Fields, whose home and printing Of

and Mrs. Genevieve Tschiffely, 34l6
Thirty-fourth street NV, precipi-
tated sensational row by hammer
ing mo trespassing" signs into the
smooth, new lawn in front of the
post Office and ordering all and sun
dry to get off our property"
Threatened with Arrest,
Then. after engaging in a pushing
battle with P. c. Wroe, construction
superintendent of the new structure,
and being threatened with arrest by
Chief Charles M. Orme of the Mont
gomery County Police, they Gained
down and spent the remainder of the
afternoon exchanging quips with
newspapermen and explaining their
claims to any one who cared to
listen.
So intent were they on their quest
that they didn't bother about lunch
Loudly and firmly they stood their
ground in front of the post Office
throughout the long afternoon.
They watched, without cheering,
parade of dignitaries to the dedi-
catory platform on the courthouse
lawn across the street. They ig-
nored the program of speeches,
spending most of their time repeat
ing over and over again their claims
that the Government has not &C
quired a clear title to the post Office
site because they and two other
heirs have received nothing from
condemnation proceedings.
The sisters earlier had threat
ened TO trip any one who stepped
on the ground on which they once
romped and played as children when
they were living in Grandfather
Fields house. But then they con-
tented themselves with noting the
names of persons they recognized
going into the building. They said
they would swear out warrants
charging trespassing against every
one they recognized.
Chauffeur Sent Home.
One group of visitors, which in
cluded States Attorney Ben G.
Wilkinson and Vivian and Joseph
B. Simpson, counsel for the Mont
gomery County Board Of Commits
sioners, stopped to ask the sisters
if they could enter.
Just help yourself" Mrs. Tschif-
fely replied.
The sisters chauffeur, Charles
Perkins, colored. had been sent
back home shortly after the fracas
on the post Office lawn-along with
a hatchet which Mrs Tschiffely used
to give Supt. Wroe a rap on the
knuckles during struggle over one
of the mo Trespassing" signs.
Along about Sis. shortly after the
ceremonies ended with a speech by
Fourth Assistant Postmaster Gen
eral Smith w. Purdum. Mrs. VIM
salts young daughter. Genevieve,
drove up in a car But the sisters
weren't ready to 60.
Leaving their posts for the first
time, they strolled over to the speak

newspapermen and a score of on
lockers. There they collared Albert

RELIGIOUS FREEDOM

In a pamphlet called "Religious Lib
erty in the United States Today the
American Civil Liberties Union has
assembled the facts in regard to the
present protection of and restraints on
religious freedom. Since the American
and French Revolution the tendency
has been toward less stress upon the
old toleration and more upon effectual
freedom and equality. Yet intolerance
beyond the reach of law still prevails,
as was demonstrated in the national
election of 1928. Still, the country
seems to be becoming more tolerant
and there is more unity among the
adherents of different religions in be-
half Of the rights of all.
1t will be noticed, however, that in
some states complete freedom of con-
science is restricted. Members of GER
tain religious sects have conscientious
objections against saluting the flag
Their children may not go to school
federation is plant of slow growth
Yet it grows. Any old person of good
memory can tell you that. New in
tolerances may be expected to turn up,
make their little hour of noise and
disappear. But, as our pamphlet says,
"On the whole, the restraints are
slowly giving way to larger free
dom."-(From the New York Times)

ORGANIZATION SAFEGUARDS LABOR'S
Buying POWER

|THE purchasing power of working men and
women. depends on their wages. Their living
standards are also hinged to the contents of their
pay envelopes One of the major functions of the
unions affiliated with the American Federation of
Labor is to safeguard the buying power of the
workers by throwing the strength of unionism
around wages and keeping them at decent stand
ards. The success of trade unionism in this field
is set forth in the current issue of the Monthly
Survey of Business of the American Federation of
Labor. In an instructive discussion of "WOrkers'
Buying Power" the Survey says:
Because wage levels have held, maintenance
of workers buying power has been strong un-
derlying force for recovery in the 1888 recession
and 1889 revival. The income of non-farm work
ers this year has been we'll above last year. 1t has
averaged So 7O7 900 per month as compared to
1865, 100000 last year IN the first five months
and $3 792, 100000 in 1887 (same period). Work
ers income this year has been per cent above last
year.
Cost of living however is nearly 2 per cent
below 1888 SO that buying power of non-farm
workers has averaged per cent above last year.
'"The gain in workers buying power, together
with more liberal spending of other groups, has
lifted consumer buying per cent above last year;
and because inventories are low and production
last year Jagged behind buying, this years per
cent gain in sales to consumers has lifted pro-
ductiOn of consumers goods lO.5 per cent above
1888.
"Thus the strength of workers buying power,
due chiefly to maintenance of wages and partly
to increased WPA, relief and unemployment COM
pensation, is responsible for the vigor of retail
sales this year, which is cited as a basic factor
in the present upturn.
workers buying power in 1889, when ad-
justed for changes in living costs, is exactly the
same as in 1887 (frst five months) Total con-
sumer purchases however are still per cent be-
low 1887 probably because other groups are not
buying quite so literally"

THE TRANSIENT UNEMPLOYED PROBLEM

THE physical inability of large numbers of the
transient unemployed to perform hard manual
work and the difficulty of providing work suitable
for them is a problem that confronts administra-
tors of work relief funds in every county.
Frequently this lack of physical strength is due
to- the fact that the transients have been denied
to earn the necessities of life and prop
er nourshment while living in idleness forced upon
them. Definite proof of this condition was given
in recent statement by Hon. Norman Hipe La
Dor Minister of the Province of Ontario, Canada.
Mr.. Hpel reported that the experience of On
tario with transient labor has been "most disap-
pointing" for the reason that the majority of
those registered for heavy farm work were found
to be physically incapable of doing the work usual
ly required of hired help on farms.
With regard to the physical condition of the
transient jobless Mr.. Hipel said that of 116 who
had recently applied for heavy farm work only 81
were sufficiently well nourished to pass the medi-
cal examination, and out of that number 20 were
not even able to do light farm work.

BEES IN THE: BUG

A queen, a few days ago, invaded
the BUG Columbus local office and
had the staff torn between fear and
curiosity.
This queen bee, followed by thous-
ands of subjects, swarmed down to
the auto bumper of Superintendent
Herman Merz of the Columbus OSES
office.
"What to do?" moaned the Colum-
bus jobfinding chief with arms raised
protectingly. Merz is no apiarist. He
hollored for help.
And right then sweet Fate came to
the rescue of Herman Merz. For sitting
IN the Columbus job office was Chand-
Ter Young, 1909 Gustavas Lane. He
was an applicant for work. He had
learned about queens and other bees
at Ohio State University.
Young heard Merz's plea and sprung
to action. He put the queen in box.
Then he deposited the remaining bees
therein by the handful. A skilled bee
handler, he soon had the migratory
queen, her drones and workers hived
and hopefully happy in their new
packing-box home. 1t was just 20
minute job for Chandler Young.
That done, the OSES referred Mr..
Young to paying job of landscaping
the delicate epidermis of exclusive Ar
lington's greensward. He got work!
Yes, Mr.. Young got a job-and
swarm of bees he didn't expect; Merz
had the satisfaction of not getting
stung; the OSES found another job
for q worker.

GRACE ABBOTT
(From Washington Daily New

FROM washington Ddlly INeWS)
Death has cut short the brilliantly
useful career of Miss Grace Abbott.
To call her one of Americas greatest
women is an inadequate tribute to the
effectiveness, vision and courage with
which she served the mothers and
children of this country.
For IA years, under four presiden-
tial administrations, she was chief OF
the United States Children's Bureau.
1t is literally true that tens of thous-
ands of citizens owe their lives to her
fight against infant and maternal NOR
tality. That and her struggles to curb
child labor and juvenile delinquency
made her internationally famous. She
dared President Hoover's displeasure
when she battled to preserve the in
dependent Children's Bureau, and thus
probably sacrificed an opportunity to
become Secretary of Labor and the
first woman Cabinet member
Miss Abbott earned the right to an
unusual memorial. The one most fit
ting-the one she would most have de-
sired-would be ratification of the
Child Labor Amendment. She was a
leader of that cause for many years,
she lived to see the U. S. Supreme
Court declare that the amendment is
still vital, and she died in the hope
that a few more states would soon
ratify it and SO make it part of the
Federal Constitution.

SUBSIDY FOR BRITISH AGRICULTURE
IGNORES LAND WORKERS

THE tendency of national parliaments domin-
ated by property owning interests to ignore
lation affecting agriculture and industry was re-
Gently emphasized in the British House of Com
mons when the Agricultural Development Bill,
popularity called the agricultural subsidy bill,
was under consideration.
Representatives of Organized Labor pointed
out that although the bill provides for further
subsidies amounting to at least 95,50O,O0O year
for British oat and barley growers and sheep pro-
ducers in all of it's thirty clauses there was not
a word about the land worker.
Labor spokesman said that though they were
anxious to establish the agricultural industry on
sure foundation, they opposed a bill which ignored
the necessity of improving the lot of the agricul-
tural workers. Although brought forward by the
Government for the alleged purpose of improving
agriculture the bill handed out millions of pounds
in subsidies to British farmers, but contained no
mention of wages, housing, social amenities or
any of the needs of the agricultural laborers.
