WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. l.
The assembled delegates to the Ma
tional Congress for Unemployment
Insurance yesterday heard the re-
ports by the various sub-sessions
which had met to decide upon policy
in the various trade union, unem-
ployed, women, veteran and other
groups
Max Bedacht, who opened the re-
ports, declared that the fraternal
groups here had declared their COM
plete unanimity with the proceed
ings and reports, and had pledged
their untiring efforts to mobilize all
of the 100000 members of the
fraternal organizations in the
United States in support of the
Workers Unemployment. Old Age
and Social Insurance Act, H. r.
1927 which was introduced into
Congress last Friday
Those in the fraternal movement
seek some sort of social security"
Bedacht declared. But they fully
understand that no system which is
on an actuarial basis can take care
Of the masses. We know that the
workers cannot pay and that the
bosses will not pay. 1t Is a problem
not of an actuary. but problem OF
people, of society, of government
When the United States went to
war they did not start out on an
actuarial basis by collecting pennies
they decided upon the number of
guns, of pounds of powder and poi
son gas. of tons Of vessels of war
and they found the means to pay.
Today the immediate problem is of
saving lives.
THE question is also raised of
constitutionalitv." Bedacht contin-
ued. The guiding principle must
be to supply the needs of the
masses. If such thing is unconsti-
tutional, we must change the Con-
stitution that stands in the way"
O'Donnell Gets Ovation
The assembled delegates ap-
plauded vigorously when Bill
O'Donnell, who was released from
prison in New Jersey, where ne was
held for his participation in the
farm workers strike at Bridgeton
last summer, spoke.
- want to state that only within
the last seven months did come
to realize after having been a SOL
dier and state trooper. that I
have become class conscious at the
age of forty-seven" He stated that
his release from a six-month SEN
tence was only due to the tremen-
dous mass pressure raised in his be-
half.
And as each new speaker took the
stand to report, another drama in
the struggles of the employed and
unemployed was unfolded. Dirk

reported in a slow and measured
tone. He had been sentenced for his
activities in behalf of the unem-
ployed during the recent historic
West Coast Marine Strike. He ap-
pealed to the assembled delegates to

which his delegation would intro
duce against criminal syndicalism.

A New Zinnia
CentrnL Press Garden EIpert


JUST AS a woman wants a dress
of the newest style each spring, so
we gardeners want the newest
flowers each year. Our pocketbooks
cannot always include all the new
varieties of shrub and flower, but
even IL we only try one or two new
varieties, we have satisfied feeling,
and we anziously wait the new flower
with anticipation and wonder.
The new zinnia. Fantasy, is a
most fascinating zinnia, one which
received the Award of Merit" for
1895. This new and striking zinnia
is most unusual as its flowers appear
shaggy and graceful. 1t is very
different from our stiff and formal
zinnia to which we have grown so
accustomed. The flowers OF Fantasy
are of medium size, and lend them
selves gracefully to flower arrange
ments. They come in bright shades
of red. yellow and orange, and also
in very delicate shades Of pink and
| yellow.
This new zinnia will look well IN

poison is named. Blood poison is,
strictly speaking, lymph poison. We
have been speaking this week of the
Emphatic system, that second cir
cuation--a circulation which keeps
a layer Of fluid everywhere in con-
tact with the body cells. Whenever
there is a break in the skin. and
germs are present to make an en-

lymph.
The lymph is a highly specialized
fluid. specialized for just that very

the condition known as blood poi

The hand is naturally the part of
the body most often infected in this
way. The hand is richly supplied
with lymph vessels. When blpd

formal functions, by the smartest
Parisiennes. over in that mecca of

a thin seam painted on the back of
each of her legs, in order to simulate

TO the stocking seams.
Most women seem to think that
legs can be disregarded during the
winter, because it is mostly In sum-
mer that they are revealed. But
those new slit skirts so popular this
season do plenty of leg revealing, too.
And therefore, legs demand a great
deal of care and attention during the
winter months. Because of the filmy
stockings we women wear during
this rigorous season, most legs, when
neglected, become chapped and ugly.
And legs that are constantly red and
chapped look anything but attractive
in sheer hose, or when displayed in
the nude at formal affairs.
When your legs get chapped, OF
the skin roughened and red from ex-
posure to cold and wind. make 1t a
practice to use a rich nourishing
cream or the infallible warmed olive
oil on your legs, in order TO soften
the skin. Rub the chosen lubricant
well into the skin, and then wipe off
any excess that may remain. OF
course, you can't treat the legs with
oil or cream just prior to gowning

would soil your stockings. Of course.
But do it at night. always. before

THE HOUSE OF PAIN

THE HOUSE OF PAIN
Unto the Prison House of Pain
none willingly repair
The bravest who an entrance
gain
Reluctant linger there
For Pleasure, passing by that door,
stays not to cheer the sight,
And Sympathy but muffles sound
and banishes the light.
Yet in the Prison House of Pain
things full of beauty blow
Like Christmas roses, which at
tain
Perfection mid the snow
Love entering, in his mild warmth
the darkest shadows melt.
And often, where the hush is deep,
the watt of wings is felt.
All, me- the Prison House of Pain
what lessons there are
bought
Lessons of a sublimer strain
Than any elsewhere taught;
Amid its loneliness and gloom,
grave meanings grow more
clear,
For to no earthly dwelling-place
seems God so strangely

traced bv the fine little red lines
running from the site of injury up
the arm. These red lines are the
lymph vessels made visible through
the skin by the infiammatory reac-
ton. The lymph nodes above the
elbow and in the armpit catch as
many of the invading germs as pos
slble. ard destroy them. This &C
tlyity is evidenced by the fact that
the nodes swell up themselves in the
process. and often break down and
have TO be lanced.
In treating this type of blood poi
soning. the object of the surgeon is
to limit the spread of the infection
and increase the body's powers of
resistance. In doing so. he makes
every effort TO keep the hand and
arm from being moved. The lymph
is not circulated by the heart. but is
driven slowly by the movements of
muscles. If the muscles of the hand
and arm are moved in the presence
of an infection. the infected lymph
moves on TO uninfected areas. So
the surgeon puts splint on the arm.
He also applies thick hot COM

In large school of one or two
thousand children the forgery is not
readily detected. and most home.
room teachers are crowded with so
many clerical details that they are
not very likely to be discerning of
such matters.
1t seems to me that parents who
really care. should wisely do little
checking, since the child's report
card usually records the number OF
absences. Although any child might
be tempted to practice such forgery.
it is pretty strong indication that
the parent-child relationships IN
such instances are at low ebb.
If this apparent epidemic OF
forgery Is to be halted, II may be
necessary for the school to mail
