WHAT HOME FOLKS ARE
DOING IN RELIEF WORK
Service" Organizations Helping
UnfOrtunates on Health Road

Because of the interest of the "ser-
vice" Organizations-the Rotary, XII
wants and Lions Clubs, the Masonic
fraternity, the Elks, the Knights of
Columbus, the various guilds and
leagues-in crippled children, hun
dreds of crippled children throughout
the United States are having medical
and surgical attention and care that
otherwise would not have been posi-
BILE. Among them is. a lovely baby
girl up in Western Maryland who
came into the world with club feet
but whose little feet are being
Strengthened so that when she learns
to walk, she won't have to hobble, but
will be just like other children.
One snowy day last month, in re-
Spouse to an urgent message, one CT
the public health nurses in the west
ern part of the State drove her little
car up the six miles of mountain road
that led to the home from which the
call had come. The young mother
and father, the four months old baby,
the grandfather and some other kin
folk were waiting to see her. They
told her that they had heard that the
doctor from one of the big hospitals
in Baltimore City had told the men
at the club meeting in the town down
N tbn uollpu ahO11+ tho yyOr1IaIsfr11
things that could be done, and were
being done for the crippled children
He even had said that they could
straighten baby's club feet so that
the child could learn to walk and run
like other children. Was that true?
They showed her the baby's feet.
Was there any way for them to be
Strengthened? Could she help them
to take the baby to see the doctor?
She would do it gladly, she told them
Then she arranged for the father and
mother and baby to meet her at the
health office down in the valley few
days later, when she was planning to
bring two other crippled children
down to the clinic at the hospital in
Baltimore.
They all made the trip safely; the
baby's legs were put in casts; the
father and mother were told how to
take care of her and now every two
weeks they take her back to the hos
pital for the doctor to see her or for
the casts to be changed. And they are
all looking forward to the time when
the casts will be taken off and the
little legs and feet be straight.
eve all know in a general way
about the things that are being done
for the crippled children" DR.. R. H.
Riley, Director of the State Depart
ment of Health, said in telling the
story which came to his attention
through an "all-in- the -day's-work" re-
port of the public health nurse, "but
an experience like this makes us real
ize more wildly the possibilities of
! the care that is available" ''

A TRIBUTE

Dear brother and sister you've left US,
You've left US with an aching heart,
But we know it has been Gods will,
That we at this time should part.
We know that you have left US,
And are gone to be with the best,
To sing and rejoice with the angels
In the blessed mansion of rest.
Your troubles here are all ended,
You'll have no sorrow nor pain;
While it has been our loss a
Yet we know it has been heavens
gain.
AS time passes on and we serve Him,
The God Of those gone before,
Well trust in that promise He gave
us
To meet and part no more.

events of the greatest Importance to
the international working class.
The three anniversaries-the Febru-

occur within "a few days of each
other. Today is the anniversary of
both Marks death and the begin

that overthrew Russian czarism.
Monday, March IS, is the anniver-
sary of the Paris Commune, the

These three great working class
events will be fittingly honored in

BUFFALO, N. Y, Farch 13.-One
worker was killed and fif-

jured today when a terrific explo-
SIGN occurred in Plant No. IL of the
National Aniline and Chemical Com
pany here. The origin of the blast
lis laid by the workers to the speed
UP and disregard of precautions by
the company. The analine dye is a
war industry, and all plants are SC
arranged that they can readily be-
gin to manufacture explosives and
poison gas.
Even in peace time, a certain
amount of practising in the manu-
facture of war materials goes on,
in preparation for expected heavy
orders as soon as the new world
war breaks out. Tanks of explo-
sive chemicals are always standing
around, sometimes open.
None of the workers burned and
torn by the present explosion are
expected to live.

WASHINGTON, March 13.-The
state department today took further
action to protest its imperialistic in
terests against Great Britain, by re-
questing the London embassy to

Sir Hugo Hirst, chairman and
managing director, said the action
had been made necessary because
more than half of the ordinary
shares heretofore outstanding (about
2,25G,00G shares) had passed into
American hands. This, he said, had
occurred during the past year.
A committee Of American bankers
has been formed in New York to

Gen. Mobile, Failing in
Fascist Arctic Stunt,
Is Forced Out of Army

ROME, March 13.-General Um-
berto Mobile, commander of the
Italia, has resigned from the army
and the resignation has been ac-
cepted.
Mobile is a true fascist, fana-
tical butcher during the world war
and publicity hound after the war.
AS an assistant to Roald Amundsen
in the flight over the North Pole
of the Norge in 1926, he tried to
discredit Amundsen and take all the
credit to himself. His disastrous
trip last year in the Italia, a ship
blessed by the pope, angered the
fascist leaders. The flight was
meant as jingoistic exhibition, and
instead redounded to the credit Of
the Soviet Union and the crew OF
its ice breaker, the Krassin, which
rescued the members of the Mobile
party. Mobile himself fled from his
companions in Swedish airplane
and left them on the ice.
