Merit of Union Penetrates Open Shop Stronghold
Declaring that Los Angeles “has suffered incalculable loss through its reputation of being the only first-string city in America fighting organized labor,” the “Daily News” of that California city printed, on December 28, an editorial calling on all employers to accept bona fide labor organization as the collective bargaining agencies of their employes. The editorial was inspired by the National Meditation Board of a threatened strike on the Pacific Electric, a large suburban railroad owned by the Southern Pacific. Right Road to Peace Among other things, the settlement provided for union recognition. The latter, the editorial points out, is “the right road to industrial peace and eventually to economic restoration.” This is a highly significant
statement to be made by a Los Angeles daily paper. Some of the most powerful anti-union interests in the world are located there, and the city has long been notorious as an “open shop” haven. Bulwark Against Communism “The Southern Pacific,” the editorial declares, “wins special commendation in the fact that, while the Pacific Electric operates in Los Angeles and contiguous territory where collective bargaining has long been taboo, the management declined to come under the spell of those who call it ‘patriotism’ when employers combine for their mutual interests, but .‘communism’ when employes do it. “Presiueni Angus MacDonald of the S. P. has the opportunity to note and the intelligence to understand that communism can never get a foothold in America as long
as capital and labor can sit around the same table and settle their disputes in amicable fashion. “Los Angeles has suffered incalculable loss' through its reputation of being the only first-string city in America fighting organized labor and denying to the man and woman who- works for a living the right to bargain for his product. “We have but to read the record of new industry in San Francisco (a strongly unionized city) to appreciate what harm has been done by keeping alive vendettas of the past. “But we are here at last entering a new era. The action of men like President MacDonald signals it and the expressed attitude of scores of Los Angeles employers guarantees it. “The day has already passed when the police force can be

states outside of Indiana disclose that during the first nine months of 1934 there has been an increase in fatalities of 16.54 per cent over the corresponding period of 1933. The increase in Indiana for the same comparative periods was hut 2.15 per cent and was exceeded by but eight states in the Union. It is felt that a portion of this fine showing must be due to the safety program ' put on by the State Highway Department of Indiana in the widening of shoulders, culverts and bridges, the elimination of curves and by the general campaign for more safe and sane n^otoring. I n d ; i a n a Js ^neighbor states disclose shocking increases in fatalities for the period covered above. Illinois shows an increase of 24.55 per cent, Michigan 21.31 per cent, Ohio 15.35 per cent and Kentucky 38.05 per cent. The comparison of these figures with Indiana’s record makes that of the

A Distinction
Congress taboos the League of Nations as a net to entrap the United States into international trouble. But the World Court is looked up to as a means of getting Nations out of trouble—which ought to be a good thing for a peaceful people like our own. So the Senate may join up. The Other Roosevelt Alice Roosevelt Longworth blew into Washington from Cincinnati the other day and took down the “for sale” sign in front of her Massachusetts Avenue home, which she has reopened for the season. Alice is still a “Princess” and continues to wield her sceptre. Broader and Better The nation may reasonably look forward for a Government program that will be broader and more practical than that which came out of Washington a year ago. The President and his principal advisors have been checking up on all the
great experiments, adventures ahu speculative plans that have been in operation. Now comes the new models for 1935. There will be better political vehicles than those operated during former depression years. Never Too Old Former Vice President Charles Curtis is practicing law in Washington. He is 75 years old, in good politics, and making money.” politihs, and making money.” Who’s Afraid The scrapping of another treaty by Japan isn’t worrying high officials in Washington. Japan is bounding forward ,and through its conquests has taken over a good deal of new territory, which it expects to keep. Japan is expected to seek new treaties which will recognize its dominant position in the Orient. Unde Sam entertains no fear of the Japanese—in the Phillipines, on the Pacific coast or elsewhere.

And Now the Home Elevator
Residence elevators, heretofor restricted only to the most costly homes, may soon become relatively common. Specifications of new residence elevators, recently announced by a large manufacturer, indicate that the entire' cost of a home installation need not exceed the cost of a good automobile, while operating costs are negligible. This is particularly good news to those whose households include aged persons, invalids or cripples, while the advantages of a private elevator in one’s home to transport furniture, luggage, household equipment and meals from one floor to another need not be emphasized. The elevator now available for home use can accommodate from one person to several. The model that will probably prove most popular is large enough to carry a person in a wheel-chair and an attendant. The actual space ne‘eded for a home elevator is but 3 feet 5 inches by 3 feet 9 inches plus the thickness of any new walls to complete the shaft enclosure. For the walls it is seldom necessary to allow over five inches for the thickness of the new walls, and sometimes they can be kept to two inches. Where existing walls can be used for one or more sides of the new shaft, they *can readily be made fireproof without structural changes. The machine for home dlevator List allations is placed in the cel-
The Follow Up Last week I discussed the health examination. Obviously, no procedure of this kind will work unless something is done about it. It means nothing merely to examine children and accumulate a list of defects and diseases. That is only tha first step. It’s purpose is to find wherein children are handicapped. Having that kn^wlj ;dge, it is possible to stop the | eaks. Thus, the follow-up of the icalth examination becomes one of j ;he most important activities in I che entire school health program. Perhaps you Jiave had a visit from a school nurse or you may have received a notice or a letter telling of some physical handicap found in your child at the examination. These are the two most commonly used types of follow-up. But, like the examination, they are useless unless something is done about it. Here is where you can definitely help the school to do a better educational job, but more to the point it is your chance to give your child a better educational oppor-
