Right To Work In America Not In Constitution Mould Have Orovernim-nt Insure 'gainst Unemployment as Against Old Age ■Washington—'What's ail this talk alxmt the "right to work" that you hem so much about? It people have any such right it j appears that about 7,000.000 of them »ie being cheated -deprived, that is, 01 !*" riifht. And yet 'here appears to lx an overwhelming preponder itin oi opinion that each human Ixii born with such a right. Diligent research Jails to discov er the recognition of any such right in the Constitution, in the acts of congies' or. In the old common law. Federal Judge Wilkerson of Chica go 10 years ago laid down from trie bench the dictum that "The right to work is not an absolute right," as he granted a labor injunction. That little crack of Wilkerson s. however, is one of the things that will be used against him w hen pro- j greskiyc members of .the senate try I to prevent confirmation of his pro motion to the federal circuit court of appeals They contend ttiat. al though the law books do not men non It, there is an absolute moral 'ight to work which no one dares dispute. Their theory ;» that when society denies a man the right to work-or a chance to work—it Is, In effect, sentencing him to death by starvation or to a ’ife of crime. But probably the first attempt to make a legal provision of "the right to Work " is advanced by Congress man David John Lewis of Mary land. who was working in the coal mines at the age of nine and is now recognized as one of the most able members of tile house. Lewis has introduced a bill for a national system ba wd on the Gerard Swope plan for employment stabilization backed by results of the congress mans studies in this country and Europe. He points out that where as the Swope-.program would con fer suclr benefits as old age pen sions, life and disability insurance and unemployment insurance On workers already employed, it is also necessary to provide for the unem ployed Lewis' proposes a veini-compul sory equal division of employment "The right to work is as undis puted as the rights of property," Lewis says, “but it is ineffective be cause it has not yet been clothed with the same legal sanctions as property. So this right., the most primeval of rights, will no^ insure the worker a loaf of bread tomor row, or his wife and children against eviction. The section of my i bill undertaking to provide such le-1 gal sanctions says Plan Outlined. “ 'It is hereby declared as a pun-! ciple of social Justice that ' a i the j citizen possesses a right to work and! is entitled to the protection ol the | laws in asserting such light and in! demanding an equal share of the i employment available i the trade; and 'b' it is also declared to be the duty of the trade association con cerned to provide him wUh an equal share of the employment available j for which he Is competent; and in j default thereof to render him Just | compensation In lieu thereof." The Lewis bill etnbodie Swope's j idea of national trade associations | and supervision by the Federal; trade commission giving equal re- j presentation—three members to em-' ploycrs, three to employe, and three I to the consuming public—on the I trade association managing boards, j The board, furthermore would cTe termine monthly the gross hours of employment available in the coming mont h, then divide that by the em- I ployes haying jolts plus the regis-1 tered craftsmen out of work, arriv-! ing at a monthly employment quota j per worker, he employer who work- J ed anyone in excess would pay an j excise tax equal to half the wages ! of the overtime involved, to go into! the unemployment compensation I fund. Disemployed workers would! be able to sue the trade associa-1 tion when they failed (o obtain their j quotas of employment. 60 Chickens Killed In Search For Ring1 _ !

Objects To Shelby Selling City Plant To The Skill or: Selling our city light plant to the S. P l), particularly at this time, seems to be unwise, and from the way r hear the people talking three to one hold the same opinion. How many men would sell their homes or their land just now at the prices they could get? Not a one unless he had to. No property is bringing what. It should now. Every man who has a house he can gel $3,000 for today is sure that inat same house will be worth *4,500, or $5,000 when money mat ters sad values get adjusted. Am I not right? And if our light plant is worth a million and one hundred thousand dollars now, what will It be worth four or five years from now? Enough, Judging by the way It has increased in value, to pay all our debts and leave over enough money to build school buildings or ui •••thing else needed then. When we have it as we have It now. where he can say how’ it shall be run because we elect the people who run It, why sell It to someone we cannot elect or put out of of fice? If it is sold and the rate should not be quite so nice as some think, what would or could we do about it, except howl? And what good would the howling do? We Could, of course, have our light and power cut off. but we’d Just be cut ting off our nose to spite our face Not many of us, although we'd talk big. would be willing to do without electric lights and burn kerosene lamps again. Even if a few of 11s would, it wouldn’t break the S. P. U. They’d look for us back sooner or later and get us. What of the other towns where they have S. P U? Om\, officials visited there, but didn't let out a whisper about what they found out when they came back. Right in Shelby is an electric dealer selling electrical appliances discarded by citizens in a town vis ited by Shelby officials because the citizens there took them cut because they could not stand the S P. U rate. If a man is going to buy a certain kind of automobile and he is a sensible man. doesn’t he go ask someone who has a car of that make how his car is standing up? If we’re thinking of S. P. U. service, then why not hear something for those who tried it? It may sound good on paper, but how does it work out? An automobile may look good in a show window' and in a picture, but how will it run, how much gas will it burn, and how will it stand up? The wise man does not buy things on the pretty spiel put up by the man selling. He investigates for himself and finds out how oth ers like it. And when we*re selling we should do the same thing. The 8. P. U. spiel about rates and tax es may sound good now, but what about later when they eurn around and tax every house, the houses of the poor, to pay the S. P. 0. for our street lights? Ask Blacksburg how much they have to dig up out of taxes to pay for getting their street lights? Are Hickory people satisfied with S. P. U. rates? Why are Charlotte people, right where the S. P. U. office Is located, writ ing letters to the paper every dav protesting about their light bills? They’re even trying to get some body to run for legislature who will try to help them get their lights at a lower cost. Ask close-by Shelby ■ people—the people who live out at Cleveland Springs on an S. P. U. i line. See what they have to say. They have the report out that it will help the little man. Yeah! Maybe it will, but are the main fellows going about working for the same little men? And are they ar guing for it just to help the poor man? If you think so, go ahead and help sell it. but think twice. W. YAN WEATHERS. New Traffic Rules On Four Track Bouleard Slow And Fast Traffic Lanes On Gastonia-Charlotte Highway Abolished. Cleveland county motorists who have occasion to use the Wilkinson boulevard, the four-track highway between Gastonia and Charlotte will have traffic rules radically changed on this beautiful highway. Cocoa Is becoming more popular in Germany than beer Seems that Germans are becoming cocoa nuts. TRISTEE S SALE. By virtue of the power of sale con tained in a deed of trust executed by fc. E Holcombe and wife, to me as trustee on April 18th, 1923, and default haling been made In the indebtedness thereby secured. I, as trustee, will sell for cash at public auction to the highest bidder at the court house door in Shelby, N C on Saturday.

The ioregoing property will be sold subject to any existing unpaid taxes against same. This January 26th, 1932. R- L. RYBURN. Trustee 4t Jar. 27c Hereafter, says Lieutenant L. R Fisher, all traffic will use the out ! side lanes except in passing other | cars. Heretofore the two outside lanes were uSed by slow traffic and the two inside lanes by fast traffic. The result was a dangerous situation when, in the fast lane, a car came up from behind and, attempting tn pass another car in that lane, was forced over into the fast latte of cars going in the opposite direction. The highway has been properly marked so that no confusion is ex acted to result from the change, he said. He also called attention to the fact that the same 45-mile speed j limit obtains on the Wilkinson ■boulevard as on othe highways. Instructions were in the nature of : state-wide regulations, he said, but it so happened that no other high way in the state has the necessary width for such a traffic arrange ment. He was hopeful that the high percentage of accidents on that road will be reduced.
