ANTI-SPOTTER' LAW
SACRAMENTO, Cal, April 30.
U,P)-An "Anti-Spotter" law, long
sought by organized labor, was
before the senate today.
The upper house judiciary COM
mittee recommended the bill which
already has passed the assembly.
Under its terms no employe could
be discharged or disciplined OH
the basis of a Spoilers report
without an opportunity to face his
accuSer at a hearing.
Opponents objected on the ground
that recognition of special agents
under such proceedings would min
imize their value to company.
Another measure aimed specifi-
cally at "Sit down" strikers was
reported out favorably by the SEN
ate committee on revision of GRIM
inal law.
The bill by Senator Harry l..
Parkman would define as treSpaSs
entry on real property without per-
mission and against the expressed
will OF the owner.
LABOR BILL
SACRAMENTO, Cal, April 80.
(UP)-The Crittenden labor rela-
tions bill, passed by the senate,
was placed before the assembly to-
day by the labor and capital COM
mittee.
Voluntary mediation of agricul-
tural and industrial disputes with
provisions for secret ballot of en-
ployes on terms proposed by en-
ployerS, are the outstanding points
in the bill
The measure would set up a
board of five members appointed
by the governor, which would me-
diate or arbitrate labor troubles
upon request of both disputantS.

NICE TO RECALL
LEGISLATURE
NEXT WEEK

r. ANNAPOLIS, April 15.-With
nGovernor Nice declaring he will
o"pocket veto" the relief bill which
legalized bookmaking, a special
a session Of the legislature will be
@ called next Monday or Tuesday to
Isdraft new relief legislation.
:. Governor Nice said he is allow
Ing the bill to die for two reasons:
because it does not provide enough
money for relief needs, and be-
cause he is opposed to legalization
Of bookmaking.
The board of State Aid and
Charities estimated that Sc, 400 900
a year would be required to meet
relief demands, and Nice said the
bill would raise less than So
100000.
He declined to say what recon
mendation he will make to the
legislature when it reconvenes, but
1t was understood he will ask for
an increase in the State real
estate tax to raise relief funds.
Vigorous opposition to such a
tax is developing among the legiS-
lators, and Senator o. Straughn
Lloyd of Wicomico county de-
clared he would stay in Annapolis
all summer before voting to in
crease real estate taxes.
Senator Lloyd launched a bitter
attack on the method of handling
relief in the State, declaring there
are "too many high salaries and
jobs in the relief administration. F."
Urges Liquor Tax Boost
He also charged that half Of the
people on relief in his county
spend the money for liquor, and
declared that liquor should pay
the relief bill.
Senator Olin Higgins of Dor
chester county declared he will
, favor increasing the tax on beer
to 81 q barrel and on whiSkey to
5 cents a gallon, rather than tax
real estate higher.

The event. expected to attract
even more attention than the sim

ably will be given on November
II and 10, according to Vice Presi-
dent Carl H. Klein Of the Union
Label League.
Selection Of the November date
was based on a desire to renew
interest in the value Of looking
for union labels before the
Christmas buying rush begins. In
connection with the exhibit and
carnival, a Label Guide" is being
prepared.
The guide, being produced under
the direction of Frank Fabrizio,

Disputes Quickly
Possibility that work would stop
has been avoided at least four
times recently in the District of
Columbia because of the settle
ment Of jurisdictional disputes in
the building trades by. the new
American Federation Of Labor ar
bitration plan.
Smoothly and efficiently the To-
cal set-up, headed by q juriSdic-
tional arbitration board, gave judg-
ment in four cases in which two
or more unions claimed the right
to do similar work.
Most important was the case In
volving the placement Of a tile
ceiling in the Federal Reserve
Building. This dispute threatened
to grow into a general walkout-
and probably would have resulted
in layoffS and weeks Of Wrangling
under the old system-but every
thing was finally settled without
the loss Of wages by any workman.
Three unions. the Lathers' No.
9, District Council Of Carpenters
and the Plasterers' No. 96, were
the contending parties in the Fed
eraI Reserve Building case. The
arbitration board, composed of
four members from the Washing
ton Building Trades Council, two
from the Associated General Con-

awarded the job Of placing the

Early Veterinarians

Ancient Egypt, Greece and Rome
had veterinarians. But then they
concerned themselves with horses,
the only animals deemed valuable
enough to merit medical care. Most
important to the ancients were their
armies, and horses composed big
part of their armies. The first COL
lege for veterinarians was estab-
lished in France in 1851; in America
almost century later. Then came
the machine age, and horses lost
their value. Veterinarians became
fewer and fewer. But the recent in
crease of valued pet dogs and cats
saved the profession. Veterinarians
have their own medical association,
and must study three or four years
in a recognized college to become
members. Student vets" study all
domestic animals. but often special
.ize in one, or even one breed of
dogs.
