is coming on-use Vicks Nose and
Throat Drops, the new aid in pre-
venting colds Vicks Drops aid Ma
ture in throwing off the infection
that threatens. They prevent devel-
opment of many colds.
To End Cold Sooner
If cold has developed, or strikes
without warning, vigorous measures
are necessary. At bedtime, massage
throat and chest we'll with Vicks
VapoRub. 1t acts two ways at once
to bring relief: By Stimulation
through the skin, like pOultice or
plaster, and by Inhalation Of its
medicated vapors direct to irritated
air-pasasges. During the day-for
added comfort and re.ief-use the
convenient Vicks Nose Drops every
few hours as needed.
Plan Tested and Proved

RAILROADS COME OUT
OF LONG SLEEP

At last the railroads have agreed
to lower passenger fares throughout
the nation. If they had reduced fares
years ago even during the period of
so-called prosperity, they would have
made friends and might have contin-
ued to hold many who have turned to
other means of transportation. Lower
fares now will very likely help rail
road traffic, but they will not undo
all the harm wrought to rail transpor-
tation by years of unduly high rates.
Some railroads have done admirable
things in recent years in the way of
improving equipment and are making
a strong bid for increased passenger
travel. Modern, comfortable anC
speedy trains, with lower fares, should
help the rail carriers to meet the
competition of the bus, airplane anc
private automobile.

BELGIUM GETTING READY?

Tragic and saddening news comes
in reports that Belgium is floating
among her people loan of 1,500, 900,
900 francs to pay for strengthening
her Notifications on her German from
tier But there is sublimity in it, too.
Belgium, whose spirit stood erect and
defiant long after her towers were
laid low and her forts were battered
down, holds still the will to live, the
fortitude to fight and the courage to
die for native land. But it seems a
terrible thing that the world should
learn so little at so large price
Must this generation, before it's day
is run, witness for second time all
the rapine and savagery that laid
waste forest and field and cottager's s
garden?
1t may be that these and like ques-
tions comes to Belgium now as she
makes ready against the evil reckon
ing. But, be the future what it may,
Belgium has but one answer to threat
or blow. Belgium can perish, but she
will not yield.

RIGHT TO STRIKE FUNDA-
MENTAL

Labor cannot give up its right to
strike as a last resort in the fight
against wrong. 1t is true that all
other means to secure adjustment of
grievances should be tried before a
strike is called. Agencies are now
provided under the recovery act to
settle disputes with justice to the
workers. Full use should be made of
them, but it is nonsense to say that
labor must give up its strike weapon.
AS President Green, of the A. F. of
L., said: "The right to strike is fun
damental. The workers cannot and
must not be called upon to surrender
the right to strike"

it's spread in Great Britain. Ben Till
ett, veteran labor and strike leader,
told the conference Fascism was
greater danger in this country than
many believed, and said that British
workers may have to face later on
what their comrades in Germany are
suffering.
"There is" he said, IAN influential
section of our own financial political

BUYING POWER MUST RISE
FASTER

Complaint is general that prices
are running too far ahead of buying
power. The purchasing power of the
masses is not keeping pace with the
steadily rising cost of commodities.
Despite gain in employment and
wages under the NRA, incomes are
still generally low and wage and
salaried workers are finding it diff
cult to make both ends meet. They
are exhorted from all sides to buy
to the limit of their capacity, and
they are willing to do so. But their
capacity is very limited.
There is general suspicion that
many prices are higher than increas-
ed costs under the codes warrant This
suspicion has been voiced not alone
by the man in the street but by
high recovery administration author
tiles.
Though desirable, it is doubtful if
prices can be kept down to enable
purchasing power to catch up with
them. In the emergency, the only
quick and sure remedy is shorter
hours and higher wages than have
been set in the codes. This is organ
lied labor's program for coping with
the situation. The sooner it is adopt
ed, the quicker will the recovery be.
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1933-10-20

Senator Robert F. Wagner, of New
York, chairman of the National La
Dor Board, is often spoken of as the
father of the national industrial re-
covery act. If not the father, he un
doubtedly took leading part in
drafting it. Therefore what he says
in connection with the act is singnif
cant.
In fine address before the Amer
lean Federation of Labor convention
in Washington, Senator Wagner said
that wages under the NRA codes
must go higher and hours of work
be further reduced to assure the sue
cess of the recovery program. This
is what organized labor is contend
ing. He went on to say:
Wage improvements under the
New Deal should not be simply
enough to keep factories going.
Wages must be fixed with refer
ence to a social program which
intends to insure everyone
comfortable living and to give
labor its just share of the ma
tional wealth"
Senator Wagner, in the foregoing
looked toward new age, an age of
plenty for all, in which the common
good shall be paramount. He fore
sees not only recovery from the pres
ent depression but the coming Of a
new day in which there shall be no
poverty and hunger in the midst of
plenty.

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1888
GOVERNMENT FINDS A WAY

There used to be little boy who
could not go to sleep until he had a
certain corner of certain little baby
blanket tucked under his chin One
evening the little blanket was not to
be found; and it was not until after
a tropical storm of childish tears and
nerves that disillusioned boy found
that he could go to sleep anyway.
Some of the big financial minds
have been so used to having their own
little blanket-or form of notes, or
choice of industries, or say-so as to
wages-before they could ''fnd a
way" to accept deposit of a new
credit account, that they have been
blocking the traffic at the main cross
roads.
But some of them have been in
dulging in their childish spasms just
little too long, and now they are
having the fun of seeing the business
go right past their doors, down street,
to the new concerns which Uncle Sam
is setting up to take care of the
credit demands of Legitimate" busi-
ness.
Of course, it is incredible Such a
thing never happened before And
so, with the limited imaginations that
travel along with fixed ideas, these
gentlemen never conceived that il
could happen.
Keep government out of business, y
forsooth! There'd be a much smaller
quantum of business moving right
now, if government had not gotten
into business-with a sharp stick.

The boycott resolution pledges Brit
