AN UNFoRGETTABLE ACT


Zone of the most horrible things
In our generation was the action
of a mad degenerate who took the
Cross of God and bent each of the
four ends and made it into a SYM
boil of hate and destruction and
murder, and put it on a flag and
flew that flag above Dachau and
Buehenwald and Stalag Seventeen.
The 'BrownshirtS" did that and 40,
100000 men and women and child
rem died horribly because Hitler
and his gang did that.
"All mankind shuddered at the
blasphemy of turning the Cross
into a SWastika and making it
symbol of the Beast from the
Abyss let loose again on all man.
kind.
But consider then the disgrace
full and disgusting proclamation Of
holy things that took place a few
DAYS ago in our own State. This
hooded band met at the great gra-
mite mountain that GeorgianS had
set aside as memorial to such
men as Lee and jackson ana
Stuart - men of courage who look
ed their foes in the face and
what did they do?
They took the Cross of God and
smeared it with asphalt and kero-
sene and they set fire to it and
they burned it like stovewood.
"They burned it, they said, as a
symbol that, now that the war is
over, they could come out of hid
ing under dead logs and start
strewing disunity and hate about
our State and our country once
more.

 Chicago, May 17-(NEA)-Eight years ago 254 Chicago children be- tween 12 and 14 had their futures cut out for them: they were almost certain to spend their lives as social liabilities probably in state institu- fions. They were feeble-minded.
 Today they are doing quite well for themselves.
 Almost all of them-03 per cent -are working, at wages averaging e32 a week. One of them is earn ing e04 weekly.
 Fifteen girls and three boys have married. Eleven of these families have had children, all normal GAVE CHILDREN A CHANGE
 Fourteen, including three girls, have seen military service.
 They have been saved from the social scrap heap largely through the efforts of a young woman teacher who disagreed with the generally fataIstic attitude of American education regarding men, tai defectives.
 She is Dr. Bernardine Schmidt, now of Indiana State Teachers College at Terre Haute, who as a Chicago public school teacher set out to prove that these 254 "un- teachables' could be taught. For three years she had them in a special class of her own which em- phasized free activity and express sion.

 "The children found new interest in writing their own thoughts when they could say what was in their hearts. They wrote and pro- duced plays and operettas, they published a weekly newspaper.
 Radio and recordings were used to teach reading and build up word meanings for children who had special difficulties in associating the printed word with other visual forms such as pictures and dia- grams. In science and social studies much information was re- ceived from the radio. And al- ways when the children were work ing the radio was tuned to favor ite program for sheer relaxation"

Out at the ] & L plant in Hazelwood
the Veterans of Foreign Wars and
American Legion posts are also help
ing the strikers. "We're 100@o behind
the union," Commander William II.
Mcdonald of VFW Post PAT said.
"We've offered our kitchen facilities
to the union and we're always ready
to give the strikers money donations"
Commander William Lewis of Le-
gion Post 538, who would not go on
record as far as the present wage
fight is concerned, assured the report
er that "we are taking care of our
boys, many Of whom are among the
strikers. Whenever they'll need some-
thing, well always help them."
According to Pres. Thomas Flaherty
Of Steelworkers Local 1843, not only
veterans but many other community
organizations are giving all-out sup
port to the strikers. Money and food
donations are constantly pouring IN
to union headquarters, where an en-
thusiastic crew of women workers
prepare hot meals for the pickets.

Is Dominant
ORGANIZATION Now

Miami, Fla.-(FP).-A declaration
that the American Federal tion of Labor
is "beyond cavil or peradventure, the
most representative and dominant la
Dor organization in America" came
from Pres. John l.. Lewis of the
United Mine Workers Jan. 20 as he
assumed his seat as 18th -presl-
dent Of the AFL.
Lewis said the United Mine Work
ers "came back to the federation be-
cause we feel it is a constructive ac-
tion in the interest of all labor and
in the interest of stabilized economy
in the country"
The UNIV chief declined to be
drawn into any criticism of the ClO,
nor did he give any encouragement TO
reports he would use his influence to
persuade other unions to leave the
CIO and return to the AFL.
"Unity in labor politics in America
is desirable" he said. ats attain
ment is labor's task, labor's obliga-
tion. Labor owes an obligation to the
country to place its internal house IN
order'
Lewis said the return of the miners
was another indication that both or
ganizations had gone on record as
being protectors of the Liberties OF
the people and of American free inst-
tutions against internal and external
foes"
"There are So million persons earn
ing living in the U. S. today" Lewis
said, and they and their dependents
constitute the bulk of the population
and of the nations consumers.
"Assuredly those engaged in pro-
ductive enterprise and their families
are entitled to have their opinions
increasingly considered. The veal or
woe of the u. S., as representative
republic, is dependent to a large ex-
tent upon the future policy and ac-
tions of those who work for living,
Their only articulate voice is through
their trade unions. Labor in America
is destined to play an increasingly inn
portant role in the national existence"

Merchants on Pittsburgh's south

drinks.
