JUDGE MORTON
HEARS ANOTHER
POLL TAX CASE

A hearing was had here last
Saturday before Judge George l..
Morton. of the Lee-Wise judicial
district. upon mand anus proceed
ings asking that Treasurer w I'M.
McFall be directed to accept al
legged tender of money from Cas-
Mullins. of the Nickels Gap sec
ton in payment of capitatlon tax
for his son, james Mullins, now
in the army. Judge A. A. Skeen
had previously disqualified him
self in this case.
After hearing much evidence
and more argumen. pro and con,
Judge Morton sustained the man
damus proceedings to compel the
Treasurer to accept payment OF
James Mullins tax by his father
and to give him proper receipt
for same, but that the matter OF
placing his name on the certlfl-
ed poll tax list was discretionary
with the Treasurer, subject to
proper correction by the court
upon petition.
Cas- Mullins testified that his
son. James, was indicted into the
army 7 or 8 months ago, that the
son was previously employed at
Clinchco. and that he left with
his parents funds to pay store
debt and his poll tax, and that
he called at the Treasurer OF
flee late in February for this pur
pose and that Treasurer Mctall
told him that he could not &C
cept such payment until he secur
ed written authorization from his
son.
Treasurer McFall testified that
he did not refuse to accept pay
ment of the poll tax as an obll-
cation, but that he informed Cas-
Mullins that he would have to
secure written authorization from
his son before he could place his
name on the certified poll tax
list, and that he agreed to ac-
cept payment of poll tax then
and there if Mullins would &C
cept a receipt with written stlp-
ulation that payment was only IN
discharge Of amount due the
State.

ACTION EXPECTED
IN LABOR DISPUTE
Oakville Co. Employees
to Hear From War
Labor Board

John J. Driscoll, field representa-
tive of the c. I. o. announced yes
terday that action on nine month
old contract grievance between the
c. I. o. Mine, Mill and Smelter
Workers Union and the Oakville
Company, division of Scovill Manu-
featuring Company will take place
this week by the New England
regional Office Of the War Labor
Board.
Local PSI, bargaining agency for
union workers of the company, de-
sires payment of a two-cent-an-
hour general wage differential be-
tween a six-cent increase granted
by Scovill last year and an eight
cent boost given American Brass
Company employees, a union security
clause, two weeks vacation with pay
and new grievance procedure.
This case has been pending since
October 10. 1912 and was one of the
first to be sanctioned by the war
labor agency. The dispute resulted
from a breakdown of negotiations
carried on between the parties for
contract to replace one which ex-
PRED May -, 1912.
A panel of the national WLB
heard the original arguments and
failed to agree on decision. Since
then the matter has been trans
ferred to the New England regional
board for disposition.
Mr.. Driscoll said that the secur-
ity clause, sought by the union, is
a union shop.

Go over to the major and ask
him to give you six yards of skirm-
ish line" is one of the favorite gags
worked on WAC rockies during
their first couple of days in camp.
But by the end of the first of
their four weeks training, the re
cruits not only know the answer to
that one, but have learned to rec
ognize a pajama clad officer in the
dead of night and give her a snap
py salute, to speak Army jargon,
march in cadence, dress in three
minutes, make bed with corners
sharply squared, eat tray of chow
in less time than allowed, and many
another trick of brisk routine.
What they learn during their r.
hour a-day basic training will serve
them well long after they have been
mustered out of the corps.
They've discovered what an amaz-
ing amount of work can be accomp-
lished when a day is we'll organized.
They realize how much healthier
and happier they feel when part
of their time is spent out in the
sun, and air, and when they're so
busy that there isn't a moment to
spare in discomfort.
THEIR OUTLOOK CHANGES

over" 1 heard an auxiliary say to
another while we we're all bending
over tubs washing our "39 thread
