It's pictures like “The Kid's Last

movie critic's lives for this newest
adventure of "Crash" Corrigan
"Dusty" King and "Alibi" Terhune is
as easy to take as four dollar-a-pownd

."The Kid's Last Ride" is just about
the biggest bargain weary moviegoers
can find. Filled with rapid-fire pul-
sating action, broad and effective com-
edy and featuring two first rate song
lifts. It is one of the best shows that
you’ll get a chance to see this current
season. “The Range Busters” may
not be the oldest fellows making
western action dramas, but they’re
mighty close to being the best.
“The Kid’s Last Ride" produced by
George W. Weeks for Monogram Pic-
tures. tells an action-filled tale of
three hard riding, joyous buckaroos i
who accept a thankless job of clean-
ing up a prairie mushroom town only
to discover they have Been very neatly
framed. They ride Into trouble and
danger at every turn and are forced
to use their brains, their flats, and
their guns to get themselves out in
one piece. How they succeed makes
for enjoyable and exciting screen en-
tertainment.
This "Rangebuster" trio certainly '
knows its business. These boys can
swing from action to romance to mel-
ody and then to comedy before you can
batt an eye and their growing popu-
larity is easily explained after seeing
"The Kid’s Last Ride.”

New York, N. Y. (AFLWN3L—The
anniverrary of the establishment of
the Workers Education Bureau of Ant-
erica twenty years ago will be fit-
tingly observed here next month. in
announcing the celebration, Thomas
E. Burke, president, Matthew Wall,
chairman, and Spencer Miller, Jr.,
secretary of the Bureau, said:
“The Workers Education Bureau of

Anniversary of its establishment in
April of this year. On April 3, 1921,

"Therefore, when we now learn that
the mighty American productive ca-
pacity. together with the will of the
American labor movement, is going to
throw its full weight into providing
the equipment necessary to win this
battle for freedom, It stimulates us,
heartens our men in the forces and
makes us all feel that we are fighting
ofr a greater thing than our own
country—that we are spending our
energy to win a great victory for
freedom of the soul?'
resistance many employers are still
making to union organization and col-
lective bargaining, this record is in-
deed an achievement.
“The major cause of strikes in in-
cent years has been the effort to gain
union recognition and negotiate a
'irst agreement; it accounts for 63
per cent of all time lost during strikes
movement. But they have not de
stroyed its soul—neither in the coun-
tries which they have conquered nor
even in Germany where there are still
remnants, probably crushed at the mo-
ment but w hose resurrection is as cer-
tain as hat dawn follows night.
“Is it not a glorious task whereon
we are engaged—to destroy tyranny,
to allow the plant of freedom to re-
vie and the soul of man to start
again on its upward course?
“We are adopting in this country
far-reaching measures of organiza-
tion of industry and labor in order
for ourselves not merely to withstand
Hitler’s onslaught but to make the
great offensive which will cause his
destruction.
“We are translating ourselves into
the position of a freely organized
democracy, with each citizen submit-
ting willingly to discipline of a char-
agreement has been signed, the great-
est obstacle on the road to industrial
peace is past for the agreement it-
self provides the means for peaceful
settlement of disputes.
“Today, more than 8.000,000 men
and women are working under union
agreements in the United States.
This is more than twice and possibly
three times the number of union
sized in the current issue of "Labor’s
Monthly Survey," published by the
American Federation of Labor.
“The recent furore over strikes in
defense industries has given the Am-
erican public an utterly false impres-
sion.” the Survey said. “Newspapers
have played up strike stories, often
making it appear that labor was at
fault. They have failed to show why
these strikes occurred; they have ig-
nored the thousands of disputes set-
tled peacefully under union agree-
ments; they have said nothing of the
wholehearted co-operation being given
by hundreds of thousands of union
members in defense production.
“It is time to look at the facts.
“Actually. time lost during strikes
in American industry lasst year was
extremely small. It amounted to less
than two hours per worker employed,
for the entire year; it was scarcely
more than one-third the time lost in
1939. Compared with previous pe-
riols, it was less than in any of the
last twelve years except 1929 and
1930. Wheh we consider the intense

Collective bargaining as a sure
method of developing peace in Indus-
trial relations and the lack of union
agreements as the major element re-
sponsible for the workers withhold-
ing their labor power are empha-
tion. Building trades unions have
made definite sacrifices by reducing
overtime pay and limiting initiation
fees; they have also agreed to a no-
strike policy on defense work. In ad-
dition they have supplied 370,000 men
to defense jobs, often sending skilled
men halfway across the country with-
out charge.
"The railroais, in the last 14 years
under the Railway Labor Act, have
been practically free from strikes.
Many threatened strikes have been
peacefully sealed through the facili-
ties provided by the Act. About 90
per cent of railroad workers today
are under union agreement, the num-
ber of agreements having increased
from 3,021 in 1935 to 1,193 in 1940.”

acter calculated to bring victory
nearer. So you have the remarkable
experience of seeing the British peo-
ple-men and women—not only going
into the forces but also engaged in
fire fighting, watching for incendiary
bombs and saving their homes, while
others are occupied in the great hos-
pital services.”
Emphasizing the herculean efforts
of the British workers and the British
people generally to resist successfully
the tyranny planned by Nazi totali-
tarianism. Mr. Bevin said:
"We feel in our very bones that we
are the bastions of liberty. The words
'they shall not pass’ have greater
meaning than ever before because we
know that we are preserving not only
our own liberty but that of the whole
Commonwealth. Indeed, in saving our-
selves we save every lover of liberty
in the world.
"But it is useless to underestimate
either the power of our enemy or the
tauk we areicalled on to perform. He
has dragooned forces, subjugated mil-
lions of people to his will and cheated
a vast arsnal, utilizing the labor of
a population of nearly 200.000,000
people, many of whom hate him and
would turn their weapons upon him
tomorrow if only the opportunity pre-
sented itself.
"We in this tight little island have
a working population of 17,000,000.
We have to face the output of his
formidable labor force and simullane-
pusly bring goods and raw materials
from overseas. And bravely the mer-
cantile marine of our own and allied
nations are doing it.
“You have only to look at these
figures to understand what encourage-
ment it gives us when we read the
declarations of the great labor move-
metn of America and realize that they 1
see the problem in all its nakedness
as we do and give expression to their 1
great determination to supplement our
production with America s and to re- 1
store balance with the productive ca-
vacity now against us.

deed superior to that of the Germans. 1

lective bargaining and signed con-
tracts predominate as the method for
dealing with joint labor-management
problems.
“This is one reason why strikes are
declining: the second is the patriotic
efforts being made by American Fed-
eration of Labor unions to settle their
controversies without stopping work.
“The union agreement is a consti-
tution for democratic government in
the workshop. Also, it provides a set
of laws or rules under which workers
ani management agree to do business
with each other. Practically every
agreement provides for joint commit-
tees and joint meetings where work-
ers and management can take up
grievances and discuss their prob-
lems; most agreements provide arbi-
tration for problems which cannot be
settled in conferences. The vast ma-
jority of controverts are quickly
settled when workers and manage-
ment thus bring law and order Into
industrial relations, In contrast to the
chao, which so often exists where
there is no organization and no Agree-
ment.

Industries where collective bargain-

extension of collective bargaining .to

part of the democratic process.

A back-to-the-land movement as one

is advocated by Mgr. Luigi G. LIquttI,
secretary of the National Catholic
Rural Life Conference. He cites his
own success with fifty poor families,
mostly miners, in a par sh he recently
left in Granger, Iowa,
Formerly these families lived in
typical mining camps and many had
been on public relief. But they set-
tled on 234 acres in a homestead proj-
ect where they begun to buy co-oper-
atively. "I figured the other day.”
Mgr. Liqutti said “that in the last
