THE REBEL

He has craving taste for foods and friendships,
A thirst to dip and drink the circling streams
That float across the sky their starry flotsam
To shores beyond dreams.
He is responsive to the evening orchards
Where Ewes dark apple hangs enticing down,
To mirth of music, grown to melancholy
Over wide waters blown.
And sometimes he could yield supine surrender
Content, like Omar sharing Sads smile
Where tree sits the all to ardent sunlight
And beaded cups beguile.
But time evolves a sterner quest to lure him,
Shares him and sets him in a sitting street
To trample out the wine Of his tomorrows
With freedom seeking feet
There will his class, though he be not among them,
There will his sons though he be SCARED and SPENT
Dance through the days, drink life and love and
laughter,
And be well content.

CATCHING THE EYE IN THE
SUBWAY

Seven persons were in downtown Seventh Ave-
nue. subway car. Most of them reading.
few acted as if they were thinking, big bluff per-
haps.
Right across from me was young man. evidently
a work stiff with the face of one who had laid
on the broad of his back underneath automobile
bodies for living. The trail of thousand wet
rags on his face. 1t an oily face and you
could not tell by the expression it whether he
happy or sad His raiment qualified him to step
into any job that called for calloused hands and
soied overalls He was reading The DAILY
WORKER. So was l.
OF course this is not such novel experience that
it would be good for headline: Unidentified Per-
son Seen Reading DAILY WORKER In Subway"
Nevertheless l rusted out my copy in an effort
to attract his attention Two unidentified persons
the same train read a Communist paper! Here
was story.
The unknown reading the feature page. Sub
way patrons hungry for columns. Suddenly he
dropped the paper and rushed for the door, The
train had stopped. He made his exit
"a casual reader" muttered. This was not so
good.
In thru the door that the unknown reader made
his exit thru another customer. He was not
stylshy dressed but his overcoat cost at least S25
and his hat was all there. He also wore scarf.
He pounced the DAILY WORKER lying there
on the seat like a hawk a sparrow He glanced
at the front page, passed by Current Events" with
out batting an eye, lodged the editorial page if
MS eyes hau rested on a running sore and came
to halt on the feature page.
He did not seem to be interested but he was a
perservering fellow He turned to page five and
read the advertisements then to page three He
glanced at the top of the page and saw the China
man assaied from the top, from the front and rear
by lmperialst augurs. The caption was: Peaceful
Penetration" and the Chnaman remarked that he
was beginning to feel it himself The reader
chuckled, then shook with laughter. He attracted
the attention of another passenger who sat along
side of me. The laughing passenger arrived at his
stop which was also mine. He left the DAILY
WORKER on the seat where he found it. Like
shark darling for the tempting fat leg of a SWIM
mer the person who sat by my side grabbed The
DAILY WORKER and backed into his seat. AS
looked back to see what he would do with his find
be was laughing like hell at the picture of the
Chinaman.
Moral: Leave your second hand DAILY WORK

SEWER CLEANERS
J. O'FLAHERTY.

When, like a river god, with reeking boots
And mud-bespattered coat, he upright rose
From some foul hole, turned and held my nose
Yet in his face is that which quickly loots
The mind of scorn glance that darkly shoots
From beetling brows. He strikes no prudish pose,
But looks as one around whom daily flows
A stream of slime and filth and rotting fruits
For pay, he delves where other men would die
And keeps the sewers open meath the town.
He tolls in water and in sinking gloom.
Yet now he smiles and gazes at the sky,
Then hitching up his pants, again goes.down .
And saves the city from contagious DOOM

A Rich Mans Help
BY CLARA LIGHT.


4 day. asking me to come to see her at once.
When reached her home, l found her crying and
looking greatly distressed. She Immediately told me
the great trouble that befell her.
Her husband, painter, had gotten lead poisoning
and his right arm was getting paralysed. The doc
tor assured him that he may be cured providing
that he acts at once.
They were penniless for the wages the husband
received were just barely enough to pay for the
necessities of life. The woman gave me several adj
dresses of some men that worked at the same place
with her husband and also his boss address.
went first to see Mr. Cross the boss. can
hardly decribe the grandeur of his mansion When !
was ushered into the waiting room, was bewildered
by all the spendor and wealth that the room con-
tanned.
Mr. Gross entered, looking the part that befitted
rich and when / told him my mission, he
said:
"Wel why to me? am not DOCTOR"
81 know that you are not doctor" answered,
"but surely there is something you can do"
81 don't owe him anything. pay my wages in
full Fridays" said naughty Mr. Gross.
81 believe you owe him good DEAL" replied.
"a who works three years for boss has
produced enough for him TO make the boss him
something"
81 guess you came for collection" he finally
concluded taking two dollar bill out Of his pocket
and handing it to me.
I felt so mortified at this that threw the bill in
his face and left.
then went to the address of one of the men who
worked together with the sick He lived in the
poorest section of the Bronx; in cold, dngy apart
nent house the third floor to the rear.
When 1 told him the condition of my friends hus-
band, he sat back with eyes glazed and looking SO
frightened and shocked that sorry had come.
He finally got out of his daze put his hand into the
inside of his coat pocket and made out hundred
dollar check.
Here, it il the only savings we have. He will
pay it back to me when he gets we'll"
declined such a generous offer, but told the man
to obtain the cooperation of the other workers in
joint loan. This he did with will and that same
evening he obtained one hundred dollars from four
of his fellow workers who advanced this sum in be-
half of the thirty who worked on the job
each, weekly which would make sum of thirty
dollars week for the sick and his family until
he would be well enough to resume his work.
This is merely example of the thousands of
cases that are like this one, and can see my own
life revealed in the life of the unfortunate painter.
This proves that workers must organize militant
trade unions through which they may fight their
everyday battles to better their conditions and that
they must organize strong Communist Party to
lead the working class in the struggle to abolish the
system which breeds misery described above.
