Officers Retained
By Local Union l22
Pottery Bowling League Is
Fast Going Out of Busi-
ness In Curnbridqe

Cambridge O.-Local Union No. 122
at recent meeting retained their pre-
vious officers for another six months.
Dales Allison, president; Arthur Fer
ber, recording secretary; Elmer Lewis,
financial secretary; Earl Johnson,
treasurer; Alex Robertson, defense
collector.
President Allison is we'll pleased
with the support and cooperation re-
ceived in the past year and is looking
forward to another good year. The
attendance at the local meetings has
been better than average, each depart
ment being we'll represented. This
makes the meetings much more inter-
esting.
1t seems that the enthusiasm for
bowling has fallen off among the pot
terry workers of our community. Early
in the season we enjoyed one Of the
best bowling leagues in the city, but
of late the attendance has dropped to
the extent that the Pottery League is
no more. However, there are still a
few who make an appearance on each
Tuesday night. 1t is too late to do
something about ito. G. 1872.

High Court Refuses
Picket Case Review

Washington, d. C. (AFLWNS).-
The Supreme Court of the United
States refused to review an injunction
issued by the Supreme Court of Illi-
nois restraining an A. F. Of L. union
from picketing Chicago beauty shop
whose proprietor refused to require
union membership by his employees.
The union thereupon picketed the
shop.
Holding there was no valid union
dispute, the Illinois Supreme Court
issued an injunction against picketing.
In it's petition for Supreme Court
review the union claimed the injunction
abridged the right to free speech and
assembly guaranteed by the Constitu-
ton of the United States.

Unions Ready Pldn
To Settle Dispute
Railroad Workers Agree On
Method To Adjust
Controversies

Chicago, Ill.-New machinery for
handling jurisdictional disputes, in
tended to eliminate stoppages and
promote peaceful industrial relations,
went into effect today among unions
affiliated with the Railway Employees
Department of the American Fedora
tion of Labor. 1t was estimated that
the unions represent 100000 shop
workers on the railroads.
Under the plan, which climaxes
thirteen years of effort, impartial
referees will decide jurisdictional ques-
tions that cannot be settled through
direct negotiations.
Officials Of the Railway Employees
Department said the plan was de-
signed to exclude recourse to manage
ment or government in the handling
of inter-union disputes and to keep
their settlement "inside the house of
labor"
The unions include the machinists,
boilermakers, blacksmiths, sheet-metal
workers, carmen and firemen, oilers
and shop laborers.
In letters sent to the heads of all
railroads urging cooperation by man.
agement in putting into effect deci-
sions arrived at through the jurisdic-
tional machinery the unions declared
that the new system was being put
forward "in an earnest effort to elm
mate as promptly as possible any and
all friction that may result from
jurisdictional disputes between our
various organizations"
Employers will not be asked or per-
mitted to decide questions of jurisdic-
ton, but the unions, in return, prom
ise that such questions shall not be
allowed to interfere with an employ
er's work.

MINIMUM WAGE
FOR BEAUTICIANS

With view to establishing a mini
mum wage in the beauty parlor indus
try in Ohio, the Department of In
dustrial Relations has compiled data
collected from all sections of the
State relative to the cosmetology in
dustry. 1t is estimated that there are
$1,000 beauticians in Ohio and five
thousand of them are unemployed.
Some operators are working for as
low as So and So week, while others
receive only board and lodging, the
survey revealed. The department al
ready has been allowed an appropria-
tion of $4,000 for the purpose Of set
ing up minimum wage board. This
board of nine members will determine
the minimum wage.

Funeral Expenses Cut
For Aged Pensioners

Funeral directors who have buried
old age pensioners who have died since
September 6, 1889, have preferred
claim of only 5000 against the estate
of the decedent instead of the $3.50
claim enjoyed against non-pensioners'
estates, Attorney General T. j. Her
bert has ruled.
His opinion also holds that Section
1887 General Code, providing for a
lien by the state on pensioners prop
erty for all pensions given, is incon-
sistent with the general law; was
passed subsequent to the general law;
and so repeals the general rule in the
case of old age pensioners.

A PLEA TO YOU
!ea to honest folk,

This is plea to honest folk,
Who don't think life is all a joke;
Who have in mind common thought
To keep our country from spot.
Don't knock the Unions with each
word.
They're there to help, or have you
heard?
Attend each meeting, speak your
mind,
Show everyone you're not behind.
Be sure to help the U. S. A.,
No matter what some people say;
And when you're down and out, don't
cuSS
And say the Country caused the muss
Just keep these verses in your heart
And when you buy, be sure to start
On goods we've made in this great
land,
And then Pm sure you'll understand.

Cities Warned To
Comply With Law
Firemen's 72-Hour q Week
Low Must Be ObeYed Or
Face Charges
(By Ohio Labor News Service)

(By Ohio Labor News Service)
Columbus, O.-State Department Of
Industrial Relations prepared this
week to enforce the provision Of
House Bill No. GAS (Mr. Whetro)
amending Section lila of the General
Code, regulating the hours Of work of
city fremen which went into effect
last September, according to an
nouncement of Director George A.
Strain.
There are nine cities in Ohio which
have not complied with the law and
in one case-Shaker Heights-court
action has been instigated to prevent
enforcement of the law.
Nelson Hovey, assistant Director of
the Department of Industrial Relations
said that the cities of Cincinnati, Day
ton, Piqua, GAINESVILLE, Findlay, Mans
field, East Cleveland and Cleveland
Heights had been notified that unless
they comply with the law mandamus
action will be begun in the Court of
Appeals of their respective districts
to compel compliance.
The law requires the chief Of the
fire department in each city to divide
the uniform force into not less than
two platoons. They shall not be COM
PEELED to work more than "a consecu-
tive hours except in case of emer-
gency. In addition to "a hours off duty
in each AZ hours, each individual
firemen is entitled to an additional
"a hours off in each fourteen days and
two weeks leave of absence annually
with pay.
This one day off every two weeks
is what is known among firemen as
the "Kelly Day." 1t gives a 72 hour
week. Of course the Kelly day does
not apply in cities where an eight hour
day or three shifts is established
The Attorney General has advised
the Department of Industrial Re-
lations that it is charged with the
duty of enforcing the law. Some cities
organized under home rule charters
contend the law does not apply to
them.
Appropriate $4,000 For Wage Board
Columbus, o. (OLNS).-The State
Board of Control has authorized an
appropriation of $4,000 to the State
Department of Industrial Relations
for the purpose of setting up a mini
mum wage board in the beauty parlor
industry.
Director Strain will appoint such
board and proceed at once to enforce
compliance with this law as soon as
machinery has been set up and the
minimum wage established.
