An example is the case of the Huasteca Standard Oil of New Jersey) Petroleum Company in Vera Cruz, where the workers have tied up refinery operations and have demanded expulsion of com .pany officials as undesirable for eigners. This will be followed by more and more strikes"
 In the Huasteca case, the Fed eral Labor Board has handed down one of the most radical and far reaching decisions in Mexican his- tory. Without judging validity of the strike or merits of the de- mands, the board ordered the Huasteca to pay the strikers. full wages. total of nearly 300,000 pesos at the time the decision was made.
 If taken as a precedent, the de- cisioh means that employees can walk out at any time, with or with out Justification, and be sure of getting full pay while on strike.

 FESTIVAL MARCH
Local Man Writes Song for Tercentenary Concert in June

That the Tercentenary has in- spired some excellent musical con- positions was revealed today by
 James S. Stevens, chairman of the
 music committee of the Connecti- cut Tercentenary commission in announcing that ten contributions of Connecticut Tercentenary music had been made to the commission. MT Stevens whose committee is preparing for the choral concert in the Yale Bowl, New Haven, at 6 p. m., DIST, on Saturday, June was especially enthusiastic over a
 new military march for bands, en- titled Connecticut March. the work of Allie Wrubel of Middle town. MT Wrubel, who has done a great deal of musical composition. is now doing such work in Cali fornia for the movies.
 'cThe Connecticut March is a good composition, written by a man who thoroughly understands band music" Mrs Stevens said, af- ter attending a hearsal of the Foot Guard band at Hartford at which the new march was played. Tt has a good tune, and good movement, set smoothly to the band, which performed the march on first read ing, perfectly and smoothly. The movement is flowing and likable. and MT Wrubel incorporated in it a section in somewhat modernistic style. think every band in Con- necticut should have copy of this march, which is published by M. Witmark & Sons, of New York;"
 Andrew Neuss of Waterbury has written a Connecticut song and a "Centennial Festival March" in- cluding the song.
 Frank I. Healy of Saybrook sent in an easy, popular and tuneful song entitled "On> Connecticut River Shore"
 Elizabeth Hayward Gardiner submitted song entitled Back to New England", published by Wor- ley Go of Boston.
 Among the manuscript numbers sent in were a march entitled Ter centenary March" by Harry Carter of West Hartford; one entitled "Connecticut Tercentenary March by Harry Van Ausdall, and one en- titled "Tercentenary March" by Jacques Conrad; and Mrs Frank Edward Morris of New London has a song in manuscript entitled From the Hills of Connecticut"

years has been helping cities all over the country establish play grounds and recreational centers where older people can learn use- full and absorbing hobbies, where young people can meet one an- other under happy auspices, where life maens joy and not the dejec- tion of the street corner" the let ter states.
 The National Recreation Asso. citation was founded in 1906 at a meeting held in the White House Washington, D. C., on the invita- tion of President Theodore Itoose- welt. Mrs Thomas A. Edison, pr John H. Finley of the New York Times, John G. Winant, former governor of New Hampshire, Rob- ert Garrett of Baltimore, and JO- seph Lee of Boston are among the members of the association's board of directors. The organization maintains number of representa-. tives who give field service to communities throughout the Uni ted States. It conducts numerous city and rural institutes for the instruction of volunteers. A free correspondence service on ques- tions of. music, drama, and other subjects is maintained at it's na- tional headquarters, S15 Fourth avenue, New York city.
 The growth in the demand for recreation since the depression has brought 40 percent more requests for advice and suggestions to this bureau in 1894 than 1933-more requests than during any previous year in the history of the National Association. Five thousand, nine hundred and twenty-two different localities in every state in the Union wrote in for help last year 800 more localities than asked for national service in 1883. The dis trict field workers of the National Association gave personal service last year to 3S6 different cities. The field secretary for women's and girls activities gave service in S4 cities in 21 states and conducted training courses for 3,9S6 individ- uals in S2 communities.
