PICNIC PLANS
For Labor Day Celebration
Making Fine Progress

With unemployment so great things
things look rather blue this year for
any kind of affair, celebration, out
ing or whatnot, but even at that
things are looking up for local la
boris annual Labor Day celebration.
The committee is busy bunch these
days working out the plans for pro-
gram suitable for the day
They report having contracted for
the fireworks display, which as usual
will be right up to date, and they
have arranged one-lung old-fashion-
ed auto race to be run by cars of one
and two cylinders. Sure will be some
fun connected with this feature. Many
bids and propositions are being made
for concessions, showing interest is
aroused in Hamilton's labor celebra-
ton.
The committee reported they are
negotiating with the Brown Novelty
W., OlieiihidCi, OHio, 10 IuTHlSH Cne
rides and other features.
Country store committee reported
they will have bigger and better
store than ever.
Inman's Band is to furnish the
band concerts afternoon and evening.
The committee is looking around
for anything and everything possible
to make the days program a hummer.

make application for pensions. 1t is
believed those organizations main
tanning homes in Ohio will give their
support.
The law provides that the general
assembly shall provide the funds to
administer the law which is state
wide, operating through division for
the aged in the state welfare depart
ment, supplemented by county boards.
Officials of county boards receive no
pay for their services.
Adequate safeguards surround the
law, and there are penalties, includ-
ing jail sentences, for those who vio-
late its provisions.
With II states now having old age
pension laws, and with others plan
ming to enact similar legislation, the
sentiment for old age pensions has
become nationwide. Many persons in
Ohio who formerly opposed such leg
islation are now pledging their sup
port. Great numbers of old persons
in the present depression have lost
their life savings. They must be car
ed for under pension plan or sent
to the poorhouse to spend their de-
clining days the victims of harsh
public charity.

PURITY BAKERY
Continues Operation Under Conditions Unfair to Bakery
Workers Union
Protest Mass Meeting of Hamilton Women Called Fol
Next Wednesday Afternoon

There is no change in the situation
of the strike at the Purity Baking
plant, makers of Taystee bread, etc..
other than it is said that the num-
ber of workers employed has been
greatly reduced during the past
week. And the striking unionists say
that this is not all, that the number
will continue decreasing until none
are left unless the company officials
accede to the demands of the union
or fair wages and decent working
conditions in the plant.
The union journeymen say the bat
tie is just started, and it will be kept
up indefinitely, or until the Purity
Company "sees the light" There is
to be no let-up. The Hamilton buy
ers of baked goods are rapidly rally
ing to the cause of the striking bak-
ers and are refraining from buying
the non-union product of the plant.
The women of Hamilton, especially,
are recognizing the business of the
strikers demands. The bakers have
issued an earnest appeal to the
womanhood of Hamilton to support
them in their struggle for decent liv-
ing conditions, and the women are
responding nobly. A mass meeting
of the women of the city has been
called for next Wednesday afternoon,
Aug. IL, at the labor temple, to which
all the women of the city are invited
to protest against the actions of the
unfair Purity baking plant. Mr.. Jack

OLD AGE PENSION
CAMPAIGN BEGINS
Ninety Thousand Signatures
Will Be Secured on Peti-
tiOns to Initiate Law

Securing signatures to petitions to
enact an old age pension law in Ohio
will begin August Is. This announce
ment has been made by r. j. Donnelly,
chairman, and M. l.. Brown, secretary,
of the Ohio Old Age Pension Confer
ence, an organization formed by the
Eagles, the trade union movement,
Old Age Security League, individuals
and other groups interested in initial
ing the proposed old age pension law
Eagles Aeries and trade union
groups in their respective communi-
ties will get up local old age pension
committees, which will have charge
of the campaign of securing sigma
lures. Each district will be given a
quota. These committees, states
Chairman Donnelly, are urged not to
get their signatures indiscriminately,
but to confne them to certain sec
tions of their cities and counties.
This is asked for the reason that if
the general assembly fails to pass
the proposed law it will be necessary
to secure additional signatures to
supplemental petitions-another 90,-
O0O-in order to submit the measure
directly to the voters at the Novem-
Der election in 1888.
The committee in each community
in charge of getting names on petit
! tions will furnish three typewriter
lists of such signatures and send
them and the petitions to State Sec
retary NJ L. Brown, Springfield. 1t
is expected to complete the campaign
for signatures by September Is, so
that there may be sufficient time to
adequately. check them before sub
mitting the petitions to the secretary
of state.
The present campaign is part of
10 years of continuous work to enact
an old age pension law in Ohio. Much
study has been given to the proposed
law. A legal advisory board, headed
by Judge George B. Okey, has passed
on the various phases of the law and
checked it's constitutionality.
The law provides persons 65 years
of age or over are eligible to apply
for pensions. They must have been
c;t;,opc of tho TTnitad States and of
Ohio for Is years. They must show
the need for such a pension, the maxi
mum amount of which has been fixed
at $500 per year. Burial expense not
exceeding 500 is provided in the bill.
Residents of fraternal and other
similar institutions are privileged to

Zamford, general loraanizer of the
Bakery and Confectionery Workers
International Union, will be the prin-
cipal speaker and explain the cause
of the strikers. Other speakers will
also take part
The Bakers Union has been twenty
years building up decent working
conditions, humane working hours
and living wages for the members of
the craft in Hamilton, and it is not
going to stand idly by and see these
conditions destroyed in few days
to satisfy the profit-hungry stock
holders of one plant. The Purity
Company is the only baking plant
of consequence in the city which re-
fuses to deal with the union in it's
demands for decent living conditions.
All the striking bakers ask of the
Hamilton people is their moral sup
port-that they see to it that the
bakers union label appears on all
the baked goods purchased. If this
is given the strikers are certain of
ultimate victory.
Another thing, and one which it
might be we'll to remember, is that
the Purity Baking Company is owned
and operated by outside people. And
another thing that it might be well to
remember is that when the union
stamp is attached to baked goods
assurance is to be had that such goods
are baked in clean and sanitary sur
roundings.

First to Fly in Public.
(New York Times0

A 2 It Ewoud be impossible to write a history Of aeronautics and ignore Alberto Santos-Dumont, who has just died in his native Brazil. He stands out not because of his technical contributions but be- cause of his enthusiasm and imagination and courage that amounted to recklessness. His ten airships were familiar sights in France at the be- ginning of the century In these rather flmsy contrivances by no means so good those of Colonel Renard, Tissander and others who had pre- ceded him or who were his contemporaries, the dapper little Santos -Dumont would trail a guida- rope along the bouevards give boys their first glimpse of Paris from the upper air, permit young ladies to manipulate the controls and himself fire salutes from pistol while the President of France was reviewing parades. The captivated Parsians were convinced that the age of the arShip had ldawned.
 As birdman Santos -Dumont no less spec Itacular While the Wrghts still experimenting in secret, he ordered from the Voisins motor driven ox-kite wheels to fly tail first Like his airshps it marked no advance. But it flew, or lrather hopped and won for him fame, honors and prizes In fact, he was the first man who ever flew in public He probably had much to do with creating a tolerant atmosphere for inventors who were risking their necks in flying machines of their own invention and who were regarded as slightly insane After the Wrights had been forced into the open and he saw how flying machines should be built he became a record-breaker, With char acteristic generosity he gave his knowledge to the world Even blue prints could be had from him for the asking. But the new school of physicists, who invoked the aid of the laboratory in bringing
 both the airship and the airplane to perfection, left the tempermental sportsman standing still in
 a technical sense while it swept on to triumphs
 that must have dazed him. Yet he lived to see the
 nestling that he aided in matching grow into a
 powerful, mechanical bird able to wing it's way
 across the Atlantic in winds that would have dash
 ed him to death in his hacyon days.
