men say they see the futilty of wag-
ing a f giIt, as the understanding be-

leaders means that the legislation just

a whoop. In fact, the weekly news

appl es to Tie Kentucky Assoc;at OIL
Of Tobacco Growers follows:
Labor. fraternal, agricultural or
consumers organizat ons shall rot be
held or construed to be Illegal COM

According TO a Kentuck:an promi-
nent i'm Official life is simply de-
claratory and freely res.at.s the law
as It already is.
Just as soon, however, said he,
"as one of these organizations over
sters one of the provisions of the an
THRUST laiws it will be subject to
prosecution, conviction and sentence
and the generalization which is to be
written into the new law will not be
worth the paper it is written on"

BUNCOED.

Yes, that, IS the word used by
Representative r. Y. Thomas in des-
cribing the treatment accorded or
gained labor and farmers unions
by the Democratic House If Represer
tatives at Washington. Now. Mr..
Thomas IS not Republican Congress
man from Main or Colorado, but Il
Democrat from an adjoining county,
and a Candidate for reelection in the
third Kentucky district. For years
labor has striven to get an amendment
TO the Sherman antitrust law eX-
emptin1 organized labor from prose-
curcn for trying to protect itself
against the heartless greed of gold.
After all the efforts and promises the
House has passed some, ming which
is meaningless and which may break
up every labor organization and to-
bacco pool in the country. They llik-
ed for bread and were given a stone.
In the language of Mr.. Thomas they
We're "bupcoed." However that is
not the only bit Of buncoing which has
been done under the present admins
.ration, and Mr.. Thomas has been
helping along DIN much of it. The
people have been 'ibunc;ah" by the
Underwood tariff law. They have
been 'buncoed" i'm this currency and
reg. onal bank" business, and they
are about to be ''buncoed" on the
antitrust legislation. We do not know
that word would fit the mess
which the Secretary of State has
gotten us into in our fore gn relations
and the Mexican tangle or not. Mr..
Thomas. or someone else, may have

President Says Conditions Are

The other day the officers of the

employees and total investment OF
something short of "a billion ollars.
They also told the President that
business is hesitating," the unem-

Trees Help Public Health.
From the Kansas City Star.

From the kansas City Star.
Men and animals a good reasons for
their fondness for trees. 1t is not only
because the trees add SO much to the
Effectiveness of rivers and lakes and even
of the seashore depends largely upon the
trees that we look upon them as silent
friends. They help us in a more material
way than with their beauty, great as that
help may be. They add to our physical
comfort and to our health.
The side of the street having the most
trees is the popular side In summer. That
is because 1t is the coolest by about 20 de-
grees, Mr.. Farwell tells us, for "a full
grown trees sends out 1877 gallons of wa
ter through its leaves into the air." Shad-
Ing the ground also serves to moderate
more pure. 1.-The foliage takes in car
bonic acid gas, which Is poisonous to us,
and gives out oxygen, which is healthful,
indeed, Indispensable to u.s." Medical au-
thorities recognize that trees promote the
healthfulness of a community.
The tempering effect Of trees on the
climate Is not confined to summer. In
winter they actually radiate heat, In addi-
ton to their benefits as windbreaks when
planted in clumps and groves.
That 1t pays to have trees IN the town
and city and on the farmstead is shown
by the fact hat real estate on shaded
streets and that on which trees are grow.
ing sells for a better price. No little of
the welfare and prosperity Of town, city
or country depends upon its trees, and
there Is a direct connection between the
attractiveness of the village or of the
home on the farm, and the love of the
citizens for their village or of the chill
dren on the farm for their home
