second Unit Needed
1T wipes out the deficit on the
first unit of the women's Residence
hall and opens the way TO complete
the 100000 program approved by
the trustees, Our first great need
Is construction OF the second unit
to complete the Women's Residence
hall. All the reservations in the
first unit were taken three weeks
before the college opened in
September and there is now a wait
ing list which justifies construction
of the second unit as soon as pos
sible.
Another immediate need at the
college is a Mems Residence hall.
l do not know Of any investment
that viii yield such large returns
in character and citizenship as
money put into buildings TO house
young men and women on the col
lege campus. We are hoping that
this need will be recognized so that
before another year passes we will
be able to adequately provide for
the increasing number Of students
who desire to live on the campus
Besides the $4,000 Christmas
check, several smaller contribu-
tions, one Of $1,000 have been
made to the building fund. Other
contributions are expected around
the first of the year, DIR. Todd
said.

COMMENT ON WORLD EVENTS

on the little Baltic nations as "mu-
tual assistance pacts," set new rec
ord for gall.
The treaties, as all the world knows,
make Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania
virtual Soviet protectorates.
Yet Molotoff has the nerve to ex-
press wonderment that Finland should
be unwilling to accept a similar
treaty"
The Firms have the same suspicion
of Soviet Russia that the hen has of
the fox, when Sir Reynard comes
proferring protection" and profess
ing undying affection for all the hen
tribe.
After seeing what Russia did to
the Baltic nations, Finland would be
stupid indeed if it welcomed Russian
demands with open arms
In an editorial headed Expert, .
the Washington Daily News points
out that we have just lost real ex-
pert on neutrality. 1t says:

WATCH PRICES!

The outlook for prices is vital to
union members, as soaring prices
could easily more than offset wage
gains resulting from business and in
dustrial improvement
A rapid rise in prices of food and
other necessaries could cancel work
ers' increasing income and keep buy
ing power at its present low level, :"
the American Federation of Labor
points out, in urging union members
to watch prices and report any undue
increase to federation headquarters.
The federation declares there has
apparently been price profteering in
some of the recent price increases and
says that by price profteering it
means raising prices more than
enough to cover legitimate costs"
Then the federation goes on to say
that union members can perform an
important service by reporting any
undue price increases in goods they
buy and by emphasizing that there is
no reason for runaway prices, which
this paper pointed out some weeks
ago.
There is no shortage of food in the
United States, and supplies Of prac-
tically all important staples are
ample" the federation says. Except
in cases where prices are below pro-
duction costs, there can be no excuse
for large increases.

WAR WON'T SOLVE
UNEMPLOYMENT

W.P. A. Commissioner F. C. Har-
rington warns that many Americans
still are expecting too much from the
European war, especially in the mat
ter of new employment. The Amer
lean Federation of Labor sounds the
same warning in its current survey
of business.
81 do not wish to minimize any
possibilities of increased private en-
ployment from any source" Com
missioner Harrington said recently at
Chicago. "In the last two months
employment has increased more than
half million.

APPEAL RULING in
DONNELLY CASE

st. Louis (ILNS) Counsel for the
International Ladies Garment Work
ers' Union has filed an appeal in the
U. S. Circuit Court of Appeals from
court order of U. S. District Judge
Andrew Miller forbidding them from
interfering with the company union
of the Donnelly Garment Company, or
it's customers.
The file contained 3,630-page rec
ord of proceedings in the case, which
has been in the courts since July 5,
1887.
The Donnelly Company, Kansas
City dress-making concern, obtained
a temporary restraining order against
the union In 1887, In the court of
U. S. District Judge Merrill E. Otis
in Kansas City The union carried
it's appeal to the Supreme Court,
which refused to consider it on
grounds Of no jurisdiction.
In June, 1898, Judge Caskie Collet
granted motion to reopen the case,
then disqualified himself. Judge
Miller, of North Dakota, handed down
a permanent restraining order early
this year.
1t was this order which has just
been appealed to the Circuit Court
of Appeals,

THEY EVOLVE INTO DIPLOMATS

"Do you know what happens to
little boys who tell lies :" asks mother
of her young hopeful.
Eyes, mother, they travel for half
fare" answers young hopeful, accord
ing to a story not so new.
Young hopefuls might also have
answered with truth that little boys
who tell lies grow up to be diplomats,
with the most accomplished entering
the diplomatic services of Nazi Ger
many, Fascist Italy and Soviet Rus
sia.

WHAT NEXT?

Subdividing offices and partitioning
shops and factories become simple,
low-cost operation with new movable
partition walls of asbestos-cement
composition. Connectors are said to
make dismantling and relocation as
simple as original erection. The walls
are only one and three-quarters inch
thick but possess high degree Of
resistance to noise and fire.

VITAL STATISTICS
OFFICIALS TO AID

Washington, D. C. (ILNS). Regis
trars of vital statistics in six states
have agreed to assume Immediately
the responsibility of notifying the
Social Security Board of the death
of any person to whom social Sc
curity account number has been is
sued, the board announces. The six
states are New Hampshire, Mime
sofa, Rhode Island, Kentucky, Mis-
sissippi, and Florida,
The board expects similar action
will be taken by the registrars in all
other states early in 1910. 1t stated
that it believed the cooperative ac-
tion Of the registrars would facilitate
prompt payment of benefits to sur
viving members of an insured work
er's family,
Amendments to the Social Security
Act provide not only for the payment
Of retirement insurance to industrial
and commercial wage earners but,
under certain conditions, to his widow
and children also The board said
that before the benefits provided for
survivors can be determined and paid,
it must, of course, have legal proof
of the death of the insured worker.
The plan now being put into effect,
the board stated, has the approval of
the state public-health officers. 1t
provides for the immediate transmit
tai to the board of modified death
certificate which will be entitled
"Proef of Death" This will show the
full name of the deceased worker, the
place of death, and his social security
account number.

WARNING ISSUED BY A. F. OIL.
AGAINST HEIGHTENED WORK WEEK

"The forty-hour week is now estab-
lished by union agreement over wide
area of American industry. This
hour schedule must be maintained. 1t
is unthinkable that employers who
have any conception of their respon-
sibility for the general economic well
fare would ask their workers to ac-
cept longer work hours while there
are still 100000 unemployed. While
such things have happened in times
of rising business, labor is deter
mined that this shall not happen to-
day. We are determined that in
creasing production shall be permit
ted to put the unemployed to work
in private industry and eliminate the
need for relief.
w. p. A. Workers should Be
Transferred to Private Industry
"Thus far, employment gains in the
last year have been no more than
enough to offset the cuts in w. P. A.
rolls. In the year ending August,
1889, 100000 have been dropped
from w. P. A. and 100000 have
been added to the payrolls Of private
industry, leaving 100000 still on
w. P. A. on August 80, 1889.
"To get these w. P. A. workers
back to work in private industry and
to re-employ those who have no work
of any kind-this is our first task as
production rises. Labor is confident
that far-sighted employers will recog-
nize their responsibility.
''The tragedy of Europe has dislo-
Gated the worlds commerce. 1t can
not be permitted to dislocate the or
derly adjustments achieved in Amer
lean industry"
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1939-11-10

Benefits of labor organization, once
enjoyed, are not forgotten by the
workers, though the organization it
self may have vanished. The Nazis
are learning this fact, to their grief
and anger.
The international Transport Work
ers' Federation reports that drastic
wage cuts, speed-up of work and other
exploitation of labor under the Hitler
regime, especially since the war be-
gan, are making the German workers
keenly the comparatively
good conditions won by the trade
unions in former years. The Nazis
are we'll aware of the workers mood
and the Berlin "Treuhander der Ar
belt" warns sternly against the work
ers remembering former trade union
ist methods and imagining they can
turn the scarcity of labor to account
and exact the highest possible wages.
But the flood of Nazi measure hos
tile to the workers is helping to ere
ate popular front of despair anc
misery, the Transport Workers Fed.
Grafton says. 1t adds:
"In the struggle Tor their daily
bread the Nazi workers, the cham
pions of liberty, the friends of peace
are united in one front. Open re
sistance is not yet feasible but the!
still have one weapon: for lov
wage, slow work; they will only jus
do precisely what they must but NJ
more. And every bit of work lef
undone is one obstacle more to Hit
ler's war of plunder."
Premier Molotoff of Russia, il
