None OF you people ever treat me

not to touch you when you know
I'm wild about you. . d. Your aunt

"Oh, Ted, that's because she

ginning when he cut her short.

ing on her sharply. IT'S all up to

He held them between his fingers

Your Health
How to Keep It.
Causes Of Illness
BY DIR. MORRIS FISHBEIN
Editor journal of the American
Medical Association and Of Hy-
geia. the Health Magazine.

A writer in industrial and engin-
erng chemistry calls attention to a
possible hazard to human life involv-
in the industrial method by which
silks are given additional weight.
Among the substitutes used for
this purpose are lead and tin. Lead
costs approximately one-tenth as
much as tin and this has apparent
ly been a factor in the adoption of
the method OF weighing silk with
tin-lead phosphate instead of tin
tetra-chloride.
1t seems. moreover that silk
weighted with lead salts seems to
deteriorate more slowly than silk
weighted with tin. From the stand
point of health. it seems possible
that lead weighted silk, used partic-
ularly in underwear. by coming into
contact with the various secretions
of the skin. may bring about some
absorption Of lead. Lead is cumu-
lative poison. and many people will
remember the difficulties involved
in the possibility OF lead poisoning
from ethy! gasoline. However. the
view is theoretical. since poisoning
from this source has not been re-
ported.
In addition to the possibility Of
injury to health, lead may be ex-
tracted in benZine baths used by
dry-cleaners so that an occasional
white suit will turn gray when
wool which contains sulphur is
brought into contact with the silk
which contains lead. Lead weight
ed fabrics also tend to turn darker
on exposure to air in which there
may be small amounts Of sulphur.
The editor of Industrial and En-
cheering Chemistry says that he
would prefer tin shirt to a lead
one. In any event, the purchaser,
ought to know whether or not the
material purchased contains danger
GUS chemicals. and there would
seem TO be reason for research rs to
the exact extent Of the hazard.

By and by Bowser lifted his
head. He had heard Farmer Browns
Boy approaching. Immediately he
got to his feet and crept into his
little house. He just didn't want to
be seen there by Farmer Browns
Boy, although there was no reason
why he shouldn't be seen. But, as I
said before, he seems to think that
it is his fault that Old Man Coyote
or Reddy Fox escapes.
Now Little Miss Curiosity was so
sound asleep that she didn't hear
Bowser when he came in and
Bowser was so occupied with his
own affairs that he didn't notice
that there was anybody in the cor
ner of his house He lay down and
pretty soon he was asleep. 1t was
quiet in there and when the little
Chuck awoke she only half awolie.
There was something nice and
warm in there. She Struggled up to
it and soon was asleep again.

with the fact that American capital
ism has never acknowledged that trade
unions have legal right to exist. 1t
must be remembered however that
there is also a powerful subjective
factor at work here-the fact that
American capitlism has observed and
drawn serious lessons for its future
conduct from the extension of the
trade union movement in Europe fol-
lowing the war and the revolutionary
struggles which have arisen there as
the working class realised its in

1T is the political activity of the

the extension of this activity into
direct conflict with capitalist govern

There is the additional motive of

the whole trade union movement, or
joint action by its various sections in
securing better wages and working
conditions or resisting wage cuts, etc.

ARTICLE I

THE Trade Union Bill, the latest
weapon which British imperialism
is trying to forge for use against the
workingclass, has been treated so far
in the American press as a purely
British problem.
1t is exactly the reverse. 1t is the
latest manifestation of the world Of
fensive against the trade unions
which is necessary part of the
capitalist program for repairing the
damages of the world war-called
variously reconstruction, or "stabili-
cation" or decentralization of national
economy" 1t has as it's first OBJ
jective the weakening of working
class organization to the point where
it can no longer resist effectively the
offensive of the capitalists and their
government and prevention Of trade
union participation in working class
political activity.
IT is only in method that the British
Trade Union Bill differs from the
outright fascist control of the trade
unions as in Italy, the control of
the unions thru the activities of
parliamentary reformist leaders as in
France and Germany, or the worker
employer cooperation schemes, legal
lied in the Watson-Parker bill as in
the United States. In the United
States, where the process of decay of
the capitalist system is present only
in subdued form, the methods of at
tack are distinguished under phrase

inevitably decide that it is designed
or calculated ''tO intimidate the COM
munity" or "a substantial section of
IT,"
THE penalties provided for taking
part in an illegal strike range from
a fine of ten pounds ($50) to three
months Imprisonment after convic-
ton in magistrates court to two
years Imprisonment after conviction
following an Indictment.
The language of the bill is that any
person who declares, instigates,
furthers, or takes part" in an illegal
strike is subject to the penalties of
the law.
1t follows that those who speak in
favor of such strike, or who write
in favor of it are equally liable with
strikers.
NEITHER can union, whose strike
Nhas been declared illegal, claim
immunity from suits for damages as
was formerly stipulated in the Trades
Disputes Act Of 1906.
The next portion of the bill deal
ing with the right of scabs supple
m ents the provisions outlawing
strikes. 1t follows logically that if
a strike is illegal that a strike
breaker is a person who is perform
ing a great service for the "com-
munity" and must be accorded the
full protection Of the law.
Under the proposed law the unions
are therefore prohibited from expell-
ing or in any way disciplining a.
strikebreaker-no matter what the
ordinary rules and procedure of the
union may be. If in spite of the law,
a scab is expelled, the courts can
order him reinstated and tie union to
pay him damages.
THE third provision, that dealing
1 with picketing, is one of the most
drastic features of the bill. ANY pick
citing that is carried out, to use
the language of the bill, Gin such a
manner as to be calculated to intimi-
date" is illegal and punishable by
fine or Imprisonment or both.
Not satisfied with the ironclad
character of the phrase quoted the
bill interpets the word intimidation"
to mean:
ITO cause in the mind of a per-
son a reasonable apprehension of
injury to him or to any other mem
Der of the family, or of violence or
damage to any person or property,
and the expression injury includes
injury other than physical or ma
terial injury, and according the ex-.
preston apprehension of injury in
cludes an apprehension of boycott,
of loss of any kind, or of exposure
TO hatred, ridicule or contempt"
Emphasis Mine.)
IT is manifestly impossible under
such conditions to picket legally
