PENSION CHECKS GO
TO OHIO NEEDY AGED

Columbus, o. (OLNS).-Governor
Martin L. Davey last week ordered the
transfer of $1,OO0,000 from the gen.
eral revenue fund for the payment of
October old age pensions, and loosed
another blast at the Social Security
Board in which he asked for Con-
gressional investigation.
At odds with the Board since be-
fore the primary election over the
administration Of the Ohio aged pen
sion law, which resulted finally in the
Board ordering Federal funds for
payment of pensions withheld, Cover
nor Davey ordered State Finance Di-
rector Allison to make available the
necessary funds for the payment of
full pensions.
Declaring that the Social Security
Board has mo defense for its cruel
and arbitrary actions," Governor
Davey announced that it was his pur-
pose to ask for a Congressional in
vestigation of "this high-handed Fed
eral Board early in the coming year." I"

Cambridge Future
Very rYEncouraging
Shop Running Full Steum
Ahead At Present

Cambridge, O.-With the election
out Of the way and Christmas Just
around the corner Local Union No.
l22 is expecting business to rally in
Cambridge. All members are enjoy
ing better work, production was a lit
tie slow for awhile, but both plants
are now working full capacity. The
future here at the Cambridge shops
looks very encouraging.
Local Union 122 had the pleasure
of having delegation from Local
Union 124, East Liverpool. We GER
tainly enjoyed their visit and hope
they will call again soon.
Cambridge potters will have an op-
portunity to have the unemployment
insurance explained to them thorough
ly by man connected with the ad-
ministration of this law. President
Wardeska plans to hold an open meet
ing and employees Of both plants are
urged to attend. We suggest that
the shop committee in each plant can
vass the departments to determine
how many will attend the meeting.
Everyone should hear this address,
make it 100 per cent attendance.

Nh 1i1num Pay Set For
Fireworks Industry

Washington, d. C. (AFLWNS).-
Manufacturers Of various sorts Of
fireworks purchased by the Govern
ment Of the United States are now re-
quired to pay their employees minimum
wage rates in compliance with the or
der Of Secretary Of Labor Frances
Perkins under the provisions of the
Walsh Healey Public Contracts Act.
The order decreed that the mini
mum wage for firms manufacturing or
supplying commercial fireworks to the
Government shall be 3l.25 cents an
hour or $3.50 per week for a week of
40 hours, arrived at either upon time
or piece work basis, and that for firms
manufacturing or supplying fusees,
flares, and ship and railroad torpedoes
shall be 37.5 cents an hour or SIS per
week for week of 40 hours, arrived
at either upon time or piece work
basis.
Secretary Perkins issued the order
in accordance with the recommendation
of the Public Contracts Board of the
Department Of Labor.
In the commercial fireworks branch
of the industry the Public Contracts
Board found that some of the en-
ployes were paid less than 80 cents
an hour and that firms manufacturing
fusees, flares, and ship and railroad
torpedoes paid some of their employees
less than 1926 cents an hour.

Stredrnliners Reported
Rdilrodd Money Makers

New York City NLNS).-Coverdale
and Colpitts, frm of engineers
which has specialized in high speed,
streamlined, light weight, stainless
steel railroad trains, has made a sur
vey which they say proves that these
trains are the best paying investment
the railroads have.
The Burlington Zephyrs earn, net,
678 per cent Of their gross receipts.
The streamliners of the Santa Fe earn
clear gains of 6l.3 per cent. The
Hiawathas of the Chicago, Milwaukee,
St. Paul & Pacific clear TAI per cent
of their takings.
Naturally, the firm which designs
these trains would say nothing against
them, but no one has even suggested
that they are stretching the facts.

$4,000 Minimum
Annual Income
Coal Of A.
Result Could Be Achieved
II Industry Operated
At Capacity

Washington, D. C.-United action
by labor, Government and industry to
operate our productive machinery at
it's full capacity and distribute the
production equitably would make an
annual income Of $4,000 or more pos
sible for every family in the United
States with "higher incomes for those
in responsible POSITIONS" the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor declared in
it's monthly Survey of Business"
Holding that the $4,000 objective
could be achieved through the Gre
alton Of mass markets capable of pur-
chasing the output of mass production,
the Federation suggested the estab-
lishment of a Federal commission to
make "thoroughgoing study of the
nations consuming needs" and neces-
sary methods of production and dis
tribution to realize this end.
The A. F. of l.. said the survey
would form a basis for a program
under democratic methods to get the
necessary goods produced" and which
would "give private business an op-
portunity to raise production rapidly
with assurance Of reasonable profit.
Recommending that the commission
be composed of representatives of
''owners, management and labor con-
cerned in production and distribution,
consumers and government repre-
sentatives and served by technicians, u
the Federation added.
"The old conception of wages
based on human skills and energy
alone, is totally inadequate. Workers
today are not receiving the wages
justified by their power to produce
Productivity wages can be established
through collective bargaining by Q)
raising wages according to increases
in productivity in an industry and by
(2) some form of partnership wage
which share excess income equitably
between management, workers and in
vestors.
"The captains of industry created
mass production, but they could not
build up a mass market able to alb
sorb the production of high powered
industry plants. Therefore, our plant
has never been used to capacity, and
we have the spectacle Of millions on
starvation incomes in the midst of a
possible plenty"

CHAIN STORE TAX BILL
Washington, D. C.-Ry unanimc

Washington, D. C.-By unanimous
vote the American Federation of La
Dor Convention at Houston adopted a
