AS matter of fact Ice Cream is the
PERFECT ALL-YEAR-'ROUND
FOOD, but it is especially enjoyable
i'm the Summer.
Noon, Afternoon or Evening-There
is never an occasion when food is
served that Ice Cream will not fit per-

any society, any people, any place,

CREAM MAY BE EATEN WITHOUT

WIN ALL DEMANDS.
AT THE GLENMORE
Shoe Company Forced
to Sign Contract

NEW YORK. - Monday the reg

and Leather Workers Industrial
Union, and carrying all the demands
of the workers, was signed by the
Glenmore Shoe Co.
For months the employer has open
ly declared that after March /, he
would run an open shop.
The Boot and Shoe Workers Union,
the A. F. L. company union outfit,
has also boosted that its slave con-
tract would be signed instead of the
Shoe and Leather Workers. They
would give the employer reduction
in wages and anything else he wanted
for the privilege of collecting dues.
The crew stuck solidly to the Shoe
and Leather Workers Industrial
Union, and showed so much readiness
to put up battle for their demands
however, that all this scheming came
to nothing.
The crew here has voted to assist
financially the family of the unions

Mildred Shulman and Susie Yourok
were freed Six other cases were
postponed for two weeks.
Blumenthal, who is not a member
of the Unemployed Council, was
questioned by the judge as to the
activities of his daughter in the
Communist movement, alth Dug h
Blumenthals daughter was not
an,ang the defendants and her ac-
tivities had nothing whatever to do
with the case. However, Blumen-
thai is known as having several times
helped arrange bail for arrested
workers and Judge Simondle had it
in for him on this account.
Simondle is the judge who in his
zeal to serve the bosses made him
self ridiculous some time ago by
handing down a public spanking"
sentence against Margaret Staff, a
young worker active in the Interna-
tional Labor Defense, when she was
arrested for distributing leaflets of
that organization. The spanking was
to have been administered in court
by the girls father. The father,
however, declined.
Today, in sentencing Shirley Eltin
to years probation, this pervert
expressed the desire to spank her in
public.
