INJURED CHILD

NY. HOSPITAL
Catholic Nuns Deny
Help to Penniless
Mother
Long Island City. N. Y

Daily Worker:
Here is story OF a poor mother
whose husband is unemployed and
fought for democracy" in the world
war.
Six weeks ago her little daughter
of five fell and broke her leg, so
this poor mother took her to the
st. Johns Hospital, because it is
the only charitable institution in
Long Island City. This case would
require confinement of four weeks
for the correct setting of the leg"
the holy nuns told her.
During the first week the hos
pital authorities investigated and
found that this poor mother had
been in this hospital last year as
charitable case. At the same time
they also discovered that the little
child'S leg only really needed one
week to heal and anyway there was
oOAAACPONy pay UIldb
wanted the bed for their child
The holy nuns told this mother
that her child was not needed there
any more. The mother implored
the holy nuns to keep her little
daughter if only to properly nourish
her as she didn't even have a bottle
of milk home to feed her sick baby
when she returned home.
But no, you must go, was the
answer of the holy nuns. So the
Catholic Daughter of Mercy would
do nothing for her child and sent
her out of the hospital and in
formed her to bring the child to
the hospital every week. But how
could she bring her, for she didn't
even have the nickel carfare for
the train.

Cuts Pay Five Times

(By a worker CORRESPONDENT. ]

(By a Worker Correspondent
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich.-The
Crane Plumbing and Steam Supply
Co. have cut wages five times in
the last fifteen months, amounting
to 36 per cent of wages paid before
the cuts came. Many have been
laid off and only a few are left.
The men were working five days
week until Friday, April l. Then
orders came to divide the workers
into two groups and to let each
group work two weeks and lay off
two weeks. The salesman that gave
this information was next to the
head salesman in 1880. Now he is
just plumber. How is this for a

in its weekly summary.
However, ingot output has in
creased to an average of % per

with a little above IS per cent
last week. And there has been
q more generous flow of small
orders, particularly at Pittsburgh

ment of stocks and for immediate
consumption.
Tin plate contracts expected
from two large can companies
have been postponed until after

flare-up in the rails from time to
time yesterday. However, pend
ing the nearby United States

that the market will mark time.
Other Meetings Near
Directors of the Pennsylvania
Railroad, Bethlehem Steel and
General Motors, too, soon win
meet to act on their dividends,
with Wall Street almost certain
that readjustment of current
rates will be announced.
There is still considerable diff
ference of opinion in speculative
circles as to whether or not most
stocks have already discounted
the worst that may lie in store.
In the case of General Motors,
for example, assuming that the
dividend payment is pruned to 81
annually to conform to estimated
1881 earnings, the yield obtain
able at current levels is approx.
mately 8 per cent.
Security Loans Low
There certainly can be no ques-
ton of the thoroughneSs of the
liquidation which has taken place
in the past two years. The total
of security loans outstanding is
approximately $4,000, 100000.
This compares with $13,205,.
