Why You Should
Never Cut a Corn

II you are troubled with corns or CAL
louSes. do not run the risk Of blood
poison by pairing them. Statistics show
that many deaths have occurred from
this seemingly innocent practice Of par
ing corns.
Simply 20 to your druggist and get .
few cents worth of Ice Mint, rub a little
on any painful corn or callous. I'm
mediately the pain will disappear and
in a short time the corn or callous will
loosen and lift off easily with the fin.
gers-root and all--leaving the surround
ing skin in q healthy normal condition.
This. together with the fact that Ice
Mint overcomes such affections as sore,
tired, aching, puffed or burning feet
and makes them cool, easy and comfort
able, is probably responsible for the
hearty endorsement given 1t by drug
gists.
To rid ones feet Of every hard corn,
soft corn, corn between the toes or pain
full callouses in such . pleasant and safe
way, makes it seem the height Of folly
for anyone to pare . corn and people
are warned to stop 1t.

|NC0NFERENCE
BY International News Service

BY International News Service
The House today sent the de-
ficiency appropriations bill to con
ference with the Senate. The
measure, passed by the upper body
yesterday; carries 1,713 million dol
lars, which includes additional
funds for emergency relief pur
poses.
When the measure first passed
the House, the relief "bill'' was a
little less than 1900 million dol
lars, but the drought situation
called for additional expenditures
which, with other Senate amend
ments, increased the total.
The measure, as passed by the
Senate, calls for appropriations as
follows:
Civilian Conservation Corps,
Federal Emergency Relief, and
Public Works Authority, 500
millions.
Drought relief, 525 millions.
Reconstruction Finance Cor
poration, 500 millions.
Road building and miScel1ane-
Gus items, 273 millions.

CARPENTERS
FEAR TRUCE
PROV|SO
Contractors Insist Delegates
To ParIey Be Authorized
To Strike Bargain
BY EUGENE A. KELLY

Capital and labor were mark
ing time in Washington today as
carpenters went into a huddle to
discuss peace proposals made by
contractors yesterday.
! Members of the Master Build
ers' Association, and out-of-town
contractors have agreed to ap-
point a committee to meet with
representatives of the carpenters
and discuss their difficulties.
The carpenters committee, how
ever, must be empowered by its
membership to discuss terms, bar
gain, and draw up legal con-
tract which would be binding In
the courts. the builders have as
serted in making their proposal
UItimatum Due
The washington Building
Trades Council, of which the
carpenters organization is a mem
ber, will issue an ultimatum to
the carpenters that they act on
the proposal either by accepting
or refusing it.
If they refuse they will lose the
further support Of the council In
their fight for higher wages and
shorter hours, John Locher, sec
retary of the council said today.
Labor observers here considered
It unlikely that the carpenters will
give the necessary authority to
such a committee. It was pointed
out that all discussions regarding
wages and hours must be referred
to the full membership.
The entire strike situation was
discussed at a conference today
between Commissioner George E.
Allen and william L. Hutcheson,
president of the Carpenters In
ternational Union. Following his
talk with, the Commissioner, Mr..
HutcheSon said he was "StiL
hopeful'' that the tangled Situa-
ton would soon unravel itself.
$1.25 Scale Rejected
The carpenters went out on
strike May for $1.37h an hour
and Six-hour day. They voted
down two peace proposals Of $1.25
an hour.
Pickets peacefully patrolled con-
struction jobs here today in an
effort to dissuade Strike-breaking
carpenters from going to work.
All proceedings are being care:
fully watched by extra forces OF
police on foot and in cars.
No violence has been reported
since the "open shop" policy for
carpenters was declared Thursday,
and no efforts have been made
by pickets to physically deter the
40 or more strike-breaking carpen-
ters from going to their jobs.

The girl left home a week before
graduation from a Grafton school
was to have taken place. Her
mother, who at first believed she
had ben kidnapped, has offered
a 500 reward for information
leading to her whereabouts.

Chief Executive Advances Date
Of Sailing; Reaches the
HaWaiiaS in a Month
BY EDWARD LOCKITT

So~S0~
President Roosevelt has post
poned from June 26 to June 80,
the tentative sailing date for his
trip to Hawaii.
This delay will move back from
July 26 to July 80, the date on
which the President" expects to

velt will return to Washington for
a few days to clean up his desk
and on June 80 will leave for
Hawaii, aboard the cruiser Hous-
ton, from Annapolis, Md.
Conversations with adminiStra-
tive leaders and with labor repre-
SentativeS were on today'S sched-
ule, leading up to settlement Of
the labor trouble.
Already, the President has COM
municated with labor chieftainS
several times by telephone since
the convention of union steel
workers in Pittsburgh called off
the strike originally scheduled for
today.
A Big Vacation
In addition to the steel Situa-
ton, there are a dozen other i'm
portant matters that must be
taken care of before the President
can get away for his vacation.
Dozens Of bills, some Of major
some Of minor Importance, must
be signed. The President does
not intend to leave the Capital

All this disposed Of, the Presi-
dent will prepare for a summers

Six Labor Leaders Named to
Come Here and Offer
Green Peace Plan
BY JAMES L. KILGALLEN
International News Service
Staff Correspondent

PITTSBURGH, June 16 G.N.
S0.-Happy and relieved over the
calling off of threatened nation
wide steel strike, Michael F..
Tithe. president Of the Amalga-
mated Association of Iron, Steel
and Tin Workers, today sent o
telegram of appreciation and
gratitude to william Green,
president Of the American Fed
Grafton Of Labor.
Tighe thanked Green for his
splendid service" in causing to
be held in allegiance what would
nave been the greatest industrial
conflict that the iron and steel
industry has ever witnessed"
The strike, scheduled for to-
day was averted as a result of
the personal appeal of Green
who submitted a proposal which
the union leaders adopted. This
proposal was that the steel work.
ers ask President Roosevelt to an.
point an impartial board of three
members to handle all controver.
sial labor questions in the steel
industry.
Tighe said that UP to noon to-
day he had received no direct
word from Washington that
President Roosevelt would receive
the union delegation which plans
to visit the White House on Mon.
day and lay the Green proposal
before the President.
The following telegram, signed
by Tfghe, President, and Louis
Leonard, Secretary Treasurer of
the Amalgamated Association, was
dispatched to Green at Washing
ton.:
Speaking for the entire men,
berShip Of the Amalgamated
Association of Iron, Steel and
Tin Workers, we desire to ex.
press to you our gratitude and
sincere appreciation for the
splendid service rendered in
coming to our convention and
by SO doing made possible
through your counsel and per-
SOnal appeal the holding in
allegiance Of what would have
been the greatest industrial con-
flict that the iron and steel
industry has ever witnessed"
The telegram was sent "by order
Of the International Executive
Board"
In the meantime the 200 dele
gates to the steel workers special
strike" convention were either
back or returning to their homes
to report to their lodges and as
sure their members that "the next
move is up to President Roose-
velt."
Full control of any future
action was left in the hands of
the officers of the Amalgamated
Association which practically put
an end to aggressive activities Of
the frank and file" element
within the union.

NEW YORK, June is d.N.S).
Mystery surrounding the disap-
pearance of Miss Agnes Tufver-

turned up by police during the
last few days proved false.
The body Of a woman recov-
cred from Long Island Sound a
week ago was studied by detec-
tives and it's characteristics COM
pared with those of Miss TufVer-

AS a result Of their findings,
friends and relatives of the miss

dashing officer who married Miss

charge of bigamy.
While at first he denied marry
