PRESIDENT URGES
UNITY OF LABOR
AND FARMERS

Washington, D. C. (ILNS) Speak
ing Labor Day at Denton, Nd, to an
open-air audience, President Roosevelt
gave strong Endorsement to Con-
gressman David J. Lewis, New Deal
candidate for the Democratic nomi-
nation for the Senate He listed among
many other good deeds done by Lewis
in public life the fact that as a young
man in the Maryland legislature,
Lewis had introduced and put through
the first workmen's compensation law
ever passed in the United States.
President Roosevelt emphasized par
ticularly the fact that farmers and
wage earners of the cities have the
same interests as well as the same an
cestry. Efforts are being made, said
the President, to break up this nat
ural common feeling, and set farmers
against workers, and vice versa.
america always has had-and
America still has said the President,
"a small minority who assume that
there are not enough good things to
give the minority all its wants and at
the same time to give the rest of
America the overwhelming majority
Of America a humane and modern
standard of 6vino
But at the same time, all over this
country, the unity of interest of all
common men and women warm
hearted, simple men and women, will
ing to live and let live, whether in
factory or on farm, grows steadily
clearer and more evident"

Unemployment To
Last Until Hours Are
Cut, Says Green

Atlantic City, N. ]. (ILNS) I'm
employment will not end until Amer
lean industry adopts the six-hour day
and 30-hour week, President William
Green Of the American Federation of
Labor said
Addressing the United Association
Of Journeymen Plumbers and Steam
Filters of the United States and Can
ada, in convention here, Green said
the tonly remedy for unemployment
is to absorb the idle workers in pri-
vate industry"
"The government cannot go on ap-
propriating P. w A. and w. P. A.
funds above its annual income" he
said 1T can do this only temporarily
in the hope that private industry will
take up the burden, and that process
has been very slow.
"The American Federation of Labor
has called upon the employers, the
government administrators and Con-
gress to Immediately put into effect
the six-hour day and 30-hour week
and until we meet that issue we
will have unemployment. 1t means
more equitable distribution Of the
available work and maintain that
every citizen is entitled to share in
that work"

REFLECTIONS OF
A "FRESHMAN''
(By Representative Bruce Barton Of
New York in Redbook Magazine)

| was surprised to discover how
little difference there is between Re-
publicans and Democrats. Each party
includes within its own ranks men of
different economic faiths - radicals
and conservatives. Seldom does an
important vote divide the House along
purely party lines; nearly every cru
cial vote cuts right across. The prob
lens of today are not political, but
economic.
AS to the courage of Congressman,
they are about as brave on the average
and about as cowardly as men in any
other walk of life. Certainly 95 per
cent of the members of Congress want
to do what is best for the people of
the United States. Given a reasonable
chance for free play, they will make
the right decisions. The trouble is
not with them, but with the people
back home
The American voters have formed
the habit Of judging a representative
not by what he can give to the nation,
but by what he can get out of the pub
lie treasury for his own district. In
their hearts, Congressman hate this,
but the voters insist. They organize
themselves into minority pressure
groups and enforce their demands with
the threat of defeat at the polls.
The cure for the faults of Congress
may be, in part, better Congressman
though | am frank to say | like them
and have a genuine respect for them
just as they are But the deeper and
only permanent cure is a change OF
heart in the American people, spir-
itual revival which will give US the
same sort of patriotism we had during
the World War, when we forgot all
about getting from the government
and asked ourselves only What car
| give?"

GREEN TELLS /. T.U.
HOURS OF WORK
MUST BE CUT

Birmingham, Ala. (ILNS) .-Presi-
dent Green of the A. F. of L. told the
eighty-second convention of the In
ternational Typographical Union that
the A. F. of L. will seek for 3O-hour
work week as means of combating
the economic depression.
"The old 8-hour day is a thing of
the past" said Mr.. Green. "We have
moved beyond that. The work day
must be shortened and the work week
reduced"
He proposed six-hour day and
five-day week, with a maintenance of
present wages.

Waitin' for the nights to chill.

To let i'm run a while;
You could-a hearn i'm bay

He shore does love to yodel!
About possum and the coon,
And he's got it in his noodle
They're hidin' in the moon.
So I've started in a-prayin'
For frost or early snow;
And from the way he's bayin'

History On Parade Floats

Boston (ILNS) ).-The most striking
entity in the 1888 Labor Day parade

tors Union, with 800 in the line of

used on trucks to trace the history Of
the stage from the Indians to the cur
rent age. Noted stage figures Of the
past were impersonated, and dress
fashions of the stage, feminine and
masculine, were also depicted. 1t was
the first time the history Of union
lied profession had been depicted 50

YOUR DAILY BREAD

"You never miss the water til the
well runs dry" is truism which can
be aptly applied to our modern life.
There are many things which are of
vital Importance to US every day, yet
we have grown so accustomed to hav-
ing them always available that we ac-
cept them casually, and without
thought of how much they mean to
us, and what life without them would
be like.
Chief among our daily necessities is
bread, and here in America we con-
sumo over 10 billion loaves yearly.
It's a very simple matter to get bread
"a telephone call, purchase from
the daily delivery truck, casual stop
off at the retail shop after an after
noon of bridge. Bot consider what it
would mean to you if you learned that
tomorrow there would be no bakers!
1t has been SO many years since
American housewives made their own
bread that such a situation would
amount to veritable household ca
lamity. In the United States as a
whole, today, over $3.50 of our bread
comes from the nations bakers, and
in metropolitan areas the figure
reaches 98qo.
Perhaps you remember hearing how
Colonial housewives made bread They
had to prepare their own yeast of
malt, hops and potatoes, and the ac-
tual baking process sometimes took
more than two days.
The mere thought of such arduous
labor involved in supplying the fam
ily's bread is enough to make the
modern housewife pale.
Behind the loaf of bread that APP
pears on your table is fascinating
and romantic story, for, throughout
the ages, bread has been the staff Of
life for all people of all nations.
No one can say how old an industry
bread-making is, but we do know that
bread was probably the first prepared
food known to man.
The ancient Egyptians first organ
lied baking as an industry, and later
the Greeks improved upon baking
processes and techniques, and became
the most skillful bakers of their day
In fact, it is said that they developed
72 different kinds of bread by adding
milk, honey, oil, cheese and wine!
Juvenal, who lived from about 60
lao A. D., in his famous satire on
Rome, said that the Romans required
only two things of life bread and cir
cuses! The Romans developed the
first bakers college, and made exten-
sive experimental studies into baking
processes.
In early England, housewives made
the sign of the cross over their loaves,
to keep them from being beWitched,
or from turning out heavy"
The first wheat crop in North Amer
lea was harvested in Mexico in 1880
from grain planted by a servant of
Cortez, and the Pilgrims brought

LONDON, Nov. 1.-THE Stock Ex-
change waited for Wall Street action
on transatlantic shares today and
most of them worked in a narrow
price range in inactive trading
U. S. Steel, with a gain of more than
a point, was an exception.
Chrysler, General Motors and In
ternational Telephone improved
slightly. Off a bit were American
Telephone, Anaconda, Santa, Fe
Eastman Kodak and Brazilian Trac-
ption.
Imperial Airways rose 3 shillings
following the announcement in the
House of Commons it would be
merged with British Airways.
Foreign exchanges were active de-
spite the Paris and New York holi-
j. days. The equalization fund sold
dollars freely in an effort to check
the rise of the American unit, which
developed, it was said, through
nervous continental buying in con-
nection with a movement of funds
to America. The dollar, however,
improved 2. of a cent at 474 to the
pound. The French control held the
franc steady at 1875 to the pound.

other services, which have Chest
memberships. Hospitals will receive
funds only on a contract basis. The
Chest does not have to make con-

DIR. Abram Simon, rabbi Of the
Washington Hebrew Congregation
and former president Of the Board
of Education:
II feel 1t is too late now and GER
tainly unworthy to bring into the
Community Chest campaign fight
against the hospitals. I haven't
seen the stickers, and my inclination
would be to ignore them. The issue
can be brought up later and con-
sidered without prejudice"
Raymond B. Keech, vice chairman
of the Public Utilities Commission:
"It seems simply ridiculous to me
to tie up a contribution with COL
lateral issues. The confusion that
results is always detrimental. There
are already a sufficient number of
purposes to be selected on Com
munity Chest pledge card to satisfy
any ones desire"

"It is regrettable that an issue of
this kind has to be developed at
this time because of the disastrous
effect it will have on the Community
Chest campaign"
Joseph P. Tumulty, prominent
Washington lawyer and secretary to
the late President Wilson:
ANY association or group that will
allow its spokesmen to hamper or
obstruct the fine, humane activities
of the Community Chest, is engag-
ing in a campaign that can only
bring disaster to those who by un-
worthy methods of that kind seek
to advance their own cause at the
expense of great charitable objec-
tives. We hear of these despicable
methods in political campaigns. I
can only view them with alarm when
they are resorted to by selfish de-
signing persons"

former District Commissioner: Il feel
the Community Chest has done q
most magnificent work for Wash

Affairs and the Variety Club: II

action of persons who allow any
anonymous group to use them as
catspaws to nullify their genuine
Community Chest contributions"
Elwood Street, director of the
Board of Public Welfare, former
director of the Community Chest,
and now a member of its board of
trustees:
"This is thoughtless per-
formance on the part OF the spon-

"It Is a misguided effort. The hos
