Here's the recipe that banishes fat
and brings out all the natural attract*

Every morning take one half tea
spoonful of Kruschen Salts in a glass
of hot water before breakfast—cut
down on pastry and fatty meats—go
light on potatoes, butter, cream and
sugar—in 4 weeks get on the scales
and note how many pounds of fat
have vanished. Notice also that you
have gained in energy—your skin i$
clearer—you feel younger in body—
Kruschen will give you a joyous
surprise.
Get a bottle of Kruschen Salts—the
cost is trifling and It lasts 4 weeks. If

Happy be you this year,
In anticipations!
Many happy returns of the day!
How many? Ah, there's the rub
As many as you wish, so they be

So long as security, with occasional
slices of larded ham—
So long as health of the bodily func

Or even the sight of loved ones, and
joy in their happiness—
Or work, with the gladness of ac
complishment—
Or service, the privilege of giving
Or appreciation, of beauty, of
friendship—
While these last, let the days re
turn—
But one old man said, "I can no
longer be Pope—•
"It is better to die."
When you are only a log on the
stream—
Happiness then is in passing on.
The best evidence that you are a
"regular" labor unionist is your
patronage of union label products and
union services.

COURT ORDERS
RETURN
Of Companies Fleeing To
Escape Union Contract
New York City (ILNS)—Supreme
Court Justice Philip J. McCook has
ordered two affiliated dress concerns
to move their machinery back to New
York, take back the union workers
they fired, and pay damages which
these workers suffered by loss of
wages. And, sweeping as was the
decision in itself, it became more so
because Justice McCook laid down the
rule that contracts like the one be
tween the union and the dress con
cerns must be enforced to fill up the
gap left by the passing of NRA.
The contract was made in February,
1936, between the Popular Priced
Dress Manufacturers' Group, Inc., on
the one side, and the International La
dies' Garment Workers' Union and the
Joint Board of the Dress and Waist
makers of New York. The two affil
iated firms were members of the em
ployers' union, and were bound by the
contract. One part of the contract
pledged the employers not to move
their shops to any place which can be
reached only by paying more than
a 5 cent fare.
"Strong Measures"" Needed
"The logic of the situation calls for
application of strong measures," Jus
tice McCook said. "With the end of
NRA appeared a new need for such
contracts as the one in suit.
"Without a remedy as wide as that
need, unscrupulous employers of la
bor will be tempted to play one com
munity off against another, unlawfully
depriving New York city of her busi
ness and her inhabitants of their live
lihood."
Justice McCook attributed the "un
fortunate result" to a "head-on col
lision between a union conscious of
power and an employer with an un
enviable business record, an aggres
sive personality and a determination
to make a success this time at all
costs."
Firms Sought Cheap Labor
"It is clear that the intention was
at one stroke to get rid of the obli
gations of the contract and to obtain
cheaper non-union labor in a more in
dulgent community."
David Dubinsky, president of the
International Ladies' Garment Work
ers' Union, and Julius Hochman, head
of the joint board, were jubilant at the
decision.
"The decision makes clear," said
Hochman, "that no employer may
evade his responsibilities by taking
the jobs out from under his workers
by seeking sub-standard conditions in
rural areas hitherto untouched by
industry."
Brooklyn Bus
Drivers Strike
New York City (ILNS)—Union em
ployes of the Brooklyn Bus Corpora
tion struck on December 29, partially
crippling service on 21 lines in Brook
lyn and four between Brooklyn and
Queens.
Members of Local 1099 of the
Amalgamated Association of Street,
Electric Railway and Motor Coach
Employes of America authorized the
strike.
The union demanded reinstatement
of 30 men dismissed for union activity
and restoration of a former wage
scale. Under the old scale, union diffi
cials said, drivers started at 50 cents
an hour and worker up to 69 in five
years. Under the present scale they
start at 40 and advance to 70 in 11
years.
The union also asked readjustment
of running time, contending that some
scheduler made it necessary to drive
at dangerous speeds.
