the Local GO meeting yesterday, they
would get him."
Georgia stated that he now
realized that the T.U.U.L. speaker
who addressed them Friday told the
exact truth when he warned them
their officials were selling them out,
and urged them to seize control of
their own strike and elect a strike
committee of the rank and file.
The strikers elected strike COM
mittee of Is; the battle is on, and
sure to spread.
The strikers demand that laborers
and muckers get $3.50 day instead
of the present $40; that rock drill
ers, timber men and carpenters get
$3.50 instead of $3.50; for the eight
hour day, sanitary and safety pro-
visions.
Safety is a serious point with
these men. A couple of days ago a
fire in Long Island City killed two
subway workers and seriously
burned twelve more. The fire trap
where the men have their lockers
was built by the city, and the Board
of Transportation is criminally re-
sponsible for what amounts to MUIR
der.
The construction on which these
subway workers labor is being done
for the city, through a number of
contractors, the largest Of whom are
Slattery, De Marco G. Reiman,
Rogers & Haggerty, Booth & Flynn,
and Rosoff.
Seven Negroes On Committee.
The secretary of the strike COM
mittee elected is NJ. Scherer. With
him on committee which includes
seven Negro workers are: Frank
Gordon, Jack Max, D. Darlington,
Manuel Paul, Edward Wentworth,
Pasquale Georgia, c. Lewis, Emile
Dubois, A. Izzo, Sam Rogers, George
Stevens, Geordania, Otto Hall, and
Hundley.
A meeting of the strike committee
will be held today at a. m. at the
Harlem Labor Center, 235 West
10th ST., and a mass meeting of all
subway workers is called for 6 p. m.
at the same hall.

PHILADELPHIA, Dec, Three
thousand workers have been laid off
in the Camden, N. j. plant of the
Victor Talking Machine Co., just

it's former $4,000, the working force
at the Victor plant is now down to
two or three thousand. Despite the
fact the Victor has branched into
the radio business, it is working
part time and has laid off thou
sands. The small demand for its
products, which fall in the luxury
class, offer another refutation of

 This was the first of series of three levels of firms that I was seeking. Continuing along the ridge we next peered into the second rock lake in a similar cirque depression. This one was parti- cularly impressive as the rugged walls of rock, in many places even overhanging, and with snow over- thrusts far out in the air, were over 200O feet high. To add to our pleasure, even as we gazed, spell bound, snow overthrust, as large as St. Ann's Hospital, broke off and roared down the rocky cliffs until it reached the lake, snowy powder

 Mosquitoes Numerous
 At third level, some 500 feet below this second firm, a deep, clear lake with timber at it's open end, promised a camp for the night. However, the mosquitoes were so numerous that we gave up at two o'clock in the morning and con- tinued down to the flats to MT. Billiards ranch and thence to the Twin Glacier camp. We reached the camp after six hours walking through the sloughs, pursued by mosquitoes and gnats, and were greeted by Oscar Olson.

Scaife, at Annex Creek, and ac- companied it Thursday morning to scale the peak above the fish scoys opposite Taku Glacier, where the survey party was to set metal disk and a triangulation station Weather conditions were ideal and though the climb to the timber line was hard and made more difficult by the heavy packs. the double trio reached spot where camp was made, and, taking two cameras and scientific instruments, continued tc the summit.
 A triangulation station was set up by Lieut. Scaife and his assist ants. and the party returned to tht camp at the timber line, where owing to darkness, they spent tho night.
 The party divided in the morn ing. the survey trio to return t' their base at Annex Greek and th' Santa Clara trio to make a searci for the hanging valleys and firn of the Taku district,

DarkeninE Blond Hsir.
Dear Miss Leeds: l have been told
that a harmless rinse for blonde hair
may be made of 10 cents worth OF
camomile flowers boiled in a pint Of
water. Is this as harmful as per-
oxide? My hair was a light brown
or golden color. but has been dark
ening rapidly in the last few years.
1t is very dry and frequent shampoo
ing seems to make 1t worse. Scalp
massage seems to make it look mcce
glossy and alive. Are the commercial
blonde shampoos harmful?
VANITY FAIR.
Answer - The camomile rinse Is
harmless but slow In its action. 1t Is
not as drastic as peroxide. The trou-
BILE with any sort Of blonde shampoo
or rinse is that it bleacheS the hair
all over so that In time the ends be-
come overbleached and the whole eff
feet is streaky. The secret Of light
ening the hair without harming 1t Is 20
bleach each part Of 1t only once, that
is, bleach the new hair as 1t grows
in at the roots but do not 60 over
the ends that have already been
bleached. If you decide to bleach
your hair. use blonde shampoo once
only and after that have the new
hairs touched up with peroxide as
they grow in dark. The commercial
rinses and bleaching shampoos de-
pend on peroxide for their action. Be-
fore your shampoo give your hair and
scalp an oil treatment. Apply olive
oil. leaving it on at least one hour be-
fore you wash your hair. Massage the
scalp ten minutes day and brush
your hair daily.
