Il..EASF Ohio
IS Delegates Attend
Conference
tspeeIaI toIThs Daily workerl

MARTINS FERRY, O., March ST.
At meeting or. IS delegates from 80
unions and fraternaI societies, the
Workers (cOmmunist) Party, Young
Workers League, and international
Labor Defense, the Eastern Ohio
Council for the Protection Of the For.
eisn-5orn Workers was formed.

conduct campaign against the bills
now pending in congress proposed by
Representatives AsweII, McCIintIc,
Johnson, and others, providing for the
registration Of aliens.
Murphy Speaks.
H. Murphy, of the Young Workers
League, took up the proposed bills
point by point explaining the various
features in this proposed legislation
thru which the foreign-born would be
subjected to oppression, intimidation
and persecution, and thru which the
trade union movement would be con-
fronted with dangers by the power
placed in the hands Of the employers
to suppress the activities Of the for
eign-born workers in the labor move
ment. Various delegates expressed
the bitter opposition felt among the
membership ofitheir organizations and
the various foreign nationalities of
this section against the vicious pro-
posed legislation.
An executive committee was elect
ed. with the following officers: Chair
man. Frank Seplch; vice-chairman, X.
OBraska; secretary, Jos Kobylak, Jr.;
treasurer, A. Rattaya and trustees,
A. Meyers and Frank Shrama.
More Conferences.
The committee is making plans for
the organization of local conferences
In every locality in the Eastern Ohio
section, and for the holding of mass
meetings in nearby cities. to acquaint
the workers with the vicious charac-
ter Of the proposed legislation. A
resolution was also adopted by the
conference condemning the Aswell
and other similar bills.

By Lucy Lowell

WITH all the talk we hear
w about women and their
careers, It is little wonder that
the housewife sometimes feels
that her life il dull. Glowing
accounts Of women who have
succeeded IN the business game
confront the reader on every
hand. The woman who stays at
home, rearing family, prepar-
ing meals, keeping a house, man
aging a none-too- generous budget,
will often sigh and wonder IL
she Il not being cheated.
If put the same effort into
some business enterprise that ]
put into the keeping Of our home,
/ believe that !, too, would be
numbered among high-salaried
women.
what adventure Is there in
this work-a-day grind, doing the
same things over and over again,
day in, day out?" asked sub
urban wife the other day. ''I
wish l could have a career" she
added.
Her remark was addressed to
a woman friend who had won
laurels in the world Of work out
side the home.
The latter's eyes shone with
longing as she glanced about

land" surface waters collected on
rocky ground with little grass
give the purest supply. but low
land water from Eparsely popu.
lated Hill covered with grass or
bog may also be rendered pure
by storage and filtration. The
reservoirs which large towns
must construct to insure a suffi-
cient supply play their part in
publication. Turbid and impure
flood waters can be by-passed,
and only comparatively clear
water need be collected. The res
ervoirs often collect water of
various compositions from many
different streams and mix and
equaIize 1t. The mud and other
matter in suspension is deposited
and the bacteria die out more or
less rapidly. Sunlight and air
help to bleach the color out of
the water.
Reservoir water Is, however,
not necessarily pure enough to
drink. Fishes and birds are con-
stantly adding their excrement
to the water, and low forms OF
animal and vegetable life abound.
Ponds are dangerous sources Of
water supply. They are usually
fed from the surface Of cultivated
ground, and the water swarTns
with animal and vegetable life
and is often exposed to serious
pollution. No pond should be
used as a drinking supply unless
1t il properly constructed. kept.
clean and protected from fouling
by animals. Attempts to make
pond water available for a small
community have practically always
failed.
The supply from springs is linn
tied. They usually occur in rocks
full of assures, some Of which
may extend to several miles.
It is important also 20 remem-
Der that an underground channel
may receive surface water through
one fissure and the sewage from
a farm yard from another, and
so the supply from all springs
in a country with any settled
population is suspect.
Deep well water is liable to be
the purest Of all forms of natural
water, since it is filtered through
miles of subsoil, but the water
from shallow wells should be
carefully tested before it is used,
and the mouth of the well should
be so protected that no surface
or subsoil drainage can flow
into It.
The best method of publication
is slow filtering through sand.
The water is passed at the rate
Of about 20 gallons per hour
through about sthree feet of fine
sand separated by successive
coarser gravel. Slow sand filtra-
ton is often preceded by storage
for 20 or more days, for the
bacilli of typhoid and cholera die
off rapidly in stored water. 1t
will, however, not adequately
clean polluted water, since it
cannot be depended upon to re-
move all dangerous bacteria.

WHEN MOTHER NEEDS TACT
BY L. Lamar Matthews

age that was causing sheilah to
mtsbehave.
1t is the time in the lives Of
young girls that Is sometimes
called 'ths mean age" And
truth to tell that is good name
for it. But all the scolding or
Furnishing in the world can never
cure 1t. It is the transition
period. when a little girl is on the
border line between childhood and
womanhood. What she needs is
affection and sympathy and toler-
ance.
1t is then that the antagonism
which unfortunately exists be-
tween many mothers and their
= daughters-begins. 1t is, for the
mother herself to decide whether
she prefers exact obedience or
the comradeship that goes with
tact and understanding.
In most cases mothers are still
young and headstrong themselves
when their daughters are ap-
preaching this critical time; and
it is only after it is too late that
they acquire the patience and
judgment that are essential.
Every intelligent mother OF a
grown daughter can look back
over tho latter's teen-age years
and see where certain conflicts
and upheavals could have been
avoided If the woman had been
more generous in her attitude,
more willing to concede minor
points and more forgiving. 1t is
her intense anxiety regarding the
girls conduct that blinds her rea-
son, and so she defeats l-er own
aims.
Resentment and rebellion seeth
in the heart of girl who believes
that her elders are "bossing" her
just because they have her at
their mercy. And it is bound to
find an outlet in one way or an.
other.
Your daughters respect, her
loyalty and her love are too pre-
cious to be sacrificed on the altar
of grim determination to- make
her do your way. When you are
about to issue an ultimatum, stop
and think a minute. There may
be another way to. get the same
results.

GHEILAH was playing on the
~ sidewalk with two other girls
when her mother, seeing that 1t
was time for lunch, called out the
window: "Come on in and eat
your lunch"
Now Sheilah was absorbed in a
game Of hopscotch which she was
about to win, so she called back,
"Just a minute"
"I did not say lin a minute,

So the child reluctantly left her
play and obeyed.
why, mother, you haven't even
started lunch, she protested when
she saw the bare table.
"Well, it will take only a few
minutes"
II could have finished the game
in less time than that" Sheilah
muttered. Then she picked up
piece of candy and had it almost
in her mouth when her mother
whirled around and said: PUT
that candy down. You won't want
a bite of lunch. You are half
sick anyway"
Sheilah sullenly obeyed.
You might begin dressing now"
Mrs. Mcqueen suggested, then we
can go to town as soon as we
have lunch"
II don't want to go to town."
declared the child. "I'd rather
wear my old hat than drag
around all the afternoon trying
to find another one"
Then Mrs. McQueen's mouth
set In firm, straight line and
1t didn't take her long to con-
vince Sheilah that 1t was time to
stop talking and get busy.
And that night she confided to
her husband that Sheilah was, be.
