" While in case of a dance or a

Mitten Serfs Tortured
By Speed-up

by Worker Correspondent
PHILADELPHIA (By MaiD The
workers engaged in the taxicab in
dustry here are one Of the most
underpaid and exploited sections of
the working class. There is no taxi
drivers union here at the present
time. Machinists and auto mechan-
les are forced to work under the
most miserable conditions at the
Quaker City Cab Company: 10
hours per day, 7 days per week
and sometimes when storm ties up
the cabs they must work many
hours overtime.
The speed-up that is used here is
fierce. If mechanic fails to turn
out a certain amount of cabs he is
fired. Mitten, of course. controls
this company and this labor-hating
exploiter drives the workers almost
to madness.
The older workers worry about
dismissal continually since a couple
Of workers are fired each week. The
workers protest but the boss says
it's hard to get a job but easy to
get new men and if you don't do the
amount of work required you can
go.
No fans are used in the place to
draw the deadly gas fumes out. The
workers sometimes drop faint in the
shop and very often leave work with
headaches. The pay is from as to
65 cents per hour for machinists and
mechanics. The store-keepers and
tool-room attendants receive only
from so to 100 dollars per month
for 12-hour work day and 7-day
week. And this exists under Mitten
management by Mitten men.
The only way that the older men
can get rid of the torture of having
to keep up with the younger men
to hold thir jobs and to get rid of
the fear of being thrown out of
work, the only way to have these
miserable conditions in general bet
tered is by having the taxi-workers
in Philadelphia to organize into such
a strong union which will be able to
do what they want and place the
bosses under Their own power.

Films Cast Magic
Spell IN Europe and America

Like the puppet theatre of the
middle ages, the motion picture to-
day is mechanical art, and the So
Wet intelligentsia looks at it in that
spirit. Fostered and supported by
the Soviet authorities, it yet re-
mains an inferior popular art-a
kind of evolutionary prelude to the
real dramatic stage and real living
musical productions such as bal
lets, operas, orchestral and vocal
concerts. 1t is thus nothing but an
elementary step from a primitive
to higher culture, and thus in the
Soviet terms a picture should be
first and last kulturfilm.
$50 far as | have been able to see
the Soviet films, l prefer them to
our best productions, regardless of
whether they are with or without
musical features. To judge the new
Russian motion picture justly one
should see more than those few pro-
letheistic pictures that have been
displayed in America. Let us hope
that L. Moroson, the learned repre-
sentative of the Soviet films in the
United States, will enable American
audiences to see not only October
and 'SVD,' but the different ma
tionalistic productions having typic-
ally romantic appeal, such as "Splet-
nia-Gossip,' Cherry Stolb' BLACK
Post) and others"

BOGOTA, Colombia, Aug. 49,
AS British oil interests rejoiced
over the temporary defeat of the
Mellon interests when the Colon
bian senate unanimously agreed on
a motion congratulating President
Abadia for "the proper way in
which the oil situation had been
handled"
A preliminary motion congratu-
lating the government specifically
on the repeal of the Barco oil con-
cession, controlled by the Mellon in
terests, while meeting with favor
was declared unconstitutional for
fear of insulting the United States
government.
The state department at Wash
ington made it clear yesterday that
they were watching the situation
carefully and would be ready to in
tercede for Mellon in case he does
not succeed in coming to an agree
ment with the Colombian govern
ment.

MAIL OF SUNDAY
WORKER OPENED
British Police Spy on
Communications

LONDON, (By MaiD.-English
workers institutions notice regularly
that their mail comes a few hours
late, since they first pass thru a
political control in the post offices.
Mail immunity is supposed to be
granted by law, but the police in
all lands do not seem to mind this
law.
The Sunday Worker, a Commu-
MIST newspaper, made a important
discovery lately. The newspaper
received in its mail regularly a let
ter addressed to a bourgeois firm,
especially lately did these letters
come every day, But it is impos-
sible to locate the firm.
From this fact it is evident that
the police spy not only on political
organizations but also on private
firms when it has an opportunity.
Thru the maneuvers of the police
officials false letter is sent to the
Sunday Worker"
The newspaper has published the
text of the letter together with a
notice that the evidently a
publishing house-to whom the
letter is addressed, should announce
itself.

WORKERS MADE
INDIGNANT BY
SCHOOL. COSTS
Robbery Is Fine Art
With Educators
by a WORKER Correspondent

(by O. worker Correspondent
KANSAS CITY (By MaiD.-
There is a good deal of agitation
throughout the country about the
graft and general dishonesty of the
Harding Coolidge administration and
of Tammany Hall, the real boss of
the democratic party. But why picl;
on just these two political machines
Of the capitalist class when similar
yraft and corrupt on rules in every
city and state government.
In Kansas City, Kansas, the board
of education annually robs the poor
workers out Of tens Of thousands
of dollars. To be sure, free educa
ton is a great American principle
and tradition. However, the local
politicians who sit on the board Of
education, posing as educators, think
differently. They feel that cold
cash takes preference to all kinds
of principles. They have instituted
system of extorting enormous
sums Of money from the children for
books ard school supplies.
Almost every student OF the
higher grades has to spend from
II 70 IS dollars every term. To
SONG this may not sound as a rig
sun, but the Kansas City workers
find it very hard TO spare II doi-
lars Tor books. Particularly hard
is it fer those workers who make
from 80 to 80 cents an hou~. The
politicians from the board If edu-
cation have developed their art of
robbing the public to point If
unique perfection. In order to as
sure their steady income of graft
they change the text books every
year or every second year so that
the same text book could not be
used again. In addition, a student
is compelled to buy the text books
even if he proves to know the les
sons. So the principle is that one
must buy books. The workers are
indignant at this robbery. They
rightly feel that this hold-up> must
cease.
The Communist Party here has
received number of letters from
working class mothers asking the
Party to take up this struggle. The
Party, the Young Workers Com
League and the Young
Pioneers, will surely take up this
fight, while at the same time it
calls upon the school children and
their parents to organize. Some
workers think that they can force
legislation providing for real free
education. The Party makes clear
to these deluded workers that with
the state and municipal legislatures
controlled by the two old parties
the workers stand no chance of re-
lief and that the only way to stop
this robbery is to organize the school
and the parents and
through their organized force com
pei the school authorities to grant
free education.

FRUIT COMP ANIES
AT BOTTOM OF
HONDURAS FIGHT
Cuyamel and United
Interests Clash

TEGUICIGALPA, onduras,
Aug. 6, by MaiD.-The settlement
of the boundary dispute between
Honduras and Guatemala was again
postponed indefinitely by the refusal
of the Honduran government to
submit the conflict to the Central
American tribunal as proposed by
the United States secretary of state
when the negotiations by COM
mission composed of representatives
of Guatemala, Honduras and the
United States failed.
Guatemala accepted arbitration by
Central American Tribunal COM
posed of representatives of the six
republics, but Honduras, after wait
ing few weeks refused, giving as
its reason that the lists of members
from among whom such tribunal
could be selected is not final and
only temporary, and consequently
could not have any binding value.
Instead, Honduras says that it is
willing to submit to arbitration by
the president of the United States,
the Chief Justice of the Supreme
Court of the United States or any
other tribunal established by the U.
S. government.
Fruit Company Feud.
The American owned Cuyamel
Fruit Company, very powerful in
Honduras, tried to build railway
across Gutamalan territory to make
a short route for the transport of
its goods to the sea. The Guatema-
Ian government, backed by the still
more powerful United Fruit Com
pany, also American owned, refused.
There were armed conflicts at the
frontier, when Guatemala repealed
armed men sent by the Cuyamel
Co. from Honduras to force a pas
sage through Guatemala. When
this became impossible Honduras re-
vived an old claim to this territory.
The American government was
asked to arbitrate. Washington did
not wish to arbitrate between the
interest of the two powerful Ameri-
can companies. But while the Cuya-
mel Co. is influential only in Hon
duras, the United Fruit Company is
powerful in most of the other Cen
trail American government, who
consequently, in Central American
Tribunal would vote for Guatemala,
that is for the United Fruit Co. AS
the United States remains neutral
in this dispute, there seems no es-
cape from the present impasse and
the Honduran government is talking
war as the only solution.
