Sam GOmpers
In Pictures

The dramatic career of the
greatest labor leader in Ameri-
can history-Samuel Gompers-
will soon come to life again on
the silver screen.
A new motion picture COM
pany just set up in New York,
the American Pictures Corpora
ton, announced this week that
work has been started on the
film, and that it will be the first
of series on the lives of great
figures in this nations past.
Geza Herczeg, noted play
wright, who wrote the story and
screen play of "The Life Of
Emile Zola," which won the 1886
Academy Award, has begun pre-
pairing the script for "The Life
of Samuel Gompers."
Herczeg has been given access
to private records of Gompers'
career and to the impressive
Gompers' library, one of the ma
TONS most complete collection of
volumes on labor and general
economics, which has been do
mated to the New York Public
Library.
Officials of the A. F. of L.,
which Gompers founded and pi-
lOted for 43 years, until his
death in 1924, are assisting in
the plans.

Seek ToBetter
Pasture Fields
OF Licking Co.

There is a growing interest In
pasture improvement on the
part of Licking County farmers
says Glenn w. Poe, Conserva-
zionist, at the local CCC Camp.
Their interest is measured prin-
cipally by the fact that farmers
are asking questions about what
can be done in certain pasture
fields to improve both the quail
ity and quantity of feed to be
obtained from that part of the
farm land.
Pasture grasses, like other
crops, respond to applications of
lime and fertilizer but one very
common mistake observed in
this vicinity is the damage done
to pasture turf by tramping, as
result of turning stock out the
past two weeks. Because of con-
tinued rains, the soil has been
kept saturated, making it easy
to be cut to pieces and COM
pacted by livestock during this
critical period.
This practice will not only re-
duce the total production for the
season, from this land, but soil
and water losses will very likely
occur says Poe.
There are perhaps good reas-
ons why farmers have turned
their stock out and one may be
that feed is running low, or they
want to &c away from barn
feeding because of the long hard
winter, but for those who are in
terested in having better pas
lures, Mr.. Poe offers the follow
ing points for consideration:
1. Keep the livestock off the
pastures until the ground is set
tied. Injured grass plants may
die or at least theI ability to
produce is greatly lessened and
compacted soil will not absorb
and hold water which may be
available for future use.
2 Keep the livestock off pas
lures until the grass gets a good
start; it needs top growth to re-
main healthy and vigorous so it
can compete with other types of
vegetation such as early weeds.
3 Plan now to put up more
good hay so livestock can be we'll
fed until pastures are ready to
feed the livestock for you.
A Have the soil tested for
lime and start on a pasture
treatment program which will
furnish more and cheaper feed.
5 If farmers want help in
planning for better pastures,
better crop production, and man
agement of each, and they want
these all blended together into
soil and water conservation pro-
gram for their farms, they
should contact their County
Agent, and technical help is
available if the farm is not too
far from the CCC Camp.

number of those drawing unem-
ployment benefits would have
been forced to seek general re-
lief were it not for their unem-
ployment compensation.
The millions of dollars paid
for unemployment benefits in
Ohio constitute purchasing pow
er. These payments are spent
at the retail stores and in rent
to, the landlord. This money is
cash in the pockets of the work
ing men and women-money
which they could receive in no
other way than from unemploy-
ment compensation.
Despite the fact that unem-
ployment benefits admittedly are
low in Ohio, the Importance of
the program is strikingly illus
trated by the figures quoted
above.

Federal Age Ban
Is Condemned

Denial by the Federal govern

denounced as unfair" this week
by Senator James M. Mead,
Democrat, New York.
With an increasing army of
men and women from 40 to 60
walking the streets" looking

the restriction SHOULD be ami

''It can't be true democracy
