Contemporary Thought
COERCION RESENTED
While the House was debating me wage and hour
bill all the members received a letter from Homer
Martin, president of the United Automobile Workers
of America, telling them to vote for the Black-Con-
nery measure, The letter warned the members.
“That an unfavorable vote on this bill, or failure
to vote or pair in favor, will not be forgotten next
year, when Representatives ask their constituents to
re-elect them, as this will be the acid test of a Rep-
resentative's real podite."
Minnesota's Harold Knutson read his copy of the
letter to the House, commenting as follows:
"I can remember the time when, if a man sent a
letter like that to 400 members of this House of
. Representatives, he would have been haled before the
bar of the House and censured by the speaker; but
in this day of rubber stamps we take it and we smile,
and we invite more Of it."
Whether or not the Martin letter turned votes
against the bill. It is refreshing to see members on
oppgsite sides joining to rebuke such a political threat.
The right of petition is sacred, but coercion is some-
thing else, no matter what the source of it. Congress,
as Mr. Knutson says, has invited such tactics by
its supine attitude on many occasions, and members
may blame themselves when threats are freely and
openly employed to force them to bow to pressure,
from whatever source.—Washington Press.

DOES THE PRESIDENT WANT ECONOMY?
The two proposals President Roosevelt has made
tor governmental economy have aroused a storm of
opposition from all parts of the country. His first
proposal was for a drastic reduction in federal ex-
penditures for public roads, and the second was for
a curtailment of the activities of the Civilian Con-
servation Corps, with the abandonment of a number
at c00 camps in various parts of the country.
It seems he selected for his economy program the
two activities which perhaps have the greatest pub-
lic support of any governmental projects. Certainly
he should know from past experience that the pub-

NEW YORK, January 15 —The real terror of lit-
tle boys who live in the nearby suburbs are the dog-
catchers who drive around the streets in old trucks,
armed with nets the size of bedspreads and stout
clubs. I suppose this action is Justined. Still. It was
with a thrill of exaltation that I witnessed a group
of outraged kids win a fine victory over a most im-
pudent dog-catcher the other day.
There had been snow, one of the few light falls
of a disappointing (to the kids) season. At their heels,
as they wallowed in the slush and rubbed each other’s
faces in it, frolicked a dog, pride of one of the Ut-
tle boys.
Unnoticed by all a truck zoomed up quite close
and a fellow with a big net got out.
"This dog has no business being on the street,”
he growled, “and I’m going to take him in.” With
that he dropped the net over the dog and began
gathering him in.

Congressman Wright Patman whose fair trade
practices is now operating with varied success has
introduced a bill to control another unfair business
practice. His naw bill would make it a crime to give
or offer a reward to the agent of another company
for any favor in relation to the affairs of his em-
ployer
Business bribery is a constant-factor in business,
as any experienced businessman knows, and may be
as innocuous as the salesman’s gift cigar or as serious
as a cash payment for buying certain goods. In some
lines of business this so-called commercial bribery
has become a menace to free competition. and in
other Kpes it it not so evident, but exists nevertheless.
Business leaders generally condemn the practice of
commercial bribery, especlally when it graduates from
an occasional cigar or luncheon into weak end excur-
slons, expensive parties, gifts of various kinds, includ-

The White House is taking into consideration the
fact that the far-western area was long represented
by both Justices Sutherland and Van Devanter; the
fact that the important area stretching from the
Pennsylvania line to the Mississippi river has not

fact, that all Roosevelt's pet candidates come from
th, latter area. ■ -- .

proves, if it proves anything) the
basic condtions which hate given it
birth carry within themselves the
dynamic necessity for its triumph
And that triumph, when it comes,
will be so mighty, so irresistible in its
discharge of catabolic energy, that it
will consign to oblivion the last bar-

This is a fair specimen of Mr
Snow’s thinking, although the sen-
tences are longer and more loose-
jointed than he usually writes. What
he says, In effect, is that the Chinese
communists are using ordinary po-
litical tactics to attain for them-
selves the result ordinary politicians
try for—victory for their side
Mr. Snow went into Red China to
meet Red leaders. He has written a
very fine exposition of their philos-

the Red side than on the Chinese

Nanking forces in China as well. Fin-
ally, he leads up to the present war
