standing performances. He plays a
part With which he was entirely
familiar and one in which he is not
seen often enough. A rough riding,

BILLY THE KID FILM
is OFFERED AT BIJOU

The b~lood-stained fighting trails
of the Western frontier of the seven
ties were trodden by many notorious
gunner of the border breed, always
ready and more than willing to shoot
it out with any opponent, and if neces-
sary, to die with their boots on, as
a goodly number of them did. Among
these reckless battlers the name of
Billy the Kid shines pre-eminent.
His is the glamorous figure, of Pc
culiar interest because Billy wasn't
a fiction product, but a genuine his
torical character, that Bob Steeles'
portrays with splendid dash and vim
at the Bijou theatre, in the first
of a new series of super-Westerns,
sponsored by Producers Releasing
Corporation Billy The Kid Out
lawed." It's a humdinger of a
shootin' ridin' melodrama which
shows how Billy, at the outset a
mere cowboy, renowned for his &C
curate g%un-play, goes haywire over
the murder of his two best friends,
seeks revenge, and unjustly brand
ed as an outlaw, becomes a law unto
himself, with his two-gun battery a
court of last resort, enforcing bloody
decisions from which there could be
appeal.

THIRD FINGER, LEFT HAND'
is OFFERED AT CAROLINA

Myrna 10y, "perfect wife" of the
screen, and Melvyn Douglas, the
man who made Carlo laugh in
"Ninotchka," prove a brilliant team
in Third Finger, Left Hand" which
opened yesterday at the Carolina
theatre.
The new comedy provides Miss
10y with a rampageous wife role
and gives Douglas as many hilarious
troubles as William Powell had in
II Love You Again." Miss 10y, a
fashion magazine editor, invents a
fictitious husband for business rea-
sons, and Douglas, a landscape
painter, arrives on the scene posing
as the mythical spouse. She can't
expose her deception, SO takes it out
by plunging the debonair Douglas
into every comical trouble she car
think of, even embarrassing him by
scandalizing his hometown folks
with assumed vulgarity on their
honeymoon. Her attorney, Lee Bow
man, %conspires to get her divorced
that he can marry her himself,
and amid the laughable mix-up she
and Douglas suddenly discover
they've been in love with each other
all along.
Miss 10y plays her role to the last
comedy values as she heaps troubles
on the head of Douglas, who gets
laughs out of his tribulations as the
victim of her FRANKS and pays her
back in kind. Lee Bowman is a
romantic figure as Suitor No. Two.

COMMENT ON WORLD EVENTS

"The workers of all grades are Civ
ing all they know to the task of pro-
viding the means whereby the men ir
the forces can raise an impenetrable
barrier to the Nazi hordes and in good
time pursue the path to victory.
An important section of the report
summarizes the activities of the gen.
eral council on matters arising directly
out of the war.
Full details are given of the ma
chinery of consultation with the gov
ernment departments. Members of
the trade union movement are serving
on a great many committees of this
character. The object throughout, the
report points out, 'has been to carry
out the policy laid down by successive
congresses to preserve and extend the
rights and functions of the trade
unions, while supporting the national
resistance to Nazi aggression"
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1940-11-01

War has not brought stop to Brit
ish labor progress. During twelve
months of conflict, membership of
British unions increased substantially,
the annual report of the British Trades
Union Congress general council re-
veals.
The council told the annual meeting
of the congress at Southport that
membership of affiliated unions had in
creased in 1889 by nearly 100000 and
that the gain had continued in the
nine months from the first of this
year until the opening of the congress
in early October. Aggregate mem
bership at the beginning of 1910 was
4,S64,S51, the council report said.
British labor is on the march, war
or no war. The report and labor's
position of prominence in the present
government makes this clear, and re-
fleets credit on the spirit, intelligence
and leadership of Britain's organized
workers.
In the introduction to the report,
the general council comments on la
boris position in the nation and in
dustry, emphasizing that the trade
union movement is in the forefront of
the battle which will determine the
course of history. 1t says:
"The position of the trade union
movement in industry, and its repre-
sentative capacity as consumers as
well as producers has never been more
fully acknowledged. That power has
been welded wisely and we'll
eve have acted as a great national
movement for the protection of our
members, but we have not forgotten
that power brings responsibilities, and
at such time of national crisis those
responsibilities to the nation have
been infexibly pursued"
Then the general council shows that
it is looking to the future by warning
that the general friendliness now felt
for the labor movement may not last
indefinitely and urging continued ef
forts to strengthen the movement.
eve do not imagine" says the coun-
ell chat in less critical times, which
will assuredly come, all those who now
acclaim the efforts of trade unionists,
will always be so favorably disposed
toward us. So while we are advancing
we are not overlooking the consolida-
tion of our ranks"
The report does not forget the rank
and file of workers, paying tribute to
their determination and fortitude in
the following words:

BOTH BENEFIT

There has always been much writ
ten and spoken about the benefits to
foreign-born persons of becoming
United States citizens. Not so much
has been said about the benefits Amer
lea has derived from its foreign-born
citizens, who have been contributing
greatly to the nations progress since
its very beginning.
The New York Times recently en-
phasized this in commenting on the
admission to citizenship of Prof. AL
bert Einstein, the celebrated physicist.
eve hope" said the Times, ''that
American citizens, native-born or 9TH
erwise, realize that our country is a
beneficiary as we'll as benefactor
when it welcomes newcomers of in
telligence and integrity who are able
and eager to contribute their share
to our national life
Prof. Einstein, the Times further
comments, "came, like many others,
bringing gifts. We are the richer in
having him for fellow-citizen."
Truths pointed out by the Times
call for wide circulation, in these times
when public feeling may sometimes
lead to blanket suspicion and distrust
of the foreign-born.

IMPORTANT LABOR VICTORIES

Labor has good reason to rejoice
over sweeping decisions by the Oregon
and California Supreme Courts, up
holding union rights, including the
vital right of peaceful picketing.
An important feature of the Cali
fornia decision was upholding of union
shop contracts as legal and the courts
declaration that, "An EMPLOYER has
no constitutional right to conduct his
business as a closed, non-union shop. "
Both decisions are of national sig
nificance and interest, probably her
aiding similar decisions elsewhere. as
they were based fundamentally on re-
cent United States Supreme Court
rulings upholding peaceful picketing.
The Oregon decision was especially
important, as the anti-union law it
killed was advocated nationally by
unlon-hating interests and led to at
tempts to pass similar laws in other
states. The few that were passed were

not as drastic as the Oregon mon
strosity.
1t is worthy of note that the Oregon
victory was won by united action of
all labor, the A. F. of L., c. 10. and
unaffiliated railroad unions joining in
the two-year fight to have the law
held unconstitutional.

A PLEA TO ALL
VOTERS

A plea that voters go to the polls
well-informed with facts regarding the
one-fourth mill tuberculosis tax levy
is made by the Tax Levy Committee
of the Butler County tuberculosis and
Health Association. Working for the
successful passage of the levy, COM
mittee, with Dr. Azel Ames, Hamilton
physician, as chairman, has been
working for many weeks to inform the
public with facts regarding the tuber-
culosis situation in the county.
Need for the passage of the levy is
important, the committee points out,
because finances are needed to con-
tinue the operation of the tuberculosis
clinic, held at Mercy Hospital weekly,
and to send active cases of tuberculosis
to tuberculosis hospitals for proper
treatment, care, and isolation
The levy, if passed, will produce
S42,500 per year for a period of three
years and needs 65@6 vote ''for" the
levy to pass. Actual cost will be small
to the taxpayer, the tax levy commit
tee points out, adding only twenty
five cents per thousand dollar valua-
tion of property.
Records of the Middletown, Hamil-
ton, and county health departments
show a dismal picture so far as tuber-
culosis is concerned, with 442 cases of
tuberculosis on record These cases,
well scattered in all parts of the
county, consist of I291 in Hamilton. SO
