SAVING POWER ON TROLLEY CARS

The gentle art of saving elcctri- city has been brought to a high state of perfection by the Connec- ticut company. Motormcn are ex- pectcd to make a good record and avoid waste. Here are the rules:
 "ssut of power as soon as pos sible; coast as much as possible; avoid making unnecessary stops or slow-downs; avoid flaming the air (the method of turning the air brakes on and off); save time in notching up, in braking and at the stop. Use this time for extra coast ing; watch the power saving hulIe- tin board"
 All of Which indicates metlculous care In operating the cars economl- callv. There being a plenitude or hills along the lines, the opportunl- tlps for coasting must be consider" able - also the opportunities for using up extra electric current Ill propelIing up hill.
 It Is to be hoped that the motor men have sufficient time to follow these rules on one-man cars; De- tween spells of selling tokens ana making change these gentlemen are entitled to all the honor which goes with the job. AS cashiers they are capable of working in any bank, ac' oor4inr to amateur humortsts.
 How much stress the compan!

Mother Makes Plea For New
 School For Lincoln Street

While there are numerous de- mands upon tho municipal budget surely the city should spend It's money first upon those vital es- sentials which will pay the best dividends in return. And while we nav need a trolley station, improved parks, repaired streets, and so on' these cannot compare in importance with the safe housing of our school children.
 New Britain may well be proud of the beautiful new schools. erected Tn the past few years in the north end of our city. But New Britain should be profoundly ashamed of one school-not only ashamed, but fear full. The city is gambling with the lives of hundreds of children as long as the old Lincoln school Is III use, The writer has been present mora than once when the stairways threatened to collapse under the weight of the crowd.

"Our recent severe weather sug- gests the timeliness of a few words on the subject of the proper sort of clothing with which to combat intense cold" Dr. George A. Bald pate recently wrote to Dore Reich enbaum. "I cannot over-emphasize the necessity of having all outer garments air-tight.
 This was brought home to me by an epidemic of single, double, and triple pneumonia in Overshoe, a hamlet in the Wisconsin veldt, four days sledge- journey from Milwan- kee. The cold was aggravated by high winds, after week of which the epidemic started. Its persistence puzzled me, for the natives are q hardy lot. Then, one day, l dis covered the reason.
 With a husky woodsman, Sven Borgsdof, I had withdrawn into a shack. the door of which stood open Even here there was strong breeze blowing and I suddenly realized that it came from the actual person of my companion. In an instant al was clear. The wind, forcing its way into Sven's pockets, was blowing through his button-h holes, thus pass ing across his chest. Next day h. was down with pneumonia.

KANSAS CITY, Kansas, Sept. "a

miners has sent a letter 10 the DAILY
WORKER and to members of the
Workers (Communist) Party here who
have aided the impoverished miners
by donating clothing. These miners
have been unemployed for fourteen
months. The letter, addressed to

aid the coal diggers, states:
1--WE as citizens of this community
who are benefited by the activity of
the DAILY WORKER in the distribu-
tion of clothing and supplies for those
of our community who are unable to
get work under the existing condi-
tons, feel that we sohuld express our
sincere thanks for what you have
done for us and hope that we may
merit your consideration for us until
we can all find work and provide for
ourselves"

AS WE SEE 1T
Continued from page H.

Continued from page H.
Non-catholic labor leaders are just as
reactionary. Both are corrupted by the
capitalist system and the catholic
church, the masonic order, the X. K.
X, the X. of C. and the thousands of
other organizations, religious and
fraternal, exert powerful influence
on their working class membership,
an influence that is inimical to their
welfare, as class.
THE capitalists have used the
1 religious and racial difference that
exist among the workers to keep them
apart. The ku klux khan has done
at least as much to accentuate this
division as any other organization.
Our policy is to unite the workers in
the unions on the basis of their
identity of interests as wage slaves.
We want to unite them on the polit-
ical field for the same reason. While
continually exposing religion as "the
opium of the people" and thrown the
spotlight on the policy of the various
churches, we know that eventually
the catholic and protestant workers
will learn that the churches are used
against them and not for them.
OUR X. K. X. subscriber is evidently
" we'll meaning fellow. But like
many more of his kind, he seems to
think that to be an anti-catholic is
to be radical. Nothing of the sort.
Some of the most bitter anti-catholics
in the United States are also the most
reactionary labor haters. The lead
ers of the X. K K, when they are
not tarring and feathering Negroes,
burning them at a stake or lynching
them, out on booze and raping forays
or embezzling the funds Of their or
CARNATIONS, are engaged in fighting
radicalism to the best of the ability.
DETWEEN the X. K. X. and its
- catholic counterpart the workers
have only a choice between two evils.
The catholic church is the greater of
the two evils because it is more
powerful, more intelligent. better led
and stands in better with big bust
ness. This does not say that the work
ers should chose the khan any more
than man who is offered choice
between hanging and firing squad
should pick either, if he had chance
to escape. The workers must steer
clear of all those hokus pokus organ
izations, and work out their own saliva.

also go on the ballot, and the large

eide who Representative shall be.
The joint board should also reconsider
the question of the increase in dues
from IS to SOC. because the member.
ship has never been consulted on this
increase. We, the melrbers of the
large locals, were compelled to pay
this Increase forced upon us by the
small locals.
Amnesty for Suspended Members
THE general eecutive board and
the joint board should also declare
amnesty forlall members participant

ton would surely result in reyiving
the present conflict. Such action
would surely result in reviving the
