Gaekwar Has
Labor Trouble
Open Every Nite Until Christmas Eve
WE GIVE AND REDEEM GREEN STAMPS
Bombay, India, Dec. 20 W)
The lavish - spending Gaekwar
. of Earoda is having labor
;. trouble in his palace. His 250
J( servants have organized a
. union and are striking for high
i! er pay.
The Gaekwar, whose state le
gislature once accused him of
squandering $10,000,000 in
six-week spree, returned from
Europe last week to find his
' servants out on strike. About
100 have been arrested.
j Saturday 4000 municipal
workers in Baroda, a city of
more than 100,000 people, also
. went on strike in support of the
.-, Gaekwar's servants. The city
was in darkness for an hour.
The Bombay government,
which now administers the state
., of Baroda for India, would like
. io Intervene, but can't under
the law. When the Gaekwar
turned his princely state and its
8,500,000 persons over to the
Dominion of India last May he
' i became a private citizen. His
' servant troubles are outside the
government's jurisdiction now.
' Legislative charges that the
: Gaekwar misused $10,000,000 in
; state funds were dropped and
he bowed to the legislature s de-
, mand last May that he cede his
state to the central Indian gov
Ul ernment.
? In the shakeup, however, the
,c Gaekwar kept his personal for
tune, most of It in jewels, and
" got a pension from the Indian
government. He also kept his
servants.

She's really sold on the New Home sewing machine; After
visiting a number of sewing machine centers, and actually
sewing on the various machines herself, she found that
New Home offered her the greatest number of outstanding
features for easier and better sewing. Confidentially, she
has her eye on a lovely mahogany console that serves a
dual purpose as a lamp stand or end table, and as a
thoroughly dependable sewing machine.
