TULSA, Okla. - Organized
| labor in this city was fairly
well entrenched but union
men when they cannot get
work are demoralized and the
wage scale is destroyed. For three
years there was scarcely any &C
tivity in the building trades here,
as an instance. The union men
were hence thrown upon the char
ity rolls here as in other areas;
wage scales were reduced and I'M
der the leadership Of the American
Federation Of Labor, scarcely any
objections we're raised as this dis
Indignation of organized labor pro-
crossed. In fact, here in Tulsa, the
International representative Of the
oil field workers union, was used
by the leading citizens" Of the
town TO keep the unemployed
down, when they got hot and
bothered" as the representative,
Wildcat Williams told me frankly
White collar workers felt the eff
fects Of the depression as keenly
as the unskilled worker, for with
oil production dormant they were
discharged wholesale-clerks, stem
ographers, "inteuectuals" like uni
versity trained men: biologists, civil
engineers-all these we're thrown
into the class begging 4 cents a day
for foodl As the Secretary of the
Chamber OF. Commerce told me.
you could buy geologist cheaper
than a stenographer, and you can
get those for So week"
Government relief projects eased
the tension that was rising among
the unemployed, Last year some
10000 families, virtually all the
charity cases, were transferred to
the CWA; those who could be put
to work were supposed to get Jobs,
the rest were supposed to get gov
eminent relief otherwise. Usually
the number Of those given jobs were
about half the number registered
for them On these CWA projects
they averaged $3.50 q week, but now
that this is being liquidated the
unemployed are again turning to
charity, and Family Service is not
equipped or prepared to handle
them The city charity orgsnizs-
ton was caught unprepared; their
budget had not dreamed Of this
eventuality.
In this city and state the CWA
has collapsed entirely All relief
agencies, including the federal ones,
are in a demoralized state-and in
the meantime the hungry are cry
ing for bread and the blind re-
bellion Of the unemployed, which
had been controlled by Wildcat
Williams threat of force, is again
showing itself
But despite government work
relief suffering and privation is
greater this year than last, accord
ing to Mrs, Solomon. The city it.

thing and the state has not even
contributed materials for CWA and
PWA work. So busy is everyone
playing politics with the Jobs sup
posed to feed the hungry that the
whole scene is marked by caLous
indifference to the actual needs Of
some of the most destitute families.
Here, as in every area I've visited
government work relief projects,
especially the eve, have been the
plaything for local politicians. They
simply used the money and the por-
tioning of Jobs to strengthen their
local political power. In this area,
however, this served benefcially for
the Negro.
The black man is not permitted
to work in the oil fields. There is
tacit exclusion here which,
though not in any open rules, is

VIRGINIA SEES
HOPE AGAINST
TAR HEELS

UNIVERSITY, Va, Nov. %.
They are accusing Tommy John
son, the Virginia gridiron captain
and ace halfback, of whistling in
the dark when he says he isn't
afraid of the North Carolina team
that comes to Scott Stadium to
play the Cavaliers on Thanks
giving.
Captain Tommy wont talk
much. When pressed for a fur
ther opinion he just smiles and
says:
wait and See."
Those who have watched the
Virginians through the whole Of
the 1884 gridiron compaign belive
that these charges of Coach Gus
Tebell have one great game in
their system, and they hope that
the boys will be able to play it
when they face the, 4ar Heels.
Too Bad?
Since the Carolinians deposed
Duke from leadership in the
Southern Conference there have
been many calamity howlers who
say 1T is just going to be too bad
for Virginia on Thanksgiving"
On the other hand there are as
many more who remember how
the Cavaliers threw scare into
the Tar Heels in 1882. They hope
for another exhibition of such in
spired play on November 20.
Virginia. with johnson leading
the way, performed brilliantly in
the second half of the Navy game.
Two weeks later, before Randy
Garnett was hurt. the Cavaliers
had Dartmouth on the run with
most spectacular attack.
Injuries Bob Up
Through the first part Of the
grid campaign injuries were few
and far between, but since the
game against Dartmouth they
have been sapping the strength Of
a none too strong squad. There
may be too many regulars out for
the Cavaliers to win over the Tar
Heels, but Coach Gus Tebell and
his assistants have been trying to
develop men to take the place Of
those who have fallen by the way
side and in some instances they
appear to have been successful.
Captain Tommy Johnson be-
lieves the entire Virginia team
may be able to turn in its best
game against Carolina. This opin-
ion is shared by many of John
sons mates. But whether inspira-
ton can lift this small and gallant
band to the heights of equal com"
petition against Cardinals great
skill and strength is something
that only the future can disclose.

DANGER AHEAD
FOR c. v. TEAM
TONIGHT
BY HARRY COSTELLO

There's red light on the track
for the Colonial Express in the
Griffith Stadium.
Tonight, starting at o'clock.
George Washington UniverSity's
football team will see that red
light, too. The red light will be
North Dakota's NodakS, a football
team which G. WIS boys seem to
think is not so hot.
Just why any person of intelli-
gence should think the Nodaks
are not so hot has not been re.
vealed. In practice sessions here,
in preparation for tonight's game.
the visiting outfit has flashed rare
form. The Nodaks look mighty
good, and there is lots of smart
money" wagered on Jack Vests
boys to come through with a win
over G. w.
Up to Leemans
It seems that the Colonials must
depend on the Incompatible
fluffy" Leemans to break the
spell of overconfidence which has
hit G. w. fluffy" has habit
of doing that very thing, which
makes G. WIS supporters feel con-
fident that G. w. will win.
The Colonials tonight will be
seeking their sixth win of the
year. Both Jim Pixlee and Len
Walsh are worried that scoring
this sixth victory is not going to
be an easy matter. AS matter
of fact, both Pixlee and Walsh
are outspoken in their diSpleasure
with the G.. w. squad for its
mental attitude toward tonight'S
game.
Both North Dakota and G. w.
are in the best of shape physically
for tonight's game, but the visitors
seem to have a much superior
mental attitude. North Dakota
is all hoped up over this game.
The Nodaks have in mind an OBJ
jective, said objective being to de-
feat this season every team which
won over the Nodaks in 1888.
Thus far the visiting host has
been successful and only G.. w.
stands between the Dakota eleven
and its objective.
