Byrd Says British
Should Be Warned
To Shun u. 5. Politics
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Senator Byrd, Democrat, of Vir-
ginia suggests that British authori-
ties should be told that "the Amer
ican people bitterly resent" any for
eign interference with their politics
He made the remark yesterday in
telling the Senate of the disposition
of his recent complaint that a Brit
ish Ministry of Information pam
phlet distributed to American troops
in England carried story that op-
ponentS of President Roosevelt were
prepared to spend 10000, ,0O0 to de-
feat him.
Suggests Correction Needed.
Senator Byrd said he had been
assured by the British United Press
source of the story, that it was writ
ten in New York by an employe who
made the estimate himself in viola
ton of policy and that it would
not happen again.
Senator Brewster, Republican, OF
Maine suggested that correction
of the story should be carried to
show British good faith, and Sena-
tor Byrd agreed.
The Virginian also told of hear
ing of a postage-free OPA publica-
ton in Georgia which suggested
Americans thank God for President
Roosevelt and administration agen-
cies from NRA down to OPA. He
said Price Administrator Chester
Bowles had disciplined the man re-
sponsible for the printing by re-
quiring him to pay the costs of
publication, but added he believed
he should have been dismissed.
Says Reprints Widely Circulated.
Senator Byrd said the Atlanta
Office of the OPA had distributed to
800 local rationing boards, "as an
official communication" reprints of
a letter to the Atlanta Journal from
G.. G. Adams, Social Circle, Ga.

ON ARTICLE

zine appears unable to find space to
print a letter, written month ago
protesting Time article entitled 1.-THE
Cotton Grab, the National Farmers
Union makes it public herewith The
letter was addressed to Time by the
NFU legislative secretary, Russell
Smith. The letter is as follows:
"Sir:
"Footnotes to Times footnoted Got
ton Grab" article in the issue of Octo-
Der 9:
81. The title would have fitted bet
ter an article on the grab made by
the cotton textile industry, cotton
spectators, and brokers beyond the
point of original purchase from farm
ers. This grab has extended over a
three-year period, beginning with the
delay in enactment of the
first price control act, delay that
insured the reaping of harvest by
cotton spectators at the expense of
cotton farmers. 1t eliminated with
the revision of the Price Control Act
last June, when congress required
ceiling prices on cotton to be high
enough on each principal manufac-
tured item to reflect" parity to cot
ton farmers. The sole result of this
legislation was to enable textile mills
to add new profits. In effect, then,
the entire cotton industry during this
period has found way of Haunting the
expressed desire of congress that
farmers themselves actually receive
parity prices. Why does Time accuse
farmers of making grab" now when
the very action that Time criticizes
was rendered necessary by the whole
sale grabs made previously at their
expense. Does Time contend that
farmers should NOT receive parity
prices?
''2. Times slurs on Sen. John H.
Bankhead are wholly unwarranted by
fact. Senator Bankhead's course in
relation to cotton prices has been con-
sistently aimed at attempting to give
cotton farmers themselves parity
prices. His efforts have been de-
feated by failure of cooperation on
the part of the cotton industry, the
sver-hanging cotton surplus, and lack

Dramatic Story Of
Labor's Struggles
In Pesotta Book
BY MORRIS MILGRAM
National Secretary, Workers
Defense League

The stirring tale of the rise of or
ganized labor during the past decade
is dramatically told by Rose Posetta,
for ten years the only woman vice
president of the International Ladies'
Garment Workers Union, in her book,
Bread Upon the Waters" just pub
lished by Dodd-Mead (S3.)
She relates in 405 swiftly moving
pages why and how workers organ
ize, and deals with the fight for la
boris rights from the human side. The
reader is led to picketline and strike
and hears the Akron rubber
strikers singing Justify, mo, no, a
tmies no, I'd rather be dead
than a scabi" The AFL-CIO contro-
versy is discussed, with well-drawn
pictures of the formation of the CLIO,
to whose organization drives Miss
Pesotta was lent by the ILGWU.
Exploitation of Mexican and Chi
nese workers on the West Coast and
of negro workers elsewhere was COM
batted by that International, and the
story of the struggle against inhuman
sweatshop conditions is just one of
many phases of Bread Upon the
Waters" which make 1t valuable read
ing for everyone who wants to under
stand labor, whether student or union
st, minister or lawyer. But more
-ha nthat, it is a handbook for labor
organizers who want ideas for more
affective trade uniOnism
This book is especially important
because it was written by a unionist
employed in industry. In 1912, Miss
oesotta returned voluntarily to her
rade, and nightly, after working all
lay at a sewing machine, she wrote

On Nov. IL, in ceremonies marking
