SAYS SPIRIT is UNBRoKEN
Gompers Urges Labor to Resist All
WAGE Reductions.

The spirit and organization OF
American workers are unbroken by
the present business depression and
they will continue to push forward
and onward, Samuel Gompers de-
clared in an address at Atlantic City,
y. j., Monday before a conference of
labor leaders. This was the first of n
series of similar conferences to be held
throughout the United States with a
view to bringing about complete unity
and solidarity among the wage earn
ers."
Mr.. Gompers, describing the, effect
Of the periods of depression on labor,
said that while the organized labor
movement was partially checked it
was never driven back TO the condi-
ton existing before the depression.
Calling upon the workers to resist
wage reduction, Mr.. Gompers said:
Whatever a reduction in wages has
been accepted by employees it has been
followed by another and then another"

md the man the government would

and the man the government would
aid.
This is the situation the Cleanup
Squad would remedy. Briefly, the
pan is this. A squad of experts,
familiar with every detail of war in
surance, the vocational education pro-
visions, monetary compensation, medi-
cal treatment, disqualification, is sent
out to scour the country for men en-
titled to aid BY getting in personal
touch with the men, these experts can
file their claims properly and can oil
the governmental machinery so that all
claims filed will be promptly and salts
factorily settled. Instead Of the mer
having to seek out the governmental
bureaus, these same bureaus, through
the Clean-Up Squad, seek out the men.
In this connection, it is vitally i'm
portant that anyone in any community
in which the squad is operating, who
knows of a man who is entitled to aid
or who may be entitled to aid, to fur
nish members of the squad with his
name and address, so that nc may be
found and satisfied.
Through this means, the Clean-Up
Squad can accomplish the one pur-
pose that actuates its activities. 1t
can clean up.

lima.
G.. Hayward MahOn, Jr., State Com
mander, and w. r. Watkins, State Ad-
jutant, have prepared an interesting

can Legion has grown to large propor-
tions in South Carolina under the
leadership of Maj. Mahon.
Many important subjects are to be
discussed at the convention. The
principal work new before the organi-
zation of ex-service men is to provide

that "in event reductions in forces in

Vets to Hold Jobs.

Vigorous protests from the national
legislative committee of the American
Legion against the dismissal of ex-
service men from their government po-
sitions have resulted in an order from
Secretary Weeks that no honorably
discharged soldiers or sailors or the
widows or orphans Of World war vete-
rams shall be discharged from the civil
service so long as their records are
good and their ability and efficiency is
adequate for the positions they fill.

Aid for Service Men.
No more important work in behalf
of the men who served in the armed
forces of the United States during the
World War; has been undertaken than
the campaign of the Cleanup Squad
of government agencies, the Red Cross
and the American Legion, which be-
gins in Rock Hill on October 18th. The
squad will be in Rock Hill to furnish
information and aid to men from the
counties of Chester, York and Lancas-
ter.
Practically as soon as the a istice
was signed, the various government
bureaus began activity in settling the
thousands of war claims of men Who
were in the service. A tremendous
amount of work was accomplished, but
still there are hundreds upon hundreds
of eX-seryice men, entitled to the va
rious forms of governmental aid who
have either filed claims for this assist
ance that the government is glad to
give, or whose claims have never been
satisfied because the business had to
be done through lengthy, red taped,
patience destroying correspondence,
alike unsatisfactory to the government

Weeks, in his let ter to Governor Riggs stated: Tt is my opinion that these camps are vital asset in the broad scheme of national defense because they ad- vance the upbuilding of the Nation al Guard and the Organized Re serves.

He urges that children be definitely in structed as to the sin and futility of taking ones own life.
 The Saye-a-Life League was found ed a few years ago to cope with the suicide problem. It offers the chance Of encouragement, Dr. Warren says, to persons in mental anguish who may be tottering on the brink of self destruction.
 Dr. Warren has three methods which he says are 6f value in reach. ing individual cases1 of world weary persons. One is spiritual counsel another calm reasoning, and the third timely financial assistance.
