Anderson, 126 So Broad MIDDLETOWN BUSINESS AGKN 1* Autocrats have used many forms for their harness of control— When chains of slavery grew too heavy for masters to carry— They threw the whole weight onto the shoulders of labor— Holding only slender reins of a liv ing wage, or even less— Secure in assurance that labor would come, to get bread— So long as land, material and tools were the master's— Always the bulwarks defending the master's rule— Have been built deep on ideas, that tethered the workers' minds— Linked sometimes by superstition, or again by Jove of country-— HOW MODERN WOMEN LOSE FAT SAFELY Gain Physical Vigor —Youthful nets With Clear Skin and Viva cious Eyes That Sparkle With Glorious Health Here's the recipe that banishes fat and brings out all the natural attrac tiveness that every woman possesses.

Fremgen. 622 Ridgelawm Ave. By respect for law, or even ambi tion's will-o-the-wisp— Until dawning intelligence separated love of God and man from gold— Until travel and culture opened the gates of brotherhood— Until political action took down the bars of unequal law— And social action revealed the futil ity of individual existence— Long leads the lane, climbing up to the heights of freedom— Baffling the turns, following the mountain sides— Distant the goal, and dim is the twi light leading— But clearer and brighter the vision that beckons on— Surprises meet the adventurers up from the hollows— Dangers that yawn down abysses unknown— Sudden delights coming out of the mists and the gloom— Thrills that stir latent powers un dreamt of before— Fulfillments of hopes long for gotten— These are fruits of the trail going up! Democracy is not a completed accom plishment— It is a road, and a method, a goal and a dream. The life of labor unions depends upon a healthy diet of union labels shop cards and buttons. Subscribefer The PreM* *Ts\ 4*r LaborQueries Questions and Answers on La bor: What It Has Done Where It Stands on Problems of the Day Its Aim and Program Who's Who in the Ranks of the Organized Toilers, etc., etc. Q.—When did the American Federa* tion of Labor first act on the difl* placement of workers by machines? A.—Displacement of labor has been source of anxiety to American or ganized labor almost since its begin ning. One of the first formal actions on displacement of labor was taken by the 1905 A. F. of L. convention, which authorized a committee to investigate the matter. Q.—What prominent educator was once bitterly criticized by organized labor for comparing a "scab7' to a hero? A.—The late Charles W. Eliot, pres ident of Harvard University, who was reported to have said in 1902 at Bos ton that a "scab" was a "very good type of modern hero." REPORT SHOWS BIG CAIN IN BUSINESS New York City (ILNS)—Poor's Investment Advisory Service has is sued a report that present business conditions justify all the optimsm shown n the progress of recovery. Compared with last year, Poor's report says, steel production is up 38 percent, auto production 12 per cent, electric power production 11,9 per cent, commercial loans 12.9 per cent, and car loading 24.1 per cent. The report also notes a big and unexpected jump in October in orders for machinery and machine tools. It says: 'For October the National Machine & Tool Builders' Association index of new orders was 136.5 against 118.5 in September and 102.9 for October, 1935. The index for domestic machine tool business alone was 105.4 for Oc tober of this -J^ear, compared with 82.9 in September, and 79.5 in October, 1935. 'Thus, it is apparent that present business reflects increasing demand at home rather than foreign baying stimulated by rearming. "Now that operating schedules in most lines are approaching normal, manufacturers are finding it neces sary to replace obsolete equipment and to install new machinery for ex pansion purposes. The buying move ment further testifies to the belief of business men that they will reap ade quate profits in the investment of new capital." The report closes by pointing out that the increased 'buying of con sumer goods as impressive." STRIKERS At Big Celanese Plant Win Wage Increase Cumberland, Md. (ILNS)—The three weeks' strike of 9,000 Celanese plant workers here has been settled, the workers having gained an average of 12^ per cent in wages and the prestige of their union, the United Textile Workers of America, having been greatly increased. Commenting on the settlement, Francis J. Gorman, vice president of the United Textile Workers of Amer ica, who took an active part in the conduct of the strike, said: 'The agreement which settles for the 20-day strike of the Celanese workers is another major victory for the organizational program and policy of the committee for industrial or ganization. This strike was won, first, through the courage and mili tancy of the synthetic yarn workers themselves, and, second, because of the splendid cooperation and support of the CIO unions in Cumberland and the executive council of the United Mine Workers of America. 'We feel that we have cracked the Solid South. Cumberland is the key to Southern rayon, and approximately 88 per cent of the installed capacity of the industry is in the South. 'Officials of the United Textile Workers of America and the Synthetic Yarn Federation will meet in Wash ington to map out the next steps in our campaign to organize this indus try. Our aim is to completely organ ize the rayon and synthetic yarn in dustry. We will move into the other centers immediately." Buying "fair" products will offset the selling of unfair ones.
