SMALL BUSINESS*
Unfortunately, due to clever
propaganda over the past twenty
years, the issue of states rights
has become in the minds of far
too many people somehow en-
tangled with racial questions.
Thus, to many people, anyone
who advocates states rights is
also in favor of freedom to lynch
members offr 1
minority; ;
groups.
* * *
Such, how- ililllr \\ Jit
ever, is not the |
case. I
* * * |
For exam-1
pie, in a recent-
ly completed]
poll of the na-j
tionwide mem- cTwl Harder
her ship of the National Federa-
tion of Independent Business,
73% of the nation’s small busi-
nessmen, east, west, north,
south, voted in favor of legisla-
tion to permit states to regulate
labor disputes.
* * *
This is actually a demand by
the nation’s independent busi-
nessmen for state’s rights in
handling affairs on a local basis.
* * *
For two decades, or more, the
federal government has been in-
volved through the National La-
bor Relations Board in labor dis-
putes regardless of how local,
if somehow it is established the
product made crosses state lines.
* * *
Thus, for example, while the
competitive problems, living
conditions, and every other fac-
tor may be entirely different as
regards a clothes pin factory in
Santa Fe, New Mexico, and one
in Machias, Maine, in rush the
federal boys to lay down the
rules and regulations under
which a labor dispute in either
place will be adjudicated.
* * *
There are some who seem will-
ing at any time to charge the
National Labor Relations Board
(c) National Federation of Independent Business
By^C. WILSON HARDER
ISIjSSS
with harboring the largest group
of communists in the U. S.
* * *
This allegation is probably not
true. Yet, on the other hand, due
to the fact that jobs on this
board would be pretty hard to
hold down year after year if any
member of the agency were un-
der constant attack by the lead-
ers of big labor organizations, it
is reasonable to assume that the
National Labor Relations Board
is not the most objective body
in the nation.
* • *
In every labor dispute, local
conditions and factors are impor-
tant in the overall picture if fair
and equitable settlements are
to be arrived at. For example,
workers in the garment industry
in southern California do not
have the high winter heating
costs, other living costs, of their
opposite members on New York’s
Seventh Avenue.
* * *
Yet a lower labor rate in south-
ern California does not mean
that the factory owners gain
greater profits, because they
have greater freight costs to
reach the nation’s more popu-
lous markets than their opposite
numbers in New York have.
* * *
Thus, throughout the nation,
there are many, many examples,
where a settlement fair in one
area, is not fair in another area.
Yet the National Labor Rela-
tions Board must always be alert
to what the big national labor
leaders think.
* * *
And obviously, the economic
health of a local community is
more vital to the citizens of that
community than anybody from
the outside. Thus, the nation’s
independent businessmen, in a
realistic recognition of this sit-
uation, are asking that handling
of local labor disputes be placed
on a local level. This is actually
a part of what is included in the
often misunderstood term of
states rights.

A MESSAGE FROM R. H. HILLIARD, 'YOUR PHARMACIST'
SELF MEDICATION CAN BE DANGEROUS.
There is no machine invented that is as complex as your
own body. Yet, when something is wrong with their body,
some people attempt to correct it themselves.
CORRECT DIAGNSIS IS NECESSARY TO PROPER
TREATMENT.
It is almost impossible for any untrained person to repair
a modern machine. Only skilled, experienced people are
entrusted with such work. Since your body is ever so much
more difficult to repair, why let anyone who is not an
expert, even yourself, tinker with it?
ONLY A PHYSICIAN HAS THE KNOWLEDGE
AND TRAINING
At the first sign of any illness, let him discover the cause,
instead of depending on home remedies that usually only
give temporary relief.
LET YOUR PHYSICIAN PRESCRIBE PROPER r ’ '
MEDICATION.
From the many medicines in a prescription pharmacy
he will specify the particular one best for you. You will
save much future sickness-time, perhaps even your life,
if you follow this sincere advice.
