UNION WINS
Pay Boost For Sheet Tin
Workers

Pittsburgh, Pa.-Officials of the
Amalgamated Association of Iron,
Steel and Tin Workers were jubilant
over their success in winning from the
Western Sheet and Tin Plate Manu-
facturers Association new contracts
carrying higher wage scales and i'm
portant concessions to union labor.
The conferences lasted four days, and
an immediate advance Of 31a per cent
in wages was announced.
The scale was changed from the
$3.50 base price Of sheet to $2.15, the
base upon which wages were figured
in 1928. Wages, thus, for the next
year, will be computed on the basis
of sheet selling at $2.15.
Under the new agreement, for every
Scent advance from the $2.15 base
price, workers will receive 1h per
cent in wages. Sheet is now selling
at $265, which automatically brings
union members an increase in wages.
Michael F. Tighe, president of the
Amalgamated Association, was pleas
ed with the results of the conferences.
"We have been fighting for this for
two years." he said. formerly sheet
had to go to $2.25 before we could get
an increase in wages"
The wages are determined each 60
days on the gasis of the price Of
sheet. The 31s per cent increase just
won will be effective for the next 60
days. Contractual working conditions,
it was learned, are essentially the
same as last year.

Trenton, N. J. (ILNS)-The state

work where the arrangement can be

was adopted at the request Of Henry

for the open, fewer than 20 have

play each other next week the game
should be a hummer.
1t was too much heavy stick work
on the part of winners last night
with Brown leading the attack with
syo homeruns. Holcomb added two
doubles to the collection and sun
dry other hits off the Golden State
twirler were enough to put the game
away.
Each team scored one run in the
first inning; the winners added an
Ooher in the second and still another
in the third. The Golden Staters. by
scoring twice, tied up the ball game
and it appeared that a tight game
would result. However, the Coca
Colas scored three in the fourth,
one in the fifth and added three
more tallieS for good measure in the
first of the ninth. The best the los
ers could do was to add one more
run in the fourth inning to bring
their total for the game to four.

Weather ylclssitudes, insect pests
and other trlbulations of farmers. as
we'll as some kindlier farm fortunes,
are In the hands OF Koh-Zen. the Chi
nese god of crops. says the Farm
Journal.
In order to properly look after the
crops, Koh-Zen has three heads with
seven eyes and six hands.
In the upper two hands he holds the
red sun and the green moon; In the
second pair are the "wInd-charm,"
made Of the seven stars OF the Great
Bear, and the "Rainbell," and with
these he governs and distributes wind
and rain to farmers.
The lower hands grip two swords,
with which he stands off any dangers
and devils that threaten the crops.
Even though 80 wen equipped per-
sonally, he still needs four sub gods
with swords and spears to do a really
good Job of crop making for his de-
voices.
