LAB0R'S PROGRAM FOR JOBS
3,5OO,OOO Jobs on WPA for Able Unemployed
$S,OOO,OOO,OO 900 Fund to Provide These Jobs for Year

The dollars spent on this program will be new life blood in the bust
ness system. They will bring new hope to the jobess. They will save the
Nation. Congress job is to give the people jobs.
Labor advocates these principles:
l. All workers should be employed on work suited to their needs
and sknls.
O. Projects should be socially necessary and productive. That means
housing, slum clearance flood control, building of schools and
hospitals health measures, cultural and white collar projects and voca-
tonal training.
g. Jobs should be given to those who need jobs Honest decent un-
employed workers must not be forced to degrade themselves as paupers.
There must be no means test.
A. Those working part-tme in industry should be given at least
enough extra work to bring their income up to an American standard.
s. The money for this program should be so appropriated as to make
possible the meeting of current needs wherever and whenever they arise.
No more Woodrum amendments that stop the provision of jobs when
emergencies arise.
Labor believes this program will;
l. Start recovery.
q Increase purchasing power, stop human suffering, and save our
people from the terrors of joblessnes and starvation.
3. Enrich the Nation by building things to increase its wealth and the
happiness Of its people.
American Labor Speaks-TO Congress, To Business, To All America
This Nation is in the ninth year Of The Great Depression.
cancer at the heart of our society In this war JOBS ARE BULLETS.
Thirteen million Americans walk the streets today in search of work
but there is no work. Their chance to live by the sweat of their brows is
denied. Their RIGHT TO WORK is ignored.
Congress fahers in its task. The people ask for jobs but Congress
gives them battleships. Congress moves but halfheartedly to meet the
Nations desperate need for JOBS FOR THE PEOPLE. Recovery waits
while Congress debates.
Business cannot use our idle millions. Machines have replaced hands
in the Nations mills. Business goal is profits not plenty. Jobs for the
people are not on the business program.
American labor is the one clear voice. We speak for ALL for Congress,
for the Nation, for recovery THROUGH JOBS. The Nations job is our

'CELLER INTRODUCES BILL
TO LOWER FEES FOR
CITIZENSHIP

NEW YORK.-A bill, H. R. 1907,
ito reduce certain fees in naturaliza-
ton proceedings" has been intro
duced in the House of Representa-
tives by Congressman Emanuel Gel
Ter, of Brooklyn, according to in
formation received here today by
the American Committee for Pro
lection of Foreign Born.
Rep. Celler's bill, H. R. 1907,
would reduce the fee of $3.50 to $40,
usually paid for citizenship papers,
to So. In a statement issued after
he had introduced H. R. 1907, Rep.
Celler says, in part: MOS of these
persons (the 100000 non-citizens)
have done valuable work in helping
to build up this country. They have
supported and educated families of
good citizens; they have paid taxes;
many of them even served their
country in war-but that didn't
make them citizens. 1t is for these
elderly people this bill is intended.
They r now in such straitened cir
cumstances that the difference be-
tween $3.50 and So is a very broad
chasm."

WASHINGTON.-(FP) "A touch
of high comedy was added to the
House when Rep. Finly Gray ID,
Ind, with his long hair and frock
coat and looking like a cartoonist's
dream of a congressman, arose in
dignantly to tell the members of the
House that ~aspersions had been cast
upon his character.
Newspapers, he reported, printed
the story that payment of the sol
diers' bonus was responsible for the
depression and he had voted for the
bonus. What" he demanded of the
House, would the people back in
my district Think"
After having listened with glee for
80 minutes, the Speaker ruled that
Rep. Gray had not proved the af-
fronts to his character and the
gentleman from Indiana sat down,
muttering that he was going to go
on the radio with his complaint.

EVERY MAJOR HIGHWAY TO
BE LOGGED FOR EXACT
MILEAGE

Every major highway in the
United States will be logged for
exact mileage by representatives of
the American Automobile Associa-
ton this coming summer was the
report received by the Montana
Automobile Association, motor divi-
sion of Montanans, Inc, the state
chamber of commerce.
This feature is part of the new
service inaugurated by the A. A. A.
Touring Bureau to give the travel
ing public a more comprehensive
understanding of the roads. The
service will include reports on road
conditions, with detail as to surfaces
and the location of three and four
lane highways; also, it will give a
description of the country through
which the road runs, spot cut-offs,
by-passes and name important points
of interest along the route. A strip
map to the point of interest will be
included, if it is off the main high
way.
The AAA representative will in
spect hotels and eating establish
ments, as far as is possible, and base
his reports entirely on merit. The
Montana representative, driving an
especially equipped car, is expected
in the Helena office of the Montana
Automobile Association, within the
next ninety days.

plan ever proposed to the American
people, and best of all, will keep it
that way.
All other plans propose to change
the system Of government in one
way or another, the Townsend Plan
proposes no such changes. The
present administration is doing all
in its power to reduce unemploy-
ment, they have used every effort
to relieve distress and deserve all
credit for what they have done; the
Townsend Plan will do the job they
have been aiming at and will do it
without the immense outlay of Dor
rowed money.
The General Welfare Act of 1887,
H. R. 4199 (the Townsend Plan),
provides that an annuity, not to ex-
coed 5000 a month to all citizens
over the age of go years; this annu-
ity must be spent in the thirty days
in which it is received for goods or
services; compels annuitants to de-
sist from all gainful employment. In
less than go words there is the solu-
ton of all our economic ills.
To analyze; There are about 7Ha
million people in the United States
who would avail themselves of this
annuity; 4 million of them are now
gainfully employed; 71h million peo-
pie spending annuities from would
make jobs for TX million workers;
4 million quitting jobs would give
Jobs to 4 million more. The money
spent by these workers would create
jobs for millions more; what be-
comes of the unemployment prob
lem? 1t vanishes like dew before
a June sun.
The bill is now in the hands of
the ways and mean committee of
the House of Representatives and a
concerted effort is being made by a
substantial group of congressman to
have it brought on the floor for open
discussion. There are about 1870 or
1876 names on the discharge petition
which requires 218. Our congress
man, Jerry O'Connell, is in the front
on this as on any other movement
for the benefit of the man on the
street." but if you have relatives or
friends in other states, and are in
~terested in seeing this program car
ried out, write them with a request
that they write their congressman to
get behind H. R. 4199. PARK LEA.

With large and calloused hands.
Harsh tobacco and powerful rum
Make him a regular sol Of a gun.

CAST OF CHARACTERS
TRAN Observation-Disclosures,

student nurse. She ran into love
and trouble when she met
DR.. BOB BENCHLEY-hero,
handsome young inferno. He had
trouble, too, keeping up with bril-
liant
DR.. STEPHEN SARGENT
head surgeon. DR.. Sargcnt's prob
lem was something else again.
Yesterday: In moment of
hilarity, Tran prepared a farcial
nursing care report concerning
DR.. Sargent. Everything turns
black before her when he begins
to read it. How did he get it?
CHAPTER y
Tran was never to forget the
horror Of the ten minutes that
followed
In one Sickening flash she had
realized how this thing had come
to happen to her. The morning
before Bcula Tagg had volunteer
ed to carry her nursing care re-
port to Miss Armstrong; office.
And on her desk with it had lain,
forgotten, that farcial report on
the case Of the mythical On"
Now Dr.. Sargent'S clear. faSti-
dious voice was reading it to the
end, smoothly. gravcly. incXOr-
ably. while Tran sat rigid, biting
her cheeks. her eyes growing big
ger and brighter and wider in
her pallid face. When he had fin
ish iShed, his cool blue eyes swept
the faces Of the class, resting for
an impartial fraction Of second
on Trans before passing on.
"AS | believe | told you," he
said. the case is not one that has
come under my professional care
nor, so far as | knew"-he
coughed-"under that of any of
our staff. Therefore | may per-
haps be permitted more frankness
in my comments than | might
otherwise use in discussing the
medical handling Of lease.
The class, fully aware that
there was more to this than met
the naked eye, exchanged furtive
glanceS. Tran measured the dis
lance to the door, but sat still
from sheer motor paralysis.
Il read it to YOU" DR.. Sargent
was going blandly on, because
of several unusual aspects of Of
the report. The first" his lips
twitched slightly-"is the Scrup-
ulous reference to the text with
which the nurse interlardS her
reactions. The second is the amaz-
ing fact that after ten years Of

outsidc-or even of the day he
Tran told herself that this was
all very gratifying and exactly as
she would have chosen; but she
could not help feeling little
piqucd by his punctilOusly profcS~
Sional manner Oh, well, she
supposed she was just one Of
those girls that men kissed and
forgot.
At any rate, it made it much
simplcd to follow the Spartan
road of Sclf-discipline to which
she had dedicated herself.
1t would be gratifying to rec
ord that Tran developed over
night into a perfectly controlled
young nurse who met all Situa
tons with assured poisc. But of
course. since she was Tran. that
could not be true. The occasions
were still too frequent on which
she had to bite her cheeks to
keep from giggling. After helping
her first operation she was hunt
latingly sick at her stomach. And
there was the historic day when
unable to find Il seat in the
operating amphithcater where Dr..
Sargent was to do something very
daring in the way of laparotomies
she climbed to point of want
age in a tree that gave on one OF
the windows. 1t should have been
an instructive afternoon but for
the fact that Tran placed too
much confidence in rotten limb,
and awoke to find herself in bed
with two broken ribs, which, it
seemed, DR.. Benchley had al
ready set and strapped.
When she triep to thank him,
he snapped with a brief return to
the Bob Benchley Tran used to
know, "Oh, Agility, if you would
only stop being such a precious
little IDIOT. If"
Then he turned crimson, broke
off abruptly, gathered up the
stcthoscope he had been using,
and stalked out of the room.
But that hadn't meant any
thing, attire all, it appeared; for
a day or so later Beula Tagg told
Tran that everyone in the hos
pital was talking about DR..
Benchley's affair with Mrs. Matt
land, pretty young widow who
had been patient.
Not that it mattered, for three
times in the last month, Tran had
been alone with a patient when
DR.. Sargent came in. Once he
had even smiled at her and said
"Thanks. That helps lot," when
she had moved a light to better
position for him without being
asked.
1t was one stormy afternoon
late in Trans second year that
the terrible thing happened which
threatened to change Trans
world completely.
