One On Bryan

Former Secretary of State Bryan's
habit of attending to his own telephon-
ing when communicating with Washing
ton newspaper offices once came near
costing a job to a new Office boy in the
Washington bureau of the Associated
Press. The secretary had called the
Washington bureau on the telephone
from his home to inquire about a news
story.
Hello. Is this the Associated Press
officer" inquired Bryan.
YES" replied the boy.
Il would like to speak to Mr.. Epps, if
he is on the desk in charge" said Bryan.
who is this, please!" politely asked
the boy.
This is Secretary Bryan talking was
the reply.
Don't you try to kid me, You big
boob" cried the office boy. Tell me
who you are or I'll hang up"
The boy, believing some copy runners
from one of the newspaper offices were
playing joke on him, was about to
hang up the receiver when an indignant
voice came over the wire:
TO whom am L speaking?' rasped
the voice of the premier over the wire.
You are speaking to President VIII
son, you rummy. VIII" did you expect
Don't think you can fool me- yelled the
thoroughly aroused office boy, hanging
up the receiver.
Five minutes later the manager of the
Washington bureau OF the Associated
Press was explaining to the secretary OF
state that no one in the Associated
Press office would be so impolite to a
member of the cabinet as the secretary
had declared. He suggested that the
telephone central had made mistake
and switched Mr.. Bryan to one of the
telephones in one OF the downtown sa-
looms where some drunken roysterer had
mistaken the secretary OF state for a
joker

The trade union movement is one OF
the strong elements in industrial life that
is continuously promotive OF good times:
We will not permit any reduction OF
wages, even tho industry is slack, for
the reason that every wage reduction
is followed by falling off OF the power
OF consumption and consequently must
accentuate the depression rather than
help remove it.
