But really when we say sundia1s
IRE old fashioned we mean that
they go back to the very early days
Of civilization, back twenty five
hundred years. For sundials were
known in the time of Ahaz, king Of
Judah in the year 743 B. C. For
this our authority is Isaiah who
nys that the Lord made -the
shadow to move ten degrees back
ward by which it had gone down
on the sundial of Ahaz."
That's real antiquity. and the
knowledge that sundials have been
In use for all these many centuries
makes them more interes ting.
Revival In America
Within the last few years Amer
lean gardeners have become inter
ested in revival Of sundials, and
many New England and Southern
attics have been ransacked for old
examples. Many modern ones,
based on the best Of the old models,
too. have been made. And today
thousands OF modern gardens have
sundials- Fifteen or twenty years
ago a modern garden with a sun
dial was most unusual, and in
those days many persons had never
seen a sundiaL
Simple expedients for marking
time have been used now and
again instead of sundias. In Eng
land some old churches had a noon
mark cut In the foor-a mark
where the sun shone at noon.
These marks were not always alb
solutely accurate, but they gave
the approximate time, and that
was enough. In this country IN
early colonial days noon marks
were carved on the kitchen window
stills so that the busy housewife
could look out the window without
stopping her work and so find out
the time Later simple sundiais
we're fastened to kitchen window
siIls for Just the same reason

stormy applause. He began by analyz-

showed that Leninism was not Rus

Here several speakers pointed out the
significance of Lenin's life and the
lessons that the workers of the world
learned from the Russian revolution.
Herbert Benjamin, district organ

RAILWAY CLERKS
REFUSE TO Obey

Insist on Right to Organ
ize Drivers
Especial to Tho Daily wOrksrS

CINCINNATI, Jan. 27.-(FP)-Sus-
pension of the Brotherhood of Railway
Clerks from the American Federation
of Labor looms as the automatic
aftermath Of the reiterated refusal to
obey the jurisdictional decision Of the
Atlantic City convention.
10000 Clerks In Union.
By unanimous vote the grand ex-
ecutive council Of the railway clerks
declined to turn over to the Interna-
tional Brotherhood Of Transfers &
Chauffeurs the several thousand rail-
way express drivers awarded to the
lteamsters by the American Federation
of Labor convention. The term of the
award as adopted at Atlantic city,
Oct. 10, 1925, included clause for the
suspension of the clerks in 80 days If
they remained refractory. The 80
days if they remained refractory. The
so days expired early in January. Sus-
pension would pull over 10000 railway
clerks out of the federation.
"The grand executive council in
refusing to comply with the decision
Of the American Federation of Labor
is following the specific instructions
of the membership of the brotherhood
as expressed by the convention held
in Kansas City last May" says Phil
E. Ziegler editor The Railway Clerk.
Were we to consider the compare
lively few men involved in this dis
pute and the financial and economic
strength they add to our organization,
as against our continued afiliation with
the federation, we would comply. But
we hold that the primary considera-
ton in the settlement of these juris-
dictional questions should be the well
fare of the workers involved and that
has been ignored in the decision of
the federation.
Organized 1,4oo cities.
ours is a transportation organ
ization specializing in the railroad and
express industry. The teamsters un-
ion represents men outside this field.
TO bring another organization into the
transportation field would simply
make for confusion in the relations
between the carriers and their en-
ployes and make the unions less ef-
fective. We hope some way may be
found by the officers of the federation
to permit our continued afiliation.
Having jurisdiction over express
workers, the right Of our organiza.
ton to continue to represent these
men, whom we organized and have
been representing the past seven
years, should be recognized"
The teamsters have organized ex-
press workers only in 7 large cities
while the clerks have organized them
in l,4OO cities all over the country.

The hopes of this gentry to disrupt
the meeting were shattered, for as

was hardly any standing room left.
This mass meeting surprised even the

After the singing, Comrade Trachten-

a short and concise speech with fire
and vigor
The Pioneers were followed by
Norman Tallentire, district organizer,
who spoke on some Of the essential
lessons that the working class learned
thru Lenin. He brought the meeting
to a stormy applause when he de-
clared that the greatest monument
that could be built for Lenin is a
strong Communist International.
