Special Dispatch to The star.
RICHMOND, Va, December s.
Robert Hawkins, jr., son of a
clerk in the office of the State
treasurer, is the proud possessor
of a fine gold watch, chain and
gold knife. The gift came from an
old lady of the city. Ten days ago
the young man was in town and he
saw the old lady trying to cross
Broad street, where traffic Is
heavy and the speeding autos and
street cars make life a burden for
young folks. Young Hawkins
watched the lady for a moment,
saw her start several times,
draw back and then look and get
ready for another effort.
He walked up raised his hat,
proffered his assistance in getting
across and took small basket
and then conducted her to safety.
She asked his name. his address,
and thanked him, saying You
will hear from me-" A day or two
ago the postman left a package for
him, which contained the gifts,
with the gentle admonition, AL
ways be polite" and then the ini-
tials of the sender. He does not
know the lady nor where she

VISITING NURSES
WORK STRESSED
Mrs. Montgomery Blair Out
lines Service Performed in
Address at Friends School.

Addressing the pupils of Sidwell S
Friends School yesterday afternoon,
Mrs. Montgomery Blair, chairman of
the Instructive Visiting Nurse So
ciety's budget. campaign, stressed the
Importance of the vital service per-
formed by workers of this organiza-
tion.
In introducing Mrs. Blair, Thomas
w Sidwell, the. principal of the
Friends School, stated that it was a
source of pride to the Friends that
one of the first visiting nurses in
Washington was supported entirely
by gifts from the members of the
Society of Friends, md when this
nurse her health broken down by
overwork, contracted tuberculosis,
the Friends paid for her maintenance
at the Sanitarium at Saranac Lake
until she had recovered from her long
Illness. Mr.. Sidwel stated that mas
much as the pupils of the Friends
School represented all shades of re-
ligious belief, the work of this visit
ing nurses association, which is ready
TO serve all sick people. irrespective
of their race, color, or creed, should
appeal TO all of the pupils, since the
corner stone of all religions is serv-
ice TO those who need it.
Concrete Example Cited.
Mrs Blair gave as a concrete ex-
ample the work of one of the visit
ing nurses for a part of one day.
After giving one little girl a bath,
vapor treatment and mustard plaster
for a severe bronchitis attack, she
said, the nurse would go to a tiny
home on Ninth street extended, where
she would find a young foreign
mother with a baby. The baby
father goes TO work before daybreak k
ins a local bakery, and the mother has
no one but the nurse to talk to in her
broken English until the father re-
tlrns.
From taking care of this mother
and her offspring, the nurse goes to
one-room apartment to make com
fort bic a paralyzed old lady whose
daughter, the breadwfnner of the
family, is away all day at work. The
nurse returns TO this helpless patient
in the afternoon to give her a little
attention so that She may greet the
tired daughter with cheerful and
rested face when she returns from
her hard days work.
Another family visited by the
nurse lives in a two-room apartment
and consists of seven persons, one
of whom is A little boy who was
ASa Alp4S 4tlJu4tu pS an duNOlllODlIt
about a year ago.
Partly SeIf-SupportinE.
The work Of the Instructive Visit
ing Nurses Association is only 80
per cent supporting, Mrs. Blair
stated. inasmuCh as no call for as
sistance ia ever refused because of
the poverty of the one in need.
Ninety per cent of the sick people
in Washington depend upon the as
sociation for nursing. since only
about 10 per cent of the population
are treated in the hospitals Of the
city.
Mrs. Blair emphasized the first
word of the title OF the association
instructive-and said that much of
the work done by the nurses was of
4 preventive nature.
The pupils Of the Friends School
showed great interest in the con-
etructive work of the association and
promised to do their best to make
all the students Of the school 100 per
cent contributors to the fund.

Labor Leaders Wage
War Over Carcass
OF Cleveland Meet
az The Federated Pressl

WASHINGTON, May 27.-LaFol-
lette will be nominated by the Con-
ference for Political Action, at Cleye-
land, on July 4th, regardless of
whether McAdoo has been named as
the democratic presidential candidate,
in the opinion of LaFollette men in
the union movement. Rejection Of
McAdoo will be urged on railroad
labor men upon the ground that, in
preparing himself financially for the
presidential race, he undertook to
serve the oil interests in imposing an
imperialist policy upon Mexico. He
agreed for contingent fee of $1,000
900 to seek to nullify the fruits of the
Mexican revolution, embodied in Ar
ticle q of the Mexican constitution,
under which Mexico claims title to the
oil deposits.
There is new discussion Of the pos
sibility that Warren S. Stone of the
Locomotive Engineers will be named
for the vice-presidency with LaFol-

GOTHAM BUILDERS
In NEW ATTACK
ON PLASTERERS
Try To Get Them On
Conspiracy Charge
ny The Federated Prsss.)

NEW YORK. May 27.--Is a labor
union illegal when it is strong enough
to enforce its rights? This is the is
sue in the second legal fight which
SO New York nlasterers are about to
wage against conspiracy indictments.
The first trial a year ago ended in
jury disagreement. Among the in
dicted men are President Michael ].
Colleran, Palsterers' Local 60, and
other executive board members Of the
union. The case is to be tried soon
before the state supreme court judge,
jeremiah Mahoney.
The indictment is based on the con-
tention that the union with an alleged
100 per cent organization forces its
demands upon employers which con-
stitutes a conspiracy. The union takes
the position that the men indicted
committed none of the alleged Of
lenses for personal profit but solely
upon the sanction of the union mem
bership and for the rights of the
union membership. The defense is
expected to forward certain employ
ers as witnesses to- show that their
business did not suffer during the pc
Rod of alleged conspiracy.
A handicap has been placed on the
defense by the court in allowing the
prosecution to pick a special jury
panel. The panel consists of business
men, and includes no member of a
trade union nor person known to be
friendly to labor. Samuel Untermyer,
clever millionaire lawyer, who failed
to get the union in the last trial, is
again prosecuting the case.

''Die-Hard" New York
Theatre Managers
Play Judicial Farce

NEW YORK, May 27.-A tempo
rary injunction has been granted to
the die-hard group of the Producing
Managers Association, restraining the
Actors Equity Association and the
Managers Protective Association
from carrying out the recently signed
10-year contract. The latter organiza-
Ition which controls more than rs per
cent of the theatrical productions had
agreed with the union, an American
Federation of Labor organization with
about 10000 members, that all casts
be 80 per cent Equity. Both the man.
ayers organization and the union, as
well as individual producers are
named in the injunction.
This is regarded as death bed
gesture on the part of the anti-union
producers, who now control but IL
Broadway productions. 1t is pointed
out that they have secured an injunc-
ton ten days before the expiration OF
the Equity contract in order to be
able to sign with the union without
closing their theaters June l, provid.
ed they are not able to get a perma-
nent injunction.

How To Do It. Worries
Labor Govt Forced To
Pay Workless Workers

LONDON, England, May 27-Ex-
perts' reports prepared for the labor
government, indicate that the unem-
ployed army will not be reduced be-
low 100000 during the next four
years.
To meet this situation the govern
ment is worrying its young head of.
II they must hand out unemployment
doles for 100000 persons. they are
wondering where the money will come
from. Last winter over one hundred
million pounds were spent for unem-
ployment relief. Indications are that
this amount will have to continue to
be spent during the next two years
The government intends increasing
the number receiving "out Of work
doles" by paying unemployed girls
and boys from IA years old up.
The opponents Of the labor govern
ment are accusing them Of trying to
bride the voters with the unemploy-
ment relief.

OIL STRIKERS IN III
CONFLICT With I
BRITISH TRUST
Mexican Workers Fight
Royal Dutch Shell
tspeoIaI . The DaIIy Worksry

MEXICO CITY, May 27. - The
strike Of the 1000 oil workers against
the Mexican Eagle Oil Company is
still going strong. The strike is en-
tering its third month and has tied
up refining at the Tampico plant OF
the British-owned concern. The Eagle
is a subsidiary of the Royal Dutch
Shell Company organized under Mex.
lean law.
Negotiations between the workers
and the representatives of the men
were broken off when the oil COM
pany refusd to permit a representa-
tive of the Mexican Federation Of La
Dor to sit in on the conferences. The
oil company sprung the usual bunk
about being willing to deal directly
with the men but not wanting to have
anything to do with outside unions.
The Mexican government is anxious
to settle the strike as the taxes they
collect from the Eagle have been cut
from 100000 pesos to 100000 pesos.
The Eagle is filling its orders for the
South American market, which it
practically controls, by buying from
American concerns.
Fight Workers Committee.
The strike began when the compa-
ny refused to grant the demands Of
the workers that the company should
not fire any workers without the con-
sent of a workers committee. The
company replied that they would not
stand for any interference with the
running of their business.
Later they backed down enough to
go into conference with the workers
only to withdraw when the workers
wanted a representative of the Next
can Federation of Labor to sit in with
them The workers expect the COM
pany to recede from it's pig headed
stand almost any day.

Figures Show That
Unemployment Is
Rapidly Increasing

WASHINGTON.-Out Of every 100
workers who applied for jobs during
March, 2S found no jobs open. But
40 more out Of each 100 were insult
ed to jobs that were open, according
to reports from the state and NUM-
cipal employment agencies received
by the U. S. department of labor from
80 states. This marks a temporary
improvement as compared with the
winter months but shows a condition
much worse than any month Of 1928
prior to December. During May and
June, 1923, the first months for which
combined statistics from the various
states are available, there were more
jobs offered than workers available.
Late reports of curtailed activity in
many industries make It possible that
returns for April and May of this year
will be less favorable than those for
March.

MARINE UNIONS
STRIKE TO SET
DESERTERS FREE
Crew Wouldn't Sail In
Sinking Ship
BY w. FRANCIS AHERN.

SYDNEY, New South Wales, May
PA fine spirit of working class soil
darity is shown in connection with the
steamer Port Lyttleton which is laid
up in Sydney harbor awaiting repairs
Last January, the steamer struck
a rock and temporary repairs were
carried out. The captain ordered the
vessel to sea but some of the crew
refused to sail, fearing she would go
down with them. They were arrested
for desertion.
When the vessel got to Sydney, in
a badly leaking condition, the IA mari
time unions comprising the transport
workers group of the Sydney Labor
council refused to sanction the repairs
unless the charges against the men
were withdrawn. The owners refused
whereupon the vessel was declared
"black."
For three months the agents have
tried in every way to get repairs but
dock after dock has refused to do the
work, as the dock-employes have noti-
fed their employers that any attempt
to have the job done while the vessel
is "black" will cause a general strike.
An attempt to take the vessel to New
Zealand to have her locked there has
also failed.
The vessel is still laid up at Sydney
and crew is kept busy pumping to
prevent it from sinking.

Foes of Overtime

SYDNEY, N. S. W., May 27.-About
700 iron workers are on strike at the
ironworks near Sydney, owing to the
management dismissing two workers
who refused to work overtime on
Sundays. The mems reason was that
there were fellow workers out OF en-
ployment and they didn't think 1t
right to earn overtime while others
were starving. The men refuse to re-
sumo until the two men are rein
stated and overtime is given to men
out OF employment.

INDUSTRY
HAS HIT BOTTOM
SAY MACNATES
Congress Interferes With
Their Business

NEW YORK, May 27.-Steel execu-
tives, here to attend the meeting of
the American Iron and Steel Institute,
said today that the steel industry was
dragging bottom, but that slight signs
of betterment appeared.
Passage of the bonus bill and other
legislation were attributed by the
leaders as having a bad effect upon
business.
"The Bethlehem Steel Corporation
is operating at about SO per cent. We
have touched bottom" President
Grace of the company, said.
my company is operating at about
so per cent The situation is as low
as it can get and business is bound
to be better. look for an improve
ment after the national conventions
and the adjournment of congress"
President Campbell of the Youngs-
town Sheet and Tube Company. said.
Things are not as bad as made out
in some quarters" officials of the
Jones and Laughlin Company pointed
out. Business probably will turn
for the better. 1t always has. l do
not expect the change Immediately"
Chairman Huston Of the Lukens
Steel Company said legislation was to
blame for the poor business, but was
convinced better business would be
by midsummer.

have an Unborn contempt for author
ity and government. Mass demon
strations occur whenever a petty Of
fetal usurps too much power to him
self. The workers invariably scorn
police officers and take the side Of
the offender being nabbed by the
officer.
Spanish workers labor long, whe-
Their in the fields or in the factories
or on the docks. They are not i'm
bued with the "manana" tomorrow
spirit which has so long been mouth
ed as the characteristic Of all Span
ish people. The put-it-off people are
the middle class bourgeoisie and the
upper classes. The peasants particul-
arly work long hours and find no
''manana" Of rest because modern
agricultural methods have not been in
troduced. The soil is titled in the
same old way it has been scratched
thru the centuries under the glazing
sun of the south.
There are 100000 agricultural
laborers. 100000 industrial workers,
100000 miners, 100000 fishermen;
3,700,000 tradesmen and office work
ers in Spain. The proportion of work
ers organized in unions has never
been great. At their height the Sim
dicato Unico organizations claimed
100000 members. The Catholic
church has about the same member
ship, it declares, in its unions of agri-
cultural workers.
Barcelona Strongly syndieaIist
The Sindicato Unico is not a single
organization but rather a principle OF
industrial unionism" which was used
in organizing various industries. The
syndicalist unions are autonomous but
act with one another in spontaneous
sympathy.
The syndicalist unions retain theiI
hold in Barcelona in the great textile
and printing plants. Cotton from the
southern United States comes in great
quantities to these Barcelona mills fol
cloth manufacturers and practically
all the printing for Spain is done in
this city. Much machinery is man
ufactured in Barcelona, which is one
of the most modern cities of the coun
try. The population of the city and
its surrounding manufacturing town
suburbs is about 100000.
Strikes Affected Politics
The 100000 Catalonians are close
sympathizers with the syndicalist
unions and support the strikes which
occur in Barcelona. The syndicalists
direct action tactics have caused ser
ious crises in politics at times.
The Socialists control the Central
Union of Workers which has formed
Labor Party. No more than sever
Socialist deputies have ever been in
