Of Locomotive Engineers, the Order
of Train Conductors and the Inter-
national Machinists Association ex-

Canada. All the railroad conduc-
tors, enginemen and firemen in the
employment of Canada railroads
are members of railroad unions
whose headquarters are in the Uni
ted States of America, and rail-
road labor organizations that in
clude workers in Canada, but are
not international in scope, are re-
garded as dual in character, and
thus the Brotherhood is fulfilling
its mission and mandate of inter

It is expected that within the
next few months, a majority of the

MART THOMAS

You deserve whole lots Of cred
it for the way you conduct the past
time on 22nd and Burdette and the
patience you have with the young
er boys and girls. I have noticed
mainly that no favoritism is shown
to none. They all got to win on
their merits. and the way those
large crowds cooperate with you
and your knowledge of the rules
of the game keep down lots of un-
necessary arguments and make
the games faster also your stern
decisions and rules are we'll heed
ed. Sometimes the boys don't a
gree with you but they don't doubt
you also you are doing more for
the younger generation to develope
muscle and body in making good
clean sportmen out Of them. So
keep it up Martin Thomas. We
are all for you if you don't think
so just look at the huge crowds
and automobiles that gather every
afternoon in closing I am asking
one thing of you please speed up
the games. Darkness caught me
Monday-I'm afraid Of the dark.

I. B. Baumgardner, speaking for
he committee, today stated the
purpose of the Omaha Brewed
Beer Week Celebration is to call
the attention of the public the
important economic contributions
Omaha's three breweries are max
ing to Omaha.
"More than 100000 is distrib-
uted locally every year in p%ayrolls,
taxes and brewery purchases Of
supplies" Mr.. Baumgardner said.
1t was also pointed out that GOO
people are employed by the three
Omaha breweries-Metz, Falstaff
and Storz-and that well over
5000 Omahans are directly DEEPEN
lent upon brewery payrolls.
The committee has learned thai
in other brewing centers such as
Minneapolis, Milwaukee, st. Paul
and St. Louis, more than 80 per
cent of the beer drunk in these
cities is made there. And they
know the result is nor men en-
ployed and greater job security.
"Tho sole purpose of Omaha
Brewed Beer Week." the committee
statement said, SIS to educate O.
maha people to say give me a
local beer when they call for g
drink or a bottle of beer. Omaha
brewed beer ranks exceptionally
high n quality.
eve are not trying to increase
the consumption of beer but We
40 hope to get our friends anC
neighbors in the habit of ordering
the local products.
"And we hope the retailers vii
realize it is to their advantage al
ways to offer local products I'M
less another brand is specified by
the customer.
"If we can do what has been
done in other brewing centers, at
least $50 men will have jobs. And
chat means more work for gro
GERS, coalmen, carpenters, plum
bers, milkmen and everybody else.
"In Minneapolis and st. Paul,
almost neighbor cities, if you call
for a bottle of beer, you always get
local beer unless some other kind
is specified. If that habit can be
established in Omaha at least 100
more men will be employed in our
industry and that means more
men in the box factory, the corn
grit factories, the label factories
and all other business that serves
the great Brewing industry"

Storz Brewing Company; Robert
Drum, president of the Metz Brew
ing Company; and Richard Kneed-
