Dear Sirs:
The recent fire in your establish

afraid we would not be able to
deal with you for many months.
Your magnificent effort to re-
open your lovely shop with such
speed so as not to disappoint us
has been grand. Even though
your assistants are working un.
der the handicap of burnt odors,
smoked merchandise and re-
building-they are giving us SER

in jewelry, silver and gifts are
surely welcome just now when
our purses are a bit flat. With
hopes that you will soon be en-.

ASC0AL BOARD
CHAIRMAN

HYDE PARK, N. Y, Sept. ii
G.N.S0-Charles F. Hosford, jr.,
Of Pittsburgh, was regarded as a
likely choice for chairman of the
new coal commission following a
Hyde Park visit today by SEN
ator Joseph Guffey CD of Penn
Sylvania, author Of the new coal
act.
Senator Guffey recommended
only Hosford, although he turned
over to President Roosevelt some
names that had been submitted
to him for appointment to both
the commission and the coal labor
board. There will be five members
on the former and three on the
latter.
Mr.. Hosford, graduate of
Princeton and Harvard Law
Schools, built the first mechan-
lied coal business in this country
and ran it until 1881. Since
then, he has been connected with
the Coal Control Association of
Pennsylvania.
Senator Guffey said he had the
unanimous Endorsement of all the
coal operators and was acceptable
to the workers.
With Guffey today was David
L. Lawrence, Democratic State
chairman for Pennsylvania. They
promised the President they would
carry Pennsylvania for him next
year.

KANSAS JOBLESS
Penalized For Refusing Tn
fair Work

Topeka, Kansas (AFLNS) The To-
peka Federation Of Labor is opposing
vigorously the action of Kansas Emer-
gency relief committee officials in pen
alizing workers on relief rolls for re-
fusing jobs offered by ehiseling con-
tractors on private construction work.
The question arose when an unem-
ployed union plasterer residing IN
Baldwin was sent to Topeka to work
on the national reserve building, for
the construction of which an anti
union employer has the contract.
When the plasterer found out the
work conditions on the building he quit
the job. The relief committee there
upon removed him from the registra-
tion list of unemployed workers. Or
ganized labor regarded this action as
an attempt to force unemployed union
members to break their obligations to
their organization and discredit their
union affiliation. They appealed the
relief committees decision.

Concern

Easton, Pa. (AFLNS)- Magistrate

in the county jail or $27.50 fine on
five union pickets whom he found
guilty Of creating a nuisance when
they picketed the Mohican Company,
large chain market here.
After the decision of the United
States Supreme Court, declaring the
NRA unconstitutional abolished the
wages and hours standards of the fair
practice codes, organized labor here
determined to picket every employer
who undertook to use the decision as
an excuse for cutting wages and
lengthening hours.
In pursuit of this policy union pick
cts marched back and forth in front
of the Mohican Company's store
carrying placards urging consumers
not to patronize the place because It
had imposed longer hours upon its
employees Police arrested five Of the
pickets whom Magistrate Chidsey
victimized. The unions appealed the
decision.

conaressmen "under Age

There are five known cases where
congressmen--three senators and two
Representatives seated although
slightly under age. Henry Clay, of Ken.
tucky, was seated in the senate in 1906
at the age Of twenty-nine years seven
months; Armistead T. Mason, Of Vir-
ginia, in 1919 at the age of twenty
eight years Ave months; and John 81.
Eaton, of Tennessee, In 1913 at the age
OF twenty eight years four months Ap-
parently no question was raised con
csrning their eligibility, Of which the
senate itself Is the sole Judge. William
G. G. Olairborne, of Tennessee, was
seated In the house In 1897 before he
had reached the prescribed age OF
twenty five. but it seems that no ques
tion was raised In this case. John Y
Brown, Of Kentucky. was elected fol
the term OF 1859-61, but did not take
his seat In the house until after his

Forest Oil Co. Lengthens
Hours and Slashes Wages

Bradford, Pa. (AFLNs) Taking
advantage of the decision Of the
United States Supreme Court declar
ing the national industrial recovery
act unconstitutional and thereby
abolishing fair practice codes, the
Forest Oil Company here issued a
decree imposing wholesale lay offs,
drastic wage cuts and the six-day week
upon its employees.
Several small Bradford employers
scrapped the NRA wage and hour
schedules Immediately following the
decree of the supreme court, but the
Forest concern permitted several
weeks to elapse before joining the
offensive against decent wages and
hours. The apparent alibi for the
slashing Of labor standards was the
recent drop in the price Of crude oil.

Mass. Judge Fines Clothing
Workers for Picketing Plant

Worcester, Mass. (AFLNS)-Wor-

Local ia, and Rev. Jeffery Camp
bell, recently ordained minister, for
picketing the plant of the New Eng
land Manufacturing Company whose
pressers are on strike against intol-
cradle working conditions in the
plant.
The pickets were doing nothing
more than walking back and forth in
front of the plant asking employees
of departments not affected by the
strike to attend meeting to be held
in the evening.
The police charged the pickets with
"obstructing the sidewalk" Tho
judge sustained the charge and i'm
