CHICAGO DOCTOR
HEADS MEDICS

NEW ORLEANS amp = DR..
Roscoe Giles of Chicago was elect
ed president of the National Medi-
cal Association at its convention
here last week.
On Thursday evening, delegates
to the convention were addressed
by Dr.. friedrich Patterson, recent
ly-elected President of Tuskegee
Institute, who said in part
II believe the time has come
when our professional groups must
taxi a unitedly active interest in
the educational policies and econ
nomic opportunities of Negroes.
The success of professional groups
is tied inseparably to the Negroes
economy as a whole. Our economic
problems are becoming more and
more acute. These problems IN
fortunately have been accumulated
rather than diminished during the
period Of reconstruction through
the New Deal. It is probable, es-
pecially here in the South. that
further complications will arise
through the increased production
of cotton by other nations.
School teachers are finding a
direct correlation between their sa-
laries, the length of school term,
and the price of cotton. A SINH
lar correlation doubtless exists in
medical collections. Professional
people should no longer fold them
selves complacently or uncons-
ciously participate in vicious pro-
gram of vocational guidance by re-
fusing to assign due Importance
to economic pursuits capable of
offering economic stability to the
masses.

way the native tide would turn in
view of the impending Italian in
vasion.
The soldiers were said to have
crossed the borders openly pro
claiming their allegiance to the
emperor and announcing their rea-
diness to die for him.
Many diplomats here have pre-
dicted such difficulties for Italy,
pointing out that although the Dor
der lands of Ethiopia are control
led by the Italians, French and
British, an Ethiopian, regardless of
which flag he is under remains 3
subject of his emperor.
Meantime, reports that italian
nationals were evacuating Adds
Ababa were declared groundless.
Two or three have left the capital
along with the Creeks and TIindus
but it was emphasized there is no
evacuation, especially of natives.
The populace of Adds Ababa
continued serene today but full of
curiosity as to approaching events.
The Ethiopian army continued
drilling and 100 skilled motor driv-
ers were dispatched to Ogaden
province to man American motor
trucks to be used if Italy attacks.
The trucks were acquired last
spring when the Italian crisis first
became acute.

that up to January 20, 500 each had
been paid to more than 1,531 ,943 corn

No Cigarette Code;
Strike May Develop

By A. F. of L. News Service.
Washington.-0r Organized labor has
entered definite protests against fur
ther delay in adopting suitable code
for the cigarette industry, which has
long been fought by the big four"
While strike rumors have been going
the rounds, no action in this respect
has been determined upon.
l. M. Ornburn, president of the Ci-
gar Makers International Union and
chairman of the Allied Tobacco Trades
Council, stated: "We are not yet de-
termined that strike would be ad-
visable. although it is possible"
Labor insists that S. Clay Williams,
NRA chairman and high official of
big non-union tobacco and cigarette
firm, refrain from "using any infiu-
ence in code affairs" until satisfac-
tory code for the cigarette industry
has been approved. After 10 months
of NRA, the chairman's own industry
is still without a code!

Low NEEDLE
TRADES WAGES
In Puerto Rico Undermine
American Pay Standards

Washington, D. C. GLNS)-Puerto
Rico women seamstresses are work
ing on garments which are to be sold
in the New York and other United
States markets, at piece-work rates
which net the workers from one cent,
two cents and three cents an hour, up
to maximum of 20 cents day. This
is revealed in report by the Women's
Bureau, United States Department of
Labor.
A gown that costs the contractors
In Puerto Rico 35 cents dozen is sold
in New York at wholesale for Sits a
dozen, and retails at three for ST..
Three-fourths of the women working
on these gowns received less than one
cent an hour for their work.
Most of this work is done in the
homes of the people which are merely
thatched huts, located largely in ru-
raj communities or in some cases in
narrow trails in the mountain dis
tricts, to be reached only on foot or
by horseback. The only way to put
floor under United States wages and
standard of living for this kind Of
work is to change the conditions of
similar workers in Puerto Rico and
similar territory. A small beginning
has now been made at this in the
opening up of factory buildings in
community centers with modern fa-
cilities and appointments, where the
processes and rates of pay can be kept
track of. The pay is better, more
work can be done for better wages,
and the women are more content to do
the work here than in their homes, the
report says.
Miss Caroline Manning, the in
dustrial expert who made the
study during the winter of 1888
81, stresses not only the disas-
trous results of the low wages on
the estimated $4,000 home work
ers on the island but the under
miring effects on the competing
needle trades Of the mainland of
the United States.
The articles made by Puerto Rican
home workers comprise chiefly silk

many types; cotton night gowns; in
fants' dresses fagoted, hemstitched,
and embroidered; and scalloped and
ornately embroidered pillow cases.
Haphazard methods characterize
the whole system of home work in
Puerto Rico, the report shows. Many
employers on the island are contrac-
tors for firms on the mainland, which
feel no responsibility for the workers
and who try to get the Puerto Rican
production done as cheaply as possible.
New York firms insist on contracts
with constantly lower rates even
though the patterns are more ornate"
