policy" it starts off by demanding either re-
peal or drastic modification of the Wagner
act.
That raises the question: Why are such
organizations so bitterly opposed to the law
fathered by the senior senator from New
York and what has the act really accom-
plished? Probably few unionists know the
complete answer.
The other day. in a talk to an AFL rally
at Asheville, N. c.. Gerard D. Reilly, men,
Der Of the National Labor Relations board,
presented a significant balance sheet of
achievements under the act.
Incidentally, Mr.. Reilly has frequently
been criticized by organized labor for his un-
friendly attitude, and so no one can suggest
he would exaggerate in favor of labor. He
didn't. He merely recited 'the record"
\ !. +
Since the Wagner act went on the stat
ute books. he said, 1903, 900 employees who
had been fired for union activities were re-
instated. That's quite an army. In the old
days when the boss fired a man because he
belonged to a union, the worker had no ap-
peal. No court would listen to him.
Employers were compelled to disgorge
S11 900, 900 in back pay. That means the
bosses were caught cheating the workers in
various ways.
Among the other achievements of the
Wagner act, listed by Mr.. Reilly were: 200
company unions" outlawed; 500 employ
ers ordered to bargain collectively in good
faith $4,000 collective bargaining elections
conducted by the board; 5000, 600 workers
cast ballots-a total of "a per cent of the en-
ployees eligible to vote.
That. Mr.. Reilly said, was an amazing
percentage of employees who exercised
their right of francise.'
!. !. +
Statistics alone fail to tell the whole story,
he added. Even more important, he stressed,
is that the cold, hard figures have been trans
lated into signed collective bargaining agree
ments in thousands of plants "where the en-
ployer hitherto was the a~ll-powerful and un-
questioned economic sovereign"
These agreements, Reilly declared, have
led to democratic give and take in place of
industrial absolutism." Also, because workers
now have a real voice in making the rules
under which they toll, freedom of speech,
press and assembly are enjoyed in greater
degree and in more communities in America
than ever before
It's because the Wagner act has succeed
ed so brilliantly in safeguarding the basic
rights of workers that many employers now
want to cripple it, Mr.. Reilly declared. These
employers, he contended, want to go on in
their own uncontrolled way
Fifty years of violence has fastened the
habit Of industrial absolutism on American
industry" according to Mr.. Reilly, and too
many bosses dom want to give up that habit.
Far from suggesting that the Wagner act
needs %revamping, he declared the real trou-
BILE lies in the fact that, although it is the law
of the land, ut has yet to become the law in
thousands of our Industrial plants"
Many employers still hope to smash un-
ions, he Observation-Disclosures

WEIGH, W. Va, Jan. 16 -U.D-
C. R. Spindler, state department

Spindler issued his statement
after state, federal and local mine
inspectors had completed prelim
mary inquiry, into the cause of the
disaster which, SO far has taken
Is lives. y. g..
The intensity of the blast dinin-
ished sharply as it approached
areas where the other 252 men in
the mine at the time were\working,
the state mine chief explained.
Lawrence Carper, 33, and Clar-
ence Hale, "a, both of Havaco, died
