 TYPHUS BACILLI
pr. Hans Zinseer Develops
 Serum From Deadly Germ

Cambridge, Mass, Dee. 80 (UP)- Isolation Of the deadly typhus fever germ has been announced by pr. Hans Zinseer, professor of bacteri- blogy at Harvard Medical school.
 The announcement was made late yesterday at the opening session of the convention of the Society Of American Bacteriologists at Massa- ehusetts Institute of Technology. Typhus fever differs from typhoid. In making the announcement Dr. Einseer described how he had grown colonies of the germ in pure culture. from the culture, he said, he had developed a vaccine and inmunized FLnimals from the fever.
 Millions of lives have been lost to he typhus germ, more than 1,000,- poo dying in 1922 in the Nolga sec ion Of Russia during the famine here, it was recalled,
 Dr. Zinseer isolated the "rickcttsia bodies Of mooser," SYNONYMOUS with he germ, which, he said, could be occurred both from rats and guinea pigs, The experimental animals had heir resistance lowered by diet
 which resulted in scurvy, The bacteriologist pointed out that is series of experiments in inn |nunization had not been 100 per
 ent successful but said they dem- |nstrated "unambiguousIy" that |vhen complete immunization is not obtained the disease at least is 1nodi- / jed lin the direction of greater |nildness."

Union Evades Big Strike
In the South

Gadsden, Ala.-Trade union repre-
sentatives evaded a strike at the
Gadsden Hosiery Mills when 30 work
ers were discharged because they
joined union.
A strong organization has been
formed and unionists and the mill
management are negotiating rein
statements.
Local business men are awakening
to the anti-union plan, which means
pauper wages and low purchasing
power These business men are be-
ginning to accept the trade union
movement and indicate little sym
pathy with the mills policy Of victim
ization.
Low wage employers have alarmed
these business men and public off
cials by lurid statements of what will
happen IF agitators secure a foothold
in our peaceful community"
This graveyard peace, with its
long workday, low wages, illiteracy
and woman and child labor, is being
rejected by citizens, who are under
standing why employers do not want
"agitators" to meet their hands" +"

Fess Shrieks "Socialism"
In Plea For Judge Parker;
Green Makes New Attack

Westinghouse Senator Fess charg-
ed that Socialism" is behind opposi-
tion to confirmation of Judge Parker.
This stock phrase of stand-patters
was used by the Ohio senator in a
passionate plea for his colleagues
mot to blink at the fact that there is
an organized attack on the judiciary
of our country"
Senator Ashurst interrupted Mr..
Fess by stating that "No man is fit
to sit upon that bench who ratified
the yellow dog"
Senator Gillette, of Massachusetts,
defended Parker.
VIM. Green, president A. F. of L.,
renewed his attack on Judge Parker
in a letter to Senator Norris that
answers Parker's public defense Of his

said the yellow dog" has no place
in our government.

man, that Judge Parker, in the Red

Jacket case, went far beyond the doc
trines laid down by the supreme
court in the Hitchman case and that
he has, in effect, practically stated
the law to be that it is unlawful by
any means whatsoever (even though
there be no element of violence,
threat, fraud or deceit) to endeavor
to induce or persuade an employe to
join a labor union if such employe is
working under yellow dog
"The very vital question of human
rights and human relations in indus
try is involved in the decision rem
dered by Judge Parker in the Red
Jacket case" continued Mr.. Green.
"Labor's fight, in matters of this
kind, is not for labor alone All the
people are affected and interested
from practical, economic, political
and patriotic point of view. 1t is un-
wise to enforce the appointment to
the supreme court of man who is
so universally Objectionable as Judge

Federal Job Service Head
Sees Finding Of Work For
Idle AS Governments Duty

"Too little attention has been paid
human labor, which plays the most
important part for industry in pro-
ducing the finished product There is
no question but that the collection of
materials and produce is a proper
function of corporations and private
enterprises. But the dealing with the
human element, the movement of Ia
Dor, and the protection of it's rights,
should not be left to profit-earning
organizations or to fee-charging pri-
vate employment agencies.
There are many reliable private
employment agencies which give a
service equivalent to the fee charged,
and in the better class of these
agencies there is no intention to mis-
represent the nature of the employ
ment service advertised. | have no
quarrel with such agencies for they
supply a service which is necessary
and which the public employment
service in its present scope can not
cover.
'But the poor, unskilled, and
semi-skilled workman who is un-
able to pay fee should not have
to pay a fee for employment. For
him there should be service and
information without charge.
"The public employment service
should function so well that there can
be no opening or opportunity for the
human leeches and untrustworthy
agencies which prey upon the poor
unemployed Under an intelligent and
active public employment system
there is no need for private employ
ment agencies which cater only to un-
skilled and semi-skilled, and to skilled
mechanics"

Washington, ID. C. (ILNS)-Relief
of unemployment is an essential pub
lie function, Francis |. Jones, director
general of the Federal Employment
Service declared in a recent inter
view.
"If it is the duty of organized gov
crnment to provide schools In which
to educate its future citizens, is it
not reasonable to suppose that the
same governmental organization
should supply the machinery whereby
it's citizens may find suitable work -
Mr.. Jones asked. He went on to say
"a public employment service is
second in Importance only to the pub
lie school system in the happy, sue
cessful life of a nation. Just as the
school is a community center for the
preservation and extension of knoWl-
edge. so a well organized and conduct
ed public employment service is an
educational center or clearing house
fer employment and for accurate m
formation concerning employment in
the state and in the nation.
Jobless Man Helpless
"a man without job is as helpless
as a child without an education. Pub
lie sentiment is united in the belief
that a child should be given that
which he can not obtain for himself
Sentiment is now crystalizing into
the belief that the state must also
undertake this equally important
function of helping man to obtain
suitable employment.
"Nothing on earth is more impor-
tant to a man than job, and the pub
lie employment service undertakes to
find jobs for the jobless. Both indus
try and society need public employ
ment service.

April than in March. In statement
on the situation, as revealed by the
report, President William Green said:
There was a slight decrease in
unemployment from March to April,
according to reports from trade un-
ions to the American Federation of
Labor. Wage earners have been
much slower in getting back to work
than usual this year Reports for
March showed p per cent out of
work, while in April only 20 per cent
were out. This drop of only one per
cent is very small improvement for
April. In 1929, unemployment de-
creased 2 per cent from March to
April, and even in the unemployment
crisis of 1923 the improvement from
March to April was ? per cent. At
this time last year only II per cent
of union members were out of work,
and even in 1923 only 16 per cent
were out
Continued high unemployment in
the building trades, a slight increase
in the number out of work in metal
trades and in some of the building
materials industries are important
factors in the slow recovery. In
building 40 per cent are still out of
work, a decrease of only one per cent
since March when Al per cent were
out. This is a marked contrast to
former years. In 1929 the decrease
from March to April was per cent,
and in 1923 it was per cent. In
metal trades 10 per cent are out of
work this year as compared to Z per
cent last year and the Slight increase
since March is contrary to usual de-
velopments at this time of year. I'm
employment in printing trades is also
unusually high. Six per cent were
out of work in April, as compared to
per cent last year and 5 per cent
in 1928.
Cur figures are as follows:

Big Sums Lost By Unemployment
Responsible For Slow Business
TINY ADVANCE
In April Employment Seen
BY Green

Washington Wage earners have
been much slower in getting back to
work than usual this year" said
President Green in a statement bas.
ed on reports received by him from
various parts Of the country.
Reports for March show q per
cent out Of work, while in April the
number of idle were 20 per cent"
This is a gain Of but 10 per 1000
workers.
"This drop of only per cent is a
very small improvement for the
month of April said Mr.. Green.
Continuing high unemployment in
the building trades, slight increase
in the number out of work in metal
trades and in some of the building
materials industries are important
factors in the slow recovery
"In building 40 per cent are still
out of work, a decrease of only l per
cent since March, when Al per cent
were out This is a marked contrast
to former years.
in 1929 the decrease from March
to April was per cent, and in 1928
it was 6 per cent. Unemployment in
the printing trades is also unusually
high. In the metal trades 19 per cent
are idle, as compared to per cent
last year The slight increase since
March is contrary to usual develop
ments at this time of year"

WOULD PROTECT
LABOR IN RAIL
ROAD MERGERS

Washington II Responsibility for
caring for employees displaced by
railroad mergers is proposed by Sen
ator Hawes, of Missouri. He has in
troduced an amendment to the inter
state commerce act along these lines.
Standard railroad employees organ
izations show that these mergers,
which are generally promoted by
financiars, will wreck communities be-
cause of an abandonment of ter
minals and railroad shops. Real
estate values will be destroyed, and
practically every member of these
communities will be affected.

Chicago Frank Buchanan, former
congressman from this city and one

ton Bridge and Structural Iron
Workers, died of heart, disease at his
home here. He was 67.
He was a congressman from 1911
to 1917. While in congress he was
considered spokesman for labor on
social legislation. He was an old
line trade unionist and was well
known among North American trade
unionists and sympathizers.

In this city, and in Admission, after
nine years of anti-unionism, organ
izers formed locals of textile workers,
hosiery workers, braiders, wood work
ers, garment workers, molders, paint
ers, machinists, BARRIERS and other
crafts. This is typical of the entire
Southern Industrial field. The cry for
skilled organizers continues, and
marked gains are recorded by nation
al and international unions that have
responded to this plea
