claring a general strike throughout

president of the American Federation
of Labor by the striking miners, Lo-
cal Union OH. The resolution which

Mil Bosses Urge
Longer Hours for Women

BOSTON, Mass, Jan. 10 (FP).-
Renewing efforts to secure longer
hours and night work for Massachu-
sets textile workers, Bay State manu-
facturers on the New England Coun-
ell seized upon Gov Alvin Fuller's
message to the legislature for sup
port. The Massachusetts members of
this New England boosters organiza-
ton sent letter to all business men
of the state urging more elasticity"
in the 48-hour law protecting women
and child workers.
The council members letter says
that the Massachusetts law prohibit
ing night work for women in factories
and their employment in textile mills
after 6 p. m. "is an absolute discrim-
nation against the textile industry
and has operated to the marked dis
advantage of Massachusetts" They
claim the chief reason the ban on

night work was made over a quarter
century ago was because of "miser-
able gas lighting"
Reference is made by the Massa-
chusetts manufacturers to the New
York industrial survey commission re-
port which recommended an elastic"
48-hour law against the demand for
a straight law by the State Fedora
ton of Labor. The New York laws
elasticity gives. employees actually a
4915 hour week for women workers
and is so complicated that enforce
ment is problem.
Every year the Massachusetts State
Federation of Labor has to fight at
tempts of textile manufacturers to
overthrow the 48-hour law. The ar
gument of southern competition as
well as that of neighboring New
England states is used against the
shorter hour law.

'LAUDS CONDITION
OF WORKINCMEN
in SOVIET union
Ira e U Mon Press
Shows Growth

CHICAGO, (FP) Jan. 11.--One
the best developed institutions in tn
Soviet Union is the labor press, az
cording to Carl Haessler, managine
editor of The Federated Press, on his
return to Chicago from 5 weeks of in
vestigation and travel in the Soviet
Union.
"Our struggling American labo
papers can take heart from the I'm
exampled development of the trad
union press in the Soviet Union," he
said. Some of the national unions
there issue daily papers that compare
in news, features and illustrations
with most European papers. The U.
S. S. r. railroad workers have long
had an influential daily in The
Whistle. The weavers and spinners
have The Voice of the Textile Work
er. In many cases the ordinary daily
papers for popular reading are owned
in whole or part by the trade unions
of the city in which they circulate.
One of the biggest Moscow dailies is
Labor, issued by the national council
of trade unions.
"Some of the papers are printed in
old plants, but others have up-to-date
equipment in new buildings. 1t is as
though the American labor movement
should one day walk into our capital
list newspaper plants and take over
the works, issuing papers with la
Dor slant instead of the capitalist
angle from that day on. That is what
actually happened in Russia and now
with the increase in national wealth
the prewar equipment is being grad
ually modernized and the inefficient
buildings scrapped for new ones. Most
of the linotypes are American or Ger
man.S The presses are almost alto
gether German, as is the color process
and other auxiliary machinery.
Linotypers Better Off in U.S.S.R.
The Iinotypers in the Soviet Union
get l month vacation each year on
fullpay, free medical and hospital ser
vice and drugs when i'll, pounds of
butter month as offset to the special
diseases of the printing industry and
very low rents amounting usually to
SIS a month and never more than $40.
The apprentice period is usually 3
years, but can be shortened if the
energy and intelligence is there"

rivalry with whom his performance
admitted him, could have disclosed
deeper penetration into the soul of
the work. His tone was as large and
noble as that of the best of them"
Another critic of note had this to
say: eve repeat what we have al
ready said before in this place, that
Sascha Jacobsen is one Of the fore
most of the younger generation Of
violinists" A third reviewer summed
up as follows: "Sascha Jacobsen is
recognized by connoiseurs as one of
the most promising violinists of the
younger generation. Such artistic
poise, repose and concentration are
rarely found in one of his age-al-
ready his reputation is made"
Jacobsen has appeared in all the
leading American and Canadian cities
He has been heard in numerous joint
recitals with Rosa Ponselle Of the
Metropolitan Opera, with Ricardo
Stracciari of the Chicago Opera and
also toured Canada as assisting artist
with Nine. Louise Edvina, foremost
of Canadian prima donnas, and one
of the leading artists of the Royal
Opera, Covent Garden, London; the
Boston Opera and the Chicago Opera.
His appearance at the recital to-
night, will undoubtedly be one
of the musical events of the musical
season. The concert will help cele-
brate the Fourth Anniversary of The
