was told that no effort had been
made to develop connections with
the creameries Of other farmers.
even in the immediate neighborhood,
in an effort to develop the market
ing of their own product, independ-
ent Of the great distributing agen-
cies.
All that they knew was that sew
eral other dairies were not so sue
cessful. Some cooperative dairies
had, in fact, been put completely out
of business when some capitalists
came along from New York City
with 100000 and built a condens-
cry at Merrill for turning out con
denced milk. This condensery sent
its trucks out along the country
roads to buy up the milk at good
prices. The result was that the
farmers deserted thar own co-opera-
tives that offered lower prices for
the milk and cream necessary for
the making Of butter and cheese.
This creamery at Bloomville had
successfully withstood the coming of
the condensery. Its successful OPP
Grafton permitted 1t to pay good
prices, both to members and non
members. 1t returned to the farmer
the byproducts from the manufac-
ture of butter, as an added induce
ment. So 1t keeps going.
But it is doubtful whether the
farmers understand even the sim
plest Fudiments of cooperation. The
plant manager, brought in from an
other section of the state, also is
the business manager. The execu-
tive committee meets seldom. There
is supposed to be a membership
meeting once a year, but it is a per-
functory gathering. Yet this is the
only tie that binds the farmers to-
gether for the protection of their
own economic interests.
Great interest was shown by those
in attendance at our meeting at the
Town Hall in Schley Township when
l pointed out the great interest of
the Communist movement in the de-
velopment OF the co-operatives. The
farmers here had never heard of the
role played by the co-operatives in
the Russian bolshevik revolution. It
brought the Workers (Communist)
Party closer to them, the only party
of the exploited that had come to
them when all the other organiza-
tions were gone. Our Communist
Party can win the farmers as we'll
as the Industrial workers in the
cities.

SMITH SCOLDS
GARMENT UNION
FOR REJECTION
Expects Union to Come
To Arbitration
Especial to The Daily worker)

NoPeCldi TO no Odily WoFkerJ
NEW YORK CITY, Sept. Gov
ernor AL Smith has taken advantage
of the nice words used by the officials
Of the International Ladies' Garment
Workers Union complementary Of the
commission which took two years to
tell the union 1t was opposed to the
union demands.
The unions letter declining the gov
ernors proposal to arbitrate was so
full Of praise Of the governor and his
commission that he has promptly re-
piled by a query as to why the union
did not accept the commissions recon.
mendations.
Profits From Advantage Given.
In addition, the governor, after
agreeing with the union that his mo-
tives are the highest and concerned
only with the welfare of the workers,
proposes on that ground that the union
accept his advice and arbitrate. In
fact he attacks them for not arbi.
trating, and upholds the Industrial
Council of manufacturers, who stand
in need of backing in view of the de-
termination of the rank and file of
the union to continue the struggle to
victory.
"As you indicate in your letter"
says the governors reply, "the COM
mission has shown keen appreciation
OF the complexities of the industry
and have directed their efforts toward
basic and permanent improvements.
These recommendation were accepted
by the manufacturers but rejected by
the union.

UNKNOWN SAILOR
HERO OF SOVIET
river DISASTER
$50 Reported Drowned
In Boat Collision

LENINGRAD, Sept, /. An un-
known sailor is acclaimed today as the
hero OF the Burevestnik disaster, when
soma $50 persons were drowned as
the Burevestnik. a Soviet passenger
ship, sank in the Morskoi Canal on
Sunday night after colliding with a
pier in an effort to avoid collision
with the German steamer Greta.
Turned of Steam.
This unknown sailor, a member Of
the crew of the battleship Murat and
a passenger on the Burevestnik, re-
turning to his station at Kronstadt
from a holiday, ran into the boiler
rooms as soon as he realized the
Burevestnik was sinking and opened
the steam cocks. His action is be-
lieved to have prevented an explosion
and an even worse disaster. He was
unable to regain the decks, however,
and was drowned.
Most OF those who lost their lives
are believed to have been trapped be-
low decks, as only nineteen bodies
have thus far been recovered. A
rigid inquiry into the causes Of the
disaster and the possible lack of life
saving apparatus on a ship carrying
400 passengers and forty crew Is I'M
der way.
Scene Of Panic.
The sinking Of the vessel was ac-
oompanied by scenes Of wild panic,
and it is estimated that at least forty
women were among those who met
death by drowning.
Many passengers were thrown into
the water and others jumped, saving
their lives by clinging to the stone
piling Of the pier against which the
ship crashed.
Assistance Futile.
The crew of the German steamer
Greta lowered lifeboat, but it was
almost Immediately swamped by fran
tic persons who insisted upon clinging
to it and trying to save their lives.
When the boat was swamped those
who had already been picked up were
thrown into the water and drowned.

the country:
To the t tors of the New York Her.
ald-Tribune:
The letter from Alexander Sidney
Lanier Of Washington, D. c., in your
issue of August is hopelessly wrong
in its implications that there is no
discrimination against the Negro as a.
voter in the South. But we are not
.oing to deal with the mere implica-
ions; we are going to challenge the
tbsolute truth of two Of his state
nents.
Fifteenth Amendment.
First, he denies emphaticaIly that
the Fifteenth Amendment to the Fed
eral Constitution guarantees to every
man, without regard to race, color or
previous condition of servitude,' the
right to vote" And to prove that it
does not, he quotes from the amend
ment: "The right Of citizens of the
United States to vote shall not be de-
MED or abridged by the United States
or by any state on account Of race,
color or previous condition of servi-
tude."
That does not seem to Mr.. Lanier to
guarantee to anybody the fright to
VOTE" since it does not make voting
necessary at all, but simply guaran-
tees against race discrimination if and
when there is voting. But Mr.. Lanier
forgets that this provision must be
taken together with that earlier pro-
vision of the same constitution which
says: 1.-THE United States shall guar
antee to every state in this union a
republican form of government"
Against Race Discrimination.
Now everybody knows that no re
publican form of government can ex
list without voting, however restricted
this voting may be, and the Fifteenth
Amendment guarantees to every man
that this restriction shall not lie
against his race. In brief, the Fiji.
teenth Amendment only guarantees
against race discrimination where vot-
ing is allowed at all, and artiyle ~
Of the original constitution, by guar
anteeing a republican form Of govern
ment, makes voting necessary. States
may restrict but cannot altogether
drop popular suffrage-and the restric-
ton cannot lie against race. Hence
the guarantee. II an idiot or an ig-
noramus is denied the right 10 vote on
account OF his idlocy or ignorance,
still this idiot or ignoramus is guar
anteed the right to vote without re-
gard to race"
In the same letter Mr.. Lanier also
says with emphasis: "At present
there is absolutely nothing in the con-
stitutions or laws Of any southern
state that infringes or in any way vio-
lates this amendment-the ignorant
and preJudlced charges that are con-
stantly being made to the contrary
Notwithstanding"
A Good Example.
This statement Is so absolute, uni
versal and unconditional that to re.
flute It will require only one example
to the contrary. Here It is, from the
latest revised constitution of Texas:
I'm no event shall Negro be eligible
to participate in democratic party
primary election held in the state Of
Texas, and should a Negro vote in a
democratic primary election, such bal
lot shall be void and election officials
are herein directed 70 throw out such
ballot and not count the same"
This is from the constitution of
rexna. Wn Will not ston 10 quote

Piles Of building materials, floor

tubes, ETC., were being accumulated on
the ground level Of the De Wolf build
ing at 100 West Monroe street Tues
day. This Job was struck on Aug. 23
by the Chicago Building Trades Coun-
Gil because of the use of non-union
workers in the same trade with union
men.
At the same time the interior build
ing material was being stored on this
Job, the Citizens Committee for the
Enforcement OF the Lands Award was
issuing a statement that it had coming
from Milwaukee, Detroit and New
York fifty-three iron workers, six
steamftters and a number Of cleo
tricians as we'll as other mechanics to
be used in breaking the strike here
and also on the jewelers. building,
from which union men were called last
Saturday by the council for the same
reason.
Ready for seabs.
The imported strike breakers will
find several weeks material stacked
in the building In which they are ex-
pected to work and may put in all the
overtime their scabby frames can
stand without fear of getting ahead of
the job.
Laborers on the De Wolf building,
also strike breakers, during a moment
when the guards provided by the Citi-
zens' Committee had assembled in an
other corner to listen to a private
Joke, told a representative of The
DAILY WORKER that there were
about forty men in their trade at work
there and that they were getting so
cents per hour, without bonus. They
claimed they did not like the work,
but were forced into it by untoward
circumstances, ETC., the usual scab's
line Of talk.
Union bricklayers are still at work
on the walls, now up to the eighth
floor.
Extend the strikeI
The Chicago Building Trades Coun-
Gil was in session Tuesday to decide
whether or not to strike fifteen or
twenty more Lands award jobs on
the grounds that they are using non
union workers in trades where union
contracts have been made. One argu-
ment for striking these buildings has
always been that increasing the size
of the strike will be the best way to
prevent the Citizens Committee from
bringing in enough scahs to finish the
buildings on which construction has
already been stopped.

When through illness or injury

away and lose most OF their
power, Even when the injury -
healed or the disease cured they
cannot at once take up their nor

re-educated.
This is one of the most impor.
tant uses of massage. It requires

exactly the right amount OF exer.

other muscles to do the work OF
those which have been put perma-

has saved many a child from life

stimulation Of muscles, nerves and

But massage used in disregard
of such indications as I have here
mentioned has often done great
injury. It ought, therefore, TO be
used only as form OF exercise
by healthy people, unless pre-
Scribed by your physician.

MFR. HoBBIE was lying on the
W4 couch reading the Sunday
paper when his wee daughter
came toddiing in and climbed up
beside him. Without looking up
from his paper he caught her in
one arm and held her, until she
started to get down.
Now Anna and her father were
good friends and one Of their
favorite expressions was Anna

So when Anna showed signs Of

pleasantly: say. Anna loves Papa

But the baby did not care to
