morning, and taking job in the same

The packer has learned that this
tabor turnover" means an independ-
ent spirit in the workmen and less
profits. Consequently, the meat bar
ons are showing a new cunning when
they apply their class-co-operation
schemes under present unemployment
conditions when workers are only too
anxious to hang onto any jobs to be
had.
Combating unionism.
Along with this, the packers have
developed very clever policy in COM
batting any danger Of reorganization
of the packing-house workers. True,
the stool-pigeons are still on the pay.
roll, but a different psychology is used
in dealing with the workers.
The worker is now told that the
company is looking out for your In
terests. We will not allow our men
to be inundated by any outside
group, be it labor union or any other
organization"
The militant who slips into a pack
ing plant to advocate unionism is told
to quit intimidating the men or get
out" He is fired not for unionism,
presumably, but for '5ntimidation,"
new phrase which the packer is using
very effectively.
That voluntary" Increase.
In the summer Of 1928 the packers
astounded their workers by announc-
ing a wage increase of five cents an
hour, raising the wage-rate of un-
skilled labor from 371s to 421k cents
an hour.
Regardless Of what packer propa,
ganda may say, the fact remains that
this raise was in reality won in the
strike of 1922. The packer wisely
foresaw the coming period OF unem-
ployment, and reasoned that a slight
wage increase making up only part of
the previous cuts would prevent re-
organization of the packing-house
workers for some time to come. This
five-cent raise was nothing more nor
less than bride to keep the men
from recognizing.
Future articles will deal with or
ganization problems of the pack
ing-house workers. Workers In
other food trades, such as hotels
and restaurants, canning plants,
biscuit factories, bakeries, etc.,
should write Of their experiences
for the T. U. E. L. page.

Labor Crisis Demands
World Unity
especial to The DaIIy wOrkerl

NEW YORK, Nov. 2.-Represent-
atives Of over 100000 trade unionists
meeting at Beethoven Hall Sunday
afternoon laid the final plans for the
big reception planned for A. A. Pur-
cell official representative Of the
British trade unions In this country.
Mr.. Purcell Is to address a mass meet
ing here on Tuesday, Nov. II, at the
New Star Casino, under the auspices
Of the trade union committee for or
ganlzing the Purcell meeting.
The conference was addressed by
Alfred J. Boulton of the Stereotypers'
Union and a prominent figure in the
local labor movement, in reference
to Purcel's visit Boulton said:
Labor Crisis Demands Unity
I'VE are glad to have him here to
speak on world trade union unity. Eng
land instead of going forward, has
gone backward since the world war,
altho the sun never sets on the British
empire, according to an old byword,
we can now say that wages never
rise. The crisis in England demands
trade union unity"
Mr.. Boulton then went on to con-
trast conditions in England with
those in Russia. According to the re
port of Col Haskell, of the American
relief administration, Moscow is one
Of the busiest centers in Europe. Con-
ditions in Russia today as compared
with those of four years ago, are moth
ing short of miracle. Russia is the
only country in Europe. where day by
day conditions are growing better, For
the first time in history, Russia has a
workingman's government.
Insist on Investigation.
After two hours discussion, Wash
ington and Hamilton decided to re-
cognize the revolutionary government
of France, while the reactionaries re-
fuse to recognize Russia altho she has
been established for eight years. We
want scientific investigation of Rus
STA. We are going to hear both sides
in spite of Coolidge and the other re-
actionaries.
The conference is planning a mid
night banquet for Purcell The next
meeting will be held Sunday, Nov. 10.

Christmas RernenIbrance

al few years ago, we began to
realize that with the increasing
number of relatives, together with
the high cost Of living, the buying
OF Christmas gifts was becoming
impossible, and the things we might
make out Of the scrap bag somehow
did not seem useful enough to be
practical value to the busy mothers
who were our friends. So we drop
ped out Of the gift-giving habit.
and, as tactfully as possible, told
our friends that we did not expect
any gifts.
What q relief we felt, with Christ
mas no longer scramble to do
our shopping early" and to select
suitable gifts! Neither do we be-
lihye that the beautiful and expen-
sive cards and printed sentiments
we often send carry with them
half so much real affection as
would a letter expressing in our
own way our appreciation OF our
friends. So we did not discard
what seems to us the real mean
ing OF the day--love and remem-
brance and each year, few
weeks beforehand, we begin writ
ing letters to old friends, mailing
them in time to reach the recipient
on Christmas Day.
Sometimes we write forty or
fifty letters. and they are not
merely notes; they usually cover
the past years happenings. Some
OF these friends we have not seen
for many years, some have been
hunted up from the past and the
happiness of receiving their replies
lasts throughout the wear. In two
or three intimate groups we have
found it possible to pass a letter
on. each member adding something
until it completes the circle again.
TTiis way of spending Christmas
has brought more happiness to us
than the old way Of sending and
receiving gifts.
Divide Holiday Work M
When preparing for the holiday
feast, Mother doesn't want to have
to remain in the kitchen while the
rest play. We always arrange it
so that all work together, then all
play together. Each one in the
family is responsible for one part
of the dinner-one for the favors,
one for the salad, one for the
dessert, etc. We all have a jolly
time all doing it together and It
certainly relieves Mother.
Fruit Cake Pans
When you are ready to bake
fruit cakes, buy number Of lit
tie tin decorated boxes that are In
expensive Nand bake your cakes in
the bottom, then, when they are
done, lift the cake out by the
waxed paper w2sh the tins. put
the cake back when cool, and you
have gift cakes all ready in attrac.
tive boxes that fit They can be
mailed without an extra box and
are sure to reach their destination
in good condition.
