CHILDREN In EUROPE
ARE STARVING

BY depriving them Of fats, proteins
and vitamins, the Germans are slowly
numbering the children of the occupied
countries of Europe. Seven ounces of
oil, or the normal requirement of three
days, is all the French people have had
for the last nine months. This infor-
nation was brought by Mile. Barlerin
who has just arrived from Lyon and
Paris where she has lived the past
eighteen years, and was contained in a
statement released today by Howard E..
Kershner, chairman of the Temporary
Council on Food for Europe's Children.
This small quantity of oil was made
available on French ration tickets dur
ing the months of September and Octo-
Der of 1913. There has been no oil
ration the entire summer preceding and
none since, up to the end of February,
1914.
During this period of time, the French
people were getting less than two ounces
of butter per month and only one small
portion of meat weekly. There had been
two eggs during the nine months period
and less than four ounces Of cheese per
month-fish once or twice a year. In
addition there was a fair amount of
bread, sugar, potatoes, fresh vegetables
and a little jam and macaroni.
In contrast it should be noted that the
German children and the German people
are still eating sufficiently well to main
tain health and strength. No physical
deterioration on account Of lack Of food
is taking place in Germany.
It will be noted that the French diet
is almost entirely lacking in fats, pro-
TENS and vitamins. Many people do
not live long on a diet of this kind and
children especially become a prey to all
kinds Of deficiency diseases. A whole
generation of children in the Nazi-occu-
pied countries of Europe is perishing or
being made permanently sub-normal in
mind and body. The consequences in
human life and for reconstruction are
toe terrible to contemplate. If the peo-
pie who share our ideals pass on tot the
picture the British commonwealth and

MONTANA CLIO
HOLDS CONVENTION

AG1AANAAAAAA a VII A AhL inc
Highlight resolutions passed by the
Council asked Congress to broadcast over
both major networks all important pro-
ceedings of Congress; supported the re-
election Of President Roosevelt by naming
Phillip Murray, president of the CLIO, to
the press conference board; give full
support to the Wagner-Murray-Dinge
bill; repeal the Smith Connally act; a
better working formula to take place of
the Little Steel formula; demanded vote
for cloture on the Poll Tax act; favored
a course in adult education in the greater
units of the university of Montana.
A telegram was sent to Governor Ford
asking that he take the same action as
was taken by the Governors of Nevada
and Utah relative to the appeal of the
miners contract to the War Labor Board.
Stirring addresses were given by both
Reid Robinson and James Leary. Both
appealed to delegates and visitors of the
convention for concerted political action
and continued support of progressive
people and President Roosevelt.
The theme of the whole convention
hinged on the defeat of r%eactionary con-
gressmen and senators, both state and
national. Every speaker brought out the
need Of a united progressive state politi-
cal council to include not only CLIO, AFL,
Farmers Unions and Railway Brother
hoods but also small progressive BUSH
nessmen and progressive individuals.
The International Wood Workers of
America sent delegates to the convention
for the first time. They were represent
ed by two locals, one from Bonner and
one from Missoula. Their membership
is small at present but is growing very
rapidly. The Oil Workers at Laurel and
Billings were represented. Their mem
bership is small at present but they are
extending their organization into the

News Of The Silver Bow
Trades & Labor Council

Not many people and not much was
transacted at the last session of the
Trades and Labor Council, largely due
to other important union activities
which took away the delegates, The
Women's Protective Union was holding
a special meeting in relation to wages Of
some departments of their Union, and
the CLIO convention at Missoula took
most of the miners and engineers. How
ever, the Trades Council did concur in
a request from the Musicians Union to
have the Montana congressional dele
gates support the Knutsen bill which has
for its purpose the reduction Of taxes
required by the government on people
operating cabaret and dance halls. The
tax at the present time is 80 per cent
Of sales during dancing hours. It used
to be 5 per cent. This increase, it was
explained, has caused many of the places
to close down and thus throw men ard
women Of the unions out of work. It was
also explained that the government is
actually losing money through this
charge in rates.
Leonard Ripper, who represents the
Trades and Labor Council on the Butte
Veterans Advisory Board. reported that
a meeting had been held in the audi
torium of the Montana Power Company
recently at which about 40 people were
present. The Butte Veterans Advisory
Board is a newly created organization
having representatives from labor unions.
industry and business, veterans groups
and civic groups. Its purpose is TO eatab-
lish a uniform system which would help
returning soldiers get jobs and also assist
them in cases of claims, rehabilitation
services, and so on. At the meeting just
referred to, John P. Duggan was elected
chairman, W. j. Pascoe, vice chairman;
Henry Young, treasurer. It was report
ed by Mrs. Ripper chat between five
hundred and six hundred persons had
been discharged from the armed forces
in the district Immediately adjacent to
Silver Bow county and that the problem
of placing returning men back into civil
life was presenting serious thought.
