Dear Comrade Helen: When I treated comrades who came to my house on carrot pudding, they warned me that if I ever let the recipe get out, it would stop the revo- lution, beeause then the unemployed would be astisfied to live on carrots (the staple of welfare grocery orders here in California).

Za oy | Local 62 Opposition Runs Dance to Help Girls Disillusioned by Sellout, Plan to Fight | Misleaders (By a Needle Worker Correspondent) NEW YOK CITY.—I'm an under- wear worker, working in the trade for the last few years. I neved heard of a union, as many of us didn't. ‘Two months ago Local 62 of the International Ladies’ Garment Work- ers’ Union, with a bunch of gang- sters, came to our shop and forced us workers to go to the union and) strike the shop. After two weeks of strike we got a 10 per cent increase in wages, which meant nothing, con- sidering the low wages we got and the rising cost cf living. Then came the general strike, and we young women workers toox the strike seriously and fought militantly in order to win our strike and the demands for a decent living wage. In the strike hall I first heard about the Industrial Union that fourht for the workers against the bosses, while M. Shore and the officials of Local 62 kept us back from fighting and told us hard luck stories about the bosses, Then came the sell-out. If it weren't for the fight of the Indus- trial Union during the strike, we wouldn’t have gotten even that what we won. The leaders of Local 62 sure sold us out. All we got out of the strike is a good idea of what 4 union should be, and that the Indus- trial Union is the only union for the workers. At present the bosses are already cutting the wages and taking back what we won in the strike. The officials of Local 62 are doing noth- ing for us except collect the money for the books and dues. | We are now realizing that we must | organize in Local 62 of the A. F. of L. and fight for conditions in the shop and against the so-called “lead- ers” and eanesters. We girls already have a lot of girls who are willing and reedy to organize ar § ficht with us.

For four weeks we are after Mr. Spector (the organizer of our shop) to come and settle prices, but he never finds the time to do so. When he does come, he takes it up with the mem- bers of the “bosses’ association,” and the prices are settled arbitrarily by a man who does not know the labor value of a hat. Out of 25-30 new hats, 10 might be settled and the settle- ment for the rest of the hats is post- noned for a later date. In the mean_ ‘ime, the girls don’t get paid. After fights and terrible aggravation, they are given, on account of their miser- able salary, a few dollars. This serves as a very good scheme to starve the workers and, finally, when the settlement question is raised again, the boss says: “If you want to get paid, why don’t you set- tle the prices, Why don’t your union help you?” The consequence is that the girls knowing that the union does not help them and they need the few dollars, accept any price. In addition to this, the leaders of Local 24 insist on col- lecting the dues from us, and if we protest and show them that they don’t do anything for us, they have the nerve to threaten us with sus- pension. This situation in our shop is not a recent one. It is prevailing for more than a year and unfortunately it is the same in many of the so-called or- ganized shops.

Letters from Our Readers THE COMMUNIST PARTY FOREVER Detroit, Mich. Dear Editor: I am a mason by trade, bricklayer. A few years ago I was working pretty steady and making good money, and I thought everything I built and |made would be mine. I spent 20 years of hard work in those bloody factories and today I’m selling toilet paper to make my living. But I only make about 50 cents a week. Some time ago I was going to the barber shop and used to see the bar- ber read the Daily Worker paper. I told him that he was crazy to read that paper, because I am a Catholic myself and I heard lots of people tell me that was a bad paper, even my priest told me that. But one day I got into a discussion with this bar- ber and he told me that if I have any mohey in the bank go and get out your money because the bank's Is Leading Them By O.

Before the elections the Fascists in- troduced the quota system on im- ports of agricultural products. The customs duties for certain kinds of agricultural products were raised as high as 500 per cent, especially for such products which are con- sumed by the wide masses of the people. The Fas- cists did this in order to get the votes of the agri- cultural popula- tion during the elections. These measures mainly benefitted the large landowners but partly, also the rich and the middle peasants. At the same time the bourgeoisie declared a mora- torium for agricultural debts up to October, 1933. The moratorium tem- porarily also eased up the situation of the peasants because it put a stop to the auctioning off of the peasants’ property on account of arrears in payment. These measures helped the Hitler people to get a foothold in the countryside. Can the government also buy the peasantry in the future through such a quota system, which artificially maintains high prices for agricul- tural products, when the wages of the workers and the salaries of the employees of all kinds are constantly decreasing, when unemployment re- lief is constantly being cut, when the mass of unemployed, who are no longer getting any relief at all, is constantly increasing? That it can- not do. With regard to the morato- rium the peasants already ask what they are going to do when the mora- torium is raised. What can the Hitler people give the petty-bourgeoisie in the towns? The Hitler government cannot give anything to the petty bourgeoisie in the towns. The number of those who want to get positions from the Fas- cists is enormous, but. the number of positions is limited. Afier the So- cial-Democrats were driven out, the vositions which they as well as the followers of the Center Party and. of he Democrats occupied in the gov- ornment and the municipalities were made available and given by the Fas- cists to their direct followers. It is no wonder that here and there one can already observe a certain amount of disillusionment among some sec- tions of the Fascist voters. The decisive point, however, is that the economic and financial situation of Germany has become catastro- phicaily worsened. If we take industrial production in 1928 as at 100, then production in 1929 amounted to 101 per cent, in 1932 only 57.4 .per cent, ie., it was diminished by 43,6 per cent. In 1933 industrial enterprises were only working 33.3 per cent of their capacity. From July, 1931, until July, 1932, out of a total of 10,000 stock com- panies with a capital of 24.5 billion O.

Industry, agriculture, city real ese tate, in the various states and mus nicipalities, have a long term domese tic indebtedness of 63.1 billion marks, and a short term indebtedness of 28.1 billion marks, making a total of 91.2 | billion marks. The foreign indebtedness of Ger- many, apart from reparation pay- ments, amounts to 15 million marks, According to officiel figures, the total deficit of the German govern- ment budget was as follows: Million Marks 1928-29 «. 1,059 1929-30 . 1,237 1930-31 . 1,451 1931-32 ,. 1,680 1932-33 .. 1,808 (This includes the deficit not cov- ered in the preceding years.) In actual fact there is really still an invisible deficit apart from what 4s visible. This “inv'sihi: deficit” is estimated at two billion marks. Less and less taxes are coming in from the bourgeoisie and the govern- ment will still more intesify the al- ready unbearable tax pressure upon the toilers. All possible forms of piun- dering and robbing the toiling masses -—that is the policy of Fascism. In the sphere of foreign policy, the measures taken to institute the quo- ta system of the government called forth reprisals from other countries, which import Gorman goods. By their aggressive foreign policy, by their demand for armament, and by their arming themselves at a fe- verish rate on their own authority, |by the demonstraticn cf their pre: paredness to confrent-all their neighe ing” the boundarics, the Fascists have extraordinarily intensified the relations between Germany, on the one hand, and France, Czechoslova- kia, Rumania, Jugoslavia and Poland on the other.

But after a few months later I found out that the barber was right —now I know who is crazy. I saw that barber the other day and I asked him if I can have the Daily Worker paper to read. I think this people the truth. Now I see that the capitalist system is shot to hell, Nothing is going to help it—because the N. R. A. is making things much worse than ever. Seventeen million people starving] to death and Mr. Roosevelt making fertilizer out of pigs. Six million pigs sent to hell. This is the N. R. A for you. A few days ago General Johnson and the Blue Eagle led a quarter of a million people through New York streets under the slogan, “Do your part for the N. R, A.” The other day Mr, Johnson and Mr. Green, A. F. of L. member, said they we found out different. Mr. admitted himself that 1,000,000 men was laid off last month or so. I can see now that the Communist Party is the only Party fighting for the working people. From now on I will be a supporter of the Commu- nist Party forever.

It is this noise which is called a mur- mur. We do not prescribe any medi- eines in these cases. Rest, graduated exercises and sufficient nourishment aré the three best drugs in all heart conditions. We know many people who are doing useful work and some even active in the Party, in spite of their heart condition, Of course, they have to be careful not to over- tax their capacity. It may sound paradoxical, but it is now conceded by many cardiologists (heart special- ists) that a person having a weak heart might live longer than a nor- aa one, provided he or she is care- ul. Z We could advise you to see a good physician and follow his suggestions. He may prescribe a little digitalis for you to tone up your heart, but if he knows his business, he'll rely mainly on the three agents we mentioned above. . * A Most Wonderful Device—Maybe! TF. S, Detroit—The “literature” you sent us on the Vacuum Massage De- veloper put out by the Compton Sales Co, of St. Louis, Missouri,bears the marks of a first class fake. How anyone with common sense can spend $20 or even the special price of $12, on a piece of junk like this, in the neighborhood of this school should issue a leaflet exposing this damnable Iie, This is vitally neces- rary in ordey to counteract the in- fluence that this malicious attack of the Friends of the Soviet Union against the Soviet Union may have on the students. is beyond our understanding. The market is flooded with apparatus, all “made in Germany,” which are teed to bring back manhood, youth and what-not. Every cent you spent on such a device is not only thrown away, but will positively harm you in the long run. ee Free Dental Service Dr. Lillian Franzblau of 160 Uni- versity Ave., corner W. 175th St., tel- ephone Foundation 8-9112, writes as follows: “My dear Dr. Luttinger: “Your article in last week's ‘ concerning free dental service fo. workers met with my enthusiasm | “I have been an interested reade.” of the ‘Daily’ for some time and have often thought of helping the workers in my dental capacity.
