3O-HOUR WEEK
IS ALL. GOAL
Convention Opening Today
Will Be Largest in
Movements History

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2. (UP).
Complete unionization of Amer
ica's workers and active opposi-
ton to monetary initiation were
demanded by President William
Green of the American Fedora
ton of Labor in a vigorous speech
marking the opening session OF
the 53rd annual convention Of
the organization.
Green pleaded for a militant
labor outlook and declared the
succeed of the NRA depended
upon adoption of the uniform 30
hour week and higher wages
throughout industry.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 2. (UP).
A 3O-hour week, higher minimum

tant in the history of trade union"
ism in America. =,

THREE-P0INT
PROGRAM Laid
BEFORE Vets
Would Provide Aid Only
as Other Agencies Fail
to Meet Needs
SECTIONAL, CLASS
LINES OPPOSED

CHICAGO STADIUM. Oct. 2.
(UP).-The non-combatant war
veteran must take his chances
with other citizens in earning a
living. President Roosevelt de-
clared today in a straight-from-
speech. in which he
carried his economy fight before
10000 members of the American
Legion.
Roosevelt spoke boldly in a cru
cial address before the Legion
convention which had potential
ties of winning the veterans over
intellectually to his cause of
economy or of arousing a revolt
against the presidents drastic
compensation cuts.
The president laid down three
principles in dealing with the vet
erans' finance problems. He de-
clared his policy of financial en-
trenchment is imperative if the
country is 10 Thrive.
His fundamental propositions
were:
1.-Government responsibility
for those who suffered injury or
disease during the war;
2.-That there should be no
special class of beneficiaries over
and above all other citizens;
3.-Federal aid for non-con-
nected service disability cases, but
only in the event that aid from
all other agencies has failed.
The President thanked the Le-
gion for its loyalty and service
and appealed for unity in the
elimination of sectionalism aud
class alignment.
The Legion army moved into
Chicago yesterday for it's 18th an
nual convention.
Accompanied by the best semi
military bands and drum corps in
the country. the "boys' of 1913
came by train, automobile and
airplane; some even came as
hitch-hikers.
1t was estimated that upwards
of $4,000 visiting Legion men,
bers were in the city last night,
awaiting the official opening to-
day of the convention, the parade
on Tuesday. and the arrival of
President Roosevelt.
The largest previous Legion
convention was held in Detroit in
1881. 1t was attended by 1876, 900
veterans. Officials who have at
tended all preceding meetings es-
timated that at least 100000 men
will attend this weeks session.

ed a comeback attempt.
The Georgia boxers left foot

Riding a motorcycle, along with
flying his own airplane, had long
been a hobby of the 29-year-old
athlete who as a 16-year-old Geor-
gia schoolboy started a fistic ca
reer that was climaxed by his loss
to Max Schmeling, then heavy
weight champion, two years ago.
Yesterday, Stribling rode his
motorcycle out to the Idle Hour
Golf club for practice in prepare
ton for a golf tournament IN
which he was to compete yester-
day afternoon.
He started back to town shortly
after noon. Near the Macon city
limits, he saw an automobile driv-

swerve to the left to avoid hitting
another car. He lodged off the
pavement, but the front wheel OF
Johnson's machine struck his leg,
crushing it against the cycle mo-
tor.
Stribling was taken to a hos
pital still conscious and treated in
a room Just a floor above where
his wife, Clara, is confined. She

BEAUTY HINTS
(By Nine. Velrna E. Young
THE ART OF MAKE UP

Make up is probably the most impor-
tant branch of beauty. The shade of
rouge and powder and the manner OF
putting it on, is the most important
factor The wrong shade Of rouge and
powder will detract from the beauty
of the skin, hair and eyes. The proper
shades will accentuate these features
and bring cut their beauty; which is
the secret of make up.
The white and flesh tints of powder
are those most used to-day. People
with black hair and Give complexion
should make up with rachel, suntani
orce or brownish powder and poppy
or rashberry rouge, with lip stick to
match. Auburn haired people-straw-
berry rouge, flesh or rachel powder
should be used.
The golden haired woman should
have white powder, peach rouge and
lip stick. The white or grey haired
persons. If the skin is dark use rachel
powder and medium rouge If the skin
is fair use white powder and medium
rouge and Iipstick Facial make up
must avoid the look Of artifcially. That
is why it is important to carefully
watch the choice of color and use OF
rouge. How shall bring out my hid
den Beauty. Ask us. Our operators
will gladly study your individual case

MIRA OFFICIALS CONSIDER
NAMING NEGRO ADVISER

New York, Aug. 4 The naming Of a
Negro adviser and deputy administra-
ter under the National Recovery Act
is being considered by number Of
MIRA officials, according to confident
ial advices received here this week by
the National Association for the Ad-
vancement of Colored People.
The N. A, A. c. P, again urged the
appointment of colored man to the
labor advisory boar in letters addessed
to Secretary Frances Perkins an to each
member of the labor advisory board.
The fact that the steel code, sub
mitted last week, contained a lower
wage scale hr Negro workers was
cited by the N. A. A. c. P. as reason
for the naming Of a colored man to lcok
after the interests of the Negro worker.
Miss Perkins made vigorous objection
to the Negro wage scale, but the N. A.
A. c. P. points out that in the hurry
and hustle to get industry back on its
feet the Negro worker may not always
have Miss Perkins handy to plead his
cause, and many wage scales based on
color will be slipped by.
It is understood that only very Sc
lected list of less than ten men is being
tentatively considered for the appoint
ment. If the officials select a man it
is regarded as certain that the appoint
ment will not be political but will
name a man recognized as an expert
in economic and Nero labor problems
Less than a half dozen Negroes fall in
to this category, Washington observers
point out.

HEALTH TOPICS
(By DR.. William Z. Miller

FOREWORD. Eeach week a selected
health topic will be presented to the
readers of the ECHO. These topics will
he original and in harmony with the
present day medical knowledge. The
writer welcomes all questions and any
question pertaining to health. However
he does not propose to give medical
treatments through this column The
purpose Of this column is to create and
stimulate increased interest in health
matters. Again the writer wants to
make plain that no cases will be diagn-
nosed or treated through these topics.
All questions submitted will be an
swered as soon as possible.
HEALTH APPRAISALS. The topic
for today will be Health Appraisals.
BY this term we mean a periodic hea-
It'll evaluaticn or a check-up to deter
mine the true status of ones health.
The trend of the American public IS
to have thorough health check-up at
regular periods. Every adult should
have a physical examination and con-
suit his or her family doctor at least
..e a year. Every child should
have a thorough physical examination
and consult its family doctor two times
a wear. All of us know that children
require more medical attention than
adults because their bodies are not
fully developed, they are exposed to
more diseases and their systems are
not as strong as the systems Of adults.
The value Of a physical examination
has been demonstrated to even the
most skeptical. It will detect disease
in its early stage, it will show-up body
abnormalities not noticed by the pa
tent it will enable the person to pro
long his life by correcting the defects
found.
The physical examination includes a
thorough examination of the head, neck
chest including the heart and lungs,
abdomen and arms and legs. It also in
cludes careful determination Of the
blood pressure.
Your family doctor will be glad to
rive you thorough physical examina-
ton and adrise you how to correct any
defects that may be found.
