LOOT REACHES 7 BILLION AS BANKS
FOLD UP UNDER ROOSEVELT DECREE
CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE

DDS. The Morgan bank had already
parted with its security affiliate
through which it had operated ille-
gally. Aldrich said that big change
was necessary in the banking system
and forthwith the Chase National
Bank divorced itself from its own
Illegal auxiliary.
Just yesterday, the liberal" World
Telegram showered praise upon Al
drich for his challenge to Morgan
and glorified the Rockefeller agent.
AS an aStute associate of Rockefeller,
Aldrich fastened to act before the
methods of the Chase National Bank
would receive an airing in a Senate
committee room. The National City
Bank, 1t was revealed, gave the son
Of Peru's president $415,0oO in con-
nection with big loan by the South
American country. Aldrich attacked
such shady bank deals.
How About the $4,000, 900?
But Aldrich failed to explain a
charge which beclouds new integ-
rity" Of the Chase National Bank
In his confessions, Aldrich failed to
tell about loan TO the Cuban Gov
eminent In connection with which
President Machado, the Wall Street
puppet ruler, personally received the
sum Of 100000. The charge that
Machado received very generous
gift from the Rockefeller bank is
known to many United States SEN
ators. On January IA, 1882, Senator
King asked for an explanation OF
this transaction, but up to this writ
ing, the masses Of the American
people are still awaiting an answer
from the Chase National Bank.
In large measure, it was the loans
to foreign countries which helped to
eat up the deposits of millions of
American workers. For the negotia-
tons Of these loans, the big bankers
received fabulous commissions. These
commissions were converted into SAL
aries and bonuses and also used for
speculation. American bankers have
allowed foreign loans, for which the
workers have been made to suffer,
to mount to the colossal total of
$2,547, 457 ,669. These defaulted debts
and the countries involved are as

BMT Economy Plan
Cuts Wages 40 p. c.
And Lays Off Many

NEW YORK. - Conductors and
trainmen on the B, M. T. have had
their pay reduced nearly 40 per cent
in the company's recent economy
drive, according to bulletin issued
by the B. M. T. Workers Group.
BMT workers have been working 7
days a week and doing special plat
form work in order to make ends
meet. The company recently ordered
all men on six day basis, abolished
the platform work and cut the mis-
cradle pay ten per cent in addition.
At the same time Dahl, chairman Of
the Board of Directors received over
$250,000 in bonuses and In the past
seven months the company has net
ted $4,026,1l2. AS result Of the
company's policy to economic at the
expense Of the workers, bonuses have
been entirely eliminated with the ex-
ception of the door accident bonus
which has been slashed in half.
One man operates eight or nine cars
where there was a man for every car
few years ago, resulting in many
more accidents.
Must Wait For Hours.
Extra men who must report for
work as early as or a. m. never
get more than two hours work a day,
after waiting around for many hours.
The BMT Workers Group warns
the workers of another impending
wage cut and calls upon the workers
to organize to stop the cuts, the
lay-offs and short time. For further
information BMT workers are urged
to get in touch with the Group of
BMT workers at Room 222, 799
Broadway.

MARX, TOO, URGED
LABOR DEFENSE!
Remember 1t At Paris
Commune Meeting

NEW YORK.-The call issued by
Karl Marx in the Spring of 1871,
which stirred the workers throughout
the world to come to the defense of
the brave workers of Paris against
the butchers of the boss-claSs, will
be dramatically remembered Satur-
day night, when revolutionary writ
ers and speakers will call on the
workers at the Paris Commune Gel
ebration at st. Nicholas Arena, Goth
st. and Broadway, to form a solid
working class fortress around the nine
innocent Scottsboro Boys whom the
boss-claSs is trying to burn in the
electric chair.
A large list of workers mass or
CARNATIONS have announced that their
members will attend the celebration.
Arrangements have been made by the
N. Y. District International Labor De-
Tense which is sponsoring the Cele-
bration to comfortably seat 1000 at
st. Nicholas Arena this Saturday
night.
Unusual Program

ebration includes in addition 60

Dlrd, let alone a man who in practi-
cally every case has a family to sup
port.
Many Worked &c Years for Co.
Among other cases know of, there
is one when the employe in question
has spent twenty-six years working
for the Interboro. He began his LIES
labor at the age of twenty on a job
which from that time to this forced
him to work nine hours a day Git
used to be more) and seven days a
week. OF course he took few days
off during those twerty-six years.
One he was sick for a few days and
the other time he attended his
mothers funeral.
Forced Retirement.
This man is now forty-siX and
head of family of eight; the Oldest
of whom is seventeen. Now after a
life time of sweat, with no money
saved chow careless of him, he only
had nine people to feed on salary
of thirty dollars week.. Hedley
tells him the good news; he can re
tire" on pension of seven dollars
week or take the consequences. In
other words lose his job and the pen
sion, both. For, do you see, the age
for a pension is seventy along with
the twenty-five years service.

ponds upon you whether capitalism
can save itself by making paupers Of
us all and kill us by the millions in
a new world slaughter
1t depends upon you how quickly
we can mobilize the masses to do
away with this insane, rotten system
where millions starve amidst plenty.
The capitalists have shown that they
cannot satisfy even the most elemen-
tary needs Of the masses. Only we,
the working class, can manage in
dustry in the interests of the masses.

BIGGER AND BETTER CURVES

The eating public is not giving the potato grower
4 square deal Fewer potatoes are being used as the
following report indicates:
Consumption of potatoes per capita has been
declining in this country since 1908. The De-
partment of Agriculture points out that this re-
auction in the of potatoes has not been
companied by an increase in the use of bread, as
wheat consumption has also declined.
The per capita consumption of potatoes in
lhe period from 1903 to 1908 more than IT'S
pounds For the period OF 1928 to 1888 1t was less
than $50 pounds. There increase in con-
sumption in 1882 compared with 1890, but it
not sufficient to offset the general downward
trend.
In this situation the Herald4Review knows ex-
setly what to do.

Footwear Styles Cause
Much Unpleasantness
Deformed Feet of American Women
Due to Modern Styles In
Street Shoes

st. Paul, Oct. cit is almost i'm
possible to find a normal foot
among modern American women,
physicians of the Minnesota State
Medical Association declare in a
bulletin on feminine footwear is
sued today.
Nearly all smart street shoes for
women, have high heels, pointed
narrow toes. They distort the foot,
produce bunions, corns and ham
mer toes and throw the body SER
iously out of balance" according to
the physicians in this bulletin. -
If the high heels and pointed toes
were reserved for dress up occas-
ions, it wouldn't be so bad, the doc
tors aver. But they are worn to
mill and to meeting, day in and day
out, pounding the hard floors of
homes and offices and the harder
pavements.
"A new style is needed they de-
clare" and probably it will have
to be set by some attractive film
favorite. Certainly the movies
could do more than any physician
or gymnasium teacher to set a
new style in foot beauty and COM
Portable shoes for women"
Attention is called by the physic-
ians, in this connection, to an ar
ticle on feet, by a Minnesota orth-
opedist which appears in the Octo-
Der issue of Everybody's Health
published by the Minnesota Public
Health Association.
I'm this day of deformed feet"
the doctors quote this article as
saying, lit is necessary to go back
to the foot of the baby or the saw
age to get good picture of a norm
al foot. The feet of American wom-
en-, even of college and high school
girls, fall shockingly short though
in other respects these same wom-
en- and girls may be fine physical
specimens. Their plight is due
mostly to improper, badly fitted
shoes. They are also victims of the
old fashioned notion that ladies
should walk with their toes out;
that toeing on a straight line as
the Indian does is awkward and
inelegant.
What happens to the feet when
their. owner makes a habit of this
insult to bones and muscles? The
weight is showed onto the high in
ner arch of the foot when it should
be on the short stable outer seq
ment. OF course the inner arch says
and gives way"
Comfort is said to dictate mod
ern styles In hats, pajamas,
shorts" hair cuts and one piece
bathing suits" the doctors remark
in conclusion.
