Likewise, the hotel is receiving
some supplies from the same
source, which causes even a great
er surpris to all unionists in the
county.
The reason for these assists" is
said to date back to the nomina-
ton of Mlaricopa county's sheriff
by the county democratic COM
mittee last August, when Cal Boise
was chosen with the assistance of
what the Hotel and Restaurant
Employees and Bartenders Unions
newspaper, Aces, called Jimmie
Minotto's "well gre eased an d
smoothly operating political ma
chine . potentially the most
powerful and perhaps the most
dangerous political instrument in
MaricOpa county"
Whether or not the unions op-
position to the nomination of the
sheriff at that time has anything
to do with actions of deputies of
the department, recently a truck
was checked carrying supplies into
the hotel and the owner of the
truck was listed as M. E. Baskin,
deputy sheriff of Maricopa
county.
Perhaps Mr.. Baskin is in the
trucking business as a side-line
and is not particular where or to
whom he delivers merchandise.
That, however, union members are
not inclined to believe.
Shortly after the strike was
called, the Labor Journal was in
formed that twelve of eighteen"
armed guards were on duty at
the Westward Ho. Calling the
sheriff's office, we were informed
the shriff was not available, but
the deputy in charge of the "situ-
alton" said he didn't think there
were that many guards on duty;
that he did not know who they
were; that the hotel detective had
called for help and that it was the
Sheriff's duty to furnish protec-
ton when it was needed.
He admitted there had been no
trouble at the hotel, but the pur-
pose of the guards was to prevent
trouble. Evidently the hotel detec-
tive had been furnished with the
necessary deputy commissions and
the sheriff'S office did not know
how many were deputized, nor
who they were.
Later a transient girl was picked
up by a special deputy sheriff and
jailed for vagrancy. After being
released to group of Westward
Ho strikers, the girl said it had
been "suggested" to her that she
go to work at the struck hotel.
Such incidents as these are dis
turbing to the entire labor move
ment. Members of organized labor
feel that they are a part of the
general public and are entitled to
some consideration. They feel they
are entitled to an "even break" by
the public officials of the state,
county and city, and that special
privileges should not be bestowed
upon corporations who have trouble
with their workers. These people
on the picket lines at the West
ward Ho are fighting a battle that
is as important to them as is life
itself.
They believe they are justified
in making this fight to protect not
only themselves, but all workers
in this area from low-wage indus
trial interests who have announced
their purpose of bringing SUBJ
standard wage and working con-
ditions to Arizona.
They should be permitted to

Negotiations over wage increas-
es for the city employees of Phoe-
nix were accelerated following a
statement presented to the City
Commission by the Phoenix City
Employees Local 317, of the
American Federation of State,
County, and Municipal Employees.
Arizona sun., 1946-12-06

In the statement Miss Emma
Dobney, Secretary of Local 317,
again reiterated the demands for
a 25% wage increase for all city
employees and pointed out the
previous cost of living wage in
creases had always Jagged months
behind the rise in the cost of liv-
ing. And further, that in view of
the American policy to increase
living standards, the basic salaries
paid city employees are too low
and should be raised. It was also
requested that the $3.50 wage in
crease be made retroactive to Sep
tember 1st.

forts to improve social, economic or political conditions.
 He attempted to reassure the French that American policy toward Germany would provide security for France from Germany. He sug- gested that Army engineer troops would be more valuable than infan- try in enforcing the proposed demil- ltarization treaty in Germany.
 Byrnes rejected the Wallace thes- Is that the United States had no more business meddling in Balkan affairs than the Soviet Union has In Latin America. He recalled that It was MT. Roosevelt at Yalta who got Stalln and Winston Churchill to accept a declaration for liberated Europe which, Byrnes said, imposed a responsibility upon the three gov- ernments to continue their interest in the Balkan states and uphold the basic freedoms embodied in the dec- laration.
 U. S. in to Finish
 The United States tried their best to stay out of two European wars, he said, on the theory that they should mind their own business and that business wasn't in Europe.
 They have concluded that if they must help finish every European war, it would be better for them to do their part to prevent starting a European war"
 Then he recalled that twice in a generation doubt regarding Amer ican foreign policy led other nations to miScalculate the consequences of their actions, and twice such doubts brought war.
 'That must not happen again"
 Byrnes described at length how the proposed disarmament and de- militarAation treaty for Germany would operate with provisions for a completed and continued system of inspection and control to insure that Germany does not rearm.
 Calls on Russian Support
 The speech was another plea to the Soviet Union, the only Big Four power to reject the treaty idea.
 '"The United States is firmly op- posed to revival of Germanys mill itary power. It is firmly opposed to struggle for control of Germany which again would give Germany power to divide and conquer" | 'It does not want to see Ger many become a pawn or partner in the struggle for power between the East and West"
 Byrnes' Stuttgart speech had been widely interpreted in France as ad- vocating revival of strong central ized government for Germany.
 For our own welfare, as well as for the welfare of the German peo- ple," he said today, i've do not want to see an over-centralized govern ment in Germany which can domin- ate the German people .. we want to see federal government in Ger many created by the states, and not states created by 8 central govern ment."

Byrnes Urges Russia To Back Reich Pact

Paris, Oct. 3-UP)-Secretar Of State James F. Byrnes invited So- viet Russia to join the United States, Britain and France in a treaty to dernilitarize Germany to last 40 years. Byrnes made his invitation today in a speech before the Amer ican Club in Paris.
 Byrnes originally proposed 8 25- year treaty on Germany to the For eign Ministers Council last May. On July g, Soviet Foreign Minister V. M. Molotov replied that Byrnes' sug- gestion was wholly inadequate in every respect" He said any treaty should be for at least 40 years.
 Byrnes immediately agreed to the 40-year suggestion. At Stuttgart he suggested "25 or even 40 years"
 Called On MOlOtOv
 Yesterday Byrnes called on Molo- tov for their first private talk since the 21-Nation Peace Conference be- gan more than 10 weeks ago.
 Byrnes said he hoped Stalin's statement would end "the unwar- ranted charges that the United States is seeking to use it's possess sion of the atomic bomb as threat of force against the Soviet Union, or that responsible leaders of the Soviet Union so believe"
 In the latter part of his speech Byrnes hit directly at Big Four diff ferences. He admitted candidly it would be folly to deny the serious ness of the conflict of viewpoints among the Allies after this war" Ignoring or minimizing those diff culties would only make the solution more difficult, he said.
 q don't believe any responsible official of any government wants war. The world has had enough Of war"
 Wallace Episode Passed
 Byrnes made only one passing in direct reference to the dismissal of Henry A. Wallace as Secretary Of Commerce because of his foreign policy beliefs. Byrnes pledged that American bipartisan foreign policy will continue whichever party was In power.
 sThe President recently made known to the world in the most con- vincing manner possible that the foreign policy which was started by MT. Roosevelt and which has been consistently followed by MT. Tru- man will continue to be the policy of the American government America is determined this time not to retreat into a policy of isolation. We are determined this time to CO., operate in maintaining peace"
 Outlining his foreign policy prin- ciples, Byrnes said, i've must seek less to defend our actions in the eyes of those who already agree with us and more to defend our actions in the eyes of those who don't agree with us."
 "Our defense must be the defense of justice and freedom, the defense of political and economic rights, not of the few privileged men or na- tions, but all men and all nations" '"
 Reaffirm U. s. Beliefs
 Byrnes said he wanted to reaffirm the conviction of the American peo- ple and Government in the right of every people to organize their own destiny through the freest pos sible expression of their collective will"
 He emphasized American belief in freedoms for all men and all na- tions, and the lack of any American desire to impose the United States will on others or obstruct their ef-

Income Tax Returns
Expected 10 Exceed
Last Years S5,755

Tax Collector Guy Pearson said
today that the large number of l945
District income tax returns filed by
the deadline last midnight was
without precedent"
About A bags of mailed returns
are now waiting for sorting by tax
clerks, in addition to the thousands
of returns filed in person at the Dis
trict Building last week.
Mr.. Pearson said he would not
know the number of returns for
perhaps two weeks" However, he
predicted the total would rise far
above last years mark of 85,755.
The tax collector attributed the
rise to recent publicity on tax
cases. About three out of four of
the hundreds Of persons besieging
him for advice during the last
week were persons who took jobs
here several years ago and have
never paid tax, Mr.. Pearson said.
He explained that the question
of legal residence involves property
holdings, investments, previous tax
payments and voting privileges.
Unless person now living here
is certain he can prove legal resi-
dence elsewhere, he had better check
his status with the tax collector S
office, Mr.. Pearson warned.
Persons who file new face a 25
per cent penalty, plus ! per cent
assessment for every month of
delayed payment.
