SUN PROTECTS BLANKETS
FROM MOTH DESTRUCTION
Sunbath Will Keep Comforts In
tact During Summer Months

Housekeepers who give their down
comforts good dose of sunshine be-
fore they put them away for the sum-
mer, will be interested to know that
in giving them a sunbath they are
using one of the most effective meth
DDS of protecting their treasures from
the ever dreaded moth. In connection
with inspections of materials used in
filling comforts, pillows and other
bedding, made recently under the
State Bedding Law, number of
moths were found in some of the ar
ticles. These were placed in covered
glass jar and kept in dark cupboard
where several generations lived and
fourished for five months. When the
jar was brought out again and ex-
posed to the direct sunlight, life de-
parted from these pests that are the
despair of every homemaker.
When the Maryland Bedding Law
was passed by the State Legislature
in 1924, it's enforcement was entrusted
to the State Department of Health
The operation of the law closely
parallels that of the State Food and
Drug Law. Under the Bedding Law,
manufacturers and dealers are re-
quired to state on label attached to
each of their products, whether or not
the material used in filling mattresses,
pillows, comforts, quilted pads and
other articles of bedding are new, or
are secondhand. They must also state
the kind of filling used-wool, cotton,
feathers, down, or the various combi-
nations or mixtures of these or of
other materials. If the articles are
second hand, that fact must be indi-
Gated on the label and they must be
sterilized or disinfected before they
can be offered for sale. Stamps, bear
ing the name of the Maryland State
Department of Health, which must be
attached to the labels, are supplied by
the Department. Nearly half a mil
lion of these stamps have been dis
tributed during the past year.
Frequent inspections of manu-
featuring plants and of retail concerns
are necessary to see that the require
ments of the law are met. A check
of such inspections made recently by
the Department, showed that over
three thousand articles which failed
to comply with the law had been
found during the last year in retail
and secondhand stores-fve hundred
of them in one month-and the pro-
prietors were notified that the articles
would have to be withdrawn from sale
until the requirements of the law
were met. Prosecutions are resorted
to only after repeated warnings have
failed to bring about compliance with
the law. One of the most recent, was
that of dealer who was found guilty
of selling second hand, unsterialized
pillows. Mr.. j. Davis Donovan, Chief
of the Division of Legal Administra-
ton of the State Department of
Health, who has charge of the admin
istration of the Bedding Law, said
that housekeepers could help in secur-
ing compliance with the law, if they
would carefully check back on the
purchases to see that the articles they
buy are duly labeled and stamped
when delivered.

In Memory of the Deceased
My dear mother has departed this life,
A voice beloved is stilled;
There is vacant place in our home
Which never can be filled.
But we know her dear Master has
called her
To the heavenly home
Where she is free from all sorrow and
care.
We all hope to meet her in heaven
With the angels above.

for the $3.50 in prizes for bands in the
firemen's parade Monday, the Fire
mems Band Of Bedford, Va, has OBJ
tanned permission to give a public con-
cert Sunday night on the Capitol plaza.
It is one of the few civilian bands in
the history OF the Capital to receive

cation is accorded q good chance to
win the 5000 first prize or $3.50 second
prize for bands in the firemen'S parade.
Plans for the parade, according to
the firemen who are managing the
details, are practically completed, with
between IS and 20 volunteer fire COM
panies from six States nearby having
accepted invitations to attend and
practically all railroads into the Capt.
tai offering excursion rates to tourists
coming here for the annual Labor day
show.
A line OF marchers and machines
larger than any other firemen's parade
is forecast by Sergt. A. j. Bargagni,
marshal OF the parade.
Band prizes and rewards for drum
corps showing, prizes in the latter
class being 500 for first place and $50
for second, have attracted, he reports,
a large number of f1remen's, civilians
and American Legion organizations
from Washington and nearby sections,
which will serve to keep the marchers
in music and time at close-spaced in
terVals.

UNEMPLOYMENT FACTS

Never since 1919 has the number
of workers employed in industry been
as high as it was that year.
The number of workers has dropped
away since that year, which was the
year when mass production really got
into full bloom. Until then, while
mass production was being developed
employment gained.
Since 1919 wages per employe have
gained little, output has gained
a little, output has gained enormously
and numbers of unemployed have
grown. The machine has been pour
ing out it's fruits-to those who get
them.
Last week this issue was discussed
at length. We shall continue its dis
cussion, adding facts to the record.
Always we come to this: Perma-
nent remedy lies in thorough organi-
zation of industry to the end that in
dustry may be conducted in such a
manner as to prevent the abuses of
the past, while realizing all the bless
ings of the machinery at hand and to
come.
Left to go its way, as in the past,
we can look forward to evils multi
look forward to such a realm of we'll
being as the world has never known
or dreamed of.
Why not do the right thing?

STRIKE OPPONENTS
WANT MILITARY AID

Danville, Va. = Danville textile
strikers are resisting every attempt
of "disinterested citizens" to turn
this city into an armed camp under
the guise of protection of life and
property"
Charges of law violations have
been made against the strikers, but in
not single instance have these
charges been upheld in court. The
plea for troops to "cope with the
situation" is answered by the union
lists challenge to point to one case
where a striker has been convicted.
The strikers relief committee were
having difficulty in securing coal and
kerosene for heating purposes and
farmers in this vicinity have granted
permission to cut fuel wood on their
premises. Groups of workers go to
the woods and the fuel is cut into
stove lengths by a power-driven saw
which has been rugged up. A few
nights ago the wood saw operated
until long after midnight and rs
truck loads of wood was distributed
to families who are having their gas
cut off because they are delinquent.
