The depression must be over when a group of workers can afford to cast •side a $7,000,000 weekly payroll. At any rate, there should be no need to add diem to dm relief payrolls. A strike is an industrial war be tween labor and capital. It has been rightly said that, economically speak ing, nobody wins a war. This holds true of a strike. The workers lose their wages, the mills lose their pro duction and the public, as usual, foots the bill. Ke lt'S s funny old world. A few years ago the newspapers of the State were cdtirised because they took what some folks thought was too great a hand in politics. Now they are being criticised by those same people be cause they have been more or less "hands off’ in this year’s campaign. i \ \ Hiti Olin D. Johnston, candidate for whether or not he endorses the cotton textile strike, which is cutting $7,000,000 weekly from the national payroll? Mr. John ston has endorsed the American Fed eration of Labor and is the idol of the "mill boys.” The farmers who are being forced to accept low prices for their cotton because of the textile strike can hard ly be expected to be in sympathy with the strikers, but many of them will vote next Tuesday for Olin D.

Frier, president of the State federation of textile workers, told a mass meeting i at Greenville Monday that members would make it dif fer any non-union operator to ! gut g job in 'any textile plant in This isnt the first time union members have discriminat es against their non-union brethren, aa witness the manner in which they force candidates for State offices to boycott non-union printing plants. 1 witnessed a sad affair the other evening. Bert Ashton, whose name aint that, rolled up to the soda shop, tooted his hqrn twice, and when the boy rushes out to see what the folks wanted, Bert said: "116% there, j Steve—fetch me and the dame a cou-1 pie dopes, a box of cigarettes, and charge 'emto- Dad." It was Dad*! car, and Dad's gasoline,% and Dad' use the Graphic Arts Code Eagle inii^oney that he was using. If there their printers' imprint when they pro duce printed matter for others, pro vided that the name of the establish ment appears near the Code Eagle." The editor regrets that the ruling did not go as far as the resolution re quested and substitute the Code Eagle for the union label. However, he is gratified over what has been ac complished as a. result of his effort in behalf of non-union printing plants, an<j the use of the Code Eagle as s part of the imprint on political ad vertising should serve to put a stop t o the boycott of tile' non-union shops.
