VIII Oppose
PinoY Labor
Importation

A resolution to oppose the I'M
portation of Filipino labor from
the Philippines to the United
States to be employed in Califor-
MIA agricultural work will be pre-
sented at the 1857 I.L.W.U. con-
vention in San Francisco early
next month.
The resolution will be presented
by Chris Mensalvas, president of
Cannery Workers Union, Local
81, IL.W.U., who will attend the
convention as delegate of Local 81.
This move has been prompted by
the signing recently Of a contract
between the Philippine Govern
ment and California employers
whereby 1000 Filipino 1aborers
will be imported from the Philip
pines to work in California.
Mr.. AIensalvas cites in his reso-
luton that 1.-The big banker-farn-
ers, spearheaded by the Associated
Farmers of California are cur
rently busy in recruiting contract
foreign labor in the Philippines,
South Korea and Japan to be used
solely in the agricultural fields.
'oThe obvious motive on the part
of the farmers to recruit labor
from these countries, despite the
fact that there is now available
Mexican labor and native man
power to man the fields" Mr..
MensaIvas argues, "is to under
mine the unionization of these
workers by pitting one nationality
against another in the labor mar
ket."
1.-THE use of these foreign work.
ers will tend to lower the general
standard of living III such areas
where they are employed, accom-
panied by low wages, poor housing
facilities and sub-standard work.

This was followed by an official

gram. They are Argentina, Free
China, Korea, Mexico, Pakistan,
Panama, Romania and Uruguay
Thirty other nations have re-
piled that this tournament is in
deed a great international sport
ing program and are at present
taking up the matter of partici-
pating with their respective asso-
Citations. Teams of amateur box
ing champions from Canada, as
well as Hawaii, are also expected
to participate.
Mr.. Neff also states that the
Department of Defense plans to
enter a team of amateur boxing
champions from the Army, Navy,
Air Force and Marines, who will
represent the United States. The
Department of State is currently
contracting all the proper officials
in all foreign posts through their
agents, inviting their country to

program and informing them of

by the Seattle and Tacoma Ath-
letic Commissions.

VISION AND GRADES
BY Gordon Bixel. O. d., Bluffton. Ohio

Thomas Edison, prolific inventor
and one of the worlds great
geniuses, was considered a dull boy
by his teacher. Although nothing is
known about his visual condition in
youth, we know he read extensively.
Most of his reading was far beyond
his years. We may or may not have
any Edisons in our present genera
tion, but we do have many intel
ligent children in our schools, who
see well but are doing poor work
because of visual problem. Their
parents and teachers often consider
them dull student, lazy or at least
poor at "book learning"
Such children seldom read more
than the funnies and as little of
their lessons as they can to get by.
Some ambitious parents put pres
sure on such students by telling
them they must get good grades or
else! Such child is in tough spot.
Because of his visual condition,
reading for more than very brief
period is intolerable. Yet in order to

parents are also determined, the
congenial parent-child relationship
often comes to an abrupt end.
Fortunately in some instances the
child developes some occular symp-
toms and is taken to a visual spec

occular symptoms and must find
some other way of satisfying their
parents. Deceiving them by feigning
sickness or cheating in school is
commonly employed. They'll try any
thing that will excuse their
shortcomings.
If child does not like to read
or does poorer work in school than
his intelligence quotient indicates,
he may, and often does, have
visual problem. Such a problem can
be present even if the child sees
well and has no headaches or other
visual disturbances. A competent
optometrist can determine if the poor
grades are caused by his vision.

NelU Storm Sash
Can Take Fall
Out Of Autumn

Take a pinch of winters first
chill wind, mix with heavy ladder
stir in flock of bulky, old-fashioned
storm windows and doors, and let
simmer under the hot collar of a
long g-suffering home-owner.
This is a surefre recipe for an
aching back and a ruined weekend
at best, or a dangerous fall at worst.
Yet it happens every year about this
time as thousands of home-owners
finally force themselves to brace the
house against winter.
But modern combination wood
doors and windows have eliminated
the back-breaking labor and danger
of making this seasonal changeover.
These all-season combinations con-
sist of a sturdy ponderosa pine
frame that stays in place all year
round, with lightweight glass and
screen inserts that are changed ac-
cording to the season.
The storm and screen panels are
inserted from inside the house. Flip
the little catches in the frame and
it's done, with no precarious leaning
out the window or balancing on 20
foot ladders.
Combinations are available. thru
lumber and building material
dealers. They come in sizes, shapes
and styles to fit all standard win
dow openings.
In addition to good appearance,
wood storm windows have the adj
vantage of being good insulation
against cold. Of all window mater
ials, wood is the poorest conductor
of heat, which, in winter, means the
wood parts of the window help keep
expensive heat indoors where it be-
longs.
