A vote was called on the question of whether or not the organization will withdraw from the $35,000,000 bridge celebration, and to the mayor's ultimatum Z. R. Brown, the federation's secretary declared: "labor is going to have some thing to say about that I" No doubt labor will, and another flock of flies will be im bedded in Hiz Honor's ointment. CERTAINLY the chief executive of San Francisco has his work cut out for him during these parlous times. No won der he is under the care of a doctor a good share of the time To get by in the Golden Gate city hall, these days, requires a hide like a rhinoceros, a jaw like Mussolini's, and a sub machine gun for a- watch charm. Whatever Hiz Honor is paid, it isn't half enough for the punishment he must take. It's an ill wind that blows no one good however. Successful or unsuccessful, one net result of the Fiesta is certain. MAYOR ROSSI of San Francisco need never again fear a broadside from Joe Carson of Portland, regarding th iniquities and injustices of that bug border control. The mayor of Portland will return a chastened-and forgiving man. After observing what his suffer, he will uomc back to the the Rose City, and never again arrogance of California officialdom.

So the demonstrators were dent, in selecting the German emblem, rather than the Italian. AS for the red flag of Russia, those who feel strongly against Stalin and his dictatorship of the proletariat, are not disposed toward flag waving or flag tearing. They feel strongly but they arc Inrgely of the property owning class, rural and metropolitan. The "bourgeoisie" it you please, and therefore constrained not emotional, essentially statie. Those who really hate Bolshevism, as labor hates Fascism because they FEAR it--bccauso its victory would spell their destruction are largely comfortably placed in the upper brackets, and don't engage in street demonstrations, or other phases of "direct action." Finally while organized labor has always been essentially conservative and has repeatedly gone on record against Com muniMii (and the rank and file of labor is against it today) were this country ever unfortunate enough to be faced by th grim necessity of choosing BETWEEN Fascism and Commun ism, there is no doubt where labor would go. It would gc against Fascism with every resource at its command, ami would cliictantly perhaps but no less certainly, embrace Communism, as the lesser of two evils. under such circumstances regarding it as the only hope of survival of their class.

Little by little the old. taboos against depraving the morals of youth have giv en way before powerful ' propa ganda in behalf of drugs until the truth about the effects of tobacco and alcohol has become almost submerged by the plausible pseudo -scientific teachings of the propagandist. Under this tu telage and example children in their teen commonly acquire the tobacco or alcohol habit or both, resorting to the drug first because they have been taught that It la smart to do so, then because they discover It relieves con sciousness of Inferiority, and pres ently adopting it to Inhibit the in stinctive urge to do something to fight or to run away.

There Is one game for which Neysa McMien, who sponsors most of the new ones, has no seat. It was thought up by her . husband, John Baragwanath who usually has as an - ally for Its perpetration Ar thur Samuels. It Is called "Fun With Pood." And may only be played at the d t n n e r table where such gooey viands as roast beef with brown gravy and Ice cream with hot chocolate sauce are served. Sometimes a meringue-capped pudding may be employed. At any rate the chief figure In the game must be a rather pompous person. Baragwanath and Samuels pilot the conversation Into higher levels speaking learnedly on high blown tops. One, say Baragwanath, will In the heat of conversation allow the back of his hand to dip In the gravy and then unconsciously, talking all the while, rub his hand across his nose. His face is soon a smear. In the meanwhile Samuels has not been Idle. He appears to be absorbed In the talk and la contemplatively. softly rubbing his hand over his cheeks, a hand dripping with ice cream and chocolate sauce.

Many say that the re-election of Roosevelt, whom he fought so bit terly, soured Mencken on the whole business of public utterance.

THE President, a "high administra tive official" asserts, will stand pat on his original supreme court packing bill. There is no indication, this official i says, that Roosevelt will permit his court packing bill to be withdrawn or changed, despite the fact that the government has won 12 Important coses and lost none before the high tribunal this year. W HY Is the President so firm In his announced determination to go through with his court packing scheme? Well, for one thing, he can't afford to have It . suspected that he WILL compromise until he Is READY to compromise. . That would weaken his hand badly. - - For another, he CAN'T AFFORD to compromise, for a compromise would be politically equivalent to a defeat and a defeat would destroy the Im pression In congress that he Is po litically invincible. If congress eve: gets that Idea, there will be trouble ahead for the New Deal. So the President has to go ahead with his court scheme. BL LUNT, outspoken Governor Mar tin, speaking in Ro&ebutg and naming Harry Bridges, warns Oregon to beware of labor "racketeers" who may bring another economic setback similar to that started by the "Wall Street crooka In 1929. (The quoted words are Governor Martin's own). He adds: "When our good laboring men al low men like Bridges to lead them. It Is time for good people to get to gether and knock Bridges and these racketeers out." BRIDGES made a speech up in Seattle the other night In which he aligned himself DEFINITELY as a communist. So we know where he TsTV TTWTI OlO Hiram stands. And we know that there ARE racketeers in tbe labor movement. (There are unscupuloua and dishon est men in business, also)., But we mustn't Jump to the con clusion that ALL labor Iwders are racketeers. That isn't true.
