To Ny Fellow Auto eypsIes.

To the DAILY WORKER: Our
daily press which like George Wash
ington never tells lie, is getting
train fever trying to invent a way to
stop the influx. of auto gypsies.
Headed by Miss Adeline Burlington,
of Salt Lake City, move is on foot
to wipe out this condition. These
moron social workers charge the
American people with packing their
effects, and taking to the road to run
away from work. They use the
plight of their children to gain SYM
patty and assistance. They are ruin
ing the chances of the next generation
by teaching them not to work, ETC.,
etc.
But let us see why the citizens of
this country are degenerating into a
band Of gypsies. That there are null
titudes Of auto tramps is beyond ques-
ton. They come and go in every d.
rection. AS soon as q family pitches
camp fhe first questions asked are:

Letters From Our Readers

What do they soak you for gas, and
how much for camping?
Then come tales Of experiences and
hardships, and there are many.
While writing this a family with a
small baby is pitching camp. They
have 1916 Ford with broken spring.
They have not got the price Of a new
one which is $3.50. Many have no
tents and take pot luck with weather
conditions out under the open sky.
What do these people eat? Ger
tainly not healthy wholesome food,
to which workers are entitled.
This morning a family of six left
camp. They did not own their car,
they had s4.35 in their possession,
their clothes were in rags and they
had four little Riddles.
The father was willing to work at
anything, he had not seen a days
work in months. Does anyone mean
to insinuate that these people prefer
this to a good home and a steady in
come? They are on the tramp, simply
because they cannot get work. They
cannot pay rent so the landlord drives

WTHEN the workers of Russia or

eminent they established complete ma
tional freedom in their country. They
took deep interest in the list of all
the people inhabiting the land, they
found that the middle class among the
Jews is too large. 1t is true that the
peasant is also a middle man, but he
is a productive one, while the Jew was
non productive, and a non productive
element stands in conflict with the
entire situation of a Communist coun-
try.
The Jewish population In czaristic
Russia were not allowed to live in
large Industrial cities and states. The
Industries in the Ghetto we're not
large enough to employ a great deal
of workers. and the government own
ed factories, even In the Ghetto were
closed to Jewish workers.
Jewish employers sometimes refus-
ed to employ Jewish workers, because
they could find cheaper labor among
other people, so the Jews In Russia
were compelled to become the go-be-
tween for the village and the city
and be the merchant, the broker, the
middle man.
Jews Back to Land.
At the conferences OF the Jewish
section of the Communist Party of
Russia in 1s1s-1919. the question of
settling the Jews on land was raised,
but, Ukrainia and a portion of White
Russia was occupied in 1919 by the
Germans, and the question was how to
bring back the Jews to their former
settlements. In June of 1919, at a sec
ond conference Of the Jewish section
of the Communist Party in Soviet Rus
STA, the question of settling Jews on
land was the central question of the
gathering and the Jewish commits
sariat issued manifesto in regard to
Jewish colonization In Soviet Russia.
But in August, 1919, the Soviet gov
eminent had to evacuate Ukrainia.

can be found on the road. They travel
in fine big cars, stop at hotels, resorts

PRACTICE "oAsy ECONOMY

The A. A. A. is advising motorists
to practice gasoline economy. It is
declared that there never has been a
more urgent need for such conserva-
tion. II gasoline really be getting
scarcer then 1t is the motorists duty;
If the alleged scarcity be but an ex-
cuse for higher prices economy will
help to keep the price down. Be-
sides. doesn't the motorist owe it to
himself?
Data collected by the Bureau of
Mines indicates that the average au-
tomobile owner is wasting 30 per
cent Of his gasoline. due largely to
improper carburetor adjustments,
: but this is not all and attempts to
save too much in that way might
prove disadvantageous.
The waste from other causes, from
the idle running of the motor; from
exceeding the economical speed, from
letting the engine get cold, when 1t
should be kept warm, these and other
ways all favor wasting gasoline and
piiing up costs on the motorist al
ready overburdened.

But, goodness me, Mr.. Merry Sun
was too warm now to let ones s
thoughts dwell for more than a
moment on chilly days. June in all
her splendor was walking over the
earth and Old Mother Nature was
smiling at her children in forest and
pasture.
"Tinkle, tinkle. tinkle, tink,
Mrs. Cow must take a drink
In the sparkling Bubbling Brook.
Maybe she will take a look
In the quiet little pool
Where the fishes go to school,"
sang Bobbie Redvest from nearby
tree. My, how his crimson waist
coat glistened in the sun. Happy
little bird. He loved to listen to the
bell on Mrs. Cows leather collar.
Mrs. Cow was so used to it's music
that she paid little attention to the
Jingle. But she would have missed
it's tinlSle, tinkle had it dropped off.
Just then shadow fell across the
Old Cow Path. Quick as a wink the
little rabbit hoped under a bush,
not waiting for a moment to learn
whether the shadow was caused by
Hungry Hawk or a cloud passing
between Mr.. Merry Sun and the
Pleasant Pasture. Wise little bun
ny. Had he waited it might have
been too late, for with swift
swoop. down came that old robber
bird.
"Ha, hal" laughed Mrs. Cow, toss
ing her horns, on the tips of which
glittered two little brass thimbles,
serves you right, Hungry Hawk.
You have no business to be after
little rabbits" Then away sailed
that old bird, disappointed at hav-
ing lost a good dinner. Not a word
did he say to the nice lady cow,
who had walked over to the bush to
protect the little bunny boy in case
that hungry robber bird tried to pull
him out of his hiding place.
Dear, Oh dear" sighed the little
rabbit, II hope I'll always be as
lucky" and away he hoped into the
next story, forgetting in few mo-
ments his narrow escape.

The 5Sth reunion of the 5th Maine
regiment will be held at Memorial
hall. Peaks Island. Wednesday and
Thursday, June "a and rs.
The Aliquippa House at Small
Point Harbor is one of the Oldest
Summer hotels on the Maine coast
and was built more than 100 years
ago. 1t occupies historic site and
is to be extensively remodelled by
it's new owner.
Donald v. Atwater, well known
young Fort Fairfield farmer, and
successful principal of the Easton
High School, is not content to eat
the bread Of idleness or subsist
from the sweat of other< mems
faces. He is in Easton at hard and
conscientious work in his school
every day, and also in Fort Fairfield
en- his farm nights and mornings
planting and directing the work
there and also doing an almost
astonishing amount of that work
himself.
Grocers at Bath say that the sea-
SON has arrived when Saturday
nights are not as profitable as they
are during the season of colder
weather. They say that many peo-
pie who purchase literally of meats
and other foods on Saturday nights
for the Sunday dinner, buy less
during the automobile season and
instead of having big dinner at
home on Sunday, they take picnic
lunches and go off in their cars for
the day. They claim that much of
the money which they would other
wise get over the week end now goes
to the filling stations for gas.
The season in Aroostook has been
very cold and backward. The snow
left very early and April, except for
few warm days was cloudy and
cold. Potatoes planted three weeks
ago, long enough to be up, show lit
tie sign of growth. Grass is making
very slow growth. Old potatoes are
pretty well shipped out but there
are still a few quite large lots left.
Most of the starch factories are
still running and grinding up the
Gull potatoes. Owing to the cold
weather and lack of sunshine there
has been almost no clearing land,
or forest fires in consequence.
Roads are generally in very good
condition for the season of year.
Plans for the dedication Of the
Maine Building at the Eastern

VERY WELL, THANK YOU

Maine Is very well, thank you. Any
notion to the contrary is incorrect,
to speak mildly. In the last two
years the people Of this State, ac-
cording to statistics collected by the.
Federal Government have gained
nearly a year Sver the average
length Of life in the United States.
This isn't boosting Maine. but
Maine boosting herself.
In 1928 this State had the lowest
death rate from tuberculosis Of any
state east of the Mississippi River
and south Of the Great Lakes and 1t
is believed we are improving on
those conditions.
Think this overland II desirous OF
attaining old age come to Maine
the average age at death in Maine
for 1928 was 52.5 years as compared
with 44.s years for the 81 States
within the registration area.
Here, again, the fact that in 1923
63.72 per cent Of the deaths occurred
after the age of fifty years and 4e.S1
per cent between the ages of 60 and
IS. Seven Of those who died in this
State that year were more than 100
years of age.
The reason? II one should ask the
Maine Public Health Association the
modest reply might be: Team Work,
CO -ordinated by this Association with
other, health authorities and organ
izations. Secretary Thurber of that
Association has in another column a
statement respecting these health
conditions. Better read it. And,
while reading. it would not be amiss
to bear in mind that the slogan of
that organization-one that health
organizations and public spirited
leaders Of civic organizations are
sounding with confident note-is
this: "Maine the Healthiest State.
Can anyone think of better prac-
deal method for boosting. Maine than
may come from convincing the pub
lie that Maine is the healthiest
State? Nor is it detracting from the
splendid record of the organizations
that have contributed so much, to
keep in mind the fact that nature
has aided them. No cleaner air,
purer waters anywhere in the world.
And along with this there must
have been favorable living condi-
tions, wholesome food. fair measure
of the comforts Of life. material
prosperity, pleasant social relations,
conditions contributing to the en-
richment of life and the attaining
of longevity.
It is easy to understand why Maine
should be the healthiest State, there
are reasons to conclude that efficient
work to that end is being done, SO.
our job is to support these efforts
and make the best Of that which we
have in abundance.
