year 5000 men gave more than
$11 900. Some increase that-all the
result of real organized effort. 1t
only goes to show, though, that the
workers are ready to respond if they
are approached in behalf of worthy
cause.
The above sum isn't all that the
workers of Hamilton gave. Not by a
long shot 1t doesn't include the
building crafts, store and office forces,
in fact, that vast army of workers
outside the shops. 1t is plain to be
seen that the working people of Ham
ilton put up a large share of the
amount that it takes to fill the Com
munity Chest each year, and further,
it is with a sense of pride that they

GEORGE X. MAYER
Elected President of Print
ing Pressmen's Union

Printing Pressmen and Assistants
Union, Local No. 235, held well at
tended meeting Monday night. Many
matters of much Importance to mem
bers of the craft were discussed and
much routine business was trans
acted.
Among the big things discussed was
the candidacy of George L. Berry for
the United States presidency
nomination on the democratic ticket
Mr. Berry for many years has been
the live wire president of the Press
mems International Union, and he has
the strong backing of organized labor
generally throughout the United
States. The local union is heavy for
him and pulling for him in every way
to win.
Action was also taken on the ma
tional convention to be held at the
Pressmen's Home, Tennessee, the
latter part of August, this year.
The big feature of the meeting was
the annual election of officers. In a
hot contest, George X Mayer won
out for president over several oppo-
nents. George has been a faithful
worker in the ranks for many years,
and his election to the highest office
within the gift of the organization is
but deserving compliment to a
worthy servant. Other officers elect
ed are Henry Zettler, vice president;
Howard Bell, secretary treasurer.

horse was wild and unmanageable, he
having four years roamed the Col

wild horses, but with patience and
kind and humane treatment, Rex de-
veloped into a talented performer.
The comedy offering will be Larry

Thursday-"You Can't Get Away
With tt
The feature offering at the Rialto
for the last three days of next week,
beginning Thursday, May %, will be
the big Fox special, "You Can't Get
Away With It."
Clarissa Selwyn, who plays the
role of the unresponsive wife in the
Fox production, "You Can't Get Away
With IT, from the story by Gouver-
neur Morris, finds an odd twist in the
story which is worthy of study.
Percy Marmont, as Hemingway,
my husband in the story, deliberately
violates the conventions when he
loves the little homeless working
girl" said Miss Selwyn. "More than
that, he disregards the moral code
when he maintains this girl in luxury.
Ordinarily, man who does that is
scorned by the world. In the picture,
he suffers torment and pays dearly to
learn that "you can't get away with
it."
The added attraction will be Alberta
Vaughn in "The Telephone Girl" and
Fox News.

am very glad to say that have
never made any such statement ~
any time or place, 80 that I have
nothing to retract. ] am fully
aware that the Democratic platform

that Mr.. Pattankall. the Democratic
