HOLD CONFERENCE
OF WIR AUGUST 20,
80 in PITTSBURGH
Wide Response from
Miners, Steel Workers

Miners and steel workers through
out Pennsylvania, Ohio and West
Virginia are responding with great
enthusiasm to the call of the Work
erS' International Relief to the Ma
tional Conference to be held at
Pittsburgh, August 20 and 30. In the
steel center, delegates to the con-
ference are being elected with an
eagerness that shows that the steel
workers understand the great i'm
portanee relief will hold in the COM
ing struggles.
Wage cuts have already started in
the steel industry and the standards
of living are being steadily forced
downward. Unemployment grows
daily. Scores of thousands of steel
workers will soon be faced with a
10 to 20 per cent wage cut. With
the worsening of their conditions the
steel workers are increasing in mil
itancy and are preparing to resist
the attack of the bosses.
The steel workers will meet with
the coal and textile workers as well
as the other workers at the confer
ence and discuss ways and means of
increasing the collection and distri-
button of relief, and decide upon the
methods to be used to build the
Workers International Relief into a
powerful mass organization capable
of providing adequate relief

evictions.
This is openly admitted in the
present plans of the Joint Emergency
Relief Fund Commission. These plans
call for only the most meagre re-
lief to small sections of the unem-
ployed, with discrimination against
Negro foreign born and transient"
workers. In the latter category will
be listed thousands of Negro work
ers who were brought here from the
South by various employers and then
thrown on the streets to starve.
Help will be restricted to regular
residents of Cook County" s. J. Dun
cant Clark, editorial correspondent of
the New York Times, quotes the COM
mission. This same writer admits
that Even with this limitation there
are many who believe the burden
will be heavier than the city can
carry"
No plans have been made to tax
the capitalists. All efforts are being
directed towards again taxing the
workers in the shops, as in 1880

STRIKE IN H. & M.
KNITTING MILLS

BROOKLYN-The workers of the
H. & M. Knitting Mills shops, went
out on strike yesterday when the
firm refused to divide the work
equally, and declared a lock out. The
workers of this shop have recently
joined the Industrial Union and were
determined to enforce union condi-
lions in the shop. When the strike
was called a number of the workers
who were not members of the Union
remained in the shop, however, when
the pickets surrounded the shop,
these workers also joined the ranks
of the strikers. The workers will be
on the picket line tomorrow morn
ing and will carry on the strike un-
til it is won.
The campaign in the dress trade
is developing. Additional shops came
down on strike today for union con-
ditions. The strike against the Ba-
cile Dress Co., Noble Dress and the
Needleman and Bremmer continues.
All needle trades workers are called
upon to report on the picket line to
assist the striking workers.

Emergency Makes Test
of Ones Mental Health

An emergency-either good or bad
tests the stamina of mental health.
1t is as difficult to meet brilliant sue
cess without losing ones head as 1t
is to meet misfortune and failure,
says e. Lee Vincent in Hygeia Mag
aZine.
Health embodies not just physical
we'll being, but also mental well be-
ing, says Miss Vincent. Most persons
are beginning to realize that to meet
each days program with interest is
as important as to meet 1t with
physical vitality. To be cheerful, toll
Grant and self-controlled, she says,
Is to give evidence Of mental health.
The gift Of mental health, Miss
Vincent informs us, Is not a chance
gift Of personality decreed at birth
by the within Of fate. 1t is rather to
be achieved through heathful living.
Sound health habits do much to
build the necessary stamina to meet
both physical and mental emergen-
cies.

Old-timers who recall with rem
iniscent thrills the six day "heel and
toe" walking matches Of four or five
decades ago will find interest In
defense of that gentle pastime,
which, it seems, was recently ira
duced by a physician, who called 1t
"a Glowing act"
A correspondent of the New York
Sun comes forward to assert that 1t
is a manly sport and much more
healthful than running, which, he
says, weakens the hearts and short
ems the lives of it's devotees. AS In
stances Of the healthfulness Of walk
ing he mentions Edward PaysOn
Weston, who lived to be nearly
ninety; John Ennis, who died at the
age of eighty-seven about year ago;
Dan O'Leary, who is still living, and
others whose names were as cele-
brated in the sos as are the names
of our present-day Olympic cham
pions
This department dabbles infre-
auently in sports. 1t is far from the
present purpose to urge recru-
descence of the professional walkers
of another day. However, bringing
up the subject may remind all of us
of something we have largely forgot
ten in these days of motor cars and
weekly street car passes. That is
that walking, whatever it's merits as
sporting attraction. Is mighty
healthful exercise and that If we
were to do more of 1t we should
probably live longer and be happier.
