VETERANS LIVE TO SEE
NEW DAY

II Frank Morrison had time to re-
member-between his multiplied tasks
Of keeping the record straight and
making necessary announcements
during the A. F. of L. convention
his mind doubtless reverted to the
"times when
For instance, there was the time
when the bosses in the Danbury Hat
ters' strike were trying to put Sam
Gompers, John Mitchell and Frank
Morrison in Jail.
Then, there was that other occa-
sion, when a man named Baer declar-
ed that God had, in his infinite wis
dom, committed the coal business to
Baer and his associates, thus winning
for himself the sobriquet of Divine
Right-Baer."
Later days must have been easy to
remember, when the war profiteers
were calling all members and lead
ers of organized labor by the handy
term of "bolsheviks."
Against this background, going
back almost half century, he saw
and heard Senator Robert A. Wag:
ner in warm, friendly and sympathetic
terms, giving credit to the labor move
ment for it's accomplishments during
the great depression; and the brusque
but not unfriendly declaration of
General Hugh S. Johnson, that there
is no need now for strikes.
And then there was the impressive
moment, when William Green, accept

so honorably filled for years, accept

making a success of the campaign

SEAMEN ASK FOR
CODE REFORMS

New York City (ILNS)-The Inter-
national Seamen's Union has an
nounced that it will recommend to the
national recovery administration the
inclusion in the proposed code for the
shipping industry of measures design
ed to protect the jobs and health Of
American seamen.
Resolutions adopted by the New
York port committee of the union
recommend that in addition to basic
wages and working conditions the
code specifies that ''no employer shall
be permitted to hire as member
of the crew of any American ship any
student or part-time workers; that
the jobs on American vessels should
be given to the men who have chosen
to make the sea their life work and
who plan to follow the sea continu
ously for living"
The demand for survey of sani-
tary conditions at sea is based on the
report of the Public Health Service
that about 10000 cases of tubercu-
losis a year were found among the
merchant seamen of the United States
and that more than $50 deaths re-
suited

CHILD LABOR AMENDMENT
DRIVE MUST GO ON

Child labor is being abolished under
the NRA codes, but the campaign foi
ratification of the child labor amend
ment must go on to prevent any pos
sible return of the employment OF
child labor after the present emer-
gency is over, Secretary of Labor
Frances Perkins told the Illinois
League of Women Voters.
From the humanitarian point of
view," Miss Perkins said, "there will
be need of child labor regulation when
the depression is thing of the past.
This is the time to make permanent,
through the amendment, a beneficial
change in standards so as to keep
boys and girls out of industrial activ-
tiles and give them the chance in life
to which they are entitled"
The secretary denounced child labor
and the sweatshop as two Of the
greatest evils in American industrial
life. Both, she said, are being elimi-
mated under the NRA codes. She de-

ATTACKS ON MIRA

Lawyers stepped in the law anc
musty precedents, who regard the
constitution as rigid thing, have SC
far found no comfort in the courts
as they endeavor to attack the ma
tional recovery program. Federal
Judge st. Sure heard the validity of
the agricultural adjustment act con-
tested in the California packers suit.
He said: ITO adopt the view that the
constitution is static and that it does
not permit change from time to time
to take such steps as may reasonably
be deemed appropriate to the eco
nomic preservation of the country is
to insist that the constitution was
created containing the seeds of it's
own destruction.
"This court" the Judge continued,
"will not subscribe to such view"
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1933-10-27

This fatigue, he asserts, can be pre-
vented by five minutes break every
hour.
Organized labor and students OF
industrial fatigue have long held that
frequent rest periods are necessary
in the interest of efficiency for all
workers, mental as we'll as manual
1t is a pleasure to note that this con-
viction has received added proof, SO
far as mental workers are concerned
by DR.. Cannon's researches.
Even employers who are blind to
humanitarian labor conditions would
undoubtedly give their educated pro-
letarians frequent brief rest periods
if they were convinced that increased
production, and consequently larger
profits, would result therefrom. Dr.
Cannon's instrument and the re-
researches based upon a large num-
Der of cases to which it has been
applied seem to afford the means of
imparting this conviction.

WE ALL. PAY TAXES

1t is estimated that 70 per cent OF
the national income is not subject to
direct taxation-income which comes
from government bonds, or is exempt
from taxation because it's owners
total receipts are below the levels
touched by the income tax law.
This explains public laxness about
taxation. A majority feel that it is
no trouble of theirs-that it is a
problem belonging strictly to that
minority which must pay direct
taxes.
We all pay taxes, if we earn a
thousand a year or hundred thou
sand-and the bulk of governmental
income comes from those whose in
comes are in the lower brackets.
We pay taxes when we go to a
movie, buy food, turn on an electric
light, take a spin in the car, GO fish
ing or do many other things.
Tax-freedom, whether for an indi-
vidual or business, is a beautiful
illusion. If your income falls within
the 70 per cent mentioned, don't be
pleased about it. You're paying your
share of taxation.

PRESS FREEDOM NOT
ENDANGERED

Some newspaper publishers are all
excited over the alleged danger to
freedom of the press in the MIRA.
They profess to see the death of press
freedom in the act and are even con-
juring up the bogey of press censor
ship by trade unions.
"The application of press censor
ship by organized labor is possible if
the newspapers submit to the demand
of unions as expressed in the MIRA" "
said E. H. Harris, secretary of the
American Newspaper Publishers
Association, in attacking the recov-
cry act as a peril to the press.
Mr.. Harris and others are talking
sheer nonsense. Unions have never
threatened the rights Of free speech
and there is no danger they will.
Neither is there any Danger TO press
freedom in the recovery act. Secre-
tary of Labor Perkins emphasized
this in rebuking a labor department
concilator accused of threatening an
Alabama editor on the ground he was
printing articles in violation of MIRA.
Said Miss Perkins to the conciliator:
please keep in mind that you have
no right to tell any editor what he
may or may not print in his news
or editorial columns. There is moth
ing in the MIRA, or any other federal
statute, which gives you such a right. :"

REST PERIODS AND FATIGUE

The relationship between indus
trial fatigue and efficiency and the
necessity of frequent rest periods in
the interest of both the health of the
workers and the output in commodi-
ties and services have received en-
phatic confirmation from the inven-
ton of a notable instrument by the
eminent British doctor, Alex Cannon,
K. G. A.
Believing that there is definite
connection between various mental
activities and the movement of the
chest in breathing, DIR. Cannon found
that there was no apparatus capable
of measuring these movements. He
therefore exercised his inventive ca
pacity and produced an instrument
to meet the emergency. The instru-
ment, which bears the rather formid-
able name, the Psychostethokyrto-
graphmanometer, measures thought
processes, including the mental power
of endurance, and enables graphic
records to be taken which record the
individuals reaction to various stim-
uli.
After many experiments with the
instrument, DR.. Cannon reports that
prolonged mental concentration re-
duces the proper action of the lungs
and the amount of oxygen in the
blood, SO that mental fatigue results.

Special to the Democrat)

Stamford, Feb. 20-A pair of popular Waterbury boxers will an- sWer the bell against worthy op- ponents when Al Caroly, match maker for the Stamford Sporting Club, present an attractive profess sional battle bill at Columbus Hall here tomorrow night at 8:30. One of the Brass City battlers, Joe Vignali, meets Phil Baker of Nor walk, in one of the double star bouts of eight rounds at the light weight poundage.
 The other walloping Waterbur- ian slated for action is Eddie Carr who tangles with Gene Bryan of Norwalk in the six-round semi-final fray at 175 pounds. Both Vignali and Carr are bound to find the going far from easy in their respective rumpuses, especially is this true of the star bout in which Vignali, who has fought his way into favor here, faces 8 clever and hart hitting foe in Baker.
 In the other star eight-rounder Billy Bridges, New Canaan "Can- non," will be gunning for revenge over Willie Lewis of this city. Lewis tossed a moth on Bridges fistic aspirations by knocking him out two years ago and Billy has been pining for revenge which he is favore dto have.
 Two good four-spots round out tomorrow nights bill. In one Jim my Lorenzo, 1881 New York Col den Glove winner, meets Jimmy Street of Norwalk. while Battling Ewing of New Haven. faces Red McNulty of New York in the other. Prices have been reduced to $1.5O ringside reserved and 75 cents gen. eral admission. Tickets may be obtained at Fenerty's Smoke Shop.
