Arden system OF Exercise Scientific exercise because it
arouses circulation and stimulates every organ and
gland to function effectively, will retard old age Cor
rect exercise will mold your figure just as sculptor

HOUSTON, Texas, Oct 81
Houston Welcomes Bankers"-read
the sign in every window of the Hous-
ton business houses; Houston Wei
comes Bankers" the big cap
tions on the front pages Of all Hous-
ton newspapers. The chamber of
commerce tried to create the i'm
preston that everyone in Houston
was glad to see the bankers. Shop
clerks are forced to wear welcome
Bankers ribbons however much in
the way,
Fake Sentiment.
For weeks the newspapers had been
trumpeting the forthcoming conven-
ton of the American Bankers Asso-
citation, and appealing to the people"
to play welcome host to the banker
guests" appealing for free auto
transportation for the bankers (de-
priving the taxi-drivers of the chance
to earn few extra cents), to show
the true spirit of Southern Hospi-
tally" But the chamber of COM
merce welcomed the guests, not only
because of hospitality, but for more
materialistic reason.
Industrializing Houston.
Since the completion of the ship
channel connecting Houston with the
Gulf of Mexico, Houston is taking
first place in exporting raw material
Cotton, lumber, oil etc. direct to all
South American ports, as well as to
European ports, and has been grad
ually establishing an industrial CEN
ter. Being so situated as to enable
it to manufacture in Houston at a
much lower cost than in the east (due
to cheap labor, and vast deposits of
natural resources), the chamber of
commerce is trying for investments.
And the bankers Of course under
stand it very well, they have an eye
for business. The Houston Press
publishes statement of Charles
Cason of the Chemical National
Bank Of N. Y, referring to his previ-
GUS visit to Houston: "just friendly
visit at first, but l saw here the
making Of great city and since have
made numerous investments in real
estate here, your city is certain to be-
come within the next few years the
great metropolis of the Gulf Coast"
In front page article calling for
hospitality for the distinguished
guests" the Houston Press "a Scripps
Howard paper) gives the reason for
this hospitality, and remarks that:
nowadays, bankers sit side by side
with president of nation, and have
much to do with the country's govern

An Attorney on Injunctions

workers as to the class nature of the
/ courts.
Mass Picketing.
Mass picketing is the answer, and
this Holly omits. For without eff
fective picketing, without tying up
the shops, no injunctions are needed
by the employers. Holly is right
when he calls for disobedience of the
injunction. If the Chicago District
of the International Association of
Machinists had followed a policy of
-disobedience of the injunction handed
down by Denny Sullivan in 1926, the
American Oven Strike in Chicago
would not have ended in disaster. But
the Machinists obeyed the injunction,
and hired bewhiskered Ham Lewis,
former u. S. Senator to appeal to the
courts to sustain the legality of the
Anti-Labor Injunction Limitation

win our battles for us. The result

except a lost strike.
Holly's advise is not altogether
sound, but it is refreshing to note his
views expressed in one of the labor
journals. instead of the usual drivel
about the injunction in the trade
union press generally and in the
American Federationist in particular.

Many idolatrous readers, l know,
will think it superfluous to mention
anything but the fact that the COM

ously lovely Mary Ellis are among the
cast. A large section of the audience
which saw the play last night at the
former modest home of the Theatre
Guild experienced a comfortable feel

school or college days? Jazzed up by

wisecracks, the ancient play succeeded

MOST trade union journals discuss
liA the injunction as something which
some individual wicked judge hands
down against labor and confine their
efforts to passing anti-labor Injunction
limitation bills. Railway Main
tenance of Way Employees Journal
in it's August 1927 issue is a rare ex-
ception, which printed an article on
"Stone Cutters and the Supreme
Court" by William H. Holly, Ma
tional Women's Trade Union Leagues
Attorney.
Holly's opinion is that it is waste
of time to employ attorneys and
fight injunction cases, saying: "They
always or nearly always lose. Their
victories in this field have been few
and insignificant" lie advocates dis
obedience of injunctions when issued.
He furthermore advises that labor
SHOULD dispense with lawyers and
with appeals to higher courts. That,
too, is a waste of money" "It is no
disgrace to go to jail" he adds, "the
finest characters this world has ever
known have been jailed by ignorant
judges"
His Criticism Correct.
With Holly's criticism of the in
junction as anti-labor we can agree,
and that resort to higher courts sell
dom if at any time bring reversal of
anti-labor sentences. We can further
more draw the conclusion that the
courts are against the workers. We
can agree also with Holly's proposal
Of disobedience Of injunctions when
issued. That has been the policy Of
the left wing workers in the needle
trades Of New York in their .trikes.
But Holly overreaches himself when
he advocates no fight in the courts
against the issuance Of the injunc-
ton, and also, no appeal to a higher
court. No appeals mean immediate
falling of numbers Of workers needed
on the picket line. Picket duty wins
strikes, effective picket duty which
ties up the shops. Furthermore, the
fight in court and the appeal become

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Oct. u. -
The resolution declaring it to be the
opinion of the senate of the United
States that no man should hold the
presidential office more than eight
years, will meet an amusingly changed
situation when introduced in the
forthcoming session.
Cooldge's I-do-not-ch n
statement has removed any basis for
a claim by standpatters that the reso-
luton is now a device for robbing
the republicans of their best vote
getter. The president is out of the
race. Dawes and Hoover are leading
the G. o. P field, with Hughes a poor
third. Neither Dawea nor Hughes
could, if elected for one term, expect
to survive more than four years in
the job. Certainly they would not
hope for more than eight years in the
White House, since both are we'll past
60. Any blocking of a declaration
against third term would now serve
to guage the ambitions of but one
andidate-H Herbert Hoover.
Scared Progressives.
Accordingly the progressive"
group will invite the standpatters to
give unanimous endorsement to the
declaration that two terms is enough
for any American president This ar
gument will appeal to many of the
hard-boiled opponents of Hoover. 1t
will embarrass some of the middle
western senators who think chat Hoov-
er will force the convention to nom
mate him. 1t will have the support
of virtually every democrat in the up
per branch of congress- AS matters
now stand, it should pass.
If this should happen, then the pos
sibility of drafting" Coolidge to run
against Al Smith in 1928 would be
ended. Practical politicians would
turn to Andrew Mellon, secretary of
the treasury and big scab coal mine
owner, 70 learn whether thai close
mouthed oracle of high finance had
decided to make Hughes the nominee
or to pin his colors on Dawes. They
are all quite sure that Mellon does
not care for Hoover, whom he looks
upon as a rival prophet in the temple
Of Big Business.
Some of Hoover's advisers urge
that Hoover should favor the resolu-
tion-on the ground that if Hoover

appears to be sweeping the country
in the primaries next summer, Mellon
may draft Coolidge to shut Hoover
out. But Hoover, who is now receiv-
ing a continuous stream of political
visitors, from his government-provid-
ed headquarters in the department of
commerce, sits tight. He is quite will
ing to dream of three terms for him
self, if he pleases the eastern bank
ing crowd in a first administration.
LOwdcn Looms.
Senator Nye of North Dakota seems
to be worried over the ghost of the
Lowden boom which settled like a
grasshopper cloud upon the fields of
his state some months ago. 1t appears
that the farmers and county chair
men in North Dakota never heard
or promptly forgot-about the pur-
chase of delegates to the G. O. P.
national convention in 1920 by agents
Of the wealthy Gov. Lowden. At that
time the scandal was so rank that
the convention turned from it in alarm
and chose the spotless Warren Gam
aEel Harding of Ohio to deliver the
oil reserves. Lowden turned farmer,
and spent lot of money on adver-
Using himself in the farming states.
Many farmers in the northw est began
to take him at his own pretensions.
Reed Interested In Exposure.
Nye, Frazier, Borah, LaFollette,
Brookhart and probably Howell, Nc
Master, Blaine and Hiram Johnson
will be for Norris for the republican
nomination. Norris stands for real
farm marketing legislation and Low
den says that he does, also. But Low
den stands for nothing else that the
progressives want. Hence the Lowden
managers are directing fire at the
North Dakota senators, blaming them
fer failure to support Lowden. The
innocent farmers who have written
these letters did not stop to think of
the embarrassment which Jim Reed
of Missouri is about to bring upon
the Lowden candidacy. Reed is run
ming the senate investigation of cor
rupt use of money in politics. Reed
is also a presidential candidate. Eight
years ago he exposed Lowden's agents
ir their purchase Of delegates. He will
bring it up agaia this winter.
Aside from his record as u slush-
fund operator, and as head of the
Pullman Palace Car concern, and as
m anti-labor governor Of Illinois, and
AS politician without social vision or
fine sense of justice, Lowden may
be all right for those farmers who
like that sort of rnan. The difficulty
with q Lowden movement in the pro-
gress;ve states IS that it is a niockery
IT principle and CT ordinary human
intelligence.

Offered in Wages
Dispute by Roads

CHICAGO. Oct. 27 (FP).-'Tf this
evidence is admitted, arbitration of
wages on the railroads is at an end"
said Donald r. Richberg. counsel for
the Locomotive Fremen's union be-
fore the United States arbitration
board hearing on wage increase de-
mands on western roads. This chal-
lenge was made with reference to tes-
timony the carriers wished to submit
regarding their financial troubles.
Voted to Allow Evidence.
Richberg declared that the financial
difficulties Of the road were not
relevant. The employees have no
access to the books of the railroad,
he said, and the employees have little
chance in debating a question that
the interstate commerce commission
after years of research cannot decide.
But the arbitration board neverthe-
less voted to admit the evidence.
Costs as Much to Live.
Richberg objected to a considera-
ton of all this poverty data on the
ground that profits or comparative
profits are not material to the deter
mination of what are reasonable wag-
es and that profits cannot be ascer-
tanned without establishing a basis
from which to compute such profits.
In any case labor counsel made it hot
for carrier witnesses by slicing,
through cross examination, more than
S170000000 from the Investment"
Of the Northern Pacific.
Locomotive firemen are asking for
81 day increase. On the stand a
number of the workers have told of
the hardships behind the big boilers
on the road. A fireman on the
Wabash testified that on a passenger
run of hours and 45 minutes he
shovels tons of coal After II years
Of service, another fireman is goth on
the list for promotion to engineer.
Instead of being preparatory work to
becoming an engineer, firing has been
shown at the hearing to be a life job.

Tho the observations at the close of
the play on the rights of women are

spite his gratuitous poutings and pos

AFTER PERIOD OF
 TORTURE, MAN FINDS RELIEF FROM ITCHING
@n now entirely hsaled

,'Charlestown (Boston), Mass, Dec. 18:-"Last June had an itch ing irritation on my back, princi- pally between the shoulders, and also on the back of my hands, ex- tending to the shoulders. The skin was apparently clear of any disor- der, but the itching was intense. After vigorous rubbing with a Turkish towel there would appear two spots, about an inch apart, which bled from the effects of the rubbing. 1 used Bay Rum and other lotions before I tried your Resinol Ointment. At bedtime my back received a thorough washing with Resinol Soap and a very gen crous application of Ointment, after which would rest quite comforta- ply until about two or three in the morning, when I received another application. A third upon arising would be enough to make me feel at case during the day. Thanks to the above treatment, the trouble is new entirely healed" (Signed) John John ". Matthews, 1 Crystal Place.
