of Working Women; Militancy
in Strikes; Fight Old Prejudices

In the Kwantung province, out of
10000 women employed in the tex
tile industry, only ten thousand are
members of the union, of whom
5000 are employed in the cotton in
dustry. In view of the fact that
the unions have not conducted a
single strike until 1927 to bring any
advantages to the working women,
the latter are inclined to take a
skepticaI view of the trade unions.
Quit the Company Unions.
The women of the same provinces
had formed in the clothing indus
try joint union with the employ
ers in 1926, but they soon realized
the differences in their interests
from those of their employers, and,
quitting the unions, they formed
their own trade unions of working
women. This union has conducted
several strikes which have resulted
in some wage increases and in gen.
eral amelioration Of working con-
ditions.
Woman Workers in China.
In 1927 number of other trade
Unions were formed by the women,
whilst q large number of working
women Joined the general trade
Unions (Hongkong, Shantung. etc..
In Shanghai, the most prolctarian
center in China, the women are par
ticularly we'll organized.
Women Organize Strikes.
Since 1920 there have been scores
of strikes in Shanghai, in rapid sue
cession. The women took advantage
Of these strikes to raise their own
| economic demands whilst at the
same time supporting the common
struggle of the Chinese workers
against national and foreign capital
lists. They acted as strike pickets,
took part in demonstrations and adj
dressed public meetings. The po-
lice authorities imposed the same
penalties upon working women as
they did upon the men. They are
bludgeoned and jailed, tortured and
executed by all the refined methods
of cruelty which are .practiced in
China.

IT IS worthy of note that bankers,
manufacturers and politicians take
care that the populace are aware of
the fact that they celebrate their
birthdays by working as usual. They
figure that this is the best time to
call public attention to the alleged
fact that they work. On mayor
Walkers arrival from his Goth
vacation since he became executive
head of the city, he presented acting
mayor Mckee with an alligator
pear, on the occasion of that Off
ciaPs birthday. If the mayor had
as keen sense of humor as he is
credited with he would have brought
carload of plums from California
instead of,a crate of pears. But per-
haps h believes his official family
take their plums without asking
permission.

A BRIGHT young man who ap-
"A piled himself to his work and
never looked at the clock during
working hours, rose to the position
of assistant secretary of the Ban
citaly, said to be the second largest
financial institution in the United
States. No doubt he was pointed to
with pride as an example of what
every other little American boy
could do thru hard work and loyalty
to his boss. But when the young
man went to Montreal on his vaca-
ton the bank examiner bounced on
his accounts and learned that he had
embezzled 100000 of the banks
money. He gambled on the stock
market. He was unlucky; that's all.
Had he hit it right nobody would
ever know the truth of how he ac-
quired his wealth and he would be

cess magazines.

GOVERNOR Smith insists that his
" answer to the Reverend John
(Cock) Roach Straton must be made
from the same pulpit that is oc-
cupied by the evangelist every Sun
day. This may be good political
strategy but we fear for Al's inn
mortal soul. How can a believer in
the infallibility of the pope desc
crate himself by stepping into pro-
testant pulpit? Should a more
humble Catholic layman than Al
Smith dare to sit in the pew of
protestant church not to speak of
occupying a pulpit his soul would
be damned for all eternity.

THOSE who are in need of healing
might do worse than get their
radios set for the services Of the
Most Reverend Arthur Edward
Leighton, Metropolitan Archbishop
and Primate of the Independent
Catholic Church of America. He
will preach over Station NMCA
next Sunday evening and assures us
that no matter how great the afflic-
ton cure is certain, provided the
afflicted keeps glass of cool water
in the vicinity. Probably the Rever-
end gentleman has devised way for
transmitting drop of something
exhilirating thru the ether and that
the cool water is intended for
chaser.

Told You So

HERE is tip to the unemployed
"A and even the employed who are
usually ahead of their weekly
wages. Drop in on John J, Raskob,
j. P. Morgan or Otto H. Kahn, and
purchase few thousand dollars
worth of stock in General Motors or
some other prosperous concern. You
do not need any money. All you
have to do is to get either one of
the above-named gentlemen to en-
dorse your note and then forget
about it. If you need ready cash
you may sell your stock but perhaps
you would rather do as Andrew
Carnegie did-let it pay for itself.

canny Scot is reviving. The New
York Times tells US that Andy made
his first $500 without spending a

purchased $500 worth of stock in ar

dent of the company endorsed his

turned this over to the company in

Few will be sorry that the exc
cutive council of the A. F. of L.
hurled well-directed shot of gar
bage at the Brookwood Labor Col
lege, Katonah, New York. That the
A. F. of L. charges are unfounded
does not affect the chuckle which
goes up from this department. Mat
thew Vol, the chief heressy hunter
of the executive council, learned that
Brookwood was nest of atheism
and Soviet propaganda. The fact
is that it is neither fish, flesh nor
good frog jelly. The writer never
knew or heard of any graduate of
Katonah that was fit for anything
better than lecturing before the left
wing of the National Womans'
Party. It's directorate catered to the
bureaucrats of the A. F. of L. for
the sake of dough and respectable
ty. Its fate at the hands of the ex-
ecutive council is one more demons

Even as early as six months OF
age. children are fed green vege-
tables in some form. If vegetable
juice alone is being fed to the child,
usually carrot, spinach or onion
water Is selected. A few leaves Of
spinach, q few cubes of carrots
+ one or two peeled, chopped onions
are cooked in just enough boiling
water to keep them moist-about
one-half cupful-until tender. The
vegetables and water are then
pressed through d fine wire sieve.
The sieved vegetable settles to the
bottom, and the water above, which
is just as valuable as the vegetable.
More Variety
1t is not long, however, before
the child can be served the sieved
pulp from a variety Of cooked
vegetables, and this continues I'M
til the child has his molar teeth.
Thereafter the cooked vegetables
are well mashed, but not sieved.
A large percentage OF the minerals
and Yitamins in green vegetables
are lost in the water when they
are boiled in quantities of water.
To conserve these minerals and
vitamins, cook the vegetables in
any OF the. following ways: In a
waterless cooker, in a steamer that
holds all the juices in the vegeta-
bles, or in a tightly covered kettle
with q small amount of water,
about one.half or one cupfuI, placed
over slow heat.
Or when using the oven for other
cooking, arrange the vegetables
4 - ~
water in d covered casserole and
bake them until tender. And when
baking the child's lone potato make
full use of the oven heat by bak-
ing other foods to be served today
or tomorrow.
Cook Fresh
After the cooked vegetables have
been sieved, they should be mixed
with butter and sailed lightly be-
fore serving. Incidentally, it Is
better to cook cIlildren's vegetables
fresh every day than to attempt
to keep, them in good condition
even In the best of refrigerators
overnight.
Sometimes a vegetable PURGE or
a vegetable soup is suggested as
change from the plain sieved vege-
tabl for children. For the vege-
table PURGE, heat three tablespoon
fuls of the ,sieved green vegetable.
Add one.haln teaspoonful OF butter,
one-haIf teaspoonful OF. flour, a
pinch of salt and about three
fourths cupful OF milk. Stir until
