WHY / AM A COMMUNIST

Why did join the Workers Party?
Because / have realized that the dem
ocratic and republican parties have
never done anything for the class
room teacher to better his conditions.
They have failed time and again to IN
crease salaries (witness the last sal
airy campaign, to decrease the size OF
classes and TO permit free discussion
in the class room. Their interests
have always been for big business.
The Workers (Communist) Party is
the only political party devoted to the
interests of the working class, and
school children and school teachers
belong to this class.

ment; the winning over Of the masses
to the tactical problems and pulling
them into the struggle-these and
many other questions coming up in
the proletarian movement were
brought forth.
Formulate Program.
The time was much too short. But
all the same, all these subjects were
touched upon and discussions made,
and, above~a1l, on each of them was
made decided program by which ac-
tive work can be begun. And in this
latter the women showed themselves
more practical as organizers Of the
activities on the basis of real life
than many Of our men comrades, who
have long been in the party activities.
We can raise our hat to our
women comrades activities and in the
course of activities try to nag behind
them like calf after its milk pail, as
one proletarian woman comrade from
the country strikingly said in personal
conversation, when it came to dis
cussing the helplessness and incap-
ability of the menfolk.
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1926-10-14

can feel 1t on all sides, they know its
weakness, its strength. Thru ex-
perience they know the corruptness of
the capitalist society. And as a bird
mother watches her young, so are
they, ready to fight and sacrifice
when their young ara being threaten
ed with danger. The only differences
being that the proletariat women Of
the cities and countries know from
where they can expect this danger.
They know, that it is the capitalist So
ciety with all its attractions that
threatens their young. That is why
they are ready to organize a fight
against threatening capitalism. land
ready to draw with it in this fight, all
the oppressed and downtrodden
against this creator of evils and
wretchedness, capitalism. They have
experienced that acting singly will
not help. Therefore, the entire, vast,
oppressed mass must be with them in
the struggle against danger and for
the adjustment of its creator.
Hold Conference.
AL this was brought out in plain
facts at the women's district confer
ence held at Superior, Wis, Sunday.
Oct. 3. The women's sections had
made great Roadway. For one thing.
its membership had grown. Another,
it had become noticeably richer thru
past experience.
Participation was great. Autoload
after autoload cruised along the rain
drenched roads towards Superior.
When the meeting was in full session.
1t looked as tho some great party
meeting we're in question. From the
farthest farm country hooks women
had left their homes, tho none of them
had knowledge of the fact that who is
to pay the travelling expenses. OF the
latter, nobody mentioned a word.
Women Can Speak.
1t Is argued that our women COM
rades do not know how to take the
floor and deliver a speech. The SUI
perior women's conference showed
that there is no truth in this. On the
other hand. many Of our men com
rades can take example from them.
Nobody remarked the thought of an
other person over again. Each one
had something different to say on
the topic under discussion.
And what did they talk about and
what did they decide? The proletariat
education of the children, the organ

Third Edition Is Full of
Meaty information
BY MARTIN AsERN.

The third issue of the Harvester
Bulletin, issued by the Mccormick
workers international Harvester
Company nucleus of the Workers
(COmmunist) Party in Chicago, has
just been published. 1t is the most
attractive number yet issued. 1t is
quite well rounded in content and
appeal.
1t contains, among other material
a number of shop stories on working
conditions, hours, wages, the speed
up, unwarranted layoffs and dis
charges. numerous injuries to the
men, sanitation, conditions, etc.
Expose Company Union.
There is a report and analysis of
the last meeting of the company union
council and it's failure to meet the
needs of the workers. There is a de-
mand for a genuine organization of
the Harvester workers. labor I'M

and containing only workers.
Demands Fit Needs Of Workers.
There is an article pointing out the
Passaic strike of unorganized work.
ers and the inspiration it offers to
the unorganized Harvester workers.
The demands Of the workers are
outlined in relation to wages, hours,
vacations, the company union and
other points.
There are brief remarks on the need
of labor party of the American
workers and farmers, and the atti-
tude of the Workers (Communist)
Party.
An article on the conditions Of the
young workers in. the Harvester ap-
pears. These are worse than even
those of the old workers.
The shop bulletin lacks pictures and
does not contain necessary humorous
material. Conditions of the oppressed
Negro workers are not given. There
is no material on the situation of the
young women and girl workers in the
Irvine department. Comrades write
quite completely, but do not always
mention the names of the people in
volved that is, names and places
which should appear in the story for
the sake of emphasis and clarity
More articles and shorter will be re-
quired in order that the variety Of
the bulletin and its appeal and popu-
larity may be increased. The nucleus
is taking this up. Improvement in
this respect over the previous issues
is to be noted.
Rapid Circulation Increase.
The Harvester Bulletin was origi-
nally issued in Autographed form.
Fifteen hundred copies were printed,
size by inches. The second num-
Der was printed in the same size.
Three thousand copies were distribu-
ted. The third issue was increased in
size to by 10 inches and the edition
increased to 5000. An editorial com
mittee supervises its issuance.

Swamp Converted
Productive Area

An automobile trip to Hollandale,
settlement in Freeborn county, some
eighteen miles north of Albert Lea,
a short distance from Trunk High
way No. 1, is we'll worth any persons
time, who is interested in the devel-
opment of waste land.
Six wears ago some $1,000 acres OF
wild rice marsh, covered with cattalls
and other heavy growth was an eye
sore to the natives in that vicinity. 1t
was almost worthless. Today 1T is
one of the most fertile and produc-
tive tracts in the state of Minnesota.
The change has been wrought by APP
plying scientific draining and truck
gardening methods.
The water from the marsh was
drained into Lake Geneva. The re-
clamation project was started IN l92z
and that year two families settled up,
on the tract. This year, when gar
dening operations were started there
were 274 families residing in the re,
claimed area. The first families t.
settle. were Hollanders. They were
familiar with gardening as profita
BILE occupation and set about to make
the greatest amount of money in the
shortest space of time through ap
plication and industry-tor whicf
Hollanders are noted.
The district, which no" goes by thu
name of Hollandale, is veritabl'
garden spot. The greatest acreage
is in potatoes, onions, beets, cabbage
and celery at the present time. Al
though precipitation has been ligh
this season the reclaimed area has ;
most verdant and healthy look. How
ever, a large number of trees, which
were set out this or last year are dead
The lack Of moisture is likely tn

private in Company c of the 9th MIN
nesota Infantry. He recalls wildly
those turbulent days of '62 when most
of Minnesota's man power was down
south fighting the rebels; and the IN
dams, long fostering under gather
ing storm of discomfort and hatred
toward the white people, had hnally
broken leash and run amuck over the
Minnesota prairies, desolating farms,
burning buildings, killing stock and
leaving hundreds of settlers dead IN
the fields and in their homes.
"The Indians enm:ty suddenly far
ed up in August, 1862" he said, land
already there had been several en-
gagements between government
troops and bands of Indians. The
battle of Birch Cooley, ID miles from
Fl. Ridgley, was one of the hercest
in the campaign.
Capt. H. B. Grant, heading $50 men
in Company A, had been surprised
by band of Indians at Birch Cooley
|
not long before every horse IN the
| company was dead or wounded. These
were piled up to make barricade and
the men, equipped only with tin cups
and bayonet blades, dug trenches be-
hind them. Without provision OF any
kind. without water and poorly sup
piled with ammunition, this brave
company held out against the Indians
for SO hours, until our own company
summoned from Fort Ridgley, came
to relieve them They couldn't have
/ stood it another three hours, they al
forwards told u.s."

TIME

There is no one to sing "The Pris-
oner's Song" at the county Jail; no
one to sleep upon the newly made
beds; no one to work for the JOY of
working on the highways, because
there are no prisoners in the building.
The beautiful, costly building stands
as idle as country school house In
corn-plowing time, and as useless as
political candidates cards the day at
ter election. When the three men
who were there were given their lib
erty by Judge Peterson this morning,
had packed up their belongings and
their shoes had awakened an echo
for the last time through the corri-
lors, the place was left in silence. The
cell doors are unlocked and open. The
steel inner gates are like the gates
ajar for there are none to flee and
none have shown any great desire to
make it resort since the county
board made prisoners work.-Austin
Herald.
