Picturesque Old Stile
Lives Only in Memory

Where are the turnstiles of older
days? A travelling man who motors
over most of the highways and by
ways of New England says he does
not know where there Is single one.
Generally they were built into fence
line to debar vagrant cattle and per-
NIT the passage of humans. No two
exactly alike, they were picturesque
components of stone walls and rail
fences. Generally there was step
or two of stone which elevated the
stile base foot or two above the
ground.
To be sure, there are plenty Of COM
mercialiZed turnstiles at the entrances
of fair grounds and amusement parks
to facilitate the collection of tickets
and keep out gate-crashers. These,
however, have but slight relationship
to the rustic stiles of wood, immortal
lied in song and story as trysting
places.

Q.-What should be done when it
is suspected that an organization
calling itself union is communist?
A.-Communicate with the central
body in your city, consult the State
Federation of Labor or write to the
American Federation of Labor.
Q.-Are labor papers permitted to
use the seals of State Federations and
of the A. F. of L.?
A.-No. 1t was ordered by the
A. F. of L. in 1914 that the use of
seals should not be allowed and CEN
trail body seals were included in the
ruling. All organizations were in
structed to collect any seals in use by
papers. Moreover, no official" list of
papers is published by the A. F. of
L., for reasons similar to the reasons
actuating the federation in ordering
stoppage of the use of seals. But this
action merely strengthens legitimate
papers.

The Arabs brought it's products to
Southern Europe.
They called it 'kutn"-from which
the French took their name of "cotn."
The English spelled it out in full,
and we know it now as Cotton"
One of the treasures of India, for
which all Europe hunted long, was
this.
The Mohammedan conquests broke
up all the old trade routes from the
East.
1t was then that Venetian and
Genoese ira d ers started around
Africa.
Columbus daring venture over the
world was on the cotton hunt.
And the monstrous gamble of the
Spanish Armada was not only for
gold.
1t was also for that marvelous" fine
WOOL" the cloth of the aristocrat.
The plant grew wild, in thousands
of tropical islands.
| But only the people of India knew
how to spin and weave it.
Even yet, western nations have not
learned all the secrets of the art.
The "gossamer veils," which were
almost invisible when laid out to
bleach
The "turbans of thirty ellis of cloth,
weighing less than four ounces"-
These were called by merchants
"the shadow of a commodity"
Poets spoke of them as "webs of
woven wind"
1t is for similar reason that Eng
land, even today, is the center of the
cotton trade.
Cotton grows in many lands, wild
and under cultivation
But it grows best of all in "Dixie
land"-the South" of the u. s.
The whole world produced $780,
900 bales in 1927.

Special Protection for
Flock Of Rare Geese

Only one known flock Of greater
snow geese is still left In this coun-
try and these birds are being given
the most careful protection both by
officials Of the United States and Can
ada through the action of the migra.
tory bird treaty. This lone flock
spends its winters In North Carolina
and Virginia, where local game war
dens give 1t protection.
With the coming Of spring weather
in April the birds feel the urge to go
north and usually fly directly north
ward until they reach the st. Law
renee river. Here they turn north
east and follow the river to group
of small islands, where every year
they stop off for few days to rest
and feed. While taking their "breath-
er" they are under the care Of the
Quebec mounted police, who send q
patrol to the islands.
Hunters In the past have taken an
unfair advantage OF the birds through
resort to camouf1age. The stream at
this season Is usually full Of floating
ice and the hunters, dressed In white
aud riding In white motorboats, ap-
pioach close to the flocks before the
birds realize that an enemy Is at hand.
Because Of the rarity Of the greater
snow geese, particular pains are being
taken to perpetuate the flock and per-
haps bring about an increase which
will later permit hunting of the birds.
Other birds found on the islands
with the greater snow geese are the
Canada goose, brant, black duck, pin
tails, mallards and teals.

WAGE RECOVERY
PLAN ARRANGED

New York City (ILNS)-United
Textile Workers, in convention here,
are preparing to wage active and
energetic warfare for restoration Of
lost wages and for regulation of
hours of work as basis for improve
ment and in conformity with the rise
in prices of finished textile goods.
President Thomas F. Mcmahon, in
his report, urged support of unem-
ployment insurance as the only proper
substitute for ''haphazard doles" and
charity.
President Daniel J. Tobin, of the
teamsters and chauffers, told the
convention he would lead movement
against the shorter work week unless
it is to be had without loss Of wages.
Fewer hours, he held, will be bene-
fetal only if present wage rates are
maintained.
Vice President Francis J. German
recommended immediate demands for
a return of so per cent of wage re-
ductions and the eight-hour day.
The convention has before it a draft
of a new constitution which, the off,
GERS believe, will aid the union in gain
ing strength. Under it's provisions an
organizing campaign would begin at
once throughout the silk industry, in
Guiding Paterson, N. j., Easton and
Allentown, Pa, and the silk centers
of New England and the South. A
strike already has been ordered, to
call out 10000 workers, members of
the union, in Paterson. All Broad
Silk Manufacturers Association mills
in Paterson will be affected.

LABOR DEMANDS
BROWNS REMOVAL

Gulfport, Miss. (ILNS)-Accusing
Maj. Gen. Lytle Brown of prejudice
against workers on he Mississippi
levee system and his removal asked
in resolutions adopted by the Missis-
sippi State Federation of Labor in
convention here.
Holt Ross, long active in denounc-
ing Mississippi levee conditions, and
co-author of report to the A. F..
of L., was one of those active in
bringing the resolution to adoption.
Secretary of War Hurley was ask
ed to bring about the removal of Gen.
Brown as an officer in no way fitted
for the work to which he has been
assigned
Mississippi levee conditions have
been under almost continuous fire for
more than year. Conditions of "vir-
tual slavery" have been charged. A
display, in precept and practice, of
enmity toward these workers." is
charged and the A. F. of L. is asked
to back up the State Federation.
Payment of starvation wages for
long work days also have been
charged, together with system of
mulcting the workers out of the
meager pay they have been able to
earn. Every kind of tyranny usually
associated with peonage operations
has been charged repeatedly, with the
backing of affidavits, photographs
and records.

Truths POndered While
Riding at
Anchor
Then gently scan
your brother man
BY Mr.. MOdestus-

In recent year the world produced
102 million pounds of silk.
1t also produced 297 million pounds
of rayon.
Of wool there was a total produc-
tion of almost three billion pounds.
And that year the worlds produc-
ton of cotton was over IL billion
pounds.
That's where your clothes come
from That is why Cotton is King"
Cotton plants grew wild in the West
Indies.
Columbus found it there.
Cortez, conquering Mexico, found it
in use there.
Pizarro's conquest of Peru revealed
the presence there of brown cotton.
Cotton was mystery in the days
of King Solomon.
1t was handed from one trader to
another, coming from the Far East.
When Marco Polo followed the
trail of silk in China
He doubtless also wished very much
to know the secrets of the "fine wool"
The Germans call it "Baumwolle"-
which means "tree-wool."
This seems to be also the meaning
Of the East Indian name, "karpasi."
The Egyptians called it "gossy-
pion," of similar meaning.

AS THE WORKER
SEES HIS WORLD
Summary and Digest Of
Important Events Of the
Week. Mere and Abroad

Magnus w. Alexander, long head
of the National Industrial Conference
Board, non-union employers organ
ization, is dead at 62, result of a heart
attack. No successor has been named.
Unemployed stormed Toledo
A. d P. store, taking hundreds of dol
lars worth of groceries.
Cleveland, o., printers went on q
five-day schedule September 5, the un-
ion having voted in into operation,
326 to 274.
Autumn grain sowing in Russia is
reported by the soviets about half
the acreage sown at this time last
year, which may or may not be true.
July to August period brought an
employment gain of 30 per cent in
New York state, with factory pay
rolls climbing 81 per cent.
immigration entries for July were
90 per cent below the quotas for the
month. Only 633 visas were issued
out of possible total Of 1883, says
the state department.
Dictator Machado, Cuba, has lib
Grated "a political prisoners, of whom
ten are women. 1t is said more will
be liberated. Some of those new free
had been on the Isle of Pines more
than a year, held without trial.
Union miners are at work today in
Indiana under a new scale, Just
signed, providing for basic wage of
4.57R, the contract running three
years. The union took this scale for
three years in preference to a SIS
scale for one year.

Loss by Soil Erosion

The plant food removed from the
fields and pastures Of America every
year by erosion is at least twenty-one
times more than that removed by the
crops harvested, says the United
States Department Of Agriculture.
The plant food taken by crops can
be restored in the form Of fertilizer,
but that taken by erosion cannot be
restored, because this ruinous process
takes the whole body Of the soil, plant
food and all Land impoverished
strictly by plant food depletion, as
sometimes results from continuous
growing of the clean-tilled crops, is
not worn-out land: the only worn-out
land is that which has been so badly
washed by erosion that 1t would be
entirely futile to undertake Its recla-
nation.
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1932-09-23

But the United States porduced over
half of that-12,9560 bales.
In 1860 the South produced 3,849,-
900 bales.
The Civil War cut that to 2,269 900
bales in 1866.
But by 1870 it had increased again
to 4,352,000 bales.
In 1890 it had doubled to 1858 900
bales, and in 1911 it was over Is mil
lion bales.
The peak was reached, when in
1926, America produced 17,775 900
bales.
That is why some Englishmen were
favoring the South in the Civil War.
They wanted cheap cotton, and they
wanted no American tariff on English
cloth.
And that is why Yankee mechanics
went to England to get the secrets of
cotton machinery.
Even yet, the English cotton broad
cloth is choice commodity.
But the Yankees have taught the
Englishmen the lesson of mass pro-
duction.
English old-style mills are being
wrecked; others are being re-
machined.
Lancaster weavers - 10000 of
them--are in rebellion against new
methods.
But cotton will have it's way
against India, and Japan, and
America.
What cotton will do again to Eng
lish weayers-remains to be seen.

Livingstone Souvenir

There Is on exhibition at the Living
stone memorial. Blantyre, very d.
lapidated copy of Sechuana Bible
that has on 1t two Of Doctor Living
stones signatures. One of these is
dated 'Tete, 1856" that is, just before
he left on his first furlough. The book
has been badly damaged by white
ants. The chief interest, however, is
not so much the book as little slip Of
paper that 1t contains, on which, well
printed In blue ink, Is picture Of
Hamilton palace (now demolished).
1t seems clear that 1t must have been
long used as book-marker.

STEHLI MILLS

High Point, N. c.. (ILNS)-Four
hundred employees of the Stehli Silk

low the earlier High Point strikers in
winning back some of their lost
wages.
This strike is not proceeding with
the quiet order of the earlier walk
outs.
Tear gas was hurled into mass
of pickets by police who sought to
clear mill driveway. Hand-to-hand
fighting resulted in some minor

Munkacsy's Ideas

When Munkacsy, great Hungarian
painter. was lad, he was dissatis-
fed with representations Of the
Christ which he saw. They seemed
"effeminate personif1cations Of too
much humility" He wished to paint
''such man as could be severe to the
wrongdoer, even while he was for
giving and tender to the repentant."
To counteract the effect of the paint
ings Of which Munkacsy disapproved,
he himself painted pictures which
have Christ's life for theme.

Eight drivers are being considered
as contenders for front-row posi-
tons, and each is believed capable
Of wheeling at least ia miles an
hour out of his car.
Billy Arnold, 1890 champion, and
pilot of the Miller-Hartz Special,
Is the favorite to win the pole po-
sition, and many railbirds estimate
his speed at slightly over lib miles
an hour.
Lou Moore is being touted as a
strong contender for the pole. es-
pecially after his sensational show

around the giant track in his Boyle
Valve at an unof1cial speed Of 1T
miles an hour for three lsps.
Louis Meyer, 1928 winner, who
will drive the Sampson sixteen
cylindered car, is regarded able to
work his machine up to at least lie
miles an hour. Bryan Saulspaugh
in the Harry Miller sixteen is an
other threat. The sixteen has
T. N. T. under the hood. and they
say Saulspaugh can make it work.
Bob Carey in the Jadson eight,
Cliff Durant in the Miller Hartz,
Paul Bost in the Empire State spe-
cial, and Russ Snowberger in his
Hupp Comet are others upon whom
the speed spotlight has been turned.
Snowberger turned several laps
