has been signed-a five-year agree
ment with contractor employers pro-
viding the six-hour day, five-day week
for the 10000 members of the union
on O pay basis of the eight-hour day.
The contract will become effective i'm
mediately, Feeney said, in any locality
in which any other four of the build
ing trades unions negotiate similar
agreements.
The document also provides for an
absolutely closed shop and gives the
elevator constructors the right to
strike at any time to support any
movement for the 30-hour week.
While the delegates were cheering
this announcement, Col. w. F. Axton,
tobacco manufacturer Of Louisville,
KY, arose and made lively speech
in support of the 30-hour week as the
means of getting everybody back to
work.
"If we want to get business back
we must give employment to labor"
Axton said Industry at the same
time must be protected from unfair
competition by such means as codes"
The arrival of John L. Lewis, presi-
dent of the United Mine workers Of
America, gave impetus to the fight for
extension of the A. F. Of L. into the
industrial union field and to the plan
to increase the executive council from
II to % members.
Although Lewis, controlling 5000
convention votes, was opposed by
Green on the council plan, the miners
leader removed the last doubt concern
ing Green's reelection by announcing
that he would not only back Green
but would place him in nomination.

the War department and headed by

Material Employed for
Nations Shoe Supply

There are approximately 100000
600 pairs OF shoes manufactured an
nually in the, United States. Women
get over 1OO,0O0O00 pairs of them:
men about 70000,00O pairs; boys and
youths, 100000 pairs, and misses
and children over 35,000,00O pairs.
So that It Is evident that the answer
to "who wears shoes" shows that
mothers and matrons get their full
share of this merchandise. Few per-
sons ever stop to think that the
leather of modern shoe was once a
hide on the back of COW, or a steer
that roamed the ranges of Texas. or
possibly Argentina; and that the
nails, eyelets, lace tips, counter and
the heel plate, were once iron ore in
a mine Of northern Michigan; while
the "spiffy' buckles and heel cover
ings were made in practically the
same manner that guncotton is pro-
duced. With slight chemical changes,
the manufacturers are able to turn
this near-explosive into beautiful
pyralln, and use 1t as 1t is in vogue
today for ornamenting the shoes that
women and children are wearing.
Folk are stepping out nowadays, but
there aren't many of them who stop
to realize the stress of human brain
power that has been devoted to the
production of a modern pair of shoes.

Stomach upsets and bowel troubles
of grouping children can often be traced
TO this single mistake.
There is a better way to relieve
those occasional sluggish spells OF
constipation in a child Of any age:
Use a liquid laxative containing
SIENNA Ia natural laxative). California
Syrup of Figs has the right amount
for children's use, and this rich, frulty
syrup does not harm or upset child's
system.
Doctors advise liquid laxatives,
and hospitals use the liquid form.
Almost any child who has been
convalescing in the hospital usually
comes out with bowels working like
q well-regulated watch.
Make the change now to pure,
California Syrup Of Figs instead OF
harsh medicines, you won't risk any
more violence to your child's appetite,
digestion, and general physical condi-
ton. Those little upsets and COM
plants just disappear as rule and
the child is soon normal and happy
THE LIQUID TEST" First:
select liquid laxative of the proper
strength for children. Second: give
the dose suited to the child's age.
Third: reduce the dose, if repeated.
until the bowels are moving without
any help at all.
An ideal laxative for this purpose
is the pure California Syrup of Figs.
but be sure the word California
is on the bottle.

Problem

They want to see the government spend
all of the money that is necessary to
keep people from starving but they are
beginning to demand that some way
be found by which the sheep may be
separated from the goats and proper

Here in Washington taste of the
condition mentioned above has been
exposed as the result of complaints by
a taxpayers organization. The tax
payers group declared that its inves-
tigators had found many unemployed

ing their own automobiles, they
thought it was paradoxical that a man
could afford to maintain his automo-
bile and could not maintain his family.
Relief authorities in the local offices
denied these charges. The relief ex-
perts said some of the destitute were
being transported to relief headquar-
tiers in the cars of friends. but despite
the denials there seemed to have been
