resolution:
I'VE condemn the IN on
busting tactics of Richard
Frankensteen and call upon all
other members and officials Of
the United Auto Workers and
the CIO to take similar action.
I'VE reiterate our position
that we are determined to hold

settlement of the issue, the board
suggested that southern operators

entail between the northern and
southern Appalachian fields.
Northern operators already have
agreed TO give their miners a 81 a

Oil Treatment Essential
Heat and dryness will demand
an occasional Oil treatment to keep
your hair soft and lustrous. This
is also a good emergency treatment,
after a day at the beach, to replace
natural oils, "gone with the wind.s
The oil treatment is especially good
if your hair is too dry just after
shampoo and has a tendency to
become too oily later.
Olive oil is one of the oldest
beauty preparations and is still rec
ognized as an effective and mex
pensive aid to parched scalps. Wig
orous scalp massage should be con-
sidered an important part of the oil
treatment. Avoid using a high de-
gree of artificial heat in drying.
especially when there is a tendency
toward dry scalp and brittle hair.
Give yourself the treatment once
each month. and the scalp will defy
summer temperatures.
Brushes and combs should be
immaculate. A thorough scrubblnE
in warm suds is due them at lease
once week. If possible, dry in the
sun, for this will prolong the l.fe
of brushes and keep the combs, a.
well as brushes, sanitary.
Keep your couture simple, so thai
it will take little of your time. Have
it flattering to you even though c

No matter how we may hedge anc

current questions, there is one fact we
all do know-and one issue we cant
dodge-we know when we take some
thing that isn't ours-it is stealing
whether it is done by an individual
a group or a nation.
We can't alibi theft by saying the
person it was stolen from also stole
There no alibi in that in our system
of jurisprudence. No man or nation
has a right to take the law into his
own hands. AS individuals and as
groups we have struggled towards that
