FORMER CLUB MEMBER
PROVES GOOD LEADER

Miss Sethryn Siebers of Casper
has an enviable record in club work
in Natrona county. For five years
she was a member and a very eff
ficient WORKER in a All club. For
two successive years, as a member
of a demonstration team she rep
resented her county at the State
Fair and alse won a trip to the an
nual club roundup at the state
university at Laramie. In 1928 for
excellence in her work she was de-
clared county champion, thereby
winning a trip to the International
club congress at Chicago. Here is
where the really interesting part of
the story begins. While Sethryn has
completed all the club work offered
by the Extension Service, she was
not ready to quit. She had receiv-
ed valuable training, she had been
the recipient of prizes and trips
from her county, she owed some
thing to her community and would
repay by passing on to- others the
thing she had learned.
She became local leader OF a club
and carried the work through to
a successful conclusion. Last fall
h assumed the leadership of two
sewing clubs and for six months
h has given an ~-vening a week to
the training of these clubs in the
fundamentals of sewing. The clubs
will complete their work as 100
per cent clubs June LIST when a
style show will be held in Casper
and the garments made by the
members will be worn and display
ed.
Club work reaches its maximum
goal when its members learn and
put into practice some useful thing
and get the spirit of passing their
knowledge on to others.

MUCH DEVELOPMENT OF
WATER POWER BEING
MADE in THE STATE

The signing of a contract at
Douglas. Wyoming, yesterday be-
tween the Mountain States Power
company, United States Reclama-
ton Service. and the City of Doug
las will no doubt prove to be one
of the outstanding events in our
state for the present year. The
Mountain States Power company.
a thoroughly reliable and influen-
'tial company, with strong eastern
backing, is constructing a high vol
tage electric transmission line from
the famous Guernsey dam and will
be in a position not later than No
vember list to furnish power for
the entire North Platte valley.
This project has been worked
cut by the state and United States
Reclamation service and is one of
the earliest pet schemes of our
present Governor, Frank C. Emer-
son. he having several year ago
fathered the idea of irrigating this
fertile valley through the medium
of electric pumping units, and by
reason of his close study of the
possibilities of irrigation applied to
this particular project, has advo-
Gated the development consistently
and continuously, and as a result
the counties of Converse, Platte and
Goshen will benefit greatly thereby.
Substations will be installed along
the transmission line so that cleo
trio energy will be available to
all DESTROYS of taking advantage of
this unusually cheap power.
The city of Douglas secured a
very great reduction in their COM
mercial lighting rates and also a
very desirable contract for street
lighting. The newly constructed
bridge on the outskirts of Douglas
will also be Illuminated from this
same power. 1t is expected that
Casper, G%lenrock, Parkerton, Grin
Junction. Glendo and other cities
will later take advantage of this
cheap power. This should and will
no doubt mean much to Converse
county and the North Platte val
ley.

Bronze, Iron Workers
Push Ahead for Union

Despite threats of physical vio-
lence. organizers of the Inside Iron
and Bronze Workers Union are still
persuading workers of the Globe Iron
Workers, Walton Ave. the Bronx, to
join the union. Organizers Kern and
Powers have been threatened by
Brodsky, the boss, and his sons with
assaults by police and gangsters if
they appeared around the plant.
The Brodskys were particularly
vicious last year during the general
strike.
The operation of the Dawes plan in
Germany, driving down wages and
forcing workers to migrate to Ameri-
ca, is halting organization activities
here. The need for the fight on an
international, as well as a local basis,
is emphasized by the iron workers
plight.

THAYER BRANDED
UTTERLY UNF AIR
AS TRIAL JUDGE
Defendants "Bastards"
He Said in Trial

BOSTON, May 5.--Five affidavits
and one statement were submitted to
Governor Fuller yesterday with the
petition Of Sacco and Vanzetti for
justice and a review Of their case.
They impeach the impartiality of
Judge Webster Thayer, the trial
judge, and show him to have been vio-
lently prejudiced against the two
workers. The affiants are:
John Nicholas Beffel, we'll known
newspaperman, formerly of FEEDER
ated Press.
Robert Benchley, dramatic editor
of Life.
Mrs. Lois B. Rantoul Of the Great
er Boston Federation Of Churches.
Frank P. Sibley, Of the Boston
Globe.
Mrs. Elizabeth Bernkopf, reporter.
Sibley covered the Dedham trial for
his newspaper. He recounts numer-
Gus expressions Of prejudice by
Thayer against the attorneys for Sac
co and Vanzetti, including "those
damn fools" and "long-haired anar-
chists from California" In another
instance, during consultation of coun-
sci and Judge, Thayer told the court
stenographer to "get the hell out of
here"
Would Throttle Press.
Thayer tried to throttle Sibley
and other reporters by denying state
ments attributed to him in the press
and by debating news policy.
Benchley tells of conversations
with Loring Goes, Worcester, Mass.

.Thayer. Goes reported to Benchley
in great hilarity that "Web" had been

"those bastards down there" refer
ring to Sacco and Vanzetti.
'I'll Hang En-"
Goes told him that Thayer was ex-
cited about "that bunch of parlor
radicals rtying to get these guys off
and trying to bring pressure on the
bench" and that he would show them
and would get those guy hanged"
"No Bolsheviki can intimidate me-"
Thayer is quoted as saying while
humping his chest.
Goes denied today that he had made
these remarks to Benchley, but there
is the affidavit of the dramatic editor
of Life against the mere statement
of a Worcester business man who is
a pal of "Web."
HOpelessly Biased.
Mrs. Lois Rantoui declares that
Judge Thayer twice discossed the
case with her while it was in pro-
gress. At both times he deframed
defendants and witnesses, showing an
absolute lack Of judicial fairness. It
Judge Thayer twice discussed the

trial.
Beffel recounts how Thayer gave
an Associated Press man copy of
his charge to the jury, but afterwarC
omitted important sections when he
actually read it. The prepared copy
however was widely quoted in the
press, with allusion to "our boys over
there" in France and much flag
waving. Mrs. Bernkopf's affidavit is
much like Mrs. Rantoul's, swearing
to Thsyer's unrestrained prejudice in
intimate discussions of the case.

treasurer Of Boston is member of

servative. He declares he is firm in

Defeat UNITY AT
HEADGEAR UNIONS
CONVENTION HERE
Rights Beat Measures
For Amalgamation

Further commendation of the pol
icies of the reaetionary leaders of the
American Federation Of Labor was
given yesterday at the convention of
the Cloth Cap, Hat & Millinery Work
ers' international Union which has
been in session all week at Beethoven
Hall, asst 5th Street.
The convention voted down a reso-
luton proposing to spur the A. F.s of
L. into some action on trade union
amalgamation. and it went on record
as feeling satisfied that the Fedora
ton was progressing just as fast as
Is possible and advisable along this
line.
Altho the A. F. of L. at its 1912
convention voted to adopt a policy of
amalgamation of the trade union in
various industries, nothing has ever
been done in the matter. A resolu-
tion was introduced at the capmak-
ers' convention calling upon the A.
F. of L. to take the necessary steps
to effect this amalgamation program,
and urging as first step the calling
of a conference of various interna-
tional unions This resolution was
voted down, and the convention de-
clared its belief that the A. F. of L.
was "doing its best"
World Unity Real Issue.
Heated discussion among the dele
gates also followed the report of the
resolutions committee on a resolution
proposing "that this convention en-
dorse the efforts of the General Coun-
ell of the British and Russian Union
to establish worldwide trade union
unity, and instruct our General Exc
cutive Board to fully participate in
and encourage all such efforts"
Very frankly Delegate Golden, who
is chairman of this committee, stated
that they reported against this reso-
luton because they did not want to
have anything to do with Anything
that smacks or smells of the Third
international. The Red Trade Union
International is part of the Third
International. We do not want to give
anyone chance to say we are con-
nected with or have any part in the
Third International"
For this reason, they recommended
emitting all the workers of Russia
from any program of world trade
union unity. They voted finally to
urge the A. f. of L. to cooperate with
the workers of all other lands, and
to join the Amsterdam International
as a means of bringing about unity.
But the trade unions of that country
where there is government of work
ers, Soviet Russia, the capmakers'
convention fears and will not Join
hands with.
Discuss Union Paper.
At yesterday afternoons session, a
resolution was introduced proposing
to abolish the union paper, "The
Headgear Worker" in order to use
this money for organization purposes,
so the resolution stated. There was
vigorous objection to this proposal,
and it was finally voted down by
large majority.
Inc speakers at the convention m
cluded DIR. Paul Abelson, impartial
chairman of the fur industry, who
talked of making haste slowly"
which is always the admonition of
President William Green and other
A. F. of L. officials in talking to
unions which have progressive ideas.

the police court. The attorneys for
the international Labor Defense
hoped to procure these late yester-
day afternoon and be able to present
them in court this morning. If an
appeal is granted Moskowitz can be
taken out of Welfare Island prison
on bail.
The injustice of this heavy SEN
tence is shown by the case Of l. Stein
berg, who was arrested in another
section of the city on the same charge
