ÍJ.R" FEBRUARY 12,1937 LABOR LEGISLATION Farmers throughout the state have been instrumental in having introduced in this legislative ges tion several bills designed to pra- pre- Con mils oesignea vent strikes that interfere • with the shipment of farm products es pecially those of a seasonable* or perishable nature. To the farmer« such legislation seems fair and equitable. For the other aide of the Con troversy there is another point of view. All labor organizations op pose the bills heartily because it is claimed that the purpose behind them is to restrict the labor unions in a manner that would eventually destroy them. The principal one of the bills would make it mandatory that all industrial organizations hé incor porated under the laws of the state and that unless it provides the corporation commissioner with full information regarding its offi cers, its place of business and the sums of money collected and ex pended each year, it shall lose its permission to operate in this state.. It is probably a certainty that no farmer will be able to see the danger of this bill to any labor or ganization that intended to be fair with its members irnd the company or companies for which it worked. .wc^hJ.Jje it would, make racketeering more difficult. * No student of industrial history in this country can fail to be im pressed with the similarity be tween the fight of labor against regulation and the fight against regulation that was made, and is still being made, by the so called capitalistic groups. It required years of work before the govern ment obtained power to regulate the railroads, for instance. But -now their incomes and their out goes are as well known to the public utilities*commissions and the railroad administrator as to the officers themselves. We tell util ities how much to charge and whether or not they can build a line. Yet. so far. we cannot even leg ally inquire of a abor union, how many members it has, who they are nor how much money was collected or spent. The more far seeing oi he labor leaders are beginning to «*»e that such s condition is not the best for labor but the rank In Other Days j From the Obareevr Feb. 14, 1908. £ E rl Mabell A.

SUPREME COURT It certainly was not expected by the writers of the constitution that at some future time members of congress would become entire ly subservient to the will of the executive power. Our colonial fathers were not made of the kind of stuff that became subservient otherwise there would have been no United Stater of America. * Secondly, while the condition whereby one branch of the govern ment gives up to another is bad enough, if the consolidation re- suits in the weakening of the ju dicial, or third, branch of the gov ernment so that the will of one man is able to decide questions of state, there will be no democracy. The average man cannot imagine the conceit of a man. even the president of the United States, who insists that the whole struc- «»«MWrtttdy be* otfeen and his opinions written into law. It smacks of the Red Queen in that strange and impossible book, Alice in Wonderland, whose displeasure brought forth the order “Off with their heads.” The proposal to enlarge the court is not based on the senility of the members nor upon a lack of ability. It is being done because the pres ent court cannot agree with the sweeping changes ordered by the president are constitutional. It is a similar move to that made by Mussolini when he sent his leigis- 'lative assembly home. There is no doubt that the court is sometimes out of step with the demands of the day. It sometimes changes its own - rulings. It is sometimes proven wrong. That is true of all men and all branches of government. If this president can pack the court to make it re spond to its wishes, another presi dent can do likewise until there is nothing but dictatorship and the liberties guaranteed under the con stitution will have gone. a daughter.
