Warehouses Filled; Rubber Workers Face Layotffs

AKRON, o. - Rubber workers OF
Akron, Ohio, the main rubber manu-
featuring center o fthe world, will
face a winter of unemployment. Ev-
erything indicates that the ware
houses are now filled to capacity. So
now begin navy layoffs in the rub
Der industry.
Hundreds of workers are being laid
off each week at the Goodyear, Fire
stone, Goodrich, ana other rubber
plants in Akron. So serious is the
situation that Mr.. Litchfield. presi-
dent of the Goodyear Rubber and
Tire Co. has announced that he will
make personal talk to his employees
over local radio station explaining
the dismissals taking place at his
plant. The topic of his broadcast
will be "Lay-offs at Goodyear"
The present lay-offs follows spe-
cial meeting of rubber barons in New
York City where the situation in the
industry was discussed. A manufac-
ttrers' code for the industry was also
supposed to be drawn up at the New
York meeting. However, the meeting
Of rubber manufacturers resulted in
a failure to agree upon code, which
is further indication that prospects
are not bright in the rubber industry.
To protect the rubber workers dur
ing unemployment and to give them a
decent minimum wage the Rubber
Workers Industrial Union with offices
at 401 Main Street, Akron, Ohio, in
consultation with hundreds of workers
has drawn up the rubber workers
code. This code was unanimously ap-
proved by over 1,500 rubber workers

Even though we are working for
such low wages. my boss has raised

According to my views and talks
with gas station attendants and en-
ployees, the only way to fight these
conditions is by the workers organ

ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS
Diet in Anemia

DlEL III ttuCAIlA
S.. Philadelphia: You seem to
know so much more than we do about
diet that we hesitate to advise you
How the devil do you know that
starches and ''proteids" should never
be eaten together? Don't you know
that the very bread you eat is a
mixture of starch and protein. From
your use of the obsolete word proteid,
instead of protein, it seems that you
have been reading some naturopathic
or monodiet literature" Butter and
sweet cream have no iron and are
not indicated in anemia. But the way
how do you know you are anemic?
Did a physician examine you or are
you just guessing?
Nervousness
nm: The persplration, rush of
blood to the face and the "shortness
of breath" which you experience in
front of an audience is due to self
consciousness. This has nothing to
do with fear. The most courageous
person can have stage-fright when he
appears before an audience or he can
blush and stammer the most idiotic
phrases to slip of girl with whom
he is in love. Don't pay any atten-
ton TO the temperature of your body
or the occasional pain at the back
Of your head. Forget yourself and in
time the sensations will disappear.
Sexual Frigidity?
JIM: You forgot to enclose post
age; but even if you did, I could not
write you about subject which car
only be discussed in personal inter-
view. You may or may not be frigid
or you may be cold with one person
and the opposite with another. Your
fears are probably exaggerated. Next
time you are in New York, try to ar
range for friendly chat; bringing
your comrade along, if possible.
Dandruff
Vernice S.: You forgot To tell us
the age and whether the scalp is dry
or oily. An oily skin requires an
entirely different treatment from a
dry scalp. Don't use vaseline in any
case.

hoodlums with a complete set of new
uniforms and are Dragging about the
neatness and efficiency of the new
police gang.
Nothing has been done to- prevent
cutting down on the R.F.C. relief
or to improve the appearance of the
unemployed workers, some of whom
have been out of work for two or
three years. The workers are without
employment and the so-called Relief
Agency furnished a few seeds and
sent bunch of railroaders and min
ers out to raise gardens. The gardens
were a failure.

more cheerfully. Its mighty nice Of you Miss

We could paddle around by Dorothy's and

said Mother, Ronnie Roberts is taking me on
the lake; if Charles comes tell him Ill be back
by g." and Mrs Barton said from her ham
mock, Take wrap, Belle; it may be cool
coming home" and Belle found a wrap and
her mandolin.
Ronnie padded until they were near Doro-
thys and there they floated, Ronnie and Belle
singing while Belle twanged her mandolin.
There was doubt that Dorothy saw and
heard them; she may not have recognized
Belle but she surely did know Ronne's voice.
WELL" she exclaimed to herself! II like
that" which meant that she did not like it at
all, for she considered Ronnie her own private
property What right had he to be singing in
q canoe with some other girl?
Before the dew was heavy and the air
chilly and Ronnie landed Belle at the Barton
dock Ronnie shook Bellies hand warmly.
Thanks just terribly" he said 1T won't

and take notice. guess. I'll bet she's worried
already, Miss Barton hearing me sing on the
lake with you"
IA /HEN Belle went into the cottage she
w found Charles Denton there, waiting for
her and talking to Mrs. Barton. She had
known Charles for so many years that he was
almost like a brother-a slightly older brother
or like a quite young bachelor uncle.
He was not actually old, only 60 and not
too bald for an assistant professor Of English:
He was writing a novel and living alone in
his own cabin. and he had found Belle to be
exactly the CHEEKY and sensible companion he
desired for the hours of relaxation from his
writing.
WELL" Belle said when Mrs. Barton had
pleaded Neariness and retired to her own little
room. YOU'D never guess who was with.

you tomorrow night; I've promised Ronnie to
go with him" ..-. ........

never guess why he's asking me. Swear never
to breathe a word Of it, Charles, and III tell
you"
Quite an idea" Charles admitted when
Belle had explained, "but not new. 1t has been
done before. at least in fiction and dare say
in real life. So, I'm turned adrift for awhile,
am I? For how long, BELIEF"
"Oh not long, surely! It is to be rapid
fire affair; one Of these impetuous cases of in
fatuation. I had to tell you, Charles, you
would understand"
"Absolutely-yes!" Charles agreed, laughing
again. "Ill try not to chuck a wrench in your
young Ronnie's machinery But don't string
it out too long, Belle. I'll miss our get
togethers."
Dorothy the next evening, went gooseberry
with couple of her friends to the dance at
the casino and the first dance had ended when
Ronnie and Belle arrived. As they reached the
casino float Dorothy was having a cool drink
all by her lonesome at one of the tables just
inside the casino door, and Ronnie made a
grand play Of helping Belle out of the canoe
holding her hand and taking her arm. and
Dorothy's eyes snapped fire.
The little orchestra plunged into two-step
and Dorothy pushed aside her glass She saw
no one free at the moment but Charles Den
ton and she hurried to him and offered her
self for the dance
Dance with mel" she commanded. Quick!
I'll tell you why" and Charles could not well
push her away rudely His arm encircled her
"It's Ronnie." she said Il suppose you think
I'm awful, asking you to dance, but won't
have him think he's the only boy could get.
I could get dozen boys, and you know it, Mr..
Denton, but Ronne has always brought me
here, only tonight he didn't"
There was touch Of resentfulness in her
voice.
She was. Charles thought, the best partner
with whom he had ever danced, and Dorothy
must have had the same thought Of him for
she said, "You can dance can't you?" and
they had six more dances together before they
realized they had been together so long.
