Wage Cuts Mean Stagnation
And Depression in Business,
Green Tells Radio Audience

Washington, d. c. (ILNS)-"Grad-
ually most of the owners of industry
and those who manage it have come
to understand that the progress and
prosperity Of American business, to
a very large extent, depends upon the
payment of high wages to their en-
ployes and the enjoyment of increas-
ing leisure by working people" Presi-
dent William Green Of the American
federation of Labor said in an address
over the National Broadcasting radio
chain. Mr.. Green's address, which
was heard by a great audience,
warned emphatically that wage cut
ting meant disaster for business.
'The greatest masses of the peo-
ple," Mr.. Green declared, "must be
able to use and enjoy, as well as buy,
the things which industry produces.
The classification of working people
has been broadened so that they are
now regarded as the greatest consum-
ers. AS much attention is now be-
ing given to the consuming power
of the masses as was formerly given
to their productive power. Americas
millions of working people, together
with their families and those depend
ent upon them, constitute the greatest
of all markets for the sale and use of
American-made g0ods...We know now,
with certainty and precision, that any
reduction in the purchasing power of
the masses of the people means stag
nation and business recession. The
working people must be well paid
and when we'll paid they must feel
secure in the enjoyment of continuous
employment. The consequences of
such an industrial and economic condi-
ton will be that the masses of the
people will buy and invest and in
turn the manufacturer will sell goods
and economic equilibrium will be
maintained.
at was a realization of this very
vital relationship of high wages and
work security to national prosperity
and community well-being which
caused the President of the United
States to summon into conference rep
resentatives Of business, labor, en-
ployers, finance and other groups
when a menacing liquidation of stock
values took place recently. 1t was an
occasion which called for the exercise
of common sense, good Judgment and
the performance of patriotic service.
Both the material and psychological
facts required attention. 1t was high
ly necessary for all to think and act
right The effect of the shock which
the nation sustained must be over
come quickly if serious economic con-
sequences were to be avoided.
"The wage theory of the American
Federation of Labor regarding the
payment of high wages was empha-
sized by the group representing labor
as a primary and essential require
ment in the maintenance of industrial
stability and economic prosperity.
The employers of labor who partici-
pated in the conference with the
President accepted labor's point of

sition to any reduction in wages with
a resultant reduction in the buying

Through the prompt and constructive
action Of the President the effect Of

fences.

future we will enjoy wider distribu-

silk.
This Midsummer vogue for the linen
suit indicates, it seems to me, that AFTER
much hesitation American women are
following the lead of smartly dressed
French women in favoring the two
piece suit and separate blouse for street
wear. There is every reason to believe
that the two-piece suit will be mucn
more generally accepted here this Au-
tumn than 1t was last Spring.
It is rather odd that Americans have
been so slow to adopt the fashion OF
the tuck blouse-because several sea-
sons ago there was tendency on the
part of certain f1apperS to adopt this
mode of wearing the separate blouse
even before Paris dreSSmakerS had be-
gun to make use of the revival. Now
as every one knows-the tuck-in blouse
is much more often seen in France than
here, and leading designers have MADE
use of the tuck-in blouse effect In many
of their smartest new crosses.

Your Baby and Mine
BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

Mrs. M. ]. writes: "a mother know
of has two Children girl. S, and a
boy, z. The boy is very nervous, bites
his nails to the quick, twists his front
hair and cannot get to sleep until IL or
IL at night, though put to bed around
5. His meals are as follows: Two to
four cups of coffee at breakfast. one
to three cups of leftover or freshly
made coffee for lunch and a cup Of
coffee and glass of milk for night. He
eats meat and potatoes. but refuses all
vegetables. He eats eggs fried on both
sides. The mother insists that the
coffee has nothing to do with his ner-
vousness but that he inherits it. How
should this little boy be fed? I feel
with the father that the mother is re-
sponsible for his nervousness, but I have
no right to interfere"
AnsWer-Neither have I, Mrs. M. j.,
because the mother Is not interested in
knowing how to feed the child. The
only advice that is ever used Is the
advice that is really wanted. This
mother is satisfied with her method of
feeding, and until she has some per-
sonal doubts as to its effectiveness she
will probably go right on making all the
mistakes in the diet that it is possible
for one mother TO make and still insist
that she is right.
Coffee has no place at all in the diet
list of any child. / am sure you know
that. Milk, or cocoa made with milk,
or cereal coffee made with milk, are
the permissible drinks. The last two
are simply changes from straight milk,
the cocoa or cereal coffee being used
as f1avors in this instance. There is
practically no nourishment in coffee,
except for the small amount of sugar
and cream used in it, so that this boy
might as well have so many cups Of hot
water for his breakfast. Coffee is a
well known stimulant to the nerves. 1t
keeps people awake and is often taken
at night just for that purpose. How
blind his mother isl 1t would seem
that any mother who had her child S
welfare at heart would at least listen
to the dictates of her own good sense,
even if to no one else. She is evil
yet she is feeding him as poorly as if

doesn't it? I shall be only too happy
to send her a feeding leaflet II she asks
for it.
Mrs. j. o. s. writes: ~ had some
difficulty inducing my baby to take
orange juice, and solved it this way:
I would eat an orange in front of baby

to reach for it would break off a sec
ton and let her suck it. She made ter
ribly wry faces, but came back for

PSYCHIC ADVENTURES OF
NOTED MEN AND WOMEN
Shelley Wrath Which Appeared Shortly Before His Death
BY J. p. GLASS.

Bizarre and terrible were the Incl
dents manifesting themselves after
Percy Bysshe Shelley took up his resi-
dence on the shore of the Bay Of Spez-
zia.
It was Spring and the atmosphere
was redolent of life and hope. But in
the abode of the poet apprehension
and worry reigned. and sometimes stark
terror invaded it.
Still, it was not imagined that death
was on its way.
Sbelley's mind was filled with
thoughts Of the possible phenomenon
|of a dual body.
Indeed, Lord Byron relates that, to-
ward the end of June, some close ac-
quaintances saw Shelley walk into a
little wood near Lerici when 1t was
known for a fact that he had gone in
the opposite direction.
This was on the 29th of the month.
But six days before, on the night of
June %, there had been an adventure
which had curdled the blood of all the
poets household.
It was midnight. Mrs. Shelley had
gone to her room. Shelley already was
in bed. So. too, were their friends,
the Williamses.
Suddenly, loud, heart-rending screams
were heard issuing from the saloon.

door. Entering the saloon. the Will

eyes.

Still trembling. he explained.
vision had come to him of a
cloaked figure, which appeared at his
bedside and beckoned to him to follow.
Seemingly he had risen in his sleep
and walked at the heels of this ghostly
figure to the sitting room. There the
figure turned and lifted the hood Of its
cloak.
The face revealed was Shelley's own
Are you satisfied"
With these words, the apparition van
ished Shelley's screams rang out,
arousing the household.
1t Is true that there existed an ex-
PLANTATION for this occurrence which
would discount Shelley's idea of dual
body.
He had been reading the drama, eel
Embozado o Ell Encapotado." In this
story the hero is thwarted all his life
by a mysterious parsonage. Finally,

prosecutor. the latter unmasks, reveal

Today Lloyd is making 100 per

the theory that the public is longing

was equipped with a set of toilet
articles which had once graced the
toilet table of famous sixteenth CEN
