party are given, and various living

special impromptu evenings where

What is most important Of all is
that after long years of darkness and
illiteracy we have now created schools
for the iiliterate and uneducated. At
the present time our club has school
for the uneducated in which about 20
people are studying mathematics, the
Russian language, and everything that
was formerly difficult for them to

IT Under czarism conditions were

women. We lived in darkness, just
like slaves. When power passed into
the hands Of the workers and peas
ants, we begun to feel what real life
was like. At our station, Ryazhsk 1
on the Ulyanov-Leninsk Railway,
there are about 500 railwaymen alto
gether. We have a club named after
Lenin; this is where the workers find
their recreation. The workers begin
to come to the club at 5 o'clock in the
evening after they have finished work.
They find everything ready for them.
All the latest newspapers, also books
and periodicals. Those who desire,
play chess and draughts. Those inter-
ested in physical training and want
to do exercises use the parallel bars,
ETC., which we have in the club.

study circle work of the club COM

Lawrence Lithuanians
Aid Passaic Strikers
BY a Worker Correspondent

LAWRENCE, Mass, April S0.-At a
mass meeting called by the National
Lithuanian Club to help the textile
strikers Of Passaic, $32 were collected
and several lists handed out for fu-
ture collections.
This meeting was addressed by sew
eral speakers, in both Lithuanian and
English. Mother Bloor, who was the
first speaker, described the conditions
OF the workers in the textile industry.
J. M. Karson who spoke in Lithu-
anian showed the need of the workers
in Lawrence to help the Passaic
strikers.
George Siskind described the heroic
fight put up by the strikers Of Passaic.
Police clubs, poison gas, jets If cold
water and the whole underworld let
loose on the strikers could not break
their solidarity. He stressed the great
need of the Lawrence workers fol-
lowing the example Of the Passaic
textile workers in organizing them
selves into a powerful united front
committee based on mill units of all
the workers in each department.

workers pledged themselves to do all
they can TO help the Passaic textile
strikers to victory.

fore l was not very much surprised
when heard the other night one of
the organizers give a report about
wage adjustments in the Nash factory.
He said: 1--WE took up the question
of the lower paid workers because in
the Nash Clothing company We are
not allowed to term them underpaid
workers, for the management of that
firm feels insulted when we say that
they have underpaid workers in their
shop"
OR here is a report from Brother
~ Snaps, business agent of Local IA.
who spends much of his time in Gin
cinnati: THE workers of the Nash
factory realize that while Nash is
good and sincere man he could only
have treated his men properly when
he had small shop and looked after
everything himself. But today, when
Nash employs thousands of people
with many managers, who are not in
terested in the welfare of the people
and are doing many things which Nash
is not aware of, 1t is necessary to have
a union that would call to the atten-
ton of Mr.. Nash such mistreatments."

K. c. MEXICAN
COLONY GIVEN
GARBAGE PALS
BY a Worker Correspondent.

following item appeared in the Kan
sas City Journal: "Steps toward the
first collection of garbage ever made
in Kansas City's Little Mexico were
taken yesterday with the inauguration
Of the sale of garbage pals to Next
can families by the Mexican welfare
committee thru the various social
agencies working In the Mexican quar-
ter.
$50 far as is known the Mexican
colony, extending from Summit street
to the state line and from Twentieth
to Twenty-fifth streets never has had
city garbage collection.
"The city's garbage contract does
not require the contractor to collect
garbage unless the garbage is placed
in covered receptacle, and the resi-
dents of Little Mexico have been too
poor to possess such luxuries as gar
bage pals.
"A few of the more fortunate mem
bers of the colony, those who had
regular work we're able now and then
to get their garbage hauled away but
the great majority OF the 5000 Mexi-
cans who live in the colony could not
afford even that slight expense and
the garbage was thrown into alleys
and backwards until 1t became a men
ace to the public health"

to the depth OF degradation that the
capitalist will allow its workers TO
sink. One limit line is reached when

dressed large and enthusiastic gath
ering of farmers in the Workmen's

In his attack on the mortgage sys-

ers will never be able to pay off their
mortgages under "the banker system"
because the system was not made to
function in the interests of the work
ers and farmers. The only solution Of
their problems he brought out was
the establishment of a workers and

Socialists Flay Each
Other in a New York
Local Union Meeting
BY a Worker correspondent

NEW YORK, April 30.-The meet.
ing Of the Bookkeepers, Stenographers
and Accountants Union No. 12646 was
enlivened by fight between the So
cialists themselves.
The fight started following the an
nual financial report, audited by a
socialist.
One item, the expense of printing
and distributing the monthly, known
as the Office Employees Journal, edited
by socialist, called for the wrath Of
other socialists.
The report stated that $55 was be-
ing expended for printing this sheet
every month. The auditor did not
give the cost of distribution, postage,
etc, which, since each member re-
ceives a copy by mail, must increase
the cost considerably.
Defends His "Ret."
Bright, a socialist, who is the pres
ident of the union and editor of the
Journal, was almost moved to tears in
defense of his little pet when some
member interrupted his speech with
yelling "hokum."
Then female genius arose and
said that she had figured out that the
expense of the Journal was only S35.
Everyone snickered.
Then arose another socialist and
with mathematical precision figured
that the union was bankrupt and that
no more money should be expended
for the Journal, which at best was
being used by the socialist Bright
to obtain personal publicity at the ex-
pense of the union.
To Demand investigation.
eff this is not stopped" he yelled,
81 will appeal to the American Fedora
ton of Labor and demand an investi-
cation"
Another socialist opened a broad
side against the Journal, contending
that it contained lot of buncombe
and nothing of real interest to the
Office worker. He said that it was
cancer. eating up the vitals of the
union and should be cut out.
Thus the battle ragged merrily for
three hours, and we so-called Com
munists enjoyed pleasant show. For
once they could not charge us with
conspiring to destroy the union.
The session proved to the satisfac-
ton of the members that the socialists
care little for the welfare of a union
when their own pet schemes are at
tackled and are in danger of being
eclipsed.

ICE HOCKEY NETS
ORDERED FOR RINK

ANY possible doubt as TO the future
of ice hockey in San Antonio was dis
PEELED Friday. when Joseph X. Tobin,
proprietor of the new rink adjacent TO
San Pedro Park, dispatched an order
10 New York for two hockey nets.
The equipment is expected to arrive
within Il week. and will be installed
permanently. Mr.. Tobin expects ice
hockcy TO become a favoritc sport in
San Antonio.
The hockey net serves the same pur-
pose as the cross bars in football, or
the peg in horseshoe pitching.
There are two iron uprights, between
which is suspended a net to catch the
hard-hit puck. The net is approx
mately six feet wide. The puck is IL
small block of hard rubber.
Before the target the goal-keepcr
takes his stand, after having made
disposition of his worldly chattcls and
stated his preference in cemeteries. He
is protected from head to feet by n
network of padded steel braces and re-
scmblcs n deep-sca diver.
The players on the opposite team
spend the evening trying to hit him.
When they miss and the puck goes
into the net they are credited with n
goal.

mage Friday evening. The Second Di-
