Mysterious Bunk

Once in a blue moon now some bright old fashioned
cynic says: "Aw l read the advertisements.
They're full of bunk
But when one starts look for it. the bunk in adver
Using shows mysterious tendency to be absent Speci-
of it are hard to locate.
The reason for that is simple Bad goods cannot be
successfully advertised To stand up under the ptess
glare of publicity, merchandise must be honest It
must live up to its promises Otherwise you would
quickly cease to buy it.
So advertisers discovered long ago that for them too,
honesty the best policy. More!-the only possible
policy if they were to remain advertisers! " '*'
Read the advertisements. They are not full of bunk.
On the contrary full of honest information and
interesting They show you ways to be
Portable They make life easier They help you to be
happier and healthier. They teach you prices and

years he also held the position as Ac.

Bank and in his death this institution has
lost an interchangeable worker. The de-
ceased was of a very charitable DISPOSE
ton and was always ready to help any
one who applied to him for aid whether
financially or otherwise. Surely it can
be said that in his death the community
has met with an irreparable loss. The
funeral which was largely attended by
people from every walk of life throughout
the island took place at II. 80 yesterday
morning from his residence to the Angli-

Tempering anupathy with open-mind-

acting upon instructions of the con-
vention here t. investigate the growth
of the company union" movement,
will endeavor not only to find the OBJ
jectionable features Of the plan, but
will also seek ANY good" there may
be in the plan.
Generally speaking organized labor
Is bitterly opposed to all company
unions and shop representative. plans
on the theory that they were invented
solely AS weapons with which to op-
pose growth of trade unionism. 1t is
regarded by labor leaders as utterly
unlikely that any employer would
ever have organized a union within
his plant if trade unions had never
existed.
Speakers in the convention con-
demned company unions hotly, and a
resolution was adopted empowering
tn" executive council of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor to levy an
assessment against affiliated unions
to oppose company unions and other
instruments of the open-shop move
ment. At the same session, however.
a resolution was passed instructing
the council to make a full inquiry
into the merits as we'll as the sup
posed iniquities of the plan.
Feudalism Plot Charged.
Compulsory dues, collected by
means Of a check.off system-easily

capital is aiming at a new kind of
feudalism, even more brutal than
that of ancient times. when the serf

DETROIT. October 15.-Officers Of

anticipate no important change in re-
lations between the labor organiza-
tions of the United States and Mexico
until an inquiry into the program of
the Mexican organization shall have
Justified abandonment of the policy
thus far pursued in contacts with the
Spanish American labor movement.
The organization. which has deter
mined upon continuing friendly co.
operation with the Mexican fedora
tion until an inquiry directed by the
closing session of the forty-siXth an
nual convention is completed has two
matters before il involving Mexico
for immediate action.
Green Invited to Meeting.
The first IS an invitation to Presi-
dent Green to attend labor meeting
OF leaders from several countries late
in October. The second involves ap-
pointment of joint commission of
the American and Mexican fedora
tions to seek ways and means of curb
ing immigrant smuggling along the
Rio Grande border.
Several new departures in policy
marked the action of the Today con-
VeHClOn just cOnCluQeO.
The executive council for the first
time in the history of the federation
was given blanket authority to create
a special fund by direct assessment.
The fund will be used to resist devel-
opment of local plant unions not af.
filiated with> the federation.
In approving resolution urging
unioniZation of the automobile indus
try, the federation voted also for the
first time. to disregard for the period
the various workers.
The convention went on record as
favoring progressive shortening of the
hours of labor. with the fve-day week
mentioned as an ultimate goal.
Pledge Aid to Agriculture.
Another resolution pledged CO.
operation to agricultural interests in
their legislative program. whenever
such action may be possible.
With a view to reducing produc-
tions. the convention pledged co-opera-
tion to industrial management in mat
ters of plant detail.
The situation will henceforth meas
ure wages in terms of IAN economic
measuring rod" rather than in dollars
alone. and will seek advances COM
mensurate with the increasing per
capita production of workers due to
developments in the mechanical arts.
Eighty-three resolutions and 157
recommendations from the executive
council were acted upon by the con-
venton without a minority report

that his vehicle is doubly obscured ON
