FRIDAY, JULY 30, 1937 BIG STORES STAY OPEN WHILE SM&LL ONES CLOSE We- have been interested in n controversy going on in Dayton between one o f the newspapers in tha t city and certain stores tha t have adopted a policy o f closing their stores all day Monday rather than th e usual Wednesday half-day holi­ day. The claim is made by the newspaper tha t store closing is injurious to business in general and for tha t reason opposes the Monday closing plan. The stores answer tha t Monday is a poor business day and by closing the clerks have a two day holiday counting the Sunday. A ll clerks are paid as if the stores were open, so no wage or salaries are reduced. In other cities and even smaller towns th e general rule of Wednesday ha lf holiday closing is observed. In the larger cities there was a time when Saturday closing was a fashion for the summer months but the recent social security law s have p laced such a burden on department stores,, tha t even a ha lf holiday is not taken during the summer with- some stores. W e observed tha t even in a city the size o f Detroit, the fourth largest city in the country, tha t most all down town stores are open Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday nights. Men­ tion o f siich a plan in Dayton w6uld bring out the statement that “the, horse and buggy days are here again.” Detroit merchants say tha t more than a hundred thousand persons labor a t night under the eight-hour plan where concerns keep going twenty-four hours each day and if stores did not open at n igh t/ these laborers would have a very limited time for shopping. We noticed tha t one department store would have the ladies> coat and fur department open at night for shoppers. It is certain that as social security taxes increase all busi­ ness fa c e new problems. .Some merchants where a large number o f clerks are employed say it is either longer shopping hours, lower wages for clerks or added cost o f all merchandise to buyers. It was only a few years ago tha t labor would not hesitate at even tw elve hours a day, it was anything then for a job. Now we hear much o f the thirty-hour week, fixed We were amused to read some dayq- ago that eoal operators in Harlen county, Ky., had resorted to hiring women of questionable character to give what is known as the “New peal Strip-Tease” dance on days or nights when there was to be a meeting of members of the coal miners union in that section. The charge is made by union leaders who say the men would rather attend one of these famous dances than sit in a meeting and hear plans revealed how higher pay can be pulled from the coal com- paiy bank account. The union leaders say this is a violation of t1 ; Wagner labor law, if so then wliat about the charge of the picture, show interests and the burlesque houses in the large cities that opposed the New Deal strip-tease shows to give the girls in birthday clothes' a job. The theatrical interests protested such shows as injurious to their patronage. The Roosevelt show management continued the exhibition just the same and the managers of burlesque houses that “met competition” with the same kind of dances in New York City had their licenses cancelled. If the coal companies set up the claim that they jvere but giving the. girls employment, under the New Deal code of morals,' the unions have no case in or out of court.

Labor being a co n -1 sumer is never an advocate o f higher, priced food or clothing than any other class o f citizens.

WHERE ARE THE NEW DEAL SUPPORTERS NOW? ■ Some o f our Democratic editorial writer friends are certainly enjoying themselves writing about the weather, the abundant crops, the birds, the bees and the approach of the hay fev er season. A ll seem to be unmindful of the fac t that important developments have been taking place down in Wash­ ington in New Deal quarters. For months hardly an issue was missed when almost every little detail of the' new brand o f . ...Communism.' was not commented upon favorably. Our new born king, FDR, in purple robe and scepter in hand, w jlth John L. Lewis, Haywood Broun, Donald Richberg, Hugh John­ son, court attendants and messengers a t the right of the throne, and the Frankferters, the “ Inskeys,” the Cohens and the brain- trusters, as advisors on the left, a Communistic dictatorship was se t to direct, to bluff and conjole a free people. Nowadays with the heated season at hand these same editorial writers seem unmindful o f tha t little bit o f treason plotted and practiced against th e King by John L. Garner which brought about de­ fe a t o f th e court packing bill when the communists would direct a ll court verdicts. These same writers have also overlooked the income tax evasion charge against “Mamma” Roosevelt, Who secured a special dispensation from the higher powers, tha t permitted her to escape payment o f a huge chunk as income tax* something not yet accorded anyone other than members o f the King’s family.

A recent marriage in his family prompt­ ed him to write “The Father of. the Groom” and later this called for “The Father of the Bride.” Mr. Guest has been -connected with the Free Press for many years. Needless to say there were many other interesting talks by members of the newspaper profession during the convention. The members of the NEA were guests of the Ford Motor Co- and guests at lunch at Dearborn Inn, fol­ lowed by a trip through Greenfield Village, one of the most noted spots in the world, erected by Mr. Ford as a tribute to Thomas A.

Vice President Kundscn responded to a toast in relating some experiences his company had been having despite the fact they had once accepted labor’s demands and yet have had more than 200 ■ strikes in recent weeks.

VOLKERT Dentist In Bank Building OPENING AUGUST 2, 1937 THIS FLAT WORLD had been two branches of the Nebras­ ka legislature .we would n< t be faced with the demand for more state avenue," said the publisher. Wilbur Glenn Voliva, who all along has insisted that the world is flat and saucer-shaped, now insists that the North Pole expedition o f the Russian flyers proves his contention. He may be right, though we don’t believe it, but we’re sure he w ill stir up a mess of trouble for his theories by saying there is no South Pole, and tha t if the Russians claim to fly around it they w ill be fakers. But doesn’t the Zion City leader g ive any credence to the stories o f Admiral Byrd and ,h is comrades o f Little America? Perhaps Voliva will have an explanation for that story, too. H e has disregarded every scientific discovery and every rule o f reason in trying to maintain his untenable notions. I f fliers and world-encirclers merely go around the rim o f the saucer w e wonder tha t they do not fa ll off the edge upon the table o f th e universe* or into an immense void. v -O h io State Journal, VICE PRESIDENT HALTERS HIS SUPERIOR The defea t administered Franklin Roosevelt by his own political party, on h is plan to control the Supreme Court, is the first tim e since entering the White House th a t his word has not been supreme. The vote in the Senate being 70 to 20 certainly indicates the Democratic leaders have sickened over th e Roosevelt Communistic legislation tha t is now in force and administered by appointed boards that' are not even under Democratic control. Vice President John N. Garner gets all the credit for defea ting Roosevelt plans. The two broke some w eeks ago over administration plans which the Vice President.! Wc had the pleasure of attending the-annual convention of the National1 Editorial Association in Detroit, Mich., last week. I t was the - fifty-second ' event in the history of the newspaper, profession. I t was truly more than ; a convention—we might say a chnu- ’ tnuqua—for the program was full of, interesting speakers on instructive topics. Some of the highlights on the program were: H, G. Wc'aver from the General Motors Corp; James G. Stahlman, Nashville, Tenn., "Banner,” who talked .on “A Free Press the Right of a Free People.” E. H. Me- Raynolds, President of Advertising Federation of America and Vice President of Missouri Pacific Railway, St, Louis. The Billy Sunday of the convention was none other than DeLoss Walker, ditor of Liberty Magazine, once a Methodist minister. His sermon was “What Keeps the- Press Free?” And what n sermon? He did not leave a vestage of the Communistic garment that .shrouds the administration down in Washington. Liquor and free j did not consider proper, le t alone Democratic.
