Every town with a free tourist
camp has found it a financial drain
upon the community, provided they

the bonifide tourist who as a class
are men and women of high
character and standing. These men

Iowa and Nebraska farmers and
professional classes, are perfectly

SickIy, Peevish Children

Children suffering from intestinal
worms are cross, restless and un-
healthy. There are other symptoms,
however. If the child is pale, has
dark rings under the eyes bad breath
and takes no interest in play, it is
almost certainty that worms are
eating away its vitality. The surest

CLOSER UNITY IN
AMALCAMATED
Demand Wage Slices for
OVERHEAD Officials
Especial to The Daily worker)

NEW YORK, Sept. 15.-Calling
upon the officials of the Amalgamated
Clothing Workers to take various
steps towards solidifying the strength
of the union, local 81, of the A. C. w
of A. at its last meeting passed the
following resolution:
Whereas, in the capitalist sys-
tenn the employers have a united
front against the working class in
order to Cypress and exploit the
workers; and
Whereas, it is very easy for
them to accomplish their purpose
when the workers are divided among
various crafts and are very often
fighting each other; and
Whereas, such division also ex-
lists in the Amalgamated Clothing
Workers of America, which binders
the progress of the union, and
Whereas, various boards and their
officials spend an enormous
amount of money of our organiza-
ton needlessly, and
Whereas, the financial situation Of
the New York organization, espec-
tally, is in very bad shape, there
fore, be it resolved that we demand
THAT necessary steps should be
taken Immediately for uniting all
the New York Joint Boards into one
Joint Board.
2-That the Joint Boards, Board
Of Directors and the General Office,
do everything in their power to i'm
mediately accomplish such a unity.
3-That business agents be di-
vided according to the various dis
tricts,
4-That the number Of employees
of the Joint Board should be re-
duced, and
5-That the, wages of each of the
employees Of the Joint Board, Bust
ness Agents, Clerks, Managers and
their assistants be reduced by $1,000
weekly.

Russia in 1924, VIM. 2. Fosters &C
count of his recent visit to Russia, is
being issued as a 10c pamphlet by
the Trade Union Educational League,
lib w. Washington Blvd, Chicago.
Living conditions are still difficult"
Foster says in his summary of the
Rupssian situation, "but the important
fact is that they are tremendous i'm
provement over the frightful condi-
tons which prevailed few years ago.
1t is this improvement which shows
the progress of the Russian revolution
to success and which encourages the
workers to still greater efforts. Bad
off as the workers still are, all they
have to do is to think back to the
civil war, famine, plague and starva-
ton that marked the early stages of
their death struggles with capitalism,
and then their present evils seem light
in comparison. The Russian revolu-
ton unquestionably still has many
great battles to fight But the revolu-
ton will live and as it establishes and
fortifies itself, it will be an ever great
er stimulus and inspiration for the
international working class"

TEXTILE u Mo N
BEGINS WAGE CUT
FIGHT IN MASS.
Nothing Doing on Wage
Cut Is Message to Mills

NEW YORK, Sept. 15.-Oficials of
the United Textile Workers Union
say the resolution their convention
has just adopted against the accept
ance of wage cuts puts the issue up
to those employers who have declared
for reductions. The first battle front
looming on the horizon is in the mills
of the Manville-Jenckes company, a
$37 100000 corporation that extends
from Rhode Island to North Carolina.
over 100000 to Quit.
The Manville-Jenck firm controls
almost 100000 spindles of the $780,
600 under power in the United States.
The more than $4,000 workers in
the company received word that there
would be a wage cut of per cent
while they were at their looms.
1t is the opinion of the officials of
the Textile Workers Union that the
move for reduction in wages will most
likely be followed by many hundreds
of other large plants in New England.
This fight against the cut while
centered in the Manville-Jenckes COM
pany must be fought for the entire tex
tile industry.
Mill Workers Behind Fight.
Thomas F. Mcmahon, president of
the union, says an organization cam
paign is now being conducted in the
company's plants at Woonsocket, r.
l., in the Globe, Social and Nourse
mills; at Pawtucket, in Tamarack
mills Nos. 1 and 2 and in the Jenckes
Annex mill; in the Manville mill at
Manville and in the mills at Gastonia,
North Carolina. President Gompers
of the A. f. of L. and Michael O'Don-
support in its fight against this com
pany and Secretay Frank Morrison
of the A. F. Of L. and Mitchell O'Don-
nell, president of. the Massachusetts
Federation of Labor, have also pledged
assistance.

the repuDlcanS are giving the
big industrialists a tip to in
crease Coolidge's chances of
success by buying coal for stor-
age at this time.
How About Wage Cut?
When the party politicians first
tackled this problem, says Wooton,
they figured the way to get the union
mines started was to secure a reduc-
ton in the union scale sufficient to
compete with the nonunion fields.
When told that this would not in
crease employment because a cut in
wages would result in a correspond
ing cut in the nonunion fields they
turned to the idea that early buying
of coal would help the party and could
be advocated as good business.
1t is even insinuated, according to
Wooton, that Hoover's recent state
ment urging the buying of coal to
avoid congestion later was not entirely
the unbiased advice of a nonpartisan
secretary of commerce.
Buying Bargain Mines.
In an earlier article Wooten called
attention to the rate at which the
stronger coal companies, public utili-
ties and manufacturing interests are
quietly buying up high-cost mines at
bargain prices. This silent annexation
is likely to prove as important a part
of the consolidation movement in the
industry as the actual mergers which
get into the papers
ut is known" says Wooton, that
the number of captive mines (owned
by consumer) has increased greatly
The aggregate of their output is thot
to be approaching 200,000,00O tons
more than one-third of the annual pro
duction. Before the end of the year
it is predicted enough mines will have
been acquired in this manner to give
new degree of stability to the en-
tire bituminous industry. Normal re
quirements will be furnished by the
low cost mines. The less efficient
mines will be held in reserve to be
called into production to supply peak
periods of demand"

Clothing Workers
in Angel City to
Conduct Big Drive

Especial to The DAILY WoRKER.)
LOS ANGELES, Cal, Sept. 10
Workers in the mems clothing indus
try in this city are preparing for a
large-scale organization campaign to
completely unionize the industry. Lo-
cal 27S of the Amalgamated Clothing
Workers of America, have been car
rylng on stubborn struggle against
the efforts of the employers to break
the union by determinations and by
flooding the market with inorganic
ed and unemployed. They have finally
succeeded in obtaining the assistance
of the national organization, which
is sending Frank Rosenblum to Los
Angeles for the contemplated organ
ization drive.
Altho it is well-known that the left
wing militants are among the fore
most fighters for the organization of
the Los Angeles market, and that Ro-
senblum, general organizer and execu-
tive board member of the A. G. w. of
A, is one of the conservative right
wingers, yet the entire organization in
Los Angeles is determined that this
organization drive shall not be inter
rupted by any efforts at showing the
left wing workers out Of the most
active participation in the work. The
whole-hearted cooperation that is be-
ing offered Rosenblum in the drive by
all elements, it is felt, should result
in making the drive a great success.
