The 81. croix Labor Union

The question OF what g
union is, is often misunder-
stood by members and almost
always by non-members. The
best definition is the simplest.
It is an organization formed
by workers for their mutual
benefit and protection on, and
in their jobs. Many employers
and others try to cover this de-
ffiifaiiittiion with with a fog Of pre-
iudice and transformation.
They are branded with all
kinds of names which, if left
out might serve a better pur-
pose in our form Of democra-
cy. All Of this nonsense to hide
from view a simple objective,
"The Dignity of the Worker"
and his family on the job and
at home. The freedom from
the fear of poverty, of an I'M
cared for old age. of poor
health for wife and children.
and Of unfair employment
practices and firings.
We admit that unions are
sometimes corrupt, and I'M
democratic. A union is as good
as the men and women, and
the principles and ideals Of the
members that belong to it,
Our union will stand on our
proven record of service both
IL the workers and the COM
munity Of St. Croix.
We believe in putting our
cards on the table and in speak
ing forcefully on public issues.
We as unionists believe that
by so doing we serve our
selves, and other workers like
ourselves, the general public.
Some people think that unions
are in a different classification
as an organization. The bust
nessman and woma hin this
community have their prob
lens and detectives, so they
join the Chamber of Com
merce, which is a big union of
business people they may not
like the use Of that word).
Workers must join together
to present q unified STRENGTH.

non-unionists are such because
they misunderstood what a
union is, because they lack the
spirit and courage to join.
They need those little and
big services and representa-
tons with the employer which
the unionist gets, often land
our st. Croix Labor Union has
seen this many times) they ex-
pect the union to get these
services for them. 1t takes
courage to join a union, and al
most every step Of Labor's his
tory proves it, but let US all re-
member that living instead Of
just existing takes courage
ana working With others.
Examine labor's problems
and it will be seen that those
problems can almost without
exception be solved by the
union within q reasonable
time, Of course). Without

lineup all the more remarkable
was the fact that Billy Goodman,
able to fill in around the infield
when needed, carried batting
mark of 1893. And Vollmer, filling
in for the injured Di Maggie, was
hitting a very respectable .32O.
That 1927 Yankee club, which
won the pennant by 19 games,
saw Gehrig finish the campaign
with a runs-batted-in total of ITS.
Ruth's final RBI total was 164,
that of Meusel was 103 and that
of Lazzeri was 102. Here are the
final season batting averages of
that lineup: Combs 1856; Koenig
.285; Ruth 1856; Gehrig 1878;
1863 and Grabowski .277.
For the record, here is how
the 1927 Yaunk principal pitching
strength shaped up in games won
and lost through June II of 1927:
Waite Hoyt, 80; Herb Pennock,
6-2; Walt Ruether 81; Urban
Shocker, GA; Myles Thomas, Al;
and Wiley Moore, the relief spec
ialist, 5-4. Through June II, the
Red Sox pitching record was: Joe
Dobson IA; Ellis Kinder 3-6;
Maurry McDermott Al; Chuck
Stobbs Al; Mel Parnell SIS; Walt
Masterson IL; Al Papai 3-2 and
Charley Schanz 3-2.

in American League history was
the New York Yankees outfit of
1927. With its "Murderer's Row"
of Earl Combs, Mark Koenig,
Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Bob
Meusel and Tony Lazzeri, that
1927 Yankee wrecking crew not
only won 40 games and lost but
A for an all-time Junior circuit
seasonal mark, but also finished
the season with a club batting
mark of .3O7, highest team sea-
son percentage for pennant win
ner.
But the current Boston Red Sox
through June II games, over
shadows in sheer power at the
plate that famed Yankee club,
not only on comparison of in
dividual averages of regular play
ers over the same span of the
two seasons but also on a basis
of team hitting by. those regulars
and also on the basis of runs
batted-in performance by the
leading sluggers.
busting off the 1927 official
averages, through 81 games the
Yankees had played through June
II, here is the way Ruth-Gehrig
and Company was hitting: Earle
Combs .312; Mark Koenig .293;
Ruth .341; Lou Gehrig .399; Bob
Meusel 1882; Tony Lazzeri .3O4;
Joe Dugan ,226 and Johnny Grab
owski, the catcher, .29O. That
lineup, with the players listed
comprising the regular lineup
most of the season, had won 35
and lost 16 and had the Yanks
four games in front of the Chicago
White Sox after June II games.
Through the same date this
season, here is how the Boston
Red Sox were hammering the ball,
listing Dom Di Maggie in center
field even though he had been
replaced for a few games by
Clyde Vollmer: DiMaggio .341;
Johnny Pesky .349; Ted Williams
1888; Vern Stephens .3O4; Walt
Dropo 1873; Bobby Doer .291; AL
Zarilla .361 and Birdie Tebbetts
.314.
That lineup had a collective
average of an amazing 1888, no
less than 10 points higher than
the regulars team mark of the
1927 Yanks through the same date.
Breaking down the homers and
runs-batted-in figures for the
power men of the two 1ine-ups,
we find that Ruth, through June
II, had 20 homers and had driven
in Al runs. Gehrig had hit IA
round-trippers and had batted in
SO runs. Meusel had hit three cir
cult SmaShes, driven in Al runs,
while Lazzeri had seven homers
to his credit and 81 runs driven
home. It was in 1927, of course,
that Ruth went on to his record
of 60 homerS.
Through June II this season,
Boston's Ted Williams had made
18 homerS, had batted in 81 runs,
a figure well ahead of Ruth's |
total. Dropo, sensational slugging |
first sacker, had IA homers and
had batted in 81 runs. Stephens |
had made 13 home runs and was
tied with Williams for the major |
league runs-batted-in lead, at 81. |
Doerr, the number four man for |
the Red Sox in driving in home |
runs, had made seven round-trip-
pers and had batted home 43
runs, a total ahead of the marks |
of Meusel and Lazzeri at that
point. The RBI totals of Williams,
Dropo and Stephens, incidentally,
were well out in front for both
major leagues. !

In announcing his intention of
seeking a second elective term as
Chief Executive of the State of
Arizona, Governor Garvey said.
"Arizona has not suffered the
upsetting conflicts and distress
that has plagued other states in
the postwar era. We have been
able to resolve many problems of
growth and population increase
with mature judgment and in a
manner that is credit to the
Democratic party and to the Off
GERS from it's ranks whom the
people of Arizona have chosen to
conduct their public affairs.
Examining this progress with
particular regard to my campaign
program of two years ago, I have
decided to seek election again"
Governor Garvey recalled that
two years ago his campaign pro-
gram had included II major is
sues, and that of these all but two
had been largely accomplished.
The governor listed the follow
ing as pledges honestly made and
sincerely fulfilled" during his ad
ministration.
1. A major campaign by State
officers and private citizens, to
bring about fullest development of
the Colorado river and all similar
resources for furnishing, the maxi
mum supply of irrigation water
and hydro-electric power for both
agricultural and industrial devel-
Opment.
"The Central Arizona Project
which represents practical plan
to begin to put these resources to
work, has received the full CO.
operation of my office in a nom
partisan, non-factional way. I have
put it's need above all politics. Our
state is united on this vital matter.
2. Legislation to provide more
adequate assistance to the aged, the
blind, the incapacitated and to de-
pendent children.
During my administration the
maximum grant for old age as
siStance was increased from $50
to $50, aid to dependent children
from $45 to $40 and other social
security grants were increased pro-
portionately.
II have openly and unapologet-
ically done my best to get for these
worthy people the maximum bene-
fit that has been authorized by
law. Twice the Legislature has re-
fused to appropriate sufficient
funds whereby maximum grants
might be paid. I promise to con-
tinue to work for increases suf-
ficient to take care of the increased
costs of living"
3. Assistance in the development
of the States mineral resources
and petroleum exploration. In par
ticular we should enact better laws
to govern petroleum exploration
and development, and thereby at
tract the best and most responsible
developers, and give better security
to small Independents.
