.IOI5LESS INSURANCE
CONDEMNED BY WOLL
New York.—"Unemployment insur
ance will not solve the problem of
unemployment," declares Matthew
Woll, third vice president of the
American Federation of Labor, in a
speech before the convention of the
International Longshoremen's Asso
ciation. "To my mind it would ag
gravate unemployment and make it
more permanent. What is needed is
constant lowering of the hours of
work per day and days of work per
week so that all will be given an
opportunity to be employed. The
sooner we have the five-day week the
better it will be for industry itself."
Woll asserted that wage increases
rather than wage reductions are the
major influence that should be ap
plied to bring about business recov
ery.

HOT AND COLD DRINKS
THERri
are some women who can
drink tea with enjoyment every
afternoon In the whole year—women
who find hot tea as bracing on a
scorching mid-summer afternoon as
they do in December or January, and
very much more acceptable than an
iced lemonade. But the majority of
Americans hold the belief, doubtless
based on accurate observations of
their own reactions, that hot tea Is a
most inappropriate afternoon beverage
any time between mid-May and some
time In October.
Well, if you don't serve tea In the
afternoon In warm weather, how
should you serve your cooling bever
age? If you have guests at "tea" time
should you offer them a cooling drink
as an alternative for tea? Should it
be brought to them on a tea wagon,
or should they be brought to it—served
in a punch bowl in some cool retreat?
It is a fact that much of the cere
mony of tea drinking is lost when you
drink some sort of sweet-sour iced
drink at "tea" time. And when you
assemble friends around a table to
dispense such a beverage with cakes
or wafers It seems like playing Hum
let with the Hamlet left out or mak
ing an omelet without the eggs.
So don't attempt to make much
of a ceremony of it: A maid may
bring glasses of some cooling drink
all poured out on little plates and
pass them to you, or you may have
a punch bowl filled with it placed in
an end of the living room or on the
veranda and then guests may help
themselves or each other to the bev
erage as they wish it.

SILK WORKERS
Strike Against Wage Cuts
in Three Mill Towns
y
Philadelphia, Pa, (ILNSJ—Indus
trial war in silk now rages on three
fronts—Allentown and Perkasie, Pa.,
and Paterson, N. J.
In the most important section,
Paterson, workers in 10 mills are on
strike against wage cuts and a gen
eral strike looms as the result of the
failure of Paterson employers to prop
erly gauge the present necessity of
maintaining wage standards.
The most hopeful indication of suc
cess for the Paterson workers appears
in the current negotiations for a mer
ger of the two unions, the United
Textile Workers of America and the
Associated Silk Workers. Carl Hq|»
derman, vice president of the hosiery
workers' union, is the moving figure
behind the merger.
United under one banner and with
one goal before them, the Patersoa
silk workers feel a successful strug
gle can be waged for the return of
proper working conditions to Pater
son. Equally determined to strike un
til their demands of union recognition
and a living wage are met, are the
Allentown silk strikers.
The third battlefront is a small one
but highly significant. The Van
Houton Mill in Pergasie, known
throughout the country as one of the
"hardest nuts to crack," today is shut
down through a strike of 50 weavers
against a 50 per cent cut.
They, too, demand union recogni
tion and a standard scale that will
prevent the introduction of new ma
terials into the looms that are hardef
to weave and result in lowered pro
duction and a consequent reduction in
earnings.

Summary and Digest of
Important Events of thi
Week, Here and Abroad
The Canadian house of commoift
on July 20 passed a bill providing f6t
payment by the government of 75 ptfr
cent of the cost of .old age pensions,
50 per cent of which are now paid lljjr
the government.
Need for unemployment and other
relief during the coming winter will
be more acute than last winter, even
if business improves, and relief funds
must be largely supplied by munici
pal and county appropriations, the
president's emergency committee for
employment has been informed by
the National Association of Commu
nity Chests and Councils.
France has reduced her armed
forces to an irreducible minimum un
der present conditions in Europe, she
notified the League of Nations on
July 21, in reply to the league's re
quest for information and suggestions
to facilitate the 1932 disarmament
conference.
To suggest that maintenance ofway
workers on the railroads, already un
derpaid, be asked to take wage cuts
is inhuman and cannot be considered,
President F. H. Fljozdal, of the
Brotherhood of Maintenance of Way
Employes, recently declared
President Rubio of Mexico has or
dered a cut in the wages of federal
employes, saying that it is necessary
because of the decrease hr national
income.
