similarity are:
 (D Leon Blum, Socialist, Premier of a Popular Front coalition of parties of the left, gave France Q series of laws which were called tho French New Deal because they resembled many of Amerioa's New Deal laws.
 (2) Before Blum took office, then after he assumed the premiership and later under his successor, Pre- mier Daladier, the industry of France, particularly that connected with defense, was paraly2ed by strikes-just as American defense industry has been held up by strikes this spring.
