Canning Companies Rob Small Farmers on Produce Price Makers of Food Can’t Get the Necessities of Life (By a Farmer Correspondent) CHETEK, Wise., July 13.—Conditions in this “progressive” state are not very progressive for us poor workers and farmers. In past years we raised beans and cucumbers for the canning companies, but this year we raised only a few for our own use. The canning companies offered us al- most nothing for farm produce. e Wisconsin is called “The Cream Pitcher of America” but this year it will be sour cream for the poor farm- ers. Three years ago butter fat was selling for over 60 cents a pound, but now it is only 17 cents. Butter | Correspondence - Briefs (By a Worker Correspondent) fat is our only cash commodity at this time of the year and at 17 cents @ pound we can scarcely get enough money to get the necessities of life. Eggs are only about 8 cents a dozen. Farm workers are receiving about 50 cents a day. Many farmers are losing their farms, This year I am farming twice the acreage that I did KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Forty-five applications for membership in the Communist Party were signed at the meeting here Friday night, when 1,500 workers heard William Z.

USED TO JUSTIFY ATTACKS BY DOAK Deportations Followed “Red” Hysteria _(CONTINUED FROM PAGE QNE) is “uncertainty” as to whether they were to be prosecuted by state or fed- eral authorities. Doak Utilizes Plot While this particular incident was so raw, that the federal government, through the Department of Labor, was compelled to make it public, Doak and his agents nevertheless took ad- vantage of these dynamiting plots to justify a growing wave of terror against militant workers everywhere. As a symbol of the Hoover-Wall Street hunger regime, Doak unleashed his agents throughout the country, and’ they are daily making raids on workers’ halls and homes, jailing scores of militants who are being held for deportation. The increasing ter- ror against the workers is part of the feverish war preparations, Protest August 1 To smash this terror and to block war preparations, millions of workers will mobilize in a united front on August 1, the International Day of demonstration against imperialist war. In the U. S., tremendous demon- strations are expected in New York, Chicago, San Francisco and in scores of mining, textile, and seaport towns of the country. These demonstrations will also hit such provocations as the one in South Bend. In this case, according to their own admission, Vernon, the chief of the Bendix special force was the so-called braigs of the outfit, and general ring-| leadir.

This is the third case in two weeks where someone collapsed on the streets of Hammond due tostarvation. Instead of increasing relief to avoid such cases, the bosses cut the ap- propriations more and more. More militant struggles by the un- employed councils is the only way to force these heartless money-mad capitalists to part with their loot. On jto Indianapolis!

If the revolt reaches a high stage, the report says, Glassford will be im- mediately placed at the head of the army of bonus marchers.
