COMEDY DRAMA AT
 THE LIBERTY TONIGHT

Billed at the Liberty theatre to- night is a domestic comedy drama starring Irene Rich in which mar ried couple seek relief of boredom by treading forbidden lanes, bringing on series of comical mixups that all most wreck everyone.
 The two reel comedy is a continual laugh at the peerless simpleton Billy Dooley, who, as the sailor on shore, to deliver a message from his cap- tain makes you forget all your trou- bles.

RAIL PENSION
Paid Out of Fixed Costs,
Not Profits

Washington.-Th interstate COM
merce commission changed regula-
tions of railroad pensions by permit
ting carriers to establish reserves for
their accrued liability for pensions
Pensions for aged and disabled en-
ployes are charged to operating ex-
penses, but the new order will permit
the creation of reserve fund.
The public has been led to believe
that these pensions came out of prof
its, rather than being a fixed charge,
just as other operating costs.
Many carriers proclaim their good
will toward disabled workers when in
fact the public pays the freight. The
pensions do not interfere with profits.

/" Where with our
roo Little Hatchet
we tell the truth
about many things. sometimes pro-
foundly, sometimes fippantly,
sometimes recklessly.

Better unionism. That was what
one union-nameless here-started
out to produce. 1t was a printing
trades union.
First this union made a directory
of every shop in it's city, listing it's
entire equipment.
When this directory was finished
the union knew what machinery was
in every shop. 1t knew to the last
man how many jobs there were and
it knew the exact character of every
job. 1t knew which shops were union
and which Of the union shops used
the label and which did not. 1t knew
which shops were open, as the term
is used. 1t knew which were hostile.
1t knew the degree of friendship and
hostility all over it's jurisdiction.
That union equipped itself to rem
der the best possible degree of serv-
ice. 1t insured, as far as possible,
good mechanics in the future by re-
quiring at least two years of high
school on the part of every appren-
tice. 1t encouraged competence and
discouraged incompetence.
That union is not only equipped to
render service and to get along well
with employers, but by the same
token it is equipped for defense if
battle is forced upon it.
The next convention Of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor will be held
not far from the Oshawa plant of
the General Motors Company in
which, some mnoths ago, the en-
ployes engaged in spontaneous
strike and then joined the American
Federation of Labor.
Not long ago-but since the strike
General Motors doubled it's group
insurance, covering all employees.
This great corporation recognized
the power of group insurance to hold
employees In line.
Labor unions are finding that if
group insurance can be used as a
weapon by big employers, it can also
be used as means of defense by
unions. Unions are insuring their
membership rapidly. 1t is wise
move, particularly since labor has its
own company to write the insurance
1t is reported that the Mexican Fed
Grafton of Labor has ordered it's
members to resign from government
jobs, wherever such jobs are held; the
eordr applies, according to the re-
ports, to state as well as federal jobs
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1928-12-28

The Mexican Federation of Labor
is reported to have denounced Presi-
dent Portes Gil as an opponent of la
Dor. There has been in this country a
suspicion that Gil's projected "labor
code" was but snare leading to gov
ernmental autocracy over labor, down
to the last degree.
If this understanding of the pro-
posed code is correct Mexican labor
has taken courageous and proper
step. 1t is best, however, to withhold
final judgment until all facts are
available. Facts come from Mexico
slowly, sometimes, and unreliably
quite often, particularly where labor
is concerned.
1t is reported that the Mexican Fed
GRAFTON of Labor has withdrawn its
delegates from the tri-parte con-
ference called to consider putting the
new code into operation. Here is
something to watch. One thing is
sure-Mexican labor is not going to
sit silent if democracy is threatened.
Charles Evans Hughes says Judges
should have more power; juries
should be dispensed with wherever
possible. He was addressing law
yers who, doubtless, liked what he
said. More work for lawyers, less
for non-lawyers, whom lawyers like
to call "yalmen," which ought to be
resented.
Judge Hughse thinks the ideal OF
justice is incarnated in judges. Yes
and it is frequently badly smeared ur
in the same place.
In the abstract the judge should
dispense justice; but judges are not
distractions; they are men and they
have failings, even as do other men
The jury is device of democracy
1t will not be given up easily and
should not be given up at all. But
we shall have to watch out, if we are
to keep it. Juries may blunder, but
the jury as an institution is a foun-
dation stone of freedom.

perately he shrugged off the quick

voice, her tilted nose. Neveri He
pulled on his sox viciously. To be

him! And there couldn't be any mis-
take. Night before last he had gone
there. She hadn't expected him, but

had allowed him to say-yes, allowed
him to say! He thrust his jaw for

loved him. Fool, That night he had
intended to ask her to marry him.

Fool! How carefully he had tied
his new four-in-hand and brushed his
shoes. All the way he had smiled
and whistled in the anticipation of
holding her, slim and surrendering,
and kissing her. The corners of his
mouth curled downward as he thought
of 1t. Lord, 1t was hard! He had
noticed a car out in front, SO he had
slipped up the steps a little more
