To Be Protected
Wagner Bill Asks Protection
For Workers Employed
On Public Works

Washington, D. C. (1LNS).-In a
telegram to President William Green
Of the American Federation of Labor
Senator Robert F. Wagner of New
York agreed with the principle OF
amending S. 4269 to assure "the com
plete protection of the existing pen
sion rights of public employees"
The American Federation of Labo,
asked Senator Wagner to hold the
bill in allegiance until conferences can
be held to determine the question Of
whether amendments are needed to
safeguard pension plans of public en-
ployes.
TO Broaden Security Act
The main objective of the bill
which was introduced by Senator
Wagner in the Senate and Represen-
tative John w. Mccormack in the
House at the request Of the American
Federation Of Labor, is to extend pro-
visions of the Social Security Act to
some 100000 persons not now COW
cred.
Senator Wagner's telegram to Pres
ident Green said in part:
THANK you for your recent letter
on S. 1869. The essential objective

Cambridge Potters
Ddnce November is
Efforts Being Made To Bring
Defense Industries To
Pottery Town

Cambridge, OH the midst of ma
tional and international activities such
as politics and war, all Of which may
result in complications that may not
only effect our view points, but our
income, ways Of living and possibly
the way of dying, it seems hardly
worthwhile to dwell on local functions
However, as a result of the applica-
ton of the 4C-hour law, the day shift
begins the days operation at 7:30 q.
m. and finish at $3.50 p. M, taking a
full hour for lunch, practice exist
ing in very few shops. On Saturday
the shift starts at seven and finishes
at noon. The night shifts starts at
6 p. m. and works five, eight-hour
shifts, taking half-hour lunch
period. The starting and quitting
regulations have and may continue to
be the topic Of some comment.
Have you noticed the rapid upward
trend Of prices applied to butter, eggs
and other food stuffs, as we'll as Wall
Street stocks? Maybe profit taking is
just d III al thliiDIIlDIl VI .1lIltllCdIl
patriotism. May | suggest that the
potters wage income be kept in line.
Local Union No. 122 has completed
arrangements for the potters dance
at the Moose hall, November IS, with
good music and everything to assure
an unusually good time. Don't for
get the date, Saturday, November 16.
Efforts are in the making to locate
one or more defense industries in
Cambridge. Industrial activity here
reached very low mark, due to the
closing Of coal mines and steel mills,
caused partly by the depression, i'm
proved methods of steel production
elsewhere, and removal of the most
accessible coal supply, not to overlook
the coal stripping methods now en-
ployed which requires very little
manual labor.

Labor Peace Seen

Negotiations

Washington, D. president Roose-
welt strongly indicated on the morning
after election that unifcation of or
ganized labor may be the first i'm
portant domestic objective of his third
term.
A significant clue to the trend of
his mind was afforded by him at cere-
monies incidental .e~A.e laying of the
cornerstone Of new Post Office build
ing at his native village of Hyde Park.
Workmen standing around the build
ing carried placards reading: when
Lewis resigns, labor will prosper" and
"Not Mr.. Lewis but labor unity"
Noticing these signs, the President
called them to the attention of news
papermen with him and remarked:
"There's your story"
This incident evoked widespread
comment in the press. One press as
sociation declared that the President
appeared "ready to hold Mr.. Lewis
to his pledge to retire from the ClO.
Meanwhile, CIO officials started to
bring pressure upon Lewis for his i'm
mediate resignation. William M. Lead
er, President of Branch of the Amer
ican Federation Of Hosiery Worke4c,
wired Lewis:
"You stated in your radio speech
that President Roosevelt would not
be reelected unless he had the over

of all recognized labor papers and
that he send this list to every affili-

Farewell To France
By THOMAS JEFFERSON FLANAGAN

THE sunset pours its crimson
on the SCARED and beaten hill
Where late the fighting stalwarts
held the broken flanks until
The last retreat said finis,-
that shadow like a trance
Dazed the sons of freedom,
for, twas long farewell to France.
Here were the tracks of Louis
and his last dramatic stand,
And the French Revolution
shed its siren through the land,
But no Marsaillaise could stir them
in their blinking vanquished glance
Who like Lots wife before them
looked back on the fields of France
Once she in her glory
was the proud queen of the world
Her peerless beauty trophies
around the land were hurled
On the gay sidewalks of Paris,
no more the revues dance,
For ghoulish drumbeats tattoo
the routing march Of France.
Now comes the fateful hour,
and the blitzkrieg's sickle reaps
The Towering fields where peasants
comprise the harvest heaps,
And the old worlds heart is bleeding
beneath the conquerors prance
That stalks upon the gravelines
where the crosses weep for France.
And we dread sore tomorrow
for we heave no hopeful breath
AS long as Eiffel tower
flies the black Gwastika Of Death,
And bloody her8ider trumpet
in Che grim foes advance:
"Behold the crucifiXiOn
at the cross roads Of France.

Center of Breeding.
At the first dog show in Birming-
ham, Bill George had some winning
bulldogs and Birmingham became
and continued to be stronghold of
bulldog breeding. 1T was the first
show to provide separate clasSifica-
ton for this breed, although Lon-
don and Manchester soon followed.
Old Dick King was the first bulldog
of note in the show ring. One of his
offspring, Oh. British Monarch, pur-
chased by Sam Woodiwiss in 1885
for a then record price, became the
first stud dog to impress himself on
his get.
The Bulldog Club Inc, founded
in 1874 by j. w. Berrie, F. G. w.
Crayer, F. w. Crowther, A. E. Vi
cary and other noted breeders, is the
parent organization of many, many
bulldog speciality clubs throughout
England and many other countries.
1t held its first specially show in
1875, and has held one annually
since then with but few exceptions.

cialty shows often had over 200

The name bulldog Is almost
synonymous with British courage
and tenacity. Originating in the
cruelties of a barbaric age, the
bulldog, like the nation he typifles,
has grown in civilization and the
amenities of life to the point where
most of his compeers have been far
outdistanced. 1t is a breed that is
absolutely indigenous to the coun-
try that Is now known as its home.
1t has not borrowed from other
breeds or other nations, as far as
can be definitely ascertained, but
has evolved by process of selective
breeding from the "alaunts" which
the ancient Romans found in the
British Isles. While some authori-
ties think that the bulldog is a de-
scendant of the mastiff, evidence
points to a common heredity for
both breeds in the "alaunts" or
"pugnaces" which the Romans de-
scribed as being huge dogs trained
to fight at the sides of their mas
ters. The theory that pug blood was
introduced in the bulldog stream to
shorten the nose and improve the
temper has no proof.
The first literary reference to a
dog of the bulldog type in England
was made early in the 10th century,
by one w. Wulcher, who called the
animal a bandogge. In 1876 the
noted DR.. Caius referred to the ban

A Dog Lovers Notebook

Studebaker, 104 Eastwood avenue,
Silver Spring.
Mrs. Carter Halls Ahtram Ken
nels have started the season with a
bang. Her beautiful Irish terrier,
Hunters Moon, which made a spec
tacular debut at Baltimore last
winter, went best of breed at the
big Chagrin Valley Show on August
Is, and also at the speciality show of
the Ohio Irish Terrier Club. He won
five points and third place in the
group. Meanwhile his sister, Kill
varra Madrigal. has also done little
ladylike gathering-in of ribbons and
silverware. Shown seven times, at
three shows she was winners
bitch, and at four, best of breed.
Latest addition to the Ahtram
string of hopefuls is such a very
sub sub-deb, that she has not even
named as yet. She is an 8-month-
old wirehaired terrier pup, daugh-
ter of Swingtime of Macroom and
sired by Oh. Crackley Striking, the
wirehair which has Just achieved
the unusual feat of going best in
show at three shows in a row.,
Ever so often, local breeders are
swept by a wave of anxiety as a
desperate call goes out for a foster
mother to save orphaned pups.
Knowing the urgency of the situa-
ton, everyone is eager to help and
phones begin ringing all over the
community. Such an appeal came
last week, when Jonedith Kennels
dachshund, Oh. Sophie v. Werch-
felstrand, died of eclampsia-the
dreaded milk fever-and setter
bitch owned by E. B. Mcintyre was
the heroine who saved the litter
sired by Oh. Herman Rinkton.
Meanwhile, at Beech Tree Kennels,
Sheltie bitch welcomed in with her
own puppies a newborn wirehaired
baby, rushed over by automobile
from Baltimore. The puppy. sired
by Int. Oh. Dogberry Rio Grande,
and the only one of the litter,
survived the trip and Is now ti1riv'
