PAGE TWELVE fEDFORD M An, TRIBUNE, MEDFORD. OKEGpy. THURSDAY. REPTEifBER 1. 1938. T E AI President Associated Farm ers of Oregon Says Bill Is Being Fought by Racketeers and Dictators HOOD RIVER. Sept. 1. (Spl.) 'Contrary to propaganda being dis seminated by certain labor leaders . the initiative bill of Oregon farmer. to liberate the state from foreign la bor dictators utd racketeers, does not strike at labor unionism,' declares H L. Shoomaker, president- nf the As sociated Farmers of Oregon. "Contrary also to propaganda being spread by the self same labor leaa ers, there ts a genuine need for this particular legislation." he continued adding that the Associated Farmers of Oregon were sponsoring the meas- tire In conjunction with the Oregon Farm Bureau, Eastern Oregon Wheat League. Hood River Orowers Club and other farm organizations and leaders. "This farmers' measure,' reumed Mr. Shoomaker. "recognises and pre server every principle of labor un ion lam the right to organize, bar gain collectively, the right to strike, picket and boycott. "It strikes only at the power of for eign labor dictator and rocketeer ts order a strike and Invoke picketing and boycotting against employees satisfied with the wage and working conditions In order to force them to pay tribute. "In other words, It gives the work era of en Industry the right to or ganize themselves Into a union, to bargain collectively, strike, picket nd boycott when a majority votes to d so, but prohibits labor overlords and racketeers from usurping those rlghtr against the will of the workers and use them for racketeering purposes. "In brlof, this constructive measure safeguards and protects labor, agri culture. Industry and the public alike from the labor dictator and racket eer. "So much for this trumped up con tention of these labor leaders, that this moasuro militates labor unions Industry and Payrolls "Now let us see what else this farmers" measure does to liberate the people of Oregon from the Iron grip of the labor boss and racketeer "To begin with It abolishes for ever the Indefensible Juiladtctlonal strikes which for the past few years have prostrated our shipping, para lyzed agriculture and Industry and pauperized the workers. "Oregon Industries particularly Its lumber mills have been forced to shut down again and again for long periods of time by theso Jurisdiction al strikes, throwing thousands ol workers out of employment, while Ii bor bosses of rival unions have wrangled over which one should have Jurisdiction and control over the workers. "It provides further that It shall be unlawful for any Individual or organisation to Interfere with or ob struct the transporting and market ing of agricultural and other pro ducts, "In other words. It will prevent n reoocurrenco In Oregon of the dis astrous maritime strikes that coat the people more than 9600,000,000. "In turn all this means that our channels of trade and commerce will always be open and the markets if the world always be available to Ore gon products. "It means further that the wheels of Industry will hum unmolested, ta bor work unhindered, end our farm ers no longer be forced to pitch fork their way to our local markets. Ends Claw;, Racketeering "This farmers' measure further makes It unlawful for union dictators and racketeers to use money, wrung from honest, law abiding union men to hire thugs and gangsters to beat up honest workers, burn and bomb property and perpetrate murder It self. "Oregon fa Just emerging from such a reign of labor terrorism, -ind, If this bill Is enacted Into the law. It will never witness another. 'Tills bill further makes It unlaw ful for any individual or organization to prevent, hinder or molest any per son from working or any person from hiring u worker. "What doea that mean? Knthnmement of Citizenship "It menus that every man haa a Ni;ht to live, has the right to mke a living tor himself and family. "It means that our young men our future cltlrens thousands of theuwwho are now walking the street without work, will be entitled to work and earn a living without the hindrance or molestation of labor union bosses nnd their hirelings. "It means that si! m.n are equal ED to i v pay;, ''' HIDH J&k RENipS HOUSEWIVES PICKETINC lnIfethnalGreeit.ee Hod of London have formed a tenants association to voice their complaints. They charge: undue delay in making repairs and the charging of rents in excess of figure fixed by the rent acts. and have equal rights mean the dethronement of the foreign labor dictator and the enthronement of American citizenship. 'Now, I submit In all frankneoa and candor, la there anything In any of these provisions I have quoted, to which an honest, law abiding Amer ican citizen cannot subscribe, be he laborer or employer, former profes sional man or layman? Subtle propaganda ts now also be ing spread by certain labor leaders that this legislation Is no longer nec essary as organized labor has set up an adequate police machinery of lis own to police Its own organizations and prevent another reign of labor terrorism. When the Drill Was Hlrk "This novel proposal reminds tic of the old familiar Jingle: 'When the Devil was sick, the Devil a Saint would be When the Devil waa well, the Devil a Saint was he." "It further reminds me that the Oregon State Federation of Labor In Ita convention In June at Tillamook. adopted a resolution denouncing the prosecution of gangstors and thugs hired by bosses and racketeers of the Teamsters' union during the labor reign of terrorism as prosecutions and pledging Ita financial aid to those unions In thla controversy. Tho particular resolution appears on page SO of the published pro- i ccedlngs of tho annual convention of the federation. "With that kind of a resolullou sanctioning crime on Its convention records what can the public pos sibly expect In the way of policlnc and law enforcement at the handf of the Oregon State Federation of Labor? "Moreover were the proposal in good faith the federation would be utterly powerlesa to prevent another reoccurrence of tabor terrorism In this state. Ridiculous Proposal "In fact the strikes through whtnh Oregon has been passing the last few years have been so replete with riot ing, violence and vandalism that fat a while they not only swept aside all police authority but defied the strong arm of the government Itaer. "It must be apparent to anyone who has given the situation so much as a passing glance that this whole proposal of the federation la so ut terly ridiculous that It is unworthy of any consideration. "In conclusion let me found the wsrnlng to all voters not to be misled by any of this propaganda that 1j put forth to encompass the defeat of this meritorious and construct!? measure.
