1 Preparing for an active winter of auto repair work, E. F. Wood is in- istalling some new and modern equipment in his machine shop at the Pete Ogle Garage, where he will
 soon be in shape to handle any kind of a job offered him in the way of automobile repair, since he is an expert in that line of work. MT. Wood was formerly with the radio station here and previously to
 that time had charge of a fleet of trucks and automobiles on the Richardson Highway.
 He has installed a lathe and dill- ing machine in the upper story of the Ogle Garage and is expecting the shipment of new and up-to- date cylindar grinder known as the Hutto said to be the last word in efficiency introducing new prin- cipal in this line of work. Jobs that now cost lot of money and much delay to send Outside will be han- died in the Woods Shop and there will be no occasion Woods says to go to that extra expense or stand that delay in the near future.

All the more northern states have
been supplied with Combines" which
make them as bad as Oklahoma. Be
sides, there is absolutely no work to

Shoot Starving Worker.
Early this morning a poor starving
worker broke into restaurant for
food and was shot. He was taken to
the Oklahoma General Hospital in a
dying condition. This is the third
restaurant that has been entered
for food within one week.
Men are breaking into high school
cafeterias here for food.
Five thousand dollars was lately
paid to a visiting Chicago preacher
for four days work" here, while all
the way from Grand Ave. south on
Robinson st. to the Frisco tracks,
hundreds of unoccupied workers,
many of them married, were starving
and begging for even loaf of bread.
Mothers Hustle"
Lots of unemployed married work
ers here have been forced to stay with
the children at that lousy place called
home while their wives are compelled
to take to the street and "hustle."
| saw a good woman, christian,
and the wife of an unemployed La
borer, being forced into this the other
day. She said it was either that or
starve and when she heard her little
ones crying for something to eat she
was driven to it.
And yet capitalism doesn't want to
destroy the home! The rats!
I am broke and out of work, but
there are thousands like me here.
Just stand at Robinson and Reno any

BOYS FORGOTTEN
IN Los ANGELES
JAIL FOR Weeks
Judge Irate; Now About
600 Labor Prisoners
(Bg a Worker Correspondent)

LOS ANGELES, Cal, (By MaiD.-
Mr. g. A. Arnold, 668 West 9th ST.
San Pedro, lost his automobile March
9. San Pedro, a seaport, of Los An
geles, is the "Fink City" of the lumber
trust, shipping interests and the fish
ing industry, etc. This place was the
hottest hell-hole of police brutality in
the country during 1923-1924 Even
Upton Sinclair was arrested for read
ing the Constitutions of the United
States and the state of Cali 'ornia,
The reading took place on private
property, Liberty HILL" with TIE
consent of the owner, a liberal-minded
woman.
Now, to come back to the main
story, two young men, Babe De La
Cruz and Marvin Dennison, were ac-
cused of having Borrowed" Arnold's
auto. The boys were arrested in Ne
vada City by Deputy Sheriff Dan
Crowley, who transported them back
to the Los Angeles County Jail,
March 81. They were put under 81, 800
bail each and forgotten" for two
months without a hearing
After two months loss of memory
by the police department. the '.mis-
take" was discovered. The youths
were brought into Municipal Judge
Baird's court for arrangements. Po-
lice Officer E. R. Dunthy of San Pc
dro was made the goat" in a way,
but the judge also attacked police de-
partment inefficiency," saying, in
part. as follows:
"This outrage of constitutional
rights of these men is directly trace
able to the gross inefficiency of the
police department" exclaimed Judge
Baird. "There is absolutely no reason
why men should be thrown into Jail
and kept there for two months be-
cause police officers fail to carry out
their duties"
No Los Angeles judge, or any other
judge, had anything to say against
the wholesale violations of the CON
stitutions Of this state and nation dur
tAA5 Vic 1iSC oPCSCH IISHI Ill Cdu L euro
in 1923 and 1924. The ere" of judges
was not aroused" over the falling of
more than 600 innocent workers at
one time, the railroading to San
Quentin, the kidnappings and the hot
water "cure"-which tortured women
and children to death. The notorious
Oaks, former chief of police in Los
Angeles, got away with his brutalities
and other forms of lawlessness-with-
out protest by legal lights who are
decorating the benches in courts of
law.
Well, these boys were sent to Jail
and permitted to rot there. The po-
lice department, however, is very busy
these days protecting gamblers and
other crooks from getting in close
contact with smelling jail-birds.

state and city authorities refuse to
take any action.
The workers cannot look to any Of
the bosses parties for aid They can
expect nothing from the democratic,
republican or independent parties that
serve the interests of the bosses. Nor
can they expect anything from LaFol-
lette, who denounces the two old par
ties before the election and then goes
back to them when the elections are
over. No, the workers must organize

which will fight for the interests OF

2. Call out on strike all morgan

3. Immediate withdrawal of the

must not guarantee a cent to the

<fGet Me IN the Movies" a
Coca Satire on Hollywood

A delightful farce based on contem-
"A porary life in the movie colony in
Hollywood, California, called, "Get
Me In The Movies" is now playing
at the Earl Carroll Theatre, where
laughing audiences are nightly en-
joying this satire about the cinema
capitol.
Written by Charlton Andrews and
Phillip Dunning, the latter one of the
authors of broadway" the play is
the first serious attempt to portray
Hollywood life since Glenn Hunter
appeared several seasons ago in
Merton of the Movies" While writ
ten along the lines of broad farce,
the play in an unusually entertaining
manner manages to bring out great
deal of the things the motion picture
fan has been reading and thinking
about for many years.
The play mirrors the adventures Of
Johnny Loring, winner of a scenario
contest, who from the day he arrives
in the cinema center is constantly an
noyed by potential movie queens and
their mothers who request his help
in placing them in the movies.
In an amusing manner the various
girls tell him they are willing to "pay
the price" for fame, but none of the
offers tempt Johnny who remains
true to his sweetheart. In addition
the contract he has signed with the
motion picture corporation states that
he is not to recommend any one for
parts in any of the company's pro-
ductions.
The. part Of Johnny is superbly
played by. Sterling Holloway, remen-
bered for his fine work in the Gar
rick Gaieties" and the Grand Street
Follies." Mr. Holloway's portrayal
of the soda jerker from She5oygan,
Wis, who won the scenario prize, is
one of the finest Characterization on
Broadway today. His tall ungainly
figure, his mop of yellow hair, all add
realism to his part of country youth
bewildered by the host of motion pic
ture beauties who want to use him
as means of gaining prominence in
the battle for fame.
OF course, in the end Johnny tri-
umphs, but the complications leading
up to that make an enjoyable evening

About Officials
a. q Worker CORRESPONDENCE


Last Saturday l had lunch with
group of my friends We were dis
cussing the necessities that work
ing girl has today. In the group of
six, two were operators, one was a
saleslady and three were clerks in the
Amalgamated Bank.
One Of the operators has been out
of work for long time. She had a
chance to observe all the beautiful
and wonderful things you can buy if
YOU have the money. She turned her
head and said to the clerks in a half
serious, half-humorous way, "You are
lucky girls to work in the Amalga-
mated Bank. I suppose you are get
ting good since you yourselves are
the union"
what Union?"
The answer was sad The clerks
told us that none of them belong to
the Bookkeepers' Union. They pay no
dues. They have no union books and
if they are working overtime, they do
not get paid until three or four weeks
later.
When heard this told them had
heard talk of strike at the bank a
few weeks ago for discharging a clerk
for being active in the Boollkeepers
Union. They asked me if / knew how
it was Investigated and told me it was
thru the press. co." they said, eve
long for the time when we shall be-
long to union like yours and be pro-
tected against hiring and firing,
against reductions in wages, increase
in working hours and discharge for
union activity.
About Amalgamated.
When l heard this beautiful dream
of my friend about my union, l did
not want to disappoint her, but l told
her little bit about the wonderful
things in the Amalgamated of which
| am member
Here are some of things l told her.
On paper we have a powerful union,
but not in the shops When the union
was in the shop we had a chairman.
Today we have a collector as we'll as
business agents and organizers.
Since the Amalgamated gave up all
its principles of class struggle it has
gone far with compromises. So the
workers have lost their confidence in
their union leadership. Today the
Amalgamated is surrounded by bust
ness agents, organizers and strong
men, not for the organization but for
the machine; to keep the workers back
from constructive work.
We, the workers, knowing the Won
defful possibilities of our union, have
lost no real respect for it. Altho some
Of us Keep quiet, deep in our hearts
we feel very bad about it. If any
body dares to say anything, he or she
is condemned as Communist or a
destroyer of the organization. But
we are watching for the time when
all the workers will understand that
they have no real union now and then
they will get busy with organization
work and will make improvements in
our working conditions.
At the last convention two years
ago, the Amalgamated decided to es-
tablish a forty-hour week instead of
the forty-four. We worked hard very
hard for it, but they came to the con-
clusion that the easiest way of get
ting the forty-hour week is by bring
ing back the old sweat shop system

No Jobs.
But be warned this year if the news
papers print long articles about the
thousands of men who are wanted in
the harvest fields. Don't come west
as you can't get a job in the fields at
any price.
Last year there were 1,700 com
bines" in Oklahoma alone, which
threw 1000 harvest hands out of
work. This year there are so far
4,045 combines" which cuts out all
jobs. One northeast county alone has
600.
The above is the official statement
appearing on page Is of the May 8
issue of the Oklahoma City Times.
