BOB REYNOLDS TO PUSH ALIEN BILL IN CONGRESS DURING JANUARY, 1937; SENTIMENT FOR DRASTIC MEASURE WASHINGTON—At the opening of the session of the 75th congress in January, Senator Robert R. Reynolds will renew his fight fo renactment of a far-reaching and drastic immigra tion bill, he states'. The junior senator, in outlining the campaign that he proposes to wage to shut the doors of the United States to undesirable aliens, and to force deportation of those not legally entiteld to remain in this country, said that he would also have a com panion bill at the next • session of congress for the bill which he push ed at the last session. This will ap ply to the number of aliens who may be employed on any job ip this coun try'. He would limit the number to ten per cent of the total. “Sentiment has been growing since the adjournment of congress for a AUTOMOBILES We have 100 good clean new and used cars to select from at all times._ See us be fore you buy or trade.

I am quite sure that such a law will be enacted during the first session <jf the next congress. “Moreover, I shall introduce a bill that not more than ten per cent of the employes on any job of work be aliens unless they have taken legal steps to become American citizens. Other countries apply those rigorous provisions to the people of our coun try, and why should we not apply it to their nationals. I have been as sured by leaders in the cause of re stricted immigration that they not only desire such legislation but that they will support it on every occa sion.” Senathor Reynolds said today he had renewed his efforts to secure location of an office of the social se curity board at Asheville. “I nm told that it has been definitely agreed that an office shall be opened first at Raleigh, and that other offices may go to Charlotte and Salisbury. I want one for Asheville, for the west ern section of the state. The office at Raleigh will be for the western section.” As yet North Carolina has taken no steps to take advantage of the social security act provisions. Jesse S.

PRINTING TRADES FIGHT ILLEGAL USE OF LABEL DETROIT, Mich.—The Allied Printing Trades Council here, in line with Councils in other leading centers, is conducting a relentless drive against the illegal use of the union label by “scab” printing concerns, with a determination to definitely wipe out this nefarious practice. The fight is regarded as part of a cam paign to increase the use of the legit imate union label on printing. As a result of victorious prosecution, three violators of the union label law, pro hibiting the use of the union label by unauthorized shops, have found them selves on the well-known “hot seat”. A list of union shops, together with the rules governing the union label— “what union shops can and cannot do”—has just been issued for wide distribution.

The editorial, “This Shameful Page" (in Seattle history) appeared in The Times August 14. The suit asserted The Times intended to charge that Beck ordered the strike, established the picekt lines and was responsible for acts of violence. The suit also contended the newspa per intended to brand Beck as a la bor racketeer and radical racketeer, intent upon overthrowing the author ity of the lawfully constituted city officials and “stifling the constitu tional rights of free speech and right to do business” and that The Post Intelligencer had been compelled to suspend publication by his order.

Fourth Street PHOTO-ENGRAVERS PRESIDENT SEES SURVIVAL OF THE A. F. OF L.-VALZ INSISTS UPON MAJORITY DECISIONS NEW YORK.—Edward J. Volz, president of the International i Photo-Engravers Union of North America, promised to support the American Federation of Labor suspension of the Committee for Industrial Organization. j Opening the thirty-seventh annual convention of the union, President Volz said Photo-engravers had seen the failure of indus trial unionism in the international union. The union head expressed the belief that the A. F. of L. will survive any final split wtih the Committee for Industrial Organization and that the committee, like other dissident groups in the past, will ultimately disappear, tions delegated to the Federation’s Executive Council at the Atlantic City tions delegate dto the Federation’s Executive Council at the Atlantic City convention last October. “This usurpation of power and carrying on of activities contrary to the adopted policy of the Federation by a minority group cannot be condoned if the Federation, as such, is to continue to exist,*’ Volz maintained. •The first requisite of any organization worthy of the name must be insistence upon full observance of majority decisions, by all its affiliates, in all instances where such decisions are recognized as adequate and binding. Any other course or policy would be weakening and suicidal.” Matthew Woll, first vice-president of the organization and third vice president of the A. F. of L., set forth the view in his report that “neither compulsion on the part of the C.I.O. nor compulsion on the part of the American Federation of Labor will solve the present unfortunate cleavage in the ranks of American organized labor.” 4 “Indeed,” Mr. Woll continued, “each of the respective affiliated organi zations may exist independently of each other and all may be one way or other strive singly or in combination to defeat or submerge the other. But in'this process of antagonism or of lack of unity, of coordination and of co-operation, all labor is bound to suffer.” STRIKE BREAKERS DRIVEN OFF BY STEVEDORES IN KEY WEST. FLA.
