Unions Fight Cancer

Samuel Gompers the father Of organized labor, based
his philosophy on the strength of united action The word
union itself implies banding together to promote common
welfare.
Working people, all the world have found that they
can best market their commodtes-sFil and sweat -
through concerted effort No other group has learned as
well the necessity of united front.
Because of this realization organized labor today IS ap-
preaching many of its non-occupatona problems with the
same progressive outlook Group insurance for instance
This is why labor unions among the first to endorse
the American Cancer Society.
Cancer which satistcaly visits every other home IN
America has no social economic boundaries On the
whole one in eight of all Americans will die Of this dread

The American Cancer Society in the forefront of the
fight to control cancer This voluntary organization has

The Socay looks to labor organizations for help in It's pro-

our union of the weapons that be employed against
this disease that will kill at least 10000 organized workers
this year.
This can be done by distributing literature defining the
danger signs Of cancer listening to well informed speakers

Whdt Is Mr.. Draper Doing?

William Draper Jr. Undersecretary of the Army is
back from Japan with these recommendations
Controls on Japanese business must be removed"
Uncle Sam must provide $500000000 and do other things
to "make Japan self-supporting,"
Labor agrees that the Japs Germans and everyone else
should be sesuppotng but must not repeat the mis-
take made after World War l.
Then on the same plea, British and American nancers
and ndustriaiss- their governments-built up the
German and Jap "cartes which planned and launched
World War IL.
Before that war; Draper, was top official OF wan
Street banks, including Dillon Read which played big
part in financing Gelmanys rebirth of industrial and mill
tary might.
Is Mr. Draper thinking solely of making theIJapanese
and German people sefsupportng? Or is he rebuilding the
cartes-the vast foreign industrial combines with which
American and British Big Business had profitable ties?

BILLION GALLONS OF
ICE CREAM
By Henry Conklin

BY Henry COnkllu
Engineering Commentator
Americas ice cream industry
which got under way almost
a century ago with a produc-
ton record of a few hundred
gallons, is making plans to
serve a national appetite ex-
pected to demand a billion gal
Ions of ice cream a year by
1866.
That's nearly IA times the
consumption of 72,000,00O gal
Ions thirty years ago in 1915,
and twice the peak consump-
ton of 45O,OOO,00O gallons in
1915.
The 1916 record of 450,000,-
900 gallons was short-lived. In
1916 and 1947, the industry
achieved billion-dollar ranking
and was dishing it's product
out at a rate approaching $780,
100000 gallons. And produc-
ton reports so far in 1913 in
dictate still another record.
Although the industry was
founded back in 1851, it dates
it's mass production era from
about the turn of the century,
when electric motors began ia
king over the laborious hand
cranked freezer method.
Electronics as Latest Aids
Through the years many 9TH
er developments have contri-
buted vastly to the industry's
production and product. They
include electric refrigeration,
sterilization, pasteurization,
homogenization and robot
packaging systems.
The latest aide may turn out
to be a new science-electronic
heat-already one of electri-
city's most important industrial
applications.

CHILDREN HIT
HARDEST BY FIRE

Fires and burns account for
nearly one-fourth of all fatal
accidents to pre-school-age
boys, according to Metropoli-
tan Life Insurance Company's
Statistical Bulletin. The rate
jumps to almost two-fifths
among girls. Accidents now
outrank every other cause of
death for this age group and
have shown the least improve
ment over previous years.
Since 1880, child fatalities
from common diseases have
declined as much as rs to 90
per cent, whereas the accident
death rate for the same per-
lod has dropped only 9 per
cent for boys and 10 per cent
for girls.

ton reports that 3 out of every

His Word is like Himself-Un-

I firmly believe the set time
to bless Zion has come, and
while troublesome times come
upon the world, blessed times
will be ours if we remain faith
full to our trust.
In my last letter l told you
that a contract was let regard

ernacle. The contract has now
been completed and the build
ing is magnificent. All the Of
ficers, members and friends
are quite satisfied. Also, we

day | plan to meet the con-
tractor to get a quotation re-
garding the decorating of the

lieve Gods House should be
the best.
The authorities here are
contemplating having Mel
bourne a greater city. | also
believe Richmond is one of the
cities to be included as it is
next to Melbourne.
I remember telling our late
General Overseer Voliva that
God led us to purchase this
building, and He will aid us in
going forward from lions
headquarters in Australia. We
owe nothing to date and have
a surplus in the bank! And
why shouldn't we? After all,
the lot belongs to lions God!
Earth, gold, silver, cattle-all
are His, and we are His chill
dren!
The white robed choir un-
der the new conductor is doing
splendidly; also the young
mems Bible Class is still going
strong. These dear young men
are a great help to me in the
work. We are determined to
distribute the literature -
Leaves of Healing, and the
Bible School Lessons by dear
Overseer Darms, which are
really good! Also Zion tracts.
God is enabling us to sell more
and more, and of course, dear
General Overseer, according
to the ruling of the Govern
ment at Canberra, that no cash
can leave Australia, you get
none of it.
Also, God has been good to
many who have been very i'll,
and who are now praising God.
And there we are again-why
should they not be healed? Is
this not one of the reasons the
dear Son of God came from
heaven where there is no sick
ness, to earth to destroy the
works of the Devil-Acts 1:
38.
Enclosed please find finan-
cial report for the month of
