GOODYEAR DENIES
MI. R. B. CHARGES
Complaint Held "Unfair and
UnWarranted" by Rub.
ber Company.
Ey the Associated Press.

AKRON. Ohio. July 13-The Good
year Tire g. Rubber Co. issued a
statement today terming "unwar-
ranted and unfair" charges contained
in a complaint issued in Washington
against the company Saturday by the
National Labor Relations Board.
The complaint charged the COM
pany with completely" In three as
saults on members and organizers of
the United Rubber Workers of Amer
lea at Gadsden, Ala; asserted an "in-
dustrial assembly" of Goodyear work.
ers was under the domination Of the
company" and that the company had
made threats" to remove some OF its
operations from Akron.
The statement follows:
Goodyear has no information re-
garding the complaint which 1t Is said
will be filed by the National Labor Re-
lations Board. No notice of the filing
Of charges has been served upon the
company.
Charges "Unwarranted."
IF the National Labor Relations
Board plans to make a complaint
against Goodyear and il the charges
contained in that complaint are In ac-
cordance with press reports, then the
charges are unwarranted and unfair.
The N. L. r. B. complaint as quoted
in press reports is in the main merely
a repetition Of the propaganda which
has been employed for weeks past by
the more intemperate union spokes-
men and agitators in their campaigns
to force the employees Of Goodyear
into the union.
Goodyear has repeatedly disclaimed
any connection with the assault cases
at Gadsden, and 1t Is significant that
the tactics Of one of the Labor Boards
investigators In Gadsden drew from
the city's governing commission a
sharp charge Of unfairness and preju-
dice.
so far as the industrial assembly
plan Is concerned, it was instituted in
1919 and for many years has stood as
model Of cooperation and harmony
between management and employees.
Under its operation, Goodyear en-
ployes attained the highest wages
among mass industries, in addition to
short hours, paid vacations, retirement
pensions and many other unusual
benefits. The Industrial Assembly
continues to represent a vast ma joritv
OF Goodyear employees, despite the de-
termined assaults of outside agitators.
Production Stepped Up.
I'm the matter of decentralization,
Goodyear has refrained from any an
nouncement Of any preliminary plans.
1t is fact that production in our
Gadsoen and other subsidiary plants
has been stepped up because of diff
culties In obtaining satisfactory volume
from the Akron plants. 1t is like
wise fact that plans are progressing
for additional outside production and
that current conditions make it appear
that these plans will have to be pushed
to an early conclusion.
However, these moves are not de-
signed to strike at the union, but to
insure the company's ability to fill Gus
toner orders. In due course, proper
legal steps will be taken by GOODYEAR
in connection with the Labor Boards
charges"

New England Council, was expected to
arrive later to put in a recommended
tion for Connecticut and Massachu-
sets, other States hit hard by floods
early this year.
After long wrangle, the last Con-
gress passed an omnibus flood control
bill authorizing 1920, 900 900 of prof.
ects throughout the country.
The President signed the measure,
but pointed out 1t was merely an au-
thorization and carried no appropri-
ations.
An inter-departmental committee
thereafter was set up to study the
subject.
White House officials said the Pres
ident would take things easy the re-
mainder of the day. He is eager to
get behind the helm of the Savanna
with his boys-so eager that he said

forces are not split.
Watching the dispute closely also
are political leaders Of both major
parties as the Democrats fear a split
in labor's vote and the Republicans
hope for the same thing.

Landon aides said PEEK, who was the

REMEMBERED.
A MAN walked into the Office OF q
Baltimore instrument manufac-
turing firm last week with a handful
of blond hair.
It seems that the heart of a humid
ity-registering device is composed Of
rope" of some II human hairs,
treated to extract all oil and mois-
ture. The hairs are extremely sensi-
tive to changes in humidity and record
them on scale which controls the
operation of air-conditioning .ap-
paratus.
"Why use this hair?" asked the
manager of the firm. "It will take
week to prepare it, and we have
plenty on hand"
II know" the customer insisted,
"but this hair is from my wife's head.
She died yesterday, and I want it
permanently installed in the humidi-
fer recorder in my home"
The amazed manager complied with
the request. incidentally, tests have
shown that blond hair makes superior
instruments, and that 1t improves
with age.

cooling contraption in his home. With
out benefit of blue prints or single
memorandum to anybody anywhere,
he rigged the thing up and says 1t
reduced temperatures in his house
about is degrees.
Here's the way it was done: He
started an electric fan stirring up the
air in the basement, where the ther-
mometer registered about 10, COM
pared to 95 on the upper floors. Closed
all windows in the house. Rut an
other fan in a circular window OPEN
ing in the attic, and packed 1t in
tight so the blade would draw hot air
out. Left slight hole beside the
fan big enough to slip hose through,
and set the hose up so it sprays the
roof.
The basement fan kicks the cool
bree7es up to the first floor, where
the hot air is rising and drifting up
to the second floor, thence to be drawn
to the attic by the fan up there. The
hose spattering on the roof cools 1t a
bit, but as nobody is in the attic any,
how, its main virtue is the sound, like
cool tropical rain. If cat steps on
the hose, that winds the clock, which
rings an alarm and fries the breakfast
eggs, in the Frigidaire.

The present orchestra was
organized in 1926 by the must
clans themselves, who banded
together to revive what was at
one time one of Americas three
ranking symphony orchestras.
The orchestra was disbanded
in 1909.
The late Victor Herbert was
one of the orchestra'S directors,
having served during the early

is Antonio Modarelli, a native
of Pittsburgh, who, like Her.

has two operas, two symphonic
poems and many smaller pieces
to his credit.
