Jr., chairman of the House Com
mittee on Labor, supports the Work
ers' Unemployment and Social In
surance Bill, and has pledged to

The pledge to support the Work
ers' Bill is contained in letter of
Connery to Benjamin Waite, Of the
Lynn Sponsoring Committee for

The endorsement of HR. 1927 by

ly significant in view of the fact
that Connery is the chairman of the
Comnl-SSeee to which the Bill has
been referred.
The Committee on Labor has the
power to recommend the Bill out
cf Committee and to the floor of
the House Therefore, Connery's
pledge Of support means, if carried
out, a probability that the Labor
C~r'n. TIC would report the Bill
to the House.
Il will be glad to Support this Bill
in Committee and on the floor of
the House" says Connery's letter,
which is reproduced on this page.

DiSnJayad Tn Art Gallery


From the art section of Sundays
Columbus Dispatch, is taken the
following:
Grand Central Art Galleries in
New York City, is holding one
man display of the work of How
ard Chandler Christy, one of the
we'll known portrait painters in the
United States. He belongs to that
class of fashionable painters who,
like Boldini and Sargent, mastered
the slashy blavura technique SO
popular in the early part of the CEN
tury among the unknowing. Christy
achieved fame for his artistic ac-
tivities as a graphic illustrator for
"Leslie's Weekly" and "Scribner's"
in Cuba during the Spanlsh-Ameri-
can war
Since that time he has done all
sorts of work-posters, illustrations
for magazines, newspapers and
books, and magazine covers. The
"Christy" girl We'd for popularity
with the "Gibson" girl. During the
last few years he has turned to
portraiture, doing commissions for
many important personages. In
connection with the Will Rogers
memorial he donated the poster
now identified with that movement.
or local interest is the fact that Mr.
Christy is an Ohio man, born in
Morgan county, and still retaining
his old studio near GAINESVILLE. The
Southern hotel has on display in
the lobby one Of his paintings,
"YOuth Morning" an excellent eX-
ample of his bold brush work. The
painting is owned by Mr.. Trent d.
