dictate that the Cleveland Conference
is likely to be one of the most rep
resentative and broadeSt of its kind
held in this country.
Fully 300 delegates will attend the
Conference from the state of Ohio
alone, according to very reliable re-
ports. These delegates will repre-
sent the rubber workers from Akron
as we'll as steel workers from Youngs-
town. Delegates will also come from
Canton, Toledo, Cincinnati and
Cleveland.
In Sandusnsky, Ohio, where a
vigorous fight is being waged to have
the Central Labor Union, represent
ing the citys labor bodies, endorse
the Conference, Painters Local
Union 1888, A. F. of L., has announced
the election of delegates to the
Cleveland gathering.
The call for the election of dele
gates to the Cleveland Conference is
also being received with greater
sympathy than any similar call here
tofore by textile and shoe workers
Of New England, whose dissatisfac-
ton with the NRA slave code is
growing, and whose distrust of
Roosevelt's new DEAF was definitely
established during their recent
struggles for better working condi-
tions.
New York City will send approx
nately so delegates to the Confer
ence, the local Arrangement Com
mittee announced today. The dele
gates will leave in two chartered
buses, reducing the transportation
cost of each delegate to $500. The
organizations sending the delegates
are to raise this transportation fee
as well as the $500 for their ex-
penses for the two days of the Con-
ference.
The Provisional Committee for the
Conference calls upon all Industrial
areas to set up local Arrangement
Committees which are to carry on
the work of getting delegates elected
from various labor bodies to the

, to reopen with Scabs.
Another move to lay the basis for
breaking the strike was made yes
terday by William Smith, national
secretary of the American Federation
of Full Fashioned Hosiery Workers,
who declared that he would declare
a moratorium" on strikes. He
promised the hosiery bosses that
even though they shave time and
again kicked the Federation officials
out of their Office, he would see to
it that the hosiery strike would not
spread to any more mills.
He promised further that he would
try to call off the present strike if
only the hosiery manufacturers
would allow him and the other
A.FFHW. officials the authority to
collect union dues.
All disputes in the future, Smith
stated, will be placed before the
same Roosevelt peace" board that
is now trying to break the miners

Monday
Thomas said he thought enforced
arbitration was "a dangerous thing.
While Roosevelt puts over his
slave codes, the socialist leader

in order to disassociate himself from
John L Lewis and William Green,
he says he does not favor federal
enforced arbitration.
Thomas sang high praises of

why he urged the workers not to
strike.
"Unquestionably America h "a S

NEW YORK-Two shoe shops in
Guiding IT'S workers signed agree
ments with the Shoe and Leather

The bosses granted demands of a
40 hour week, about twenty-five per

The first plant to sign was the
Artistic Shoe Co., 305 Seventh Ave.
where 100 workers had been on
strike for one and half weeks. The
other shop, the Pape Shoe Co., 70

fuelling the entire steel industry.
If the striking miners hold out
it is acknowledged that there will
be a serious shortage Of coal within
10 days. Not only steel but all the
industries dependent upon steel will
feel the effects. That IS why j. P
Morgan. Andrew Mellon, President
Roosevelt, Governor Pinchot, Cen
eral johnson and all the rest-in-
Guiding their labor advisors - who
sack profits for capitalism out OF
the recovery program, have been so
anxious to settle the strike immedi-
ataly.
The Wall Street Journals dispatch
from Pittsburgh is so important that
we quote it at length:
THE rapid spread of the coal strike
from Fayette County fields to the
Pittsburgh and other districts
threatens the entire industrial re-
covery program, in the opinion Of
many industrial leaders here.
''The strike has been directed at
mines owned by steel companies. 1t
has extended to commercial mines
which ordinarily might be depended
upon to supply the needs of steel
producers. Steel companies still can
reach into fields farther south and
to other districts not yet affected by
the strike. This, however, would
increase their costs and, If the strike
should continue to spread, even
these sources might be shut off, is
the fear of the capitalists. They
recognize the mood of the miners to
defeat their slave program.
"Some of the steel companies have
accumulated stocks of coal. but in
no case are they great enough to
carry operations for any protracted
period" the Wall Street Journal con-
tinues.
"a careful canvass of the situation
reveals that the steel mills have
about ten days to two weeks supply
of coal before their operations will
be seriously hanpered One con-
Germ in the youngstown district has
only six days supply. Two blast
furnaces that were to go on in the
Youngstown district this week were
held up because of the fuel Situa-
ton. The entire steel industry de-
ponds mostly upon the Pittsburgh
district for fuel, even the Chicago
area, the Steel Corp. getting its coal
from the Prick mines here; Inland
Steel Co. has it's own mines in the
Pittsburgh area, but all are closed
Our emphasis-GH0.
Some steel companies, in antici-
patton of a shortage are beginning
to search far afield for supplies OF
suitable coal. The fact that a par
ticular type of fuel is needed for
coking tends to complicate the
problem
"All Pittsburgh Coal Co. and Jones
and Laughlin mines are closed Half
of the Hillman Coal g. Coke mines
are closed and all the Frick com
pany pits are shut down.
THAT coal shortage at the steel
mills is imminent is not denied. One
big steel company purchased some
coal in Philadelphia for use at its
plants here" says the dispatch.
1t is the fear of spreading the
strike to other regions and drawing
in the steel workers that the Wall
Street organ recognizes. The min
ers hold a key position in the pre-
sent situation and by united strug-
gle can defeat the slavery program
of the coal operators.

Should she rise when introduced to an

to man? Should the girl rise when
the house mother enters the room?
When q guest has met q number Of

Answer: A girl never rises when .

to her. A girl is never introduced to
man. He is introduced to her. She
would stand If another girl introduced
to her offers to shake hands. A house

both proper as well as natural to say,

Looking pleased. because feeling pleased,
is very friend-making. On the other

lips are merely drawn back over the

you have not said more than . few
words, and about whom you know moth
ing whatsoever, and who knows moth
