PER COPY The Nevada County Nugget, Wednesday, December 8, 1971 5 ~ The underwriters’ bureau has informed the commission that the "‘carrying persons for a charge” policy exclusion and the . premium burcharges formerly required for ‘‘cartrying fellow employees’’ have been eliminated from the so-called “standard form” for liability insurance pollcles. The commission advised war workers contemplating share expenee transportation to determine if their particular policies fall within this category. A report has heen circulated among war workers that they would be held liable to prosecution as common carriers operating with a certifleate from the Railroad Commitssion if they hauled fellow employees and required them to share the cost. This report is entirety. untrue, the commission announced, The commission stated, however, that it wou'ld not subscribe to exhorbitant charges ‘being exacted by car owners from fellow employces for transporting. them to and from work. MASS PICKETING VIOLATES LAW. COURT RULES By RALPH H. TAYLOR Masx picketinz, where such mass picketing causes persons to fear bodily harm, is illesal, and is hereby prohibited. In effect, that was the vital and sweeping decision of the California State Supreme Court, handed down on February 13, in disposing of a case involving the Yuba Cornty antipicketing ordinance. The far-reaching importance of th» high tribunal's decis’on was nd! re:ed in first news reports of the rnline but attorneys who have s‘udied +h~ opinion state that it will outlaw ané prevent some of the most vicious types of intimidation which have character'zed mass picketing. It ‘s also freely predicted that it foreshadows other decisions, involvinz strike practices, of equally far-reaching significanre, Denying the appeal of Rufus Bell and others who were arrested while engaged in picketing, and who were convicted of violating the Yuha County anti-picketing ordinance, the ‘majority decision of the PCourt said:“This evidence reveals conduct exceeding the bounds of peaceful picketing. Pickets may bring themselves to the notice of persons entering the picketed premises, but may not foredbly stop automobiles and intimidate ‘the occupants by gathering in large ttumbers. Such action ix more than Peaceful persuasion, [t is forceful intimidation and constitutes violence.” Justice Douglas Edmonds, in the concurring opinion, clarified the situation even more, declaring: ' “When pickets patrol the public street which is the approach to their employer's premises and either their number or their conduct is such as to constitute intimidation and put employees or others in fear of bodily harm, they are guilty of unlawful acts. Such picketing goes far beyond that which has been recognized by the courts as a reasonable exercise of the right to tell the facts of a labor dispute and to persuade employees, by peaceful means, to leave their work. “The courts have generally recognized that persuasion in the presence of a large number of persons is not peaceful persuasion, and in one of its decisions the Supreme Court of the United States said that it is the proper function of @ court of equity to prevent the imevitable intimidation of groups of pickets but to al‘tow missionaries. In going to and from work, men have a right to as free pasgage without obstruction as the streets afford, consistent with the right of others to enjoy the same privilege.’ (American. Steel Foundfies vs, TrisCity Central Trades Council, 257 U.S. 184).” That decision, in this writer's opinjon, not only represents a sound interpretation of the law; it also squares with our conception of American liberty. There has never been
any slightest justification for permitting one group of men, no matter what their grievance, to initimidate other men dnd prevent them from following their lawful occupations. ‘And mass picketing as it has been practiced in many sections of California, certainly cannot be construed as anything else but intimidation. California farmers and handlers and processors of farm _ products, who have suffered heavy losses by reason of strikes and labor violence —and who have been forced to endure the jibes, insults and abuse Supreme Court's action in this case. And now it is to be hoped that peace officeys in every city and county fn the state will make {1 their business to see thai the con-t's deeision is promptly and vigorously enforced Ca:ifornia has had far more than its share of vio-ence and intimidation on the picket. tine.

LE 5 “A SHORT RUN TO A LONG RUN IN b THK SNOW” (Continued from Pace Ore) that we had just proved that it was our bnainess by sending ¢.006.000 soldiers to Franse to share ‘tn a “European” war. We aré now retrieving that biunder of twenty years ago by_ raising an army and navy or perhaps six million men, at a cost. presently estimated at 125 billion dollars. Let us try to kee» these facts long enough in, the popular mind not to make the same blunder again when this war is won and done. Nations that make mistakes in world affairs will hereafter face an even more dreadful atonement than the one we are ' making now for refusing the course advised by President W!!son two decades azo. In this war we have not onlv assumed the role of big brother of ‘twenty other American nations. but we also plav the part of wealthy uncle to two thitds of the world’s population. We are the arsenal of the democracies as the President said, and we ave also their chief source of food. When the war is over we shall be obliged to feed those we have hesten to submission. the other third. We wi'l he assisted in this by other New Wor'd nations, bu’ ours will be the lion's shere n° giving -1etenanre to the h:nery. mill‘ons of the war whiped and weary. We have alwave believed tha’ the reason this country refused °~ share in the responsWility of maintaining world peace under the W'! eon formrla. was actually the fear of such men as Senator: Johnson, Borah and Lodge 241° we world he whip-sawed by the diplomats of other big powers ‘n an international legislative -brdy, such as the League of Nations. We were u creditor nation to half the world when the last war ended, but we refused to exert the power thai that position gave us. We had a paramount right ‘o help shape andmaintain world pea‘e, ves, to compel obedience to .a universal common law of nations. but we weretoo timid. We had no rea‘izat’on of our power or our right. { v Let every citizen think hard, when this war is done, ahout our duty as citizens, not only of the United States, but of our world. I: should henceforth be as much our business to see that other nations do not run amuek, as it is to keep one of our own states from rebelling and declaring ‘itself free and independent of the rest. In a very real sense we must learn that we are our brother's keeper and that his color, race and geographical home, do not alter that fact. PETITION FOR APPOINTMENT OF TRUSTEE FOR ESTATE FILED rs.
