Railway Clarks Empower Com. To Set Time For Nationwide Strike WASHINGTON, Sept. 3—A com mittee was empowered to fix the time for a nation-wide strike at a meet ing Monday of district chairmen of the Brotherhood of Railway Clerks, called to consider the break-down of negotiations with the railway express agency over a 44-hour work week. George M. Harrison, union presi dent, said after the day long meeting that the chairman “indorsed every thing the negotiating committee has done.” “It left authority in the hands of the negotiating committee to make / the strike effective-at a date and hour deemed advisable.” He indicated that no decision had yet been taken on a time for the walkout. The Brotherhood and the agency failed last week to agree on how to establish the 44-hour week for some 30,000 members of the clerks’ organi zation who now work 48 hours. The 44-hour week was recom-1 mended by an emergency fast-find ing commission named by President Roosevelt early in July to avert a threatened strike. After the collapse of the negotia tions, the Brotherhood contended the company refused to apply the new hours in “a fair and reasonable way*.’ The agency contended that the Broth erhood was demanding that the com pany go beyond the fact-finding board's report. HUDEPOHL BREWING CO. IS 100% UNION It will be of interest to the workers to know that the Hudepohl Brewing Co. is one of the oldest Brewing Com panies in Cincinnati, and has brewed fine beer for nearly 84 years.

WILL NEVER SURRENDER PRINCIPLE OF DEMOCRATIC CONTROL “The American Federation of Labor will never surrender the principle of democratic control or yield to minority force and domination. It will ever cling to Democratic ideals and will most jealously guard and protect the principles of De mocracy and Democratic procedure. It will never accept a dictator or submit to autocratic control. It is upon that sound and solid American basis it has taken its stand and there it will ever remain.**—WILLIAM GREEN, President American Federation of Labor. Peach Cake b Good Come-On A/f AYBE it’s an outing you want next Sunday, or help with the curtains. Whatever you wish from your family, a special Peach Cake for dinner will help win it. For right hand aid on this dessert, try the new self-rising flour now on the market. The new product has lots of advantages over the old self-rising flour, because action is slowed so that by the time your cake is mixed, the baking powder is only starting to work. Thus, you lose none of the “riain’ ” power. Here is the recipe to try with the new flour: Peaeh Cake Cream 7 tablespoons or a scant cup fat. Add % cup sugar. Cream until sugar has dissolved. Add 1 egg and stir in thoroughly (do not beat). Add % cup milk and ltt cups self-rising flour alternately. Add 1 teaspoon extract Pour into a greased and floured cake pan, and bake in moderate oven (350 degrees F.) about 30 minutes. Whip 1 pint whipping cream and add % cup sug ar. Split the cake. Spread lower half with 1 cup crushed peaches and half the whipping cream. Add top layer, and pile with another cup of crushed peaches and remaining cream. Garnish with peach slices. Juicy Fruit Roll “Makes” the Meal IXT'HEN the family tires of ber ries plain and berries fancy, try a new trick. It’s raspberry roll which folds juicy raspberries in a crisp pastry. It’s delicious, you’ll agree. An aid to shorter hours indoors is the new self-rising flour which makes hot biscuits, cakes and des serts in two shakes. The baking powder and salt are ready-mixed into it, thus a double saving of (1) price of these two ingredients, and (2) the time of sifting them with the flour. Try the new, speed flour in the following summer dessert: Raspberry Roll Make pastry by cutting V4 cup fat into 2 Vi cups self-rising flour until the mixture is thoroughly blended; adding cold water a little at a time to make a stiff dough. Roll pastry in a rectangular shape, keeping it about Vi inch thick. Brush lightly with 1 egg white diluted in 2 table spoons cold water. Spread with 2 cups red raspberries, Vi cup sugar, 2 tablespoons butter, and 1 table spoon self-rising flour. Roll as for jelly roll. Wet the edges and press together to keep in the juice. Brush top of roll with remaining egg white, prick with a fork, and place in a greased dripping pan. Bake in hot oven (400 degrees F.) for 30 to 40 minutes. Serve with a hard sauce made by beating Vi cup butter to the consistency of thick cream, sifting in lVi cups confectioner’s sugar slowly, beating until the mass is fluffy, then adding 1 teaspoon flavor |y extract. Three Men Are Reunited In Court After 11 Years BALBOA, CALIF.—Eleven years ago, three young men were fellow workers and friends at a big ball room here. Recently they met again—in court.

JOHN, N. B.—Across the knee deep muck of the shell-plowed field in Passchendaele ridge in Belgium, Private A. H. Morrison of the Twen ty-sixth battalion, Canadian expedi tionary force, and Private Henrik Biermann, 157th regiment of the German army, plugged away at each other with machine gun and rifle. That was some 22 years ago. At the closing exercises in the tiny country school at Glen Falls, three miles from this city, Trustee-Secre tary A. H. Morrison presented little golden-haired Olga Biermann with first prize for general proficiency in Grade I, while her father, Hen rik Biermann, look proudly on. "This is one of the results of peace that dictator nations would de stroy," was Biermann’s comment. Biermann is one of the colony of Danes who have cleared land in the Glen Falls district. Morrison is a well-known musi cian in St. John, organist, pianist, and musical director of the Rotary club. Both veterans got a real thrill out of the ceremony. The child, inno cent at the deeper meaning of the incident, twinkled her deep blue eyes, smiled and accepted the prize. It was a story book. Sees After Nine Yean; Finds World Different KANKAKEE, ILL.—Nine years of total blindness failed to make Mrs. Schuyler D. Burson of this city for get fashions and styles. Her first words upon walking down a city street after an operation restored her sight were "My Goodness, but skirts are short this year!" The skirts and wedge shoes worn by women this season left her com pletely bewildered. Streamlined autos, developed since she became blind, looked “Just like bugs” to her, she said. The operation was per formed at Mennonite hospital in Bloomington early in April. "My husband looks just as he did nine years ago—just a little fatter," she said. "I wouldn't know my chil dren, though. One of them is 19 years old now and the other is 15. How does it all seem? Why, it’s just Wm going into a different world or being born-all over again.” "One - day’s operation of a fleet of enough gasoline to operate 3,000 American passenger cars a full year.” —Am. Pet. Institute. Most of the 450,000 miles of roads in the state-highway system existed long before the advent of the motor vehicle.

They Say About These Cookies -w ROOKIES you can serve with fruit for dessert, or for in-between snacks, are a summer “must.” And cookie recipes that can be stirred up in a twinkle are a find.

That was the experience of a photographer in Baltimore who took the above views of a Robin family. The birds built their nest in his yard and he was able to snap the parent bird, left, looking anx iously to see if the other parent is on the job digging up worms. At right, papa has just returned, his beak full of worms for the babies who are mighty hungry. He’ll dole them out evenly. ^
