representatives who said they poke for a bipartisan bloc of 100 proposed Tuesday that work relief be made permanent They suggested also that be appropriated to give 3000-00- 0 men jobs at about $67 a

picket the right to invoke the law to com-- 4 pel the employer to bargain collectively so eventually it may also win the right to occupy the plant by sitting down in it until its grievances are settled or in plainer langue until its demands are granted The analogy is I think superficial and highly misleading For what Mr Landis has overlooked is that to stop production by seizing a factory is a wholly different thing from stopping production by leaving the factory All the other rights which Mr the Landis mentions confirm freedom of every individual to refuse to work and his right as a free man to try to persuade others to'cooperate with him The right to organize unions is the right of men to combine freely The right to with other men strike is the right to refuse to work The right to picket peaceably is in essence nothing but the right to exercise freedom of speech But the right to sit down and lock up the plant and hold it until demands are granted would if legalized make any group of men who happened to be working in a plant the lawful masters of the property Neither the owners nor other workers outside nor the community could use the plant except on the terms strikers dictated by the Such a right will not be rec- ognized by the law because no civilized community could possibly admit hat the casual occupants of a plant are the lawful masters of it did Washington Allen (D)' Pennsylvania and Etcher (D) Idaho More Funds Sought The appropriation they proposed Would be about $550000000 more than the amount mentioned by the president in his budget message for recovery and relief To make up the difference the group proposed that "additional taxes be levied on the basis of ability to pay and benefits received” Congressional leaders said so far as they knew President Roosevelt still was planning on holding the recovery and relief Appropriation for Objectives of Strike next year to $1853154000 despite efforts of state and city officials May Become Lawful I cannot believe that Mr Landis and the house bloc to obtain a larger n urn really means that the strike may become lawful What Outlines Views “Maverick said "we' believcour he must mean' ts that many of Ideas represent the coordinate be the objectives for which the strikers are now fighting liefs of a large group of people There is nothing radical in it It will eventually be sanctioned by law There is a wdrld of difIs simply a question of establishing the permanent responsibility of the ference between these two propgovernment to keep the country ositions between saying that the may be

prevented” they argued “if the fused the two ideas Recognizbuying power of the masses is main- ing that most important human tained as production and profits in rights have had to be won by crease" challenging the existing law that sit-do- sit-do- sit-do- And as the development proceeds we shall repeat the history of all he has Is by acts of rebellion made the mistake of supposing that rebellion itself may become lawful i Never In the history of the law has rebellion been made law- -' fuL Only the rights demanded by the rebels have been legalthe ized Thus for example Volstead act was nullified by an act of rebellion in which a large part of the American people conspired with bootleggers and smugglers The result of that rebellion was the repeal of the Volstead act and the legalization of the sale of liquor But bootlegging was not legalized by repeal Smuggling was not legalized by of rebelacts lawless The repeal lion by which the prohibition was ' challenged Court Hearing Police Guard Japanese Parry Challenge To Cut Textile Labor Hours End Opposed Boston Home have not received the sanction of the law Rebellion Teehnic To Obtain Rights Now there seems to me to be little doubt that in the strike labor has discovered a technique of rebellion by which it will obtain rights that it has not n effectively enjoyed The both in practice and as a threat is achieving what repeated declarations of both party platforms and of congress in the Wagner act have promised to labor but have been unable to deliver With the appearance of the lawless as it is and always will-bthe days of antiunionism plus Pinkertonism are numbered That is a “great good For the right of the worker to be represented and consulted in the making of labor contracts is as fundamental a civil right as his right as a citizen to vote But the certain consequence of the successful organization of labor is that the new right will at once call into being a new duty Mr William Green has seen that and shrinks from it But it is inescapable When labor has obtained the Tight to organize and thereby the power to stop produc-ittion at will that power will self be regulated bylaw So the necessary and inevitable next step strikers in so far as the achieve their objective or as the principles of the Wagner act are made effective will be a supplementary section of the Wagner act holding the recognized unions legally responsible and compelling them to submit their grievances to some form of compulsory adjudication For the strike the boycott the belong to the phase of labor's history when unionism is not fully refognizad fthd Is not yet powerful Wd are passing out On the railroads of that phase we have passed out of it already sit-do- sit-do- e other industrial communities and we shall see that the full legal recognition of labor unions has as its logical consequence the gradual outlawry of the strike in all its forms Just as no one has any sympathy with' the boot- -' legger now that we have repeal so public sentiment will turn against strikes when the unions are organized and recognized It is not only in Germany Italy and Russia that labor is organized and the strike outlawed In England and in Australia countries as free as our own but with far more highly developed labor unionism labor has been made legally responsible and the right to strike is by American standards severely restricted For a modern community must have the representation of organized labor But it cannot endure the misery of a stoppage in vital in- dustries So tfye choice here as is between the path elsewhere taken by the free countries and that taken by the dictatorships It is the one or the other Either labor will win the right to organize as in England and Australia but will accept along with it the duty to arbitrate its grievances or it will be compelled to organize' as in the despotisms and then compelled to accept what the government commands So Mr Landis is quite correct when he says that "the history of our law is replete with illustrations of the creation of new rights" But it is also replete with the creation of new duties And if he will examine the development of labor’s rights in our time he will see what is the character of those new duties BOSTON April (INS)— Police WASHINGTON April 6 W— An effort to end tte senate judiliary are guarding the
