News - Letter
(Continued from Yesterday)
Commonly known as the Wagner
Labor Disputes Bill, S. 1958 a bill to
promote equality of bargaining pow
er between employers and employ
ees, to diminish the causes of labor
disputes, to create a National Labor
Relations Board, and for other pur
poses, is now awaiting action of the
House.
By protecting the right of em
ployees to organize and bargain col
lectively, this bill should go far to
wards removing the source of in
dustrial strife and .unrest by pro
viding the necessary friendly adjust
nient of the differences. The so
called company unions could not
truly represent the workmen since
they were almost certain to be dom
inated by the employers. Obviously,
the workmen are entitled to have
their own organization without in
terference or coercion from the em
ployers or from anybody else. The
Wagner Labor Disputes Bill attemp
ts to accomplish just that. Unques
tionably, the employer will benefit
as much as the employee in the en
actment of the bill through the elim
ination of immediate settlement of
differences that have heretofore
caused the strikes and shutdowns in
from which everyone suffered.
Being definitely in favor of the
bill, Delegate Dimond is doing what
he can to aid in its passage.
PA bill (H. R. 8213) has been in
troduced by the delegate to prohibi'
— the use of fish traps in the water:
of Alaska and also to limit the size
and tonnage of boats used in seine
fishing and to prohibit non-resi
dents from seine fishing. The princ
pal differences between this bill anc
that introduced by Dr. Sirovich ear
ly in the session are: First that H. R
8213 would prevent any person oth
er than a resident from engaging ii
seine fishing in Alaska. The defini
tion of the word resident substantial
ly follows that given in the fur anc
1 game act, and would require con
tinuous residence for the period o
one year before any person conic
engage in seine fishing. Second the
limitations of the size of boats usee
in seine fishing, which are as fol
lows: not over 50 feet in length oi
of a greater beam width than If
feet, and tonnage not to exceed 21
net tons or 35 gross tons.
This bill follows closely House
Joint Memorial No. 2 adopted by the
Territorial Legislature at the recenl
session. The provisions with re
spect to the tonnage of seine boat:
used in fishing was recommended b>
Edw. D. Coffey, General Secretarj
of the Alaska Resident Fishermen’s
Union. Mr. Coffey also recommend
ed a limitation of breadth of seine
boats to 15 feet but the Territor
ial Legislature in the Memorial re
_J ferred to, placed the breadth at 1C
feet.

CURRENT
COMMENT i
(Continued from Page One)
i who settles down under his own
vine and fig tree, glad for the mom
ent that the world is shut out, is
ready to get back into the swing
of things, and rejoices inwardly
when he can hear in Arkansas, some
one staging a political harangue in
j Idaho. Perhaps the secret lies in
the fact that the average American
t is more or less a politician at heart.
The President by executive order,
has fixed the scale of wages for
those employed under the works
program. They vary from $19 to
$95 per month, depending upon the j
nature of the service rendered and -
upon the locality, the locality no
doubt being taken under considera
tion as an index of the cost of liv
ing. Bad weather will not influence
pay if the worker reports on the
job. For most classes an 8 hour day
and 40 hours per week are prescrib
ed. The benefits of the order do
not apply to anyone who is in pris
on. One worker in a family is con
sidered enough. Safety conditions
| must prevail. No person under 16
shall be employed, nor shall anyone
whose health does not fit him for
his task. Stated in plain language,
cripples may work if their physical
disability does not unfit them for
their task or render them subject
to special hazards. Wages may not
be assigned and there will be no
crowd of sharks at hand on pay day
to clean up on those who have been
so thoughtless as to spend their mon
ey before they get it. There have
been some suggestions to the effect
that the wage scale is too low, but
aside from that, the President's or
der is considered to embody con
ditions that should prevail on any
well-organized and fairly conducted
j job.
I A scientist says that when one ex
amines an oyster under the micro
i scope he finds evidence tending to
I the conclusion that oysters have
power to think. There are many
human beings who ought to be sub
jected to microscopic scrutiny, to the
end that they may not be grouped
unjustly in a class by themselves.
