The strike at Simonds Worden
White is now In It's fourth week,
and the morale of the strikers is
just as high, in fact it Is better,
than the first day OF the strike.
The most important question
which now confronts every UE
worker in Dayton is this: "Can we
afford, can you afford to maintain
your living standards on the mea-
ger sum of sixteen dollars per
week. Can you feed your wives
and children on this paltry sum?
This is the problem which has
confronted the struggling workers
at Simonds- Worden- White for
several years.
This Is your problem as well
as theirs. So long as these un-

are in existence in Dayton, they

Imagine, attempting to feed four
or more small children on a sum

Union wages. Think, of being

The sum need not be large. Any
small contribution which you may
make, multiplied by the thousands
of UE members in Dayton, whose
hearts are always open to a plea
for help, will greatly alleviate the
suffering of these workers and
their families.

MEETINGS TO
START Q

A joint meeting Of the negotia-
ting committees of the Seybold
and Harris divisions of the Harris
Seybold- Potter Company will be
held in the near future. The pur-
pose of the meeting will be to
develop a joint contract for the
two divisions. The present con-
tracts are due to expire IN a few
months.
This meeting will enable the UE
members in both divisions to Sc
cure a better contract, by having
a broader base for negotiations.
A contract for all divisions of
H-S-P is in line with contracts
already in existence with such
plants as GE, Westinghouse, and
the many other industries, where
there are several plants owned by
one company.
BY having one contract for all
divisions of H-S-P, a great many
advantages can be gained for the
membership. A standardized SEN

PROGRAM
OUTLINED
FOR THE
COMING YEAR

CAMDEN, N. j.: The largest con-
vention in the history of the UER
&MWA finished its deliberations
here Friday afternoon, after hav-
ing hammered out a broad pro-
gram of activity for the coming
year, which should continue the
UE, as the fastest growing Union
in the CIO.
Highlighting the convention was
the Officers Report, which noted
an increase in membership of
1923 during 1910. The greatest
increase in membership was In
District Z (Ohio), amounting to
245.6%. The Report also recorded
SIS signed agreements, covering
$4,000 workers. During the past
year 1913 new contracts YER sign
ed. The UE won 12O Labor Board
elections, covering 46,905 workers,
in 1910. The financial status of the
international was also shown to
be the best in the Unions history.
The Seventh Annual Convention
of the UE, recognizing the danger
of Hitlerism, both at home and
abroad, went on record to give
"all-out" aid to Britain, Russia,
China and all other countries
fighting nazi-fascism. At the same
time the delegates pledged to
work for the extension of progress
sive social and labor legislation in
Congress, and against the attempts
to make labor bear an unfair
share of the defense costs, through
taxes, and rising living costs.

Restaurant Prices
Soon to Be Raised

Warning that Montanans may expect
an increase of approximately 10 per-
cent in restaurant prices, effective
June !, was voiced at Great Falls fol-
lowing a meeting of directors of the
Montana State Restaurant association,
with Gerald Wentworth, president,
presiding.
Spokesman for the association said
that Montana restaurant prices. low
cred during the depression, have in
many cases remained at the depression
low.
During the past year, they said,
prices OF foods most used in the prep
aration of restaurant meals have ad-
vanced an average Of 80 percent, max
ing impossible continuance of present
price levels.
Some Of the major items have ad-
vanced from so to 100 percent and
these price increases present a diff
cult problem for the restaurant OPP
orator, when 1t is realized these items
constitute about 80 percent Of his total
food purchases, 1t was pointed out.
In addition to determining necessity
for the price increase, the directors
discussed methods Of raising the gen.
erA standards Of the Montana res
taurant business.

Poultrymen consider a good ration
with plenty Of the right kind OF pro-
TENS and vitamins essential to good
hatchability. but good health and vigor
are equally important. The ration
should contain animal proteins, such
as meat scraps or milk, to balance the
vegetable proteins,. such as linseed.
plenty of vitamins are present in the
feed. the hen will store them in the
egg and thus give the chick a good
start in life.
Vigor and health in the breeding
stock is essential to assure good hatch
ability, and among the most common
causes Of poor hatchability are the
chronic ailments that tend to lower
appetite and vigor. Inflammation of
the intestines. commonly known bowel
troubles, may interfere with the proper
digestion Of the feed and the assimila-
ton of certain vitamins.
Internal and external parasites, such
as worms and lice, may irritate the
fowl to point where vigor is greatly
impaired and resistance to more seri-
GUS infections Is lowered. There can
be no excuse for the presence Of lice
or mites in the poultry house. It Is
so easy to pour thin stream of louise
killer along the roosts Just before the
fowl settle down for the evening, and
it is no great task to give the poultry
house good spraying with an effec-
tive mite repellent.
Breeding flocks with lowered resis-
lance are more susceptible to attacks
OF cholera and typhoid which may
break out In the spring when the
flocks are permitted to range outdoors
and drink water from surface pools
in contaminated yards. Immunity
against typhoid and cholera can be
established by vaccinating all fowl with
an s-gallinarum bacterin con-
tanning killed cultures OF the typhoid
and cholera organisms.
Many flocks that were treated for
worms when they were placed in the
laying houses in the fall should be
treated again In the early spring. Re-
infestation may have taken place
through carriers which were not COM
pletely freed Of egg-producing worms
in the fall. Roundworm eggs can be
expelled by such individuals and will
hatch and affect other fowl within %
days.
