} / ns wit DAILY WORKER, NEW YORK, THURSDAY, JANUARY 11, 193¢ f Page Five That Column on Constipation A READER reminds me that't #fedged t o write a column on constipation if. beaten by our favorite, Dr. Luttinger, in the socialist competition to raise funds for the Daily Worker. I don’t know who won this race, but I can write the column, any- way, and here goes. Constipatiom is the condition of the body when the faeces are unduly retained, or-tHere is difficulty in evacuation. It may be due to constitutional peculiarities, sedentary or irregular habits, improper diet, muscular atony, neurosis,“etc. The treatment varies with individual cases, according to the cause at work, laxatives, dieting, massage, tonics, \ete,, being prescribed. I hope Dr. Luttinger is impressed by my medical knowledge. To tell the truth; I copted the above from Volume 6 of the Encyclopedia Britan- nica. Many an intellectual has gotten through life without néeding any brains, ‘by the mere use of this-famous set of books. . * . it’s Not Funny! OME of the more puritanic ‘readers of this column, however, are be- ginning to frown. They don’t like to find a cheap Chic Sales humor creeping into our newspaper. They are right. But whoev r said constipation was humorous? It is the most serious illness from which Americans suffer. Every immigrant who comes to live here thinks.itZunny at first to see in every newspaper, and on every subway platform-and sky poster, and theatre program, adver- tisements for laxatives. It’s:hard for him to believe there are so many constipated Americans. Europe ‘doesn’t suffer that way. China, Africa and Japan have no such problems. So the healthy immigrant laughs. But in two or three years, when he becomes Amertcanized, he doesn't laugh any longer. He himself’tow reads the ads earnestly, and buys, one after the other, feenamint, exla%, cascarets, pluto water, epsom salts, sal hepatica, kruschen salts, castor ofl and croton oil. But nothing helps. He nas caught the American ailment. He is at last a coristipated 100 per center. Can Babies Sin? prose in the dark ages used to believe that sickness was a punishment by god, You were struck by, lightning or constipation because you had not given your monthly graft to the priest and rabbi, So you went to church fearfully and lit candles.and slipped the holy man all you had. He prayed that your rupture -would!heal or your gallstones disappear. And god, maybe, forgave your sins @nd helped you. Maybe! If he didn’t help it showed you were still a sinner: So you handed out more of your cash to god’s bookkeepers. If you died; hat was just too bad, not god’s fault as & physician. No, no, it was ydttt own sin. Even a year-old baby could sin and be punished with sickness "and death. And in those dark religious ages people died like flies in great epi- demics like the one which wiped out the City of London. If god was a physician he was°eertainly a-bad and heartless one. “TODAY ace ha®’come to th point where it can avert such epidemics. "The germs of (Hdlera, tt was discovered, are bred in garbage and filth. Sanitation and plumbing have proved stronger than god and his preachers im saving humanity, Yellow fever and typhoid and other plagues have ‘been elfminated in most of the advanced parts of the world. What capitalist science hasn'y yet admitted, however, is that nearly all disease has 2 social basis. Disease'is caused not by individual “sin,” but, as oan well be proven, by the s6¢fal sins. Why should there be, for example, in a semi-primitive country lié “Mexico, such a high rete of syphilis that tt is claimed almost half the population is affected? It is not because Mex- deans are more sinful or careless,or even ignorant individually than Ameri- cans. Not by a long shot. No, itis because in all such agrarian and church- ridden lands science has not) been necessary to the ruling class. In the more industrialised: countries the bourgeoisie have needed a high degree of scientific progress to enable them to make great profits. Today they have reached thé'ttirnax of their society, of course, and have begun to repudiate further sdfentific advance, Only in the Soviet Union \ pre-industrialized lands. ‘methods. b lot aa are lvvadreds of other:diseases that have as simple an explana- tion. They are the ailmentspmot of any individual, but of a bad social order. All tuberculosis is preventable, for instance. It comes mainly from overwork and bad food and living conditions, But the solemn bourgeois doctors go on year after year treating the individual case by the familiar fw science flourishing today. yet under bourgeois industrialism enough progress -had been made to eliminate the ravages of syphilis. It is a disease that now és most, wide-spread, mainly in agrarian and hyper-religious and Not once do the majority of-doctors ask themselves: what can a ’ \ and cholera? . community do to prevent thi&idisease, as it now prevents yellow fever To wipe out tuberculosis forever you would have to wipe out all the @lums of every city, and see that nobody slaved for long hours every day in deadly factories. You would=have to guarantee a minimum wage that would enable every worker to give himself and his wife and children all the good food and warm clothes that alone can prevent this disease. There would have to be no great famines like the present unemployment crisis in America, when, because of the evil of capitalism millions of children grow up rickety and starved. In short, the real answer to tuberculosis is a revolutionary one, and most doctors are as careful as other bourgeois intellectuals not to think anything out to its logical conetusion, if it . The Reason for Constipation smells of Communism. THEORY, Dr. Luttinger, why constipation is found so widely in America, Is because here is the historic land of the speed-up. The greed for profits has been so great that humanity has been turned into a machine. That lerer, Henry Ford, has destroyed as much health and happiness as apy Ghengis Khan, out of the same primi- tive lust for power, and profit. ‘The Detroit hospitals an of his system of exploitation. jouses are filled with human wreckage ere was a constant turnover in his plants. Strong boys came in from the farms for hundreds of miles, attracted by the ballyhoo of high wages. They ta3¥ed for a few years at Ford’s conveyor belt, and then were transformed int“Sick, useless old men. Ford is only the outstanding symbol of this dreadful American speed- up, this matrix of American. diseases. A man was considered old at 40, and.nills would not hire him even during the and most of the factories boom days. Constipation, says my authority, comes from irregular and sedentary habits or a neurosis. The Ametican worker has been pushed beyond any human limit, and these neurosé$and constipations are the result. When before, in the histoty of the world, did foremen stand with stop watches and time the worker w if he persisted in such human, practices? But it is an American custom, ‘Well, many doctors, even in,America, are beginning to see it all, and like Dr. Luttinger, are beginning: to prescribe a social revolution as a cure for constipation, tuberculosis,‘syphilis. They teach us that capitalism {fs the had to go to the toilet, even fire him great disease to be eliminated; and that when low wages and bad houses and poverty are wiped out, the world will be no longer a vale of tears or a hospital, but will be a sunlit’arnival of human joy, where the strong anid“mothers will build In freedom. Health is the natural heritage of the hutmah race; and some day we will claim that children of strong fathers ¢ heritage. re iB / GU! WHat ALOU Day - RAIN AND eo18) Yale Students Unite With New Haven | Organizations in Defense of Workers | Jailed in Kirschner Foundry Strike Only the Socialist Party Refuses to Join United Front By BILL MASON NEW HAVEN, Jan. 10—Ruling class justice in New Haven, char- acteristically serving the Manufac- turers’ Association and attempting to crush every struggle of the work- ers for better living conditions, framed and handed heavy fines to | two workers and two students, ar- rested and convicted in December for supporting striking molders in their fight against starvation wages and miserable conditions. The mold- ers were led by the Steel and Metal Workers Industrial Union, which has recruited 250 workers since last spring. All four took appeals from the decisions of the City Court. Rae Masler, needle trades worker, Theodore Potenza, a member of the §.M.W.LU. working in another shop, and Larry Hill, Executive Secretary |of the Yale Chapter of the National Student League, will face trial be- |fore the court of Common Pleas |mext Tuesday, They will be de- |fended by Judge Philip Troup of |New’ Haven, an attorney for the American Civil Liberties Union, which has joined with the Interna- tional Labor Defense and the other organizations participating in the Defense Committee. The Defense Committee was jformed on a broad united front basis as a result of the initiative supplied by the I.L.D., organizations, and individuals of all kinds are taking part. Socialist Party Stays Out. But the Socialist Party is con- spicuously absent in spite of the fact that Potenza is a rank and file | Socialist worker; the S. P. leader- | ship has deserted Potenza because |of his militant activities and be- | cause of his connection with the | Steel and Metal Workers’ Industrial Union. They have refused him any assistance in the fight for his de- fense. Bill Gordon, another N. 8S. L. member, has already won his case, as the state refuses to prosecute him. He was arrested as he was securing wit- nesses for the trial of the other three. Edwin S. Pickett, Common Pleas pro- secutor, commented, “Of course we're willing to prosecute Gordon, but there is no evidence to convict him.” It was only mass protest on the part of students, workers, and other residents of New Haven against the terrific railroading in the City Court which won this victory and will win a like victory for Hill, Masler, and Potenza when their trials come up Tuesday. Mass Public Hearing This protest is reaching its climax Thursday night, when a mass public hearing called by the Defense Com- mittee will be held in the First Methodist Church. The speakers will include the defendants, who will have an opportunity to bring before the masses the real reasons for the arrests and convictions and the real issues involved which were concealed and ruled “inadmissable” in the court. Robert Kling, organizer of the 8. M. W. I. U., who was the workers’ candidate for Mayor of New Haven on the Communist ticket in the last elections, will speak on the strike it- self, the conditions against which the molders fought and the demands of the strikers. He will also answer the vicious attacks of Mayor John W. Murphy, against the strike, the union, and the leadership of the union. Mayor Murp(hy is vice-president of the Connecticut Federation of Labor, affiliated with the A. F. of L. Rank and file A. F. of L, members are with Murphy's strike- breaking activities as well as the activities of others of the racketeer leadership. These are fast becoming discredited and the membership will soon cast them off and elect their own leaders. Severa A. F. of F. locals have been supporting the Defense Committee and many are expected to, attend the hearing tonight and to take an active part in the defense work. They realize that the right to strike and the right to picket of every worker is involved. Other speakers will include Pro- fessor Halford E. Luccock, liberal, of the Yale Divinity School; A. Sidney Lovett, University Chaplain; and Mrs, Fleming James, member of the | Industrial Relations Club, composed mainly of the wives of professors. Samtel Bloomfield will speak for the International Labor Defense, and Joseph Bernstein of the John Reed Club will preside. ¥ . Scene after scene of the play! “Peace on Earth,” the Theatre Union anti-war play, has been enacted in New Haven during the course of the the arrests, and the trials. Students left their books and dem- onstrated their solidarity with the working class and their support of the militant struggles of the workers by joining the picket line. Arrests on frame-up charges immediately followed and were supported by con- victions in the City Court. Large demonstrations of workers and stu- dents were conducted in zero weather before the court house. The attitude of the Yale Dean was precisely the THAT GILES ME AN IDE A~ > The Day of the Race! same as that of the Dean in “Peace he stated, “are entirely out of s; pathy with the interference of stu- dents in New Haven affairs about which they are uniformed.” Hill and Gordon after seetng “Peace on Earth” said “The critics say that the incidents of the play do not happen in real life. We can testify from our own erience that these incidents are very real. Seeing the play was like living over again exactly what happened to us.” was called by the Steel and Metal Workers’ Industrial Union early in September. The moulders were re- ceiving wages ranging from $8 to $14 weekly for skilled work and a 40- hour week under terrific speed-up. In 1929 they had received over $30 weekly, and now they ate not even permitted to know the piece-work rates and could not tell what they are going to get for a week until they received their envelope. There were no drinking water and no showers for the workers. The strikers de- manded piece-work rates as of 1929, recognition of the shop committee and of the union, and no helpers’ work, On Wednesday, Dec. 6, after pick eting had been going on every day and the strikers’ determination was unbroken, the boss sent out his scabs to beat up the pickets. Lead pipes and bottles were used and guns were drawn. The strikers appealed to all sympathetic organizations to support day. Fifty pickets representing many organizations responded and were on the picket line at 6 in the morning and again at 3.30. It was then that the boss called his police thugs into action. Singling out three victims, he directed the cops and the arrests took place accompanied by much brutality. Hill was badly clubbed with @ blackjack. Potenza was not even picketing but |was waiting for a street corner |meeting scheduled at the time that the scabs were to come out of the |No, don't chase him away! \him for breach of the peace!” | The press of New Hayen, also in \the pay of the Manufacturers’ Asso- ciation, had supported the boss until this time by a campaign of silence, |refusing to print any news about the strike.
