The motion picture then illustrates
Toms speech by showing the differ
ence between the union and the nom
union man going from and returning
home. There is quite a difference.
One is fatigued TO the point of ex-
haustion because of the long workday
while the other is strong and vigor-
Gus because he had enjoyed an eight
hour day.
A picture showing the exploitation
of child life, where many little tots
are seen entering non-union factories
where they were employed at meager
wages, follows.
"lt is only when you realize your
power which will come to you through
trade unionism and the purchase of
union labelled goods that you will gain
for these children their rightful heri-
tage," said Tom, "and for your dollar
rightly spent you can purchase for
them this condition"

Old Age Pensions Again
to Fore As State
Legislatures Convene
By International Labor News Service.

By International Labor News Service.
Indianapolis, Ind, Dec. 2S.-Now
that State Legislatures in many States
are beginning sessions the first of the
year, the interest in the question of
old age pensions has again come to
the front and there is Indications that
labor bodies will swing into action in
an effort to obtain favorable State
laws in respect to pensions for the
aged instead of using the archaic sys-
tenn of poor infirmaries.
The United Mine Workers commit
tee which has been at work on the
subject for two or three years, and
which obtained some favorable re-
suits, hopes to make further impress
sions on legislative bodies.
The question of organizing and
maintaining homes for the aged by
labor unions is being considered by
the BARRIERS ! International Union,
which is voting from time to time on
propositions in connection with nome
for aged and infirm BARRIERS as well
as on the question of an old age
pension.
The United Brotherhood of Carpen-
ters and Joiners last fall had up.
proposition as to whether to sell Its
land holdings in Lakeland, Fla, on
which the site of the home for aged
carpenters is situated, the money thus 1s
derived to be the nucleus of an old
aoe pension fund. The union bought
the property for 100000, but it has
doubled in value and is regarded as
real asset to the union.
The matter of selling was put to
referendum vote and the meHoeIs
voted about two and hall TO one
against selling. The membership DC.
lieved that the union could take care
/ of more members in a better way oy
the use of the home than by the old
age pension plan, for the present az
least.

Urges Seasonal Job
Offices to Help
Part Time Workers
By international Labor News Service.

BY international Labor News Service
Washington, ID. c.. Dec. 2S.-ln his
report TO Congress on the activities
OF the United States Employment
Service, Secretary of Labor Davis
says: The report of the farm labor
division shows the usefulness of such
sn agency as the United States Em.
,ployment Service in dealing with
transient labor. The farm labor prob
lem Is only part of the larger one
which needs solving-the problem of
providing employment between sea-
sons in seasonal occupations.
Some people seem TO deplore that
We have seasonal labor. and when II
moves about. sometimes undirected or
misdirected from place To place, cali
such workers 'hoboS. II is unfertu-
nate that This type of labor should
have to drift. for seasonable labor Is
necessity; in the very nature OF
things, harvest time comes and goes;
but in the United States, with its
diversified crops and wide season
range, there Is always a demand for
labor somewhere.
This Is true, however, also in Ger
tain industries that are not affected
with the change in seasons. Some in
dustries are SO oyerdeveloped that six
months production sufrices for a
years supply. Instead of spreading
the six months work over whole
year of three-day weeks. this labor
ought to be punched and then direct
ed to other industries, where similar
conditions prevail, for employment
during the remainder of the year.
1.-THE establishment of seasonal em-
ployment offices would make possible
the furnishing of exact information
regarding the location of demand for
seasonal workmen and would obviate
many hardships encountered by seek
ers of part-year employment

Chamber. After saying he could not
go to Geneva for the special league
meetings leaving behind him such an
| atmosphere as seemed to prevail in
Parliament. he paid tribute to NJ
Doumer, who, he pointed out, also had
an important debt settling mission in
London next week.
DeputleS Uuard Selves.
The deputies, however. recalling
that the last election was decided by
dissatisfied taxpayers, voted in their
own electoral interests, regardless of
what might happen at Geneva. Lon
don or elsewhere.
The fate of the ministry was sealed
when the leaders Of the Conservative
minority announced that they were
unwilling to substitute themselves TOR
the government Radical-Socialist ma
Jority and vote unpopular legislation,
when the government failed to take a
sufficiently energetic attitude to bring
its own supporters into line.
After presenting his resignation to
President Doumergue at 7 o'clock this
morning, Premier BRAND took a few
minutes rest and then conferred with
members of his official staff as to
whether he should go to Geneva.
The President was in similar di-
lemma, as he was due to leave dur.
ing thee morning for Lyon to inaugu-
rate the fair. The situation obliged him
to set a precedent in absenting him
self. as head of the state. from the
capital during a cabinet crisis or to
disappoint NJ. Herriot, on WHOSE in
sistent demand he had agreed TO open
this years Lyon fair.
He finally concluded that it would de-
lay matters little, If at all. to allow
the deputies the week end to think
over the consequences OF their vote
before beginning his consultations for
the formation of a new cabinet. 1t
was announced that he would begin
the consultations upon his return from
Lyon tomorrow.
The better part of the resigned cabi-
net accompanied the President to the
station and Premier BRAND had
short conference with him in the
presidential car.
The unprecedented circumstances
under which the crisis opens has non.
plused the most inveterate prognosti-
Gators and there is some talk of neces-
sity Of NJ. BRAND remaining at the
head of the government, or at least at

and that Congress must legislate for
all of the people.
For the best interests of American
citizens, / urge you to take mega
tive attitude on this measure" Mr..
Leach concluded.
Representative Rathbone, Repub-
lican, of Illinois injected the comment
that Congress has no power to legis-
late along this line anywhere else
than in the District of Columbia. 1t
is purely local legislation, he said,
and so fears that it might lead to
Sunday blue laws elsewhere are
groundless, he argued.
DR.. Martin said that this question
is to be decided not by any denomina-
ton or organization to suit it's wishes
but by the Nation itself. Representa-
tive Mcleod. Republican, of Michigan.
chairman of the subcommittee asked
Dr.. Martin II in city the size of
Washington. which has fewer crimes
and atrocities than any city of sim
liar size. such drastics legislation
would improve the morals Of the
people. When it was suggested that
Michigan had a more drastic law, Mr..
Mcleod stated that this was not true,
for the Michigan Sunday blue law Is
not enforced.
Or. Martin said that opponents OF
this legislation are trying to divorce
the Government from all religion
that they would oppose the President
ana members of Congress taking an
oath of office: that they would oppose
opening sessions Of Congress with
prayer, etc.
Organizations Cited.
Mr.. Mcleod asked just whom he
meant, and DIR. Martin named the
Seventh Day Adventists Religious
Liberty League and the Anu-Blue
Laws Association. When Mr.. Mcleod
challenged DR.. Martin that there had
been no such proposals made by these
organizations at the hearings. Dr
Martin replied that ito be loglcal
they would have to oppose these re
ligious practices.
DR.. Martin said that those who con
tended that the Sunday laws are uD
constitutional have a ready relief by
going to the court and having them
declared unconstitutional.
Mr. Mcleod stated that at tonight
hearing decisions are to be presented
showing that in IS States the courts
have declared Sunday blue laws un
constitutional.
Questioned by Mr.. Gilbert. Dr.
Martin said that enforcement of the
Sunday law in Pittsburgh had not
had deleterious effect on the morals

RELIGIOUS DISPUTE
Opponent of Pending LegisIa.
ton Pleads for Minority.
Supporter of Bill Heard.

The District Commissioners and
representatives OF the three business
mems association in Washington have
been invited to testify this evening on
the Lakford Sunday blue law bill.
when hearings are continued in the
caucus room of the House Office Build
ing before the Judiciary subcommittee
of the House District committee.
The hearings this morning were con-
sumed by two witnesses, Rev. &. V.
Leach. representing the Religious Lib
erty Association of eastern Pennsyl-
vania, himself a Seventh Day Adven-
tist, and DR.. r. II. Martin, director
Of Sabbath day observance Of the
Presbyterian Church of the United
States.
Mr.. Leach declared this measure is
class legislation, pointing out that
there are four classes of citizens, some
who keep Sunday, some who keep no
day, some who keep Saturday and
some who keep Friday. He quoted
from the register of debates a de.
cision from group Of Congressman
after a hearing on similar legislation
Of 1926. designed to stop the trans
portation and delivery of the United
States mail on Sunday.
Sees Injustice to Minority.
1t is great American principle
that the majority has no right to i'm.
pose its will on the minority in such
matters, Mr.. Leach argued. He en-
phasized that, while this measure ap-
plies to the District of Columbia. il
has national aspect, and the fact
that great. powerful religious organi-
cations have come here sponsoring the
measure shows il has a strong ma.
tional aspect.
Questioned by Representative Gil.
bert, Democrat, of Kentucky whether
the Sunday law in Philadelphia has
developed backroom gambling. crap.
shooting and other unmentioned evil
practices, Mr.. Leach said that from
his own observance he would say that
1t had.
Such law in the District of Co
lumbia would set a dangerous prece-
dent for the future, Mr.. Leach con
tended. Tie urged the subcommitte
to bear in mind that it was not a rep.
resentative body of the people of the
country that appeared at these hear
ings. but that it was a religious dis
pute engaged in by orga niZed groups
