instance, an excellent year book had
been published, and also an agita-
tional pamphlet addressed to the
teaching profession; an almanac is
in preparation for the coming year.
Poisson tried to prove that love of
peace is underlying his attitude to
the Communists. He declared how
ever, at the same time that the mi
nority cannot be represented in the
delegation to the Stockholm Con-
gress.
Earring the discussion a number of
speakers pointed out that factory
shops are fraught with certain dam
gers and that it is essential to
strengthen the district declarations
and TO increase working capital.

Thereupon Poisson made his re-
port on the activity of the Interna-
tional Cooperative Alliance. In the
course Of it he discussed all the
branches of the Alliances "activitv"
and asserted that the Russian COOP

international Cooperative Alliance
ito a certain political movement" A

PARIS, Oct. 30.-This years con-
gress of the French consumers CO.
operatives was held in Mines. At
the first session Poisson presented
the report of the National Federation
which was proof of the complete
stagnation of the cooperative move
ment. In 1926 as many as 80 con-
sumers' cooperatives were closed
down. A number of delegates criti-
cised the activity of the Central
Board of the Federation. The repre-
sentative of Laon declared that he
could not vote for the report without
reservations, as his cooperative soci-
ETY. considers the propagandist activ-
ity of the federation very inadequate.
Comrade Beuville, the secretary of
the Unitarian Food Workers. Fedora
ton, argued in his speech that the
National Board of the Federation
has not yet got in touch with the
Food Workers Union in spite of the
decisions 'made to this effect at last
years congress nd it is still pressing
in the senate for the repeal Of the law
prohibiting night work in bakeries.

Comrade Pacquereaux invited the
Congress to take I'D the struggle
against the militari1atiou bin, par
ticularly as this bill makes also pro-
vision for the requisition of coopera-
tive stores for war purposes. He also
protested categorically against i'm
perialist intervention in China.
Comrade Boyot protested, on behalf
Of the Ballevilloiso cooperatives,
against revolutionary cooperatives
being deprived of state credits.
Anyway & Year Book
Poisson endeavored to refute the
criticism Of the opposition in his con-
Guiding speech. While compelled to
admit that the cooperatives are going
through a period Of stagnation, he
pointed out that the Federation had
achieved considerable success. For

UNEMPL 0yE) OF
Gil: VELAND TO
MAKE: Demands
Organization Will Call
Conference of Unions

CLEVELAND, Oct. 80. The
unemployed in this city have formed
the Cleveland Unemployed Council.
The situation is very bad. According
to report of William Green, 1858 per
cent of the trade unionists who re-
piled to a QUESTIONABLE of the A. F.
Of /. are out of work. AS the only
trades that are even partly organized
in this city are the building trades,
there is nc way of estimating the
number of unorganized workers who
are cut of a job.
The Unemployed Council was
formed a few days ago and has held
meetings at the Public Square. On
Tuesday, at least $500 came to the
Square to voice their grievances and
make their demands. Men who have
been looking for job and have found
none stood on the stump and told
what they think about the situation.
One man in particular, who recently
returned from the South, and had
been in the World War, was especially
bitter at the meeting and declared
that although he had been a patriot,
he got interested in Sacco and Van
zetti, and now they may call him a
Bolshevik, but he does not care.
Demand City Work.
The Unemployed Council has put
up the following demands that it in
tends taking to the City Council:
opening of public works, free NUM-
cipal kitchens for the unemployed,
unemployed compensation and remis-
sion of rents during the period of
unemployment. The Council has an
executive committee and has elected
]. Foley as its secretary.
The Unemployed Council intends
to call a conference Of trade unions,
fraternal and working class organiza-
tions generally for the purpose of
working out ways and means of pro-
viding for the unemployed and for
linking up the trade unions and the
workers who still have a job with
the trade unions and the workers who
still have a job with the jobless.
In few days they intend to place
their demands before the city author
ities and ascertain whether the poll
ticins who are in the midst of the
election campaign, with the sole issue
city manager or mayor-whether
these politicians know that there is
unemployment of a grave extent in
the city.

Ten years before the gentleman had

COWS SHOULD HAVE
WARM DRINK IN WINTER

Successful winter dairying calls
for an adequate supply of water at
temperature that will not paralyze
the entire digestive tract of the COW
when she drinks.
Water is equally as important as
feed,' says DR.. c. H. Eckles, chief
of the dairy division of the University
of Minnesota. "A COW milking 80
pounds daily drinks close to 100
pounds of water every "a hours.
Sometimes watering the cows means
turning them out of the barn once
day to drink what they can stand
of ice colo water. Can we imagine
a cow which weighs around HOO
pounds drinking 100 pounds, or near
ly one-tenth of her weight, of ice
water at once? OF course she will
not do it and consequently will not
give her owner 80 pounds of milk
even though she has the ability to
produce this much and has feed en-
ough AS we'll.
The milk flow may be cut down
quicker by lack of water, or by the
use of ice water, than by poor feed.
Individual drinking cups in my judg-
ment pay more dividends to the user
than almost anything else in the line
of modern barn equipment. Even
If the water is not warmed in the
cups the cow will take such small
amounts at time, so long as it is
above freezing, that no harm results
from drinking it cold.
IF cows must be watered from a
tank outdoors and under conditions
which mean ice water, it will pay to
install a water heater of some kind.
1t is much cheaper to warm the
water with fuel than by giving the
cow extra grain to warm it within
her body"
