FOR WOMEN-CHILDREN

New York. Elimination of night
work in cotton mills by women and
children by "an overwhelming ma
Jority of IS per cent" of this indus
try is announced by the Cotton-Tex-
tile Institute.

TOO MANY PAPER
MILLS BLAMED
FOR IDLENESS

Montreal.-Paper companies built
too many mills and unemployment is
the result of this excess plant ca
pacity, said John P. Burke, president
international Brotherhood of Pulp
Sulphite and Paper Mill Workers, at
it's biennial convention in this city.
Asserting that there are at least
100000 unemployed in the United
States, Mr.. Burke urged that if gov
ernments fail to provide work serious
consideration must be given unem-
ployment insurance.

CONTRACT UPHELD
BY N. Y. COURT

New York.-"Supreme Court Judge
Collins refusal to annul contract
between our brotherhood and the
Bookbinders' Trade Association is the
best answer to scurrilous attacks on
our organization" said John B. Hag-
gerty, of Washington, president In
ternational Brotherhood of Book
binders.
"Our contract is with these en-
ployers, whose $500 workers were
unorganized," said Mr.. Haggerty.
THE contract was indorsed by our
last convention and yet our Bindery
Women's local, Mary Murphy, presi-
dent, asked Judge Collins to annul
the contract. The plaintiffs claimed
that their property rights" were
affected.
The contract calls for a reduction
of hours from 48 to "A hours within
year, with gradual increase in pay.
The plaintiffs had no members in
these trade shops. They refused to
organize them, said President Hag-
gerty.
Judge Collins ruled that the broth
erhood infringed on no ones rights,
although perhaps, it might, with
warrant, have taken affirmative steps
to rebuke the local or it's officers for
interfering with the contract"
"This decision" said Mr.. Haggerty,
ANSWERS slanders circulated among
North American trade unions that
our brotherhood officials were at
tempting to form a company union"

PENSION LAW VOID
ON LEGAL GROUNDS

Concord, N. H.-The state supreme
court outlawed the state old age pen
sion law on the ground that it i'm
properly provides for the administra-
ton of relief by officers of the pro-
bate court, thus delegating an exec
utive function to the judicial depart
ment.
The court held that old age assist
ance, if provided, would be constitu-
tional if administered by officers of
an executive department.

TREAT TOMATO SEED
FOR sDAMPING-OFF'

"Damping Off" Of young tomato
plants in hot-beds or boxes may be
prevented by simple method Of seed
treatment, says DR.. T. M. Currence,
.horticulturist, University Farm. The
method, worked out by the New York
agricultural experiment station, is
described as follows: Make a solu-
ton, using cooper sulphate at the
rate of 1 pound to 8 gallons of water.
Soak the tomato seed in this solution
for at least 10 minutes, and not more
than "a hours.
So far the method is recommended
only for tomatoes. It sould not be
used on other seed until further ex-
detrimental work has been done. In
asmuch as tomatoes, both for home
use and market, the discovery of this
method Of preventing "damping off,
is of considerable Importance.
The "damping off" disease attacks
the young plant at the surface of the
soil, causing the stem to weaken and
rot off. Several other methods for
combating the disease have given
fairly good control under Minnesota
conditions, but are not as simple and
easy to use as the new seed treat
-ment, says DR.. Currance.
