Half Hours Pay
Stolen Daily From
LongshOremen
tBy Marine Worker Correspondent)


NEW YORK.-On Pier SO (White
Star Line) the longshoremen are
treated worse than slaves. The
bosses work us like mules, then they
gyp us out of IS to 80 minutes wages
for every day we put in. Most Of
the men make only about $40 a
month. The hatch bosses make most
of the time.
Sometimes the men are forced to
hang around all day long waiting
for a shape because the bosses won't
let us know when the ship docks.
Many of us hang around all day
and then we don't make the shape.
We work two men to the side Of
the ship, four men in the hold to a
double lift. Two or three bosses
Swearing and curs.ng all the day
long, telling you if you can't meet
the hook then get out" This is all
the work six men used to do about
a year ago. Now four men have to
do it all, the bosses cursing and
swearing from the time we start until
we knock off (25 minutes to six
sonetimes).
Here is how they rob us of our
hard earned wages. They shape us
about five to 10 minutes ahead of
time in the morning and in the
afternoon. We knock off about 20
to % minutes past five o'clock. Ac-
cording to the union rules we are
supposed to quit work at five min
uteS to five Give minutes to cover
the hatch). We get paid only till
five o'clock. So they gyp us out Of
to 10 minutes in the morning
to 10 minutes in the afternoon
20 to Is minutes in the evening
80 to IS minutes every day we work.
We can't kick to the union dele
gate about these things because he
comes around only to collect dues
(once every three months. And he
spends most of his time in the office
with the bosses.

who all along knew that nothing

uted paralysis to the Chicago activ-

It was routed. The results were, $50
new members for the Jewish branches
of Chicago, some so new members for

Sir Walter Hotel
RALEIGH, May At had been
expected that the senate would be
able to get to work on the school
machinery bill early this week,
but it now appears that it will be
Thursday or Friday before the bill
is introduced in either house OF
the general assembly. The joint
senate and house education COM
mittees have been meeting two
and three times daily every day
this week. but yesterday it APP
pcared that they had made rcla-
lively little progress toward a
general agreement.
Not only are the two commit
tees widely separated in their
views, but the members Of neither
committee have been able to get
together on the various issues in
volvcd in the school machinery
bill-if and how much local sup
plementS are to be permitted. the
question of Il new teachers, sal
airy schedule, whether additional
supplements will be permitted for
plant maintenance, and various
other matters. The house COM
mittee is understood TO favor
some kind of limited supplements,
and leaving the salary schedule as
it Is, but there are still many dif-
ferenceS among members Of the
house committee.
The senate committee is under
stood 20 favor permitting local
supplements by vote of the people
when special school districts are
adjudged finally able to levy adj
ditional tax; there is also strong
sentiment i'm the senate commit
tee for reducing the present
teachers salary schedule, and for
preventing the larger cities to
supplement- teachers salaries. al
though none Of these matters have
the unanimous support OF the
whole senate committee. 1t is the
belief here that many compromises
will have TO be made by both com
mittres before a bill can be re-
ported out with the whole COM
mittee'S approval.

JESUS AND THE
AMBITIOUS TWO
Revealing the Cross Jesus taughN
that suffering is the test Of
greatness. The request Of James
and John. intimate associates Of
Jesus, was courteously presented
by their mother, Salome, who was
probably a sister of Mary, the
mother Of Jesus. They still held
material view of the kingdom
and perhaps misinterpreted what
Jesus had just said about the
twelve on the throne of the
tribes. Hence their desire to sit
next to him, right and left, in his
coming glory. They sympathized
with his mission and were willing
TO endure privation, but their
ambition was unworthy.
The response of Jesus was
neither an express denial nor Il
stern rebuke. To show them they
did not know what they were ask
ing he inquired if they were able
to drink with him his cup of sor-
row and undergo his baptism of
suffering. Was there tinge of
presumption in their affirmative
answer? At any rate. looking on
ward to the death of James, first
Of the apostolic martyrs, and Of
John. after surviving fiery perse-
cutions, he told them that in the
fulness Of time they would drink
of the same cup as their Lord.

Party Convention
Funding Plans
May Be Changed
Two Cost Chicago $780,
600 But Gate Receipts
Show a Profit
By SAM KNOTT
United Press Staff Correspondent

CHICAGO, May 4.-(UP).-
The two national political conven-
tons held last summer earned q
profit. yet they cost Chicago cltl-
zens more than 100000, Edward
n. Hurley has revealed in the
final report Of the citizens COM
mittec which brought the conVen-
tions to this city.
In making his final report to
the Chicago Association of Com
merce, Hurley recommended that
the financing Of national political
conventions be carried out by dlt-
ferent methods in the future.
Hurley suggested that contracts
should be made with the national
political parties covering financial
guarantees desired and specifying
that when conventions are held
here The citizens committee
should receive a liberal number OF
daily admission reserved seat tick
cts to be sold for the convention.
He recommended also that
whenever city is fortunate
enough to secure both conventions
of the major national parties the
same schedule of prices should be
established for tickets to both,
Hurley's report revealed that
after all expenses were paid,
there was a surplus from the con-
ventions of SIP, 497.74. This was
refunded to the original contrlbu-
tors on a A per cent basis.
The conventions earned $83,-
072.08 from sales Of tickets, adj
and concessions.
Hurley pointed out that despite
this apparent success the real bu"-
den of financing the conventions
was carried by Chicago citizens
who contributed $281,889.44 OF
the total of $364,9Gl.52 raised
for the conventions.
The major point which Hurley
and other civic leaders used III
bringing both conventions here
was the guarantee Of large eX-
pense funds, in advance.

With crucifiXiOn week but a

were awed by the majestic hero
