Hold a Fine Meeting-New
Members
By Grant King


Carpenters Local Union No. 637
held an enthusiastic meeting last
Thursday night. Two new members
were taken into the organization.
Erwin Shaller was installed as trus-
tee Quite lot of business was
transacted, and much discussion was
held on various matters pertaining to
the good of organized labor in general.
Brother Arnold Bill, secretary of
the state council of carpenters, was
present and delivered a splendid talk
which was listened to with much in
terest by all present. Brother Bill
was in the city making arrangements
for the state convention of carpent-
ers, which will be held in this city in
September He stated in his talk that
Ohio is in the fight against the Amer
lean" plan as compared with the work
being done in other states. He also
stated that Hamilton is in far better
shape industrially than the average
city throughout the country where he
has visited
Brother Bill is at least one booster
for Hamilton, so let's quit knocking,
boost and do the best we can.

HOUSE CHEERS
When Colleague Grills Our
Old Friend, "Bleating"
BlantOn

Washington.-Con Blanton
of Texas, was grilled to brown turn
by Congressman Black, of the same
state. The latter exposed Blanton's
support of many items in the Ford
ney tariff bill, and then voting against
the bill as a whole, while having Tex
as papers print in glaring headlines:
"Blanton denounces the Fordney tar
iff bill as pernicious and indefensi-
ble."
This is favorite Blanton trick, and
as a result he is as popular in the
house as the boll-weevil in a cotton
field.
Both sides of the house cheered
Congressman Black who conceded the
right of men to differ with him,
while he scored Blanton for talking
one way and acting another way.
The grilling included good
partisanship against the bill, which
Mr.. Fordney, author of the bill, en-
joyed
"Why, gentlemen" said Mr.. Black,
"the situation is simply this: This
good ship Fordney Bill is about to
sail for a protective tariff harbor
port. Her old, tattered sails are al
ready fluttering in the wind.
"My good friend from Texas is not
willing to get on board the ship. He
knows that she is leaky old boat,
but he has got some babies that he
wants to put on board. So we have
witnessed him enthusiastically taking
those babies and putting them on the
old boat, and today when the whistle
blows for all hands to get on deck,
the ship is about to depart, | see my
good friend from Texas rushing down
the gang plank so that he can get
safely back on shore; but he says, L
will leave my babies on board
"And then | see him going back
home next summer to his constituents
and saying, Although ] helped to get
these babies on board, did all | could
to submarine that old ship after | got
them on. | fired the strongest torpe-
do at her that | possibly could when
| voted against the bill on the final
vote, and if the votes had all been like
mine that old vessel would have gone
down beneath the waves with my ba
bies on board"

URGE HEALTH PROTEC.
TION

Washington.-Children who go to
work between IA and 18 years of age
need special protection if they are to
reach manhood and womanhood with
good health and well developed bod
les, says the federal children's bureau.
An effective means of protection, it
is stated, lies in the adoption of ply
sical standards which all children
entering industry are required by law
to meet. Eighteen states have such
laws. The bureau has issued a report
called Physical Standards for Work

Boston-The anti-boycott associa-

dustrial rights, should secure an in
junction against the commission of ne

This state organization favors the
boycott and calls upon the public to

DREARY YAWP
Heard of Editor Who Does
Mt Know War is Over

Newark, N. J.-While thinking cit
izens reject the wild claim that Amer
lean labor is responsible for present
industrial conditions, this dreary
yawp is repeated by L. T. Russell, edi-
tor of the Newark Ledger.
Because German steel mills are
operating full time, and the American
steel mills but 20 per cent, the edi-
torial oracle says ''The trouble lies
very largely with American labor
that refuses to produce to its utmost,
that still believes it can create more
jobs" etc, etc.
After revamping this hoary Parry
Post citizens alliance stuff of 20
years ago, the editor throws a bou-
quet at the industrial executives of
the country" who cannot, he says,
be charged with inefficient manage
ment.
Some friend of this editor should
mail him copy of report made
by the American society of engineers
on the ineffciencies of American en-
ployers.
Some one should also remind this
"molder" of public opinion that the
steel industry is operated on an avow-
ed anti-union basis, with the 10, IL
and 12-hour day the rule. When this
editor finds fault with that kind of
labor he reflects on his beloved anti
union shop, which he and his kind
persist in referring to as "open"

Atlantic City, N. 1.-The conven-
