CHANGES SHIPS NAME
Henry L. Roosevelt Uses Name
of His Home Town.

Because the Coast Guard possessed
a craft of similar name, Assistant
Secretary Henry L. Roosevelt of the
Navy Department, has changed the
name of his official craft to the
Skaneateles, which is that of his home
town in New York State.
This developed today when 1t be-
came known that Mr. Roosevelt was
dissatisfied with the name Onandaga
for his ship, which is now at the
Washington Navy Yard being recon-
ditioned after its life as a Coast
Guard rum chaser. Skaneateles, in
Onandaga County, N. Y. and is a
residential and Summer resort on a
lake of the same name.
Assistant Secretary Roosevelt makes
his home here at 1923 @ street. His
other residence is at Roosevelt Hall at

you, but a man had rather hit
you than tear his car up."

Democracy has somehow been in
the discard.
Meanwhile, the money-crats had
their own dictatorship.
The throne room was-was-in
Wall street.
It's removal anywhere else caused
pain
In the former seat of government.
The 'fraidy-cats are kind Of q
mongrel-
Sort of cross between windbag
and sounding-board.
They are the kind of folks who Just
must talk.
When they hear strong wind
blowing in from the prairies-
They try to talk like that.
And when there is laundering
mutter from Wall street
They can't keep from echoing that.
Their thinking apparatus is just a
receiving station.
They don't even readjust their pre-
JUDGES by way Of thinking.

CHICAGO BANK
Opposes Insurance of De-
Deposits

Chicago, nl.-Officials of the Har-
ris Trust and Savings Bank limited in
letter to the stockholders that it
might withdraw the federal reserve
system rather than submit to the de-
posit insurance plan to which 13,423
banks out of 1864 have agreed. The
plan, backed by the federal govern
ment, compels banks to contribute to
fund partially financed by the gov
ernment to guarantee the safety of
deposits up to $250O.
Officials of the Harris concern de-
clare that this insurance throws an
unlimited liability upon the banks"
They should have added that the sole
liability imposed on the banks is the
guarantee that when they borrow
money from depositors that money
shall be returned to the depositors
in full regardless Of either the ineffi-
cheney or dishonesty Of bank officials.

HIGH COURT
Enjoins Fake Union in NRA
State Test
Upholding New York's SchacknO
Act, Judge Restraints Theatre
Owners and Employers From
Violating Motion Picture Code

New York City (ILNS)-The Inde-
pendent Theatre Owners Association
and the Allied Motion Picture Opera
tors Union, Inc, company union,"
set up and fostered by the employers,
were enjoined temporarily from vio-
lating the motion picture code, in
decision by Supreme Court Justice
William T. Collins upholding the le-
gality of the Schackno act. New York
state law similar to the national re-
covery act
The injunction was granted at the
request of Harry A. Sherman, presi-
dent of Local 306, International ALI
ance Of Motion Theatrical Stage En-
ployes and Motion Picture Machine
Operators, who charged that the en-
ployers discharged members of his
union and created the company
union" in an endeavor to evade the
motion picture code. A hearing was
set for January 20 at when the COM
plainant will ask for permanent in
junction and for $1,OOO,000 damages.
Sherman declared that the Independ-
ent Theatre Owners Association en-
tered into ten-year contract with
the company union" and that the
association then began discharging
members of the plaintiff union. Hours
of work were increased beyond the
forty hours week set by the code,
and wages were cut below the code
minimum, it is charged
Justice Collins said that he would
bring the case to trial within the
month because Of the Importance Of
the issues, to speed up their final
determination, and to minimize any
harm which the preliminary injunc-
tion may occasion"
IF the presidents program is to
be vitalized and effcacious, if it is to
be more than rostrum entreaty,
then all who come within it's purview
must adhere to it's mandates" JUS
tice Collins said. "The code seeks to
invest the recovery program not only
with lips but with heart and con-
science, and a strong arm to blud-
geon-with legal process if need be-
the timid, the recalcitrant, the shir-
ker and the dodger."

The'fraidy-cats.
The money-crats are deeply concern
ed
About democracy!
The 'fraidy-cats are just getting
plain scared.
Both are talking about the danger
of something
The danger of counter-revolution.
The money-crats never cared tin
ker's tinkle about democracy.
They liked to use it for camou-
fage-
Sometimes their spokesmen used it
for an opiate,
Administered in large and fulsome
doses
On the Fourth of July,
Or Decoration Day.
Since Wilson,
On Armistice Days.

They have no real prejudices!
Wall street has some prejudices.
'Fraidy-cats cringe when stocks 20
down.
And then stiffen up, when the cold
wind comes from the corn states.
When NRA calls in the members
of an Industry
Wall street calls that dictator
ship"
When Morgan called in the Steel
Industry,
For the purpose Of reorganizing
it
Incidentally, for the purpose of
milking it.
Wall street called that "leader-
ship"
And it was just that.
But when NRA gets the same folks
together in room,
And tells them to get acquainted
with their own business,
And learn how to run it them-
selves

Higher Purchasing Power
Under NRA Aids Big Stores

New Orleans (ILNS)-Despite the
fact that the NRA has hoisted the
overhead expenses of the big depart
ment stores in New Orleans approxi-
mately 35 per cent over those of pre-
vious years, both in hours of labor
and the increased number of employees
to comply with the code, and last but
not least, the uniform wage Of $12
week for the clerks, bushes has
increased owing to the increased pur-
chasing power brought New Orleans
workers by code wages.
