Are Women of
Today Less
Efficient?

We often hear the
statement that the
modern woman is not
as efficient a housewife
as her grandmother.
This is a mistaken inn
preston. 1t is merely
a question of different
duties and responsible
ties.
Fifty years ago prac-,
tically all of the cloth
ing was made in the
home. There were no
canned foods or labor
saving devices to make
housework easy. The
wife of that day was
forced to become the
manufacturing end of
the partnership.
T 0 d y m o d ern
machinery has relieved
women of most of the
toll of production and
they have become busy
executives with one of
their most important
duties that of family
purchasing agent. To-
days matron studies
the merchandise and
values offered her. SO
that she may get the
most out of every dol
lar spent for the family
well being.
The ]. c. Penney
Company always well
comes the inquiries of
the thrifty housewife.
The woman who has
learned to be a good
buyer is the first to rec
ognize and appreciate
the prices and qualities
we provide.

OAK CREEK INFESTED
WITH NEW CORN WORM

The European corn bore, which gives
so much trouble in the eastern corn
fields, may have come to this part of
the country.
Guy Hobgood, county agricultural
agent, yesterday sent to Charles T.
Vorhies, entomologist at the Univer-

every evidence of being the dreaded

The worm was secured by Mr.. Hob

fighting is a great deal more in vogue than pas
sive resistance"
Lately we have been Witnessing a form of
fighting. Village women, the wives, daughters and
sisters of the peasants, in crowds Of from $50 to
200 people and more, betake themselves to the city
las it happened in Tokyo and Osaka) break into the
offices of the governor or of the chief judge, de-
handing audience of the governor, or asking for
a revision of some legal case lost by the peasants
in court. Since they are invariably denied audi
ence, they kick up a row-as the newspapers have
it-abusing the governor, the judges and all the
representatives Of authority 1t is not always that
the police succeeded in restoring order by the usual
means, and they have to resort to armed force to
get these women to clear out of the government

asked these women whether they suffragettes
and to this they replied that they did not know
what it meant, but that anyway they meant to get
their rights.
Of course, the Japanese press doesn't report even
hundredth part of the agraran conflicts which take
place in various parts of Japan. But even the eagre
reports which appear in the press indicate an ex-
tremely tense situation
The government is greatly worried over the agrar-
ian situation. Lately the government tried to save
the situation by Transforming a certain number of

project is being worked out by the ministry of agri-
culture whereby one-fourth of all the tenant farm
ers are to become proprietors Of their andholdings
within IS years. This will require an outlay of 80
million yen annually and the government hopes to
get that sum by floating a loan. Nevertheless, the
peasant unions consider this plan an Utopia since
it is going to affect only insignificant portion
Of the peasantIy whilst the realization of the meas.

Thus spoke Mr.. Fung Ta-kao, wealthy Swatow
industrialist to his two daughters
To listen to him would think that Mr.. Fung

that category of nouveauX-rich Chinese who owe
their wealth and property 10 the imperialists and
who belong to the most reactionary class . No

nationalist. Being a landowner Mr.. Fung has been
ruined by the eXactions of the militarsts of his
district. He cursed his oppressors sowed his rice
plantations and went to Singapore and subsequent
ly to Java where he established himself as a small
shopkeeper After several years of economy and
prvation he amassed enough money not only to
redeem all his old land but also to acquire con
siderable number of shares in a tobacco company
of which he became the sole proprietor after the
death of his partner He contributed generally to
all national subscription lists He contributed lib
orally to the Hong Kong Shameen strike fund which
through the boycott of British merchandise made it

While he speaking, Mrs. Fung, helpless
witness of this family tragedy, was furtivelv win

The Young Comrade Section
NEWSPAPERS

The capitalists all the world try with every
means at their disposal to keep the workers and
their children satisfied with conditions as they are
that they will not revolt. Some of these means
the schools, the movies, the churches, the set
Element houses, the charity organizations the mill
tary organizations the boy scouts and the news
paper press. Thru these means they develop in
workers and especially in children the spirit of pa
triotism and impress upon their minds the fable
that everyone has chance to become millionaire
or president of the U. S.
This explains to certain extent why so many
workers and children ready to fight and die
for their enemies, the BOSSES This also explains why
the workers in the American Legion, the Boy Scouts
and others are against the "commoonists, {"
unions, Soviet Russia and the Young Pioneers
This condition we must fight against with all the
means at OUR disposal In the schools, our Pioneers
must point out to other children the bunk that is
taught. They must get them to Join the Young Pion-
GERS. They must point out that the Current Events
Literary Digest and other capitalist newspapers are
only interested in keeping the workers children in
ignorance They must explain that for children there
IS only one newspaper outside of the Young Comrade
Corner and that is the Young Comrade.
This monthly newspaper is the only workers chill
dren's newspaper in America. 1t must be READ as
well as supported by workers children. By getting
subscribers for it you are helping to build power

organized, too, they have SOP unions with 40,960
members. Both the farmers unions and the land
owners unions are united on national scale. 1t
is to be regretted, however that the peasant move
ment, united until the current year, has been
split on political grounds into three wings
spending to the Japanese labor movement namely,
the Right, the Left, and the Centre. The united
body of the peasantry has become divided into three
separate unions having their branches in the prov
inces among which there is frequent rivalry. Of
course this split has weakened the organized move
ment OF the peasants, but the split could not
stem the tide of agrarian conflicts.
The japanese government as it is customary for
all bourgeois governments wants to ascribe the chief
cause of the agrarian movement to the agitation
carried on by the peasant unions Recently it de-
cded to suppress the activities of these unions if
they should "ireite" the peasants to fight The
peasant unions of all the wings were preparing in
July to carry out throughout the country Week
of Protest against the repressve measures contem-
plated by the government
1t is, perfectly clear that no repressive measures
can arrest the movement of the Japanese peasants,
since the movement is due to their precarous eco
too, not inclined to yield. All the measures
framed by the government even if carried into
effect will prove palhatives. Only the revolu-
tion, occon3anied By naturalization of the land
will save the situation of the Japanese peasants

| Lost My Vacation

Dear Comrades Who wants to know what kind
of vacation the miners boys and girls get? NV
daddy promised me that I'll have nice vacation as
soon as school out. School has again started
and never got any vacation yet
Ny daddy got four months vacation together with
many other boys and girls fathers. But the coal
company never paid for that vacation, that's why
l didn't get any vacation. But it's not my fathers
fault, I just blame the coal comany.
Then we got little vacation. We were picking
berries for several days. How we scratched our
hands, and legs and our bodies ] want to know
who calls that vacation? That is the kind of vaca-
ton the miners children get. When we all get to-
gether and fight against the bosses, will win and
hon we will get real vacations
Comradey,
SALLY BODO.
