These hearings We're concentrated
on Little Steel on the Republic anc
Youngstown steel companies. Some
Of the things established are:
That the Little Steel strikes of
1897 in these two companies cost
$4,144, 900; of which the compa
nies paid S3,543, 900 and sawed off
the rest on the taxpayers.
That these two companies spent
$14l 900 on munitions during
1887 alone.
That Little Steel, in its cam
paign to get the community on
its side, browbeat clergymen and
boycotted merchants.
That the files of the Republic
Steel Corporation have been
stripped of records of expendi-
lures for munitions, spying, pub

gained these items chiefly because

The eCherry
Tv Where with our
roo Little Hatchet
we tell the truth
about many things, sometimes pro-
foundly. Sometimes Hippantly,
sometimes recklessly.

Central labor unions all over the
nation are buying new homes.
They are putting up new buildings
or buying and renovating old ones.
In either case, they are contributing
to increase of employment and busi-
ness activity.
Duluth, Minnesota, is the latest city
to report move by labor to own an
up-to-date headquarters building.
Duluth is only one of many
planning similar action. There is
long list Of city central bodies
which, in the last IL months, have
either moved into new homes or
taken steps to acquire new quar-
ters.
The labor movement has come OF
age and demands headquarters build
ings in keeping with its high status
in the national life.
Action Of the central bodies is an
indication of the strength and vitality
Of the American Federation of Labor
Of its striving for progress and better
things.
Colorado State Federation of Labor
knows the value of the labor press.
The federation's last convention said
something about the labor press that
if taken to heart by every trade union
ist in America, would benefit the labor
movement immeasurably.
The function of the labor press is
one of the most important activities
OF the movement" said the convention
which went on to point out that the
labor press was the "only medium
through which the people of the state
OF Colorado may be informed of the
true activities of the labor move.

Then the convention placed the fed
Grafton on record as vigorously en-
couraging affiliated units to "givt
more support, morally, physically ane
financially to the labor press of the

Push Frustrated
First OF Month

LONDON, Dec. Is. (UP)-The
Daily Telegraph's Budapest cor
respondent said today the Hun
garian parliament was thrown in
to an uproar last night when In
terror Minister Kerosztes Fischer
revealed that Nazis had attempt
ed a rising on December l to
sieze power.
/ The dispatch quoted Fiscer as
saying that police, learning of the
plans, mobilized at full strength
and used bayonets and rifle butts
on crowds after Nazi rioters re-
fused to disperse, attacked police
with truncheons and knuckle-dus-
ters and held up automobiles.
Two rioters were reported killed
and "A wounded.
The correspondent said there
was much comment on the fact
that the attempted rising had
been concealed for thirteen days.
Man, with the brain he has,
would have advanced but little if
he had not been able to work
with his hands and the opposable
thumb, which enabled him to use
the delicate instrument that he
constructs, must be given credit
with the brain.

tRTICHOKES are in season.
n The globe or French arti-
choke looks like a large unopen-
ed flower bud. The Jerusalem
artichoke looks like small,
gnarled potato. But as we can't
eat both at the same time, let's
cook only the globe artichokes to-
day.
Fresh globe artichokes have
good green color, tightly clinging,
f1eSny leaf scales. They are COM
pact, heavy for their size and
free Of brownish or dark spots. If
the scales spread out and the tips
become hard, the artichoke is
over-mature and will taste strong
when cooked. Store artichokes in
refrigerator in a vegetable box.
incidentally, they are good
source of iron and calcium, min
erals lacking in many diets.
To cook, wash in cold water
and trim off stems, remove some
of the outer leaves and trim the
top. Drop into slightly salted boil
ing water to cover. Simmer 20 to
80 minutes. To test for compile
ton, pull off one of the scales. If
it comes off easily, the artichoke
is usually cooked enough.
Serve Hot or Cold
Serve one artichoke to each
person on separate plate and as
a separate course. If served hot,
serve with it small individual
dishes of melted butter, drawn
butter sauce or Hollandaise sauce.
Cold artichokes, as a salad course,
