e ‘ } eer Se ae Oe ee et ee een mnee yer rT NEVADA CITY NUGGET PES ee Ae et ainasimanmmmiaeiaad FRIDAY, OCTOBER . , 1937. * By RALPH. H. TAYLOR What about “the march inland’? ‘Have ambitious labor leaders and radical agitators given up their dream of empire, insofar as the farming ‘industry is concerned, or is this the lu]! before the storm? California agriculture, for most part; has enjoyed a fairly peace“ful harvest season thus far this year —ecomparéd, at least, with the omin-= ous prospects at ‘the start of the season. ) But farmers ‘can ill’ afford to be Julled into’a false sense of security. “The ‘Stockton cannery war, early in the year, was a violent testimonial to the fact 'that/‘‘it can Mappen here.” And there favebeen sporadic outfreaks in other areas, with much greater tension in the processing and ‘packing, establishments of the state * (which are inseparably linked ‘to agriculture’s welfare) than newspaper reports have indicated. There have been several vital factors in preventing more serious labor difficulties in farming districts. First, farmers, through tieir ‘organthe izations, took positive and intelligent action to forestall trouble, to eldminate causes for complaint, to demonstrate <heir good faith ‘to their icak trouble-makers that agriculture vould not tolerate the terrorism “of . “beef-squads” and hired gangsters, intent on brow-beating workers and employers alike. But lest farmers . dGuickly conclude ihat tne crisis is past.it should also be noted that the real ericis failed to materalize, due largely to.the fact that labor fire-: brands had their hands full cin the urban. areas, due to the death-strusgele which developed between the C I. Oy and the A. F. of L. Rut wat the labor’s aims for the future. as they bear on California agriculture? inquiry is supplied by statements: of leaders in attendance at the recent eonvention of the State Federation of Labor in Long Beach. Walter Cowan and Fred West, two San Francisco laborites who have played an active part in attempts of th A. F. of L. to organize California farm.workers came ‘out frankly against the old system of issuing enarters to*individual farm unions and advocated “one big union” for all agricultural labor. The state federation, they declared, will take the lead in furthering a national agricultural workers’ union. : Mr. West declared he proposed ‘to. ask for 50 organizers to ‘hand together field workers” in California’ under the A. F. of L. banner. “There are 180,000 farm workers and 80,000 cannery workers in tie potential California field,” said Mr. West. “Only the cannery people under eon‘tracts through the A.

But we have organized only about 10,000 field workers.” Foreshadowing a clash with the C.1.-O; for attempted control of California farm labor, Organizer West reported somewhat bitterly:

O. has 19 organizers fornia and is spending $5000 a month on the drive.” When the C. I. O. can spend $5000 per monta to ‘attempt to stampede farm labor into. its ranks—and when the A. F. of L. plans to put an even ‘lmore expensive and expansive progzgam—tri should be a warning to farmers that the battle to protect their industry from exploitation at the ‘ands of professional organizers is still far from won. But even more significant is this paragraph from a news story in the pro-labor San Francisco News during the state federation’s convention: “Mr. West ‘banks on teamster support toswing the tide in the A. F. of LAC. I. O. struggle for farm workers. He believes the fact that teamsters can stop deliveries of fruits and vegetables from the great valleys would enable a teamster-supported farm union to win statewide agreements.” In short, it is planned to cripple agriculture, without regard ‘to the rights of farmers or consumers, or the public at large—just as warring unions have destroyed trade and paralyzed business in San Francisco until ‘the bay city is being shunned by legitimate ‘ndustry’and blacklisted because of its constant and costly labor disputes. Eternal vigilance is still the price of liberty. And agriculture cannot afford to be caught napping. NevadaCity Sanitarium Elizabeth McD. Watson, Prop.
