Moro Castle, Built at Newport

NEWPORT NEWS, Va, September
8.-The MORO Castle, a long liner
with rakish lines, was built at the yard
of the Newport News Shipbuilding and
Dry Dock Co., and was launched
March S, 1880.
Built for the Ward Line, the Moro
Castle sailed from the local shipyard
August Is, 1880, for New York City,
to be placed in regular passenger and
freight service. A party of about SO
persons, headed by Vice President H.
E. Cabaud of the Ward Line, made
the trip to New York.
When she set out on her maiden
voyage from New York to Havana,
Cuba, August %, 1880, festooned with
flags, the Moro Castle already had
won the title of being one of the
fastest turbo-electric liners af1oat by
maintaining an average speed of 81
knots in trials.
The 508-foot Moro Castle had a
tonnage of 1880.
Accommodations were provided for
more than 500 passengers, the liner
being luxuriouSly appointed, featuring
spacious public rooms. The treatment
of theH public spaces was distinctly
modernistic.

TO Be DISPLAYED
National Park Service to
Prepare Monsters for
View of Sightseers.
BY THOMAS r. HENRY.

An 10000 000- -year-old graveyard of
giants is being opened up to the
American sightseer by the National
Park Service.
When the job is finished the skele-
tons of creatures compared, to which
the largest elephant would compare as
would medium-sized dog to a horse,
will be shown on the face of a noun
tainSide in approximately the posi-
tonS in which they died back in the
days when the position of the Rocky
Mountains was a great swamp.
DR.. H. C. Bryant, assistant director
of the National Park Service, has Just
returned from the great dinosaur
graveyard in Utah, where thousands
of bones of the monsters, in a fine
state of preservation, have been
found. Hitherto the Dinosaur Ma
tional Monument has been a para
disc for collectors since it was dis
covered in 1909 by Prof. Earl B. Doug
las of the Carnegie Museum of Pitts
burgh. Some of the choicest speci-
mems of the Smithsonian Institution
and the American Museum of Natural
History have been hewed out of the
hard sandstone there and shipped
East. But to the layman the strange
spot has meant little and seldom has
been visited. although relatively ac-
cessible. There were the giant bones
sticking out of the rock on the noun
tain's face, where the stone had been
weathered away, but they were in a
confusion which it was hard to Wis
ualize as an actual animal.
Rock to Be Hewn
Away From Skeletons.
The restored dinoSaur in museum
hardly conveys the same impression
of reality as do the actual bones in
place. The present project contem-
plates hewing away the rock around
one or more complete skeletons so that
the creature can be seen almost in
the position in which it died, with the
skeleton clearly outlined on the cliff.
The American Museum of Natural
History has volunteered to hew out
the bones-a job requiring consider
able technical skill-providing the
Government removes the rock strata
below to a depth equal to that in
which the skeletons are found. This
work now is being done with F. E. r. A.
workers, having been started as a
C. w. A. project. The bones will be
treated to preserve them from the
weather and special lighting effects
provided.
When the job is done, it is expected.
one of the weirdest spots on earth
will be open in a way in which it can
be appreciated. 1t has been under
the jurisdiction of the National Park
Service since 1915, with idea of pre-
serving it from unlicensed private ex-
ploitation.
For some reason this particular site
was a death trap to the creatures.
The biggest yet recovered was 100
feet long, 20 feet high and must have
weighed about 20 tons in life. At that
time the land was marshy. This may
have been a waterhole to which the
animals congregated from miles
around and where they either became
engulfed in quicksand or were over
taken by some sudden catastrophe. 1t
seems unlikely that they merely sunk

The dinosaur work is only one of
the more interesting of the jobs be-
ing done by the National Park Serv-
ice, using F. E. r. A. workers, which
otherwise probably could not have
been completed for many years. Con-
siderable work also is being carried
out in Zion National Park, where
quite a few new cliff dwellings have
been discovered.

pany, Bordentown, n. ] to determine whether
the employees wish to have union representatives
TO act for them in negotiations with the manage
ment to determine wages, hours, and working
conditions, and if so who those representatives
shall be. The board reached this decision after
a hearing at which representatives of the United
Garment Workers of America and the company
stated the case.
Mrs. A. Crescent, a member OF the shop COM
mittee representing the Garment Workers I'M
ion, charged that the company fostered a COM
pany union and asked that it be disbanded. She
said that in December the company discharged
two members of the union who were active in
union work, both of whom had been employed
by the concern for a number of years. She gave
an account Of attempts at mediation by the local
compliance board, the State compliance board,
and finally by the Newark Regional Labor
Board, which notified the company it had found
violations of the labor section of the National
Recovery Act and ruled that the two discharged
union employees be rehired, which was done.
A report from Professor D. A. McCabe, the
member of the Subcommittee of the Newark Re
gional Board which investigated the case, show
ed that Jacob Zobel, part owner Of the plant, had
stated before the regional board that he would
not recognize any outside union or sign an agree
ment with any union, but he would sign an agree
ment with a company union"
J. B.. Tomlinson, city councillor OF Borden
town, spokesman for Zobel, said that Zobel had
changed his mind and that the company would
now deal with the official union" He added
that the company will not do anything which
may be construed as a penalty for joining the
union before the election is held, and that after
the election it would not exercise any discrimina-
ton against union workers.

MINNEAPOLIS CWA J0BLESS STORM
COURT HOUSE

The precarious existence of millions OF unem-
ployed working men and women throughout the
United States was poignantly illustrated when
the CWA authorities here, acting, it was said, on
instructions from Washington, cut some $500
workers off the CWA payrolls.
Over 400 OF these jobless workers, who found
that they and their families were without fuel,
food or funds, experiencing difficulty in getting
back on relief rolls, stormed the court house with
the demand that the board OF public welfare sup
ply them with these necessities OF life within for
ty-eight hours.
Fired from the CWA, the unemployed who
had been working as laborers for SIS cents an
hour, found themselves in a desperate condi-
ton. The 24-hour week basis of work which
had been applied recently meant that they were
receiving the munificent sum of $500 per week.
These workers were, of course, men with fam
lilies because the CWA banned single men from
its projects. On their CWA pay checks they
were just able to get by, and when they were
cut off the CWA jobs they were absolutely with
out funds, food and fuel.
In answer to their application for relief the
demonstrators were told that Investigators
would be sent out to see whether their families
were really cold and hungry, but realizing the
tenSeness of the situation, the Public Welfare
Board promised that the 400 jobless would be
furnished fuel Immediately and grocery orders
within 48 hours.
