Sometimes Some-times he has to wait a long time for it, but it always comes sooner or,; later. ,; . . lHfsi most recent break is the approval by Congress of tfieNois-LaGuardia bill outlawing the "yellow dog" con- trsc w " . . :- : To" understand what a real break this is, you must cast a -glance or two back at the long bistory of organized labor. Jhthe old days before steam engines and large-scale factory employment, of course, there was no need for a labor . union., - Every worker knew his employer personally and was personally known by him, and the two could usually usual-ly ?trike a fair bargain for the worker's services without much trouble. - YjChe arrival of the factory, in which anywhere from 100 to 5Q00 men would work on one job, changed all of that. Worker and boss became strangers. The boss could say,. f Vtake,it or leave it," and the worker had no comeback. ' 'So workers began to organize and the law came down ? ; on them. For a time labor unions were highly illegal. Or-ll Or-ll ganizers in England were treated as criminals and deported i '' to Australia along with murderers and highway robbers. C" Not until years had passed was it generally admitted that :f lyage-earners did have the right to form associations and .bargain collectively. - .Then some genius invented the "yellow dog" contract, v That works like this: " . "You, as a wage-earner, get a job in a factory. When - you get it you are required to sign a contract pledging yourself your-self j never to join a labor union. You also agree not to quit , work'without the boss consent. By and by times get hard. You need higher wages and the-boss won't give them to you. You and your fellow work- ers decide to strike. The boss promptly gets an injunction from some judge prohibiting you from breaking your con- V tVact. , I? r Then, when you strike, you are not simply out of a job; " you . have violated a court order and you can be thrown in 1 jail. .That is what the Norns-LaGuardia bill is aimed at.

Today's Observations by the OBSERVER Jim Marshall Editor Western Feature The years and the wind and the sunshine have carved a bronze cartoon car-toon upon tfae face of old Nels and out of it peer two kindly blue eyes. He sits at the door of his cabin in a high mountain valley - and looks out across the blue-green meadow rolling away to the stream below and behind him the firs and pines and tamarack rustle. their spires etched in green and black against the white backdrop back-drop of the peaks beyond and the blue curtain of the sky... 9p )fr Tle gray smoke rises from the old pipe and hangs in the stillness lik a crazy flower Old Nels' broad thunmb rests on the yellowed page of a great book... "I just sit here and read about those old conquerors" says Nels "about Genghis Khan and Tamerlaneand Tamer-laneand him that the Hindus call Iskander and what sort of a name Is that for Alexander? "I read about Hannibal and his elephants and those old Vikings Vik-ings that came sailing out. . .all the conquerors I read about them!" 9fr 9 3fr Sfi Yes and when you're not readingbid read-ingbid Nels what then, eh! : "OhT says Nels closing the book and looking out across the meadow "then I work at my place here "You see that little stream. At? She used to be all choked with brush and I clean her out and that meadow she used to be all snags and stumps and" I clean them out, too so it is smooth and clear "I work at this place 15-20 years ah! she was a mess when I come here but cfoe made me a living..." . But those old conquerors says Ncla tamping down the fragrant tcf-acco with a hard-skinned finger4 they were the boys "They kill a lot of men" says old Nels "and they conquer whole continents and what their armies leave behind after they pass is nothing just smoking ruins, and I'orpses "They were destroyers it is true but somehow I admire them..." and the old Viking spirit glints out of the tired blue eyes Yes. Old Nels they were ' the conquerors marching their hosts across half the world to sit at Jast in perilous dominion over the groveling millions --- with armed guards ahead of them and armed guards at their back and a shtaer of fear at the galloping hooves of every mes- senger and uneasily sleep behind a ring of steel while you old Nels all you've sot is a mountain domain that vou carved out with your srood right arm and the right . to sleep nights undisturbed AND.
