7. gl | | DAILY WORKER, NEW YORK, SATU RDAY, JUNE 11, DMG ON THE ROAD (By a Worker Correspondent) Northwestern freight yards in Minneapolis at night. Raining and cold. A bunch of fellows are waiting for a southbound train. There she is and we make the first empty. So long Minneapolis. To hell with Blackjack Andersons hungerprogram. Never again the soupline, Hit the road — that’s the way, Three in our gang, but the empty is'soon full of human beings. Where are you all fellows going? Nobody knows. Nobody cares. ‘The same all over. No jobs. No eats, Nothing, So all there is to it is to ride and get of when hungry. Some of us are laying down in the car trying to sleep. The train is shaking so its impossible. We get aquainted with the boys and inquire about the ways of the road. Where to eat, sleep. Hows the travelling? Easy or hard? Tough, cant be any worse—says an oldtimer—to many on the road. Maybe half the country is bumming around. That’s the way it looks to him. But there is one thing—they declare in unison—we all got to eat or we will take it. They do it in the big towns already. Mile after mile—hour after hour and Mankato lays ahead us in the morning. Get of and aim to try onr luck at bumming. Around the cor- ner a sign: “NO HOBOES ALLOWED—NO BUMMING—TEN DAYS ON THE ROCKPILE” Thats hard—from the ashes right into the fire. Ride her out again or stay? Stay and Main street is getting hell. Door in and door out but the same old story. Nothing doing. To many of you fellows. We don’t ask for much. The baker: stale bread or rolls, The butcher: meat that does'nt smell so good or any buts or ends he eant sell. Over ripe fruit. Better get back to Minneapolis before we die of starvation. We meet another traveller and go with him up to a catholic hospital where a nun or sister feeds us coffee and bread at the kitchen door. Had to sort potatoes for an hour in the basement. NO WORK—NO EATS. IN THE JUNGLE Ride the blind out on an eastbound train. Dont worry about being alone. A gang of boys on the deck before us. Talking about wheat cakes and coffee. All get off in a small town. Whats up? A good town one says. Good jungle and the stores O.K. We follow the crowd and uptown we collect assorted eatables. Down to the jungle. A small army is ahead of us. Young and old. Even a family. Seven of them. They are from Penn. Miners out of work. Going to friends in Duluth, Have an old truck to travel in, Not so very hot. ‘The campfires are burning. Everybody busy. Cooking — frying — washing—mending, Tin cans te cook in. We have a swell meal. Bacon— french fried—black coffee and rolls. No wonder when one of us used to be a $50 a week chef. This is the only way to live—the best way says one camper. No job te worry about—no rent—nothing at all to worry about. My buddy pipes up: “What a hell of a live. He must be a professional bum. Me for a good job, nice clothes and a nice girl. All are talking. Pol- itices—conditions around the country. Most of them are very radical. Only a few see it the capitalist way. We get good information about the ways and life on the road. Where to sleep and where to eat. The best time to bum. How to spot a railroad bull. About good towns and bad towns, Floop in a boxcar at night, The floor is very hard. Our backs are broke and limbs very stiff in the morning. Mr. Hoover got hell that morning. WATERTOWN, WIS. Get to Watertown, Wis. and aim to take in the sights but a certain gentleman is down at the depot and tells us to stay where we are on the. train, A blackjack in one hand and brassbuttons on his coat. If this is the way all over we are bound to live and die on the trains. Madison and visit the Transients Rest. A bed and three s.k. meals a day is waiting for us. HARD LUCK. The headflunkie hands me a broom. I says—Keep your job—I did’nt come all the way from Minneapolis to take your job. He gets excited and the meals and bed fades away. My buddies ‘stick with me—solidarity, Johnny pokes him in the nose and we make the yards in a hurry. To hell with Pfil’s home for transients. Next day Blair from Milwaukee spoke at the U. C, hall, Good meet- ing and we felt refreshed. BEDBUGS Janesville—eating hard—and the police station for sleep. Cement floor and bedbugs by the million, Hoover got hell that night. Ten o'clock in the morning the bulls came around. Loaded us in the Black Marie and dumped us on the highway 7 miles from town. Not a thing for break- feast. Dirty bastards. Hoover is sure about being hanged in the sour old appletree when the revolution comes, Farmhouses for breakfeast. Gosh, we hate the dogs they got there. Big ones, They snap and growl.. Dan- gerous many a time, At the backdoor. Cookies and milk. Good milk. ‘Taste funny to us. No milk for a long time. Drink all we can. Swell. Hiking. Try to hitch a ride. No use. People only wave at us and laugh. Keep on tramping, Sore feet. Hot. It aint so funny to live, to be on the bum, 0, well, Axel says, Soviet America will be soon. ROCKFORD Union Gospel Mission must have a chapter. Brother H, truly a God’s man, ip preaching. What a sermon! GUNS, DOPE, BOOZE, JAILS, JESUS, and everything is mixed up. It reminds me of an Irish stew in a jungle. He shouts and prays. For two long hours, One fellow is dozing off. The dear brother hollers out: “Wake him up; he must be a professional sleeper. And then the flop, lousy, down in the basement. Breakfast. More praying. Then black coffee. Not a thing more. Dinner. First mop the ffoor as good soldiers and tnen praying and then stew. What a stew! BURNED—NO GOOD. Jesus got hell this time. Hell with the mission... Major Stjernfeldt, a nobleman from Sweden, at the Swedish Salvation Army, must be given due credit for the attention he gave us. He was all full of smiles, but no food for our bodies. Only Jesus. After 15 min- utes conversation, he had.a job for one of us. On a farm. Room and board. Twenty-eight cows to milk. We all explained we never worked on a farm before so he couldn't send us there. He was very sorry on account of this. Big fellows like us would be fine on a farm, FOR ROOM AND BOARD. Well, hell—we didn’t come to U. 8S. A. to work: for our r, & b, May as well go to work for the county In the county jail. After some more heavy talking, he gave us a dime apiece and told us we could have a good dinner for it. Where can you eat for a dime in Rock- ford. Stjernweldt must know. We don’t. The only bright spot in Rockford is 704 7th Street. That's the hang- out for the reds. A good bunch of fellows. This is written up there, Revolutionary greetings! More Terror Unleashed in Pa. Anthracite Coal Field (By a Worker Correspondent) WILKES-BARRE, Pa,—The big coal companies of the anthracite are ashing more and more terror against the rank and file of the mine workers.’ More and more men are being laid off or put on part time. The Glen Alden Coal Co., one. of the biggest companies in the field, is feverishly preparing for more and greater speedup than the anthracite has ever experienced. Men who have given the best years of their life and faced all kinds of hardships unflinch. ingly, are now faced with the dread spectre of starvation, The Glen Alden Co. is now laying the older men off as fast .as they can. In all collieries. the bosses are setting aside all men who they know will not be able to keep up with their inhuman pace. Collieries not as yet ‘shut down are being mechanized and. being consolidated with others in | order to work the coal out with as| few men as possible. At present two collieries are shut down for-a period of 15 days, 60 as to do away with three breakers, and have two breakers do the worke* of five. This scheme is calculated to do away with several score of men, Not only through these schemes fare they increasing unemployment. they are also working some jobs on Sen Hoe shifts, instead of eight as provided for by the sellout con- tract. Hence two men are doing work where three men should have jobs. The speed-up at present is gradual, only a few men are being laid off at a time; but in the future they are planning mass layoffs; in one mine there are upwards of 30 men slated for the ex. In others they will probably do the same, ‘The men are just now beginning to wake up to what is going on; there are rumblings of discontent coming up. But the U. M. W. A. fakers are still pursuing their policy of doing nothing, because they are hand in glove with the coal barons; the only gtievances they ever take up for the rank and file are those grievances on which the coal companies Gon’t lose oat. Loral elections are coming up. Now some of the minor local o%:cials are beginning to spout de'ragogic phrases io fvol the men; they are resociing to such phrases as we want the General Grievance body reorganized, but who was it that killed it? Was it not these self-same petty politi- cians who used the body to further their own interests. Let’s get wise to ourselves. Let's form real rank and file opposition groups to these fakers and put up our own rank and file slate in the coming elections; make the wnion take up ouz many grilevunces, | Arms ait Somanes | for Mass Production | As Part of War Plans) NEW HAVEN, Conn.— They are shipping munitions from the Winchester plant here every day. During the past two weeks the factory has gone on short time again. A large number of workers have been laid off. I enquired about the ac- tivities of the plant of a large number of workers who are employed in the cartridge and gun depart- ments. I'hey told me that they are working full speed on dies, jigs, fixtures and everything that goes for grand mass production. In other words, a grand rush is coming in a few days. It is plain to be seen here that the Wall Street government is preparing for war. JOBLESS FORCE RELIEF FROM CHI. CHARITIES Unemployed Council | Wins Relief for 14 Families (By a Worker Correspondent) CHICAGO.—The charity relief sta- tion at 1701 String St- since it moved from Stanford Park has deliberately refused to recognize the committees from the Unemployed Branches up| to last week. A delegation of 22 went there with 14 families demanding re- lief. At first the delegation was told to get back in line and wait for their turn. The delegation refused and in- sisted on seeing the supervisor. This was denied, so the delegation decided | to find the supervisor themselves. | They began to look from one room to another. Some of the watchmen tried to stop them, but were shoved aside by the delegation; one of them even had to be knocked down in a chair, When ‘the delegation came to the Supervisor's office, the supervisor re- fused to speak to them. The delega- tion refused to move until the super- visor spoke to them and heard their demands. After a determined fight every family was taken care of. On the way out, our delegation spoke to the hundreds of other work- ers waiting there, that this victory was won through the struggle of the Unemployed Council and urged the workers to join. Workers wanting charity are forced to wait in the office day after day without getting anything. When they ask to see the supervisor, they are told that she is not in, for the worker to come the next day. This goes on day after day. But they do not get tid of the Unemployed Council so easily. .The above story is only one of many instances where the workers’ delegations have forced the supervisor to take immediate action in getting relief to families. MAN COLLAPSES FROM HUNGER Is One of the Many Everyday Cases (By a Worker Correspondent) WHITING, Ind.—Adam Petka, of Cleveland, Ohio who after a vain attempt to find work in the Middle West, collapsed from starvation here and was brought to a hospital. His condition was found to be serious but it is expected he will recover. This is just one of the many cases of starvation in this vicinity. Every day one reads in the paper of sui- cides because of unemployment and hunger. ‘Waiting until we collapse from star- vation and suicide isn’t going to help us or the working class. We must not starve in this land of plenty. We must organize together into the Un- employed Councils and fight for un- employment insurance at the expense of the bosses and their government.

Afterwards the officers began to -|develop what they called educative work among the seamen. They or- ganized the conversations with the lantern slides, they related very much about the grand dukes, their “merits” and showed us their pictures.

The ships’ physician said that the meat was good and ordered it prepared for dinner. When the signal was given on. June 15 for dinner the crew took only a slice of black bread. The men refused to eat the soup and wormy meat, | Giliarowski commanded the crew to |come on the upper deck and to range |iteele in four rows. | At first the officers threatened us with military execution if we refused |to eat the hot food. They asked each sailor whether he would eat the jfood and each said he would not, |All as one refused to eat the rotten | food.

Here the whole crew began to rage. ‘Down with the blood-suckers!” “All to the weapons, comrades! Down with these rascals!” In one moment the whole crew took up arms, the officers ran to their cabins and a part of them sprang even into the sea. The Sailors Take Control But the locks of the cabins don’t rescue them: the doors of the cabins were broken by the butts and the of- |ficers driven out on the upper deck where they were shot down in the \presence of the whole crew. There |were executed 15 officers, amongst them the Captain Golikoff, the as- sistant Captain Giliarowski and the ships’ physician Smirnoff, who said jthe wormy meat was eatable. The *|remaining officers were arrested and after two days they were set ashore in Odessa, Then we discussed in the general meeting the question what to do in the future. We elected a revolution- arty committee out of the sailors of the crew headed by Matiushenko. The commanding of the battleship was charged to the ensign Alekseiey. A resolution was passed in the gen- eral assembly to hoist the banner of freedom made of red linen. This banner was 40 meters. in length. It fluttered between the two masts bearing the inscription, Down with the Tzar, down with autocracy, down with war in the Far East.

Every machine brand new and shiny. On the walls are big red banners and posters and a huge picture of Lenin or Stalin. In a corner of the building is what they call here a | “Lenin Corner,” a partition or a room | where the workers meet after work- ing hours or during lunch time (we © have an hour for this).

Smoking is allowed here and everybody smokes except where ges- oline or yolitile paints, etc., are used.” ‘There are shower baths with hot and cold water upstairs and a big dinner hall for each department where a dinner or tea can be gotten any time. Women Workers There are many women working here and they get the same pay as ® man for doing the same work. Not like in capitalist America where they hire women because they work cheap- er, There are women too! and dye- makers, mostly students. The work- ers get two weeks vacation with full pay every year.
