UNITED SUPPORT
OF JOB CAMPAIGN
URGED BY GREEN
Workers in Big National
Employment Drive Giving
Most Valuable Service.

Washington, d. C. (ILNS)-De-
claring workers in the great job cam
paign of the American Legion, Amer
lean Federation of Labor and Asso-
citation of National Advertisers are
rendering a "most valuable social
service" President William Green, of
the A. F. of L., strongly urged uni
versal support of the campaign, in a
radio address broadcast over the
National Broadcasting Company net
work.
Pointing out that work has been Sc
cured for more than 100000 persons,
President Green said that the drive,
,, which aims to secure million jobs,
has been carried forward in most
successful way.
Unusual effort, unselfish in charac-
ter and patriotic in purpose has char
acterized the work of those connected
with this drive which has been made
upon unemployment" he said. "Com-
munities have been greatly benefited
and thousands of families and chill
dren dependent upon relief agencies
have been fed and clothed out of the
earnings of the breadwinner who has
thus been furnished an opportunity

Work For Nearly 100000 Found
In Great Employment Campaign
With New Cities Backing Nationwide United Effort
For Million Jobs Drive Sweeps Along With Increased
Headway and Nears Halfway Point.

New York City (ILNS)-Sweeping
along with increased vigor, the ma
tion-wide War Against Depression
campaign of the American Legion, the
American Federation of Labor and
the Association of National Adver-
tisers, is crowding the 100000 mark
and set to go over the half-million
point within another few days. From
then it will be race over the last
half of the stretch to the million
mark.
The most notable feature of the
campaign as it rolls up it's new totals
this week is the number of new cities
that are entering the list.
New cities have been reporting in
at from % to more than so day.
1t was announced at national head
quarters in the Hotel Biltmore here
that if all cities had entered the cam
paign at the outset the million mark
would have been passed two weeks
ago. 1t also was pointed out that al
ready the jobs found have taken mil
lions of dollars from the load carried
by charity throughout the nation.
More than 80 per cent of the 5000
towns and cities of the United States
having population of 1000 or more
have reported activities to campaign
headquarters, thus pointing to the
gradual spread of the war on depres-
sion over the country.
A number of states have far ex-
ceeded their quota of placements,
others have come up to it, while
others lag behind the procession.

WHAT NEXT?

A new tank car, called the DRY
Flo' car, developed by the General
American Tank Car Corporation to
handle economically bulk shipments
of dry commodities, loads through the
top and unloads through single out
let at the bottom. The unloading ma
chinery is inside the car. Endless
chain conveyors, operated by motor
in central dome on top of the car,
easily move cement, pebble lime,
dolomite and other substances diff
cult to handle. The new car is ex-
pected to eliminate the cost of pack
aging and labor of loading and un-
loading.

Congress Must Declare For or Against Sanity
Move On to Force House Vote Hull Connor Measure
Incorporating LabOrs Demand for Non n-Intoxicating
Beer.

Washington, D. C. (ILNS)-La-
boris bill for 2.75 per cent beer, with
all that such legislation means in the
way of increased employment, new
sources of. revenue and advancement
of the national welfare, will have at
least one more chance in the house.
Defeat of the Cullen amendment
to the revenue bill to legalize beer as
basis for new taxes does not end
the fight for 275 beer, as some trade
unionists have feared.
A petition to discharge the judi
ciary committee from further custody
of the Hull-O 'Connor beer bill will be
circulated after April z, and if it OBJ
tains the necessary 145 signatures,
the bill will be brought before the
house for vote. The Hull-O' 'Connor
bill is labor's bill, to all intents and
purposes, and labor is giving it full
support. 1t would legalize the manu-
facture and sale of 2.75 beer, as pro-
posed in labor's original bill, and in
addition contains provisions for tax
alton and to guard against return of
the saloon. The measure is sponsored
by Representative William Hull, of
Illinois, republican, and John T.
O'Connor, democrat, of New York.
Labor's Opportunity Here
The move to force vote on the bill
is labor's opportunity. If every mem
Der of the house is told without de-
lay where organized labor stands on
the beer issue, the chances are excel
lent that the committee will be dis
charged and favorable vote forced
on the bill. Labor, through labor's
national committee for modification OF
the Volstead act, has swung into
action, and is appealing to trade un-
ionists in every state to act at once
on the measure. Quick action, with
out moments unnecessary delay, is
imperative, it is emphasized.
The compelling arguments for 2.75
beer ade being summed up in the fol.
lowing main points in favor of OBJ.
tanning a vote on the Hull-O'Connol
/, bill:
/. Manufacture and sale Of 2.7s
beer will bring about the immediate
employment of hundreds of thousands
of workers now unemployed and re.

Outlaw Strike Failing

Scranton, Pa. (ILNS)-As predict
ed by officials of the United Mine
Workers Of America, the outlaw
strike of miners in the Scranton and
Shamokin anthracite districts is fast
petering out. Miners who struck in
violating Of contracts are rapidly re-
turning to work, and the collapse of
the whole movement is near. The
strike was called by insurgent lead
ers in an endeavor to bring about
equalization of work. The United
Mine Workers declared that the de-
mand was illegal and violation of
the contract between the union and
operators.

Woll, chairman of the labor division,

BE FAIR TO LABOR
During Crisis, Is Wright.
Plea at Job Campaign
Meeting

Miami, Fla. (lLNS)-in speech
at mass meeting here, Chester M.
Wright, head of the labor press sec
tion of America of the War Against
Depression, United Action for En-
ployment Campaign, now being con-
Quoted by the American Legion,
American Federation of Labor, Asso-
citation of National Advertisers and
the Legion Auxiliary, told the assem-
blage that the great tide of unem-
ployment had been stopped and the
employment curve is on the upturn.
He said that unemployed workers
at the rate of more than five a min
ute during the "a hours were going
back to work.
The speaker paid tribute to the va
rious organizations of the country
who have joined the four bodies spon-
soring the movement to find a mil
lion jobs for a million workers, and
especially the newspapers and the
radio, who have given unstintedly to-
ward spreading the news of the cam
paign.
Outlines Ways to Help
"Just little less than 1000 COM
munities have gone into action in
keeping with this program" the
speaker said, "and third of mil
lion jobs have been secured. If
| every community of more than 1000
population had gone into action at
the outset the million jobs would by
this time have been found"
The speaker outlined the various
ways by which even the individual.
could help in the campaign by giving
some unemployed person work, for an
hour or day.
| "Above all, he warned, "do not use
this emergency as lever to see how
much more you can grind out of 3
worker. Be fair. You are dealing
with human misery. You are making
war against depression. Do not ado
to the depression of our people by
laying undue burdens upon thei,
aching backs"
Drive Does Not Solve Problem
/ Mr.. Wright said that if each com.
munity meets it's own problem, the
national problem will be met" HI
declared, however, that employment
for a million workers does not solve
the fundamental problem Of unem
ployment; that even if all workers
went back to work that would mo-
solve the problem for 1--WE should be-
gin to produce great deal more thar
can be marketed and bought, so WE
would once more be on the road to un
employment. This campaign pro
claims but one thing-to secure job.
for a million unemployed Americans
now, in the belief that if million
jobs are found the tide will have beer
turned and unemployment will con
tinue as natural sequence"
/ The speaker closed by urging tn
citizens of Miami to take off thei
coats and enter the campaign zane
find jobs for your people"

Miners Strike Called In
Ohio and West Virginia
Union Executives Forced to Act By Operators Stand;
Mine Owners Refuse to Confer With Organized
Workers and Order for Big Walkout in Two States
Follows.

Columbus, Ohio (ILNS)-Forced
to act by the unreasonable attitude OF
the coal mine operators, who have
arbitrarily refused to confer with
their organized employees, executives
Of the United Mine Workers Of Amer
lea have called strike Of more than
$4,000 miners not under contract in
Ohio and the West Virginia Pan
handle.
The strike brings the number of
idle miners in the territory to more
than 5000, as 1900 went on strike
in February when operators in South
ern Ohio attempted to make drastic
cut in wages.
Decision to call strike was an
nounced after mine owners had
ignored an invitation to attend joint
conference here. The joint conference
was called by President Lee Hall, of
District s, United Mine Workers, with
a view to settling the Southern Ohio
strike, which centers in the Hooking
valley.
Operators Fail to Appear
The union leaders waited some time
after the joint conference was sched-
uled to begin, but no operators or
their representatives appeared.
The strike call was signed by Pres
ident Hall; Percy Tetlow, interna-
tional representative of the union;
James R. Mccormick, international
executive board member; David Wat
kins, vice president of District 6; G.
w. Savage, secretary-treasurer; Her
man Pherson, chairman of the Hook
ing valley scale committee; Sam
Phillips, chairman of the Cambridge
field scale committee; John Cinque,
chairman of the Eastern Ohio scale
committee; Thomas j. Price, chair
man of the Tuscarawas field, and
Pearl Parker, chairman of the POM
eroy field.
The Strike Call
The strike statement follows:
eve, the representatives of the
miners of Ohio and the Panhandle
section Of West Virginia, have been
petitioned that request be made at
all mines to cease work on April /,
1892, in the above districts and re-
main idle until contract be made
to govern wages and working condi-
tions with the United Mine Workers
of America.

contract cease work in compliance
with the petition above mentioned and
remain idle until further orders

Sees Danger to Children


Mr. Green emphasized the danger
to children which lies in the depres-
sion, warning that the nation will
suffer serious consequences in the fu-
ture unless adequate provision is
made to meet the needs of the pres
ent generation of children.
"In all cities, towns and commu-
mites there are thousands of children
who are the innocent victims of the
existing, tragic economic situation" !"
he said. even though special eff
forts are being made to supply them
with minimum amount of food it is
clearly evident that an adequate
amount cannot be and is not sup
piled to provide nourishment for
these children. There are many thou
sands who, because of isolation, So
cial circumstances and home condi-
tions, are absolutely neglected.
Employment for breadwinners,
therefore, means food, clothing and
shelter for children. The Importance
of this phase of the service rendered
by those connected with this drive
against unemployment can be realized

generation of underfed, undernour-
ished and underprivileged children
with generation of children prop
erly reared, adequately protected and
cared for in accordance with approx
ed standards of childhood"
Campaign Is Practical
The campaign for a million jobs is
a practical plan which can enlist the
active cooperation of all, Mr.. Green
said, pointing out that the movement
is not intended to deal with questions
of relief except through the creation
of work for the idle.
"The practicability of the plan
adopted becomes clear when it is
realized that every employer of labor
in every community can by careful
planning add additional workers to
those who are already employed" he
said. Each municipality can devise
ways and means by which additional
workers can be given employment.
Home owners can extend employment
to large number and in this way
the slack of unemployment will be
taken up in every community"
