three bus drivers and a union man from another shop testified that White with a "hull-dozing'' and "threatening" attitude endeavored to persuade strikers to return to work and finally found himself Ihe renter of a small riot Clarence Hale testified that although he was employed at another plant he took part In picketing at the Berger Manufacturing Co Republic subsidiary at Canton Ohio "When my hack was turned" said Hale "White shoved me with one hand and hit me in the hack of the neck with the other I says you gorilla keep your hands off of moT'T'cTlafgrd' af White shd was tHmtm Players

guard who attempted to strike him while others held his arms behind his hack White tall with sharp features and gray hair leaned hack In his chair and roared his laughter when other witnesses in picturesque language confirmed testi-" mony (Hamilton said he "had to peel White one" fqr his own protection) The steel executive grew serious however when Chairman LaFollette (P-Wisc) called upon him for his version of the affair was not out there to try to create a riot or' make trouble" he said On the morning that the strike was called May 27 1935 he said he went to the front of the plant and talked to and "tried to reasoh with" a number of the men But he said: so-called gentleman (pointing at Hale who smothered an indignant rejoinder) was going around interrupting" Hale he said was contradicting him endeavoring to itart sn argument and to dissuade the men from listening Finally White testified he got a hand on Hale's shoulder With the Idea of pushing him off the property At that point added Hamilton White Advances in the manufao ture of basic building materials have not only improved their appearance and quality but they have helped substantially to reduce installation time and expense In concluding he stated that Ihe cost of financing the 1938 home is cheaper than it ever was before and that the simple method of amortizing one's mortgage in monthly payments which include principal interest Insurance and taxes makes home ownership cheaper than rent Court Upholds Ban On Itinerant Vendors In Shreveport La Shreveport La July 18 New trouble loomed last week for direct selling companies as the Louisiana Supreme Court upheld a Shreveport ordinance making house-to-house canvassing a misdemeanor The law forbids "solicitors peddlers hawkers itinerant merchants and transient vendors of merchandise" from "going in and upon private unless they have been "requested or invited to do so hy the owner or occupant" The law excepts sellers of mtlkl1 tee 'iM V-etahles held to supply a public need from day to day In securing a recent permanent injunction against enforcement of a similar law In EmmeUsburg I Roal RHk Hosiery Mills Ind-ianapolis also won the ruling that their representatives are not "peddlers" hence are unaffected by such statutes The Louisiana court was less eulogistic about roving representatives of any description however Frauds Are Alleged "Many frauds" it asserted "are perpetrated upon unsuspecting housewives by strange peddlers in the sale of their shodd goods and many fraudulent schemes are worked upon While the State of Louisiana licenses peddlers the Louisiana legislature granted Shreveport a new charter in 1937 This specifically gave the city the right to "regulate or suppress" peddlers as a nuisance The court seemingly confirmed the authenticity of this charter while denying that itinerant salesmen possess any common law right "No law it declared "gives a licensed peddler the right carte blanche to enter a private residence for the sale of his goods nor does the state grant him any such arbitrary or unreasonable privilege under his license" AMUSEMENTS Loew-Poli Palace Freddie Bartholomew and Mickey Rooney made

false and unfortunate impression of the spirit of the members of the medical profession They are better calculated to protect the special interests of certain members of the medical profession than the general interests of either physicians or the public and have been too often employed to check useful experimentation in the improvement of medical The principles were asserted lo put their major

his tory of our building cycles I repeated we are headed upward to another building boom With today's low construction costs the man who builds in 1938 is making a perfect 'hedge' against the price Inflation that is bound to come in rents wages and material costs" Not only is the home of 1938 less expensive one to build than it 1926 counterpart hut it is also a far better home Improvements in
