IS AFFORDED
TORNADO VICTIMS
(By Associated Press)

MELISSA. Texas, April 14.-Citi-
zens of Melissa today set about afford
ing relief to a large number of fam
lilies made homeless yesterday by a
tornado and storm which swept this
little town causing the death of eight
persons and the injury of many more.
Five of the eight dead are negroes.
Five persons are injured possibly
fatally, while more than fifty received
less serious injuries. A number OF
the injured are in hospitals at Nc
Kinney.
The tornado struck the town from
the southwest and cut a swath north.
east, demolishing virtually every build
ing in the business district and razing
many houses.
Fire broke out soon afterward. Rain
made the roads leading to town al
most impossible and the force of the
wind tore down telegraph and tele-
phone wires that resulted in isolation
for some time.

OPEN SHOP POLICY
IS NOT CONSPIRACY
OF EMPLOYERS, CLAIM
(By Associated Press)

NEW YORK, April 14-Denial that
the open shop movement was in any
sense a Conspiracy of employers,
was made today by George w. Sisson,
president of the American pulp and
paper association in addressing the
convention of that organization.
II believe" he said, that the rapid
spread and spontaneous support of the
open shop movement is but a natural
reaction to the extremes Of conduct
and assertions, local and national, of
closed shop unionists. 1t is not in any
sense a conspiracy Of employers, but
flows from an increasingly insistent
and very significant popular demand
for the recognition and restoration of
principles as old as our institutions.
"A labor policy that is economically
unsound cannot long endure, for it
can only result in disaster to the in
dustry which attempts to maintain it.
The final test of labor policy is it's
success in bringing about higher de-
gree Of individual development in the
worker and more general contentment
in industry"
Mr. Sisson declared it was time to
call a halt on the tendency to govern.
ment interference in industry. He
appealed for business men to give con.
structive suggestions to governmental
and Legislative bodies.
