In China, where coal was used
for fuel long before Europeans
began to burn it, there are enor-

never practiced modern coal

for the industrial position of
those countries, which together
did more manufacturing than
all the rest of the world.
The United States produces
the largest proportion Of all
the coal mined. That is why
she is SO rich and powerful. She
is the greatest coal country, and
as she is also the greatest oil
country and the greatest cot
ton country, the greatest iron
country and the greatest lead
country, she is indeed e favored
nation. "A century ago she
had a very small population, but
when modern inventions showed
how to use her natural re-
sources, she made rapid pro-
gress.
Canada has a great deal of
coal, but she buys a large part
of what she uses from the Unit
ed States. This is because Que
bee, Ontario and part of Mani
toba are closer to the coal-fields
of the United States than to the
principal Canadian coal-fields,
which are in the Maritime Prov
inces and in the West. Thus
it is cheaper to buy in the Unit
ed States than to pay freight
on Canadian coal.
Nearly all the European coun-
tries have more or less coal.
Russia has a great deal, though
no one knows exactly how
much, as the fields have not
been thoroughly explored.

sibly can under the circumstances"
is already a bottleneck in collec-
tive bargaining procedure by the
"mere weight of hundreds of ad-
ditional cases being thrust on it
monthly" He said figures show
that although at the beginning of
the NLRB fiscal year cases were
up so per cent over the close of
last fiscal year, the board is now
struggling along with a loss of 20
per cent of its personnel, necessi-
tated by the Congressional cut in
the current NLRB fiscal budget.
"This can't help but have its eff
feet on collective bargaining pro-
cedures," Washburn insisted, "and
it is now plainly showing up in
increased delays of the board in
handling cases. At the beginning
of this fiscal year, the NLRB had
12,26O cases filed and of these
1905 cases were pending = both
figures an all time high. Every
month the rising NLRB case load
is terrific. Such a condition i'm
perils the nations economy" he
said.

Our American Heritage-l

try in recent years, people were
fired with wrong ideologies and
then tried to conquer the world. It
cost US bitter price to stop them.
At this critical time many of US
have forgotten that democracy has
an ideology too. The Founding
Fathers put on the Great Seal of
the United States that we were
the "New Order of the Ages" You
can see it in Latin on your dollar
bills. On our coins we have writ
ten "In God We Trust" and "E
Pluribus Unum," zone out of
many"
Washington and Jefferson and
others saw in 1776 that democracy
is more than documents and prin-
ciples. They saw that democracy
is how people live and what they
believe. They fought to create
American democracy in the hearts
of Americans at the same time
they fought on the battlefield to
keep out dictatorship by European
governments.
Today as dictatorship is purged
from country after country, de-
mocracy's only hope is that her adj
vocates put her basic ideas on the
march again, in labor and in every
other area of national life.
Our country was born of revolu-
tion at time when all the world
WAS ruled by dictators. Her great
leaders, Washington, Jefferson,
Franklin, Adams and later Lin
coin, were all revolutionaries. AS
they succeeded new hope was
born in the heart of the ordinary
man everywhere.
Few realize that when the. Revo-
lutionary War was over, tremen-
dous pressure was brought on
George Washington to become
king. He resolutely repelled the
idea and patiently steered Amer
lea through the Constitutional
Convention, of which he was chair
man, and through the eight years
of his presidency. All the time, as
he said in letter to Jefferson, 81
was using my utmost exertions to
establish national character of
our own"
: Jefferson in turn was urged to
rule Virginia as dictator, but
with equal resolution refused. He
wanted government of a free
people inspired by God. In order
to do this his first step was to get
everybody's mind and heart on the
highest level. AS early as the
spring of 1774 he wrote a resolu-
ton, passed unanimously by the
Virginia Legislature, to "set aside
a day of fasting, humiliation and
prayer, devoted to implore the Di-
vine interposition that the
minds of his Majesty and his Par
lament may be inspired from

Relations (Wagner) Act to clear
the way for labor and manage
ment to bargain collectively on
the many questions confronting
them, such crippling of NLRB ma
chinery through failure to appro-
pirate sufficient funds for its
proper administration is contribut-
ing heavily to the general unrest,
in Washburn's opinion.
Washburn added that failure
to set up a sufficient budget for
the boards to operate properly is
plainly playing favoritism to in
dustry for the Wagner Act is not
effective on the employer unless
there is an effective application of
the act and any delay by the board
in hearing cases in practice really
deprives employees of their col
lective bargaining rights for the
length of time of the delay.
Sees Employers Helped
Delays are advantageous to
employers because the delay re-
tains the status quo for that much
longer and the unscrupulous are
not hesitating to take full advan-
tage of an unfortunate situation
from labor's viewpoint" Wash
burn continued. He gave this as
the reason why industry is not
coming to the forefront in object
ing to the mounting delays in
board action.
Seemingly, industry doesn't
care how big the backlog of
NLRB cases grows" said Wash
burn. "Can it be that these in
terests, not as yet having been
very successful in overthrowing all
collective bargaining legislation,
are now looking to make long de-
lays do just as good a job for
them? Can it be they are pursu-
ing the old trick of doing indirectly
what they cannot do directly by
crippling the NLRB budget to the
point where the NLRB is hope
lessly swamped with cases and is
eventually discredited in all eyes ?"
he asked.
Delays Increasing

NLRB, doing the best that it pos

DAIRY WORKERS
SECURE INCREASE

Johnson City, Tenn.-Eight hum
dred employees of Pet Dairy Prod
ucts Company, in 25 plants in six
states, have been organized and
brought under a standard agree
ment negotiated by the Interna-
tional Brotherhood of Teamsters.
The contract is system-wide and
the closed shop and check-off are
established with system-wide SEN
iority.
Up to three months payment of
full wages during illness, six legal
holidays and double pay if worked
are some of the benefits estab-
lished. Dressing and cleanup time
for inside workers prior to and
finishing work is paid time.
All the vitamins needed seem to
be found in plebeian dishes.

above with wisdom, moderation,
and justice :"
From the very earliest days of
the Revolution, its theology was
grounded in the thought that the
nation as whole must find Gods
guidance. Jefferson put it in his
"Notes on Virginia.: "Can the lib
critics of nation be thought Sc
cure when we have removed their
only firm basis, conviction in the
minds of the people that these lib
critics are the gift of God ?" Thirty
years later, in his second inaugural
address as president, 81 shall need
too the favor of that Being, in
whose hands we are, and . ask
you to join with me in supplica-
tions, that He will enlighten the
minds of your servants, guide
their councils ;"
Similar days of fasting and
prayer were held in other colonies
and voted by the Continental Con-
gress at intervals all through the
war, to cause every last citizen to
reflect that freedom rested on
Gods direction. One of Washing
toms first acts as Commander-in-.
Chief was an order for the army
to hold such a day of prayer and
humiliation. That was their big
idea, their inspired ideology for the
new democracy. The next article
will picture Washington's fight to
make men of destiny of the revo-
lutionary American people, and
the way the forces of materialism
opposed him.

SignoImen Make
Gains On B. & M.

An arbitration award handed
down this week gave the Brother
hood of Railroad Signalmen a sig
nificant victory in it's battle for
improved conditions on the Boston
& Maine.
The award, affecting 230 signal
department workers, provided a
guaranteed six-day work week,
double time pay for work after 16
continuous hours, and a require
ment that employees shall be en-
titled to time off for meals if they
work more than two hours after
their bulletined schedule.
Also, they are to be assured a
meal period after each four hours
of work, and eating time up to 80
minutes is to be paid for by the
carrier as time worked. In addi-
ton, under separate understand
ing with the carrier, meals are to
be furnished at company expense.
Reasons for Guarantee
The award was issued by a board
composed of Frank M. Swacker as
neutral; Vice President ID. C. Cone
of the Signalmen, as labor mem
Der, and William H. Hartzell, en-
ployer member. Hartzell dissented.
The unions case was presented by
w. M. Homer, economist, assisted
by Vice President ID. w. Helt of
the Brotherhood and Herbert G..
Leete, general chairman on the
b. & M.
Cone pointed out that up to now
the B. & M. has been one of the
nations few major carriers with
out a guaranteed week for signal
men.
after all, railroads have been
successful heretofore in convinc-
ing various boards and the public
that lower wages on the railroads
than in outside industries are JUS
titled because these workers have
regular, six-day employment"
Cone declared.
"We're taking them at their
word on this regularity business
and insisting that they guarantee
it, in black and white"

Wage Study


One study of the guaranteed an
nual wage has been completed by
the advisory board of the Office
Of War Mobilization and Recon-
version. With its report to the
President a letter stated that the
findings represented "a major con-
tribution to the sum Of knowledge
in this field and deserves serious
consideration by government, labor,
management and the public"
Mr.. Truman, in his letter to DR..
Nourse, wrote:
although the board pointed out
that guaranteed wage plans should
not be the subject Of Legislative
action, it did make clear the re-
sponsibility of the government for
maintaining a continuing study of
the guaranteed wage and for sup
plying data and information to
those interested in wage guaran-
tees.
Accordingly, | request that the
Council Jof Economic Advisers
study the economic implications of
the guaranteed wage, particularly
as devise for helping to stabilize
employment, production, and pur-
chasing power"
The letter went on to say that
since there We're particular fune-
tions which other federal agencies
could best undertake he was put
ting certain responsibilities on the
Secretaries Of Commerce and
Labor
