FINANCIAL RIGHT
 OF MEXICAN LABOR ' ASKED BY OBREGON
Pensions and Life and Accident In- surance States Reward in Com
 pensation Bill.
By International Labor News Service

By International Labor News Service.
 Washington, D. C., July 2I.-Pres= ident Obregon of Mexico Is basing his national industrial and political reorganization program upon the economic well-being of the workers, which he will try to accomplish at the next session of the Mexican con gress by the most comprehensive workmen's compensation bill ever in troduced into any modern legislature. Copies of President Obregon's pro- posal have just been received at head quarters of the PanAmerican Fed eration of Labor here.
 The proposed law will include: I. Compensation for accidents while at work
 ?. Old age pensions.
 B. Life insurance for the workers. The State Fund guaranteeing pay ment will be created by contributions paid by the employer equal to 10 per cent. of the sum paid for wages. Thirty years of labor will entitle a workman to pension equal to 40 per cent. of the wages received during that period of labor. The pension rate increases to 70 per cent. for a man who has labored 50 years. All employees, intellectual as we'll as manual, are entitled to full rights under this bill
 Accident and life insurance become state matter, extending the advan- tage to every workman in propor- tion to his production as a workman.
 Individuals who do not contribute to the national wealth through pro- duction-loafers, in other words-do not benefit from this national legis- lation. And a good and faithful serv- ant does not wait for his reward until he goes to heaven.
 "It is the duty of the State to seek a social equilibrium" says President Obregon in his announcement of the workmen's compensation bill. He calls attention to 'the enactment of ambiguous legislation difficult of en- forcement which does not reslk in any benefits to the working classes and brings uncertainties to the capi- talist classes because their position is not clearly defined by such legis- lation." He believes the program vital to the future life of the nation.
 President Obregon took his pro- gram directly to the people of Mex took place. He urged the workmen to find out before voting where the candidates stood on the compensa- ton measure. By instigating na- tional discussion of the program be- fore action is taken by the legislature, President Obregon hoped to protect the measure from certain agencies of reaction. The dangers of unemploy- ment insurance are avoided by Pfesi- dent Obregon and no reference is made to 1t in his announcement

CIGARS MADE HERE FREE FROM FAINT
 OF NON-UNIONISM
Inferior Brands Flooding Connecticut Market With Bait of
 Lust as Good"

CIGARS
 Most of the non-union cigars sold in Connecticut are made in New York, New Jersey or Pennsylvania; {; about 759o of the cigars made in the latter state are non-union. Great companies, backed by Wall street f. nonciers, operate a chain of factories in these states and long hours and low wages prevail in their plants. If trouble because of wages or condi- tions arise in factory the place is promptly closed and remains so until the workers are starved ipto submis sion. Production meanwhile continues in the branch shops.
 These non-union employers have. always endeavored to have a surplus knowing that competition for jobs results in a low wage. Prior to the enactment of the restrictive immiSra ton law the trust obtained many fac tory recruits from Europe and with the failure of that method they now conduct schools for apprentices Un- der this system the trust receives the services of apprentices at very low cost and at the same time creates and continues the desired surplus of cigar makers seeking employment. Boys and girls are employed in the appren- tice schools. They are not taught the entire trade-j just a single operation, but their combined work produces cigars that are saleable. These child cigarmakers are supposed to be paid at the rate of $6 weekly. However, $2 is withhe weekly and is paid only if the apprenticeship be completed
 The product of this child labor as weel as other non-union cigars are offered for sale in Connecticut and profteering retai ldealers are asking much for them is charged for cigars made in Connecticut by adult labor and under union conditions.
 Those opposed to child labor and the low-wage, long-hour system of the cigar trust should avoid their products. The only way to do this is to accept only cigars placed in boxes bearing the Blue Label of the Cigar Makers Union.

(By Elmer C. Gunn)

The Methodists and all the people
of Bogalusa were made glad last Fri.
day evening when Col. A. C. Good
year announced at the stockholders
banquet, given at the Pine Tree Inn.
that Mrs. G. w. Goodyear, his moth
er, had instructed him to say that
she was making donation of five
thousand dollars to the Elizabeth Sui
Ivan Memorial Methodist Episcopal
Church, South, to be used in purchas-
ing an organ. This is another demon
stration Of the generous interest Of
the GoOdyears in the city and the
citizens Of Bogalusa, which interest
has been manifested in various ways,
from the time the city was founded.
It is understood that the gift is
made as memorial to "The Mother
of Bogalusa," Mrs. Elizabeth Sullivan,
a lifelong friend of Mrs. Goodyear.
This gift is but another proof of the
truth that the power of the influ-
ence of Cody life is felt long after
the person living that life has passed
away. 1t is remarkable thing that

result of the influence of one who is
already gone to join the great ma

Hon. C. W. Goodyear, deceased
husband of the donor, was the second
president of the Great Southern Lum-
Der Company, and one of the body of
men whose vision and leadership
brought to pass the wonders of our
industrial center.
Some years ago the citizens of Bo-
galusa erected a monument in Good
year Park to the memory of this great
leader.
The Methodists of Bogalusa have
much for which to be thankful in this
splendid gift. 1t adds further to our
responsibility, as well as opening
wider the doors of our opportunity.
We look to the future with the as
surance that comes from the fact that
we are equipped for any sort of SER
vice We may be called upon to render.
We feel that the Lord has done great
things for US, for which we are glad.

the number it may require to give one
to every needy family in Bogalusa.
IT you know of family who should
receive a box take it upon yourself
to see that the name reaches DIR.
Slaughter or his committee, for if
you think perhaps someone else will
send it in, the name may be missed.
1t would be far better to have the
names duplicated than to miss a single
family. The committee also requests
that you give the accurate location of
the family residence, as much diff

lit should grow. Two hundred add.
tional families would mean a very
large additional business to the mer-
chants and professional men of the
city.
We also want to talk over the can
ming factory.
It might be we'll just at this par
ticular time for everyone who re-
.ceives one of these letters to find out
who is a member of the Chamber of
Commerce, and if there is anyone
whom you know who is not a member,
and who should be, have them ar
range for membership and then we
will be glad to have them attend the
luncheon.
The immediate future of city de-
ponds on the housing problem.
Suggest you talk this over among
your friends and neighbors, so that
when we have the luncheon We can
reach some conclusion about whether
or not we are going to let things drift
along as they are, or take some i'm
mediate action to relieve the hous-

Chamber Of Commerce VIII Hold
important Meetng December 18th

W. H. Sullivan president of the
Chamber of Commerce, has called q
meeting of that body to be held at
the Pine Tree Inn at noon on Thurs
day, December 28th, and following q
luncheon an important business ses-
sion will be held.
One of the most serious questions
facing Bogalusa is the shortage of
houses. There is demand today for
more than one hundred houses in Bo-
galusa, without a single house avail
able. New industries desire to To-
cate here, but it is useless to encour-
age them because there will be no
place for their employees to live.
There must be a solution to this
important question, which will be
threshed out at the meeting.
Another important matter to be
brought before the meeting will be
the future of the canning plant which
has done much to encourage truck
farming in this section. While the
local plant began operation under a
handicap, it proved the plant could
be made great thing for this city,
as it would provide market for two
or three cash crops for the farmers.
The election of directors for 1923
will also be held at this meeting. All
members Of the Chamber of Com
merce are urged to make plans to
attend this meeting.
The following letter has been
mailed to every member Of the Cham
Der of Commerce:
Bogalusa, La, Dec. IL, 1922.
To all Members Of the Association of
Commerce:
Am arranging for a luncheon at
the Pine Tree Inn on December 18th,
at II o'clock noon for members of the
Chamber of Commerce. There will
be no cover charge. It is proposed
at this luncheon to discuss one of
the most important things that has
come up recently in connection with
the industrial development of our
city, and that is the shortage of homes
Of white people. Just at the present
time we need 100 more houses.
If the Great Southern Lumbr Com
oany decides to increase the capacity
IF the paper mill, it will employ
great many more men. and we will
need 200 additional homes
Tor white people. Some arrangement
should be made by the citizens to pro-
Tide houses if the city is to grow as
