capped children and ratification Of the
child labor amendment, came before
the meeting. Also Federal problems

gram and industrial codes.
Mrs. George B. Mangold OF San
Francisco, child welfare chairman, re-
ported that 1.-The Presidents economic
security program, with its item OF
special interest to the leagues child

toned in the letter as ultimately be-
ing expected to contribute, but from
many thousands Of others.

"A sweeping inquiry into

Pointing out that the War De-

sentative May demanded that

accorded the privilege of discuss
ing the truth or untruth" con-
tanned in the TWAS statements.
Meanwhile, David Lillenthal,
iva director, denied alleged po-
litical propaganda activities by
the Authority'S officials in testl-
mony before the House Interstate
Commerce Committee.
Answers Charge
Representative Cooper (R) Of
Ohio had charged the IVA had
promoted extensive propaganda
in public schools designed to fur
ther the Governments power
program. David Lilienthal said:
eve are a public agency and
we receive a flood of requests
from teachers and pupils con-
corning our activities"
For this reason, he said, the
iva had hired a writer to pre-
pare an article setting forth it's
detectives. The article was pub
lished by the National Education
Association and $4,000 copies
were distributed.
Mr.. Lilienthal also denied that
the IVA maintained a propa-
ganda agent at Birmingham,
Ala, who, according to Repre-
sentative Cooper, made frequent
radio broadcasts extolling the
Authority.
Lashing back at what he char
acterized as powerful forces try
ing to block storage of national
resources" Mr.. Lilienthal told
the committee a nationwide po-
1itical ring was seeking to frus-
trate the Governments power
development at every turn. He
failed to amplify this charge.

PEONAGE IN THE
COTTON STATES

Virtual peonage, which shows itself
to some extent in the tobacco and sug-
ar plantations, spreads like an evil pois-
on over the whole of the great cotton
industry. Two million families II eight
and a half million persons = are mer-
ely attached to the soil in the South
as tenants or share troopers, or other
wise dependent upon owners and boss
es.
According to the extensive studies of
DR.. Rupert P. Vance, Of the Univer-
sity OF North Carolina, over 20 per
cent of all farms in the South are work
ed by share tenants. In the IS cot
ton states there are 1901, 944 white ten
ant families and 698,839 colored. More
than one third Of the white tenant fam
lies throughout the South are crop
pers !" over half Of the Negro tenants
are in this lowest category.

A delicious recipe which is parti-
cularly tempting as an after
the theatre" dish is Swiss Fondue."
1t is a creation of Ernest Amiet, Elk
ecutive Chef of the Palmer House
in Chicago.
Amiet, president for 8 terms of
the famous Chefs of Cuisine Assn.
of Chicago, is one of the few chefs
in this country to hold the diploma
of the "Societe des Cuisiniers de
Paris" which is the highest honor
that can be bestowed on any chef.
Chef Amiet's recipe for Swiss
Fondue" calls for the use of white
domestic wine as one Of the ingre-
dents, which adds greatly to the
taste and favor. His recipe is as
follows:
Chop IL ounces of Swiss cheese and place
in a sauce pan with "a glass a ounces) of
white wine (dry Sauterne type) and 2 table
spuonsfuls Of worcestershire sauce and a
pinch Of cayenne pepper. Set on range and
mix with wooden spoon until melted. Stir
in sharply ; yolks Of eggs and Immediately
pc into s hot shirred egg dishes with toast
either 4 bottom or on top. OF American
cheese 5 preferred, use only 2 ounces Of
white wine.)

NAZI SOLUTION OF UNEM-
IN THE SAAR

Unemployment in the Saar territory
is increasing alarmingly. Many factor
les have u their working forces in
half. The Reich Commissioner of the
Saar territory, Buerkel, announced re-
Gently that many OF the Saar unemploy-
ed would be transferred to other less
populated areas OF Germany. Since
then 1000 men have been sent to East
Prussia. They will be employed there
as agricultural workers, on the big es-
tates Of the Prussian junkers.
Saar public opinion is openly hostile
to these moves which are rightly con-
sidered as a political device to punish
all those labor elements antagonistic
to the Nazi regime. The Punishment
of these Saarlanders is weakening the
forces OF organized labor now suppre-
ssed by the Hitler regime and acting
as a deterrent to the rebuilding of the
trade unions, (T.I.S).

PARKS SHOW PUNCH
WINS OVER HELENA TEAMS;
TIE LEADERS

Silver Bow Parks and F%reebournes
clawed each other all over Clark's Park
last Monday in their most momentous
tussel OF league play and when it was
all over neither team had gained nor
lost anything except prestige. Parks
who tired of their doormat position
on July 18th when they won their first
game of the current half and later rose
to the heights in a win over East Hell
ena, went down to the grounds TO take
the leaders and it looked like they
would until the pellet got caught in
the gnidscore framework. jimmy
Freebourne hypnotized the apple as
his bat kissed it goodbye in the 9th
inning with Gorsh on and his dads
club trailing by a 9 to s score. Wag-
ner, Park center worker feverishly
to bring the pill out OF hiding but when
he did the score was tied.
In the last inning, the Mighty Mick"
leader in the apple busting division
who incidentally went hitless the first
time since July 9TH, was jerked in
favor OF Hicks who went to the plate
with instructions to bunt. The play
had it worked would have put the win
ming score of third base but Pajnich
was forced on Nettleton's efficient
handling of the sacrifice.
Both starting pitchers were knocked
out of the box, Gillian retiring in the
second with Parks leading 80 and 2
red-caps on the bases. Kenney took
over the mound and allowed but 4 hits
while his mates started getting them
in clusters. Gillian, it seems can't lose
a league game. In his 9 starts he won
9 and Hicks, Mariana and Kenny, in
the order named, pulled the other tus-
sells out OF the fire for him. Berry
man looked like he was on again in
the early innings but the Attorneys
solved his delivery in the 4th and Fire
man Joe got the hook. Nettleton,
the Parks iron-man took over the hill
and aided by darkness pitched his usual
good brand of ball.
The Parks now in a winning streak
would have greatly benefited from the
scheduled Great Falls series but it was
called off to allow the Electrics to
attend and scout the American Legion
State Championship series

not only as a brilliant attorney but
also as n OF the most prominent and

many occasions he has taken the OPP
portunity to defend the rights of work
ers and farmers. Several years ago
Rankin spoke in Sheridan county at
an annual farmers picnic at Brush
Lake.
Miners Union Gives Aid
While in Butte, Miller spoke at a
regular meeting Of the Miners Union,
giving a brief resume of the deporta-
ton case. As a result of this talk a
committee was elected to help in sec
uring the aid Of an attorney and to do
whatever is necessary to defeat the eff
forts Of the immigration authorities.
The Union as well as other Montana
labor organizations had previously sent
protests to the Department of Labor
as we'll as to Senator Wheeler, demand
ing that the charges against the edi-
tor be dropped. These actions are now
being repeated.

mittee appeals to all farmers and
workers organizations to renew their
protests, to write TO the Secretary of
Labor and demand the dropping OF de-
portation proceedings not only against
Miller but against all other working
class fighters as we'll. The committee
asks all Montana organizations also
to write to Senator Wheeler request
ing him to be active in securing the
freedom of Alfred Miller and to defeat
the large number of sedition and de-
portation bills now before Congress.
