International Labor
Office Asks Permit
to Make Suggestion

THE HAGUE, July 1S.-Whether
the International Labor Organization
(office) of the League of Nations may
draw up and propose legislation for
bidding bakery proprietors to work
nights, in order TO make possible the
regulation of night work in bakeries
by employees, has been put up to
the Permanent Court Of International
Justice at The Hague. The so-called
World Court is not asked to make a
definite ruling, altho the l. L. o. is
confident that it has this power.
The issue arises from the fact that
limiting of working hours of bakery
employees in small establishments has
been found virtually impossible un-
less proprietors are likewise regulat-
ed as to their own hours of work in
the shops. France and Uruguay have
enacted laws of this kind, while Hol-
land retained it when repeal was pro-
posed, because both the employers
and workers organizations demanded
that the prohibition against night
work be maintained against both
alike.

BRUSSELS, July 1S.-The Belgian
chamber of deputies and the senate,
by a majority rendered possible by
the votes of the socialist party mem

The royal dictator will immediate

MOUNDS or WHEAT
LIE EXPOSED TO sun
AND Rain IN KANSAS

TOPEKA, Kans., July 10. - Des-
perate appeals for freight cars and
storage facilities are being made by
the wheat growers of Kansas. The
crop has been so large and buying
so slow that great mounds Of wheat
lie exposed to sun and rain along
the railroad lines.
Every available storage facility
has been used by the farmers to pro-
teet their crops. The present crop
is considered the fourth largest Yield
In the history of Kansas.
Reapers are still working in the
fields gathering in grain. Many Of
the farmers in their frantic appeals
for freight cars to bring their wheat
to storage facilities and TO the mark
ct point out that II rain comes while
they are awaiting these cars their
labor for the entire year will have
gone to naught.
Due to the extraordinary large
yield prices of wheat are fast tumb-
ling. A number Of farmers that are
a little better OFF are making plans
to hold the wheat until prices 90 up.
Those that need the money lmme-
dately are selling their wheat at
ridieulously low prices.

In Nebraska

A new creamery is to be built at
Aurora, Nebraska, by the Farmers
Creamery Company, Superior, for the
benefit of the farmers in the Aurora

has never failed to pay interest on
stock and since 1928 has paid patron
age dividends Of 215 cents a pound
on butter fat each year. 1t has also
built up reserves and surplus of $685.

WASHINGTON, July IS. - Employ

UNITES TO AID
COAL MINERS
Wild Scenes Take Place
In Parliament
BIZ bill ROSS. Eederated Press.


LONDON.-(FP)-The British gov
ernment's determination to crush the
locked out miners by legally increas-
ing the hours of labor to and by a
false pretense at recognizing the min
ing industry only solicited the Brit
ish movement.
Assail Miners Leaders.
Every effort is made to paint labor
men red. Personal histories are be-
ing printed to prove that the men
leading the miners wish to play the
part of little Lenins." The rank and
file responds by coming to mass meet
ings addressed by Secy. A. j. Cook
or Pres. Herbert Smith, 10000 and
10000 strong, and endorse their stand
amid great enthusiasm.
Wild Scenes in Parliament.
Wild scenes took place in parlia-
ment when legislation against the min
ers was forced through. The Labor
Party pointed out that the S-hour bill
for the mines was the most reaction
airy social legislation in the last hun
dred years. This bill makes the Brit
ish miners workday the longest of
any miners in Europe, with the excep-
tion of Poland But the miners as
sert that they will pay no attention to
the law.
. The legislation to reorganize the min
ing industry is scorned by labor as
no provision is made for nationalist
ton of mining royalties as recon-
mended by the coal commission.
Need Relief.
British labor is seeking all relief
possible for the miners and their fami-
lies. They also stress the slogan
1000 organization in every indus
try" AL trades councils and local
Labor parties are carrying on propa-
ganda and collecting funds. But the
coal shortage is being felt in every
industry and thousands are thrown
out of work every week.
Pressure is brought on boards of
guardians and independent charitable
organizations to curtail or discontinue
relief for women and children in the
mining areas. Some organizations
circulate false reports denying that
there is much suffering among the
children. One of the anti-labor sheets
says: "If the miners wives and chill
dren were in any real danger the min
ers have the remedy in their own
hands," The paper says the remedy
is to submit.
Fight Wage Reductionsl
British miners feel that they fight
not only for themselves, but for the
standards of the whole British work
ing class. If their wages are reduced
and hours increased, the German and
other coal miners will follow, in order
to meet international competition,
they also show.

BELGIAN DICTATORSHIP

If the socialists had decided
against the dictatorship Of the king,
the bill would have failed. Their
decision to support the dictatorship,
not Of the workers but of the king,

which parliament itself practically
abdieates.
