T7 THE MARCH OF PROCRESS. '/ ' ^ SOON IT CAN BE TOLD .« Secrets which Congressional com mlttees sought to penetrate, but with ... out success, while hearings were be ing conducted on the Reciprocal Tarif bill, soon will be bared if represents ' ayes' of foreign governments succeec in negotiating the trade agreement they are eagerly pressing at the Stat( ", Department.. Immediately after President Roose velt signed the bill amending the 1931 ' - tariff law, suave spokesmen for Eu ropean, Asiatic and South America! Countries visited the State Depart ment and made it known they wen ' ready to “talk turkey” along the Uni bf /elling products of many kinds t( American consumers. Germany’s representative was on< of the first to go into action aftei the “swapping” tariff bill was sign ed, hut diplomats for certain Soutl American countries were close upoi thp European traders; . Secretary of State Hull, Secretary of Agriculture Wallace, Secretary oi Commerce Roper and other astute sui - porters of . the so-called reciproca tariff evaded direct answers to ques tions asked by Congressmen as b what the Administration proposed t< impart in greater quantities fron foreign countries. Secretary Wallac< did ,mention'“some of the finer laces,’ but it was apparent that the advo cates of the bill were hedging anc sparring with their inquisitors. : Now, it can and1 will-be told. Amen ■ can industry will soon know what pn ducts are going to be involved in th< bartering. It was admitted by advo cates of the bill that some Americai industries would be placed at a dis advantage by operation of the trad* agreements. Owners of these indue tries soon will know the worst. Work ers in these industries will have then incomes slashed, and perhaps will lx thrown out of employment entirely. • From the international standpoint hfiwaver,. the employment ratio will be balanced, for a German or CKuear workman will be employed for ever} .one thrown out of employment ii ‘America. . ■ fe:^'--:RAJLSB'''LEAIMEBSHlPX; f Z As one of the major incidents Jjr ti(ke steel controversy, .General Hug! Johnson refused to treat'furthei with the union leaders'who went tc . Washington with extravagant de mands. They w'ere the people who were demanding a general strike tc , tie up the steel industry and, hence, many- dependent industries which art leading the way to recovery.. .But General Johnson, who has been praised repeatedly for his fairness in ’ administering the NRA where indus trial relations are concerned, found ‘the union leaders “unreasonable and ■ overbearing,” to use his words, t “They are rushing tin where angels fear to tread,” the Administrator said. 1 “The plan I presented to them was a revolutionary advance in the attitude . ,of the steel industry. It offered a way to meet in substance every Single de mand I have heard In all these days of painful controversy. “The nub of; the difficulty in union '‘representation is establishing ; that union men have been freely chosen to represent workers. This plan proposed to solve the difficulty. These men re jected that.” ■- A 4- nnnthav nnint fhn OWO1 ooirl * . '“They Misconceived the rights and duties of this Administration, It is an umpire and has no right to impose any particular form of labor organi sation on any industry or any group of workers." These men sponsor a pol - icy which forbids any local from reach ing an agreement with any employers -until all locals agree with all employ ers. This is physically impossible— and yet that is one of the points upon which a strike 1b threatened.” " There, portnayed by the ehief of the ~NRA, is the crux of the cOntru-iersy •Men who are “unreasonable and over ’ bearing" making demands that are “physically impossible.” And because these ^demands are not met going bark to the steel districts to foment trouble * and demand a strike in which the pub lic was to be the sufferer. , - In this brief description of activf ties, General Johnson put his finger Upon the underlying reason why em • pioyers hesitate to permit unionixa. tion of their plants; why they oppose such moves as proposed by the Weg ner bill to create within the Ameri . can Federation of Labor a monopoFy vj; These employers through the years have run the same thing that General Johnson encountered. Unrea soning demands. Overbearing attitude Failure to reckon the necessities oi the public welfare. And bitter strife unless demands are met. WASHINGTON SNAP-SHOTS 'Kfr5 Republicans, with a minority ir the Senate, virtually controlled the final days of Congress . . . with th< • President insistent upon a speedy ad journment they were able to' bargain -as to what should be enactod, soi.ar - thing they have not bsen able to «k ' since the new Administration took of fire . . . their stategic position of be lng able to talk for several days upor imy piece of legislation' they dislikec was instrumental in scuttling severs regimenting measures, Including the ~ extension of powers to the Agricul * / fural Department. V, / ' * a ’ -v’ ,.The June crop report of the De y partment of Agriculture on cottoi has been awaited anxiously by offi cials . , . for the first time farmers Will begin to realize how much of their crop is to be a liability rather than an asset unier the stringency of the centralized control in Wash . ington. . - Concurrently with denials by Dr ■ Rexford Tugwell that he believed in ■ “national planning," “regimentation,’ and other brain-children of the Col i lege liberals, news was emanating i from Washington that a new move to ward nationalization of industry was, intended by the Relief Administration by granting funds to open idle fac . tones to place the unemployed at i world ■ . . this was being carefully' guarded pending the adjournment of i Congress since the House had prev- j i iously rejected specifically an alloca-, tion of funds to the Postoffice De |partment to building a factory in' i. West Virginia to engage in competi tion with private enterprise. I Perraps the most unexpected deve lopment of this session of Congress has been the attacks of Democrats up on tre “New Deal" program . . while Republicans have hesitated to speak out, the halls of the Senate have rung with outspoken criticism by Senators Glass, Byrd, Bailey, Smith and other Democratic leaders from the South i. • • this opposition within hi3~ own party to “Brain Trust* ideas did more than anything else to restrain Mr. Roosevelt from pressing for some of the pending measures and pushing Congress homeward. . The president insured that Social le gislation will be one of the dominant I issues of the Congressional campaigns | this Fall by sending to the Hill a mes | sage dealing with unemployment in j surance, old age pensions and the like shortly after the Republican National Committee had issued its statement in Chicago calling for progress without stretching the Constitution. ! i* ., ■ 0. x—x-X-—- ' Mft and-Mrs. Boyce Campbell an nounce the birth of- a son, Sunday,' June 17th., at Lee County Hospital.

[ There are many good reasons for | this, the first being that she knows exactly what brand of sugar she Is getting, and can tell whether or not It Is sugar that has been refined in this country under the strict United States sanitary conditions, by Amer ican labor, under the NBA code—or whether it Is foreign refined sugar. The cotton bag also keeps the sugar In the same pure, clean state in which It left the refinery. In addition, when she buys sugar in a cotton bag, she is stimulating the consumption of cotton—the crop upon which the prosperity of the agrlcultdral South largely depends. The Savannah Sugar Refinery at Savannah, Ga., (refiners of Dixie Crystals Sugar,) alone uses 10,000,000 yards of cotton cloth a year In pack ing their sugars.
