Painters Wage
 Health Campaign

New Yorkk, Feb. 23.-Organized painters in this district have inau- gurated an extensive campaign to minimize the health dangers in their calling. It has been proven that a tlve-day week makes it possible for a painter to get the poison out of his system, and the painters won this tlve-day week four years ago. Their victory, however, included so- many Emergency provisions" that 1t means live and a halliday week, which they now demand must be reduced to the original figure.
 The painters district council, rep Tcsenting 10000 painters, maintains its own health bureau which is equip ped with scientific apparatus for the detection and prevention of occupa- tional diseases
 In an examination of 2Oz painters II was found that the percentage of men afflicted with lead and other poisons was unusually high It was also found that 10 per cent showed loss of weight; 43 per cent suffered from con stlpation; B per cent had muscular rheumatism; IS per cent complained ot general weakness and 13 per cent suffered from chronic headaches.

"Incident Is Closed," "a Ousted Workers Told

Washington, Feb. 23-The civil service status of bureau of engraving and printing employees who were dis missed year ago has been restored by the President. This means that , they can be employed elsewhere in | the government service-if they are fortunate enough to find positions. When these employees were dismiss cd without a hearing their compe- tency and even their honesty was questioned. The employees courted an investigation, which was done sec retly, after which no more was heard of the charges
 The reinstatement of their civil service status is considered by the employees and their friends as half confession that they have been wrong ed, and they are demanding that regu- lar charges be preferred against them and they be permitted to answer or the wrong be wholly righted
 It was hoped relief would be se- cured from the White House, but statement has been issued that the President considers the incident closed
 Senator Caraway introduced a reso- luton to investigate the dismissals, but Senator Calder "a flame duck" who IS in charge of that committee, says nothing will be done. The com mlttee held a star chamber session but did not ask any of the victimized employees to appear

BANKS VS. PUBLIC.

I say thls lmpersonally, whoever the officials may be. for when big business blocs largely control the press, our politics, and to some extent public conscience and legislation, there is always an element of Selflshness in the dominating force be- yond any public interest or care for general welfare.--Congressman James A.

WOMEN AND WAR.

We are irrevocably opposed to war and never intend to rest until universal peace is forever established among the nations of the world. We are anxious for
 more general equality between men and women; that marriage shall not take away woman's right to choose her own citizenship; that married women shall not be dlscriminated against in the economic world, and that the mother shall have in all states an equal right
 with the father in the care, custody, and control of the child It is the woman
 who IS doing the best work in connection
 with the childlabor amendment and other
 welfare work. We want universal
 marriage and divorce law of the right sort, We want more dignity and refine
 nent III our local governments. This
 last, however, is more a matter of edu- cation, then legislation, but it is the
 Wonlan's desire. These are important to the woman; and although we recog- n1ze the importance and the absolute necessity of appropriation and tariff bills we feel that these other issues are equally important and should not be put of year after year.-Congresswonlan Winnifred Mason Huck, in Congress siOnal Record.

BANKS. FOR WHOM7

In the State of Iowa there are 1900 banks organized on the corporation sys- tenn, and yet there is not a single bank in the State of Iowa that fits into the business of agriculture, although agricul- ture represents more than three fourths of all the business of the state The control of the credit system is such that the commercial idea dominates it. That idea runs clear up through our whole banking structure, and even dominates the policy of the Federal Reserve system. That policy admittedly does not fit the business of agriculture e-Senator Brook hart, in Congressional Record
