To them a hearty welcome, with the hope that they will enjoy their stay here, and their convention will be a success, from every standpoint. The weather man haf, agreed to provide blue sky and sun shine everyday ; a fresh new moon every night; and guarantees no steam heat will be turned on until the gathering is over. If the veterans feel in need of anything they haven't got, let them make their wants known to any local citizen in good standing, and same will be provided, if it's within the range of human possibility. ' ' So once more welcome, and stick around as long as you can, after, the official, doings, are over, for we are proud of this little city and surrounding country and want you to see as much of both as possible. And we want to see as much of you as possible, too, so each' and every one of you may realize that Medford and southern Oregon are delighted to see you and deeply appreciate the great service you rendered to your country, (how tcmpus fugits!) nearly 40 years ago! The Jurisdictional Dispute LABOR troubles between employers and union workers are bad enough. 'But labor troubles of a jurisdictional nature between rival unions are worse. . For there is some chance of reaching an agreement in the first instance; little or none in the second. When rival unions start fighting, there is no issue involved but one of control. They have no differences, except as to which union, in a certain jurisdiction, is to be boss. The only "out" therefore; in a majority of cases, is a test of strength, a fight to the finish. And that means war, per haps an invigorating pastime to the participants but poison to business and the innocent public. A FEW days ago it was the beer war in Portland, two unions fighting as .to which should deliver a certain beer and which shouldn't. As a result no one delivered the beer, and a perfectly legitimate business, which had not offended in any way; lost thousands of dollars a day, as a result. KTOW there is a similar situation in Seattle as far as a certain " newspaper is concerned. The Seattle Star this time is the "innocent bystander." The Newspaper Guild, under the C.I.O., is fighting the Teamsters Union, for jurisdiction of the latter union proclaims the Guild will have the blanket1 blankiest fight on its bauds in the history of its organization, if it tries to take any of his men under its jurisdiction. "The rule books will be thrown into the bay" cries he, "and we will fight the Guild with everything the teaming movement has!" VERT nice ! But how about the Star, the readers of the Star, the business of the Start It had to close its doors as a result. Because the teamsters union doesn't like the Guild and vica versa, a legitimate business which has done nothing wrong, has to suffer. It is losing thousands of dollars a day and may, through no fault of its own, be crippled seriously. IS that rightt Silly question ! OF COURSE, it isn't right. It's flagrantly and outrageously wrong. There is nothing in reason, common sense or justice to uphold It. It is directly contrary to the first principle of this, or any other, civilized government. . THIE Guild and the Teamsters Xnion, the C.I.O. and A.F.U. " or any "other labor organizations, have no more MORAL right to settle their differences in the street by force, than have John Jones and Bill Smith or other private citi.cus. That's why wo HAVE government. That's why we have laws and police to enforce them. How long would this government, or any other, last, if the right these labor organizations insist upon, were granted to those who have no such organizations to support themt Not a week I Every couple having a dispute, would be out in the street, shooting it out to a decision. Business houses might have to close down, traffic halted, innocent bystanders killed; but that wouldn't make any difference. The right to settle jurisdictional differences, involves the right to strike, and the right to strike is inviolate. If the right to strike is to be effective it has to be supported by force. So all rules are off boys, pull out your blackjacks, uulimber your six-guns and go to it ! THIIAT'S somewhat exaggerated of course, but it fairly illus- trates the principle involved in these jurisdictional disputes between rival unions. No issues of public; moment are involved! No basic prin ciples, regarding the relationship between capital and labor. It's entirely a private affair, between two private organizations, ami yet under conditions which exist there is no way to settle it, but by fighting it out. And fighting it out, means disruption of normal business, oonfusion anil chaos, material losses and in many cases loss of life. IN any other relationship in our modem civilisation, such a situation would not be tolerated for a moment. Where there is no moral right thero would be no legal right. But not so when organized labor is concerned. In this direction and this direction alone, we not only ACCKPT an archy, but in certain quarters INSIST ou it. Obviously such a situation should not be allowed to con tinue. The same principle that applies to individuals, should apply to organizations of individuals, whether they represent capital or labor or what not. They should be KKSI'ONSIRt.E. And their selfish interests whatever they might be, should at all times be subordinated to the public interest. A COUPLE of rival labor organizations should no more be allowed to disturb the peace, disrupt business, and injure innocent and unoffending citizens, simply because they can't settle their differences amicably, In short as has been frequently stressed in this column, we should have the legitimate rights over the drivers. Dave Beck than a couple of individuals. (if capital and labor clrarly defined, and special labor courts established, to see that those rights are sustained, and when differences occur, that the dif ferences are settled without violence or public disorder, on the basis of justice and fair play, That is the only sane way up this eternal labor turmoil, friction, and strife. One sometimes wonders how long it will take how much will have to be spent in blood and treasure to make the people of the country as a whole (and particularly their leaders) SEE it!

BATHE AND SWIM At the ola swlmmln' hole where we used to dive Into bliss on hotter summer dsya than boys can possi bly conceive In eswiisj ijwjl these alr-condl the brewery peo ple could not keep constant watch, Ben Free, Bene g a m b 1 a n, wss the envy of the gsng. Ben could dive In and stsy in till our - lips were blue, and be dry enough to dress s moment after coming out. Ben's skin seemed to have enough skin oil in It to Insure Instant shedding of water. The rest of us had to take time out to dry off naturally. This wsa eometlmea a serious handicap, especially when the brewery people attempted to surprise us. After all, the basin wss only a few hundred yards from civilization. No matter how long you may float astride the waves, saya the poet who gets up bulletins for the cleanliness Institute, a awlm la not a batb in fact It la likely to leave on the body sediment that needs to be removed. Most resorts have first rate equipment for washing. . At other places It may be necessary to bathe at home. In any case, remem ber that sediment and give the home plumbera a break. All well conducted swimming pools require patrons to take a shower bsth before entering the pool. This Is a reasonable sanitary precaution. Don't care how "clean-limbed" or how snooty you may be. It la only fair to other patrons that you be required to come clean, or aa clean as possible, in order to keep the water In the pool aa nearly free from pollution as may be possible. Persons hsvlng sinus trouble, any kind of sore throat or alleged "cold" must be prohibited from entering sny swimming pool. Patrons har boring recent or chronic respiratory Infection and selfishly concealing the fact In order to enjoy the priv ilege of the pool are the greatest menace to deceit patrona who may readily contract serious or fatal mas toid, ear or naaopharyngeal lnfec tlona from water so polluted. In sny swimming place, artificial or natural. It Is a good rule NOT to take any water Into the mouth. EARLY BAN UPON E LOS ANGELES, July 10.

As to the Industrial union Itself, Mr. Oreen once expressed himself on that topic, long ago. This Is what he said: "Mass production does not have to mean either the cross-Industry or ganization of the I. W. W. type or abandonment of the craft union of the American Federation of Labor. Very likely It will mean reorganiza tion along new Industrial lines. In dustries may be organized as a whole. Crafts within these Industrie may get linked together within the na tional body, "But this new type organisation will resemble shop councils In opera tion and management more than anything today (lOJfl) existing within the present federation labor unions."
