are "tornadoes," which arg whlrllng
storms of great violence, but contract.
Ied In area. Tornadoes have been
known whose greatest width did nor
exceed few rods, and those which
Exceed several miles in width are very
unusual. The ordinary storm. where
the wind attains a velocity of 30 to 60
miles an hour, has nothing in common
with either a cyclone or tornado. II

Origins Of Military Titles.
Commodore and commander are
forms borrowed and corrupted from
the Spanish comendador, knight, q
commander, or the superior of mon.
astery. The French have the woro
commander, the Italian comandatOre.
Commandant. however, meaning the
officer Of fortified towns garrison,
ETC., comes from the medieval Latin
commentator, a commander. and COM
mandare, to command.

Postal Clerks Talk
OfNahonaI Strike
VIII Be Voted On at
Convention if Congress
Fails to Act Meanwhile

A national strike Of 100000 postof1icc
workers is threatened if Congress
fails to act on demands of the postoffice
clerks for higher wages and improved
working conditions.
Abe Grcenbaum, secretary Of the
New York Postoffice Clerks Union. said
yesterday that resolution presented
by representative Of the postonice
clerks of the Grand Central Station
Postofficc, favoring a national strike Of
postoftice clerks and other workers., had
been introduced at the last meeting of
the union, but it had been decided to
leave the matter to the national con-
ventioR of the postoffice clerks at
Washington, D. c., OF Labor Day.
In the mean time the postofficc clerks
will petition Congress to remedy their
grievances.
"The national strike resolution pre-
sented at the last meeting of the local
unlon," said Secretary Greenbaum, sis
generally favored, but according to our
constitution we must first appeal to
Congress. Under the present rules a
national strike is unconstitutional, but
our national convention on Labor Day
will change the rules and vote a ma
tlonal strike IT our appeals O Congress
fail
"The national strike resolution which
was presented to the New York post
office clerks for action favored the
carrying out of the national strike
resolution of the Nebraska State Post
Office Clerks Federation.
mot only the adjustment of the
grievances concerning wage demands
are demanded, but also grievances con-
corning supervisorship by men against
whom the clerks have grievances.
The national convention which will
act on the national strike question in
case Congress does not bring about
peace with the postoffice clerks will
represent 24,00O members of the ma
tional organization Of the postoficc
clerks. But in case of national strike
1t is estimated that 100000 postoffico
workers at least will go out"
