Research On
Labor Asked
(Coutinued From Page One)

eaniZed labor was lucky to escape
without losing some of the gains it
has already scored in North Caro-
lima.
In the forefront of opposition were
the hotel-cafe and laundry-dry
cleaning industries, with others aid
ing and abetting more or less from
the background
The State Federation of Labor
(AFL-affilate) has not given up
hope of getting wage-hour law
through at the coming session, how
ever. and the CIO organization in
North Carolina will doubtless fight
even more vigorously Though prob
ably less effectively for the same re-
suit
The 1889 wage-hour fight has been
carried over into the race for speak
ership of the l94l House, with Odus
Null an avoWed candidate, the chief
target of the Labor forces which re-
gard the Cleveland county legisla-
tor as the very personiGcation Of in
dustrial opposition to Labor. Two
other candidates, George UZzell of
Salisbury and James B. Vogler OF
Mecklenburg, are regarded as favor
able to Labor.
The resolution adopted by the
Wage-Hour commission follows:
Whereas the Commission believes
that its JUDGMENT should be based
upon accurate and comprehensive
data concerning the extent 70 which
wage and hour legislation would al
feet the employed personnel and the
employers of North Carolina:
"And that clear picture of the at
tempt to fashion and enact legiSla-
ton during the General Assembly of
1889 would be helpful in reflecting
the viewpoint of the opposition tC
such measures as were proposed;
"And that these data which are
pertinent not only to Judgment but
to defense of any recommendation
which the Commission might make
require very prompt and earnest re-
search:
"Therefore, but it resolved that the
Commission authorize the employ
ment of a director of this research
and request the Governor to make
! available from the emergency func
sufficient moneys, in addition to the
other necessary expenses of the Com
mission, to<,ay this employee, anc
the departments of the State Govern
ment be instructed to cooperate with
| the Commissions representative If
| gathering the information needed"

The Psalm which is the subject Of
today's lesson is short, but it is pro-
badly the best known and loved of
all the psalms It has no date. Some
put it early in David's life, some
place it late. It might have been writ
ten about lO40 B. c. David lived
through most Of the 18th century.
Let us read it over and then talk
about it.
Jehovah is my shepherd: shall not
He maketh me to lie down in green
pastures:
He leadcth me beside still waters.
He restoreth my soul:
He guideth me in the paths of right
couSneSS for His names sake.
Yea, though l walk through the val
ley of the shadow Of death.
| will fear no evil: for Thou art with
me:
Thy rod and Thy staff, they COM
fort me.
Thou preparest table before me in
. the presence of mine enemies:
Thou anointest my head with oil:
My cup runneth over
Surely goodness and loving-kindness
shall follow me all the days OF
my life;
And | shall dwell in the house OF
Jehovah forever"
"Jehovah is my shepherd" The
Jews were pastoral people, and
shepherds guarded their flocks with
their lives if necessary. Therefore
there was no higher conception OF
tender care and Watchfulness over
those in his charge, than that OF the
shepherd and his flock. A shepherd
saw that his charges had the best OF
pasture available, that they had wa
ter, that they had a place to rest; and
if one was lost, the shepherd sought
for it until it was found and restor-
ed to the flock.
Trust i'm the Lord.
Thus does Jehovah watch over His
people. If we but trust in Him, we,
too. shall be taken care Oiled to
green pastures beside still waters
our souls restored when they are
weary.
We shall be led into paths OF
righteousness-not Wickedness. And
even if we are compelled to walk
Through the valley Of the shadow
of death"-Whch we all must do
some time in our lives-we should
fear no eveil," for our God is with
us; His rod and His staff shall COM
fort us-again symbols of the shep-
herd, for each shepherd carries a
staff to lean upon and to touch the
sheep with, and a rod with which
he could strike down a wild beast
that threatened his sheep.
Thou preparest table before me
in the presence of mine enemies"
We all hive enemies-eVil thoughts
that would lead us astray: tempta,
tions of many kinds that peset US ana !.
to which we may give way; But II
we turn to Jehovah, our Shepherd
we will not turn from the patns OF
righteousness, but feast in the pre-,
sence of these same enemies, and
grow strong to Withstand all such
assaults. Ill, -,
Thou anointest my head with OIL
my cup runneth over"

MITCHELL CASE
 OVER FEW DAYS
Manslaughter Trial Re- sumes Wednesday; Many
 Medical Men on Stand

Three states witnesses yesterday were asked by DefepSe Attorney Ed ward A. Mascolo whether, up to the time when they took the stand, war rants had beer served on them for the part which they admitted hav- ing played in the abortion -man- slaughter case of Gladys Mitchell, of Waterbury, who is on trial be- fore a jury in superior court. The three were MT. and Mrs. James Cook, of 986 South Main street, and Joseph McCary, of Waterbury.
 The trial was adjourned until Wednesday after an all-day hearing yesterday, when the state presented the witnesses mentioned above and also obtained the testimony of an impressive array of medical men.
 The three witnesses who were asked the pointed question by MT. Mascolo replied in the negative, but also replied in the negative to the next question which States Attor- ney William B. Fitzgerald quickly put to them.
 The question was whether or not, during any interrogation by the states attorney s office, they had been given to understand that war rants would not be issued for theri arrest.
 Mrs. Mitchell went on trial Tues day for abortion and manslaughter in connection with the death of Carmella Rosato last May. She has pleaded mot guilty.

Elks Will Initiate
 J. J. Pershing Class
Exercises to Be Held Next Month as Token of Afec=
 tiOn and Esteem for Famous War General

3. To assist in the physical de- velopment of the youth of our country
 MT. Cashin also mentioned the fact that General Pershing cele- brated his eightieth birthday only a few weeks ago-"eighty years crowded with achievement and serv- ice to his country"
 General John J. Pershing is one of the last of the great American fighters who gained his apprentice ship in battles with the Indians, in the Spanish American War and the Mexican and Philippine 1nsur- rectionS.
 Born in Linn County, Missouri, eighty years ago, General Pershing graduated from West Point in 1886, was commissioned a second lieuten- ant in the 9th U. s. Cavalry and very soon thereafter became con- mander of the Indian Scouts in the Apache and Sioux campaigns.
 In 1891 while acting as military instructor at the University of Ne braska, General Pershing became member of the B. P. O. E. Elks, Lin- coin Nebraska Lodge Mo- 30 and in 1910 became life member of Fl Paso, Texas Lodge No. 187.
 Following the Santiago campaign in 1898 he commanded the Amer ican troops during the Philippine Insurrection. Again in 1913 General Pershing was sent to the Philip pines where he again defeated the Moros in the decisive battle of Bag sak, June 12, 1913. Three years later in March 1916 he commanded the troops sent into Mexico in pursuit of Villa.
 {. Holder of the highest military decorations from the Allied Powers and recipient of degrees from the worlds greatest seats of fearing, General Pershing retired September 13, 1924, three years after his ap- pointment as General of the United States Army.
 Rallying from a recent serious ill., ness General Pershing is now plac- ing his vast store of military know ledge at the disposal of the United States government.
 The Elks of America are deter mined to make the Pershing class the largest in their history as an in- dication to the general of their great affection and esteem.

 The General Pershing Class, MT. CaShin stated will be a part of a general program of defense which has been set up by the leaders of the Order, Grand Exalted Ruler Jo- seph G. Buch of Trenton, New Jersey, and the Elks National De- fense Commission, of which James R. Nicholson of New York City is chairman.

 l. To uphold and teach Amer icaniSm and our democratic form of government.
 2. To discover and report treas enable, subversive and fifth column activities in America.
