Campaign For
NufionoI Health
Bill Gets Support

New York (FP)-The campaign
for national health bill gained
widened support Aug. 81 when the
Committee for the Nations Health
annuonced appointment of four new
members, including bank vice presi-
dent and corporation lawyer.
The new members included Barry
Bingham, editor and president of the
Louisville (Ky.) Courier Journal;
Carl c. Lang, vice president of the
Continental Bank G. Trust Co. of New
York; V. Henry Rothschild, widely
known New York corporation lawyer;
and DR.. Raymond M. Walls, chair
man Of the dental economics COM
mittee of the American Dental Assn.
The committee was established to
organize support for national health
insurance act and is attempting to
obtain congressional approval of the
Wagner Murray Dingell bill AFL
Pres. William Green and CIO Pres.
Philip Murray are among the groups
vice presidents.
Bingham, in accepting the appoint
ment, declared: con behalf of the
many citizens of Kentucky and the
south and the nation who have never
obtained the basic right to decent
medical care, | indorse the purposes
of the Committee for the Nations
Health. regard the preservation Of
our peoples health as not only a
prime obligation of a democratic So
ciety but as an intelligent investment
in the future prosperity of the U. S."
The Wagner Murray Dingell bill
would provide hospital, medical care
and health insurance paid for by en-
ployees and the government. The 10th
Congress held hearings ON the meas
ure but failed to take any action on it.

AFL MAN TO ATTEND
MONTREAL ILO FARLEY

Washington (FP)-Assistant Sec.
of Labor David Morse announced
Sept. that the labor delegate to the
Montreal meeting of the international
Labor Organization would be chosen
from the AFL.
Morse said Labor Sec. Schwellcn-
bach had made the decision to send
an AFL man to the Sept. 10 parley.
Previously the ClO had claimed that
naming of a CIO representative
would be "a long-delayed act of JUS
tice"
The AFL choice in the past has
been Robert Watt

probably respect CIO picketlines,
Capt. Harry Martin of the Masters
Mates & Pilots wired NMU head
quarters that his members would not
cross their lines.
On the west coast Secretary Harry
Lundeberg of the Sailors Union Of
the Pacific announced that a MEM
bership meeting had unanimously
voted to end their strike late Sept. IL
after hearing that Steelman had
evolved formula allowing them the
$2250 monthly increase which the
Wage Sterilization Board had twice
turned down.
Also in San Francisco President v.
]. Malone of the Marine Firemen
Oilers Watertenders & Wipers was
comforting Sept. 13 with a Labor
Dept. representative about ending his
unions 1-day strike. Although the
Steelman formula cleared a $5 in
crease for some classifications in the
marine firemen's union, Malone was
reportedly seeking an additional $40
which would apply to all ratings.
Settlement of both AFL and CIO
claims would not eliminate two other
strike threats which could lead to a
new nationwide walkout Sept. 80, in
volving the International Longshore-
mems & Warehousemen's Union and
the Marine Engineers Beneficial
Assn.
Contracts of hoth unions eynire
Sept. 80 and no settlement of their
demands is in the immediate offing.
Although the longshore strike would
be limited to the west coast, strike
by the MEBA, which has men on
board virtually every deep-water ship,
could cause a new national tieup since
the Committee for Maritime Unity
has promised to respect picketlines of
the two unions.

Bumpety-bump went the stock mar
ket. Nobody knew why.
But anyway, with everything head
ed for prosperity, just as it was
when Calvin Coolidge was in the
White House, down went the prices Of
the so-called blue chip stocks.
No "crash" could result because
stocks are not held on margins these
days. But it made a lot Of people
think, just the same.
Well, here are some things they
might add into the mixture about
which they have been thinking.
One thing is this: The pile Of con
.sumer goods is beginning to build up
at tremendous speed. In a few lines
manufacturers can see the saturation
point.
Production speeds are far ahead Of
pre-war days. A lot Of folks forgot
that.
The second thing is this: Half Of
the consuming families lack the buy
ing power needed to make the mass
market fully active. That is Mr.. BIG
in the group Of facts.
The main facts about consuming
ability have been set forth in this
column within the past month. They
are striking and startling. They
knock into cooked hat the ideas that
have been held by lot Of bankers
and a lot Of sales departments.
There is only one thing that can
balance the lack Of cash buying power
in that enormous segment Of popula-
tion and that, like it or not, is con-
sumer credit.
That's where the Federal Reserve
Board sticks in its two cents worth
tand puts on the brakes-plenty.
The board assumes a "do good" at
titude and does no good to anyone.
Those who have sought to restrict
consumer credit in the past have set
forth two main arguments. First, the
'little man" needs protection. Sec
ond, enlarged consumer credit is
dangerous.
Well, why should the 'little man"
be told what he may not do, any more
than big men are told.
Lawyer Jones can 90 to his bank
and borrow whatever the banker will
lend him, for the best rates he can
get and for any purpose that suits
his fancy.
Bill Smith, worker, can borrow so
bucks if he can satisfy the govern
ment that he wants the money for
purposes which the government ap-
proves, with names, dates and rea-
sons, all set forth.
How government get that way is a
war-baby story and too long for now.
And all this is done by one mon
who sits by himself in the ornate of
fices of the Federal Reserve Board.
He is doing important things to our
national economy and they are NOT
all good,
The highest overall figure for con-
sumer credit in the United States was
about ten billion dollars, which in our
enormous national income picture is

It's a
Great Sysfem!
By JOHN PAINE. Federated Press

One year ago, ZIP pointed out how
inconsistent it was for Gen. Mac
Arthur to be cosying up to the Japa-
nese ruling classes while the u. S.
was taking tough policy with Ger
many. Ever sensitive to criticism, the
government is doing something about
that Inconsistency.
It's beginning to cosy up to the
German ruling classes.
The meat industry no longer tries
to cover its industry-strike with fig
leaf. When exorbitant profits are
curbed, it not only shuts down but
boasts about it.
And yet politicians, can't under
stand why the people sometimes want
to take over these "private" indus
tries from their owners!
Add, famous remarks of famous
men:
"There is no emergency."-Presi-
dent Truman.
Republic Steel Corp. paid good
money for a worker opinion survey
to discover that "many workers feel
they are working their fingers to the
bone only to increase the exorbitant
profits to the stockholders.
A glance at any good labor paper
would have given them the same in
formation: water runs downhill, fire
burns and scabs smell bad.
How do we know? We conducted an
opinion survey.
President Manuel RoXas of the
Philippines really has his finger
caught in the wringer.
Jose Laural, Jap puppet president
of the Philippines now on trial for
collaboration, keeps remembering out
loud when Roxas was an important
member of his puppet cabinet.
Little fascist diplomats, little kings
in Greece,
Are the kind of dastards lousing up
our peace.
Little men in Wall ST., little profits
piling,
Are the guys who give the worms
a cause for smiling.
Little men in Congress, jumping at
their bidding,
Little generals shouting, "lets get
tough-no kidding!"
Little atom bombs, impatient to be
sroaring,
To make us into angles in the blue
a-soring.
Little men and women all around
the world
Are the only hope that war flags
can be furled;
Little door bells rung, little ballots
voted,
Little demonstrations, duly seen
and noted;
Little unions growing bigger, little
people shouting, "Cease!"
They're the ones who'll bring us a
working peoples peace.
The Democratic Administration got
it's whole foreign policy from Republi-
can Senator Taft, says COP spokes-
man.
Is that a boast, a confession, or a
tip-off, brother?
The dove of peace has dropped the
olive branch along the way. It's been
so busy picking the lice out of it's
feathers it hasn't had time for any
thing else

Treaders Crush Highly Touted House Of
David Five; Potomac Diners Also Win

the Ludwig quint with four minutes
to go, but Moss and Barnhart ban
ished all hopes for a victory with a
brace of buckets that clinched every
thing for the Treaders.
Moss, Barnhart and Muster all
played excellent ball for the victors.
Coach Mel Henry's accuracy was
cut down by an injury to his hand,
and Fred Davis, usually good for Is
counters, was covered like hawk
all afternoon by the gangling Wash
ington.
For this Sundays double-bill Man
ager Jimmie Riser has booked the
Baltimore Nets to appear in the
main go against the Treaders, with
the Diners tangling with the Tigers
again in the rubber game of their
three-game set. The Nets have been
strengthened considerably since
their first trip to this city, when they
lost by single point and should
force the Treaders to the limit to
come out with another victory.
Better be on hand early, as another
capacity throng is expected at the
pint-sized Armory.

Gus Ludwig's Treaders bounced
back from their shellacking of the
week before at the hands of the
Dover Flyers and turned the tables
on the highly touted Colored House
of David five, before an overflow
crowd at the Armory last Sunday,
winning to the tune of 81 to ~. The
bewhiskered cagers put up a real
fight for two periods but by the
second half they were all burned
out, leaving the Treaders to coast
in from there
In the first game the Potomac
Diners evened up their series with
the Colored Tigers at one apiece,
when they came out victorious by
a 44-42 count. The outcome was in
doubt until the final seconds, when
Harry Aarn ported one to sew it up
for the Diners.
The Treaders and Davids battled
on even terms in the opening half of
the nightcap, neither being able to
secure decisive advantage. The
Ludwig attack, around pivot-man
Freddie Davis, was bottled up COM
pletely by the tight guarding of
center Frank Washington of the
visitors, forcing Mel and company to
resort to long shots and pick-offs
along the sidelines for their points
Joe Moss noted mostly in the past
for his defensive work, proved that
he has an eye for the cords too, by
sinking in pair of double-deckers
from the 30-foot region and couple
more under the basket.
The first quarter found the Tread
ers in front 14-12 and they main
tanned that skimpy margin to lead
at the half, 1927.
They got most of their second
period tallies on peep" shots by
Johnny Muster, installed in the
breakaway slot on the fast break.
Cliff Robinson and Bruce Wright
retaliated for the Davids with sew
eral sensational casts from mid
court, to keep their club in the run
ming.
Well, that was the end of the ball
game. With the start of the third
quarter the Treaders took overall
control of the ball, scoring at will
and limiting the colored boys to
lone field goal and two foul losses.
Vic Barnhart brought the $50 fans
to their feet with a trio of hard-to-
make hook shots from the corners,
While Moss continued to pour 'em
in from all over the court. The
Treaders went into the final setto
with a comfortable margin, A to 81.
The Davids did their best to come
back in the last quarter, but their
best wasn't good enough. They be-
gan to hit on their long shots but
couldn't get off their feet to take
any rebounds. Robinson, a former
Globe Trotter, kept up his phenom-
email shooting to offset the goal
tossing of Muster of the Treaders.
They pulled to within 9 tales of
