all Of Reading, Pa.
The votes were tabulated and cert
flied by Fred M. Wilcox, representa-
tive of the National Labor Board,
who conducted the elections. The
votes were computed by a committee
consisting of Wilcox, two represents
tives Of the manufacturers, and John
w. Edelman, representing the Amer
lean Federation of Full Fashioned
Hosiery Workers.
Union Halls Result
Following the counting of the bal
lots, Edelman, Edward F. Callaghan,
Henry I. Adams and Harry Boyer
issued statement hailing the result
as proving beyond doubt that the
Reading hosiery workers are for the
union. The statement said:
"The secret ballot overwhelmingly
justifes the unions claims that the
great majority of the hosiery work
ers of Reading definitely and sin
cerely seek union recognition and
union representation.
Despite the frightful weather,
virtually all of the eligible workers
voted
"The union lost none but two small
full fashioned mills in the rural sec
tions where it was easy to intimidate
the women employees who had little
contact with the union. Seamless
mills that were lost were those where
strikes had been Ineffective"

The people of the nation had been
praying for action, the kind of action
which is being taken now. They
wanted something done. They de-
manded the presentation of formula
which would, in some degree, at least,
prove to be remedy for the economic
ills of the nation
"Never before in the history of any
| nation have those in charge of the
government embarked upon an eco
nomic adventure as fascinating and
far-reaching as this one, under the
inspiration of the industrial recovery
act, upon which our own government
has embarked.
"The government, through partner
ship with industry and labor, is doing
what industry refused to do separ-
ately and of itself. For years labor
had urged and pleaded that hours of
labor be shortened and additional
work opportunities be created as the
only way by which the slack of en-
employment could be taken up.
"The government is doing exactly
that very thing. Through the devel-
opment of industrial codes Of fair
practice work is being allocated. A
wider distribution of the amount of
work available is being made through
a reduction in the hours of labor.
For obvious reasons wages must be
increased as hours of labor are re-
duced. Otherwise the balance be-
tween producing and buying power
would be destroyed.
Reduce Hours, Raise Wages
1--WE may not be fully satisfied with
all that has thus far been accom-
plished. I know there are still mil
lions who are unemployed, and |
know that there are millions who are
suffering as a result of unemploy-
ment.
at is clearly the obligation of the
government to go forward with its
, industrial recovery program reducing
the hours of labor to the point where,
in operation, work opportunities will
be further created so that all who are
willing and able to work may be ac-
corded the privilege of doing so.
"With such reduction in hours
wages must be lifted to higher level
so that purchasing power will be re-
stored and thus steady flow of man.
ufactured goods from the point of
production to the consuming market
will be maintained.
Watch Blue Eagle Employers
"The constructive economic pro-
gram can be advanced in an acceler-
ated way if the people of the nation,
individually and collectively, will do
their part in full and compete way.
merchants and manufacturers who
have been given the Blue Eagle en-
blem should religiously discharge
their obligation. There should be no
attempt to evade the performance of
their duty or to modify the terms of
the contract they entered into with
the government.

Work Relief Substituted
For the Dole in Australia

Melbourne, Australia.-The Vic
torian state cabinet has decided to
institute a relief work, instead of q
dole, along the lines of system in
operation in New South Wales. 1t is
expected to provide part-time en-
ployment for about 10000 men now
iobless.
The basis of the scheme is that ex-
listing sustenance allowances shall be
given to unemployed persons in desti-
tute circumstances, who are not ply
sically fit to perform labor on relief
works, and that unemployed persons
who are physically fit shall be given
part-time work in place of the pres
ent dole system.
Single men will be paid 8 shillings
weekly, married men without children
13 shinningsh and men with families
2 shillings 6 pence for each child up
to eight, maximum of 33 shillings.

| Washington.-Unswerving support
of the national recovery act by every
person in the United States was urged
by William Green, president of the
American Federation of Labor, in a
radio address here over National
Broadcasting Company's network.
He stressed the fact that the pur-
pose of the act was to put MILLIONS of
jobless back to work and raise mass
purchasing power by higher wages,
| which was being accomplished by the
presidents voluntary agreement and
the various fair competition codes.
Mr.. Green said, in part:
"The law was passed by congress
for the purpose Of dealing with a
great emergency. Unemployment had
constantly increased over a period of
years until more than twelve million
people had been forced into idleness.
Approximately sixty million people
were seriously affected, all of them
suffering in varying degrees from the
effects of widespread, continuous un-
employment.
"The chief objective of the act was
to increase work opportunities
through reduction in hours of labor
and to increase buying power through
innraacac in Mauac
Drive on Unemployment
ut was clearly the purpose and in
tention of the sponsors of this legisla-
rion, as we'll as congress, to launch a
great offensive along a nationwide
front upon the distressing unemploy-
ment situation which prevailed
throughout the country through the
operation and application of the pro-
visions Of the industrial recovery law

the act reflects, in most clear and
convincing manner, the broad, COM

who are suffering from enforced idle
ness is reduced to minimum, and if
buying power is increased so that the
consumers demand for manufactured
goods will be created corresponding
with industrial facilities of production

"There is one fact in this whole
economic procedure which stands out
boldly. 1t is the fact that action is a
reality and that the horrors and evils
Of unemployment are being attacked
in most vigorous and uncompro-
missing way.
Red Tape Abolished
much red tape is being cast aside
in the straight drive which is being

to human contacts where re-
straint, refinement and con-

This mingling with other cul-

polite. And surely this mater
ialistic world of ours is in need
of gentlemen, as we'll as ladies,
as much as it is of anything
else.
Developing a boy into man.
hood is a singularly gratifying
duty. Few boys exist who will
not respond to the higher
values of life, even if they seem
difficult and self-centered in
the beginning. Every boy can
be reached, so to speak, and
once you tap the honor and
chivalry side of his character,
one need have little worry
about his future.
The time to start a boy on
the right road, however, is as
early as when he begins to talk

are never entirely eradicated.

Hot breads and pies have re.

bread is light and pie crust is
crisp, neither is likely to pro-
duce digestive upsets if eaten
slowly and not to excess. Chill
dren, however, are better off
eating very little pie and only
cold bread, especially when the
latter is toasted or a trifle stale,
because, in order to chew it
and moisten it, the Salivary
glands are brought into active
play.

South, double: North. seven
hearts: West, double; all pass.
AS North had not shown mo
losers" in clubs, the opening
lead was the K of clubs. Dummy
trumped. To avoid losing one
diamond trick, dummy's ace OF
spades was led, then the de-
clarer ruffed a low spade.
Dummy ruffed a return lead OF
clubs, and the declarer ruffed
dummy's z of spades, taking
care to use his 10 or, for all he
knew, West might overruff him,
as East might have all remain
ing spades.
When VESTS K of spades fell
on the third round of that suit,
dummy was left with the j, 8
that could pick up East's lone
10, and allow the declarer two
discards. AS these two oppor-
tunities to discard would en-
able the declarer to rid his hand
of his one club and the only
losing diamond, trumps were
pulled at once. Then the de-
clarer spread his hand, claim
ing his grand slam contract
fulfilled, doubled. His side had
won three spade tricks, two
ruffS of clubs by dummy, two
ruffs of spades by South, two
diamond leads and four trump
leads, or 13 straight tricks.
If North had not redoubled
the double of six hearts, the
hand would have been played
at a doubled small slam. This
would have been scored as fol-
lows: Six-odd at doubled value,
800 points; one overt k,
doubled and vulnerable, 200
points; 100 honors; 750 small
slam; 500 points for rubber.
Total, 5000 points.
With West doubling the grand
slam make the score was: 420
points; 100 honors: $3.50 grand
slam; 500 for rubber. Total,
3,270 points. Had North VEN
tured to redouble, the score
would have been $500 points.

what would have been made by

How to Make a Man Out Of
Your Son
It's not the easiest thing in
the world to make real man
out of your son. Indeed, it is
an exceedingly difficult and
often confusing job. For we
tend to be lenient when it
comes to censuring our own
flesh and blood. Added to that,
there is another difficulty, the
ego instinct in all of us. which
prompts the feeling that our
own sons are bound to be bet
ter than the average.
Some boys are timid, shy, re-
firing; others are bold, doml-
neering, daring, forward, adven-
turesome. Upon the type of
character your own son happens
to possess depends the kind Of
bringing-up he should have.
At the outset every mother
and father should settle in
their own minds what kind of
a man they want their boy
eventually to be.
Although a mother in par
ticular tends to make excuses
for her son, and is drawn to
him by the closest of loving
ties, too much tenderness un-
doubtedly rebounds to his un-
doing. A boy requires a GER
tain amount of roughage in
the treatment accorded him,
just as he requires it in the
food that is to build powerful
muscles and a sturdy frame.
A mans success depends large
ly upon his self-confidence, his
fearlesSnesS, his persistence in
overcoming difficulties and his
willingness not only to work
but to work hard. The aggres-
Sive personality surely has a
better chance of success.
On the other hand, to make
{ of our sons typical rough
necks," if I may be pardoned
the phrase, is not desirable,
either.
If a boy grows up caring only
for competitive sports, wrest-
ling, prize fighting and the like,
his aggresSiveness is likely to
be too pronounced. A certain
degree of tenderness, of senti-
ment and of fine feeling gen.
orally are also necessary to
mellow bis nature and to make
