Ry PATRICIA LINDSAY.

Because there is real danger in
being overweight it is good for a
woman to keep as near normal in
weight as is possible. Your health
is of primary Importance always.
You must protect it while you re-
duce. and you must also eat of Suf-
ficient food to create enough en-
ergy while you are reducing.
Quite naturally. no one is capable
of planning a specific diet which
would be equally applicable to every
individual.
Reasons for overweight are many,
and it is impossible to suggest
menus for slimming which would
include the proper amounts of vita
MINIS for all health conditions.
Therefore I earnestly urge you to
consult a physician before you un-
dertake to follow this diet.
AS it is better to reduce ones
menus gradually than to drastically
cut the amount of food you have
been eating. this new diet is planned
for a sane reduction in weight.
The first weeks menus will re-
duce your hunger, the second week S
menu will permit you to reduce ap-
proXimately two pounds, the third
and fourth weeks menus allow you
to reduce more than two pounds.
Weigh yourself each Saturday morn
ing. The number of pounds you
Will lose in one month will depend
solely upon you.
You may eat either the minimum
humber of calories, or the maxi
mum number of calories. If you
wish to reduce slowly, eat the maxi
mum number Of calories and repeat
he menus the second month. You
will lose at least two pounds per
week by so doing. and possibly
more. That too depends upon how
much food YOU have been consuming
before starting to reduce.
Along with the diet are health
'ules. These YOU must follow.
They are simple but important.
Ind do not expect to lose any
weight unless YOU follow the menus
closely without cheating between
meals,
Before going on this reducing
diet get your physicians ap-
proval. You may be the one
person with whom it may not
agree. While reducing follow
Miss Lindsay's Diet Health Rules
which may be had upon request.

j. MEDICAL SOCIETY
OPPOSES EXTENSION OF
PUBLIC HEALTH SERVICE

NEW YORK.-In letters recently
sent to its members the Medical So
ciety of the state Of New Jersey
took the position that public health
activities of local governments
should be limited to the maintenance
of institutions for the care of the
insane, epileptics, and those having
communicable diseases. The Bureau
of Cooperative Medicine condemned
this attitude as contrary to the pres
en- trend and inconsistent with the
position taken by the American

0'(0NNELL CALLS FOR
MORE WPA Flu N DIS

Under date of January 30th the
New York Times carried an article
by R. L. Duffus who interviewed
the acting administrator of the WPA
in Washington in which the finan-
cial problem which has been in
Cured by the recent rise in un-
employment was reviewed.
1t will be remembered that under
the current fiscal year Appropria-
ton Act for the WPA, a strict quota
system was inaugurated and the
funds allotted to the various states
tightly budgeted. AS a consequence,
a rise in unemployment means that
if the WPA increases their quotas
in the various states at the present
time, radical reduction will have to
be made during the late spring and
early summer months in order that
the WPA may stay strictly within
their budget. On the other hand,
while the quotas will be reduced
monthly as summer approaches, the
reduction will not be so sharp if
the load is not greatly increased at
the present time.
However, the need of increased
WPA expenditures to alleviate cir
cumstances caused by increased UNI
employment has become so great
that the WPA apparently is reach
ing the decision that they will have
to shoot the roll" at the present
time in order to avoid serious criti-
cism.
1t is interesting to note at this
point (and most Montanans will
take pride in this fact) that our
Congressman, Jerry ]. O'Connell is
playing a leading role to alleviate
this situation. Quoted in the above
issue of the New York Times is the
following paragraph:
Perhaps the most outspoken body
of men in Congress on the subject
of relief is the so-called Liberal
bloc in the House, of which Rep
resentative Jerry J.. O'Connell of
Montana is a spokesman. Sixty odd
members of the bloc meet once a
week at dinner and discuss their
program. In a pinch they believe
they can muster about a hundred
votes. The bloc is now committed
to greatly increased relief expendi-
lures and the repeal of the Wood
rum amendment. Mr.. O'Connell
has introduced a bill appropriating
an additional 81, 500, 600, 900 for WPA
for the remainder of the present
fiscal year"
1t goes without saying that if
additional money is appropriated the
WPA will be able to carry a larger
load to the close of the present fiscal
year. The efforts of Mr.. O'Connell
and his associates to get the addi-
tional appropriation of money for
the WPA will not only be appre-
ciated by the workers on the WPA
but also by those people nov certi-
fled and awaiting assignment. There
is in addition no question but what
increased expenditures at this time
will be found very acceptable to
business men and community lead
ers in general.

URGE
ADOPTION OF CHILD
LABOR AMENDMENT

The ratification of the Child Labor
Amendment by at least eight more
states was urged by the Council for
Social Action of the Congregational
and Christian Churches in a state
ment to the churches opening the
1888 campaign for the elimination
of child labor from America.
Churches observed Child Labor
Sunday, January 80, 1888.
In its statement to the churches
the Council took exception to what
it called the over-optimism of Mr..
Colby M. Chester, chairman of the
National Association of Manufactur-
ers, who on December 9th asserted
that Child labor has almost ceased
to exist in manufacturing"
mr.. Chester intimates that even
in 1880 child labor for boys and
girls under 16 years of age was
practically negligible, when he says
that at that time less than nine
tenths of l per cent of m~anufacur-
ing wage-earners were under is
years Of age We should bear in
mind that this number amounted to
1926 children-or a number rough
ly equal to all wage-earners in
shirt, collar, and cuff factories in
the United States or in flour and
grain factories.
Since 1880, the situation has i'm
proved. Ten states have established
a l6 year age minimum for employ
ment during school hours. In most
of these states the 16 year age limit
applies to factory employment at
any time. Had these laws been in
effect in 1880 they would have re-
duced child labor for boys and girls
under 16 about AZ per cent-pro-
vided there was 100 per cent en-
forcement, which unfortunately is
never the case. For instance, of the
$50 children under 16 years whom
the National Child Labor Commit
tee found working in the shrimp
industry last summer more than 300
were working in violation of the
state law.
MIR. Chester has reason for say
ing that child labor in manufactur-
ing has been reduced. But these
figures do not permit him over
optimistically to say that the prob
lem is practically at an end. Since
the invalidation Of the MIRA, there
has been a trend toward the return
of child labor. Reports to the Chill
dren's Bureau from Il states, from
the District of Columbia and from
rs cities in 10 other states show an
increase of 48 per cent in first en-
ployment certificates issued to IA
and l5-year-old children. This in
crease relates only partly to child
labor in manufacturing, and cannot
be used therefore to give us a cor
rect picture of the situation even in
that selected area. Unfortunately
we just do not know how much
child labor there is. But such fig
ures as are available do show that

MASS MEETING FOR

Local unions are calling a mass
meeting in behalf of Tom Mooney
and Warren K. Billings as part of
a nationwide campaign being con
Quoted to bring about their release.
Organizations sponsoring the meet
ing are the Silver Bow Trades and

erhood of Electrical Workers No. IS
and Butte Miners Union No.. l. Other
organizations are expected to par

This meeting will be held at the
Miners Union hall next Thursday,

ming. Everyone who is interested
in securing the release of these out
standing labor prisoners should at
tend this meeting.
The Mooney case is known
throughout the United States and
in all countries as a vicious and
brazen frameup of labor leaders by
the vested interests. This frameup
has been completely exposed with
the result that it will soon be re-
viewed by the United States Su-
preme Court.
For the crime of organizing the
workers, Mooney and Billings have
spent the last twenty years behind
bars. They were convicted
on perjured testimony which has
been retracted and proven
false. The judge who convicted

Mooney and Billings have never
asked for mercy-only justice. Two
innocent men have spent twenty
years in prison. Yet, in spite of their
established and proven innocence,
are still being made to keep

IF their lives. This monstrous crime

the complete and unconditional re-

A delegation from the Lewis and
Clark Trades and Labor Council
were visiting in Butte Wednesday
comforting with Mr.. Joseph Parker,
Mr.. James Combo and other divi-
sion heads of WPA relative to start
ing work on proposed WPA projects
in their county. The committee con-
sisted of Brett Bentley representing
the Plasterers Union, Chester Bates
of the Building Trades Council and
j. H. Venue of the Painters Union.
The Lewis and Clark Trades and
Labor Council authorized the com
mittee to present their case to state
officials. The projects in question
consist of repairing the county court
house and repairing and redecor-
ating the capitol.
This delegation was promised by
Mr.. Parker that he would use
painters, plasterers and other crafts
on these respective WPA jobs in
place of the customary rule of using
common labor for crafts work. 1t
is necessary to have these projects
started as the unemployment situa-
ton in Helena is getting desperate.
Another interesting item men

headquarters was a talk given by
Brett Bentley, president of the

Battle Wages Over
Washington, D. l.,
coop Medical Plan
Government Officials Plan to
Extend Service to 10000 Fed
eral Workers.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-The battle
between liberal and conservative
elements in the medical profession
grew in intensity this week as add
ed reinforcements came to the de-
tense of the Group Health Associa-
ton which was organized a few
months ago to enable employees of
the Home Owners Loan Corporation
to relieve the burden of the high
cost of medical care.
Battle lines were drawn tighter
around the coop health association
as DR.. Paul M. Pearson, of the Ma
tional Housing Committee and for
mel governor of the Virgin Islands,
heading a group of prominent gov
eminent officials, announced plans
to extend a system of cooperative
medicine to 10000 federal workers.
This group of government officials
accused the District of Columbia
Medical Society of attempting to
wreck the cooperative health asso-
citation by pressure on hospitals and
Congress.
Within two weeks it is expected
that litigation will begin in the Fed
eral District Court to test the legal
ity of the cooperative health associa-
ton. Previous reports that litiga-
ton had already commenced were
branded as erroneous by the Bureau
of Cooperative Medicine. The bu-
reau also announced that several of
the Group Health Association doc
tors will probably face proceedings
by the District Medical Society be-
cause of their connection with the
association.

KEENEY CASE HAS
NATIONAL Interest

The Keeney-Rowe case, soon to
come before the Supreme Court of
Montana, is the focus of attention
for labor unions, farmers, educators,
and professionals all over the United
States. Not only is the puppet State
Board Of Education on trial in this
case, but justice itself hangs in the
balance. The question resolving it.
self in the minds of all is whether
an appointed group Of Governor
Ayres' can stop the citizens of Mon
tana from operating a free educa-
tional system in this state,
AS soon as the nationwide pub
licity broke on the shameful treat
ment Of Keeney and Rowe by the
governor and certain members OF
the State Board of Education, the
University of Montana's reputation
dropped a number of degrees in the
estimate of educators here and in
other states. A leading Midwest
ern University refused to recon-
mend any of its graduates for con
sideration as possible candidates for
the Montana faculty. One man, at
least, it is known, turned down a
rather important post which was
open because he did not want to
teach and live under such circum-
stances as the University of Mon
tana now offers. This man recently
took a Phi. d. from one of the coun-
try's most highly rated schools. His
coming to the faculty in Missoula
would have meant a special benefit
to the students there. But he would
not come. Nor would any other
man who has the desire to continue
in his work free of dictatorial snoop-
ing. Second and third rate teachers
of little experience and small schol-
arly credits r plentiful and easy
to hire. That they have little to
offer the students they teach means
little in the minds of the persons
who put Keeney out.
We in Montana who believe in
democracy and undefiled education
as its foundation can never rest I'M
til our educational system is purged
of political and economic DONNA
ton. The most important step in
this effort for free and impartial
education in our unsupported in
stitutions is the unconditional re-
instatement of Keeney and Rowe
in their rightful positions on the
Montana faculty.
The labor unions, the farmers
unions and every honest citizen has
indicated wholehearted support for
the reinstatement of the two men
who bore the brunt of reactions bid
to Hitlerize the public school sys-
tenn.
There is no place IN Montana Tor
the methods of Hitler and Mussolini
or their enthusiasts. American pub
lie school systems were built to pro-
mulgate democracy and not dictator
ship. The school system and the
Commonwealth of Montana are not
the toys of Governor Ayers and of
the Anaconda Copper Mining Com
pany.
If Keeney and Rowe are not re-
instated no Montana citizen can
deny that the copper collar colors
what his children learn in the pub
lie schools.
