sis for their conclusions. And they
further try to mislead the readers
by emitting to mention that very
fundamental low of economics:
Supply and demand. With increas-
ing demand, prices go up. Only
because there is more money in
circulation can the prices be paid.
Men are making more money, else
they would not be buying new
cars, new homes, new clothes and
other new accessories. Rising re-
tail prices cannot be kept down,
when wages are going up. 1t isn't
in the cards.

About thirty-five years ago l
was working on a sheep ranch.
The sheep were dying like flies. I
was the official skinner, and was
kept busy most of the time. One
day big buckskin horse belong

told me to skin him. I hadn't any
more than got the hide off, when
a hide buyer came along and
bought it. When we got up next
there stood the old horse
trying to get into the barn with
out any hide on, almost frozen. We
grabbed up bunch of green sheep
hides and sewed them on him.
They took root, he lived, and that
spring he sheared nearly five hum

A distinct political tinge was
given the thirty-fourth convention
of the United Mine Workers of
America today when its officers
gave unstinted praise to President
Roosevelt for his lending "of a
helping hand to the oppressed and
impoverished mine worker"
Declaring the Supreme Courts
invalidation of the NRA was "un-
fortunate" the officers of the
union miners also lined up with
the "anti-court bloc" in Congress
and pledged to support legislation
that would require greater una
nimity on the part of the court in
exercising its great veto powers"
over laws passed by Congress.
Roosevelt Lauded
They said they believed "Such
legislation would augment rather
than detract from the dignity of
that august tribunal and transfer
the exercise of judicial control of
legislation to a sound basis and a
higher plane
The joint report of the interna-
tional officers-John L. Lewis,
president; Philip Murray, vice
president, and Thomas Kennedy,
Secretary-treasurer, who is also
lieutenant governor of PennSylva-
mia, said:
I'VE have made progress and
our people feel an intense graf
itude to our able and cOur-
ageOuS President who is the
only President ..during the
lifetime of most of us, who has
lent a helping hand to the OPP
pressed and impoverished mine
worker.
May the prayers Of count
less thousands in the. mining
communities sustain him in his
great humanitarian work."
RAP AT COURT
The report then took up the
action of the Supreme Court in
declaring the MIRA unconstitu-
tional. On this point it said:
ut is unfortunate that NRA
was declared unconstitutional.
LaggardneSS on the part of
many producers, and an unwill-
ingness on the part of others
to cooperate in maintaining de-
cent price standards in the
winter of 1934-35 contributed

MONTGOMERY, Ala, Jan. 20
Q.N.SO.-Gov. Bibb Graves Of
Alabama today had no additional
statement to make relative to the
shooting of Ozie Powell, Scots
boro defendant, who was seri-
ously wounded last Friday while
being taken to Birmingham from
the trial scene.
After reading the report of
Capt. Potter Smith, the governor
said the officers did their duty
and were to be commended. He
said he did not believe charges
that the stabbing Of Deputy Sher-
if Edgar Blalock was provoked
by the deputy's miStreatment of
Powell.
Captain Smith reported to the
governor that he found that
Powell and Deputy Blalock were
scuffling over the officers pistol
when Powell was shot,.

The report condemned tn e
work of the industry in setting
up the Appalachian wage scale
committee and the national pol
icy committee for the "trium-
plant and electrifying results
which eliminated their strategic
efforts in securing this remarka-
BILE agreement.
Conferences Planned
The report said further:
1T is to be regretted that
other trades and industries did
not secure the marked degree
of improvement that was OBJ
tanned by the United Mine
Workers and the operators dur
ing the period of NRA' and
since its demise. If the same
contribution had been made by
other industries the grave men

not be hanging like a huge

ferences at which time the

"At this time we will en-

the protection but to secure
everything possible by way Of
advantage to our people to the
end that a satisfactory agree

DUAL UNION PROBLEM
The report said the anthracite
districts have had many trials
and difficulties in the proper
conduct of their affairs" and
continued:
Unemployment, dual unions,
lack of equalization Of working
time, were some of these diff
culties. Happily, we are glad
to report that the dual union
known as the United Anthracite
Miners of Pennsylvania has run
its course and its officers, in
a statement to James A. Cor

Cancellation board, who medi-
ated il the matter, wound up
the affairs of that organization

The report said the United

in good faith and with every
desire to cooperate and work mat

Referring to the Supre g

Is Cited by Rires
Better Food Is Provided
in Lieu of Small Pay
They Don't Get.

A survey of the kitchen in the Dis
trict iail reveals two different menus
for each meal-both for prisoners.
The plain bill of fare is for the
regular prisoners who remain in the
cell blocks or are assigned to ordinary
labor about the jail. The food is
served in aluminium dishes and the
diet is the same for all.
Served on regular dishes and some
what more appetizing is the second
menu. It is prepared for those prls-
oners who are assigned to the clerical
work of the institution and who. ac-
cording to Supt. Rives, are entitled
to something better than the rest.
The reason for this, Rives explains,
Is that numerous prisoners who other
wise would be sent to the District
workhouse or reformatory are re-
tanned at the Jail for special work.
If they went to the other institutions
they would be allowed some small
monetary compensation for the work
done. At the jail, however, there can
be no extra allowance, so officials do
the best they can by allowing these
men better food, served under more
pleasant conditions.
