T. B. Baumgardner, speaking for
„ho committee, today stated the
t>urpose of the Omalha-Brewed
Beer Week Celebration is to call
tho attention of the public the
important economic contributions
Omaha’s three breweries are mak
ing to Omaha.
“More than $4,000,000 is distrib
uted locally every year in payrolls,
taxes and brewery purchases of
upplies,” Mr. Baumgardner said.
It was also pointed out that 600
>eople are employed by the three
Omaha breweries—Metz, Fah-taff
uid Storz—and that well over
i,000 Omahans are directly depen
dent upon brewery payrolls.
The committee has learned the*
in other brewing centers such as
Minneapolis, Milwaukee, St. Paul
and St. Louis, more than 90 per
cent of the beer drunk in these
cities is made there. And they
know the result is more men em
ployed and greater job security.
“Tho sole purpose of Omaiha
Brewed Beer Week,” the committee
.ita:ement said, “is to educate O
maha people to say ‘give me a
local beer’ when they call for a
drink or a bottle of beer. Omaha
brewed beer ranks exceptionally
high n quality.
“We are not trying to increase
tho consumption of beer but we
u'o hope to got our friends and
neighbors in the habit of ordering
eho local products.
“And we hope the retailers will
lealizo it is to their advantage al
ways to offer local pi-oducts un
less another brand is specified by
tho customer.
“If we can do what has been
done in other brewing centers, at
least 150 men will have jobs. And
that means more work for gro
cers, coalmen, carpenters, plum
bers, milkmen and everybody else.
“In Minneapolis and St. Paul,
almost neighbor cities, if you call
for a bottle of beer, you always get
local beer unless some other kind
is specified. If that habit can be
established in Omaha at least 150
more men will be employed in our
industry and that means more
men in the box factory, the corn
grit factories, the label factories
and all other business that serves
the great Brewing industry.”
Gottlieb Storz, president of the
Storz Brewing Company; Robert
Drum, president of the Metz Brew
ing Company; and Richard Kneed
ler, manager of the Omaha Fals
taff Brewing Corporation in a
joint statement today said: ‘We
were greatly pleased when we were
informed of the brewery worker’s
plans to focus public attention up
on Omaha-brewed beer It is cer
tainly a wonderful gesture on the
part of our employees to show their
willingness and interest in their
jobs by uniting to help direct at
tention upon one of Omaha’s in
dustries that contribute so much
every year in payrolls, taxes and
other expenditures 'here in our

over $238,000.00 a year in city and state taxes, spend

shotgun better than the doctor—
the doctor strenuously resented it,
then the argument got hot— you
know what always acompanies an
argument—Jess bet Doc two cases
of Hamms he could bust more blue

a bet said the Doctor—The next
day Jess began to get busy—■ he

shoots from the south, and Jim
shoot from the north and Jess
shoot from the east that making
three shots at the same time, mak
ing it difficult for Jess to miss but
the signals got mixed up in some
way. Doc shoots first and McGee
and Jim begin to shoot— instead
of helping Jess they helped the
Doctor—results Doc won. Doc
hit 6 out of 13 and Jess hit 2 out
of 25 shots. Jess lost the Hamms

MART THOMAS
You deserve whole lots of cred
it for the way you conduct the past
timo on 22nd and Burdette and the
patience you have with the young
er boys and girls. I have noticed
mainly that no favoritism is shown
to none. They all got to win on
their merits, and the way those
largo crowds cooperate with you
and your knowledge of the rules
of the game keep down lots of un
necessary arguments and make
tho games faster also your stern
decisions and rules are well heed
ed. Sometimes the boys don’t a
gree with you but they don’t doubt
yo.u also you are doing more for
tho younger generation to develope
muscle and body in making good
clean sportmen out of them. So
keep it up Martin Thomas, We
are all for you if you don’t think
so just look at the huge crowds
and automobiles that gather every
afternoon in closing I am asking
one thing of you please speed up
the games. Darkness caught me
Monday—I’m afraid of the dark.

RANDOLPH STEPS ACROSS
THE LINE INTO CANADA
(Continued from Page 1)
among the Negro workers on the
Canadian National and Canadian
Pacific Railroads and the Pull
man porters who are already mem
bers of tho Brotherhood. One of
tho outstanding clergymen of the
Dominion, Rev. Charles H. Este,
pledged the support of his Church
to tho efforts of the International
Officers of the Brotherhood to
bring into the fold of a bona fide
trade organization Negro workers
on tho railways of Canada.
At the present t | \ according
to Mr. Randolph, the sleeping car
employees of the Canadian Pacific
ate coveted by a Company Union
against which the men are in re
volt. Sleeping car porters on the
Canadian National, a government
railroad, on tho other liand are
members of an independent labor
organizations, but their logical
place is in the Brotherhood of
Sleeping Car Porters whose juris
diction is international and like the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engine
men and Firemen, the Brotherhood
of Locomotive Engineers, the Order
of Train Conductors and the Inter
national Machinists Association ex
tends throughout itho provinces of
Canada. All the railroad conduc
tors, enginemen and firemen in the
employment of Canadia railroads
are members of railroad unions
^vhose headquarters are in the Uni
ted States of America, and rail
road labor organizations thrft in
elude workers in Canada, hut are
not international in scope, are re
garded as dual in character, and
thutho Brotherhood is fulfilling
its mission and mandate of inter
national jurisdiction, states Ran
dolph.
It is expected that within the
next few months, a majority of the
sleeping car porters of the Cana
dian Pacific will have become mem
bers of the Brotherhood so that a
conference may be sought with the
Management by the un on to negoti
ate an agreement concerning rates
of pay and rules governing work
ing conditions, concluded Mr. Ran
dolph upon his return to the USA.
