OIL WORKERS SEEK
SHORT WORK DAY

Fort Worth, Texas.-Oil workers
have launched an organizing drive
and President Green has assigned Or
ganizer j. B. Dale to aid this move
ment.
The oil workers are forced to labor
10 to u hours day, although oil
production has broken all records and
owners are uniting to limit produc-
ton They are assisted by the federal
government and by various state com
missions. Only recently they aban-
doned the seven-day week for drillers
because the flood of oil threatened
profits.
The oil owners agree that 100 per
cent production would wreck their in
dustry, but they insist on long hours
for employees. These workers have
concluded that the only way to secure
a short work day is to organize and
take it.

LESS MAN POWER
Used These Days, Declares
Lawmaker; Would Bar
Filipines

Neutrality-suspicious. present pros
perity is machine made. The use of
man power has declined and will con-
tinue to Decline" said Congressman
Johnson, chairman of the house com
mittee on immigration, in presenting
bill that would exclude from the
United States all citizens of the
Philippine Islands who are ineligible
to American citizenship.
The measure would place Filipinos
of the Oriental race in the same cate
cory as japanese and other Far East
ern peoples, permitting their en-
trance for temporary residence only
or for permanent stay if they are
members of classes exempt under the
Johnson-Reed immigration act OF
1924.
The bill would repeal the law which
authorizes naturalization of Filipinos
honorably discharged from American
military or naval service.
Mr.. Johnson said he has informa.
ton that thousands of Filipino labor.
ers are coming to the United States
many of them from Hawaii.
There are enough poor people il
this country now," he said. Every
incoming laborer weakens the posi-
ton of the American working man
who will be greatly benefited if re-
lief from Filipino competition can be
provided by congress"

FAKE FLU CURES
FOOL THE PUBLIC

Washington,-"The is no known
drug or combination of drugs which
will prevent of cure influenza, de.
clared w. G. Campbell of the Food
Drug, and Insecticide Administration
of the Department of Agriculture in
warning the public of false adver-
tisements by patent medicine manu-
facturers. q
The widespread fear of influenza
has been taken advantage of by some
manufacturers who have not hesitated
to advertise their preparations as pre-
ventives or cures for the disease, said
Mr.. Cambell.
Unfortunately, the Food and
Drugs Act does not reach false ad-
vertising statements appearing in the
press, or in any advertising medium
not in cluded with the package of the
preparation ITSELF" said the federal
bureau chef.
The food and drug enforcing au-
thorities are powerless to check such
misleading advertising, serious as the
consequences may be in the case of
those who are led to depend on such
Ineffective products and neglect the
hygienic precautions recommended by
public health authorities such as iso-
lation, rest, sleep, diet and proper
ventilation.
Products labeled as effective for
this purpose will unhesitatingly be
classed as misbranded within the
meaning of the Food and Drugs Act
and treated accordingly
1T may not be amiss to add that
manufacturers are usually cautious
about putting unwarranted claims
upon the labels of their products,
knowing that they render themselves
liable under the Food and Drugs Act
Those who are inclined to take ad-
vertising claims at face value will
frequently find that the labels them
selves, or the circulars accompanying
the packages of drugs, do not repeat
these claims.

WOOD F. AXTON
Clown Cigarette Maker
Again Goes to Front For
Workers Welfare

In connection with word of praise,
on the editorial page of the Louisville
(Ky) Courier-J Journal of January 81,
for Mr.. Hoge who had done such
excellent work in the $4,000, 900
sewer bond campaign, the following
reference was made concerning Col
w. F. Axton, SO widely known as a
great friend to organized labor:
Notwithstanding the untiring and
unselfish efforts on the part of Mr..
Hoge to secure the passage of the
bond issue, the personnel of the gem
eral committee had something to do
with the people giving it their favor
able consideration. For instance,
practically all the labor unions en-
dorsed the bond issue when it came
before them for approval or disap-
proval. But there was one man on
the general committee who influenced
this practically unanimous vote of the
working people, and that man was
Wood F. Axton, president of the AK
ton-Fisher Tobacco Co."
"To my mind" continues the
writer, there is no one man within
the city of Louisville whom the people
would rather look to for advice on
economic questions than Mr. Axton,
and think it should be known that
substantial number of the work
ing people of Louisville supported the
bond issue of Louisville by reason of
Mr.. Axton."
AS is we'll known, organized labor
does not have better or a more
conscientious friend, in the industrial
world than Col Axton, whose com
pany is the maker of Clown cigar
cites, Old Hill Side tobacco, and other
acknowledgement manufactured to-
bacco products, all bearing, as they
always have, the union label.

FOUR-DAY WEEK
Is Urged AS Unemployment
Remedy

Washington, D. c., Il. L. N. 81
In an address before the Federation
of Women's Clubs here, DR.. Florence
Bamberger of Johns Hopkins Univer-
sity advocated the four-day week as a
means of reducing unemployment.
Henry Ford, she said, was not
merely altruistic in urging a short
working week, but was facing the
situation created by the fact machines
are so efficient full-time week would
produce too much for consumers to
absorb.
