Especial to The UsIIy Worker,

WASHINGTON, d. c. Oct. A.
Committees representing rs crafts Of
the employees OF the navy yard are
appearing before the navy wage board
md presenting their requests" for
wage increases, supported by evidence
(which is somehow required by law
compiled from survey TO wage scales
IN the locality.
The attitude Of the u. s. govern
ment toward labor which II employs
is shown in the fact that all hearings
ere secret and tho requests" OF the
workers are concealed by the govern
ent navy board until after the board
r'akes its decisions on them. II has
leaked out that all crafts are making
e.eQuests' for increases, however.

coupled with a continuing reduction

Same Old Bunk.
This is merely a statement of the
basis Of the trade union movement,
upon which 1t has been struggling
these many years, although president
GreenA suddenly discovered that it is
the enunciation of a new idea estab-
fishing a position far in advance of
any position we have ever taken be-
fore. We stand on the threshold of
a giant industrial era. New condi-
tions are here. This is our way of
meeting them"
The way, of course, is the adoption
of a general declaration, hoary with
age, while all definite programs for
class struggle actions are denounced
as Communist doctrine.
still "Reward Friends"
It was Delegate Andy Furuseth, Of
the Seamen's Union, who hailed the
convention statement declaring for
nonpartisan political action as a re-
turn to sanity. This statement de-
clared that the nonpartisan cam
paign policy not only opens up a
Vista Of hope and promise to Ameri-
can labor and American democracy;
it Is imperative as a measure of de-
tense against the deadly menace of
the present assault on representative
government"
So the convention approved of the
executive councils declaration for
boring within the two old parties Of
Wan Street with not a single voice or
vote raised against it.
Political Optimism.
Attic congress is being stripped of
its so-called 'progressives." the report
declares that "a thoroly and perma-
nentiy progressive congress is almost
within our grasp"
The labor party is applauded in
Great Britain and Mexico. but in the
United States republicans and demo-
Gratis get the federation's support.
The Railway Clerks were turned
down in their jurisdictional fight with
the Teamsters' Union by a vote Of
23.s45 to 1896. According to state
ment issued by the delegates of the
Railway Clerks, this union will quit
the federation. The statement fol-
lows:
TT is the opinion OF the representa-
tives of the Railway Clerks that our
grand executive council will give up
its charter In the American Fedora
ton of Labor permanently rather than
to give up its jurisdiction over their
employees involved" This union has
about $4,000 members.
The union label campaign was given
considerable discussion, President
Green rising to the occasion with a
speech in the late Gompers' best style.
He declared, 1t would dissipate the so
called apathy and indifference" that
he claimed had seized the workers
since the war.

Large Demand for
Preferred Stock
Sale of Securities Shows That
Community Is Prosperous

An interesting sidelight on the fl
nancial condition of residents of tins
section and their general desire to
place their money in a safe invest
ment paying substantial dividends IS
shown in the experiences of the en-
ployes of The Ohio Power Company,
who are now selling their Company's
Preferred Stock. Although the shares
were offered to local people but a
short time ago, a substantial amount
has already been sold.
With hardly an exception local res
idents have been eager to hear the
merits of the stock and surprising
lV large number had money ut their
disposal with which to buy shares
Immediately.
The sale of the Preferred Stock is
particularly interesting because 1T is
in line with a principle which is play
ing an important part in the busl-
ness of public utility companies
throughout the country. This new
idea, commonly known as Customer
Ownership. is based on the reallza-
tion that it is good business for a
large concern to have the good VIII
Of its neighbors and to share its pros
pellty with them.
Through ownership of the Preferred
Stock the COmpanys' customers VIII
share in the money paid out as divi-
dends to stockholders every three
months while the Company will gam
through friendship relationship with
the public.
Prior to this sale of the stock pro
visions were made to meet every con-
tingency which might face the invest
or. These include an Easy Payment
Plan, safeguards to the stock and
dividends, and a means by which the
securities might easily be resOld.
The stock, which is priced at $95. 90
and dividend a share is sold both for
cash and on an Easy Payment Plan,
calling for monthly payments of
$1,000. 1t is cumulative, making it
necessary for The Company to pay It's
dividends in full before a penny is
paid on the Common Stock and is
preferred as to assets to the extent
Of $4,000 and dividend per share.
Dividends are paid by the Company
on March /, June /, September | and
December /. Those buying shares on
the Easy Payment Plan will receive
interest at 5Gt a year on the regular
dividend dates until the stock is paid
for. at which time they will be en-
titled to receive the regular dividend
which. at present price Of the stock,
amounts to more than 6A q a year
A resale department is maintaine@
to aid investors in selling their stock.
Public utility stocks are today the
favOrites of the careful investors bOtn
because of their great safety and
their fair dividend return. At the
close Of 1924, the last date for which
figures were available, there We're
more than 947 $50 shareholders Ii

CHAPTER Tx
The Visitor

That night ChicS;s wrote to Jake
She would keep the gift because of
the way it was offered. She would
prize it above measure. There were
long, bright pages. When it was fin
ished she dashed a bit Of sachet ON
the paper, for this was a schoolgirl
trick of hers. And she signed her
name with an airy flourish.
| But she made no mention of her
dismissal-no hint that she was
beaten.
She sat at her pretty wicker desk
moving a dry pen back and forth
over the page. Her heart was blaz-
ing.
For there had been. like a star
in her mind, the dream of great
achievement; vision of a new and
glorious Chickie climbing up to some
great height; pale, beautiful, person,
with a light about her like she had
seen in the faces Of those who serve.
She wanted this; had followed the
hope of it. In the hospital it be-
came each day more nearly hers.
Now it was gone. The world
wanted her to fall-had the power to
shut her out. She considered this
with hard, metallic quiet. They
could say she was a menace and
ask her to leave. If the world could
do this, what was to become Of her?
Hate spread like wound in her
mind.
Yet she wouldn't admit to Jake
that she was conquered. To write
this would mean surrender, complete
and final, of her fight. She wasn't
ready for this-not yet
Wirhal, she had never wished
more piercingly for some one to
stand beside her; some one to say
that faith, was high-oh, come now
She thought of Mary. Ask her.
Mary might think Of a way.
She went down to Mary's on Fri
day morning. Mary thought it was
just her day off. This made it hard
to speak. Now if Mary had said:
How GOMEZ, What are you doing
home? This isn't your free time, is
it?" Chickie would have answered.:
'Ho--you bet it's free! Times my
own again. Kicked out-that's a
fact
But Marys eyes were dancing
with excitement. She grabbed
Chickie effusively: you heard Oh
you didn't? About Lucy-well-
sit tight then. If it isn't delirious!
After all these years Of grubbing, in
walks George Adams last night with
$4,000 in his pockets. Poor Lucy!
She's almost out of her mind. It's
from those old lots they owned in
Florida. George bought the lots and
paid about two-bits for them?
"Well-a railroad needs them.
And they bounce down the 10000
no eyes winked about it one way or
the other"
This was drama exultant and
quivering marching straight into
their homely kitchens. They raved
about it-Mary was in fever. So
! Chickie didn't speak.
But after lunch when the first ex-
traordinary delight was a little
tempered, Chickie's own problem
came uppermost. She went over
ways Of broaching the subject and
mentally decided to say, calmly:
| t'Mary, I've been asked to resign.
I've left the hospital. 1 have no idea
what on earth to do now"
What she heard herself saying
was this: 'Mary-what do you

She went around other stores
buying all manner Of nick-nacks-
three big, blue egg cups-nice for
breakfast. Jennie would like them.
It occurred to her to bring gifts
to them. Jennie loved lavender
two bungalow aprons Of lavender
with the pockets and all piped in
black, with punches of roses here
and there
And a silk shirt for Jonathan.
Wouldn't he be the lord, though?
She bought a white one, very heavy.
She paid So for it. Putting it under
her arm, she came near to crying.
She rode blocks past Thirtieth st.
on her way home, then got off and
walked back.
She took out her vanity case, put
on rouge-made her lips as bright
as cherries.
And she came in to them laughing
and tossed the packages upon
them. They were sitting at lunch.
She said: Howell, here she is!
Amt this grand thought"
Then there was "Why?' What!
and how can you be here?'
by reason of two feet and ten
toes, ole dears-my vacation"
She threw her arms around Jona-
than-and pressed her head against
his rugged heart and all her life
seemed trembling from her. But she
said: "a surprise, Johnny darling
don't you love to be surprised? Set
my place-all pretty now"
She ran into her room-gay, sunny
room-closed the door-braced her
back and all her strength against it.

suppose would happen If they should
find out about me?"
For pity sakes-why should they
find out about it now? Didn't you
say few of the girls are from In
dianapolis? It would be the purest
accident if they should stumble on
it."
Just then little Edward came in
from the back yard. He saw now 5,
full of roguery, and at the knowing
stage where he seized on each new
word, rolled it over under his
tongue, and lay in his crib at night
trying it out. He said to Chickie
once when she appeared without a
hat and with her hair blown: Say
you look reckless And he teased
Mary by calling her in very precise,
prolonged sounds: "Oh-mother,
dearr'
The hopskotch Mary had chalked
it made over. Then Mary must
teach him again how to play. When
they got to the mailbox between the
fifth and sixth space. there was a
heated argument. Couldn't she tell
him how to do 1t? You did not
straddle the box-that wasn't the
way! And it wasn't a mailbox, any.
how. 1t was the DEVILS ears be-
longed there in the center. Well, he
guessed he knew.
Mary said: 1T is the way! That's
the way we always played. You ask
Chickie."
Edward wrinkled his nose. with
lofty: Maybe that was the way in
old times? 'Tain't the way now!"
He puzzled and practiced and finally
jumped with both feet together. And
that was the new, good way.
Mary became absorbed, wondering
about the child. Should she give his
individuality full play? Should she
let him contradict and argue with
her? When should she curb and
when should she humor?
She reverted from this to the con-
sideration Of Lucy's luminous good
fortune, forgetting Chickfe's prob
lem until Chickies desire to speak
was gone. Then Mary said: What
was that we were talking about?"
II forget. Nothing important, 1
suppose"
Why make Mary sad? Settle it
herself.
Mary walked home with her.
There would be a conclave Of all the
Blakes, little and big, in Martha's
kitchen. They would have lunch and
wind into all the details of Lucy's
dazzling, incredible Joy.
