1t was just mild, grade b

proper luffing on the high seas.
Mr.. Sopwith's claim was disalloWed

decisions protested over here when
one competitor thinks the rules have

v Greenberg, Gehringer, Rogell
and Owen may not be able to
give a mellow touch to Sweet Adeline"
under the clubhouse shower, but they
can play harmonious tunes with their
bats and put up an iron-bound defense
against anything the base ball enemy
has to offer.
They are four of the main reasons
why the Tigers are well equipped to
tackle either the Giants or the Car
dinals in the forthcoming world series.
Like a quartet of grenadiers they have
stood shoulder to shoulder all season,
breaking up opposing attacks and in
turn providing most of the ammuni-
ton for Detroit's winning rallies.

SEASONAL
Decrease Reported in N. Y
Factory Employment

Albany, N. Y. (ILNS)-A decrease
of LIZ per cent in employment and a
drop of 1.8 per cent in total payrolls
occurred in New York state factories
in the period from the middle of May
to the middle of June, Industrial
Commissioner Elmer F. Andrews re-
ports.
The losses lowered the state labor
departments index numbers, which
are computed with the averages for
the three years 1925-1927 taken as
100, to 71.2 per cent for employment
and 571 for payrolls. AS compared
with year ago, employment and
payrolls during the middle of June
were 1877 per cent and 26.6 per cent
greater, respectively.
Seasonal decreases in New York
state factory employment and pay
rolls are customary in June, but the
declines reported by the labor depart
ment were somewhat more pronounc-
ed than the average for the 10 years
1915-1933.

At the fftieth annual convention
of the Ohio State Federation of La
Dor, held last week in Columbus
Stanley Ogg, the well known and
popular leader in the local labor move
ment, was honored in the election of
officers by being elevated to the Sec
ond vice presidency of the state body.
He has, for a number Of years, serv-
er as third vice president of the or
ganization, and his promotion is but
deserved tribute for services well
and faithfully performed in the past.
Ogg reports the golden jubilee con-
vention one Of the best in the history
of the state organization.
0. B. Chapman, Dayton, Ohio, was
named president. He has been acting
president since the death of former
president, Harry Mclaughlin. In ad-
dition to Chapman and Ogg, other of.
fcers elected were:
William NJ Morgan, Newark, a
member of the Musicians Union,
first vice president; James F. NAL
ley, Cleveland, steam filter, third
vice president; Michael j. Lyden,
Youngstown, street railway employe,
fourth vice president; Albert Dalton,
Cleveland, asbestos worker, fifth vice
president; Tracey A. Douglas, Akron,
rubber worker, sixth vice president,
and George Suder, Cincinnati, gar
ment worker, seventh vice president.
These officers, with Thomas j.
Donnelly, Columbus, secretary treas
urer, make up the executive board,
which will decide the 1885 convention
city. Akron, Columbus and Dayton
put in strong bids for the next meet
ing.
The federation considered scores of
resolutions and passed more than two
score of them.
The resolutions denounced Fascism,
asked for an unconditional pardon for
Thomas Mooney and Warren Billings,
urged numerous amendments to the
state workmen's compensation law to
make easier the receiving of compen-
sation by injured workers; asked Gov
ernor White to protect the constitu-
tional rights of striking onion work
ers in Hardin county; suggested
amendments to make possible open
primaries; protested delay in enforce
ment of a state taxicab code, and ask
ed more consideration for union work
ers by federal and state relief agen-
cies.
One of the resolutions asked the
state to adopt the fve-day week as
an example to industry. Others
pledged support to the parent organ
ization, the American Federation OF
Labor, in it's efforts to bring about
the 30-hour week and condemned
company unions and asked Ohio con-
gressmen to work for a bill that
would prohibit such employer-spon-
sored organizations.
