PAGE PEGLER! UNIONS OF A. F. L. PAID OVER $21,000,000 BENEFITS DURING THE PAST YEAR NEW ORLEANS.—In the calendar year 1938, $21,695, 204 was paid by American Federation of tabor national and international unions members in out of work disability, pen sion, death and sick benefits, the A. F. of L. Executive Coun cil reported to the 60th annual convention here. The council explained that this great sum did not, how ever, cover the total amount paid by all national and inter national organizations and local unions during the year. "It represents,” the council said, "the amount paid by national and international organizations and other organized units which reported to the A. F. of L. Many local unions chartered by organizations affiliated with the iederation and federal labor unions, chartered directly by the A. F. of L., have established funds out of which benefits are paid locally. hi addition strike benefits were paid by local organizations which do not appear m this report. “Therefore, it is apparent that the total amount set forth in this report of benefits does not represent the grand total and that several millions of dollars paid by organizations not reporting should be added hereto.” The council said that the report also revealed 1,264,428 members working a five-day week and 760,545 enjoying va cations with pay. THE LABOR PRESS The labor press is a sentinel on guard for the cause of mankind. Every possible effort should be given in order that your publication may be strengthened for still greater work which lies ahead. Your labor press renders an incalculable service to those who work. We cannot too strongly urge our fellow workers and friends to give loyal and tangible support. No greater avenue of education is available to the trade union move ment than your labor press. The community which supports its Union paper reflects that co-operation through better, more effective local unions, councils and central bodies. .--- ■ 1 ■>■■•*«■■■—WWWWWWWWWWWWWWXM PATRONIZE JOURNAL ADVERTISERS SOME OF THE THINGS WE LEND MONEY ON Diamonds Watch so Jawalry Men’s Clothing Tools Snorting Goods Silrerwar* Shot Gum Rifle* Pistol* Trunks Adding Mnchlnas Salt Cum Maaical InatromenU Kodak* Typewriter!

Members of both Senate and House advocated vigorous action, but the impression prevailed that offidals considered the existing administrative machinery adequate to deal with the ■natter and President Roosevelt in dicated that no new legislation would ' be sought now. Mr. Roosevelt conferred with Sec I retaries Stimson and Knox, Attorney General Jackson and Sidney Hillman, , labor member of the Defense commis ] sion. ; He ‘old his press conference after wards that the main thing was to keep factories with government contracts oDen and undamaged but that there was nothing to report on the confer ence except that they had a very good chat. The President had been in close touch with the Vultee Aircraft strike situation in California and was ad vised of the settlement before it was publicly announced. AWAY By James Whitcomb Riley T cannot say, and I will not say That he is dead, he is just away. With a cheery smile and a wave of the hand, He has wandered into an unknown land, And left us dreaming how very fair, It needs must be, since he lingers there. And you, O you, who the wildest yearn For the old-time step, and the glad return Think of him faring on, as dear In the love of there as the love of here; Think of him still as the same, I say; He is not dead—he, is jusy—away. •****^***»****- -i-i-i-h-i n n n -i_n_n_ Makes a / light Q lunch refreshing ROSELAND FLORAL CO.
