can workers we're called upon by
President William Green of the
American Federation Of Labor in a
statement published today to re
sist with all their power" any
further reduction Of wages during
the present period Of business de-
preston.
Green classified as Public enc
mics" employers who already have
cut wages. He particularly at
tackled employers in the textile,
bituminous coal and boot and shoes
industry, and criticized other mis-
cellaneous manufacturing enter
prises.
THE wrongs which such employ
ers are perpetrating are against the
public and serves to undermine
our national economic structure at
a time when the leaders in govern
ment and public spirited people
are striving to maintain wage
standards so that we can facilitate
and hasten to a return to normal
condition." Green said.
Because of their action a sub
stantial decrease in the purchasing
power of these workers, who be-
come their victims, is brought about
and. to that extent, the day of re-
turning prosperity and normal in
dustrial activity is being delayed
and an injury is inflicted upon
those industries where employers
and workers are heroically en-
deavoring to maintain established
wage standards"

It finally became difficult for me to
raise my arm. My kidneys troubled
me a great deal and back pains and

became very nervous and my work

I did not have to take a great deal

perfect health. Tt has been a year
now since I took Konjola and none
of my ailments have ever returned.
Konjola has real merit and I am
glad to give my statement in the
hope that others may be helped"
Taken regularly after meals over
a six to eight week period, Konjola
has no equal in the relief of all
