Phones 1 and 586 and the Worst is Yet to Come n n it Ors Truths Pondered While Riding at Anchor "Then gently scan your brother man"— -By Mr. Modestus- Wby are we living— In America, rather than elsewhere? You may answer: Because our par ents came here— Fair enough but what brought them here, from other lands Answer must be: They sought a different way of life. From England, Pilgrim Fathers— Sought freedom to worship accord ing to their own conscience— From Ireland, they sought liberty, with better food supply— From Germany, they left a land dominated by military rule— From Italy, they came to find free land and better wages— From many another land, they came seeking liberties— Which they found here, beyond what they knew how to expect. But the dominant language was the Men of Merrie England, set out to make a New England— Traditions they brought, of re ligious and political democracy— When their leaders sat down to formulate a constitution— They harked back to all ancient de mocracies— But their cornerstones came from English Magna Charta— Freedom of religion, meaning no state church— Freedom of speech, meaning no cen sorship or espionage— Bill of Rights, meaning sanctity of person and the home— These came, not from Germany, Italy, Russia— They came from England, the An glo-Saxon land. Now, around the world they stretch— These lands which are marked by these liberties— Not only our United States of Amer ica— Whence these principles' repercus sions affected Old England— Also in Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa— Even in India, where peoples re pressed climb slowly up— These democratic liberties stamped a different way of life— Bred different races of men, women and glorious children— Opened out into democratic institu tions and habits— Showing the way to the rest of world, civilized or otherwise— How n^nra effective 1 ratmniTp.

We can produce That much has been settled— Better than under any other way of life— We can find food, clothing, shelter, life, and leisure— But now we face another test, in evitable in history— Can this generous way of life de fend itself and its peoples? Can democracy discipline itself to Wednesdays, Labor Temple G. Brandel, 1833 Pleasant Ave. Earl Price. meet the autocrats? Is the democratic mind capable also of military self-control? Curiously, the answer comes from industrial armies— "We have already been disciplined in democracy and labor— "That discipline can be transferred to any proper objective*" 40-Cent Hourly Pay Asked For Drug Industry Worker Washington, D. C. (ILNS).—A min imum wage of 40 cents an hour for all employees engaged in the manufac ture of drugs, medicines and toilet preparations was recommended in report by an industry committee to Colonel Philip B. Fleming, administra tor of the Wage and Hour Division, The recommendation, if approved by the administrator after a public hear ing, will increase the wage rate of some 9,000 employees. Approximately 44,000 workers are employed in about 1,500 establishments whose products bring them within the industry as de fined for the purpose of establishing a minimum wage. :a The recommendation was voted by majority of the committee—12 to 6. The employer members voted against the recommendation after motions for a 35-cent and a 37%-cent minimum wage proposed by members of the employer representatives had failed to carry. (Continued from page one) SUPREME COURT of upon the constitutional rights' freedom of speech and press. Justice Reed took a similar view. Like Justice Black, Reed said there was no findings that the union en couraged or planned violence. "To deny this right of peaceful COAL 3 FROM THE COMPANY ...... DELIVERED BY Union Drivers GIVE US A TRIAL Sou WiU Be Satisfied! Phones 47 and 160 picketing to thousands because of the violence of a few," he declared, "means the cutting off of one of the constitu tionally protected ways in which or derly adjustments of economic dis putes are brought about." The second picketing case involved an injunction granted to the owner fend 16 women employees of a Chicago beauty parlor who resisted efforts at unionization by the Cosmetologists' and Hairdressers' Union, A. F. of L. The owner alleged that none of his employees was a union member or wished to join. Free Speech Violated The court overturned the injunction, Justice Frankfurter holding that solely before the court was an instance of "peaceful persuasion," disentangled from violence and free of "picketing en masse or otherwise conducted" so as to occasion "imminent and aggra vated danger." "We are asked," he atated^ "to sus tain a decree which for purposes of this case asserts as the common law of a state that there can be no 'peace ful picketing or peaceful persuasion' in relation to any dispute between an employer and a trade union unless the employer's own employees are in con troversy with him. "Such a ban on free communi cation is inconsistent with the guarantee of freedom of speech. That a state has ample power to regulate the local problems thrown up by modern industry and to preserve the peace is axio matic. But not even these essen tial powers are unfettered by the requirements of the Bill of Rights." Justice Roberts, who,, with Chief Justice Hughes, dissented, held that the issues should have been settled on the basis of the milk wagon driv ers' decision. •'Green Hails Ford Decision Miami (ILNS).—President William Green of the American Federation of Labor said here that the Supreme Court's refusal to review the Ford Mo tor Company River Rouge case was a decision "that will strengthen and en courage the Ford employes in their de sire to organize." "Ford as well as other employers must see clearly that the right to or ganize and bargain collectively must be respected and obeyed," Green said. "The fact that this is a C. I. O. case will not prevent the A. F. of L. from organizing Ford employees into unions. Nothing will stop our campaign. "This decision will strengthen it, as it establishes definitely and clearly -the right of employes to organize into a union of their own choosing without fear of coercion."
