WORDS, WIT

BY WILLIAM MORRIS

The polite, lawyer-guided
testimony Of today's labor lead
ers bears but q remote re-
semblance to the lusty. salty
language used by the hard
listed founders Of Americas
labor movement. Before
they're all forgotten. let's look
at q few Of the expressions
used by workinemen when the
century and the labor move
ment were young.
Ever hear Of q "scissorbill?"
Well, Q scissorbill was Q labor
ing man who was Hailitantly
anti union. "Firiks" and
"scabs" were men who would

ers, but "scissorbills" went one
step further. They took the
strikers jobs and then cam
paigned actively against the
union. Sometimes they were
also called - facetiously, Of
course-'missionary workers"
"A Jimmy Higgins" was any
conscientious, hard working
member Of the rank and file
especially the sort Of chap who
could be counted upon to work
selflessly at the drudgery Of
union work. The Jimmy Hig-
genses" never made headlines
and seldom got thanked for
their labors. but they did the
jobs nobody else wanted.
The term yellow dog" once
designated any kind Of worth
less or mongrel thing. It sur
wives today chiefly In the
phrase yellow dog contract"
the unions term for a con-
tract which stipulated that an
employe would not join q labor
union.
Early in the century, "wobb-
lies" were active on the union
scene. though they and the
organization they represented
have vanished. "Wobblies"
were members Of the I.W.W.,

national Workers Of the World
to its sympathizers but signified

nents.
This is only q smattering of
the jargon which grew out Of
the early struggles Of Americas
laboring men to form their I'M

Dale would still have the suit
stopped with the jack. And.
since there were no quick en-
tries to dummy in the other
suits. dummy would furnish
exactly two club winners.
Desperately Mr.. Champion
won with the ace Of clubs and
cashed the queen on the long
chance that the jack would
drop. When 1t didn't he tried
the spade flnesse. That lost,
too, and down he went.

Governor Urges Strict Adherence
To Budget And Limitation Spending

Governor J. Hugo Aronson told
the 35th Montana Legislature
Tuesday that Montana, like its
citizens, must live within its in.
come" and urged Legislators to
keep appropriations within an.
ticipated revenues.
Governor Aronson, starting his
second term as Montana's Chief
Executive said in his third State
of the State" message that a bal.
anced budget is constitutionally
required, and appropriation re.
quests must be drastically cut,
unless the Legislature wants to
turn to a sales tax.
The State tax picture was COM
pared to the plight of a trapper
in a burning cabin with wolves
bowling outside. The Governor
said the trapper had the choice
of putting out the fire with what
he has in the cabin, or going out
into the bitter cold to face the
wolves.
This may we'll be the trapper's
only choice" Governor Aronson
only choice may be the sales tax.
But let's try to put out the fire
first with what Is available"
