Un0rganized Plumbers
Hold Meet Tomorrow

All unorganizaS plumbers are in
vited to attend a meeting tomorrow
night, 8 p. m. at the Church of All
Nations, 9 Second Ave. Immediate
steps to improve conditions viii be
taken up.
The General Association of Jobbing
and Alteration Plumbers, who have
announced the meeting, is a recently
formed organization Of workers who
had been left unorganized in the
past. As a result the conditions in the
trade are unbeliveably poor. Unem-
ployment is severe and regular. The
most vicious extremes of the speed
up system have been established.
While the workers in the trade are
frequently among the most skilled in
the building trades, their pay is ap-
proximately one-half that received by
the organized trades workers.

ON The DEATH MASKS OF SACCO, VANZETTI

All his years of agony were not in vain. All his dark
hours in the death-house not in vain He did not
forgive his judges and aiors at the last; he never
forgave capitalism But he forgave the revolution which
had chosen him for of its martyrs; which had led
him to the electric chair he sure it was not in vain
The children stare the two significant masks and
go away thoughtfuly. They viii grow up and remem-
ber And the workers who file by soemnly will re-
member. And history will remember and this crude
gilt workers hall will be remembered
Six workers, men and women, stand constantly as
guard of honor each side of the platform. They
dressed in vivid red bouses There any number of
flowers, red roses and carnations, banked about the
masks. These come from different unions and labor
organizations The smell of the dying flowers fills the
room.
There is red bunting and touches of black. There is
memorial sculpture, with square workers. fist jutting
of it. There is red everywhere-brght brave red
of the revolution And dozen cops swing their clubs
idly and lounge about marveng at this strange solemn
atmosphere.
The workers go by slowly, staring thoughtfuy at the
masks. They all day and night some of them
before going to work, others weary after day in the
shops. There are many school children thousands of
them. 1t spectacle for them; everyone the East
Side has heard of Sacco and Vanzetti and they are
curious.
There are almost million people the East Side,
and it is safe say the vast majority of them,
when not radical have been stirred by the legal murder
of Sacco and Nanzett They may not understand the
broad issues involved, but with proletarian in
stinct they feel the injustice meted out to two fellow
workers. two ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS in the Promised Land.
The children gaze with They will talk about
this many day. They will remember these names, and
when they grow up the dim seeds planted during these
weeks will grow into something red and daring this
bunting.
The death masks are white and still under the stare
of so many eyes, Sacco, in death in life, has his
scornful defiant smile of brave worker. There was
humor in this he sat down in the electric chair

Perjury Trial Of
Rabbi BuChIGT MAY
Be Finished Today

Today will probably see the close
of the trial of Rabbi Samuel Buch-
Ter secretary of the dock depart
ment, who is accused of perjury be-
fore the Grand Jury when he was
called for questioning concerning the
raising Of funds for the Jewish
Pennsylvania Hospital.
Buchler, who is president of the
Hospital Committee, came in for in
vestigation by the postal authorities
because Of his handkerchief and pen
ell drives which asked for two dollar
donations for the hospital. On the
stand yesterday, during his. trial in
the United States District Court, he
was unable to explain why he had
not produced the books and records of
the hospital when the government de-
manded them; but he insisted that he
had at all times told nothing but the
truth in answer to the Grand Jury's
questions concerning his charity" ac-
tivities.
Rabbits Claims Denied.
Buchler claimed Yesterday that he
never had any official connection
with James r. Klemas, who is now
serving a jail sentence for a charity
fraud for crippled children. This is
direct contradiction of Klemas'
statement that he paid Buchler $500
for. the privilege of conducting, a
drive in the city of Baltimore for the
Pennsylvania Hospital.
Final arguments by both attorneys
in this case will be made at the open
ing of this mornings session and the
case will then go to the jury.

EARLY GRASS
COSTLY FEED.
EXPERTS SAY

Strange as it may seem, the ra-
ton that most dairymen figure costs
them nothing is likely to prove the
most expensive feed they could buy
for their cows. Experts point to
this fact in warning owners against
turning their cows out on pasture
too early in the season.
There are two reasons Early
grazing more often than not causes
heavy damage to the pasture itself,
and it is sure to result in a serious
loss of milk unless a regular grain
ration Is continued along withgrass.
It is natural that dairymen
should seldom think about pasture
as an item of expense. 1t is time
honored practice to turn cows out
early in the season and keep them
out late. Early spring grass looks
tempting, palatable and plentiful,
and surely it is not economy to let
free food lie idle.
But the truth is, pastures in early
spring have not attained a growth
that will stand constant grazing.
The young grass shoots are tender;
close cropping, and the trampling
of hoofs brushes and kills the roots.
1t is estimated that dairymen who
permit cattle to Craze on new
spring grass may lose at least one
third of the value of the pasture for
the entire year.
Yet, as experts point out, loss of
milk is even more important. Cows
enter the pasture season after a
winter on a liberal ration of grain.
The change from that to pasture
grass, which, though bulky, is from
one-half to three-quarters water, is
not going to keep up the milk flow
beyond a very short period.
The real object of summer feed
ing is to build and maintain health
and condition so that cows can enter
the fall season in the best possible
condition, and maintain maximum
milk flow il the winter months when
milk prices are highest. Upon the
way cows are fed in the summer
depends their condition in fall and
winter.
Spring and early summer grass
is literally tonic, which may slim
ulate milk yield for a brief time,
but which can't take the place of
bodybuilding feeds. Early grass is
largely water, and COW cannot eat
enough of it to keep up both con-
dition and milk flow.
The best dairy authorities urge
feeders to keep their cows in the
barn. on full grain ration, at least
moth longer than is customary.
The slight extra investment for
grain will be more than reDaid in
fall and winter milk checks.

Indians Resent Terms
Deropuforv TO Race

Melvin r. Gilmore of the Museum
of the American Indian in New York
says that the Indians resent having
the words "squaw" and "papoose" ap.
piled to their women and children.
"The use Of the terms buck 'sQuaw'
and 'papoose' is not only an offense
against refined Speech" according to
Gilmore, "but those who use such
terms are thereby incapacitated to
fairly appreciate the Indian, or any.
thing Of Indian culture. The psyche.
logical effect of the use Of such terms
Is to inhibit the mind of one who nses
them from estimating Indians in their
proper human relationship. And /
may say that Of all the wrongs and In
justices suffered by the Indian race,
the native American race, none causes
more bitter, burning resentment, and
naturally so, than this Of declassing
Indians apart from all human kind
by the use Of these reprehensible and
derogatory terms"
