"You are all familiar with the fact that in 1885 the old gravity was superseded by the steam locomotive and is today a dream of the past.

The men and women who dreamed that dream was practically unknown i to the farmers through lands the road ran. But to the youtn wno waited at 1 the crossroads for the pioneer to ap pear out of the woods from nowhere and come to a slow stop for him to enter, the dream is imperishable.

Several NRA codes have the names of unions written into them and some provide that whatever collective bar, gaining agreement is arrived at shall be considered part of the code. Some code authorities governing boards on code matters include union men, who can look at the books of the employers and check up on their reports. Child labor has been doomed in industry through its prohibition in all codes. Madame Secretary Helps Secretary of Labor Frances Per kins appeared as a champion of labor when she publicly urged higher wages. shorter hours and better conditions than were provided in the steel code.

Tne NBA has forced the steel and other antiunion industries to withdraw sections of their codes which would have given federal sanction to the company union system. Governor Pinchot of Pennsylvania set a precedent in that great Industrial state by sending militia to protect coal strikers from local officials and armed company police. The NRA completely reversed Its policy when Administrator Johnson. who had previously insisted he couldn't intervene in a labor dispute where the industry wasn't under a code, mediated the Pennsylvania coal strike. Coal companies were made to accept the miners' demand for their own check weighmen and to agree to submit disputes to a federal board.

"snop coommlttees" Formed An amendment to the cotton textile code, the principle of which is applicable to other codes, sets up machinery for collective bargaining in each factory, with provision for appeal to state and national boards. Labor leaders think this virtually opens the door for union organization in each plant. The "shop committee" system of dealing with management may now be established in any unorganized mill. Although the A. F.

of L. has been criticized for failure to make an energetic organization drive, there have been some real gains In union membership.

The American labor movement, crippled by the depres sion, has suddenly become a potentially powerful force it has eained great new strength through the nationa recovery act and through offi cial action and policies com nelled both by the act ana the logic of events. Whether labor's leaders are competent to take advantage of their guaranteed opportuni ties for collective bargaining and union organization re mains to be seen.

But numerous tangible Improve ments in labor's statussince it was formally admitted as a "partner" with government and industry oner an amazing contrast with its position last spring, after years of wage cum ana mounting unemployment. Establishment of a national labor board to settle industrial disputes means that Uncle Sam will see to It that labor receives the collective bar Baininff rights guaranteed by the act. When employers refuse to bargain with employes, the latter can bargain before tne Doara. Jtiara oouea corporations can't Interfere with union organization or force employes into controlled company unions. Already, in ending several simes th board has established collective bargaining under its own supervision, Secret elections are new unaer au t.hnrttv of NRA.

whose representatives can watch to see there is no lnumiaa tton. Summary of Gains Here Is a summary showing some of labor's other gains: The act was based on one of the labor's cherished theories that the first requisite to prosperity is purchasing power, which must be maintained by adequate wages and full employment. Labor for years had urged the shorter working hours, which became a vital part of the new national plan. The NRA set up placed outstanding labor leaders on a labor advisory board on a par with an industrial board and gave them a voice in the final Integration of all Industry's codes of fair competition. Labor has partly put its own house in order since it was compelled to present a united front here.

NBA machinery enabled it to settle the 20 year jurisdictional fight between the Amalgmated clothing workers and the United garment workers an event of great significance. The American Federation of Labor was crowded into reversing its policy against the dual union.
