PRESIDENT GREEN SENDS GREETINGS American Labor Head Urges Continuance of Organization Campaign.

By William Green, President American Federation of Labor. (Written for'NEA Service and The Tim:s> Two issues of far-reaching importance should be emphasized Labor day. They are: 1. An Intensive trade union organization campaign. 2. The non partisan political cam paign of the American Federation of Labor. Wherever Labor day is celebrated, and from reports this will be almost universal, agitation should be renewed for a vigorous continuance of the campaign to 'organize every wage earner eligible to membership in a trade union. Speakers at Labor day demonstrations would do well to urge every member of a trade union to appoint himself a committee of one to seek new members. Unions that have adopted this policy have gained in membership. Members of unions who have relied upon the officers alone to accomplish results have not been so successful. The present stable conditions enjoyed by the organized wage earners .of America were not voluntarily conceded by employers. They are the result of.'organization, of years of struggle and sacrifice, until collective bargaining became the recognized vehicle through which it was possible to maintain industrial peace. No reason can be advanced why every union should no* be 100 per cent organized. It all depends upon the willingness of the members to perform their share of organization work. The importance of selecting members of Congress who will be true to their constituents and to the people generally cannot be overestimated. There is hardly a congressional

district in the United States in which the voters cannot nominate and elect a forward-looking representative. It is doubtful if there is a state in which a senator cannot be nominated and elected who will be true to the people. Tha only obstacle will be the failure of the wage earners to vote for the most acceptable candidates. Members of the House of Representatives should be elected who will refuse to permit ‘■ree men to dictate what i-.gial- ,ihall be considered and voted It is a dictatorship repugnant to our democratic Institutions and those respon-

sible should be emphatically rebuked through the ballot box. It Is not a question of party politics. It is a question of the men and the principles they represent. It is a question of which candidates most truly measure up to the requirements of the people. Labor also should be warned that ‘the conspiracy to repeal direct primary laws will be fatal to the nomination of friendly candidates. It is my hope that every wage earner will faithfully register and vote in the November election. But theso votes must be cast for candidates who will be loyal to the people. If loyal to the people they will be loywl to labor, as labor never asks fotj anything that is not good for people generally. Hi efore let us all declare that we wtll launch an organization campaign this Labor day greater than that of any previous year and that we will vote for* candidates that we know will be faithful to the wishes of labor and the people.

The New Crosley Models Better —Cost Less The 4-29

A 4-tube receiver of amazing efficiency. Such radio performance has never been possible at such a low price. Brought out early this season it quickly proved its right to a: permanent position in the Crosely line. Crescendon equipped. Price ....V $29.00

The 5*38 This five-tube receiving set, incorporating two stages of non-oscilating radio frequency amplification, regenerative Crescendon controlled detector and two stages of audio frequency amplification—remains the same excepting that the station selector dials have been placed back of the panel and are observed through windows, doing away with the sectors and pointers on the front of the panel. Price $38.00

The CROSLEY R.F.L.75 Price of the popular R. F. L.-75 has just been reduced to $65.00, due to savings effected in elimination of decorated bakelite panels and the substitution of wood panels with windows that permit the operator to observe the otherwise concealed dials. Pointers have been eliminated from the front panels. These changes, while effecting a saving, have, at the same time, made the set actually more attractive. The non-oscillating R. F. L. circuit needs no introduction. Its popularity since its announcement on December 26th has been phenomenal. Price $05.00 The 5*75 CONSOLE MODEL With Single Drum Station Selector The new five-tube 5-75, in its beautiful solid mahogany, two-toned console cabinet, with buift-in Musicone, is another most startling value in the Crosley line. The receiving set itself is the same as that used in the 5-50, with its single drum station selector. This set is destined to be an exceptionally popular one and is believed by those who have seen it to be greatly underpriced. Price $75.00
