On-the very first leg of the voyage, the trip from New York to Philadelphia, Mr. Garvey had set the example by leav- ing cargo on the dock and leaving United States mail for which he had ® contract. He sailed on Sunday, while mail for the ,boat was. adver- tised as closing the next day. - Worker Passengers Treated as Dogs. In Port Limon we received a wire- Jess that a cargo of 36,000 bags of sugar could be had if the boat would hurry to a c@tain Cuban port. How- ever, Carter knew if he accepted this cargo, evefybody would know of it snd the amount received, and he would not be able to get such fine collections, nor could he conceal bead amount received. ‘This policy of refusing cargo was also extended to passengers. They were certairly not encouraged. We had four aboard from Port Limon to Jamaica, and it was a shame to sce how Carter treated them. Of course, they were only workers, and Mr. Carter and the rest of the officials had already shown that while they were ready to collect the hard-earned savings of working people they had no use for them. They were gentle- men and ladies and could not mix with workers . On our way back to Kingston, Jamaica, from Colon, two of the crew took desperately ill, They went to “the ship doctor for treatment, but that dignitary, patterning his actions after the other officers, refused even to touch them.

Hour to Workers (By a Worker Correspondent) NEWARK, N. J.—Once the recipi- ent of Russian orders in the form. of profit producing contracts from the Soviet Union and now just returned from a trip there in the interests of | renewals which he failed to get, Charles Eisler, head of the Eisler Manufacturing Co, of Newark, breaks into the Newark press with a big story on “Russian Bread Lines and Miserably Low Wages”. Declaring that “the bread lines) ing cocoanut water and rum along with Mr. Carter and the other offi- cials and could not be found. The formas early as five o'clock in the Eisler had failed to have the story properly treated, for on the direct opposite page of the same newspaper was a picture far more screaming accompanied his This picture was an actual photograph of an actual bread line morning”, conspicuous than the headline which story. and what is more it was an Amer- ican bread line. Where Are Low Wages Paid? Whether the contrast in the word Picture of bread lines by a disap-) pointed seeker of Russian favors and the actual picture of an American bread line struck home or not, the remarks of Eisler regarding low wag- es paid to the Russian workers most. surely would, because he is known to pay the employees in his plant a starting wage as low as 25 cents an hour, while experienced men receive only 35 cents an hour. Besides the that Mr. Carter would not put up| the bond but would use the case as | his long sought for opportunity to {| hold up the boat indefinitely. So, } although the men were suffering terribly they went back aboard. They underwent the most terrible suffer- ing rather than afford Carter the opportunity to hold the vessel. And in the meantime, Carter was sending cables to New York every day incit~ | ing the members there against the) crew! Tries to Abandon 14 of Crew. Soon after this the boat left for Port Antonio, Jamaica. Here again Carter collected more money. We now thought he would return straight to New York, but were surprised to learn he was taking the boat to Miami, Fla. Fourteen menibers of | the crew went to Carter and told him | they were afraid to take the people's boat to Miami, because they felt the | white people down there would do) something to destroy the vessel. Carter refused to listen, and went ashore and hired 14 men although the men had not threatened to leave. This alone shows his disregard for | the people’s money, for he delibér- ately added 14 mouths to feed aboard, | and 14 extra men who would some- | | time have to collect their wages. The captain tried to dissuade him, but he would not listen. In my next article I will deal with | day in the Daily Worker. Box 23, D. Two weeks of activity in the Daily Worker campaign for 60,000 mass circulation sees Phila- delphia hurling a challenge to beat Detroit in quota percentages. Silver, the district 3 Daily Worker representative, who shows distinct signs of life, says this is no paper challenge. Phila- delphia actually intends to beat Detroit, Every red workers fn District 3 must feel he has some responsibility in making good this challenge. Philadelphia also intends to rattle Daily Workers around in a Red Ford to help the units and sections on house to house delivery routes. PHILADELPHIA ASSIGNS QUOTAS FOR SECTIONS The Philadelphia District bureau has set the wheels spinning. Quotas for sections and units have been assigned; steps have been taken to get active Daily Worker representatives on the job; three Red Sundays have been organized; leaflets will be issued. 75 PER CENT OF PAPE®S IN ST. PAUL ARE SOLD our experiences in Miami; of the re+ ception we met there, of the trouble | we had with harbor fees and coal | while Carter was close-fistedly hold- | ing on to every cent he had collected | low wages in his plant, the men working for him are spied upon to see that they do not read Communist newspapers. Being a Hungarian by birth, Eisler has specialized in ex- ploiting his countrymen but each one — caught reading the Uj Elore is im- mediately fired. But whatever he said in the article is only to be} laughed at because he is a known) advocate of everything of a fascist | nature and one of Horthy’s agents in the United States, Fact is that) although he also visited his native land, he failed to say one word about | the bread riots on September 1st in | Budapest where 100,000 workers un-| der Communist leadership demon- | strated against the fascist imposed | misery. Paid subs will give us a 6-page paper. Send them in, From St. Paul, Minn., we heay from Gus Skan- dera, Daily Worker representative. He sends in a detailed report of the sort we want each week from all Daily Worker reps. The report | shows that over 75 per cent of all papers re- ceived in St. Paul are sold at factories, house to house or at meetings. Skandera goes on to say: “I must state that during the month of Oc- from | tober up to now a decrease in sales is noticed in view of less street meetings on account of the cold weather and also a drop in sales at factory gates on account of the weather and many lay-offs, “Also bundles were received very irregularly, two issues coming every other day and we found it hard to sell two copies at one time, “On Sunday, Nov. 2, there will be held a Daily Worker agents meeting to mobilize the Party membership for the drive and take up the question of arranging a dance and a bazaar to wipe off the old debts to the Daily Worker and give more power to the Daily.” The Datly Worker is making every effort to | get regular delivery. We want reports on de- livery. It must be remembered the Daily Worker has problems which do not apply to capitalist papers, one being a shortage of money which sometimes makes itself felt in delayed editions.

The columns under the date October 21, that is the higher figures, show a daily average which includes special editions, However, with the pub- lication of the columns under the date Nov. 1 we begin printing figures which do not include special editions. In fact the 300,000 special elec- | tion campaign editions are not listed in these columns, In future figures under the caption “bundle orders” will be only the day-to-day orders. It is necessary to make this change in order to show what is going on in each district by week. LET’S HAVE SOMETHING TO REPORT NEXT WEEK Next week we want something to report be- sides expectations. Lets get a little action, Remember no worker can get @ subscription or sell one copy of the paper without affecting the figures for his district, We must get inte real action, Get subs and send them in. Get results on house to house routes and factory sales. Get action which will show in tables for the coming week. '
