Jeffries Shows
CoIors

Frankly, dear readers, we are
just a little bewildered by the
rapid changes in policy that have
been effected by the gentleman
from the Ohio Third Congressional
District, Harry P. Jeffrey. A.
every reader knows, we gave
Harry quite a going over in the
columns of this paper shortly be-
fore election. We said that we
didn't trust him, and that we were
positive that he was not a repre-
sentative of the people Of this COM
munity.
The actions of Harry P. Jeffrey
have confirmed our statements!
Shortly after his election, we
praised him for voting against the
notorious Dies committee. But
since then he has consistently
voted against the working men
and women of our state.
Jeffrey voted to eliminate the
$4,000 limitation on wages. HE
VOTED FOR THE HOBBS BILL,
he voted for the RUML PLAN!
What can we think? The only pos
sible answer is that the pressure
of the political bosses was too
much for Harry, and he weakened
In the home stretch like a scrub
HARRY P. JEFFREY. Remem-
Der the name! No doubt he will
give us the business that we de-
serve for not voting in sufficient
last election, BUT HE
WILL RUN AGAIN! This time if
we fail to give him the rousing
that he has earned, may
Heaven help the working man, be-
cause Congress never will!

Red Cross Drive
Goes Over Quote

The Red Cross War Fund Drive
for 1913 was very successful. The
goal of the Red Cross for Mont
gomery county was $350,0O0. At
the last report, $465,211 had been
reached, over 1873 per cent of the
goal All of the various commit
tees are to be congratulated on
the splendid results of the CAM
paign. "
In the industrial section, the
membership of the CIO really dug
down and gave double" No better
cause than the Red Cross is worthy
of the support of the CLIO, and the
membership responded nobly.
Through the participation of the
Montgomery County Council and
each CLIO Local urging support of
the Red Cross, a swell job was
turned in by all.
President Phil Murray of the
CIO, in a recent letter to all CIO
affiliates, congratulated the mem
bership of the CLIO on their sup
port of the Red Cross. The CTO
Red Cross committee, headed by
Orville L. Kuhnle, executive
board member of the Montgomery
Red Cross chapter, on be-
half of the committee, wishes to
hank each and every member of
CLIO for their support in the
War Fund Drive.

2 of the Dayton Union News.
General President Albert J. Fitz-
gerald, made some interesting
statements, regarding the victory
tax, he said, ."The so-called Vic
tory Tax is merely a five per cent
wage cut under the name of a tax.
BY failing to register the voice of
the people by voting in the past
election, a reactionary Congress is
well on the march towards making
life miserable for the working
man while allowing the rich to
become richer, and the poor to
become poorer. Congress will re-
ward Us for our patience in the
near future with another cut, A
20 PER CENT PAYROLL DEDUC-
TOM The thing that organized
labor needs most is a new form of
'stoppage,' not a stoppage of pro-
duction, but a stoppage of send
ing the wrong men to represent
the people in the halls of govern
ment"

Russ Nixon, UE Washington rep
resentative, opened the discussion
by relating how the southern
Democrats and northern Repub-
licans have formed a reactionary
bloc directed at the labor move
ment, and are fighting the admin
istration on all progressive legis-
lation. This bloc is very effective
and is we'll organized. Nixon cited
the vote on the Hobbs bill, (the
misunderstanding billy as an exam
pie of how the bloc operates.
Nixon brought out the statement
of Rickenbacker, who said, the
workers of the nation are sabo-
tagging the war effort"
The only points of the presi-
dents seven point program that
have been adopted and carried
through are the points relating to
wages and taxes. Effective price
control is a flop, Nixon said. War
production has not been effectively
organized, and Big Business is
only interested in profits, not win
ming the war. Congress and Indus
try have ignored the solutions
offered by Labor for a more effec-
tive prosecution of the war, Nixon
charged.
Nixon in closing said, this is
Peoples war, and the people of
the nation must be modified, to
Congress realize the impor-
lance of the Casablanca pledge,
and to prosecute the war effort,
until the unconditional surrender
of the Axis forces is accomplished"
James J. Matles, UE Director
of Organization, stressed that the
executive order of FDR
will affect all of the workers of
the nation. He pointed out that
over $4,000 members of the UE
are serving our country in the
forces. The presidents exec
utive order on wages issued last
Friday, is an admission by the
administration of the failure of
OPA, the War Labor Board and
the War Manpower Commission
to do their job.
If Labor had shown as little CO.
operation as James Byrnes, Direc-
tor OF Economic Sterilization,
Brown, OPA Adrninistra-
tor, and Paul McNutt, War Man.
power chief, all of Labor would
have been fired, Matles stated.
Matles asserted that General
Motors is attempting to break up
The War Labor Board, and all
gains made during the past
few years. Are we going to let
GM do this? Equal Pay for Equal
Work Is one of the primary goals
Of the UE, and the UE will hold
he line, Matles stated as it has
been holding the line in the past.

particularly in the women's branches
OF the Army and Navy. The asso-
citation also voted to continue its
efforts to enlist more women in
the ministry and to improve their
ecclesiastical status.
The United Council of Church
Women, national organization Of
layWomen, is also working for the
appointment of women trained in
religion as assistants to chaplains.
OF all denominations the Meth
odist Church appears to be most
sympathetic to the demands of
women for recognition. A Meth
odist publication recently suggested
that women supply pastors" be
used to replace clergymcn serving
as chaplains. Some Methodist
churches have already put this idea
into effect.
A similar movement for equality
OF women in church life is proceed
ing IN Great Britain, although
women there receive more official
recognition than in this country.
There exists in Britain an organiza-
ton called the Society for the Equal
Ministry Of Men and Women. 1t
recently went on record as affirm
ing belief that equality of oppor-
tunity for women in the churches
Is IAN essential Of human progress"
and demanded full recognition Of
this principle. The resolution spe-
officially urged the admission of
women to the ministry of the church
on equal terms with men.

One Of the less publicized aspects
of the Episcopal General Conven-
ton, which concluded in Cleveland
this week, emphasized a signifi-
cant wartime trend in religion-the
struggle of women for equality in
church affairs.
The Women's Auxiliary of the
Protestant Episcopal Church de-
manded that church leaders give
consideration to "the whole matter
of women's participation in the
counsels of the church." and also
requested that two women be ap-
pointed to the church's Joint Com
mission en- Holy Matrimony.
These demands represented a
compromise position. Earlier in the
convention resolution was ac-
cepted for discussion which asked
for the admission of women as
deputies to the church's General
Convention, while another resolu-
ton proposed that third house
be established in addition to the
existing House of Deputies and
House of Bishops. The resolutions
met with much debate, opponents
contending that the church is
mans last outpost" and that if
women invaded the field of church
government men would retire.

Eastern Shore Peach
Growers Suffer Estimated
Loss Of 81 100000

Cold weather over last week end

snow, sleet and hail. damaged crops
in Eastern Virginia and on the East
ern Shore of Maryland and Della
ware, horticulturists reported today
Sunday nights hail storm in the
Salisbury, Nd, section was reported
to have cut the Del-Ma-Va penin-
sula's estimated 81 900 900 peach crop
to not more than s500,0OO, and did
similar damage to Eastern Shore
apple orchards. Peach and apple
growers said the loss would average
IS per cent of the crop.
W. Lee Allen, member of the w.
F. Allen Co., Salisbury fruit dealer.
said his firm did not expect to ship
out single basket of peaches. He
said there may be few baskets to
sell at local stands.
Mr.. Allen said the storm resulted
in the most severe damage to his
firms crops since 1921, when only
2 bushels were picked from $4,000
trees. The firm usually harvests
about $4,000 bushels.
The Virginia Crop Reporting Serv-
ice said snow and sleet killed young
beet plants in the Norfolk section
and hurt the appearance of the
larger spinach. A portion of the
beet acreage was abandoned because
Of the cold, the report said.
Virginia peach growers in the vi
cinity of Waynesboro reported that
subfreezing weather over the week
end damaged peach buds The low
temperature Saturday was q and on
Sunday the mercury stood at 80
degrees.
Previously, L. P. Foster, general
manager of the Union Apple Co..
growers of apples and peaches in
Augusta County, had forecast a
small peach crop for Augusta if
there was any freezing at all.
Reports from peach orchardists in
Delaware indicated that crops in the
peach producing section of the State
were cut from so to 81 per cent by
the weekend cold.
A spokesman for former Senator
Townsend of Delaware, who has
large holdings in Sussex County, re-
ported 81 per cent damage to his
peach orchids.
Hope was expressed. however. that

harvested.

HELSINKI, April 6.-Compulsory
loans to the government were pre-

announcement by Finance Minister
Vaino Tanner that the imitation
danger to Finland's economy still
existed
The newspaper Uusi Suomi re-
vealed that the government planned
to introduce system of enforced
public loans.
Tanner said taxation already was
so severe that the State must resort
to means other than tax increases
to cover expenses Of the war.
The Finance Minister explained
that as long as the state was COM
PEELED to depend on currency credit
from the Bank of Finland the ma
tlonal economy isn't on a healthy
basis
Unless the war takes a favorable
turn" he said, there was little hope
that expenses could be kept down.

Agent Charge, Wingo Says

Otis T. Wingo, jr, former WASH

6icted Yesterday by the District
grand jury for willful failure to
register as an agent of foreign
principal as required by the Foreign
Agents Registration Act, says his
2redicament is due to "misunder-
standing"
In telegram from New York. Mr..
Ningo said there has been only un-
Intentional tardineSs in filing sup
Elementary papers on one of the
Jobs he had held. This, he said, was
due to a misunderstanding. but in
volved no secrecy whatsoever.
The indictment set forth that Mr..
Wlngo was in the service of both
the Finnish and Swedish govern
ments during parts of l94l and 1912
and that he also worked for the
Swedish Industries Fund. Inc. of
New York which was subsidized by
Swedish business groups
Mr. Wingo admitted the Swedish
and Finnish Legations were among
subscribers to his public news serv-
ice, but received only public in
formation. Hardness in filing
papers on the Swedish Industries
Job, he said, resulted in misun-
derstanding 'of the inclusion of
American corpora tions in the re-
Quirements."
