OHIO LABOR
MEET TURNS
'NON-PARTY'
Committee Formed to
"Select Candidates"

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Jan. 19.-The
conference Of the Ohio State Fedora
ton Of Labor held here on Jan. IS and
10 took a most significant step. The
conference was attended by 400 dele
gates from every part of the state and
was presided over by John p. Frey,
president of the State Federation Of
Labor.
In lengthy speech, President Frey
exposed the situation of the workers
in this state. He pointed out how the
state legislature has ignored the work
ers, the members even going so far
as to break their pledge to vote for
the child labor amendment He de-
clared that departure must be made
with the old policy and anew one be
initiated.
The statement issued by the execu-
tive board of the federation entitled
"A Labor Policy for Ohio" was the
basis for the discussion. Several
delegates, took the floor. notably Dele

After attending the meetings for a
few months and finding out how the
thing worked, this worker wanted to
resign. A meeting was called and
the chairman announced that he had
heard that someone wished to resign.
Our representative got UP with an
other worker and handed in his writ

them on the table and said to the
two, "You can leave now" That's a
helluva union, no election for officers

NEW BETRAYAL
BY LEWIS OF
COAL STRIKE
Refuses Withdrawal of
"MGintenGnce"
(speciaI to The DAILY WoRKER1

Especial to The DAILY WoRKER.)
HAZELToN, Pa, Jan. 49, Presi-
dent John L. Lewis and his machine
have again automatically rejected the
demand of the rank and file of the
anthracite strikers that the union call
out the maintenance men. Under the
guise of maintenance work the oper-
ators are mining coal and running the
washeries to furnish coal to break the
strike.
At the meeting of the anthracite
scale. committee, and Lewis with the
tri-district officialdom, the Lewis ma
chine suppressed the militants who
voiced the demands Of District No. /,
as set forth a week ago, and decreed
that no call for withdrawal Of main
tenance men would be issued.
To cover up this treachery the ma
chine tied onto the decision the state
ment that if the operators attempt to
operate the mines before an agree
ment has been reached, then the call
will be issued. This, of course, ig-
nores the fact that the mines, tho not
operating at the full. are being kept
in perfect order for the operators
while they try to starve the miners
into submission and while the men
employed are doing work that is not
maintenance work but plain scabbing.
The general grievance committee of
the Scranton-Wilkesbarre district brot
the demand into the conference.

A scathing attack upon the United

Stop, Union Scabs.
The maintenance men of the Maple
Hill and the Ellangowan collieries
we're stopped ON their way to work
few days since by a crowd Of un-
ion miners. The miners attempted
to convince the maintenance men"
that by working they were assisting
the operators in breaking the strike.
The organized scabs thought other
wise. A disturbance followed. One
miner was struck on the shoulder by
a pick handle and probably has a
broken shoulder as result, while the
rest were chased from the street car.
Street cars that arrived later were
stopped by the union pickets. Planks
were thrown across the tracks which
forced the cars to stop. The last car
went thru the lines without any dis
order, with the exception of a stone
being thrown thru its window.

lost because of dropping lashes and bag
cling of the skin beneath the eyes. The
elder woman was quite eager to correct
these faults She was as DESTROYS of ap-
pearing beautiful as her daughter.
"Lady Diana then asked me what would
be the charge for the work to be per-
formed upon her mother. | told her that
the facial lift would be one thousand dol
lars, as in her case, and that the eye re-
iuvenation would entail an additional
five-hundred-dollar cost, making total
of one thousa q, five hundred dollars for
the work upon the dowagCr duchess, and
grand total for the work upon both ladies
of two thousand five hundred dollars.

81 must say that both Lady Diana and
her mother exhibited splendid courage

former. True, the operation is without
pain. True, there is hardly any blood.
A first incision is made under the hair
line near the temple. The other operation
is concealed behind the ear-bOth opera

The face skin and muscles are draWn.
And while the average patient exhibits
little concern because the eyes are
usually covered and there is no pain.
Lady Diana was entirely different
"She insisted on viewing everything
that was done by holding a hand mirror
before her face. She did not have her
eyes covered.
"I wish to observe the technique, Doc
tor she said. You know, have had con-
siderable nursing experience and am not
at all squeamish. The sight of blood does
not revolt me, and l am not in the least
afraid to see what you are doing to me-

the third day of her treatments, | began
treatment upon the duchess, in order to
make her eyes larger and to rejuvenate
them.
"She realized that the eye is woman's
most compelling charm. Her eyes, of a
beautiful grayish-blue hue, were, as
stated, dimmcd in frame of dropping
laShes and baggng lids and surrounding
skin. She wished a frame of unwrinkled
skin and lashcs upturned. The correction
was done at the private surgery in my
office and upon its completion both ladies',
as well as several of their friends, eX-
pressed their entire satisfaction.
"The dowager duchess then avCrred her
entire willingness to have the facial lift
correction performed at once in my of
flee, in the same manner as was done in
Lady Diana's case.
81 strongly advised against this, stating
to Lady Diana that at Seventy-five, her
mothers advanced age, and considering
the strenuous and absorbing social life
the dowager duchess had been leading
during her stay in Chicago, this was in
advisable.
81 advised that the correction be done
at a hospital and that the dowager duchess
utilize the occasion to take a complete
rest, of which she was sorely in need. This
advice was followed; the dowager duchess
engaged a nurse and entered my service
at The Mother Gabrini Memorial Hospital,
of the Missionary Sisters of the Sacred
Heart, a worldwide Catholic philanthropic
institution. l am the plastic surgeon of
this hospital.
"The hospital records disclose that she
entered the hospital March l6, 1926; that
her nurse was Miss CYCLIC; that a right
and left facial lift was performed by me,
assisted by DR.. Christensen; that it was
performed under local anesthetic, begin
ming at $3.50 p. M, and was concluded at
4 90 o'clock.
