To produce a large vol-
ume of milk and main-
tain body weight and

.j, 'UtQ _ balanced ration —
TEXO DAIRY RATION has always been
such a feed ... however, we found by test that

more efficient . .
Just try it on your herd ... weigh the feed,
weigh the milk and compare the results . . .
You will find that TEXO DAIRY RATION
helps “step-up” production and keep your

DICTATORSHIP
IN AMERICA j
L_ By George Peck.mJSfM^m
By the time this appears in print
the coal strike may be over. I sin-
cerely hope so. Every day of the
strike the miners are losing ap-
proximately five million dollars in
wages; the nation’s stock-pile
of coal was below normal when
the strike started; production of
badly needed goods is being cur-
tailed or halted; and millions of
workers in manufacturing, trans-
portation and distribution indus-
tries are losing or will lose work-
ing time and wages.
And why this menace to the na-
tion’s entire economy? It can be
laid on the doorstep of one man—
John L. Lewis, president of the
United Mine Workers. He called
the strike out despite the fact that
the operators offered the miners an
additional wage increase of 18 Vz
cens ah hour and a shorter work
day—more pay for an 8-hour day
than the miners were receiving
for a 9 hour day.
And why did Lewis do this? Be-
cause the coal producters refused
to him a royalty of ten cents on
each ton of coal mined, of between
$56 tnd $60 million per year, o
constitute a so-called “wellfare”
fund to be used by Lewis for
rather indefinite purposes.
Mr. Lewis and his various un-
ions have been collecting between
$8 and $10 million a year in dues
for many years and have very
large cash reserves at the present
time.
As far as I have been able to
discover, practically nothing has!
been spent by the Union for any
w elf are purposes; no relief or
strike benefits have been paid out
by the Uniion; and there is little
likelihood that any of the funds
in their treasury will be paid out
as strike benefits to the striking
men during this current strike.
It is common knowledge that
millions of dollars were used from
the miners’ funds to organize the
CIO; and that large amounts were
used for poliical contributions.
The public has every reason to
fear that Lewis wishes to grab
this extra $50 to $60 million a
year, in order to further or extend
his power in State and National
government affairs.
But don’t blame John Lewis be-
cause he has this power over the
lives of all of us. He gets this
power by virtue of the Wagner
and Norris-LaGuardia Acts; and
i the Supreme Court’s construction
of the Clayton and Sherman Anti-
Trust Acts, in exempting labor
unions from the anti-trust laws,
which makes possible the creation
of monopolies and combinations
of labor and its leaders.
This has brought national bar-
gaining in the coal industry to the
point where employees and em-
ployers of any given mine or com-
pany have no power to negotiate
their own contracts and working
conditions — where approximately
ten thousand employers have no
voice in dealing with their own
employees, and hundred of thou-
sands of industrious and patriotic
employees in the coal industry
are in the slave position of being
told when to work and when to
be idle.
