26.-Tony-pandy. lost in the
desolate valley of the Rhondda,
"A left its grief in the coal pits to-
day and bet its dreary life on Tommy

BY all the laws of human nature
this should be the saddest valley in

seems it is. But Ton-y-pandy
Tommy is fighting Joe Louis for the
world heavyweight title tonight and
Ton-y-pandy is happy.
Colored paper flaps gayly at the
windows of the houses. Low and
Means streets are filled with visitors
from all parts Of Wales.
Men sit on the bridge which crosses
the Rhondda River to Trealaw and
curse the sports writer's who say their
Tommy cannot win.
Religion Stirred En-. .
MOT since the great religious revival
swept the Rhondda Valley in 1905
has Ton-y-pandy seen such enthu-
siasm. Then Evangelist Evan Roberts
inspired the miners: now it is Farr.
Until the square-headed Tommy
came along the church fought boxing
at every turn. Banners condemning
the sport were hoisted across the
streets at every prize-fight hall. Min
listers preached against this "un-
Christian practice"
But today Ton-y-pandy's vicar and
on-conformist minister were praying
like the rest for a Farr victory.
The entire Spartan order of life in
the village was upset when the miners
came from the pits in the early after
noon and blimbed Trealaw Mountain
with wood for great bonfire which
will be touched off If Farr wins.
The miners believe it simply a mat
ter of time until they light up the bon
fire. They do not even consider the
alternative.

This stand became known on
the eve of the opening of a series
of conferences called by Secrc'
tary of Labor Frances Perkins to
discuss means Of establishing in
dustrial peace under the Wagner
law.
twenty-five Of 80 outstanding
business and labor leaders invited
to the first of the meetings on
Tuesday have notified Miss Per
kins that they will be present.
Those who counsel Mr., RooSc-
welt in the highly explosive labor
situation have studied various pro-
posals advanced by industrial or
carnations since the U. 5. SUI
premc court validated the Wagner
law and have reached the conclu-
sion that it is too early to conSid-

Until the law has had what they
described privately last night as
"a fair chance" TO operate, repre-
scntativcs of these two groups
will combat vigorously any at
tempt to revise it in favor Of in
dustry. On this stand, it was un'

the act is perfect. They are quar-
rcling, for example, over a change
proposed by Green. Under the
law the thrcc-man national labor
board is permitted to designate
either a craft or Il plant union aS
the agent of collective bargaining
after an election is held among
the workers.
The Federation is sponsoring an
amendment which would compel
the workers to be pollcd by craft
instead of by plant. This would
be a blow to Lewis Onc-blg-unlon
drive and he will fight the amend
mcnt vigorously.
Agitatcd by industrial groups
thus far for new safeguards has
brought demands for:
/. Incorporation of labor unions
to make them more responsible.
2. Compulsory mediation.
3. An amendment to the Wag-
ner Act which would prohibit
unions from coercing workers into
joining their organization. The act
now places this restriction only
upon the employer.

Final ruling
ON OLD ACEAID
LEVY SOUGHT
Would Take InvaIidation
to Supreme Courts
Current Term
ONE COURT CHANGE
FOE HEARD TODAY

WASHINGTON, April 10. -
(UP).-Justice department Off
Gals today rushed preparation Of
an appeal designed to obtain de-
cision on constitutionality Of fed
eral old age pension taxes before
the supreme court ends its term in
June.
Fearful that the Boston circuit
court Of appeals decision holding
the taxes unconstitutional might
lead to stoppage Of tax income
dudgeted for the current year at
1924, 100000 and affecting an
estimated 27,000,000 persons,
government attorneys planned TO
use every "short cut" possible TO
get the case before the court this
week.
The lawyers who challenged the
taxes on behalf of George ?. Ds-
Wis, stakeholder in the Edison H.
Illuminating company of Boston.
were expected to cooperate in
speeding the case, which must be-
argued not later than the week of
May 3 if the court is expected to
rule on it this term.
The high tribunal already has
under advisement cases testing
the constitutionality Of federal
unemployment taxes, another part
of the social security system. Ad-
dition of q test Of old age pension
taxes will give a broader test Of
the social security law which, cx-
cept for IVA, now forms the only
major Roosevelt administration
test pending in the court.
Paralleling the government be
fore the court will be the fight Of
opponents Of President Roosc-
velt's supreme court rcorganiza-
ton program before the senate
judiciary committee.
The committee ended today'S
hearing after an unprecedented
Commute session.
Indications are that public testi-
mony on the presidents court
plan will conclude this week. The
only witness today was Alan Lin
burg, New York stock broker,
who opposed the court program as
a step toward dictatorship. He
also maintained it would end
states rights.
But Senator Frederick Van
Mugs, D., Ind, one Of the opposi
ton leaders, predicted last night
"when we close the administra
ton will close" asserting his belief
that they would not make use OF
their time allotment.

discussed the Canadian strike and

OSHAWA, Ont, Apr. ~. CUP
Promise of unlimited financial aid
from United States units of the
United Automobile Workers of
America last night bolStcrcd the
spirits of striking employees of the
OShawa plant Of General Motors
of Canada, Ltd. at time when
it appeared that the local strikers
might cut away from the ClO for
lack of support from across the
border.
Hugh TompSon. Canadian or
ganizer for John l.. Lewis Com
mittcc for Industrial Organiza-
ton. promised the 300 strikers
through their leaders that ample
funds would be available to sup
port them as long as it was ncccS-
Sary to hold out until the COM
pany grants union recognition.
The definite assurance of funds
apparently served to bring dis
gruntlcd strikers back into the
fold. 1t had been reported that
some of the local leaders were in
Sisting that Homer Martin, U.S.A.
head. call strike of all units IN
the United States. The pledge Of
financial aid apparently was a
compromise, as Martin is under
stood to have advised the strike
leaders that it would be unwiSc to
call out General Motors workers
in the United States.
Plans To carry on the strike all
summer if necessary were mapped
out as three committees were APP
pointed to look after the workers.
A softball league and other sports
events were arranged by the en-
tertainmcnt committee. Sick, be-
ncvolcnt and welfare committees
also were appointed. -,
Thompson promised that all
strikers and their families would
be taken care of until recognition
of the CIO is granted in Canada.
