By the Associated Press. VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Oc- tober 6.—Delegates to the annual Con- vention of the American Federation of Labor swung today into the business of planning for the return to industrial stability, with capital accused of having “broken faith” in lowering wages. Committees, on the second auy of the convention, pared resolutions and criticisms des?g'ned to head the national body toward its “seven milestones of prosperity.” William Green, the president, speak- ink at a banquet last night, charged that employers had violated pledges they made to President Hoover and or- ganized labor of the Nation at a Wash- ington conference to maintain the wage standard of the United States. Labor, he said, asked to guard against strikes and avoid the “unrest always fomented before in times of depres- sion” has “never violated its pledges.” Scores U. S. Steel Corporation. “The record has been made,” Green added. “Those men employers who sol- wewe= lemnly promised the President of the United States to maintain the wage standard broke their promise. They 5. | violated thelr pledge not to reduce wages. “There sat at that conference repre- sentatives of the United States Steel Corporation. Last week, or week be- fore last the United States Stecl Cor- peration made a 10 per cent reduction in wages. “I leave it to you to decide who can be depended upon to keep their plighted word in time of crisis.” Green, in opening the convention, sald labor might well add “the right to work” to the Bill of Rights. “The great army of the unemployed,” he sald, “stands as a menace to the existing social order. No urge is as powerful as the hunger instinct. It cannot be controlled by social laws.” Interest was divided today between the Executive Council's report and an address by Senator James J. Davis, for- mer Secretary of Labor. W. N. Doak, incumbent Labor Secretary, who had been invited to speak, announced at Washington he would be unable to at- tend. Committees Get to Work. The Executive Council’s report, com- | prising a record of the achievements of the last year and a summary of means tending to relieve unemployment and depression, was divided among com- mittees for study, comment and action. Here are the seven schemes advo- cated: 1—A conference to divide available work. 2—Shorter working hours. 3—Keep the United States wage standard. 4—Guarantee their jobs to those (working now. 5—No child labor. 6—Stabilize industry so everybody will work all the time. 7—Balance supply and demand, with beer to xalvnniu both into action. NAVAL MAN PRAISED FOR QUAKE RELIEF Pharmacists Lauded by Secretary Adams for Managua Aid. Secretary Adams today sent a letter of commendation to Chief Pharmacist's Mate John Quincy Williams, U. S. N., of 437 Twelfth strest southeast, on duty at the naval operating base, Hampton Roads, Va., for his outstanding work in | the Managua, Nicaragua, earthquake on March 31. Secretary Adams recalled that the commanding officer of the Nicaragua National Guard detachment brought Williams’ work to the Navy Depart- ment's attention. Secretary Adams in his letter said: “It appears that at the time of the earthquake you were on guard duty in the Guardia Nacional General Hospi- tal. After being assured of the safety of the patients, you assisted the medi- cal director of the Guardia Nacional in giving first-aid at the penitentiary, where for many hours you worked un- tiringly in preparing these terribly mu- tilated cases for transportation to the ‘You were later of great assistance as an anesthetist to the surgeons and worked continuously, far beyond the call for duty. During the days immedi- ately following the earthquake you as- sisted in the esablishment of the La Loma Field Hospital, and later in re- constructing -the building to be used as the new Guardia Hospital. “The department takes pleasure in commending you for your conduct on this occasion and considers that it re- flects great credit on Lhe naval service.” OAL Our low prices are for cash delivery only.

CTY SLUMP-PROCF, WILE TELLS BOARD Noted Journalist Quotes Sales Figures Showing Capital’s Prosperity. Washington is the one depression- proof city in the United States, the Membership Committee of the local Board of Trade was told by Frederick Willilam Wile, noted journalist, at a lunchcon address at the Raleigh Hotel ra supplied by the Department of Commerce indicate that the per capita sales in this city exceed those of the two second largest cities in the country, Chicago and Philadelphia, Mr. Wile sald, while sales per retail store here also attain a higher average than in those two cities. ‘The percapita average here is $682 per year, as compared to $638 in Chi- cago and $575 in Philadelphia, while the three cities show $56,088, $49,373 and $32,831 respectively, for each retail store, statistics show. The backbone of Washington busi- ness, Mr. Wile pointed out, is the huge Governnfent pay roll, which is almost unaffected by the depression. He said 47,374 classified civil service workers are paid $98,435,119 per year, or an average of $2,078 per person, while 535 members of Congress receive $5,350,000, exclusive of the salaries of their secretaries and other employes. Eleven colleges, 59 scientific societies and 56 embassies and legations also consistently contribute to the resources of the city, Mr. Wile stated. Inasmuch as these unvarying sources of revenue are always available in Washington, this city should be the “light that radiates optimism through- out the country,” Mr. Wile concluded.

DANDRUFF If your scalp burns and itches, if your hair comes out, if yoy have loose dand- ruff, give Listerine a trial. If you do not see improvement in ten days you will be an exception. Just douse it on the scalp full strength and massage vigor- ously. Keep the treatment up system- atically. Note how it cleans and heals thilcnlp and gets rid of those telltale es. If infection is present on the surface of the skin, Listerine attacks it. A pow- erful germicide, it kills bacteria in 15 seconds, the fastest killing time accu- rately recorded by science. Listerine helps to dissolve oily crusts and quickly removes them, as well as horny scales. And Listerine quickly re- lieves that burning, itching sensation. 1t soothes inflamed or irritated areas of the scalp. If scalp is excessively dry, a little olive oil may be used in connection with the Listerine shampoo, or independent of it. The oil aids in dissolving crusts and scales and keeps hair from drying out. Lambert Pharmacal Company, St. Louis, Mo., U. S.
