The Polish government is infiicting
new cruelties ON the class war pris-

sumption of the conferences of the
joint commission to discuss conflicts
on the Soviet-Polish border.

BOSS !

Petty Bourgeois to Core
Is Abe SuaII
lFr0m a Worker o0rrespondent.l

(From a Worker Correspondent
NEW YORK CITY, Aug. 1s-"who
in ell gave you permission to QUIT
anyway? Just for that won't pay
you!"
For a year Sam Watsky had been
working for Abe Suall, as a sales
man and general utility man in his
store at SO Orchard street, this city.
Salary, $12. He started with S12 UNI
til he advanced to all Of SIG per week.
Hours? All hours, with the eleven
hours from $3.50 a. m. to $3.50 D. m,
during the slow season and no def
mite hours during the holidays or Sat
urdays and no extra pay for over
time and Sundays.
One of Sans duties was bowling his
head and taking HELL" silently from
boss Abe and his family such as the
wife and father-in-law when ever
anything went wrong in the business.
The less Sam was at fault the more
violent boss Abe would grow until
common scoId was a cooling dove by
comparison.
The thing that most provoked the
wrath of his petty bourgeoisie social
list soul was the fact of Sans being
a member of the Young Workers
League. And never did he miss a
chance to expose the young rebel be-
fore statesmen and fellow tradesmen.
Of late he grew particularly obnoxious
in his practice, as the struggle was
sharpening between the needle trades
unions and the forward" and Inter-
national machine.
The DAILY WORKER became ia
boo in the store. Sam mustn't bring
that Communist paper" into social
list store. Things become unbearable.
Sam refused to be the butt OF boss
Abe's prosecutions any longer and he
just quit. With the result that the
boss refuses to pay him his salary for
the last weeks labor.
The above described is typical OF
conditions prevailing in most petty
business. There the bosses are them
selves often members of the S. P.
and ruthlessly exploit and abuse their
one or two employees. These workers
are completely at the mercy of their
bosses, since there is no organiza-
ton, nor an attempt at any among
these lowly paid wage slaves.

center OF a government reclamation
project. The settlers are largely old
time radicals A good example Of the
economic conditions which have
forced these farmers to give ear to
the Communist program is the follow
ing:
Last year one of the farmers ship
ped 900 crates of the finest melons to
the Chicago Market and for the net
results of the Seasons labor spent by
himself and his family in cultivation,
they received the magnificent sum of
$500. AS there were 20 melons to
the crate, these $4,000 melons thus
returned the farmer an average of one
twenty-fifth of a cent each. This year,
the farmer planted no melons.
The farmers here seem to realize
that the Communist position regard
ing an alliance of the working farmers
and the industrial workers for the
overthrow of the capitalist system
is the only way out for them.

PERFECT ANNOUNCING

Not because there are many radio
announcers, but because their work
touches so many people, this new pro-
fession is subject of widespread
interest. What are the marks of an
ideal announcer? A radio voice
technique committee" of New York
University, consisting of many able
and distinguished members, reports
as. follows:
He has voice of low middle
range"
He speaks at the average rate of
175 words a minute.
He changes his rate of utterance
pitch and stress. to avoid monotony
He speaks in a formal but friendly
manner, adapting his style to the pro
gram.
He speaks with moderate distinct.
ness.
AS for relative Importance, the
committee places rate of delivery
first, stress variations second, dis
tinctness third.
1t is specifically stated that wow,
ell elongation is very bad
These tips should be taken to heart
by broadcasters. Some of them seem
to imagine they have to drawl their
words out and go into an agony OF
careful articulation in order to get
their announcements across Such
utterance means agony to the listen
ers, because of the evident effort and
the lamentable loss of time. Anyone
who cannot speak clearly while
speaking easily naturally and rapidly
should not be in the broadcastin2
business.

FOOTBALL IN SPAIN

The ball is displacing the bull in
Spain. 1t is soccer football This
English game is credited with having
Won such favor in Madrid that the
Sunday football matches are crowded,
while the ranks Of bull ring fans are
thinning. Impetus is given this inno-
vation in Spanish sport by the visit
OF soccer teams from Argentina and
Uruguay. The game has already made
great headway in Latin-America.
Anything that will discourage the
old, brutal amusement of bull-baiting
and hOrse-goring is so much to the
good. 1t was never a genuine sport,
because it was one-sided. The bull
fighter might be hurt or killed but the
bull was sure to be slain, and horses
always suffered cruelty. The clean,
square British football game will be
good for the Spaniards.
The American game of baseball
would probably be still better for
them. And they will come to it in
time

COMPANIES LOOKING FOR CLAY
AND PYRlTE

Two communications requesting
information about two minerals by
reliable mining concerns have been
received by the Yavapai chamber of
commerce, and any one who is able
to furnish the material desired by
these companies is asked to advise
them.
One of the letters from Charles
Apablasa of Los Angeles, requests
that any one having a deposit Of
clay which will decolorize oils COM
municate with him at once. Mr..
Apablasa may be reached by writing
him in care of the Los Angeles Non
Metallic Company, 944 Francisco ST..
Los Angeles.
The other letter is from the Foote
Radio Corporation of Philadelphia
which is anxious to receive samples
of pyrite that is hard, brilliant,
smooth breaking and compact. The
communication states that is an es-
tablished fact that pyrite is being
mined around Huron, Arizona, which
is satisfactory for radio purposes.
This supply already has been con-
tracted for elsewhere and the com
pany is interested in receiving sam
pies direct from producers. The py-
rite must have the qualities mention
ed or it will not answer the purpose
the inquiry states. The company
adds that it is prepared to pay $500
a ton for a good grade of the min
eral, that it is. glad to furnish refer
ences and that it is a member of the
Philadelphia chamber of commerce.
Communications to the company
should be adressed to the Foote

CannibaIistic Animals and Rodents

R. j. Martin, the Parker plumber,
has discovered that mice and rodents
so prevalent in that part of Arizona
are cannibahstic and devour each
other. Hogs and other animals do
the same. The old saying of dog
eat dog probably arose from the
fact that in British Columbia. Alaska,
Iceland and other countries, CANNES
do the same. Humans also literally
eat each other in a business sense
in the large cities where food com
binations hoard the necessities of life
and put the prices out of reach of
their fellow beings

MUNICIPAL TAXES MOST BUR-
DENSOME

Senator Capper of Kansas, declares
that while federal taxes have been
considerably reduced during the past
four years, municipal taxes have in
creased 800 to 400 per cent The
heavy burden of these taxes is placed
on the home owner
The principal reason for the decline
of federal taxes, is that we have
stopped a large share of the eXpendi-
ture which four years ago was going
for war purposes. Municipal govern
ments do not have to pay for any
wars or preparation for war, so that
they have no similar field to which
thay can look for economies
The purposes for which they spend
money are needed just as much as
they were in 1921. Standards of edu-
cation, of road building, and other
public services tend to become higher
as the years go on. In many places
the salaries of public officials re-
sponded slowly to the need caused by
the higher range of prices, so that
it may be necessary in such cases
to pay public officials just as much
as they were paid in 1921, possibly
more in some instances.
Nevertheless, the majority of mum
lcIpal governments are probably
spending too much. The business
men of such cities should be appealed
to for some positive movement to get
taxes down. They should not be sat
isfied with mere criticism.

Planning a Flower earden-Great

Planning Flower Garden-Great
strokes of gardening are performed
about now, as people study seed cata-
logs and look over their land to see
where they would like to create some
new beauty spot. The seed catalog
can we'll be excused. if it paints those
flowers and shrubs little more bril-
liant and wonderful than they really
are. The rewards for such an effort
are worth very much more than it
costs. Any patch Of flowers which is
we'll tended enough so that it blooms
regularly, adds to human cheerful
ness, and knits you to your home by
tendrils of affection. 1t makes you
feel that the spot which has been
given yous is a little better than any
other place. 1t helps dispel those
sentiments of restlessness that go so
far to counteract our blessings, and
one element in that philosophy of
contentment that is worth infinitely
more han heaps of dollars.
1t would be fine thing for Five
Points if good number of our citi-
zens would start construction on
some pretty modern homes. Some
people send money away a long dis
tance to put it in investments that
they have not properly investigated,
and stand considerable chance of
loss. If they would take some of this
money and use it in building homes
here, their funds would be secure.
and they would feel pride that they
had helped develop their home town.

Rural mail route carriers out of
Phoenix Will receive an increase in
their pay checks of from S25 to $40
per month, according to latest postal
regulations received by Postmaster
James Jones. The increase becomes
effective April Is, and will reimburse
the carriers for the maintenance of
their vehicles at the rate of four cents
per mile thus allowing greater facili-
ties for the rapid distribution of mails
at no cost to themselves in the way of
repairs and the upkeep of their autos.
