FL. Club On Record
Against Wage Cut

At its meeting held June 9, the
Sandstone Farmer-Labor club
passed a resolution opposing
proposed Is percent wage cut for
railway workers and to support
President Roosevelt's recovery
program. Following is the reso-
luton as passed:
Whereas, the Association of Amer
lean Railways has voted to serve
notice upon the railroad unions of its
intention to cut wages Is per cent
effective July l, and
Whereas, this wage cut is an at
tempt on the part of the Wall Street
owners of the railroads to solve their
financial miSmanagement of the rail-
roads at the expense of the rail-
road workers; it will mean taking
$3.50, 100000 annually out of the pock-
cts of the railroad workers and hand
ing it over to the railroad stock and
bondholders in interest and profits,
and will further reduce their already
low standard of living, and
Whereas, railroad employment has
been reduced over so percent since
1920 with fully one-third of those
now employed working part time,
and
Whereas, the plans of the railroad
companies to cut wages and reduce
forces is an effort to sabotage the
Recovery Program of President
Roosevelt which has as its aim the
unemployment of more workers, the
raising of wages and the increasing
of the buying power of the people,
and
Whereas, the railroads, in the As
ISOLATION of the American Railways,
are united in one national organiza-
ton, and through the kept press and
radio, are organizing their forces
throughout the country and seeking
to influence public opinion in favor
of wage cuts, and
Whereas, to insure the defeat of
these wage-cutting plans, the officers
and members of the FL standard rail-
way organizations must be equally
united, aroused to the danger con-
fronting them and stand as one single
unit against the companies, and
Whereas, this wage cut demand
on the part of the railroad owners
is of the most tremendous import
ance, not only to the railroad work.
ers, but to the entire labor move
ment; if the railroads succeed in
cutting the wages of the railroad
workers, it opens the doors to wage
cuts generally in all industries; on
the other hand, if the railroad work
ers succeed in defeating this cut, it
will be victory of major importance
and may bring a stop to the wage
cutting plans that the big employers
in other industries have in mind,
Therefore, be it resolved, by this

A Garden Club

A Garden Club
A garden club will ever be
An aid to a community
Where women's hands set beauty
free;
Where women's hearts and minds
design
Bright plans for poisoning tree and
vine.
That loveliness may lift and shine,
That blowing petals may efface
Some barren, ugly, HOPELESS space
And make of it thing of grace;
That trees and shrubs and hedges may
Transform an unattractive way
Into a park where children play.
A garden club serves anywhere
AS women loose with loving care
New life and color on the air.
