CARPENTERS OCAL 1000
ELECT MILITANT
az a Worker Covespondent1

by a Worker Correspondent
Once again the fight is on in Lo-
cal 2090 of the United Brotherhood
of. Carpenters of America, for the
office Of Business Agent. This be-
ing the case, it is well to point out
a few facts as to the elements in
volved and the qualifications of the
men who are aspiring to this very
important position. This, indeed is
vitality important to the member
ship at large, as it will be in this
mans hands that our future de-
ponds.
There are a number of men in
Local 2090 who really understand
and know the tendency Of labor and
labor leaders, to which they have
given a lifetime study. They have
given careful thought as to the hap
penings at the recent convention,
which resulted in the expulsion of
one of our foremost fighters for
having had the courage to battle the
reactionary elements at this conven-
ton. This local has among its mem
bership some of this reactionary
type, who, more than anyone else,
not only permitted but were instru-
mental in bringing on the condition
whereby such expulsion could have
taken place. And, so, these are the
people, the very ones who are as
piring to be and are in way at the
top, and would in all probability con-
t.nue their dark and sinister work
Of disrupting all efforts of true
union activities in behalf of all work
ers, which of course would be for
their own personal gain, never con-
sidering how small or how filthy it
may be, so long as they arrive at
their objective.
To combat such vile and unprin-
cipled moves on their part it is not
small matter for those Of the
workers who can see clearly and are
in progressive spirits, but they
must, as the need is great, to resist
with united strength the moves of
such selfish men who seek to be
elected to Business Agent for no
other reason but to gain their own
selfish end. These kind of men, all
true and class-conscious workers
should work against, and rightly so,
for they deserve to be defeated.
This, bad as it is, is only mild

compared to one So called man who,
by appearance, sets himself up as
"model of virtue" in everything,
end no doubt sets himself up as a
spiritual leader and advisor to lead
the flock, and, strange to say, but
not surprising, that he does carry
weight with such of the member
ship who do not yet understand his
motives of underhandedness and
are modest enough to follow blindly
this man, who by his very own ac-
tons betrays himself, a self-cen-
tered, shrewd mystifier of facts,
but all the more dangerous because
Of his qualities, for he could, and
would for a consideration, be
counted as one who would at all
times betray the trust given him
with ease. This is the type of man
who is aspiring for election and his
name is Berenzy.
Needless to say, the progressive
side of this local, knowing all this,
cannot, and will MOI, submit to such
procedure without attempting to
counterfeit, and with the help of all
the progressive members hope to
put and keep this local on a solid
foundation by electing a man, one
whom they trust to the fullest ex-
tent, one whom they know will be
faithful in carrying out the prin-
ciples of true unionism and work
ing class solidarity to the best of
his ability. Such a man is Solder;
man true to his word and his sup
porters, and, above all, to the men,
bers in general, as he can be counted
on firmly to advance labor with the
trend OF time.
Now in due consideration Of all
these facts, it is not difficult to I'M
derstand that it is necessary to band
together for the good of the cause
and show them that when the time
arrives for concerted action we can
defeat such henchmen with black
past, and, by so doing, insure our
selves with a clean, upright order
of things, and can look forward to
lettering ourselves socially as well
as materially.
Altogether, brothers; work for
Soldiers election as Business Agent
and defeat Berenzy and his other
J aspiring lieutenants.

the crop in Mckenzie County was
good, the farmers are not making
anything. In many ways the crop
is loss instead of a gain, because
of the very low price. The farmers
are at the turning point. They have
had enough of capitalism and are
more and more seeing that only a
workers and peasants government
will do them any good. One of the
things that is also noticeable is that
the so-called progressive" and

Tess, one of the worlds greatest

birthday at ParkdaIe Farm here.
Tess is a mare who has nevei

has, nevertheless. pulled thousands
of lives out of danger. When she
was 4 years old she was added
to the herd which is maintained

1t was in May. 1917. that she
came to Parkdale and she was inn

protection of the American soldiers.
In the II years she has been
on the job. Tess has produced o2S

which amounts to thousands OF
doses. The soldiers in the war and
numerous civilians since then owe
their lives to Tess. who has enabled
them to be protected from the dan

Although Tess is serving man in
a unique way. she is no martyr TO
science or to humanity. She has
already exceeded the life expec.

seems well content with her lot.
She has never been sick or laid
