they had first seen him. There he ate
the grasshopper and resumed his
watch for something else to catch.
“He certainly has wonderful eyes,1’
said Skimmer admiringly. “He must
have seen that grasshopper way over
there in the grasses before he started
after it, for he flew straight down. He
doesn’t waste time and energy hunting
aimlessly. He sits on a high perch and
watches until he sees something he
wants. Many times I’ve seen him sit-
ting on top of a telegraph pole. I
understand that Bully the English
Sparrow has become terribly nervous
since the arrival of Butcher. He is
particularly fond of English sparrows.
I presume it was one of Bully’s children
you saw in the thorn tree, Peter. For
my part, I hope he’ll frighten Bully
into leaving the Old Orchard. It would
be a good thing for the rest of us.”
“But I don’t understand why he fas-
tens his victims on those long thorns.”
“For two reasons,” replied Skimmer.
“When he catches more grasshoppers
and insects than he can eat, he sticks
them on those thorns so that later he
may be sure of a good meal if it hap-
pens there are no more to be caught
when he is hungry. Mice, sparrows,
and things too big for him to swallow,
he sticks on the thorns so that he can
pull them to pieces more easily. You
see, his feet and claws are not big
enough to hold them while he tears
them to pieces with his hooked bill.”
“Does he kill many birds?” asked
Peter.
“Not many,” replied Skimmer, “and
most of them are English sparrows.
He is a good deal like Killy the Spar-
row Hawk in this respect. Hello! Now
what’s happened?”

“By pooling his resources with those
of his brother workers each individual
workers is afforded a much greater
bargaining power in his efforts to ob-
tain better working conditions and
fairer wages.
“But so long as he confines his ef-
forts only to securing better wages he
is attacking only part of the problem
of making a decent living, because in-
creased money wages in themselves
mean very little if the prices of the
goods which the worker has to buy go
up as high or higher than his wage
increases.
“To safeguard its interests most ef-
fectively labor should use its organiz-
ing ability to- band together into con-
sumers’ co-operatives.”
The purchase of a share of stock
for $10 is required for membership in
the Knoxville co-operative. This
amount may be paid in monthly in-
stallments or may be retired from div-
idends. A shareholder receives 5 per
cent interest before dividends are
paid. x
Mr. Frank said the consumers’ co-
operative movement is sponsored by

ment Employees, an affiliate of the
type” specified payment was to con-
sist of $750 cash and $250 stock.
This stock, described by the Asso-
ciation as having a “stated value of
$50 a share” was issued to organizers
of the association for 10c a share, the
commission said, adding that the as-
sociation has “now stipulated that the
stated value of these shares is 10c.”
So that, the commission said, instead
of getting stock valued at $250 the
bond holders would get five shares
which cost promoters “a mere 50c.”
In finalizing its order barring the
securities from registration the com-
mission expressed the hope that “no
future prospect will be left unaware of
the danger of entrusting the small sav-
ings derived from school teaching in
the hands of men who, upon this rec-
ord and by their own admissions, have
demonstrated untruthfulness and mis-
feasance in positions of trust and con-
fidence.”

Mr. Green stressed the fact that the
American Federation of Labor has al-

nomic and social changes which have
come about in a changing world,” and
said that in this spirit it would meet
every problem of the workers that
came before the convention.

Mr. Green concluded, “about the mil-

power to promote a settlement of the
conflict and to promote peace. But
when our government has discharged
its duty in that respect we feel that
it has served fully and completely in
the discharge of its obligations.
“I am thinking as you are thinking,
about our fellow trade unionsist and
their wives and families in that great
democratic country of Great Britain.
“We read with great interest the
declaration of the British Trades Un-

the workers there toward this im-
pending conflict.
Favors Sanctions Against Aggressor.
“I felt that if I had been in Great
Britain attending the British Trade
Union Congress I would have joined
my voice with the workers there in
the action that was taken because in-
stinctively the workers in Great Brit-
ain turn to the only instrumentality
available for, the promotion of peace.
“There action is the action of men
who are endeavoring so far as it lies
within their power to minimize the
conflict, to confine it, and to bring
economic pressure through economic
sanctions on those who will not listen
to reason but who are determined to
plunge the world into a horrible war.

could have taken, living so close as
they do and associated so directly as
they are with the European situation.”

demanded a reduction in work hour

“He’s new to the Old Orchard,” re-

haven’t noticed him. I’ve often seen
him in the South. There he is now, on

By AFLNews Service.
Atlantic City, N. J—A firm warn-
ing that mediation should be the limit
of the activities of the United States
government in the war declared by
Italy against Ethiopia was given by
William Green, president of the Amer-
ican Federation of Labor, in his a 1-
dress opening the 55th annual conven-
tion of the federation here. He also en-
dorsed the use of economic sanctins
against those “who are determined to
plunge the world into a horrible war.”
“At this moment,” Mr. Green said,
“we are disturbed by the war drums
in Europe. They are sounding now
and our hearts are made sad because
we hoped and believed that when the
great world war had ended we had
truly made America and the world
safe for democracy. We can not un-
derstand it. We believe that the ac-
tion must ‘be inspired by selfishness.
Dictators Incite War.
“It is very significant indeed that
when dictators are enthroned, when
they are established in any nation they
soon tire of a consideration of domes-
tic problems and seek new worlds to
conquer.
“The people in democratic countries
abhor war and it is that democratic
sentiment that steadies the leaders of
a nation. But behold the development
of war manifestations and war equip-
ment in the nations where people are
ruled by dictators.
Labor Demads World Peace,
“Naturally labor is concerned in this
terrible threat to the world’s peace.
We are concerned about it, but I know
I but give expression to the hearts and
minds and judgment of the working
men and women of the nation when I
say that labor—labor as represented
through the American Federation of
Labor—will say to our own govern-
ment, ‘Under no circumstances what-
ever must we be drawn into this
European war.’
“We have not forgotten the tragic
lesson learned in the world war and
the disappointments that have come as
great conflict. They are still within
our hearts and our minds.
Mediation by United States.
“We shall urge our government to
exercise its good influence, its. good
offices, to mediate, to extend a helping
this end he favored “the establishment
of minimum wages ‘boards for these
dependent groups that can not help
themselves."
Marciante Lauds Work-for-All Plan
At the conclusion of Mr. Roach’s ad-
dress, Louis P. Marciante, president of
the New Jersey State Federation of
Labor extended an enthusiastic wel-
come to the convention.
“One of the things that makes me
most proud of the American Federa-
tion of Labor,” Mr. Marciante said, “is
the fact that it has a program to
offer. While others criticise, carp, and
guess, the American trade union move-
ment offers the humane program of
work for all those willing and able to
work through the medium of the
shorter work day and shorter work
week. Labor, as represented by the
American Federation of Labor, has
refused to allow itself to be deluded
by assurance,that returning prosper-
ity and industrial recovery can employ
all those not now employed. Who
has offered a better program?”
Green Outlines Labor’s Policy.
At the conclusion of the addresses
of welcome, the convention was form-
erally opened by William Green, presi-
dent of the American Federation of
Labor, who, in an impressive keynote
speech, trenchantly stressed the valid-
ity and progressiveness of the federa-
tion’s fundamental policies and de-
clared that the organization would
