Philadelphia Strike Won
By AFL Insurance Agents

Philadelphia, Pa. - Following a
weeks walkout of the agents en-
ployed by the Industrial Life lnsur-
ance Co., and the State Mutual Life
Insurance Co., of Philadelphia, be-
cause the company had refused to rec
ognize the A. f. of l.. as their bar
gaining representative and had dis
charged two of their fellow workers,
officials of the company agreed to an
election to determine the wishes Of
the employees. When the ballots were
counted it was found that 65 out of
68 employees had voted for the A. F..
of l..
The company reinstated the two dis
charged employees with back pay,
agreed to pay the strikers for the
week they were out on strike, granted
closed shop agreement with pay
roll check-off, with recognition of the
A. F. of l.. as exclusive bargaining
agent.

Pro-Lobor Prayer
Offered BY Priest
In Camp Of Enemy

Monroe, La.-Taking tip from the
monkey -on-a- stick governor Of the ad-
joining state of Texas, the Louisiana
State Police Jury Association this
week struck out viciously at labor by
adopting an anti-strike resolution.
They then called upon Father
Francis P. Donohoe of the local parish
for an invocation the next morning.
The delegates were stunned to hear
a pro-labor prayer. Father Donohoe,
man of God, and unafraid, said:
"Most especially today, o God, we
sorely need Thy guidance and the
light of Thy holy wisdom. Under the
stress of these tumultuous times,
many in their shortsightedness and
misguided by partial and prostituted
press, have forgotten the ways of
brotherhood and have struck out saw
agely against the honest workers of
our land, falsely accusing labor of
sinister motives and want of patriot
ism.
"For the peace and welfare of our
mother country, enlighten the eyes
and illumine the minds Of these zeal
Gus and misguided souls, that they
may see rather the greed and selfish
ness of capital that has thwarted our
plans to defend our country, by
traitorously sitting down until de-
Tense bids were given on their own
terms.
"Thou knowest that for months
capital refused to expand our defense
plants, refused to sublet contracts
train skilled workers or even to ac-
cept our governmental orders. They
abolished the law of profit limitation
to enrich themselves at the price OF
the workers blood
"Thou, o Lord, Who has sanctifieo
labor by the work of Thy own divine
hands, bless the worker, grant that
these men here may have the wisdom
and courage to help right the wrong
suffered by Thy fellow workers, anc
hasten the day when the charity Of
Christ may dwell in the hearts o1
men,"
A guilty silence gripped the con
vention as Father Donohoe stepped
down from the rostrum and walked
from the hall. Later there were NUT
terings. "We'd have booed him if ht
hadn't been a preacher" one delegate
remarked.
The resolution adopted on the pre-
vious day condemned all strikes in de
fense industries, irrespective of merit
and called upon the federal govern
ment to open struck plants-and dea
severely with persons responsible foI
strikes or shutdowns.

Local No. 1873 Pdrty
Is Set For Friday
Excellent Entertainment and
Good Food All For
One Quarter

Plans for Local Union No. 1885
party have been completed. Chairman
Jack Vanaman announced that the
party will be held Friday, May 9,
7:30 p. m. in the banquet hall of the
N. B. of o. P. building. Tickets for
the party are 25 cents and will be sold
to members only.
Chairman Vanaman has announced
his committee as, Brothers Harold
Neville, Martin Smith and James Jor-
dan. He promises good food and ex-
cellent entertainment. What more
could you want for quarter.
An invitation has been extended to
our national president, James M
Duffy, to attend one of our meetings
very soon. We have several problems
we would like to discuss with him in
the general assembly of our local.
We are planning an attendance
campaign and have developed an idea
we think will succeed. We will have
drawing each meeting to encourage
the members to attend the meetings
and take part in the discussions anC
committee work.
Now a word to our members who
are in danger of becoming delinquent
Be sure and pay your dues up anC
save yourself from suspension. There
will be no leniency extended to delin-
quents. Another way to look at the
question; if you are a month behinC
in your dues you will lose $500 from
your insurance benefits, two months
you lose 5000. So don't you think
it will be to your own advantage tc
keep paid up.
We also would like to extend an in
vitation to any member of the N. B
of O. P. to visit our local anytime
they can.-O. c. 1873.

THE ENGLISHMAN HEDGED

A snobbish young Englishman Wis
iting Washington's home at Mount
Vernon was so patronizing as to
arouse the wrath of guards and care
takers; but it remained for "Shep"
Wright, an aged gardner and one of
the first scouts of the Confederate
army, to settle the gentleman. APP
preaching "Shep," the Englishman
said:
"Ah-er-my man, the hedge! Yes,
| see, George got this hedge from dear
old England"
"Reckon he did," replied "Shep."
"He got this whole blooming country
from England."

Food Budgets Of Needy
In Community

Designation Of Columbiana County
welfare recipients for participation in
the Food Stamp Plan which will in
crease food budgets here by approx
mately fifty per cent was announced
late last week by the Surplus Market
ing Administration Of the United
States Department Of Agriculture.
Official designation came from Paul
Fl. Jordan, Regional Director Of the
Surplus Marketing Administration
who stated that William NJ. Walsh
and William S. Fay, representatives
Of the agency in Cleveland area would
arrive in Columbiana County early
this week to set up machinery for the
issuance Of food stamps and TO train
local officials and business people in
their use.
Actual issuance Of stamps will be-
gin in approximately month.
Representatives Walsh and Fay and
their assistants will call meetings Of
all grocers, their clerks, district case
workers, county and local officials to
explain the workings of the food
stamp plan.
Issuing Offices will be set up
throughout the county where welfare
recipients may secure stamps and food
dealers will be instructed as to the
procedure for their redemption.
All persons receiving direct relief
or help from the various categories of
the Social Security Board will be
eligible under the Plan. Included also
will be all eligible WPA workers.
Eligibility will be certified in all
cases by an agent designated by Co.
lumbiana County Relief officials fol-
lowing preliminary conferences with
representatives of the Surplus Market
ing Administration.
Under the Food Stamp Plan, GER
titled persons will be permitted tc
purchase orange stamps in the same
amount which they now receive for
food for themselves and members OF
their families. For each dollars
worth of orange stamps so purchased
they will be given 80 cents worth OF
blue stamps free. The federal gov,
ernment pays for these blue stamps
with funds voted by Congress from
customs receipts. The blue stamps
must be used for the purchase of Am.
erican grown farm products which the
Secretary of Agriculture has desig,
mated as being in surplus.
The items so included are among
the staples of every adequate die
and according to nutritionists are es
sential to maintenance of health Mos
are grown by midwest farmers.
They are of the same quality as i
purchased for cash and are bought b,
the food dealer from his regula
wholesale source and for the mos
part are items which he has regularl,
stocked.
They are sold at the same going
market price which the dealer charges
his non-welfare customers.
Dealers redeem their stamps fo,
full face value through banks o.
wholesalers. They profit directly a!
the blue stamps represent ''nev
money" over and above the sale!
which the welfare recipient trade
formerly had to spend.

She was struggling with a cup of
hot coffee in small-town railway
station, trying to drink it before the

the guard waving to the woman, came
to the fore.
"Here ma'am, you can take my cup

effective in keeping defense workers

Such legislation would be harmful
and unnecessary, Mr.. Tobin said, be-
cause American workers are patriotic

Stock Averages
60 Stock Range Since 1927:
By VICTOR EUBANK,

Associated Press FINANCIAL Writer.
NEW YORK, April 4.-Attempts
to give the stock market another
rallying ride met with opposition
today and early gains of fractions
to a point or so we're reduced or
eliminated at the close.
The failure of the list to follow
through on Thursdays upswing,
fastest for the year to date, was a
bit discouraging to recovery forces
that hoped belated spring advance
was really under way.
At that there was some conSola-
ton in the fact activity, pronounced
when prices were rising in the first
hour, dWindled appreciably as trends
turned spotty 1t was recalled that
most forward f1urries during the past
several months have been one-day
affairs. Transfers approximated
100000 shares.
Initiation talk still was heard in
commission houses and thinking in
this direction was believed to have
done much to limit offerings. Busi-
ness news was on the hullish side.
The British reversal at Bengasi
tended to dim buying ardor to some
extent. Labor disputes. brokers sug-
gesteG, remained as a speculative
handicap and many customers who
took on commitments Yesterday
caShed in as insurance against up
sets over the approaching week end.
A number Of new 1941 highs we're
posted in the forenoon. Rails and
steelS were given brief run, but
the majority eventually conceded
most Of their improvement. A
handful of oils became fairly lively
after midday, with some tacking on
plus signs.
Among resistant shares the great
er part Of the day were Southern
Pacific, Pennsylvania. Union Pa
cifc. Bethlehem Steel, United States
Rubber, Dow Chemical, Du Pont,
Allied Chemical, Texas Corp, Con-
solidated Oil, Westinghouse and the
preferred of Santa Fe, Pere Mar
quette and International Paper.
Laggards included United States
Steel, youngstown Sheet, Chrysler,
Douglas Aircraft, Sears Roebock,
American Telephone, Western
Union. General Electric and East
man Kodak.
