CANADA TO HAVE
One BIC UNION
Convention at Calgary Of Inter-
provincial Labor Demands
Six-Hour Day..

An lnterprovincial labor conference
was held last week at Calgary, AL
oerta, to organize "One-Big-Union."
ana TO break away from the interna.
tlonal trade unions and the American
Federation of Labor It is said that
every delegate present at the confer
ence voted to break away from the
reg ular labor movement subject to
referendum vote of the membership.
"A new organization was formed to
pe known as THE One Big Union"
central committee" of five was an
pointed to conduct propaganda work
It's work will be Supplemented hv
provincial committees in each of tho
provinces. An appeal was made to
central bodies to levy a tax of two
cents on each member for organization
purposes.
Strong opposition to delegates going
on record as favoring the six-honr
working day until the question was
1lrst submitted to the respective inter-
national unions and other orga nized
bodies was offered by Dave Rees, the
Vlce-president of the Trades Congress-
OF Canada, and Others Eventually.
however, the resolution was carried bv
an overwhelming majority.
The resolution points out that the
termination of the war in Europe will
1lnally release approximately 5O.OOO,-
oOo men for service in industrial
1lelds, and that the workers of the
world engaged in productive occupa-
tlons during the period of hostilities
nave produced sufficient food, clothing
and other necessities of life for the
people of the world. For these rea-
sons the convention assembled went
on record as demanding a six-hour
day of five days week, to come into
effect June L. - -
1t was made clear in the discssion
centerng around the resolution that
it was not intended as a "cure for all
Ills" or that the millennium would ar
rive if it were adopted. 1t was merely
an ameliorative measure so that the
workers might be able to receive half
loaf of bread"
The recommends of a commit
tee in connection with soviet control
was considered. and the following re-
solution in that regard adopted with
loud cheering: "Whereas. holding the
belief in the ultimate supremacy of
the working class in matters econ
omic, and political, and that the light
of modern developments have proved
that. the legitimate aspirations of the
Labor movement are repeatedly OBJ
by the existing political forms,
clearly showing the capitalistic nature
of the parliamentary machinery, this
convention expresses it's open convic-
ton that the system of industrial
soviet control by selection of represent
tatives from industries is more eff
cient and of greater political value
than the present form of government.
A resolution favoring the forma-
ton of joint committees from SOL
diers' organizations and central bodies
and declarations Of Labor was also
passed. with viewto eliminating the
misunderstanding as to the aims. and
ideals of soldiers and other workers.

The Mobile Register he was ten

he held for many years to the salts
faction of the department and to the
credit of HIMSELF; but he loved

first love. The Journal congratu-
lates the News on securing the pen
of so distinguished a writer, and
heartily welcomes Mr. Harris back
into Alabama journalism, which he
is sure to adorn and give to it

Reinvest Your Bond Interest in
w. s. s.

Formal Request Made by Treas
ury Department in Announcing
Coupon Day.
Invest the interest on your patri-
otism in patriotism. This was the
request by lhe Treasury Department
directed to holders of bonds of the
Third Liberty Loan. Saturday
March Is, is int crest day" for the
owners of the Third Liberty Loan
! bonds. and the Treasury Depart
ment Is anxious to secure the rein
vestment of the interest paid to
coupon holders in government secur-
tiles.
Bond interest coupons virtually
are the same as cash. Holders may
have them redeemed at any bank.
but the best place to take them Is
to the postOflice, where the post
master will exchange War Savings
and Thrift Stamps for the coupons.
Buyers of Liberty Bonds should
have forgotten, and should still for
get that they have made these in
vestments in 80 far as present in
terest IL concerned. They should
not take a dollar away from Uncle
Sam when he needs it so badly
Buy War Savings Stamps and COM
pound your interest for the good
days that are to come.
The owners of war bonds issued
to date are being paid approximate
ly $935 900, year from the Treas
ury as interest on the money they
loaned the government.
These interest payments repre-
sent free money which is available
for immediate reinvestment. AS
interest coupons it represents cash
and is earning nothing. Reinvested
in government securities it becomes
interest bearing. The money earned
again becomes money-earning.
The PostOffice Department has
ruled that Liberty Bond interest
coupons may be accepted as cash |
at all postoflices in the country for
the purchase of Thrift Stamps and
War Savings Stamps. 1t is ex-
pected that a large percentage of the
interest earned by Liberty Bonds
will be Immediately turned into
War Savings Stamps to earn fur
ther interest.

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot B
Cured

Cured
by local applications. as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure catarrh-
al deafness, and that is by constitu-
tional remedy. Catarrh al Deafness is
caused by an infiamed condition of
the mucous lining of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube is infiamed
you have rumbIing sound or i'm
perfect hearing. and when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result.
Unless the Inflammation can be re-
duced and this tube restored to its
normf conditions, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever. Many cases of deaf
ness are caused by catarrh, which is
an Inflamed condition of the mucous
surfaces. Halls Catarrh Medicine
acts through the blood on the mucous
surfaces of the system.
We will give One HuNdred Dollars
for any case of Catarrhal Deafness
that cannot be cured by Hall's Ca
tarrh Medicine. Circulars free. All
