Mr.. Farley's report to the
Senate related in detail a series
of meetings held here at which
he claimed air mail contracts
were distributed by agreement.

Some of these sessions were
held at the Post Office Depart
ment and were attended by the
then Postmaster General Walter

Postmaster General w, Irving
Glover. Mr.. Farley said Mr..
MacCracken, then Assistant Sec
retary of Commerce in Charge
of Aeronautics, sometimes served
as chairman of these meetings.
He said that on November 6,
1929. Mr.. Glover extended for six
months contracts awarded q
number of short lines and
asserted he was satisfied that
the extension of these contracts
for said period of six months
was illegal"
He said his information showed
that every corporation whose con-

He said he got his information

He listed the following COM

MERGERS
DRAW NEAR

Officials of the washington Me-
chanics Savings Bank expressed
confidence today that details
necessary to the absorption of the
closed Mt. Vernon Savings Bank
would be completed by March 5.
If so, the merger will become
operative on that date. If not, it
will take effect March IL, since it
is necessary that the merger begin
on a Monday.
Employees of the Mt. Vernon
establishment have been working
night and day since the House
passed the King bill exempting
stockholders from double liability,
completing necessary book work.
That, according to c. F. Burton,
executive vice president Of the
Washington Mechanics, should be
completed by March S, unless the
unforeseen occurs.
When. the Mt. Vernon is alb
sorbed the combined banks will be
known as the Mechanics Franklin
Savings Bank.
The new name will be taken on
despite the fact that it will be 80
days before the closed Franklin
National Bank will join the
merger. Delay in taking over the
Franklin is due to the fact that
necessary waivers have not been
received. The Franklin has frozen
deposits of $2,080,000, approx.
mately, and only depoSitors repre-
senting $1,650,000 have consented
to the merger.

Branch replied:

General Is concerned, he an

He declared that the PoStoffice

The committee voted to con-
slider the emergency bill first and
then take up permanent air mail
legislation.

the Governments air mail con-
tracts, with one possible excep-
ton, were based on conspiracy or

today by Postmaster General Far
ley as his reason for cancelling all
domestic air mail contracts, effec-
tive Monday.
Mr.. Farley claimed the avia-
tion companies had been over
paid SAG, 800, 900 during the period
from July !, 1880, to December
81, 1888. He identified the
National Parks Airways as -"the

all the other contracts were
awarded "on agreement and not
on competitive bidding" as the
law prescribes.
The Army Air Corps pushed
its plans to have it's pilots and
equipment ready to fly the air
mail by Sunday midnight, while
the White House and Mr.. Farley

YUKON, Pa. - The miners of
Westmoreland County have now
learned that mass pressure will
bring them results.
The Westmorcland Coal Co., to-
gether with the District 3 officials
Of the United Mine Workers tried to
fine the miners of the Export mine
because they were loading one car
PEI day to force the company to
rehire discharged motorman. The
pit committee of the seven West
moreland Coal mines told the dis
trict officials that all seven mines
would be loading one car per day if
the fine was put into effect. This
mass move forced both the operators
and district officials to change their
minds.
Two federal conciliators from
Washington D. c. came to West
moreland County to settle up the
dispute of the discharged motorman.
These two went to the Export meet
ing, read off their proposal, and had
it passed while most of the men
didn't know what it was all about.
1t stated in fancy lawyers language
that the men had agreed to return
to normal work, and to quit loading
one car per day in the future. The
miners now realize their mistake.

paid high prices for food, rent and
clothes. But the big guys got richer
and richer. Now it looks as if they're
getting ready again to send young
men to war, so the rich guys can
keep their sinking profits. Then
the bands will play again, there will
be parades and flags, and patriotic
speeches. Everyone will think it's

and overheard the last words. They
won't find it so easy to send us off
to war this time. We're wise to the
bosses tricks. We know that the
bosses are plotting war. When
they spend two billion dollars for
war supplies they mean business.
We know that the bosses of all coun-
tries must have war. That's the only
way they know to get out of their
business troubles. They're going to
divide up the world again for them
selves. But there's not enough for
all OF them and so they've got to
fight for it. And they expect us to
do the fighting for them. But when
they put guns in our hands we will
use them against the bosses that
make war. Then we will fight the
real last war; a war against the
bosses for workers government. A
workers government doesn't need
war to pile up profits.
I'm 1917 when the Russian work
ers and farmers grew tired of war
they threw out their car and the
bunch who made money out of war.
They made the Soviet Union, where
workers rule and there is no I'M
employment. Everything they make
is for themselves. Now in every
country the workers look with hope
to the Soviet Union.

the docks in the schools and on the
farms, the truth about war. Then

the blood. 1t occurs more often
during cold weather. The actual
causes are too numerous to be men
toned. Anything from a weak
heart to hereditary inclination is
liable to be the underlying factor.
Have yourself examined thoroughly
by q reliable physician.
Heart" burn and sour stomach
are due to hyperacidity too much
acid in the stomach. Normally, a
certain amount of hydrochoric
acid is secreted by the cells in the
inner lining of the stomach for the
purpose of digesting the food. When
the stomach is irritated by spicy
food or any other agent, even by
nervousness, more acid is secreted
than necessary to combine with
the food. The free acid then
causes burning which is referred
to as heart" burn because it is
felt in the region of the heart; but
it has nothing to do with the heart.
The taste of vinegar is also due to
this excess acid.
AS to the cure, you must first
find out what the cause of your
gastric hyperacidity is. The taking
of bicarbonate is only a temporary
relief and does more harm than
good, in the log run.

Copper Miners Vote for
Union Despite Threats
By Mine Worker Correspondent

BY Mine Worker Correspondent
BISBEE, Ariz.-Just a few words
in regard to the election in the
Copper Queen Mines at Bisbee on
July IS, under supervision of the
Regional Labor Board.
The miners union. the Interna-
tional Union of Mine, Mill and
Smelter Workers Local No. 30, hav-
ing about 80 per cent of the min
ers signed up and in good stand
ing, won the right of representa-
ton by a scant "a votes. which
shows that at least $50 union men
were put down as in favor of the
company union. OF course. the old
gag was used to intimidate the
men, such as closing down the
mines, etc.
Captain Hodgson, Car of Bisbee,
and general manager of the mines
division, was very scarce article
for several days before and after
the election. The whole affair
proves the fact that only militant
unionism educates the membership
to the true fact confronting them
in their daily struggles.

Philips next door neighbor was
sitting out on the porch. 1t was
still half and hour before supper.
Philip had Just come back from an
Grand to the store. He sat down
to wait for his father to come home.
Whenever the weather was nice,
the new neighbor sat on the porch.
He had moved in few months ago.
He lived with his brother who had
wife and two grown up girls.
Philip liked his neighbor. He could
tell such interesting stories about
the war. He had been through the
heaviest fighting. At the end of the
war he had come home with Q.

lost.

Adams, but I see by the papers
that Europe's about ready to ex-

United States wants war too, said
Philip.

if war broke loose again over there,
if the United States would stay out
of it. Like they did last time

What happened then, what did
people say?" asked Philip.
Well, in those days, the papers
shouted that we'd stay out of it.
President Wilson was elected again
because he piped about peace just
the way Roosevelt does. But the
government changed its mind when
the war was three years old. Then

And many days the miners go into
the mines and make not a cent.
Also the machine cutters are work
ing day work and many places are
not cut. and in case the company
wants to keep the machine men on
day work, they will put on more
machine men. so the miners could
have the places cut when the place
is cleaned up, and to have coal that
the miners could load when the
mine is working, and not have the
miner go and stay the whole day,
and make nothing.
Everybody knows what this N. R.
A. is. If miners strike they are
forced to pay 81 fine each day they
are on strike. But for the company
there is no cut. They can get the
miners to go into the mine, to stay
for nothing, and there's no penalty
for them. This is what the miners
can expect from Lewis and his
henchmen.
Mines only work at most four days
in every two weeks. The company
puts all the pussyfoots on as coal
inspectors. SO in this way many
miners are laid off for dirty coal"
etc. The boss's sons have whole
hours of work.
This is the condition of the miners
here. The local union took up this
question and a mine committees was
sent to demand that this be
changed. Superintendent Charles
Eastep refused this week to see the
committee and discuss the griev-
ances. Miners are taking steps to
see that their grievances be taken
up and corrected. They elected del
egates for the conference on July 20,
which was held in Barnesboro, Pa,
to fight for restoration of the auton-
ony and charter of District No. 2,
