Look To
Your Leaders!
BY RUTH TAYLOR

From the beginning of time the fav-
orite alibi of man, nation or a
race, for going astray has been the
detection of the leader. He was the
one to blame. He was the sin. The
others simply followed. But that is
one alibi that just does not hold water
in a democratic society. For where the
people determine upon their leader
he is their servant, not their boss
their representative, not their fuehrer,
and he must be made to realize this!
In this hour when Labor is being
severely criticized because of the mis-
deeds of some Of its leaders, it doesn't
matter how comparatively few these
traitors to trade unionism are. 1t does
matter that this condition exists at
all, for Labor elects it's own leaders.
Wherever corrupt or dishonorable
or self-seeking leader is in authority
he STAYS there with the consent or
through the toleration of those who
placed him in such a position-or
which is most usual-through their in
can't have an honest horse race until
you have an honest human race" And
you can't have honest and honorable
| leaders unless the honest and honor
able people will get out and put then
into power and help them in every way
to carry out their appointed tasks.
The crying need of the world today
| is leadership--in international rela-
tions, in national affairs, in local Of
fices-and in all branches of our daily
| life. Good leaders are hard to fine
because the task Of conscientious
| honest, objective leadership is diff
cult, thankless one. As a people We
are to apt to put up with mediocritA
rather than to get out and bestir our
selves to find, men, who can properly
represent us. We are too easily anC
too often taken in by glib tongue
and easy, confident manner.
Organiged Labor must remembe
that its leaders represent the entir'
movement-thatt they are the embodi
ment of the things for which trad'
unionism stands, of the principles il
which organized worltingmen believe
You, the rank and file Of Labor, cal
get rid of dishonest or self-seekinl
leaders if you want to. 1t is up t
you to clean your own house of those
whose major interests is their own
profit or ACKNOWLEDGMENT, for other
wise the work will be done from out
side-perhaps unfairly and probably
in ways you won't like.
| All reform movements must come
from beneath, and it is the rank anC
file of Labor who must speak out. You
must select as leaders men of whos'
integrity you are sure. Once you have
found such men, you must back then
wholeheartedly, in action as well a
i'm speech. If the leaders turn out well
you can take the credit If they turl
out badly-there is no alibi, for yo'
chose them. As long as you tolerat
such leaders and do not take steps t
replace them, you remain responsible
Look to your leaders!

Teurnsters Bldst
Neglect OF
HighwdY SdfetY

Atlanta, Ga.-(FP). - Despite ap-
peals from the Southern Conference OF
Teamsters (AFL) to the law enforce
ment agencies of 10 southern states,
highways in the south are still a haz-
ard for night drivers, the Southern
Teamsters charged here.
A survey taken by the conference
official newspaper last April show
ed that traffic supervision had bog
ged down completely, that highways
were cluttererd with unlighted We
hicles, frequently parked on the pave
ment, and that 6095 Of the vehicles
operated at night other than common
carriers had improper headlights, tail
lights or no lights at all.
Since then only steps taken have
been desultory arrests of speeders
while the disregard of safety precau-
tions has grown even more fragrant,
with a resultant large increase in ac-
cidents.
In discussing the condition, the
Southern Teamster said: "In the IL
southern states, the log-rolling and
political activities which ! surround
the enforcement agencies through nc
fault of their own began after VI
Day. Policing activities began to take
their usual prewar form, namely, ar
resting motorists, both pleasure and
commercial, for violation nof speed
laws.
Little or no attention was paid to
those important things whose disre-
gard is causing so many fatalities
the checking of brakes and the check
ing of lights to make sure that equip
ment is able to stop and is plainly Wis
ibe on the highways at night" Speed
violations actually are the least cause
of accidents and resulting fatalities,
the paper said.

Miners Journal Says
Burke Firing Means
Operators. Will Fight
BY The Asseeiotsd Press

The United Mine Workers Jour-
nal, in the first issue since the
recent coal strike began, said today
the firing" Of Edward r. Burke as
president of the Southern Coal
Producers Association was open
notice that this group Is ready to
do battle"
The Journal, which normally ap-
pears twice monthly. suspended pub
lication December / because Of the
injunction in District Court which
Union President John L. Lewis in
terpreted as prohibition against
publication.
Mr.. Burke's resignation from the
presidency of the Southern group
was accepted December 3, a few
days after he had suggested the
operators try to negotiate q new
contract with Mr.. Lewis.
Restrictive Laws Sought.
The Journal carried an editorial
today captioned "Mr. Burke gets
the gate"
Burke developed the theory that
the way to break the miners union
was by legislation" the Journal said.
"He wanted the Wagner Act
amended, the Norris-La Guardia
Act amended, laws passed to pro-
hibit foremen from organizing, and
all sorts of restrictive measures
which he thought he had sold the
operators as the only way to ac-
complish their desired ends.
"But the Southern operators tired
of waiting through this long process.
They want to engage in direct ac-
ton. They want open warfare-and
the Southern operators are expert
enced in open warfare. -"
Refers to End Of Strike.
"And SO the firing OF Mr.. Burke
Is open notice to the Nation that
the Southern coal operators are
ready to do battle. >"
AS to the sudden ending of the
coal strike, the Journal had this to
say in another article:
Government intervention and
court proceedings had crystalized
into such an overall blockade to
negotiating a contract that there
was nothing left for the UMWA to
do other than act upon its own.
President Lewis took matters in
hand and decided to act while at
torneys for the UMWA were closeted
with Chief Justice Vinson . .. 1t
required courage and craftsmanship
to call off the work stoppage in the
face of all the legal entanglements

|LADY'S ARM WAS
BENT UP DOUBLE
LIKE A JACK-KNIFE

One lady recently stated that her
arm used to become doubled up like
a jack-knife. She couldn't move her
arm up or down because her mus
cles were stiff with rheumatic pains
and the joints of her elbow and
shoulder were swollen. She said she
was ashamed to leave her house be-
cause people would stare at her.
Finally she got RHU-AID and says
she now can raise her arm above her
head and the swelling left her elbow
and shoulder. The awful pain and
stiffness is gone. She is enjoying
life once more and feels like "some
other woman" since taking this New
Compound.
RHU-AID contains Three Great
Medicinal Ingredients which go right
to the very source of rheumatic
aches and pains. Miserable people
soon feel different all over. So don't
go on suffering! Get RHU-AID.

water was over the main highways,

"Only one-way traffic was permit

Water flooded the fields on each side
