Three reasons given for the proposed replacement of the Washington school building have been listed as follows : 1. Parts of the building are condemned for further use. 2. The remaining space is insufficient for a com­ plete educational program. 3. The safety of the entire building is questioned by the architect. Of these the safety factor is obviously the most im­ portant and adds to our responsibility as voters, for upon our decision rests the welfare and safety of Ash­ land children. Therefore it is imperative that we study the facts and above all should visit^ the building per­ sonally in order that ours may be an intelligent vote. Many have already visited the school and it will be open for inspection next week. So before the election Thursday visit the structure and see for yourself the conditions which have brought about the coming election. * * ★ Syndicalists At Work! Webster defines syndicalism in these words: “The theory, plan, or practice of trade-union action which aims by the general strike and direct action to estab­ lish control by organizations of workers over the means and processes of production.” It was this kind of syndicalism which brought dis­ ruption to post-war Germany, and which was largely responsible for the rise to power of the Nazi dictator­ ship. It was this kind of syndicalism which did much to paralyze and corrupt France in her hour of gravest danger, and was largely responsible for her final col­ lapse and ignominious military defeat. It is this kind of syndicalism which some ruthless and ambitious labor leaders plan for the United States. We have seen strikes called in factories which are absolutely vital to our defense. We have seen labor leaders defy the government. We have seen the most extreme and impossible demands made upon industry, coupled with gangster-like threats of what will happen if they are refused. The end these leaders have in mind is clear—syndicalism, a labor monopoly which will be more powerful than the government itself. Let that happen and this country will be done as a democracy. And the workers of America will find themselves slaves, dominated and controlled by labor dictators. That is the issue we are facing now.—In­ dustrial News Review. ★ ★ ★ Do you know that a single cigarette dropped on a forest roadside can in a matter of hours call up hun­ dreds of men, fleets of tractors and trucks and even airplanes, an army equipped and backed with mobile pumps, motor and animal supply trains, field kitchens, portable two-way radio outfits, aerial photography, parachutists—all at a cost to as much as $25,000 per day?
