In many cases. however. the pain develops as

Occasionally pain in the back may be due to some

Eiqht Months Is Too Long

ON the surface that may sound as fair as blue
~ skies but a little thought ought to show that 1t
is far from Just to apply precisely the same rules to
the employed as 70 the employers. For instance

charged for his activity in organizing At least that
his opinion and the opinion Of the union TO
which ne belonged.
After a good deal of difficulty a hearing was
secured before the local compliance board in San
Francisco The board gave no decision but referred
the case 10 Washington. There it hung for several
months at the end OF which time il was referred
back to the local compliance board in San Francisco
Now il has gone into the vastly silences and eight
months have elapsed since the complaint was mace
originally.

of Labor, now holding its annual
meeting in San Francisco, prob
ably will ask for more details of
what is proposed before trying to
pass on the plan.
The United States Chamber of
Commerce, in addition to asking
the President to discuss balancing
the budget, dollar sterilization,
international sterilization of ex-
change, and encouragement of
business initiative, also had asked
for light on the future of govern
ment in business, agricultural pol
icy and public works.
1t got no assurance that the adj
ministration will retreat from any
of its public ownership expert
ments. Agriculture was not dis
cussed. Public works, the Presi-
dent implied, will go on as long as
unemployment continues.
TINE President made it clear
l. that he questions the wisdom
of provisions in NRA codes which
control production or which call
for price fixing, and leans to the
theory that volume of produc-
ton with lower prices can do more
to bring about increased employ
ment.
He indicated that wage rates
NAV have to be put on a yearly
rather than an hourly or weekly
basis, but in discussing this re-
ferred to the workers minimum
needs" rather than the decent
living" which he suggested year
ago as his goal.
Labor saw, in one portion Of
the address, an implied rebuke to
cotton textile mill owners. In
discussing the governments eff
forts to adjust industrial disputes
the President said: The en-
ployer who turns away from i'm
partial agencies of peace, who de-
MES freedom of organization to
his employees, or fails to make
every reasonable effort at peace

is not fully supporting the recov-

He added: The workers who

their good offices to gain their
ends are likewise not fully CO.

Today's Science
: BY DAVID DIETZ

A FLAMING burst of light in the heavens startled
y six emergency relief administration workers at
Salisbury beach near Boston. Through the sky
came hurting shower of flaming meteorites. One
of them, weighing about pound, fell a hundred
feet from the workers. Upon such signs and por-
tents did the ancents seek to learn the future and
the will of the gods
But this is the twentieth century and so one Of
the ERA workers took the meteorte to the Harvard
observatory for Professor Harlow Shapey to inspect
Professor Shapley delivered few remarks upon the
nature of the solar system and the place of meteor
ties in it but made attempt to forecast the future
The falling of these meteorites in Boston serves
to remind of the too pleasant fact that
meteorites of practically any size likely to fall
anywhere at any time. They more unpredctable
than the stock market.
TINE great Siberian fall. is the most dramatic
chapter in the story of meteorites 1t constitutes
the largest known meteorc fall of historic times It
occurred in northern Siberia, 500 miles north OF
Taishet, village the Transiberian Railway. on
July 3d. 1908
News travels slowly in the wilds of Siberia and it
not until 1914 that sufficient information had
trckled into the large cities of Russia to gen
eral interest Then the World war began and there
was little time for investigating the reports.
In 1927. however. the Soviet government sent an
expedition under Professor Leonide A. Kulik TO in
vestigate His findings amazing and terrifying.
He found that group OF meteor1tes had struck
the earth, making more than two hundred depres-
sions, some of them than seventy-five feet in
diameter Around this he found the ground
scared and charred as if with a gigantic blow torch
for fifteen miles in all directions.
D ECORDING barometers in Russia registered the
IN sudden change in air pressure caused by the
explosion while sesmographs in all parts Of the world
registered the tremors of the earth's crust which
were occasioned by the impact
All Of London or Paris or New York would have
been wiped out the meteorites had fallen upon one
Of those cities.
The question which many persons win ask as
result of the Boston occurrence: What is meteor-
tie? AS good an answer as any is: Cosnic rubbish.
Apparently when the planets and satellites Of
the solar system took shape. there was lot OF ma
terial left over Space within the solar system Is

friction causes it to become white hot and glow. We
call it shooting star. Technically, 1t is known as
meteor.
A meteor large enough to escape destruction from
friction against the atmosphere, is known, when It
strikes the ground, a meteorite.

plaintiff.
The rent comes in short runs and so does the
butchers bill.
Speaking of some new methods Of adjustment"
set I'D by the government President Roosevelt said,
Both employers and employees must share the blame
Of not using them as fully they should" II
blame is being passed around why not reserve slice
for the government itself in those cases where 1t has
dillied and dallied and in those cases where the
plain language Of Section IA has been twisted to
make a compromise agreeable to the automobile
magnates and others.
To paraphrase ancient wheeze there are all
too many cases in which, The NRA decision was a
huge success but the patient died of slow starvation
while waiting TO hear it."

Industry got four separate as
surances that the President be-
lieves in and will encourage the
earning of fair profits.
But those industrial groups most
concerned about the f1uctuating
value of the dollar had to content
themselves with reading what they
could into President RooseveltS
reminder that England has not
returned to the gold standard.
Those most interested in the
balanced budget had still less to
go on.
Those most interested in the
future form of NRA learned only
that the wisdom of many existing
code provisions is seriously ques-
toned and that the newly effected
reorganization of NRA is only "A
period of preparation for legisla-
ton which will determine its per-
manent form"
ORGANIZED labor found in
~ the speech a reaffirmation of
belief in collective bargaining
rights, but was left to wonder just
what the President has in mind

specific trial period of industrial
peace" The American Federation

Not So Hot, the Deans Opine.

TINE boys were challenged on this point and
Brother Dizzy said the reporters had been so nice
to him and Brother Daily that he thought he would
give each of his interviews exclusive angle so to
speak. Now however, the only town of the three
which he could remember was Holdenvile. SO he
guessed it must have been Holdenville, at that.
The Dean brothers seriously underpaid by
their proprietor Mr. Sam Breadon, who operates the
ST. Louis Cardinals. Not only that, but they were
suspended and fined only few weeks back for some
acts of mutiny. Brother Dizzy, ordered to proceed
to Detroit for exhibition game, decided not to
and was laid off for this failure Both brothers then
struck and enacted a two-handed labor riot in the
Cardinals undressing room in ST. Louis. Mr..
Breadon broke the strike and imposed certain cash
penalties deductible from their wages. Mr.. Breadon
is strict capitalist.
Notwithstanding this trouble the brothers con-
tinued to sling the baseball past the htters with
innocent enthusiasm and finally overcame the Giants
who were seven games ahead of the Cardinals a
month ago. This pitching job of theirs this year
industry 1t amazed every but the Dean brothers
who said they would have done even better if they
had not had that trouble with the boss 1t included
twelve victories the Giants in thirteen contests
On the basis of this record against the Giants, the
baseball experts do not believe the Tigers do
much better than go through the motions of sub
siding in honorable defeat They confronted with
the job of winning four games out of seven from
the Deans.
