Public Health League
Sends Reminder Cards

Christmas Seal reminder cards have
been mailed to 54OO county residents,
Officials of the Columbiana County
Public Health League announced to-
day. Reminder cards were sent to
persons who had received Christmas
Seal letters, but who thus far had
made no response to the appeal.
Sixteen thousand Christmas Seal
letters were mailed to Columbiana
County residents on December first.
Replies have been received from 10,-
GOO contributors, it was announced.
In some cases reminder cards were
sent to persons who had already made
their contribution. This error has oc-
cured because of unknown duplica-
tions in the Christmas Seal files,
Health League officials stated.
S6,5O0.O0 has already been received
from the Christmas Seal sale. A goal
of 100000 was set for the 1899 Seal
SALE The goal will probably be reach
ed now that the reminder cards have
been mailed, Health League officials
added

loss in pay.
A. F. of L. Complaint Is Against
Administration of Labor Act
Mr. Green thus summarized his po-
sition:
"We will stand just where we did
in the beginning as friends of the act,
a defender of the act. We are seek
ing to protect it's fundamental princi-
Piles against change.
"But our complaint is against the
administration of the act. We believe
that the act has been administered
contrary to both its spirit and it's let
ter. We charge the board with NAL
administration, with bias, with an at
tempt to apply their own peculiar
philosophy in the disposition of cases
rather than the plain provisions of the
act.
"The board in our judgment is any,
thing but judicial body, and we are
of the opinion that any board appoint
ed, clothed with authority to admin
lister this act, ought to administer it
in a careful, wise, unbiased, judicious
way"

CIVIL SERVICE
EMPLOYE LOSES
Supreme Court Finds He
Was Not on Registered
List" So He Is Out

Columbus, Ohio (OLNS).-Joseph
Stein went to work for the State
Highway Department in Akron as an
unskilled laborer and finally became a
truck driver until one cold winter day
in February, 1899, when he received
an official notice that his services were
no longer required.
Mr.. Stein realized that he, along
with a lot Of other employees, were
victims of change Of administration
at Columbus. Others were bringing
suit in the courts contending that they
were under protection Of civil service.
He too brought suit.
The Ohio Supreme Court at Column
bus last week decided STEMS case.
There was no question but what he
was in the classified service but the
court found that the civil service law
requires unskilled laborers, when they
are employed to register and vacan-
ces in the unskilled service shall be
filled by appointment from lists regis
tered by the Commission.
Stein had not registered and there
fore he was not protected by Section
487-17, General Code, said the court
in an opinion. Therefore he could not
be reinstated to his position.
There are several hundred of these
civil service cases pending in the
courts of the state and this decision
in STEMS case may indicate what's go
ing to happen to those situated as
Stein was.
The moral to this story is: Protect
your rights, whether they be in civil
service, unemployment insurance
workmen's compensation or whatnot
Ignorance of the law or civil service
red tape won't excuse you when you
get into court.

TO FIGHT FOR
PENSION FUNDS

Columbus, 0. (OLNS).-Governor
Bricker in Washington last week in
dicated Ohio officials will take legal
steps to recover $1,300,O00 due from
the Federal Government for old age
pension payments i'm October, 1893.
This appropriation, withheld by the
Social Security Board, was voted by
Congress in the jenkins bill and We
toed by the President recently. The
state officials contend the Federal
Government has no authority to with
hold the amount due the state.
The President in upholding the So
cial Security Board in refusing to pay
the amount contends that this is the
only weapon the Board has to punish
or prevent shenanigans committed by
states in the handling Of old age as
sistance funds.

STATE

 Starting Wednesday the State will usner in a gala holiday show with that fascinating, tantalizing and dangerous Bette Davis return re- turning to the screen in "The Let ter" w. Somerset Maugham's great est drama of 8 woman's heart.
 It is becoming automatic that each of Bette Davis performances should top the one which preceded 1t. It happened with Dark Victory" "The Old Maid" "All This and Haem Too" and according to all advance reports, she rides to even greater glory in her newest success, "The Letter"
 The film concerns itself with a strange story. It tells of a beloved and sheltered woman who murders a man, murders him in cold blood, pumping his body full of bullets un- til her husbands gun is empty, Why did she do 1t? Well, she tells her husband and her lawyer that she did it to defend her honor. But 1t seems there was a letter a letter in her handwriting address ed to the murdered man, and now in the possession of his widow, an EuraSiap woman.
 These are the ingredients of the drama. Bette Davis is the central figure about which it revolves. Her bert Marshall will be seen in the role of her husband; James Step henson takes the part of the law yer; and Gale Sondergaard is said to turn in an excellent performance as the Eurasian woman.
 Besides the principals already mentioned, the cast includes Frieda Inescort, Sen Yung, Bruce Lester and Elizabeth Earl.
 The second big holiday hit will be singy, swingy, romancable pie ture Dancing on A Dime" starring Grace Mcdonald, the new dancing star who brought Broadway to her feet. Five hit unes, swell story and a giant cast of screen favorites make this one picture you must see. Robert Paige, Virginia Dale, Will liam Frawley, Peter Hayes, Lillian Cornell, Eddie Quillan and Frank Jenks round out the cast.

POPE PLUS GOES
 INTO EXCLUSION
Meditates on War Evils, Prays for Peace for En=
 tire World

Vatican City, Nov. 25.-UP)- Pope Plus went into a weeks seclu- sion today to mediate on the evils of war and to pray for peace.
 Sunday he made his strongest ap- peal for peace since the start of the conflict. It was in the form of 21- minute homily during a mass for war dead in St. Peters basilica be- fore 10000 persons. His voice uuiy- ering whenever he mentioned the World war, he made it clear that he had abandoned hope of man-made peace and exhorted all to pray to God to intercede.
 Avoiding partisanship but address ing humanity, the Pope said with tears in his eyes that the destruction and violence of war had increased rather than lessened.
 It was the 30th time the Pope, through special prayers, homilies, radio addresses and talks during his public audiences, had appealed for peace. Many Vatican quarters sug- gested it was his final appeal as he reportedly feared there was no fur ther basis for peaceful settlement. Henceforth, it was said, the pontiff will sponsor religious services and worldwide sessions of prayer to les sen the horrors of war and ameli- crate the condition of prisoners.
 All pomp was eliminated from the ceremony. Contrary to custom, the Pope did not use the gestatorial chair and walked to the altar down the center aisle. Silver bugles which usually herald him, were missing. The parishioners had been instruct ed to refrain from the customary applause when the Pope enters the basilica.
 The Pope spoke in Italian over a worldwide radio hookup. The speech then was re-broadcast in Spanish, German, English and French,

Farmers Work Together
To Keep Soil at Home

After many single-handed at
tempts to stop the blowing Of good
top soil from their fields, farmers
Of Greeley county, Kansas, back in
1887, saw that they would have to
get together in the fight to keep
their soil at home. If single farm
er tried to hold his soil down by
listing field, the top soil from an
unlisted field adjoining would blow
over it and cover up his work.
With the help Of farm leaders in
the county. the farmers organized a
countrywide campaign to use AAA
conservation practices to get all the
land in the county listed at the same
time, and protected by cover crops
and strip-cropping.
The job was hard, but the farmers
were for any plan that would break
the force of the wind and keep their
soil covered. When the job start
ed, each farmer had an average Of
5000 acres Of land to list, and they
kept at it-literally day and night
until 1t was finished.
To make the plan thoroughgoing,
the county organization adopted a
rule that no farmer could get an
AAA payment unless he had all his
crop land either in cover crops such
as Sudan grass or sorghums, or in
strip-cropping-a strip of cover to
slow down the wind, then a strip of
wheat or fallow, and then another
strip of cover crops.
Last year, with six times as much
land in cover crops and strip-crop-
ping as in 1896, FIVE times as many
acres in summer fallow, half as
many acres in wheat, and twice as
many acres Of feed crops for their
live stock, these farmers reported
that they had the wind hazard I'M
der control. If they continue what
they have started, they believe that
nature will complete the job.
