The only possible scientific ad-
vice relative to the care Of influ-
era Is essentially simple. since
there are no specific measures and
since the condition must be handled
as the various symptoms develop.
The person who Ii sick should

have the attention of q competent
physician.
It is probably we'll that ne be iso-

that he does not spread the dis
ease by coughing and sneezing. and
that he does not use the same tow

ing utensils as other members Of
the family.

Peter Rabbits Discomfort

A discontinued look did wear?
Peter Rabbit
Peter Rabbit had 4 crouch. In
other words. he felt very much out
of sorts. He was discontinued. Peter
wasn't altogether to blame for be-
ing discontented 1t was chiefly
matter OF food. Peter and Mrs. Pc
ter over in the dear Old Briar-patch
were living almost altogether on
bark and such tender twigs as they
could find. Now. bark is all right
for an occasional meal. but to have
nothing but bark and twigs day
after day Is enough to upset the
good nature OF any one. Anyway. that
il what Peter Rabbit says and Pc
ter ought to know.
!. You zee, the Green Meadows and
{ the Green Forest were buried In
/ snow. Peter couldn't remember
WIN there had been SO much
snow so early in the winter. OF
course. this meant that Peter md
Mrs. Peter could get only such
foods as they could find above the
snow, and this meant nothing put
bark and twigs.
II wonder if this is going to last
all winter" grumblcd Peter. as he
looked longingly out OF the dear
Old Briar-patch across 10 the snow
covered Green Forest. II keep on
eating nothing but barks and twigs,
shall turn into tree or bush.

anxiously. She knew Just what was
going on in Peters mind She knew
that he was longing to run over TO

said she.

Labor, Report Shows

Continued from Page O7'e)
States in 1926, the federal report
shows, averaged 214 days work at
$6.46 per day or total of $1,382. But
they could make this total only if they
worked every single day when the
mines were open. The highest aver
age earnings were possible in Illinois
where 172 days of work at an average
of $500 made possible annual earn
ings of $1,531. Tennessee represents
the other extreme with 234 possible
days work at an average Of only $3.49,
giving annual earnings of $817. In
West Virginia, the leading non-union
state, miners might have averaged
$1,445 by working PAT days at $5.85.
Can't Catch Up.
The report shows that the union
tonnage rate for hand loading adj
vanced from 58.5c a ton in 1918 to
SOC in the year 1920 to 1927. This
increase of only 36hfo over prewar
compares with an increase of more

the same period the tonnage rate for
hand or pick miners advanced 561a %.
The Jacksonville scale, which opera
tor propaganda proclaims eXorbitant,
does not provide a majority of the
miners with even as satisfactory a
standard of living as they had in
prewar years. Their condition was
extremely serious in 1920 when the
cost of living ranged to more than
1000 over prewar.
Tonnage rates show very nearly
the trend in average earnings for
these miners who represent nearly
500 of all mine workers employed.
Over the entire 25-year period the
rate for leaders has advanced only
$3.50 and that of pick miners 95.4To.
Throughout they have failed to keep

notorious labor exploiter and open

secretary of the above association to
speak to it's members at big ban
quet given in his honor at the Hotel
Mason on Tuesday, Jan. 8. More than

ence that took place at the time.

In the course of his address given
at the meeting, Mr.. Edgerton, in out
lining the preliminary plans for the
work of the association, incident to
the coming conference, is quoted in
the Florida Times Union of Jan. 10,
as pointing out to his fellow CAPT
talists, that, "The south is going to
be. land of exploitation for the next
few years."
He then launched into an attack on
the labor unions.

1.-TWO things have carried the
United States to the industrial su-
premacy of the world, the speaker de-
clared-the protective tariff and the
open shop. He asserted that there
would not be closed shop except for
the cowardly fear of employers"
In the meantime the officials of
the American Federation of Labor are
reported to be devising ways and
means of ousting the "reds" from the
labor unions.
When, one is tempted to ask, will
the working class of the United States
rise up in their power and dump both
sets of the above named parasites
from off their backs, and achieve
their economic and industrial free
dom? The writer cannot say. But he
advises in the meantime that the
workers watch the coming open shop

COAL AND IRON
POLICE UNABLE
TO COW MINERS
Move to Keep Florida
Labor Enslaved
(By a Worker Correspondent.


Joseph Angelo, national organizer of
the u. NJ. w. of A. stationed at Vesta
No. a, gave instructions to miners on
strike at Daisytown, Pa, to be ready
to carry on mass picketing at the
mine. The following day about so
men, women and children were on
the picket line 1t was about $50
a. M, when group of coal and iron
police employed by the Vesta Coal
CO., under command of John Nagison,
arrested SO men, women and children
After the miners were arrested they
asked what the charges were. Police
charged disorderly conduct in inter
fering with the state highway traffic
Coal Company Police Cold Feet.
When the men were about to be
taken to Washington, Pa, for trial.
the coal company was unable to
frame-up the charges on the SO min
ers. 1t was decided to take them for
a hearing before the Vesta Coal Co.
The coal and iron police were unable
to prove the charges of disorder'v
conduct, and interfering with the traf-
fic on the highway. They had to
withdraw all charges against the 38
men, women and girls. The squire
who was ready to carry out the wishes
of his masters had to dismiss the
miners.
This mass arrest, carried out by
the Vesta Coal Co., a subsidiary of
Jones and Laughlin, was merely to
intimidate the miners on strike at
California, Daisytown, Richville and
other places that will soon begin to
carry out mass picketing to break the
injunctions and reestablish their
rights as workers. This arrest did
not make any effect in intimidating
the miners, but on the contrary, the
following day there was stronger
mass picketing. The pickets were
ready to be arrested. They carried
their lunch. The previous day had
given them more fighting experience.
Union Leaders Two-Faced.
While Joe Angelo who ordered mass
picketing knew, directly or indirectly,
that the coal and iron police were
making the mass ARRESTS, Angelo.

cal Union 1899 at Daisytown, Pa,
Henry Mankining and Andrew Dure-
seek went to picket at Reachville,
Pa, where systematic picketing is be-
ing carried on. Many union mine
leaders keep away and abandon the
real mass struggle of the miners and
show up after the arrests. These
leaders, if sincere, would take their
places at the head of the mass picket
lines. If they fail to do this they are
playing two cards, and any labor
leader who plays two cards, must be
kicked out.
