DETROIT, Nich.-Since the advent
of the MIRA. into Detroit bakeries
the bakery workers certainly under
stand the national slogan, do Your
Part" as they have done to the ex-
tent of accepting wage slashes, being
forced to sign false statements about
working conditions, sanitary condi-
tions in bakeries getting worse, and
the increased speed-up instituted by
big company efficiency experts.
An investigation of the five largest
bakeries in Detroit revealed the fol-
lowing facts:
Winkeler's Bakeries, with nine
branches in the city. was one of the
first to fly the blue buzzard.

Portland c. W. A.
Workers Win Pay
by Demonstration
BY a Worker Correspondent

FOR LAM, Malne.-Ine T.. w &.
A. of Portland took 500 people off
the city's relief list and put them to
work on different jobs around town
like digging bitches, tearing hills
down, fixing sewers, etc, but GOO
new ones applied for help in the
meantime.
On the North Street job, where
the largest crew of men is working,
conditions are the worst. Here men
work upon a hill exposed to the sea
breezes in the bitter cold with pick
and shovel. The foremen are slave
drivers. 1t is not allowed to talk
on the job. Two men were trans
ferred to work on the dump for
"too much talking"
The first week they received S11,
the second week only SO and they
had to run around before they got
their pay.
On Saturday, Dec. 9, the men as
sembled at the city stables in the
bitter cold, started riot. A COM
mittee was elected to demand "the
pay on the job" and that a shanty
be built on the job as a shelter for
the workers where they shall be
able to have their dinner protected
from the wind.
A petition was circulated and 800
signatures collected When the riot
broke out, the police were called,
but the workers pushed the cops into
a corner and kept them there.
Last week every worker received
from $18 to $22. At the mass meet
ing we held here Thursday, Dec. IA,
resolutions were accepted against
the fascist Leipzig trial and for the
liberation of the Scottsboro boys.

Sexual Frigidity

S. T. E., Fallon, Nev.-From your
description, it seems that the young
woman is suffering from lack Of
ovarian secretion. Such cases are
due either to congenital condition
(frcm birthl4er to some sickness such
as scarlet fever or mumps which
causes an inflammation and later an
atrophy (wasting) of the ovaries. In

psychological or anatomical (due to
lack of development of the clitoris).

PROBATION SYSTEM
UPHELD BY OFFICER
Benefits Far Outweigh Evils, Dis
trict Court Worker Says
in Report.

Amos A. Steele, probation officer of
District Supreme Court, came to the
defense of the probation system in his
annual report to the court yesterday
Its benefits" he said. far outweigh
any evils that might flow from it. OBJ
viously no system of law can be per-
feet in dealing with violators of the
law but probation. more than any
other criminal law process. tends to
diminish the number of recidivists.
The courts are constantly called
upon to deal with these thousands of
first offenders and also with offenders
who have records for miSdemeanorS of
various types. 1t is SO much easier to
send them all to prison than it is to
take the time. the pains and the
patience to investigate each case and
to deal with them as human beings
having in mind always the larger view
that by saving them in the first in
stance they may never return TO the
courts"
During the fiscal year 1894, he said
probation was granted in 322 criminal
cases and in l3 non-support cases
Probation was revoked in AZ cases.

PLAYGROUND URGED
IN MOUNT PLEASANT
Boys Club Also Asked to Reduce
Increasing Juvenile De-
linquency.

Establishment of playground and
boys club facilities in the Mount
Pleasant area would be the most eff
fective means of cutting down the
amount of juvenile delinquency in
that section, it was agreed at
a conference Thursday night at the
Mount Pleasant Congregational
Church.
Lewis Holmes, athletic director of
the Powell Junior High School, was
the principal speaker. the meeting
being in charge of Rev. Russell j
Clinchy, pastor of the church. About
$50 attended.
With a population Of about 10000
the Mount Pleasant area hasn't a
single playground or boys club, Mr.
Holmes told the gathering. This cir
cumstance. he said, has been an i'm
portant contributing factor in a
marked increase in juvenile delin-
quency in that section Availability
OF recreational facilities would allow
boys to spend their spare time in
more healthful pursuits than those
which transgresS the law, he said
1t was decided that group OF
civic leaders of that section should
meet soon 10 plan community
mass meeting. At that time, gen.
eral support of the movement to
establish boys club would be sought
and purchase of land for a play
ground site would be considered.

R|CHbERG FIGHTS
DECISION ON GUILD
Holds Labor Board Should
Not Have Considered Call
Bulletin Case.
BY the Associated Press,

BY the Associated Press.
Two of the leading legal lights Of
the administration lined up yesterday
with the San Francisco CALI Bulletin,
a Hearst paper, in its fight against the
administrations National Labor Re-
lationS Board.
Donald r. Richberg, executive di-
rector Of the National Emergency
Council, and Blackwell Smith, counsel
of the National Recovery Administra-
ton, argued that the board should
never have considered a complaint by
Dean S. Jennings, Call-Bulletin re-
write man, that he was discharged be-
cause of his activities as member OF
the American Newspaper Guild.
Both Richberg and Smith filed
lengthy briefs with the board yester-
day after the board agreed to sus-
pend its decision which held it could
take Jurisdiction in the case and
ordered the Bulletin to reinstate
Jennings.
SItCS LACNhtNC Oi1Cis
Richberg built his legal argument
around his contention that may"
means shall" and carries no con-
notation of discretion.
The executive order establishing the
Labor Relations Board says that the

H. L,,
Both Richberg and the paper con-
tend the complaint should have been
considered by the Newspaper Indus
trial Board, a labor disputes agency
set up by the newspaper code.
The Labor Relations Board, to the
contrary, argues that the executive
order gave the board discretion as
to what cases it should consider.
Pleads for Harmony.
Richberg went beyond legal argu-
ment however, to plead for harmony
between the various agencies of Gov
eminent and to say that both the
N. R. A. and the publishers under
stood the code provided for handling
Of all newspaper labor disputes by
the Industrial Board and that the
code was not to be modified without
the publishers consent.
Morris Ernst. counsel for the guild.
contends the case will come before
the board sooner or later and that
the question of jurisdiction may as

The executive order setting up the
board specifically provides the board
can hear appeals from Code Board

CITIZENS INDORSE
RECREATION STUDY
Unified Control in Resolution
Favored by Burroughs
Association.

The action OF the National Capital
Park and Planning Commission in
making an investigation Of recrea-
tional facilities here and the possibility
of unifying control of such was in
dorsed by the Burroughs Citizens
Association last night at its meeting
in the Burroughs School. Eighteenth
and Monroe streets northeast.
The resolution of Endorsement was
adopted after Frank T. Gartside.
assistant superintendent of National
Capital Parks, explained the proposed
reorganization of the recreational IA
cilities and outlined the four plans
submitted by L. H. Weir of the
National Recreation Association for
study.
The Parks and Athletic Committee
OF the association was instructed to
study this report 1t contains four
plans drawn up by Weir for control
Of the facilities here, one of which is
to be chosen by the citizens OF the
city for adoption.
Four Plans Outlined.
They are: First. Recreation Com
mittee to be appointed by the District
Commissioners; secondly, committee
to be appointed by the President of the
United States, third. formation OF a
recreational department to be under
control OF the District Commissioners,
and last. formation of a recreation
department, to be controlled by one
official, who will be paid equally from
funds of the National Capital Parks
organization and the Board Of EduCa-
ton.
Adoption Of the latter plan was the
concensus of the association, though
no definite action was taken.
In response to a question, Mr.. Cart
side said a more efficient controlling
head could probably be secured from
outside sources. This. he said. because
to handle the situation successfully
q national figure would be better fitted
for the position.
Oppose Parking Ban.
Opposition to an all-night parking
ban for the District was expressed in
a resolution adopted. 1t also reaf-
frmed the associations former stand
that there was no reason for any
further traffic restrictions in the
Burroughs community.
Another resolution adopted indorsed
the formation of a Boys Club for the
Burroughs section.
There is no crime in the Burroughs
area and therefore nothing could be
accomplished by the formation of a
Vigilance Committee there, it was de-
clared in a report submitted by Paul
Jameson, and approved by the asso-
citation.
The crime report also asserted the
numbers racket had not invaded
that territory
Wilbur S. Finch. secretary Of the
association, declared the police were
responsible for protection of lives and
property, and it was not matter to
be taken into the hands of private
citizens.
The association voted to take no
stand on the proposal to change con-
troll of the present library system until
it had further Investigated the matter.
The Executive Committee was to study
this and report later

ton, presided.
