COUNTY HAS
DAIRY ASSOCIATIONS

County Agent Kerr has been work
ing with the Dairy Specialist from
Fayetteville during the week on some
special dairy projects in the county.
A milk cooler was built on jeff Law
hons farm, which viii serve as re-
frigerator on the farm to keep the
milk and butter sweet and fresh.
Plans are under way for County Agent
Kerr to build other coolers for the
farmers who need them and want
them. There will probably be s or 10
coolers built before the summer is
gone.
The other phase of the dairy work
that is under way in the county is
that of organizing Purebred Jersey
Bull Associations. Up to the present
time there have been 6 different com
munities to ask County Agent Kerr to
come out and help them get better
bulls. As result Mr.. Kerr has as
sisted in the organization Of six blocks
which make up two associations in the
county. Three of the bulls have been
purchased and are now in the com
munities. The other three bulls are
to be purchased as soon as suitable
animals can be found.
The following is list of the blocks
and their officers:

Judge ]. M. Futrell
Of Paragould, Arkansas
Formerly Acting Governor
For Associate Justice


The lawyers of Judge Futrelrs
chancery district, 131 in all, unani-
mously endorse and propose him as a
man and lawyer well qualified for the
position of Associate Justice, and he
is likewise endorsed by the people Of
his district.
His standing as a citizen and his
acts in public positions are well-known.
He was member of the State Senate
in 1913 and was elected its president
at the close of that session, by virtue
of which Office he became Acting Gov
ernor, after the resignation of Cover
nor Robinson, serving nearly seven
months in 1913. In 1913 he wasa mem
ber of the Constitutional Convention.
Later he was Circuit Judge, and sub
sequently became Chancellor of the
Twelfth District without opposition,
which Office he now holds He is fifty
four years of age.
The outstanding fact shown by the
public life of Judge Futrell is that he
is not afraid to do his duty. Having
determined what is right, nothing de-
tiers him from doing it. One instance
will serve to Illustrate the character
of the man. While he was Acting
Governor he could have refused to call
special election and continued as
Acting Governor for the remainder OF
the term. He received many letters
from different parts of the state, re-
questing that he call no election and
saying that the people were well salts
fed with his administration. He re-
piled that it was his duty to call the
election and that duty would be per
formed. He called the election which
ended his tenure as Acting Governor
and made Geo. w. Hays governor. In
other words Judge Futrell, by doing
his duty, put himself out of the office
of Acting Governor and thereby relin-
quished salary of four thousand dol
lars year and other compensation
personally allowed the governor by
law.

Studebaker Boss Keeps
Workers Divided Thru
System of Wage Groups
(5y q Worker Correspondent

SOUTH BEND, Ind, Sept. TO-
Those in department LOG of the Stude-
baker Motor Co. plant here, engaged
on piston line group work are max
ing an average Of $3.50 for nine hours
a day. The group is divided into
classes A, B, and c. Women are in
class c, and are paid from $3.50 to
$3.50 day. Glass A was making
last week between "a and S. a day.
Glass B gets $3.50 to S415 per day.
The group walked up to Mr.. Gin
land, the local slave driver and ask
ed for more wages, but he and his
fellow foreman, Mr.. Bill Smith told
them to go back to work and be
contented.
There have been wage cuts in this
department. The first time they sim
ply lied to the workers and told them
there was no cut.
In addition to that, the men in this
group are paid only for the pieces
which have already passed inspection
no matter how many were finished
If the company orders cheap, bad
steel, the men have to suffer for it
If the stock has not been properly
hardened, the men have to suffer for
it.
There is bonus system for the
purpose of speeding up the work, SO
that prices can be better cut. One
may get bonus Of as much as $50
or $50 during the year, losing much
more than that thru cuts.
The workers are beginning to see
these tricks, and also the scheme OF
dividing them into Class A, B and c
in order to prevent them from act
ing together.

ALBAY SPEAKERS
DENOUNCE WOOD
FOR MASSACRES
Say Governor General
Resorts to Thuggery

LEGASPT, r. l.. Sept. 1O-When
Colonel Carmi Thompson reached this
city, the largest in Albay Province.
which includes the southern part Of
the island Of Luzon, he found the most
bitter denunciation of General Woods
administration that has developed so
far.
The residents OF Albay are near
enough to the Moro districts south Of
them to have all received news Of the
coarse intrigues by which Wood and
his aids worked up artificial demon
STATIONS" against the Filipinos among
q few venal persons, principally ma
tive rulers kept in power by American
riefies.
Speakers boldly charged Wood with
responsibility for the massacre in Min
danao, and stated that he caused the
zamboangs incident, when hired Moro
tribesmen were told to menace the
Filipino residents in order to impress
Thompson.
American citizens fed from the
meeting in dismay. Such an incident
has never been known here before.
Thompson had to sit and take it.

Honesty to Company
Ruins Detroit Worker
BY a Worker corresp on dent.

DETROIT, Sept. 1O.-The age-old
capitalist proverb about honesty being
the best policy has been strikingly re-
futed in the experience OF one worker
here. Louis Schultz was in the en-
ploy of the Michigan Central Rail-
road as a car checker In the yards.
He says he was approached by man
named Frontera who offered him $7s
to point out cars good to rob.
Schultz not only refused the bribt
but reported the matter to his boss
The Michigan Central had F'rontera
arrested
Then Schultz landlady became
alarmed lest Fronteras followers
blow up the place and evicted the car
checker and his whole family. Schultz
had to go so many times to testify in
court that the railroad discharged him.
And now Frontera's friends threaten
to shoot him.

MOSCOW, Aug. "a -(By MaiD -
the strike of the employees Of the

which is in odessa stresses the ex-

are exactly conforming to the direc-
ton of their union. Up to the present
no indicedents have occurred, no pro-
posals have been made by the com
pany.

In Buffalo. Buffalo was the center Of
the organizers activity from January
to April. and then special attention
was shifted to Chicago district on
May /.
Vice-President Kanan, from st.
Louis, and vice-President Jerry from
st. Paul, came to Chicago and making
their headquarters in the Federation
Building, 166 West Washington St.,
proceeded to work in the railroad
yards of this great railway center.
Chicago Very Important.
The Chicago district is a big and
important one, taking in not only the
city Of Chicago itself, but all the
towns lying in the industrial area to
the south, southwest and southeast:
Joliet, Hammond, East Chicago, Gary,
Blue Island and others.
The switching service organization
had not kept pace with the times dur
ing the last five or six years, and the
resort to more energetic appeals to
the workers in this trade to join their
union is justified by the progress
made. Already at the end Of August
the organizers were able TO report that
twice as many men had entered the
union in the Chicago district than in
any month before, and since then they
have still been coming in.
Three Yards Solid.
One hundred per cent organization
+ of the switchmen in the yards here Of
the Great Western R. r., the Rock
Island and the 500 Line is achieved.
Several organizers are working be-
sides the two vice-presidents, and
there are several hundred applications
for membership on hand which have
accumulated so rapidly they are not
yet acted upon. They will be soon
however, and by that time the organ
izers expect to have other hundreds
ready.
Union Raises Wage.
Vice-President Kanan considers the
advantages of joining the union al
most obvious. Every worker ought
to belong the union of his trade" he
said, land the Switchmen's Union Of
North America is the union Of the
switchmen and switchtenders. It is
the factor that raises wages for them.
Even now We are moving for wage
raise. A demand was made on the
carriers last February and is going
thru the routine at present. Further
more, switching and switchtending is
dangerous. There would be innumer-
able accidents If the companies were
allowed to drive the men as they
would like, without the union con-
stantly struggling for decent working
conditions and for safety devices"

organ, the Jewish Daily Forward.
During the strike, the workers real
lied that the whole state machinery,
, the police, judges, etc. was modified
to crush them and break up their
picket lines. The gangsters hired by
the bosses to slug the strikers, and
the bosses, were never arrested but
the strikers were when they attempt
ed peaceful picketing. Why is 1t that
the entire government machinery is
used against workers whenever they
attempt to better their miserable liv-
ing conditioner 1t is because the pres
emit government ds a capitalist gov
eminent, supported by the bosses and
aiding the bosses in the latter's at
tempt TO crush the workers.
Communists Right.
One Of the aims Of the Communist
Party is to help organize ell the work
ers, irrespective of nationality, race
or trade, into a Labor Party-a labor
party that will demand for the work
ers the right to strike; labor party
that will fight the right of bosses to
use gangsters against strikers; Ia
Dor party that will not permit the
bosses to use the police and judges
against the strikers; a labor party
that will be interested in helping and
not impeding the right Of workers to
| improve their conditions.
Another lesson that the fur work
ers learned from the strike is con-
corning the role Of the right wing, the
socialist party and its official organ,
the Daily Forward. The Forward
gave all possible aid TO the bosses
to break the strike. Representative
of the S. p, including the late Meyer
London, had secret conferences with
the bosses and went over the head OF
the workers in an effort to betray the
workers. But thanks to the efficiency
and sincerity of the Communist lead
ers, the workers were able to with
stand attacks from all sides and were
victorious.
Communists Fight.
The fur workers learned as a fur
Their lesson in the strike that the most
militant and sincere fighters for the
interests Of the workers are the Com
munfsts. It is only the ideal that Ber
Gold (the leader Of the strike) had
as Communist-to fight to the last
drop of blood for the workers inter
ests-that gave him and the rest of the
leaders the courage and strength tC
Withstand all attacks and carry the
strike TO a successful conclusion.
Every fur worker should realize
these lessons and join the Communist
Party and become a conscious fighter
for his class. In doing this, he will
help Improve the conditions of the
workers and will aid in the organiza
ton of a mighty Labor Party thai
will unity all the workers for the pur
pose of establishing a government
that will protect the workers and MOI
the bosses. By joining the Workers
(Communist) Party, the advanced fui
worker will thus help to overthrow
the rule of the bosses and bring about
the final emancipation of the working
class.
