A. in Relief Fight So As Sahotsor . . i { — So As to Sabotage Struggle for Relief | easy a’ wane Oaleeanondeat) * DENVER, Colo.—For 18 years I jhave worked for the bosses until j 1930, when conditions got so bad saround this coal field that a miner :couldn’t make a living. In most of j these mines here the biggest check a !miner gets for two weeks work is $30 (seldom that), and as low as $9. I was a member of the U.M.W.A. until 1914, when I realized that this was not a workingman’s union. I fought during the strike at Ludlow, Colo., when the bosses and their gun- ‘men and soldiers burned 72 women and children. My sister happened to be one of the victims. I still carry a bullet in my hip from these gunmen. I am now taking an active part to organize the Unemployed Councils in Denver. Last week we had a com- ion when a member of the local can’, Mittee at one relief station and pose something that’s more than made the charity racketeers dish out ‘omis2s, relicf to 14 families that they had en some of the workers realized Tefused before. what they heard from the call _ Having won that victory we went 5 read out that that isthe best to another relicf station with five out, to unite the employed and S, one my own.
