Quebec Labor Party
Condemns Dawes Plan
AS Enslaving Workers

MONTREAL.-A resolution con-
demning the Dawes reparations plan
was passed at the annual convention
in Montreal of the Quebec section,
Canadian labor party. The resolution
described the Dawes plan as a new
method of enriching the bankers and
enslaving the workers, of lengthening
the hours Of labor of the German
working class and degrading them to
a coolie standard of living. The reso-
luton carried by 40 to 20.
Another resolution adopted by the
convention protested against U. s.
immigration regulations, which do not
give to naturalized Canadians the
same rights of admission to the
United States as enjoyed by native
Canadians.
A third resolution carried recon-
mended work for the unemployed at
union wages, and that in default of
work the unemployed should receive
full maintenance from the govern
ment.

CALL Police IN
War ON WINDOW
CLEANERS Union
Brutal Methods Used in
Effort to Break Strike
az Ths Fsderatsd Prsssl

NEW YORK CITY, Nov. a.
In spite of extreme police In
timidation methods directed by
Louis FrankeI and his National
Window Cleaning company Of
ficiaIs, the strike of the Window
Cleaners Protective Union con-
tinues, says secretary Peter
Darck, with union men fighting
for organization in this ex-
tremely hazardous work.
These human flies cling to
the window lodges of New York
skyscrapers to keep the win
dows shining clean and half of
them are not even provided with
hooks in which to fasten safety
belts.
Detectives invade the union office,
Darck declares, With a so-called com
planning witness who picks out union
men and charges them with assault
The police detectives even went into
the rooms of Housewreckers' Union,
local 50, which adjoin the Window
Cleaners Union Offices, and beat up
union workers who were in no way
connected with the strike at National
Window Cleaning company.
One housewrecker was falsely ar.
rested and is now held under $1,000
bond for general sessions. An old
man visiting in the office was beaten
unconscious and is still in the hos
pital recovering from the assault by
detectives and company representa-
tives.
Sixteen policemen and six police
detectives are kept on duty for Ma
tional Window Cleaning company to
enforce its injunction against the I'M
ion, Darck says.

Higher prices for bread eaters

Gently formed Continental Bak-

"The consequences for the bread

|Secy. Charles F. Holman of the Bak-
cry Workers international.
For the workers themselves this
octopus has become their worst and
most dangerous enemy. The expert

large New York bread factories which
for many years have been operated
under exclusive trust control reflect
the utterly brutal and unbridled ex-

Holman indorses the finding of
New York investigators who reported
that with the exception of a few
foremen who are being paid compare
lively well, the workers in the en-
ploy Of this trust of millions receive
veritable starvation wages, far below
the union scale. And in addition the
workers in these trust bakeries are

Vigorous defensives by the union

WORKERS DYING
OF STARVATION
Graft and Corruption
Continues as Before
tspeeiaI 70 The paIIy worksrl

ATHENS, Nov. 24.-Turkish work
ers and peasants returning to Turkey
and Greek workers and peasants re-
turning to Greece are dying by the
thousands. They are sctarvIng and
freezin to death because almost every
penny of the money set aside by the
Angora government and by the Greek
government has gone into the hands
Of national politicians.
The exchange Of refugees is taking
place on the basis of the agreement
reached at Lausanne between Turkey
and Greece for the return of their
respective nationals living in Thrace
and Anatolia.
Graft Continues as Before.
Before the advent of the present
liberalrepublican government, headed
by Michalapoulis, the practices of the
officials in the refugees bureau here
were the subject of bitter attacks
against Premier Sofoulis, a republi-
can. The refugees have been unable
to notice any difference in their per
sonal incomes within the last few
months.
The pretenses Of the Greek govern
ment to put stop to the widespread
graft and corruption are standing
joke in government circles Two army
officers, convicted Of stealing several
thousands of drachmas from army
funds, were released from prison on
the day after they had received SEN
fences Of IS years each. 81
Besides all of their other burdens,
the Greek workers are now bearing
the load of foreign debt of over
200 million drachmas, imposed on
Greece when that country took pos
session of Turkish lands in Smyrna.
Great Britain, France and Italy forced
Greece to agree to pay the debts of
whatever territory she got. The ter
ritory in question has since been lost
to Greece, but the debt is still claimed
by the European powers.

progress will mean insecurity
and more unemployment for the
real workers? Hoover's figures
prove it.
Profits Grow; PayroIIs Shrink.
The country, according to Hoover's
review of the year ended June 80,
1924, is producing and selling more
goods with materially reduced work
ing forces. He doesn't say SO, but his
statistics show it. This means more
profits on smaller payrolls. 1t explains
why industry can appear to pay slight
ly higher percapita wages while main
tanning an army Of unemployed. This
army is an insurance against labor's
capturing it's real share of this econo-
mic progress in shorter hours and a
higher living standard.
THE outstanding features of the fis-
cal year." says Hoover, were first,
the advance in agricultural prices;
second, the beginnings of sound poll
cies in German reparations leading to
a hopeful measure Of economic recov-
cry in Europe; and third, the complete
recovery Of our own industry and COM
merce, great stability of prices, high
production, full employment, expand
ing foreign trade and prosperity thru
out the business world"
Breadline Grows Too.
He gives the following major eco
nomic indexes to show the domestic
situation. With the exception of en-
ployment these numbers represent the
percent of activity in given year
with the year 1919 as 100 per cent.
The employment figures, however, for
some unexplained reason, show the
percent of employment in a given year
with the calendar year mot fiscal
year, 1923 as 100 per cent.

capital a sense of confidence. But
how will labor interpret them? They
show manufacturing production sta
bilized during 1923 and 1924 at level
between Is per cent and 16 per cent
above 1919. They show mineral pro-
duction mounting to even greater
heights. They show the volume of
freight shipments 10 per cent above
1919 and the volume of wholesale
trade IL per cent above that level if
allowances for price changes are
made. In other words they show the
owners of industry producing and dis
tributing more goods on which they
realize their profit.
But there is no similar increase in
employment. Referring Hoover's en-
pIoyment figures to 1919 instead of
1924, we find a drop of more than 10
per cent. In other words in the fiscal
year 1924, the country was manufac-
uring about Is per cent more goods
with IL per cent fewer workers than
In 1919. The number Of unemployed
miners will bear witness to the same
situation in mineral production. Ex-
pansion of plant capacity, moderniz-
ed labor saving machinery, efficiency
management are producing situation
where large margin of jobless work
ers will be chronic.

WIEN YOU EAT CABBAGE


Many persons seem to think cab
bage is very indigestible. 1--WE sell
dom have cabbage" boasts many
women, land l never give 1t to my
children Yet it was an old saying
in Rome that the reason the enor-
nous population of that city got
along with so few doctors was be-
cause every one ate cabbage.
The fault is perhaps with the way
most American housewives cook
cabbage. They cook it too long and
too slowly. The method that would
be best for cooking carrots or string
beans is not a good method for cab
bage, which is most wholesome
when cooked in rapidly boiling water
for between twenty and thirty min
utes-never more-with the cover
off One expert on diet says it
should be cooked in this way with a
half teaspoon of baking soda in the
water. 1t is then wholesome for
children. Says a bulletin of the
United States Department of Agri-
culture: at is one of our most use
full vegetables, being available during
the late fall, winter and spring

then be served with butter or cream
sauce or sent to the table plain for

LIGHT FIXTURES

The brilliant, shadeless chandelier
is appropriate for the brilliant ball
room where men and women are
perfectly groomed and shine out at
their best. For the cozy home room,
softly shaded light is the best.
Candle-light is IDEAL but too mellow,
for ordinary use. However, where
it can be used it enhances the charm
of the dear ones gathered around the
family circle.
The inverted bowl lights are ap
propriate for more or less public
rooms, for a shop room or for the
home dining room, but to induce
restful, confiding feeling, a more
shaded light is preferable. In liv-
ing rooms, the light should be low,
for reading or sewing. 1t should
then be a wall, a table or stand
light. In the dressing room one
needs light each side of the mir
ror, which will through it's glare on
the person who wishes to inspect
himself with care. In the bathroom
the brightest of lights is desirable.
Fanciful shading is to be avoided
good only for novelty, not use.
Color tones stimulating sunlight are
the best 1t is hard to improve on
Nature. Yellow silken shades give
a mellow glow.
