This is shown | not only in the new assurance and | pride with which our comrades now handle the Daily, but also in the way new workers respond to our paper. Several days ago a few members of the YCL sold 37 Daily Workers in front of the big Fisher Body | plant in a very short time. If the same effort were made day in and day out this number could be in-} | creased tenfold. At a recent unem- ployed open air meeting over 50 Daily | Workers were sold without difficulty | as aresultof effective popularization | by the chairman who also convinced | employed workers to buy copies for | the unemployed workers in the audi: ence. of the national trade union confer- ence, Mother Bloor herself sold more than a hundred Dailies from the | platform at a big mass rally at Public Square. There is not a factory in | Cleveland today where, as a result | of the Recovery Act and the conse- | quent strike sentiment of the work- ers, the “Daily” could not be sold. The same is true of every city in Ohio. It remains for the whole district to take full advantage of this situa- tion. The entire leadership, from the district committee to the unit buros, must understand that without the Daily Worker it is impossible to cre- ate, least of all to cement, strong ties with the decisive sections of the Ohio workers. There is no time to be lost. From this point of view our dis- trict welcomes the publication of the letter from a Cleveland reader in | the editorial column of the Daily | Worker. It should help to rouse the | whole Party and especially the dis- | trict leadership to a keener and more responsive attitude towards the Daily Worker. The District intends to break once | for all with the old, politically irre- | sponsible and passive handling of the “Daily.” As a beginning we have worked out a plan which has al- ready begun to be put into practice.

BS .A strike in the Eclipse & Ne: Shirt Co. has been going on for six weeks, led by the Amalgamated Clothing Workers Union. All tie time negotiations kept breaking down on one point—recognition. of the union. On August 25, the capitalist press carried the news item that the strike was settled, and the workers are go- ing back to work, and in ten days will vote whether they want an open or closed shop. The union did not seem to know about it until they saw it in the press. But upon find- ing it out they got so elated about | their victory that the organizer, | Rosedale, told the workers who were near the shop for picketing duty that they must celebrate the occasion by cheering. Cheer the Boss, the Cops and the | Dick The first three cheers went to the | boss, the next to the cops and finally they cheered the detective who was watching the shop like a faithful dog | and who is directly responsible for a broken arm of one of the strikers. The strike has been a particularly militant one and the cops too did their duty to protect the scabs. A Striker. P. S.—And now a word about the Daily Worl:cr.

Under the National Re- covery Act, at this rate, the workers dre going to get $20 a week. Mr. Whalen is the Chief Adminis- | trator of the NRA. If he is so patriotic-why doesn’t he give his own employes in the Wanamaker Store, which gives him a salary of $90,000 @ year, a square deal?

Since last week they put in effect the so-called Industrial New York} code (which is drawn up only by the bosses). The first step was that our working hours were reduced from 12 hours to 10. So- far it sounds well, but at this place are about 50 workers and by lessening the working hours |by two to every worker means 100¢- hours daily.

A. Brient has applied for membership in the Communist Party. His letter, which is summarized below, illuminatingly describes the ex- periences of a radicalized worker who tock the professions of the Socialist Parsy $ on them. The letter he received from Clar- ence Senior, executive secretary of the Socialist Party, with its tone of the cynical politician, contrasts skarzly with the healthy desire for king class struggle and unity for ch Brient is rebuked. These two letters emphasize again how sharply the line must be drawn between the corrupt and consciously misleading leadership of the Social- ist Party and the rank and file who, in the great majority of cases, have joined the party in the honest belief that it would lead them into genuine working class struggles. It empha- sizes how incorrect it is to lump the not yet disillusioned membership of the Socialist Patty with the treacher- ous leaders who have organized them for the express purpose of paralyzing their to struggie. Progressive Series of Disilius‘onments Brient’s letter is the record of a pregressive series of disillusionments. Ob | d fully that if this rotten system was to be wiped from the face of the earth, the workers would have to do it themselves. I was {f- formed that the Socialist Party was a militant organization which was uniting all workers of all colors, creeds and nationalities in a great struggle to create a workers’ govern- ment. I joined ...I was surprised to find that indoor meetings and an ten petition was the extent of activities.” Ww k of Ne- groes in the organization, he was told thet the Negro wesn’t interested iff struggle, that maybe some day they .| would organ‘ze a local where the Ne- grocs could be by themseives. Moving to Philadelphia, and find- ing that the only activity was trying to elect one cf the leaders to the legislature, he, joined the viends of the Soviet Union, and began to distribute F.S.U. literature at Socialist meetings. Then the So- ciglists called a united front meeting, et which one of their leaders de- manded that the meeting be called | eff because Communists were partici- ating. Rank and File Refuse to Expel He took part in the Hunger March to Harrisburg, under the leadership cf the Unemployed Councils. On! his resurn, the County Executive Com- mittee instructed his Iccal to expel 2ziously, and attempted to act© He defended his ‘action, and the ak and file members of’ his i vnanimeusly voted against his exp sion. Surprised at the action of the exec* utive, he reported it to Clatence Senior, national executive secretary cf the party. “I am sorry to say that I cannot feel much sympathy for you in yeur present situation,” Senior answered. “The Socialists of Phil- -“olphia, as well as many other in this country, have discov- that to give aid to Communist nizations while the Communist ~y is fighting us most bitterly is a little bit lacking in realism... . If you have proved by activities in behalf of Socialism in Philadelphia that you, are a Socialist, I hope that drastic action will not be taken.” When he was arrested for. speak- ing at a meeting to protest an evic+ tion, the ‘only organization which went into action was the Interna- tional Labor Defense: His Socialist friends were conspicuously absent. Continental Congress Last Straw The last straw came when Brient was elected a delegate of the Phila~ delphia Technical League to the So- cialist-led Continental Congress in Washington, and ‘‘was astounded to fnd that all Communist organiza- tions were refused representation.” “This Congress could and should have been the beginning of a tre- mendous onslaught of the working class of America upon the present rotten and decayed system: Instead, because of the treachery of the So- cialist misleaders, it was just an- other lesson in the gentle art of los- ing battle after battle to our worst enemy... . “These Socialist leaders are laying plans at the present time to lead the American workers into the same trap that the workers-in Germany and in Spain were recently led into by their Socialist fakers.... “Experience has taught me that the Communist Party is intelligently and courageously leading all work- ers into an effective struggle for a workers’ government and a workers’ world. The outstanding example of this fact is the Soviet Union... “And so I submit my application for membership in the Communist Party.” Ey PAUL LUTTINGER, 4D.

However, we surmise that you want to know whether. there is a real scientific way of obtaining such a complexion. Well, there is not. Tf nature has been niggardly with you, there is no scientific way of im- proving it, except to keep your bow~ els open and follow the ordinary ules of skin hygiene. And how long will a rose-leaf complexion last if you work in a shop! Your letter does not state whether you are a machine slave or an office wife, You may’ try the following: a) Rub your face every morning with a cake of ice, This will help the iceman! b) Squeeze the juice out of five peeled cucumbers from .which the seeds have been removed. Let the juice dry for 20 minutes on your face and neck. Then apply sour cream. and leave it for 10 minutes, Then wash face with warm water and ap- ply one of the skin tonics for $2 and not worth a nickel a box. You'll then have a peaches and cream complexion—maybe! c) You may combine the “two methods above by eating the cucum- bers and cream and even the ice; but not the skin tonic. The results will be the same, if not better. * 8 Acne Harry S. It is harder to cure than pneumonia. Did you have blood examined? Have you used vaccines. Do you work in a place?
