Labor opinions stir Congress over Porto Rico case
Congress will hear from organized labor this winter on the Porto Rico situation. Iglesias of the American Federation of Labor has been convicted of conspiracy to raise labor prices and the Porto Rican federation of labor was declared illegal. The judge dubbed the wage-raising scheme an illegal conspiracy, a ruling seen as un-American and likely to provoke U S action to protect labor rights in Puerto Rico. In Everett Washington hustlers wear badges reading Watch our smoke reflecting street reactions.

Robins Build and Relocate Nest by Swift Water Race
In a New England town two robins built a nest over a fast mill race between wooden factories. After two-thirds of the nest was done the pair moved it to a lower alder clump, fearing the water below and the exposure. The scene drew many onlookers from the road and factory windows. Nearby, Queen Alexandra’s Sandringham aviary houses doves and exotic birds with fed crumbs and evolving poultry displays. The royal aviary at Frogmore will be expanded as her preferences guide renovations and housing for racing pigeons, pouters, tumblers and turbits.
