the statement. "Our organization

"The announcement now that a vote

"Our organizations welcome the

We have organized local units from
coast to coast and we have enlisted
the support of powerful friendly or

found the people convinced that Vol
steadism is not only unsound, but that
it is a positive menace to democratic
institutions. They are sick and tired
of the hypocrisy of it and they see in
the growing power of outlaw organi

squarely by rooting the ground from
under them. They have grown up on
Volsteadism and they will remain un

Gotham Firemen Press Fight
For 8-Hour Working Day
New York City (ILNS)—The fire
men of New York city will not de
clare a moratorium on their efforts
to gain an eight-hour working day,
even though the year is all but over,
according to statements issued by
Vincent J. Kane, president of the
Tjniformed
Firemen's Association.
The bill for an eight-hour working
day as originally introduced into the
municipal assembly provides that the
bill be effective the first of the year.
In the event there is not favorable
action before 1931 expires the bill
will be introduced again and the
campaign will be continued next year.
Signatures to the eight-hour day
petition have now gone beyond the
two millionth mark, and before the
end of the year 2,500,000 are expect
ed to be on the petition.
New York Factory Jobs

Albany, N. Y. (ILNS)—The num

The net decrease from October to
November was 3 per cent for employ

rolls. As a result of these changes,!
the index of factory employment,
based upon the average 1925-1927 as
100, dropped to 69 and the index of
payrolls to 59. Average weekly earn
ings were less than $25 for the first!
time since 1922.

According to these figures, 83,428,

NEW YEAR'S
CALL
By HAROLD L. COOK
this holiday season let us
draw up our chairs before
the Fireside of Friendship
with those whose happiness is our
happiness. Let us in memory of
old days and old times talk over
the friendships that have made
the past so worth-while and that
give such courage and promise
$q the incoming year.
The Ralston Paint Co.
ANUARY first was hanging
heavily on the hands of Mr.
and Mrs. Wilier. They felt
that they should do some
thing to distinguish It from
other holidays or from Sun
day, but four o'clock In the
afternoon arrived without
anything happening to Im
press upon them that they had really
entered upon a new year.
The New England town where they
lived lay peacefully under Its blanket
of white, and probably most of its
forty thousand inhabitants were as
peacefully dozing in their chairs, sat
isfied with their creature comforts,
and thankful that they were not as
other people.
Mr. Wilier was roused from his
quiet doze by the clang of the door
bell. "Are the Misses Baker In?"
queried a throaty voice, as he opened
the door and saw an elderly couple
standing on his porch.
"The Misses Baker!" he exclaimed.
"You mean Miss Bell and Miss
Louise?"
"Of course," replied the voice.
"Why, the Bakers don't live here,"
Mr. Wilier explained "They live on
Caroline street They haven't lived
here in over twenty years."
"Thank you," was the only re
sponse. "My wife and I just thought
we'd pay our New

agine that!" shout
ed Mr. Wilier to
his wife, when he
had closed the
o o e e w
ises calling on the
Baker girls here,
and we've been In
this house our
selves for over
twenty years! Mr.
Lewis didn't even
seem surprised
when it was I
who opened the
door."
"Well, of all things!" laughed Mrs,
Wilier coming down the stairs. "But
do you know, John, that gives me an
Idea. Suppose we go around the cor
ner and call on Mrs. Crump. We
haven't been there In a long time,
and it might cheer her up."
"All right," Mr. Wilier replied.
"Mrs. Crump is getting on, and I don't
suppose we can wish her many more
Happy New Years. She must be over
ninety now."
"Yes, ninety-three," said Mrs. Wil
ier, drawing on her rubbers. "And we
haven't dropped In to see her in some
time."
"How long is it anyway?" asked
Mr. Wilier.
"I don't know," replied his wife,
"but we certainly haven't been there
since we are living In this house."
So, after twenty years, Mrs. Crump
received a New Year's call from her
friendly neighbors, the Wlllers.

accomplished nothing of real impor
