We have often been aske t Medicine can be taken to induce an abortion y millions of dollars are s by women in an effort to learn answer. These millions are es, all—a total wa No medicine, whether taken internally, or injected under the skin, or inserted into the vagina, will cause an abortion. it is true medicines, if taken in large enough doses, may cause an abortio but the dose must be so ge that the woman may not on ve an abortion, but may even die in the attempt as a result of poisoning. Mi women will reply that this is not true; that after they had taken medicine they had had a miscarriage.

We shall not go into a discus- sion of the causes of spontaneous miscarriages at this time. But suffice it to say that if medicine is taken when a woman is about to have a miscarriage anyway, then the medicine will be credited (falsely, of course) with bringing it on Think of the hundr ferent medicines advert as sure fire to interrupt pregnancy. It is axiomatic, however, that when- ever a large variety of drugs are advocated for the cure of a certain disease, you can bet your bottom dollar that none of them is any good. It is a swell money-making scheme to exploit the gullible public. The answer to the question on how to induce an abor.ion is this: It can only be done by performing an operation. It should be done under anesthesia. It should be done by a capable gynecologist (women’s speciaist). It should be done in a hospital. In capitalist countries, abortions are illegal and all conditions can- not be met, The opposition of the church, supported by the capitalist class has prevented the legalization of abortions. It is considered to the interest of capitalism to have a large sarplus of people. The more there ar the few available jobs, the easier it is to hire workers for ow wages. War, too, demands the st possible reserve of hum Workers and their c are needed for cannon fodder. In the Soviet Union the situa is entirely different. There abortion: legalized in 1917 in recognition of the social and industrial equality of men and women. If a woman desires an abortion. he may have it performed by a competent specialist in a we e d clinic. If it is her fir: pregnancy, she is persuaded, if pos- sible, to have the child. When an abortion is done, however, she must remain in the hospital for three days, and then has a vacation for seven days with pay; and before she leaves the hospital, she is given instructions in birth control. abortion in the early weeks of mancy (tenth week at the in the hands of a competent cologist under proper precau- is a safe man limitations. know that in the Soviet Union where abortions are legal the ill-effects have been brought down almost to the very minimum. A recent report from a Soviet “Abortorium” states that out of 20,000 cases there were no deaths and only five cases had complications—all of which were of a mild nature and cleared up with treatment. In capitalist countries where hundreds of deaths do occur fol- lowing abortions, in most instances the operations were done by incom- petent midwives or nurses and un- trained and unscrupulous physi- cians And who are the ones that die? Not the boss’s wife or his daughter who have enough money to engage an experienced abortionist. It is aally the poor working girl or the impoverished housewife with a large family who cannot afford the ex- orbitant fee demanded by capable operators. In spite of the illegality of abor- tions, tens of thousands of them are performed every year. The abor- tion business has become a racket in the United States and is in the 5 class as prostitution, dope peddling, bootlegging and prohibi- tion of blessed memory. There is a lot of money made in this game and the promotors who can afford to pay large sums in graft are well protected by the police and the courts. Why should the minions of the law bite the hand that is feeding them? me IN THE HOME By HELEN LUKE Anna Cassidy By SADIE VAN VEEN Anna Cassidy lives on Avenue C above the push carts. All day she hears the vendors and at night There is the s e of rotting fruit and the yowling of cats. hawking Anna lives in three small rooms and she has three kids. Margaret, five, looks out of the window at the bananas and grapes And cries for some; I want to eat it, she begs. And then the other two younger begin to weep. They want food. They want more. It is hot and sul- y and the children % cool grapes, cool bananas and cool cream. But Anna Cassidy has only bread and oatmeal and the precious milk Ww M be equally divided among three hungry children.

Try the budget and the diet on yourselves and give me the cash. Pay my gas bills and my light bill and my rent. Understand? My children need food. And how can I warm their milk and cook their mush, And how can I care for them in the dark? No gas and no cooked food for seven days. My babies are sick. I, too, am sick. Turn on the gas and light.

Road Spies Call t Trap Dining Car Workers By a Railroad Worker Correspondent LONG ISLAND CITY.—Those of us employed in the dining car de- partment as cooks and waiters are all aware of the “bag searching cam- | paign,” being conducted by the agents of the railroad. This search has not been fruitless in the eyes of the railroad officials, because it has caught a few waiters and cooks in the net What did these men have in their hand bags? Sugar bowls? Silverware or linen? No, they had only some articles of foods eggs, bacon, etc., and in one case a cook who had to stay over in Washington, had only a sandwich. When they returned to New York, they were forced to pay for the articles in their possession and then fired.

But a short time ago, the Pennsyl- vania Railroad declared to its stock- holders an extra dividend over last year. A double increase of profits. Imagine Atterbury or Finnegan stealing a chicken to take home to dinner, Get the point? Perhaps many of us workers are not aware of the fact that dividends have increased over last year with- out much increase of travel. (Pa: senger fares, freight carloadings, etc.) But all of us are aware that a little has been chiselled from here and there to cut wages indirectly and we have felt the effects. These men have attempted in the wrong way to combat a powerful, blood sucking corporation. It is true that the Pennsydvania is getting “theirs” and we must “get ours.” But not in the manner of these dis- charged workers. How can we “get ours”? By militant organizing. In the case of us dining workers, join up in the Brotherhood, raise the de- mands to enforce the 240-hour agreement in which Lemus & Co, take such pride in boasting, De- mand eight hours pay for laying over. For full time pay while dead heading at night. For full crews on all dining cars leaving the yards. For a complete restoration of the 10 per cent cut.

By a Worker Correspondent MARLOW, N. H—In collecting signatures, as a part of the election |campaign in New Hampshire for the Communist Party, I find the people’s opinions running in many directions. Some refuse to give a signature point blank. Some slam the door in one’s face. Others are | afraid to lose their jobs if they gave their signatures on the nomination papers, while others give their signatures after a little explanation. In some cases the explanation takes |an hour or more of discussion. Campaign literature is given a wide distribution. Special attent:on is given to distribute the Worker's Unemployment Insurance Bill and the Farmers Emergency Relief Bill. In some cases I was well received and kindly treated; even asked to dinner. In one town I collected 33 signa- | tures which were all certified with- out difficulties; excepting the labor |of collecting and the expenses in- volved driving a car up and down the hill sides. In another town the collection was more difficult. Only 21 were willing to sign the nomina- tion papers. Two citizens subse- quently withdrew their names; two | others I lost who were not on the |check list. The balance of 17 signatures were of bona-fide voters, j Some old residents and born in the | town. I was called all kinds of mames and otherwise personally | provoked, in the town hall by the | official supervisor of the check list, who refused to even look at the paper. After much heated argu- ment I had to go home late at |night, with many insults in my memory, without having the papers certified. At a subsequent session, the process of slander was repeated. However, one of the supervisors checked the names on the check list and certified the 17 names. The other supervisors continued to re- fuse. | At all times I empioyed polite lan- guage and continued to divert the harangue off the personal and directed it to the nomination papers. The placing of the laws on the subject direct from the secretary of state of N. H. before the irate supervisor had no effect. I lost another night and got only | a partial certification. The Moder- jator of the Meeting, to whom I | appealed this morning, advised me jthat the “Communisic:” (nz U) are all “foreigners,” and should go | back to Europe—which leads me to conclude that the fascist ten- dency is becoming very alarming in old New Hampshire. I am going to appeal to Gov. Winant, who is my ‘ brother Granger, | It’s a wonderful plan—no dues and | the Western Union company union | was formed, just at the time the | Telegraph Messengers Union was to go on strike in April. | Here's how it was put over. A| group of messengers went to Mr.| McLaughlin, head of the Metropoli- | tan division of Postal and asked for an employe representation plan. All| of this was on the initiative of the| messengers themselves, the officials | told us. That the messengers should | have such a “union” was very | heartily approved by McLaughlin | since it most likely was his own plan. no check-off system as the W. U.| company union has, paying the! elected representatives 20c an hour | when they go to meetings—all of | course returned to the company in} the form of keeping their messen- gers in control and out of trouble. Every office in the city must elect | a representative to an employe rep- | resentetive meeting in his district. | There local grievances are discussed | and if the official of the company, | who is the superintendent, agrees | to the proposals, they are carried | out—but if he disagrees, the pro- posal is forgotten. This district representation elects one messenger to a central meeting where Mr. McLaughlin sits and the same procedure as of the district meetings goes on. What has been the result of these | conferences? During April, when the sentiment for strike was high, | McLaughlin agreed, through the} body, to give numerous petty con-| cessions—amounting to about a dol- | lar increase in pay. However, at) present, the gist of all discussion | centers on all-important question, | as whether shirt sleeves should be rolled up or not. The company union is being ex-| posed by its inaction.

Some groups disillusioned with their union decided to go back to work despite jthe fact that no defini‘e word had | come from the U. T. W. to do so. Others, knowing that to go up in layoffs, held back. Not only had these workers, after demands, but their ranks were com- pletely demoralized. At about 9:30 a representative of jthe U. T.

If there had been even one developed, militant, worker in this shop to give some leadership (build rank and file committees) this demoralization wouldn’t have developed. Most certainly, had there been a Daily Worker or leaflet distribution exposing Gorman and the sellout, this morning, the workers would have had a great Political lesson clarified for them. Note: The incident described by this correspondent is typical of what took nlace at hundreds of textile mills in ail parts of the strike area, following the betrayal of the strike by the U. T.

They are determined to stay out “until we win what we're fighting for.” “The damned Communists were right,” one worker piped up at the | strike meeting where Gorman’s “triumph” telegram was read.

A group of young workers have decided to organize a united front organization and work together with the Communists. A delegation is coming to the open section meeting of the Communist Party in Spring- | field tonight. The workers look to the establishment of a Workers Center in Chicopee. in the near future. ‘among the ranks of the textile workers, We must put the Daily Worker and our literature into the hands of all textile workers. We must build in every local of the U. T. W. honest rank and file leadership, composed of the most active and militant fighters among the textile workers. By concentrated Bolshevik work, we can prevent sell outs in the future by the A. F. of L. bureau- cracy and the Roosevelt N. R. A. -nnaratus. Right now we must work to pre- vent demoralization of the werk- ers at the time of their defeat and their indignation with their Jeaders. We must fieht against discrimination in rehiring, against the blacklist, for unity of all workers, We must fight against the break-up of union locals by the exodus of disgusted workers. We must show the workers how, by aininy control of their unions, they can prepare for future strike struggles which will result in the winning of their demands, for higher wages. better conditions of work and elimina- tion of the stretch-out. 1 ‘ | number of sweat shops here during iNew Sellout, Declares A Silk Worker By a Worker Correspondent WILLIAMSPORT, Pa.—The tex- tile strike in the 13 silk mills in this district was called off by the big leaders, and it looks like another sell-out. The National Silk Dyeing plant is still on strike but they are breaking in unskilled labor. The deputy sheriffs caused a fight with sight- seers and arrested members of the union. They are now having a court trial which has been on for eight days. If the peaceful picketers lose it will show the courts up as a one sided frame up. The committee of 100 brought a the past year. They work beginners four weeks for nothing and a few dollars per week after until they come up to slave driving speed. They then offer a bonus for a certain amount of work done. When they come up to that speed they cut the bonus off. Then of course the workers quit and the sweatshop in- spires a new victim with the same promises. ‘These sweatshops move from town to town and rent floor space until | their promises are all shown up.) Then they look for new towns or | cities to play the same game. Police Protect Scabs On Docks of Houston By a Worker Correspondent PORT HOUSTON, Texas.—The cops and police are still escorting the non-union longshoremen back and forth to the docks here in Houston. This is being carried forth every day and has been since the strike was started last spring. NOTE: We publish letters every Friday from workers in the transporta- tion and communications indus- tries—railroad, surface lines, sub- way, elevated lings, express com- panies, truck drivers, taxi drivers, ete., and post office, telephone, telegraph, ete.

Whether we | centered on special Western Union| remain first, is to be seen. We will do our best. But in this article I wish to set forth what we have ac- complished and how. In the first place, Denver Section | at the beginning of the drive, was in low financial condition. Our | messengers, formed at the same time| Major activities are being stifled for lack of funds. Therefore, we knew extraordinary efforts would have to be made. The District as- signed us a quota of $100. Three weeks of the drive have passed and we have already sent in to the Daily from Denver Section over $54.00, more than 50 per cent of our | quota, Units are taking the cam- paign sexiously. Unit No. 4 doubled its quota of $5 and is on the way to tripling it. Units No. 6 and 10 are actively drawn into the campaign. The Women’s Educational Mothers and Daughters Study League, Relief Workers Protective Union, Co-operative Alliance, Slavic Club, Lithuanian Club, I. W. 0, Jewish and Hungarian, Russian Mutual Aid, I. C. O. R. and Work- ers Ex-Servicemen’s League. The Section committee assigned three comrades to direct the cam- paign including the Section Organ- izer who had experience in last year’s campaign. We immediately drew up a plan of activity, the basis of which was a weekly conference of unit and mass organization rep- resentatives. Letters were sent out, but in addition, the organizations were visited by comrades assigned. The response on the opening con- ference was good, The work of this conference in- cluded setting a double-header D. W. banquet and 15th Anniversary celebration for Sept. 23rd. Tickets and leaflets are distributed, posters made. house parties which are being held by all units. Though the affairs are small, punch boards they are effective. The conference itself is a means of check-up and stimulation of the Club, | The conference arranged | in conjunction with the | campaign, particularly in getting the funds in immediately. Each week the manager issues a chart showing the quotas and activities of the organizations. This chart stimulates competition. The con- ference raised the quota to $250.00 which is the amount we expect to raise. Denver Section has already raised 25 per cent of the counter} quota. In addition to this, we have raise, | $8.00 for 500 copies of the Annivers) sary issue of the Daily Worker, and we expect to raise more. Our main Weaknesses are, first, failure to develop activity on subscriptions; second, failure to develop street sales on a larger scale; and third, failure to carry on a wider ideo logical campaign. We hope to overs come these weaknesses in the re- | maining portion of the drive. This | We expect to do concretely through | Red Sundays in conjunction with | the anniversary issue. Denver Section is far ahead of | Salt Lake whom we challenged in competition. District No, 19, by. virtue of Denver's activity, is lead- ing St. Louis (Dist. 21) by a wide magin. In order to stimulate the | Disbtrict campaign, we are sending out our weekly charts to all the Sections in the District, and a letter describing our activities. Prizes, including a Red Banner, Lenin Little Library and a D. W. sub., are being offered to stimulate competitive activity. Denver is pushing the Daily Worker campaign to the utmost be- cause we realize that The Daily Worker is our greatest weapon of | organization, struggle and educa- tion.
