While Adams resorts to scientific
wrestling, Pete will use everything
in the book although it is predicted
by Pete's Finnish friends here in
Butte who number several hundred,
that Pete can beat any man his
weight either in a scientific or a
smuggling match. Pete was heralded
on the coast as one of the biggest
attractions in the wrestling game and
if those press clippings mean any,
thing, Butte will turn out en- masse
to e him.
Another bout of interest is the
semi-final between King Kong Clay
ton, the colored boy who resembles
fighter Joe Louis, and Billy Shinall,
a newcomer from New York.
The opener brings the popular
Alaska Jacques Eku against Art
Belcher, the Amarillo flash.
Wildcat Pete makes one request:
please tell the people with weak
hearts not to attend my Matches
A new scale of prices will be in
augurated; the ringside and elevated

Of the house 55 cents, including tax.
The popular red-headed butcher,
Al Lee, has been chosen for referee.

MURRAY ANSW RS.
GREEN'S CHARGES AT.
|. I. U. CONVENTION

LOUISVILLE, KY. (UNS) - Con
tinued support of the policies and
activities of the Committee for In
dustrial Organization was urged by
President Charles P. Howard, in a
speech at the 81st annual conven-
ton of the International Typograph-
ical Union. Howard, who is secre-
tary of the c. I. o., spoke in answer
to an attack on the c. 1. o. by Viii
liam Green, president Of the A. F.
of L.
Calling for a reaffirmation of the
proc. I. o. resolution passed at
Colorado Springs last year, Howard
said that the I, T. U. would not with
draw from the A. F. of L., but would
continue to back the c. I. o. pro-
gram. He called attention to the
fact that none of the c. I. o. unions
had voluntarily withdrawn from the
Federation, but had been suspended
by the A. F. of L. executive council
The 1886 resolution pledged the
moral and financial support of the
I. T. U. to the organization of the
steel workers and "other morgan
lied industries now being conducted
by the Committee for Industrial Or
g~anization."
Philip Murray, chairman of the
Steel Workers Organizing Commit
tee, speaking as an official C. 1. o.
representative at the convention,
said that the Indifference and in
activity of the A. F. of L. toward
the organization of the great army
of unorganized workers in America
had forced the c. 1. o. to begin a
campaign which had resulted in
bringing 100000 workers into the
industrial union movement.
Answers "Alien" Charge
Taking up Green's charges that
the c. L. o. has alien trends and
doctrines, Murray asked:
rs there anything alien in the
purpose Of establishing powerful
militant unions?
SIS there anything alien in men
belonging to independent, construc-
tive unions?
rs there anything alien in the
doctrine of the greater distribution
of wealth?
eff these are alien doctrines and
PHILOSOPHERS, then John L. Lewis is
alien in these things, so am /, and to
be perfectly frank, so are you"
Delegates rose to their feet before
and after Murray's speech in ovation
to the S. w. o. c. leader and inter
rupted him frequently during the
course of his talk with prolonged
applause.
Describing the success won by the
c. l. o. steel union, Murray declared
that more than 100000 workers in
1,040 lodges now belonged to the
S. w. o. c., and that contracts with
412 steel companies had been signed.
He said that the concerted efforts
of c. l. o. unions had succeeded in
increasing wages more than $780,
100000.

~ ger has become so popular that

ingredient in many dishes. In fact,
when it comes to considering how to
use tomato juice in cooking, it is only
necessary to allow the imagination to
wander and experiment.
Tomato juice may be added to
gravies to lend IN appetizing flavor or
in meat loaves for a similar reason. 1t
makes a splendid base for croquette
sauces. Soups of all kinds may be
improved with the addition Of tomato
flavor. In baking, tomato juice may
often be used advantageously in place
Of lemon juice. 1t improves the flavor
Of spice cake and many kinds of
cookies. In salads, tomato juice makes
another happy contribution to health
full foods, combining beautifully with
gelatin to enrich the flavor Of the dish.
Since summer weather brings a
special craving for light, crisp, Tempt
ing salads, you will find the following
recipe for tomato juice ring, one which
you will wish to nominate for your next
family dinner. 1t is attractive in color,
unusual in flavor, wholesome and
inexpensive. If you haven't a bottle of

Wildcat Pete Set for Foe on
Wrestling Card Friday Night
at the Old Stand in the Miners
Union Hall.

Wrestling fans can expect punches

Wildcat Pete, who has showed his
superiority by defeating King Kong
Clayton a few weeks ago, takes on
Whiskers Adams, already a favorite
with Butte mat fans and who made
a favorable impression in Hollywood,
Los Angeles, etc.
Several of Whiskers' matches in
California were heard over the air
here recently and judging from the
enthusiasm Of the audience, Whis-

the findings thereafter will be announced
on the subsequent Sunday broadcast. The
point of interest to many will be that
these experiments start young people
thinking and exploring along lines that
tend to widen their interest in life and the
universe, to arouse hope of broader phil
osophies than our materialistic sciences
have done.
The program will continue to be drama
tized, The aim being to depict the presence
of esp" in living people. Each case thus
dramatized will be authenticated by docu-

ployes, but also to improve the condi-
tions under which men and women
and children must work and accord
them measure of security during old
age and periods Of unemployment.
During the recent depression the
workers in practically all classes of
industry underwent hardships and
the privations never before endured
by the American people and made it
necessary for State governments and
the Federal Government to engage in
enormous expenditures for relief and
to afford employment to the unem-
ployed.
There has been a marked improve
ment in the employment situation
during the last three or four years.
We have undoubtedly turned the cor
ner and are definitely on our way to
a more permanent and more fairly
distributed prosperity. During this
process OF recovery there have been
numerous labor disputes growing out
OF wages and hours and the right to
bargain collectively in determining
wages and hours and conditions of
employment. These disturbances dur
ing periods Of recovery from long de-
pressions are not unusual. They have
occurred at the end of every depres-
sion and during the process of re-
covery. During long depressions not
only does industry separate large
numbers Of workers from their posi-
tions, but they also reduce wages and
impose harder working conditions
upon their employees. shall not here
attempt to discuss the wisdom or JUS
tice of such policy. The fact re-
mains it does occur, 1t has occurred
and always occurs in periods Of great
industrial depression.
When the processes OF recovery be-
gin, and profits begin to be realized
and accumulate in the industries
themselves. 1t is natural that the en-
ployes OF these industries should not
only seek to recover the ground they
lost during the depression, but it Is
also natural that they should seek to
advance their position beyond the
Evening star., 1937-04-20

as . sincere and practical method by
which our industrial system may be
elevated to higher standard Of ef-
hciency and OF justice among those
whose brains and whose muscles and
whose very lives are devoted to the
production and distribution and en-
1oyment Of the things which we have
come to regard as so essential to the
American way Of living.
Let us believe that the Government
OF the United States is not a great
monster seeking to establish some mys-
teriols and brutal sway over the lives
OF men and women and children for
