John |. Lewis Now
Seeks TO Organize
Americas Farmers
BY b. c. FORBES

John L. Lewis 1927 has taken
another step TO advance him
toward the realization of his
ambition TO become President
of the United States. He wants
to unionize Americas farmers,
with himself-of course-at their
head.
The Dairy Farmers Union,
composed of suppliers of milk TO
New York City. is 10 become af-
filiated with the United Mine
workers of America. of which
the pugnacious Lewis is COM
Observation-Disclosures what
logical connection there can be
between dairy farmers and coal
miners isn't clear to tho out
slider.
According to the chairman OF
the dairy union, each and every
bottle of milk entering the ma
tons metropolis would carry a
label certifying that the milk
had been produced by a union
farmer. handled by union labor
at receiving and pasteurizing
plants, delivered by a union
driver. The closed shop.
Perhaps Mr.. Lewis would pro-
coed TO dictate that only stores
employing union clerks could
obtain and sell milk. Perhaps
success would also move him to
proclaim, later. that only fam
lilies whose breadwinner be-
longed 10 a union could buy
milk.
There is no limit to the am
billions OF Mr.. Lewis.

Still a Power

Still power in labor union
ism, John L. Lewis now aspires
10 enroll Americas farmers
among his followers. Having or
gained dairy farmers. he would,
Judging by past performances,
reach out TO organize all farm
ers under his banner.
Think what political strength
this would mean IL and when
he came forward as a candidate
for the Presidency of the United
States.
How would you relish the
prospect of the elevation TO the
White House of John L. Lewis ?

Church and Home
By REV. M. MIKKELS SEN

This coming Sunday MAY 10) will
be sacred day in most homes
throughout the country. In tender
ness, in appreciation, in love, we are
dedicating Our thoughts to mother,
whole nation is paying tribute to
motherhood. With many of the boys
away from home, gone in answer to
the call of country and nation, moth
ers are unable to make out the loca-
ton of service, and the conditions
under which they serve, but mothers
prayer can always follow her boy
wherever he goes, and by this time,
as we begin to realize that the boys
are being sent to distant parts of
the world in defense of sacred ideals
of life, mothers prayers, 1 am sure,
have become the prayer of the whole
nation.
But the boys, wherever they may
be, are never so far removed from
that one dear spot which is always
home to them. On sea or in air,
at home or abroad there is a picture
of that home always before their
inner eye, mother has place in their
hearts which is definitely hers to
the end of their days. The day of all
days that is dedicated to mother will
mean lot to them under all circum-
tances, but more perhaps because it
is possible for them to follow her
around and see her at the different
tasks which they know she used to
do at this or that particular time
of the day. And so, / feel assured,
they shall find occasion to rejoice
and thank God for mother and for
mother-love.
Now, there is one more reason why
this Sunday is going to be a sacred
day, locally at least. 1t is confrma-
ton Sunday. And certainly it is a
day that will long be remembered
by the boys and the girls who are
being confirmed by God in the faith
of their baptism.
There are two sides to confrma-
ton, your side and Gods side. Chris
tianity is very personal, and must
so be. We cannot claim in our own
favor the good life other Christians
have lived. 1t is important that we
learn to know what to believe and
how we want to live, whether as
Christians or not. The Christian
training we get in our homes, church.
es, Sunday schools and confirmation
class rooms, should help to make our
own side of the Christian life more
clear to us and also to accept more
eagerly Gods promises as His part
of this life. When we are ready to
confess before God and men the
faith of our baptism God too is ready
to confirm in us the faith we confess
and our purpose to live as disciples
of Christ.
