 VITANIIN RATION.

In the American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology (May. 1885, 29, 759-65) Dr. Llewellyn R. Lewis of the Los Angeles county medical association presents in di- gestible form an excellent view of the scientific and practical know ledge of the relation of the vit- amins to obstetrics. Every physt- elan who advises or attends con- finement cases should read this in- formative article. Here can quote only bits which I think may be of help for prospective mothers.

The greatest mistake women make when; selecting cos metics occurs when they select a lipstick to harmonize witht rouge. This, of course, is because they insist upon buying lipstick which, when held in the hand, matches perfectly the shade of rouge, also in the hand.
 It stands to reason that rouge and lipstick which are the same color when placed side by side will not match once you have put the rouge over comparatively thick, quite white skin on the cheeks and the Hpstick over extremely thin, much more colorful skin, on the lips.
 Naturally, this brings up the fine old rule-always try a cos- metic on your face before you buy. The ideal system Is to remove ev- cry trace of old makeup, pinch the cheeks until natural color shows, then get a rouge that matches the spots of high color. Try on several shades of lipstick until you find one that makes your lips the identical shade of the freshly rouged cheeks. The same rule holds in regard to face powder. No person can look at row of jars of powder and be able to tell you which shade is right. You simply must put on one after an- other to find tone which har- monizes so perfectly with your skin tone that, once you have pressed 1t on and brushed 1t off it will be impossible to tell that there is powder on your skin. Re- member always that to be well powdered you shouldn't look pow dered at all. :. If you prefer dry rouge to creamy varieties Gin the summer time, a good many dol, apply il after powder. This way, you run less chance of making streaks and a more natural effect is gained.

Fired for

ABERDEEN, Wash, March 7
1t is reported on good authority
that eight men employed in the
engine room at the Bay City Lum-
Der Co., in Aberdeen, have been
discharged because they Joined
the Loggers and Sawmill Work
ers Union of the AFL. These men
have been employed in this mill
a long time, some of them many
years. Most of the men fired were
firemen. 1t is not known whether
the engineers were fired also.
Another fireman is reported to
have been fired recently from the
Anderson and Middleton Lumber
Co. Whether this dismissal was
due to the same reason as the
Bay City Lumber mill is not
known.
Workers in the other depart
ments of the different mills, in
Guiding the Bay City and Ander-
son & Middleton, have been join
ing the union of the AFL by the
hundreds, but there are no re-
ports of any discharges in the
other departments of these mills.
When more facts are obtained
concerning these dismissals, the
report will be sent to the Voice

dodge their duty. The struggle
for and the winning of such de-
mands will prove to the masses
that it is their party.
The Communist Party will par
ticipate in such a movement be-
cause it wants the leftward NOV
ing workers not yet convinced of
the Communist program to get
into a political party which rep
resents their demands as the
workers know them. 1t is conf
dent that in the struggle the
workers will learn by experience
that the Communist program is
one they will ultimately have to
embrace.
The Communist Party will
help such a party by continually
bringing up the question to local
unions and other mass organiza-
tions, and by helping to organize
it. They will place the candidates
of such a party on their ticket

Everett lila Wins
Blue Funnel Line
Gang SkirmiSh
By L. Krattley
Official lila Correspondent

EVERETT, Wash, March 7
The lOngshoremen in the port of
Everett demonstrated again that
whenever the time arrives, they
are ready to fight for lettering
of their working conditions, and
also protect what they have at
the present time.
The Blue Funnel liner Tyndar-
us required five gangs to load
cargo. The gangs are picked from
the alphabetical lists. When the
men arrived aboard, the foreman,
whose reputation during the
strike is shady, began to change
the gangs, putting what he
thought the best gang in the
matches where the most cargo was
to be loaded.
The longshoremen would not
allow this change and refused to
work. They left the ship in a
body, returning to the LILA hall.
Some of the officials went down
to the ship and interviewed the
boss. The boss threatened to pull
the ship away from Everett. One
of the spokesman replied, THAT
would be a godsend," calling the
boss bluff
When the boss saw that the
men meant action, he told the
officials that if the men return
ed to work that they could go to
the hatch for which they were
picked, but he would like to shift
the hatchtenders. The m n
agreed to this with the consent of
the hatchtenders.
Everett longshOremen, keep up
the militant fight that was dem
onstrated at this time and no
boss can defeat us and take away
any of our rights.

answered that he was very much
offended because he had been
called a capitalist judge in front

Nicman farm foreclosure case was
being tried, and by Lydia Som

He claimed that no other man
was so willing to help a down and

He advocated a wage scale Of
$40 and $50 per month for young
boys.
He refused to give a single cent

1.-The workers of Kittitas coun-
ty felt that their hunger march
was a success when the threat
ened relief cuts were withdrawn,
many getting more than the or

ting blankets, sheets and fuel.
About 700 were in the march
with 1000 meeting at the court
house. The elected committee of
Is was at first not admitted, the
authorities saying that they
would only see a committee OF
three. When the committee re-
fused to bulge, all Is were ad-
mitted.
A call was issued for a county
conference on the workers bills,

Insanity Frame-Up
To Crack MilitanCy

PORTLAND, March Trying
in every way to break down the
militancy of the mass organiza-
lions in the Albina neighbOr-
hood, the relief set-up is increas-
ing its campaign to railroad act
i've workers to the insane asy-
lum.
First, there was the case of
Mrs. Mary Hickman, committed
as being violently insane and
proved by the doctor at the hos
pital as having no signs of in
sanity, only a lack of education.
Second, there was the case of
Helgerson, who was railroaded
to Pendleton, the other state in
stitution, and third, that of Mrs.
Shank, a mother of young child
rem, who was very active for the
past few months on grievance
cases. Mrs. Shank took part in
the protest of all the preceding
cases and was on the committee
that went to Salem and had
Mrs. Hickman released. The ex-
amining doctors pronounced her
condition to be "peronia."
The only witnesses against her
were the head of the relief sta
ton in Albina and her visitor.
The only witness on her behalf
was a neighbor, VIM. Linden,
who happened to go to her
home as the arresting officers
were there. She was arrested at
900 a. m, her trial began at 1890
a. M, and she was on her way
to Salem at 200 p. m.
There is no other neighbor-
hood that has been so concen.
trated on and it has come to such
point that belonging to the
Civic Emergency Federation or
the International Labor Defense
or even living in the neighbor-
hood, seems to have become valid
reason for being picked up and
committed to the insane asylum.

CONTINUE
FIGHT ON
lib 1928!

OLYMPIA, Wash, March 7
The House committee on Insur-
ance continues to sit on the
Workers Bill, HB 12S, ignoring
the protest that is arising
throughout the state form dis
illusioned workers who have
fought the bill and now find
it railroaded into reactiOnary
committee where it did not right
fully belong.
Fear of a comparison with
parts of the administration bill,
lib 1853, which does not provide
adequately for the worker and
which is under the now proved
corrupt present welfare relief adj
ministration of Governor Martin,
is prompting the committee to
fight to keep the bill safely
dead.
However, the workers aroused
from the sensational disclosure
of graft and theft in relief admin
istration exposed in the Voice of
Action today, may force the bill
onto the floor by sufficient mass
protest.
Representative J. B. Smith of
King, expresses complete will
ingness to help maneuver the
bill out of the Insurance commit
tee into the Unemployment In
surance committee where it right
fully belongs. Representative
Smith said, "The value of being
able to make a cross section COM
parison between the various pro-
posed Unemployment Insurance
measures is lost when the bills
are sent unfairly to different
committees. Bills do not meet
with fair consideration on this
basis"

and unorganized laborers in the
mills struggled jointly, many con-
cesisons were won from the oper-
ators.
For Rank and File Control
This sentiment for unity still
exists. Every member of the MI
WI who is shingle mill worker,
must take advantage of this i'm
mediately, taking out member
ship in the International Single
Weavers Union and fighting for
rank and file control. Every I'M
organized shingle mill worker
must join and help in this fight
too.
The misleaders of the ISWU is
working class organization can
be easily Ousted by strong rank
and file groups, organized for the
purpose of electing militant and
sincere WOrkesr into the leader
ship. Workers are putting up a
militant struggle for the demands
of all the workers employed in
the shingle industry.
The Vancouver, b. c., local has
shown the way by BUSTING their
fake leaders, replacing them with
militant workers that had prov
ed their mettle by constant fight
ing for the interests of the shingle
mill workers.
Make this step now. Make this
union signify the past fighting
tradition by organizing for high
er wages and better working con-
ditions.
