BERKELEY, Calf, February 23.-
Sometimes August Vollmer, scientific
criminologist and former chief Of
police here. makes mistake.
Shortly before Charles Stevens was
paroled from San Quentin last April
% after serving three years for rob-
berry in Imperial County, Vollmer was
visiting the Office of the captain OF
the prison yard, in which Stevens was
working as clerk.
80 you're the famous criminolo-
gist," Stevens said to him genially
"They tell me you can peg q man
as soon as you see him."
Vollmer looked the man over.
81 think you're from one of the
mountain States, probably Colorado,
he began.
That's pretty good" said Stevens
I'm from Wyoming"
Il think you served in the Navy
That's not bad, either" the con-
vict commented. II did hitch in
the Marine Corps"

 DanieIsen Talks
 Danielsen, following the Union Secretary on the radio by more than an hour, first launched into a discussion of various events lead ing up to today's mine employee vote. He remined his audience that company officials did not believe the union represented the majority of the employed men, and there fore refused to arbitrate with the union. Danielsen also asserted that the union had refused to hold direct strike vote.
 '.The union is afraid of today's vote, which we petitioned the City Council to sponsor, because tht union leaders are afraid that the majority of union men is opposed to the methods employed by tht Union Executive Committee" tht Workers Benefit Committee mem. Der said. x This is not an effort to break the union or the strike" Daniel sen continued Get it in youi heads that the ultimate results oi our efforts will get us back tc work in the near future.
 We agree with the Union Sec retary, MT. Heard, that organized labor is here to stay, but the pres ent union here cannot be compared to the model union he portrays He said rank and file should control the policies of the union. Yet in the present dispute, a rank and file strike vote is refused" Claim Union Tardy Danielsen then reminded his list eners that the first attempt to- wards a settlement was not made by the union until Danieisen', group had induced the City Coun- ell to hold today's non- partisan vote of the employees. Then, Dan- ielsen said the union decided to telegraph for Federal mediator
 Danielsen concluded his talk with strong plea for large turnout in today's balloting, He said that If today's vote will show wha, the majority of employees want then the Federal mediator really will have something to go on.p
 Voting at City Hall started at S o'clock this morning. The polls are not to be closed until T o'clock tonight.

Starving Farm Animals Win
$500, 900 Food Appropriation

St. Paul qLNs)-Needy farmers
from western Minnesota brought
three starving, hollow-eyed animals
a horse, COW and pig-to the state
capitol on February 27 to show legis-
lators that they must have food imme-
diately.
The farmers backed their truck up
against the plaza of the capitol. Leg
islators entering the building couldn't
help but see the mute appeal.
Within few hours after the farm
ers had brought the animals to the
steps Of the statehouse to emphasize
the seriousness Of their plight, a bill
providing immediate appropriation Of
$500,000 for feed was introduced in
the senate and passed by unanimous
vote

against economic injustice, your inn
prisonment of men and women in your
detention camps in Georgia is evil
dence of your bias in favor of the mill
owners and powerful financial inter
ests.'
To which Talmadge replied with a
TRADE calling labor leaders "loafers
and buffers"
"They don't know what labor is"
he bawled. ''They got hard heads and
weak muscles"
u. S. Money Aids Georgia Idle
Talmadge berates the administra-
tion in Washington; but federal
money is taking care of 100000 peo-
pie on relief in Georgia. From March,
1898, to the end Of 1884, the federal
government put about $35,000,000 into
the state. And, under the so-called
leadership of Talmadge, the state of
Georgia didn't contribute a plugged
nickel The city of Atlanta is doing
what it can; but not the state under
Talmadge
At least, if this bill in congress
goes through-and it will be pushed
vigorously, Talmadge still may sponge
on Washington for relief; but if he
wants to break any more strikes, he
will have to look elsewhere for uni
forms, rifles, munitions and the rest.

PUPPET LABOR ORGANIZATION
SUCCEEDS IN BLOCKING CODE
Betrays Workers Interests by Agreeing to Reduction In
Pay and Increase in Hours Over Proposal of Telegraph
Companies-Postal Stands Firm for 40 Hours With
45 Hours Pay.

Washington, D. C. (ILNS)-T The
company union Of the Western Union
Telegraph Company has succeeded in
blocking the telegraph communica-
tions code by advocating cut in
wages and an increase in hours over
that proposed by the telegraph COM
panies
On January 81, after nearly two
years of stalling, the Western Union
and Postal finally agreed to submit
revised code. 1t provided for 40
hour week with approximately As
hours pay Included in the proposal
We're many other clauses not at all
acceptable to labor, as represented by
the Commercial Telegraphers' Union
of North America, but on the whole
the code was long step forward.
On February 16 the Western Union
announced that its company union,
the Association of Western Union
Employees, had agreed to a 43 ?hour
week with 43 hours pay, and, there
fore, the Western Union was now pro-
posing those amendments to the first
proposal Postal is understood to
have refused to join with this back
ward step, and is standing pat on 40
hours with 45 hours pay, although
Postal is the weakest of the two COM
panies financially.
