OF INTEREST TO LABOR

Seven thousand machine workers at
Bridgeport, Conn.,, dropped their tools
and walked out of various manufac-
turing plants because their wage de-
mands were not acceded to. At mass
meeting after their walkout the ma.
chinists were appealed to by army Of
GERS and a member of their internH-
tional order to return to work. They
voted unanimously, however, to remain
out until the manufacturers have sub
mitted to them written pledge that
any decision made by the war labor
board, now the judge of the contro-
versy, will be adhered to by the enl-
ployers, and that any wage award will
be retroactive to May l. The strikers
spent their idle time soliciting pur-
chases of War Savings stamps.
That about rs members Of the In
ternational Typographical union
throughout the United States and Cam
ada have been killed in France or died
in military camps, is the statement Of
President Marsden G. Scott of the or
ganization, in q letter sent to subordi-
nate unions. Mortuary benefits amounts
ing to $22,350 have been paid their
relatives, and $354,000 was paid out
by the organization to 1900 old age
pensioners in 1917, according to the
letter.
Plans for an international labor con-
ference on the Mexican border within
the next three months, at which a Pan
American federation Of labor will be
organized, were made at meeting Of

One of the most beautiful hedges Is

our patriotic colors. While the vivid
blue of the agcrntum and the flaming
scarlet of the SALIVA would be anything
but n pleasing note II planted next

ors until the effect is n thing of beau

Zinnias, callIopsis and white phlox
Is another effective combination for
hedges or mass planting. Plant the
Zinnins In the back row, then the cal
llopsis and let white phlox form the
border.
RiCinus makes n splendid plant for
hedges. II grows Ia the height of sew
on or eight feet, with huge coppcry
leaves. This plant Is also effective as
II screen or used In the center of cir
cular beds, where It's rich tropical fol-
lage If combined with harmonious
plants Is n thing of beauty.
The seed Is tender and should not

hedges use nasturtiums, zinnlas or call
