Do Not Lose Confidence
Secretary Mellon of the United States Treasury Says
There Are Many Investments One Can
Make With Perfect Safety
By ELWOOD LLOYD

Sometimes as We scan the figures
showing the vast amounts OF money
lost each year by the American peo-
nle through unwisc investments, we
are prone TO wonder why confidence is
not shattered in investment possibili-
tics of all kinds.
The truly saving thought is that not
withstanding the tremendous amount
of these losses. they are, after all,
but a very small percentage of the to-
tai the people of the United States
place in constructive movements. 1t
is well. Ninety per cent OF all bust
ness is founded on confidence, and if
this were to fail our progress would
become a disastrous cropper.
Andrew Mellon, secretary of the
United States treasury. gives poignant
warnings against the various forms
of chicancry rampant in the pseudo
financial world in a little booklet
entitled. GLOW to Save Your Saw
ings." These II warnings might al
most make the average investor du-
bious as TO putting his surplus into
any of the many offerings available.
However, as q counterbalance TO these
negative thoughts. Mr.. Mellon clarifies
the situation by advising against pes
simism. lie says:
DO not become pessimistic and
think that all men are swindlers or
sharpers. The great majority Of
American businessmen are straight
forward, considerable and honest. If
they were not. our great business in
situations would crumple rapidly.
Among the nations of the world Amer
lean business is looked up TO as a
model of fair dealing. rugged honesty,
and industrial realism.
There are many investments that
you can make safely. Generally speak
ing. bonds are safer than stocks.
Suppose you buy corporations
bond. That corporation pledges it
self. its resources, the factories it
owns. and its earnings TO secure its
promise TO pay you back the money
you have invested. plus the interest
OH the bond. when due.
In the same way, if you buy
bond issued by some government. or
Il state or county or city. you have a
solemn pledge that it will make good |
lis promise TO you backed by all its
resources. No sound corporation or

TEXTILE BARONS
Reject OFFER
OF MEDIATION
Bosses Refuse to Talk
Terms With Strikers
Especial to The Daily worker,

PASSAlC, N. j., March e-AItho he
previously announced that the mill
owners were ready at all times to
discuss grievances Of the 1900
striking mill workers here, Col. chas.
F. Il. Johnson, spokesman Of the mill
owners rejected the offer Of Rabbi
Stephen S. Wise's committee Of four
to discuss terms Of settlement.
His reputation of the offer followed
a decision by the strikers committee
to accept.
Colonel johnson denounced the u
fer as futile" in that it IS "Commun-
stic" He said in part: 4 don't think
that we can see the value OF the pro-
posed Intervention nor how it would
be useful in ending trouble caused
and maintained by Communist agita-
tors entirely outside the ranks of the
workers" ~ es,..s
Col Johnson's refusal while antici-
pated by the strike committee was re-
ceived with frank surprise in conserv-
alive circles since the impartial COM
mittee's offer was regarded as the
only medium for an early con-
clusion to the controversy.
Albert Weisbord, organizer for the
United Front Committee who is lead
ng the strike here. said he was not
urprised when he learned of the mill
owners refusal. "Col. Johnson will re-
ject any offer that threatens to keep
organized employees in the Botany
Mill" he said.
In the formal letter of acceptance
sent to the offer to act as represent
atives of the strikers in settlement
proceedings by DR.. Stephen S. Wise.
the Reverend John Howard Melish,
Paul U. kellogg and John Lovejoy
Elliot, the general strike committee
reserved for itself the right of reach
ing final decision on the issues in con
troversy. The letter pointed out that
the "obstinacy of the mill owners,
their refusal to meet with the regular
representatives of the workers for no
valid reasons whatsoever" has placed
the responsibility for the continuance
Of the strike upon the mill owners.
The committee also announced that
it would be ready to meet the mill
owners of Passaic at any conference
which Governor Moore might call in
discussing his offer to act as mediator
for the strike.

L.L.G. VII. TO
ORGANIZE THE
UNORGANIZED
Committee of 500 Mem
berS to Handle DriUe

The Chicago joint board Of the In
ternationaI Ladies' Garment Workers.
Union which was recently elected has
decided to wage an organization cam
paign to clean up the nonunion shops
in this city. The election Of major
ity Of prouresslves to the joint board
promises to make this campaign a
real stride forward in the organiza-
tion Of the garment workers.
The campaign is to be started by
the selection of a committee of 500
members of the union. This commit
tee will insure the cooperation of the
union membership in the drive and
constitute force which will reach
every nonunion garment worker in
Chicago.
Joint Board Issues Statement.
The following statement has been
issued by the officials of the Chicago
joint board:
With the installation of the new ad-
ministration in the Chicago Ladies'
Garment Workers Union, new spirit
is felt This administration has been
selected after the convention which
was held in Philadelphia last Decem-
per, where all those expelled and sus-
pended were re-admitted to the union,
and their rights restored.
The new joint board was installed
Friday, Feb. 10, and at its second
meeting on Friday. Feb. 26. It already
had report from the temporary or
san.zation committee which was
established during the short visit of
International President Sigman about
a month and a half ago. This COM
mittee recommended that they start
an immediate big drive to organize the
unorganized dressmakers, and for that
purpose a committee of 500, picked
from the shops, be organized. This
recommendation of the committee was
unanimously adopted with great en-
thusiasm. The interest shown by
those present proved conclusively the
determination of each and everyone
Of them that there must be 100 per
cent union in every shop where ladies'
garments are made.
Our union today is in much bet.
