Campaign

President Green and his associates on
their arrival. Governor E. D. Rivers
of Georgia and Mayor Hartsfield of
Atlanta stood at the head of the
crowd which overfowed the railroad
station and the enthusiastic reception
was described in the press as unparal-
leled in the city's history.
The churches also extended cor
dial welcome to labor. When Presi-
dent Green spoke at the Druid Hills
Baptist Church on Sunday morning
1900 persons filled the church and
several hundred more had to be turn
ed away.
Every local union, city central labor
council and the State Federation of
Labor of Virginia, North Carolina,
South Carolina, Georgia, Florida,
Louisiana Mississippi, Alabama, Ten
nessee and Kentucky sent delegates
to the conference.
The delegates cheered President
Green to the echo when he pledged to
them the full support and cooperation
of the American Federation of Labor
in their efforts to improve the stand
ards of living and work of Southern
labor.
In an extemporaneous address to
the conference President Green de-
clared that the organizing campaign
of the American Federation of Labor
would promote the economic and So
cial well-being of all the people Of the
South"
Denouncing the "smear" campaign
being conducted against the American
Federation Of Labor by Westbrook
Pegler, Mr.. Green emphasized that
the Federation does not tolerate
wrongdoing and calls upon public au-
thorities to wipe out racketeerine
wherever it exists.
Mr.. Green extolled the broad poll
cies of the American Federation OF
Labor which have resulted in economic
Legislative and social gains for the
workers. He concluded:
"This campaign in the South viii
never stop until every man and woman
eligible to membership shall be en-
rolled in the ranks of the American
Federation of Labor. l pledge the full
moral, economic ,and financial strength
of the American Federation of Labor
to the accomplishment of this goal.

drawn up your resolution pass it on
to the committee who is to take care
of drafting the new wage scale. State
what you think is fair and just price
for your work. If you can't do this
much for yourself, how do you expect
the few who have so faithfully put
their shoulder to the wheel drafting
the working conditions to put in the
wage scale what they think would be
fair price to pay man or woman
for type of work with which they
are not acquainted?
We want all members to come for
ward with their resolutions as to rates
of pay. Please bring them to the next
regular meeting which will be held
Wednesday, March 20 at 7 o'clock
sharp.
We are taking this opportunity to
warn all workers who are not affili-
ated with our organization that the
time has come when they must join.
If the Wagner Act is changed they
will have allowed golden opportunity
to slip by, and if they still lag behind
and are not affiliated with the organ
ization by the time we go into confer
ence with the manufacturers, we, the
members of Local Union No. 1876, have
come to this conclusion:
Be it resolved that if the non-union
workers in the Roseville Stone and
Art ware district are not signed up
when the time comes for the conferees
to sign the next contract, said con-
feree from that plant, if opposition
still exists, will not put his signature
to any agreement which the members
do not want.
Be it understood that all non-unior
workers come forward now for the
time is drawing short, do not wait fol-
the expiration date Of our old con-
tract, May 80, 1910, but come for.
ward now and join with US. Always
bear in mind that we are all unitec
in the same cause, striving at all times
for the advancement Of our organiza
tion and the elevation of our trade.
All men and women who have not
joined should do so now, and we, the
members of Local Union No. 1875, will
guarantee you that you will be treated
fair and square. The obligations as
well as the advantages Of organization
should be shared by all-O. C. 1876.

an acute unemployment problem faces
the country.
Even less are they able to under
stand why we should bar people from
our shores because they will lower the
living standards of the country and at
the same time allow the products of
these workers to come in America to
sell at lower price than Americans can
produce them.
The officials have spared no effort
to defeat this measure and hope that
all members will cooperate with them
to the best Of their ability.

Remember that hose size simply
means the length of the foot in inches.
Generally, size of your hose should be
a half-inch longer than your foot, al
though women with narrow feet
should select size slightly smaller
than would be selected by women with
feet of average width.

How DO You Cook Your Vegetables?
Vegetables that are treated like the
step children of the kitchen usually
end up second-rate on the dinner table.
Dropping vegetables in the kettle
and just letting them cook is the
wrong way to make them tasty and
appetizing. Vegetables need to be
given care and attention if they are
not to lose flavor, nourishment, and
color.
First rule to remember is not to
overlook vegetables. You want to let
them cook until they are tender and
edible--no longer. Use rapidly boil
ing salted water, but never soda. Soda
will keep green vegetables green, but
it also ruins the taste, makes the
vegetables mushy, and worst of all,
destroys the valuable Vitamin c found
in most green vegetables.
X X X
Making Tough Meat Tender
Meat that is easy on the budget
may be hard on the appetite unless
cooked properly. The secret of max
ing inexpensive but tough cuts of meat
tender is all in the cooking.
Generally, the rule to make meat
tender is to use long slow, moist cook
ing with some liquid. That rule holds
for stews, pot roast, Swiss steak, and
any number of meat dishes suitable
for the less tender cuts. Just the op-
posite is the method used for the ten
der meat dishes, such as roasts, steaks,
and chops, which are cooked with the
dry heat of roasting and broiling.
Using the acid of fruits or vege
tables also helps to make meat tender
by softening up the connective tissues.
For example, the meat can be cooked
with tomatoes, or placed in mixture
of vinegar or lemon juice and oil for
several hours before cooking.
If you're pressed for time, the
quickest way to soften up tough
piece of meat is to put it through a
meat grinder Then it can be cooked
by broiling or by any one of num-
Der of quick cooking methods. A SIM
liar method is to pound the meat,
breaking up the connective tissues.
So decide on what dish you want to
make, and then give the meat the
proper tenderizng treatment before
you route it to stove or oven.

Defining Food
Do you have any ideas on what does
go into margarine, bread, or cam
ned fruit for salad and fruit cocktail :?
If you do, the Food and Drug Admin

definitions have been worked out for
canned tomatoes and tomato paste,
tomato catsup, and tomato juice;
frozen and dried eggs, egg yolks; can
ned peaches, canned apricots, canned
pears, and canned cherries.
Now the Food Standards Commit
tee of the Department, which includes
2 Department and State food Off
cials, is working on definitions OF
these additional foods. Consumers
who have any ideas on how these
foods should be defined, are invited to
tell the Committee about them.
The Committee wants answers te
these questions:
(1) Do you know what goes into
margarine or do you want the labe
to tell you?
(2) How should bread be defined?
(3) What belongs in canned fruits
for salad and fruit cocktail?

CHICAGO GRAIN

CHICAGO, Dec. s. Up Wheat
prices bobbed above and below previ-
closing levels today, %fluctuating
within a range of So cent, narrowest
in some time, and closing unchanged
to ID lower compared with yester-
day.
The markets s~luggishness was
blamed on hesitancy due to uncer-
tainty regarding settlement of out
standing December contracts as well
as the war and the deadlocked do
nestle supply and demand situation.
Much of the trade came from dealers
evening up accounts or switching
hedges from December into May or
July contracts.
December wheat closed at 800
1-8, with May at sc 3-4-7-8. Corn
was 3-S-5-S lower, December 81 S-S,
May 60 1-2-3-S; oats 1873 off;
soybeans Isl 1-2 lower; rye 3-S
down and lard 2-5 lower.
Scattered selling of wheat may
have been associated with southwest
reports of increased sales of stored
wheat to pay taxes and obtain holl-
day cash, brokers said, but this acti-
witty was on a small scale. There
were some reports of mill purchases,

Precautions Are Taken
Against Spread Of Flu

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 5-'P-
States bordering on California be-
gan taking precautions today
against possible spread of the in
fuenza epidemic which has been
sweeping through various COM
munities in the Golden state.
The campus infirmary of the
University of Oregon at Eugene
was filed with influenza cases de-
scribed as of a mild type. The class
dance at the university was can
celled as a precaution and various
groups Of students were isolated in
their living quarters.
Portland health officers said there
was no epidemic in the city. In
southern Oregon, schools were
closed at Gold Hills as a precau-
ton. Similar action was taken in
Kennewich, Wash, across the
Oregon border.
