Coming Events
Thanksgiving Vacation, Nov. 23-27.
Basketball, lone here, Nov. 28.
Next Thursday (today) has been
set aside as a general day of thanks
giving and everyone in this country
will give thanks that they are so
fortunate as to live in the United
States instead of war-torn Europe.
George Washington, in 1787, pro
claimed Thursday, November 27, to
be observed as Thanksgiving Day,
but until the Civil war it was a
state affair.
The last Thursday in November
was set aside by President Lincoln
in 1864. This year, however. Presi

At this writing here is what the

It is increasing unemployment by in

it is decreasing employment in the

Placer mine operators in Oregon,
Washington, Idaho, Montana and
South Dakota are permitted to work
their employes 12 hours a day or 56
hours a week for not more than 14
weeks a year, according to a ruling
of wage-hour administration. More
than one-half of the placer gold in
the area is excavated by floating
dredges and of the total gold pro
duced three-fourths comes from
Alaska.
With Christmas just around the
corner, the wage -hour administra
tion will hold a public hearing next
week to determine whether those
engaged in handling "decorative
greens" are in a seasonal occupa
tion. The farmers and growers who
send mistletoe, laurel, Oregon holly,
cattails, and cedar boughs to the
market know that these Christmas
greens are decidedly seasonal, and
they could not sell a truckload for a
dollar in July, but the wage-hour
administration has to be convinced
that it isn't an all-year industry and
that those engaged in it are not in
the same class with workers in a
steel mill.
One of the burdens of American
taxpayers is caring for foreign

Coincident with loss due to the war
are the losses inflicted upon business
and industry by the arbitrary and
dictatorial powers exercised bv Har
ry Bridges, chief of CIO unions on
the Pacific coast. According to re
port received in Washington, labor
controversies have completely tied
up the port of San Franoi son nnH
their effects are now being felt in
rortiand. in final meeting between
employers and union officials in
San Francisco, prior to the strike,
Bridges is alleged to have said he "is
the clerks' union," to have brushed
aside the clerks' committee, set the
minimum demands himself, and
called the strike. One of the demands
by Bridges would limit hours of
monthly clerks to 42 a week, deny
ing permission for overtime work at
one a half times straight-time, as is
provided in the wage-hour law and
as has been the practice in the in
dustry; another demand would
equalize the earnings of all clerks,
monthly, day, casual good. bad. and
indifferent.
The arbitrary and unreasonable
attitude of labor leaders is ranidlv
alienating the support of lone-time
influential friends, as is shown by
recent caustic comments by Senators
xvi orris and Borah and the auite nn-
parent disgust of President Roose
velt over their failure to take any
steps toward eliminating iurisdir
tional disputes. It is confidently ex.
pected in the national capital that
persistence in this attiude will have
repercussions not to their liking in
the forthcoming session of congress.
