ALDEN STRIKERS
Rank and File Should
Defy UMWA Takers
BULLETIN:

BICKNELL, Ind, Oct, 9. tBy
Nail the eve of strike de-
clared by the rank and file of three
strip mines near Winslow, the I'M
employed miners are forming coun-
ellis and the farmers of this yicin-
ity, faced with ruin, are beginning
OF organize in the United Farmers
League.
The three WinsIow mines were
recently consolidated. The men
who were taking coal from the
stripping shovels to the tipple had
been getting a wage Of S6.10 day
under a United Mine Workers con-
tract which does not expire until
April. The new company disre-
garded the contract and cut the
wages to $3.50 day. The men
struck. John L. Lewis personally
addressed the men, and ordered
them back to work while the case
was arbitrated. The msn then got
word from the Office Of District IL
of the UMWA, that they were
working for $3.50 until further
notice
They held meeting a week ago
Sunday and vote dto give the COM
pany five days to agree TO the S6.10
scale, or they would strike.
The Interstate Commerce Com
mission has entered the affair, and
has rule that because narrow
gauge railroad is used to transport
the coal to the tipple from the
shovels, this is raiIroading and not
mining, and the company does not
have TO keep to the contract.
Unemployment Is very severe
here. Some men have not worked
for four years. Groups have petit
toned Governor Leslie to do some
thing, and he has not answered
them.

Enjoying Our Parks

1t is worth noting that in this year of depression the
national parks have enjoyed an unusually heavy patron
age.
Last year more people visited the parks than ever
before-more than 2, 700, 900. But by Aug. 8 of this year
the attendance was well over 1000, 900, with every in
dication that the 1880 record would be broken by the
end of the season.
Probably many of these visitors were people who
would have gone to Europe if times had been better. But,
however that may be, the growing popularity of the
parks is an encouraging thing. If the depression has
persuaded more people to "see America first, it has ac-
complshed something worth while.
Brownsville herald. [volume] (Brownsville, Tex.) 1910-current, 1931-10-02

Nothing in all of the stories about the British naval
mutiny has been more interesting than the following lit
tie paragraph, taken from a cable dispatch from London.
"The men will be granted weekend leave and will
have a chance to talk over the recent events with their
wives, who are blamed by many officers in naval circles
as the real originators of the strike"
This provides an unsupported angle from which to
view the whole affair. Navy Jack is apt to be a married
man these days. He isn't the carefree, FOSTERING rover
of the old days. When his pay is cut the little woman
will call it to his attention just as she would if he were a
factory hand.
The British government, one imagines, may have a
tough time smoothing its naval unrest down if it fails
TO take the wives into account.

Scourge of Common Cold

DR.. John +. Barnhill, president of the American
Academy OF Ophthalmology and Otolaryngology, express
ed the hope that medical science may soon be able to
develop a serum that will lick the common cold; and
while this little malady does not rank as one of the great
scourges of mankind, there is little question that such a
remedy would cause about as much general rejoicing as
any that medical science would offer.
The common cold-and how apt that adjective is
causes an incalculable amount of misery. 1t has an amaz-
lngly high economic cost, too, through the number of
working days that it takes away from business and in
dustry each year. Furthermore, it very frequently paves
the way for more serious diseases. If medical men can
finally conquer it their names should go on the tallest
monument that can be built.

Air Transportation Progress

The steady increase in commercial aviation's safety
factor is strikingly illustrated in the recent report from
Assistant Secretary Of Commerce Clarence M. Young.
During the first six months of this year commercial
transport planes flew a little better than 10000, 900 miles.
and nine passengers lost their lives. In the first six
months of last year the planes flew less than II, 900, 600
miles and killed % passengers.
The only thing that stands in the way of a tremendous
boom in the air transport business is the fact that the
average man still has a faint, lingering fear of trusting
himself to an %airplane. Let commercial aviation hang IN
just a few more records like this one and the last traces
of that fear will vanish.

Many years have passed since the

sometimes removed simply because
they are so greatly enlarged as II

Much investigation has been lone
to prove that the infection in the
tonsils may be carried by the blood
