PROTECT THE FLOWERS

Those who enjoy the beauty of Imperial Valleys
desert wild flowers have registered protest against
the custom which has prevailed here for several sea-
past of pasteurng large flocks of sheep the
desert to feed on the flowers.
Each year when there has been sufficient rain
during the winter the desert is carpeted in the spring
with profusion of gorgeous flowers, which
joyed not only by many residents here, but attract
visitors from the coast and other parts of the state
The desert, being public domain, is open to stock
for grazing purposes and it is doubtful If any
thing be done to prevent its being used for this
purpose
However, it would that the sheepmen, if
they unwilling to abandon the custom of pasturng
their sheep the flowers might at least cooperate
by pasturng them away from the main highways,
which usually bordered with strips of the flowers.
Undoubtedly there is sufficient pasturage without
using that nearest the highways.
Sheep. of course ARE material assets while flow
ers are merely idealistc. But then don't pay just
little too much attention to material things, and not
quite enough to the idealistic?

PAINTERS FIGHT
WINS BACK PAY
But Mechanics Lose
Out

After carrying on a fight in the
supreme court here for some time
more than $500 claimants have won
$1,O00,000 in back pay from this city.
This back pay was won by the pain
ters in the department of plant and
structures. Because the mechanics
had entered no official protest at the
time they were given the lowered
wages, they are without legal basis
to fight their case in court. The city
will, therefore, not pay them their
due money.
The painters had amounts of
back pay returned to them which
ranged from 5000 to $4,000. The
workers had signed the original pay
rolls under protest.

To Young Worker Section, Daily

The Young Workers League Edu.
catlonal Courses began in Hancock,
Michigan on July 10th. We are for
tunate in having Comrade Hayes
and Rahkonen as instructors. There
are forty-two students in all from
Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan.
The subjects being taught are:
Sociology, Role and Program of the
Communist Youth, Public Speaking
American History (the workers
viewpoint) and MARKHAM Economics.
We also read the Daily Worker
Young Worker and the Tyomies.
The studies make clear to us, as
young workers what our position is.
and how we can better our condi-
tons. We are given a true outlook
on the chance of worker at present.
and the possibilities he would have
in Communist society. We have
interesting lectures, discussion cir
cles and meetings. The students
themselves organize the activities
about the school, and thus are given
training which may be of help in
the future. We have Discipline
Committee. Sports Committee and
Wall ewspaper Committee. The
Newspaper is to be called "The
Yowles Echo"
The instructors are doing their
utmost to have US realize the i'm
portance of organization of young
workers. We must cooperate with
our instructors and our comrades
while we are here, in order that we
may keep other young workers and
explain to them how our present
system of society is wrong. We
should try to learn the ways of
establishing more stepping stones
for our Communist society. Com
rades, let US all cooperate and do
our bit for what we set as our goal.
