Urge Government To Start
Investigation To Determine
Cause Of LuY-OHs

Ottawa, Can. - That thousands of
workers are being laid off in local war
plants was Il sensational charge made
this week by the Montreal Trades and
Labor Council. 1t has called on the
Dominion government to launch an
immediate investigation to determine
Just what is back of this development.
Support was given the claim of labor
by government report showing that
on February !, 24,52G fewer workers
We're on the payrolls of Canadian in
dustries than on January l.
Labor throughout the Dominion has
also taken up arms against the official
cost of living index, which is declared
to be so far out of line with actual
conditions that it works an injustice
on millions Of Canadians.
Demands Fair Shake"
In an open letter to Prime Minister
Mackenzie King. j. w. Buckley, secre-
tary of the Toronto District Labor
Council, demanded fair shake for
workers.
The Vancouver, New Westminster,
and other district trades and labor
councils have voiced demands for pub
lie meetings shortly to protest against
the methods used by the government
in arriving at the index. This decision
was reached after members declared
true picture of price increases is not
being given.
| In his letter to the Prime Minister
Buckley said: I'VE cannot agree there
has been a drop in the index for the
wage Garner" and added:
Using wrong Approach
1--WE appreciate the necessity Of re
sisting imitation, but we take issue with
the governments approach to the
question.
commodity prices were allowed tC

years advantage over any wage in
creaSeS
I'VE take issue with statements that
the cost-of-living index has dropped
because there has been decline in
the food group, principally in the cost
of tea, coffee and oranges. This drOI
in prices was due to the direct subsidy
paid by the Dominion government
The subsidy was paid by the taxpayer
and these taxes are certainly Il part OF
our cost of living"

We have one freedom which I believe we overdo, and that is the right to complain. I heard fellow complain the other night because he could not get gas, and then l saw him play this hand-and how he complained about hard luck when his opponents made game and rubber on the hand! He probably did not need the gas, and he could have defeated this hand.
 When the hand went down, the declarer could count only eight tricks. He won the first trick with the queen of hearts, cashed the three top spades and the three top diamonds. Then he led the ace of clubs, and our friend in the South played the seven-and now the contract was made. If South had played his king of clubs on the ace, North would have won the

he proceeded to give Lincoln the directions: Three days journey south of Lake Tchad, in the jun gle clearing which is called by the Negroes the Meeting of the Elephants, not far from a moun- tain known as the Hill of Seven Spears
 He rose.
 Again he added, 'the Lodge of the Bi-Hassanyieh is dispersed. But this time of our own free will. None, after tonight, will en- ter this building. For, in the fu- lure, it will be too risky to meet here. So, when you return with ford from the master, bring it to me where I live"
 'The same old place?'
 "Yes. The other side O. the camel-market."
 Once more he embraced the American.
 May Allah guard the stepping of your feet!" he said.
 They left the hall. In the outer room, Fosiha was talking to a middle-aged Riffian. Lincoln rec ognized him as former acquaint- ance, one of the dervishes, Nah mould Kassem by name
 He turned to go, leaning on Mahmoud's arm, when Lincoln stopped him with a question that had been bothering him an in- tensely personal question, though he tried to make it sound casual:
 What about our new military governor here? They say he is friendly to the natives
 He is. Yet he dies - tonight"
 "Oh does hep the American echoed in his thoughts. Aloud he said, T thought all the great Christian dignitaries were to be murdered on the same day?"
 Not he. Sidi Elliot, I have been told, is a very shrewd man, thus a very dangerous man, who knows much-and may find out more"
 "Still, if he dies tonight, wouldn't that be giving the plot aWay?"
 No. For he will be killed by woman who will swear that she did it for the sake of revenge, be- cause once he loved her, deserted her. It was Fosiha who had the wise notion .'
 And who," Fosiha exclaimed shall wield the dagger?'
 May the Lord Allah" said el- Andalosi, give strength to your blade and true aim!"
 He left with Mahmoud; and Fo- siha and Lincoln were alone.
 Her head was bowed. He stared at her. Again he wondered if she knew who he was; felt almost certain that she did
 He kept on staring at her, cen- tering all his will on her in an effort to force her to look up, to return his gaze, to answer his un- spoken question.
 All at once, she did Her eyes met his and he heard her Whis- per:

Your chin line is your first line of defense against old age. You may have the figure of a 16-year- old and the complexion of a baby but if your chin sags you can kiss the illu- sion of youth goodby.
 Often the sort of work girl does contributes that extra and less-than- welcome fold of fat be- low the jaw.
