But experiments are now under way to solve the problem. Al Jennings, the old time bad man, is working on “The Oklahoma Kid” and, the other day, James Cagney introduced him to his attorney, W. I. Gilbert. "I already know Jennings,” said Gilbert, laughing, “and now is as good a time as any to collect that $3.50 he owes me.” Gilbert, now gray haired, was a passenger on a Rock Island train that Jennings and his gang held up in northern Oklahoma in December of 1897. They couldn't get the mail safe open so Jennings broke his rule and robbed the passengers. Gilbert was among them and lost the $3.50.

Lewton had charge of the "Better Speech" topic, after which Mrs. J.i M Fristoe, program leader, read a splendid paper, ‘Favorite United States Presidents,” George Washington, the first president, born February 22, 1732. in West Morland Countv, Virginia, was a brilliant man with a fine mind and powerful physique. His education was con-| fined to elementary branches, taught to him by his mother. He was a strong soldier, good citizen and statesman and an excellent president. Mrs Fristoe then told of General William H. Harrison, who at i the age of eighty-six became presiI dent. He was a fine man but total-' j ly out of touch with the times and 1 Fur Coats CLEANED and RE-GLAZED OHW-Wa!

would have been easy prey for the Whigs; he later fell Bl with pneumonia and died Just one month after his inauguration. Possibly the moat loved of all presidents was Abraham Lincoln, the sixteenth president of the United States. He was born February 12, 1807. A sturdy pioneer and like ail boys of his time worked hard and from the time he was eight years old he cut wood for the fire place and spilt rails, therefore, he gained the name of the "rail splitter,” His education was of the elementary branches, only attending school for a few weeks per year. In young life he lost his mother and her teachings, which had been the finest and best education so rhim. Through his entire life he would say “All that 1 am qr hope to be I owe to my mother,” until he became known by this saying. He was a man capable of love of life and of suffering with others, and as president during the Civil War he was truly tried for his courage and acquaintance with grief. A social hour was enjoyed by all. The next meeting will be held next Monday at the home of Mrs. O. L. Vance, with Mrs. A. J. Haney the program leader.

CIO REAFFIRMS STAND ON UNITY

Asserts Labor Unity Wanted But Demands Industrial Unionism The Grotto, Pittsburgh. Nov. 15 —(U.R) The committee for Industrial organization, in a boisterous session, today served notice on President Roosevelt and the American federation of labor that it wants labor unity but will not sacrifice the fundamental pi Inclpie of industrial unionism to attain this goal. The action came on acceptance by the (TO first constitutional convention of a report by the organization's “peace making" group in which the AFL representatives were blamed for collapse of previous truce conversations, and a supplemental report by the committee on officers reports headed by Homer Martin, president of the United Automobile workers. The vote was unanimous. There was no roll call. The Martin committee report stated emphatically that "there can be no compromise" with fundamental purposes and aims of the CIO and stated this to be the future policy of the CIO toward the controversy. "The CIO accepts the goal of unity in the labor movement and declares that any program for the attainment of such goal must embrace as an essential prelude these fundamental purposes (unionization of muss production inrights and interests of all CIO dustries and protection of the members and affiliates.) 1 ’ The convention acted less than 24 hours after Mr. Roosevelts appeal to the delegates that ths door to peace be kept open had been greeted by a noisy fourminute demonstration of acclaim. The chief executive's plea was similar to the one he made to the Houston. Tex., convention of the AFL last month. Simultaneously, it became known that the ClO’s first constitution will change the name of the organization to the ‘‘Congress of Industrial Organizations"; will pledge CIO allegiance to democratic principles and institutions and will promise strict CIO ob servance of the sanctity of contractural relations with employers. Philip Murray, CIO vice-chair-man who headed the “peace makers." vigorously defended the policy recommendations of, the Martin report. He said they meet President Roosevelt's wishes in the entirety. “It leaves wide open the door of opportunity to attain that unity which we seek and does not deny the president’s desire for unityin the labor movement.” Murray explained to cheering delegatee. Brisk debate pi eceded adoption of th report. It found the (TO
