Walking Death Combat On 80.
Occupational Diseases !
COrrectiUe LaIcS Sought

WASHINGTON.-Behind the investigation Of
West Virginias silicoss horror is the hope that
the doom of the Gauley Bridge tunnel workers
may be dramatized so effectively as'to safeguard
the lives Of thousands more who face the perils
of occupational disease.
The parade of "walping dead men" who
breathed the fatal silica dust while drilling the
tunnel and who have been summoned before
Congressman Vito MarcantoniCs House labor
subcommittee to tell their story has serious
purpose.
Many other men, still strong and healthy,
are exposed to equal dangers, according TO Mar
cantonio for huge labor surplus in this coun
try forces workmen into jobs which they might
be able to spurn in normal times.
First Marcantonio-who is responsible for
the inquiry-hopes to induce the Department oil
Labor to appoint a board of three to make an
exhaustive study with the aim OF future preVen-
tion.
On many big projects it is the custom OF
construction to hire gangs OF workers lrom an
parts of the country. At Gauey Bridge, VIII
nesSes have charged, from II to IA men-Some-
times with women and children-were housed
in a single shack and charged 25 cents week
apiece for electricity, so cents for shelter, 20
cents for doctor, 25 cents for "hospltai' ana
so on.
Evidence also alleged that when workers
went to the company store to cash pay checks
they were charged 10 per cent for the service
The shack-rouster Che gets the men on the Joo
in the morning) is alleged to have had gam
bling concession-with a heavy cut-from the
company, which, witnesses said, had nm maze
a deputy sheriff.
On such jobs-including government JOBS
hired out to contractors-Inen at the end OF a
week said often to owe more to the COM
pany than they had in their pay envelopes And
at Gauly Bridge, according to testimony, after
the job was over and men began to find they
and their dead comrades were silicoSs victims,
The company burned the shacks in which
many still sought to live.
Little can be done for the survivors from the
1000 men who drilled the mountain and its
silica bed and who, according to many charges,
are victims of disregard for human safety.
If you like, you may send a pair OF shoes,
some clothes, or some food to the Gauley Bridge
Relief Committee at Gauey Bridge, w. Va, and
the recipients will be appropriately grateful, be-
cause they're not in very good shape to rustic

NEGLIGENCE is PUBLIC
ENEMY NUMBER 1.

The other day around luncheon ta-
BILE were grouped banker, preacher,
retail merchant, optometrist, lawyer,
farmer and a federal relief executive.
In a general discussion of current prob
lens, the cause of most public ailments
became a paramount issue. After many
varied views had been voiced, it was the
relief executive who declared that the
one trouble with things as they are is
negligence. 1t was generally accepted as
being the true cause, and IN itself COM
promises an indictment of every person
in every community. Tendencies of young
people to run Wild, usually may be
traced directly to negligence on the
part of parents to properly tram and
set good examples for children. Financial
booms and reacting depressions result
from negligence on the part of everyone
from the so-called common citizen up
to highest government representatives
and the leading industrialists and busl-
ness firms. Traffic accidents are the
price paid for negligence by drivers and
the public for not demanding safer nigh
WAYS. Heavy taxation is created by the
failure of rich and poor alike to realize
that whatever is received from govern
ment must be paid for, whether 1t be
good roads. effective law enforcement
or public works and relief. Crime is
evidence of parental neglect; political
corruption sprouts in "unintereSted'
electorates; vice, gambling, and unat-
tractive cities are made possible by negll-
cence by the people who comprise pub
lie opinion' which is the final and SUI
nreme law of this country The rellet
executive was right. Negligence should
be named Public Enemy Number One.

IL THERE is A GOD.

In the midst of trouble and heart
ache man is quite likely to turn to
God. Sometimes he questions
whether there is a God and in an
guish of heart cries out for a proof
of some kind. To help if we can
someone in deep need We relate the
following incident vouched for by
one of the great religious leaders of
California.
Some years ago a mother and
daughter, alone in the world, lived
in Los Angeles, California. The
daughter gave herself in love and
devotion to the mother as old age
crept on. There came a day when
the frail body could no longer stand
the strain of life and the mother
died The daughter, with her few
friends and pastor laid the precious
remains in a grave in Rosedale Gem
etery. Each day the young woman
spent hours weeping on the new
made mound among the trees, until
it seemed reason must leave her.
One day in the early afternoon she
began to question whether there was
a God of love and in the hurt of her
soul she cried: "Oh, God, if there is
a God, give me some token, some
word that I may know" And as she
prayed there came fluttering out of
the blue sky bit of paper to fall
at her side on the grave of her moth
er. She picked it up finding it to be
a portion of the Gospel of st. John.
Wonderingly she read; Let not your
heart be troubled: Ye believe in God,
believe also in me. In my Fathers
house there are many mansions y
With a cry of relief she hurried TO
her pastors house with the wonder
full news. Her heart was comforted
for God had answered. No longer

DEAR MR.. EDITOR:

DEAR MR.. EDITOR:
The people of our great country are going
through a great crisis especially those OF the
unemployed. With a most wonderful display OF
saneness and intellectually, they the unem-
ployed most assuredly deserve credit for their
attitude to abide by all that is being given or
trying to be done by our country to provide
employment for our needy unemployed Ameri-
cans.
The President has done his utmost to stem
the tide of depression, spending many billions of
dollars to the depressed and to facilitate
better living Many billions of dollars were
loaned to foreign nations during the World War
and all but one of these nations have refused to
make those payments in return for our good
faith Aur feelings toward those same belligerent
nations are not in any sense good feelings, yet
this country is handing out millions of dollars
to foreigners in this country when we Americans
eigners when our unemployed are in great need?
Why should this country be a haven for
such people? One of the nations adjoining ours
is well represented in this country with influx
of non Americans that is astounding and receiv-
ing relief. Many of our ranch owners are to
blame for hiring these people who are being given
preference over Americans. urely something must
be wrong somewhere. The rancher wants his
products sold, then why not give us an oppor-
tunity to buy them. Our authorities should stop
providing fer such foreigners when our people
need aid so badly. Let US hope that the employ
ers of foreigners will show their true spirit of
Americanism and employ none other than Amer
leans.

Ed Sullivan seems the only col

those Drawing the footlights. He
has played several return engage
ments at one of the. largest Broad
way motion picture houses and last
time hung up a record matching
that of Jack Dempsey in the flush
of his championship, an all-time
high for the house. He has the
dazzling facility of Irish talk but
without flipancy and perhaps in
that quality lies much of his ap-
peal. There is a definite hardness
among audiences these days to-
ward that arrogant assumption by
actors they are the last word.
Genius no longer has to declare it

every endeavor.
