informed direct from “Washington
that the navy desires such a bill, we
will vote for it.
Similar alien fish bills have been}
introduced at previous sessions of
the legislature and prior to this year!
they have been known as ‘“‘cinch.,

house
Friday attempting to clear up. the
icalendar which now has some four
hyndred. bills listed for considera“pand testimony has been given that the flag waving was more or lesS ion. The budget bill, which was last
‘week temporarily sidetracked may
come up before the lower house this
week. The question now is whether
we are going to do a good job om the
budget in the lower house or send
it over to the senate. with 41 votes
and let them take the full responsibility. The writer feels that in taking the $73,000,000 relief item, as
well as. two other proposed appro‘. priation items, the compulsory health
insurance and a half million dollars
for a new type of hospital for mildly
insane persons, which is still in the
experimental stage, out of the budget, if we do. nothing more we of the
lower house have done our part in
trying to assist the taxpayers. And
just in case you do not kn it, it
has been estimated that the compulisory health insurance program would
cost the employers and employees
of the state about $80,000,000 a year
in payroll taxes. Think this over. Mr.
Businessman and taxpayers.
And just a last line. At the public hearing of the proposed compulsory health insurance bill held
last Tuesday night in the assembly
chambers, a spokesman for the NonPartisan League representing the
CIO union offered an amendment to
the bill providing that instead of t
employer and the employee each paying a one per cent tax, that the employee pay a one-half per cent tax.
In presenting the amendment the
suokesman told the committee that
business could pass the extra tax on
to the consumer. Just another hidden tax and once again Mr. and Mrs.
General Public would be the goat.
That statement alone ought to be sufficient to defeat usch a bill.

silver top hat, cane and gloves depicted on them,
The grand ‘ ‘march ‘was led by

CALIFORNIA HAS
549 STRIKES IN
LAST DECADE
BERKELEY, April 24.— California ;
is one of twelve states that has no
statutery provision for the mediation
or abritration of labor disputes, despite the fact that it had 594 strikes,
involving 290,353 workers
ten year period 1927-36 inclusive.
The state had a Staite Board of Arbitration and Conciliation at one
time, being created in 1891 as a
three man commission appointed by
the governor. But it. heard almost
no cases at all, and the organic act
was finally repealed in 1921.
These facts are stated in a special
study on government mediation and
arbitration in industrial disputes
made at the request of members of
the present state legislature by the
Bureau of Public Administration of
the University of California. The
study not only goes into the efforts
in the
__MOND Y, / APRIL 24, 1 1939.
of state gowstitineiif. to bring indus. trial peace through médiation « or arbitration but details the functioning
of he federal government in this
regard as ‘well. In the latter activity
it shows that. the government conciliatiof’ services intervened in some
17,000 disputes, involving approximately 16,000,000 workers in the
. 25-year period 1913-1937, inclusive.
The study notes that twenty four
states have ‘provision for compulsory
investigation of labor disputes, with
or without consent of the parties, inoived. This power, however, has
very seldom been enforced, as it exists essentially as ia ‘threat to use‘the
pressure of public opinion according
to the study. Colorado’s compulsory ma
investigation law contains the most ~~
severe element of “compulsion,”
since it forbids strikes or tockouts
pending investigation and recomnendations.
