From linn Reid

On, -its~fifh anmiversary let as
sag to
The English voice of the fighting
proletarians,
The cultivator of healthy, human
istic hate of oppression,
The mobilizer of struggling st1ik-
ers against capitalist cupidity,
The organizer of the vanguard of
the American section of the Red
Army,
The torch bearer of the coming
Communist aoorld: Long live the
Daily Worker!
May an anniversary number of
the near future carry the mamifes-

PRESS INFLUENTIAL

workers in revolutionary theology,
giving them working class stories
and lighter features of great inter-
est. Take up a Sunday edition of
the newspaper and you will see a
real center for proletarian interest.
Besides the current struggle of the
workers there are poems, book re-
views, scientific articles, stories, ar
ticles, pictures, dramatic reviews
all written by ard for revolutionary
workers.
The "Drapeau Rouge" (Red Flag,
carries the revolutionary incentive
to the Belgium workers. Not as
large as either the French or Ger
man Communist papers, it has con-
siderable influence in Belgium.
Workers Life" the voice of the
English revolutionary workers, car
ries the Hammer and Sickle on its
front page, and repeats the slogan
Workers of all Countries Unite!
1t is engaged in an ever energetic
campaign against the reformist
Trade Union Congress and the Labor
Party of Macdonald and his ilk. 1t
is not daily, as the ones mentioned
ebove are, but can only publish
once week due to the continual
campaign of the imperialists and
the reformists against the Commun-
lists.
Fights Brutal Empire
Here we see, brought down to di-
rect and hitting terms, the struggle
of the workers in England shoulder
to shoulder with the workers and
peasants of the British colonies and
semi-colonies against one Of the
most brutal inperialisms in the
world. The campaign for the organ
ization of the unemployed and
against the anti-Soviet aggression
of the British government are the
chief activities today. The miners,
perhaps the most exploited group
today in England, find whole page
for THEN expression in every issue
OF the workers Life" Just now
the organization of the National I'm
employed March on London occu-
pies much space.
We're Not Isolated
In addition il would be well to
mention the Sunday Worker" the
voice of the British Minority Move
ment, which has very large cir
culation and which is succeeding in
rallying more and more workers to
the ranks of the revolutionary fight
ers.

Parliament Hats In
Fight Over Tomato

SYDNEY (By Mail).-The Aus
tralian parliament and press have
split over the question of whether
a tomato is fruit or vegetable. Sci
entists and botanists have been con-
suited to no purpose.
Legislation of national Importance
has been delayed. The difficulty
arose when it YVES discovered the
tariff schedules called tomatoes in
pulp form vegetables but charged
fruit rates when they were imported
in dry concentrated form.

.tlmbeylalists

The Far East! How many pic
lures of romance and mystery are
woven in the fancy of American
workers around China, Japan, Java?
But to the workers of the Far East,
there is no romance, and little mys-
terry except that of how they are
going to issue and circulate their
papers without being caught, tor
tured and killed. Nevertheless they
are issued and circulated, though
the lives of many brave men and
women have paid in blood for the
awakening of their fellow workers.
In fact and without doubt, more
workers blood than printers ink
has been used in rallying the masses
against capitalist-imperialism. The
struggle can only end one way-in
victory.
In May, 1927, the trade unions of
the Pacific, meeting at Hankow,
China, organized the Pan-Pacific
Trade Union Secretariat. 1t has met
the bitterest opposition from both
the native capitalists and the ruth
less imperialists. Under the nearly
insuperable obstacles it has none
the less issued monthly reviews for
the guidance of it's sections. The
"Pan-Pacific Worker" is published
in Australia, and the "Far-E Eastern
Review" in China. The Philippine
section is beginning a paper, the
first real labor paper in that coun-
try. AS the 'PPTUS News Service"
information comes to America, Earl
Browder, an American, is the gem
eral secretary.

Labor Of Latin
America Unites

The intrigues of United States i'm
perialism in the Bolivia-P Paraguay
war, exposed only in the Daily
Worker, illustrates the importance
and imperative need of the alliance
between North and South American
workers. Even more so does the
strike of Colombian plantation work
ers, and above all the imperialist
war on the SANDING army of liberia
ton in Nicaragua. In the United
States, workers who are exploited
to furnish imperialists with capital
to exploit and Cypress Latin Amer
lean workers and peasants, have a
duty to organize militant trade
unions to make joint fight with
their comrades of the South. Like
wise, those who wish to be known
as revolutionary fighters, have
place in the Workers (Communist)
Party which leads the struggle on
the imperialist front in cooperation
with Communists of Latin America.
Of primary Importance now, is
the organization of Latin American
trade unions in a confederation,
which will be formed at conference
at Montevideo next May. A commit
tee is now publishing "The Latin
American Worker. " No reliance can
be placed upon the Latin American
capitalists, though they occasionally
express resistance to United States
imperialism. But the workers of
the United States, allied with the
organized workers and peasants of
Latin America, can and will defeat
imperialism and conquer power for
the workers.

PIECES OF PEACE.

When Brigadier General Charlie
Hughes, of the Standard Oil army,
was sitting in the Pan-American
"Conciliation" Conference at Wash
ington, bossing the Bolivian troops
in the war on Paraguay, our COR
respondents memory went back to
August, 1926, when 5000 delegates
from churches and peace. societies
met at Bierville, France, under aus
pices of the League of Nations,
which unanswered the gathering so
that questions of Syria, Morocco,
Arabia and China, did not "come
up" and a resolution of Asiatics
condemning colonization "got lost"
and was never even debated. The
Daily Workers funny bone was
struck by the incident, and emitted
the following sparks:
If you plan to kill your neighbor
and desire an aliJi:

ANGLES OF
THE SOCIAL
STRUCTURE
GOD AND PROSPERITY.

A religious outfit in Kansas City
sends out go-getter letters with a
little savings bank, and general
instructions" on how to save, part
of which says:
"The one thing you cannot df-
ford to do is to think poor thots.
Eliminate from your mind all
thot of lack; don't see 1t or think
1t or talk it; cultivate the faith
attitude. Look upon all the mon
ey you handle as q symbol of

our Father has made all things.
"The Prosperity Statement-aU

Statisticians Prove
Pleasant But Obscure

WASHINGTON (By Mail) The
National Industrial Conference Board
is sly bunch of boys. In it's re-
port for the past year, it says the
outstanding phenomenon in the la
Dor situation is "the marked stabil-
ity of wage rates and earnings,
which since 1928 have fluctuated
less than 5 per cent and during the
current year have shown a slightly
inclining trend"
Which is all very well, but which
way they have been "inclining" the
last year would be interesting, but
they don't tell us. Also, the boosted
Stability" surely means that wages
haven't gone up; so we'll take for
granted that the ''inclining" means
that they have been going down.

Illinois Mine Takers
Sell Out to the Boss

SPRINGFIELD, III. (By MaiD. -
The Fishwick-Lewis company union
outfit has gone the whole hog in
class collaboration. Jointly with the
mine owners, these takers have set
up committee to "study conditions"
created by coal loading and convey
ing machinery.
This means in plain English that
the takers are working with the
owners to speed up production and
put still more miners out of work.

CHILDREN

Many children early in life develop
a neurOtic temperament. The child
who is born with q thin face and q
tight chest will always be Of q nervous,
bilious temperament unless the par
ents recognize this tendency and give
the proper care to the child's physical,
mental and emotional development.
The round faced. full chested child
has naturally q good digestion and Is
inclined to be phlegmatic and slug
gish, but seldom becomes nervous. He
may be subject to rheumatism later
in life, but the sensitive child must
be trained carefully to avoid neuraS-
thenia and such disorders as chorea
or st. Vitus' dance. This trouble COM
monty appears between the ages Of S
! and rs. and is more frequent with
boys than with girls. It Is character
lied by jerky movements Of the arms,
hands. legs and feet, and involuntary
twitchings of the muscles Of the face.
neck and chest.
The seat of this disease is In the
brain and spinal cord. but M Of the
causes lies in a systematic toxemia
which locates In those parts. The
nervous child who is fed on bad food
combinations and given an excess of
starchy foods will build up a morbid
toxicosiS which creates an irritation Of
the large nerve centers.
Such irritation is made worse and
literally multiplied by wrong mental
training. II the parents cater to every
desire and whim Of the child they
are definitely educating the child to
get what he wants by a show of tenn
per or nerves. The whining child is
one who has learned his tricks from
the mother who ~ignorantly gives him
what he wants to stop the coaxing.
Too frequently mothers set their
children very poor examples by lack
Of self-control. Mothers who neglect
their responsibilities In their house,
hold duties must expect their children
to learn to dodge their music lessons
by complaining Of being tired or hav-
ing a headache.
If a real case of chorea or nervous
breakdown has started. the child must,
of course, be kept quiet for q. few days.
Rest in bed and fasting from all food
will quickly restore him to the normal.
Frequent enemas also cleanse the
colon of any toxic accumulations and
have a good moral as well as q good
physical effect.
/ have never seen q case Of st.
Vitus' dance which would not respond
to this regimen in q very short time.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Wrinkled Skin

~@e
Question.-Mrs. B. H. asks: Can
you tell me how to keep the flesh
firm? Reducing is easy Il have fol-
lowed your instructions and reduced
40 pounds In a little over four
months), but it doesn't do much good
unless q somehow shrink the
skin. I do daily exercises and take
cold showers"
.Answer.-Thc skin does not shrink
or reduce as rapidly as the fat under
1t. but ! believe that this condition
will be corrected in the course OF time
II you will continue to take the daily
exercises and cold showers. I am mail
ing you an article on wrinkles which
will give YOU many helpful sugges-
tons.
Weak Ligamcnts
Question.-R. F. writes: Il am 16
years old and am troubled with weak
ligaments. / have a knee which fire.
quently slips out of joint, and I have
this trouble with my elbows likewise.
What, il anything. al be done to cor
rect this condition? Would any spc-
cial diet help these weak joints?
Answer.-Thcre is no special dict
to correct weak joints. The best
method Of overcoming this condition
Is to take exercises so that you can
strengthen the muscles. Not much can
be done to strengthen ligamentS ex-
cept to strengthen the neighbOring
muscles and improve the circulation
around the joints. You must be careful
not to take sudden exercises. and
avoid displacing, as every displace-
ment weakens the ligaments still
more.
Breathing Dust
Question.-K. II. w. writes: Il am
by trade a driller, at present doing
concrete work. This is naturally q very
dusty job, and this fine concrete dust
envelopS me when at work. Is there
any danger Of this dust getting into
the lungs? II I keep this work up for
q long time will it have any effect on
my health?"
Answer.-If you breathe too large a
quantity Of rock dust it could lead to
q coating of the lungs which is
termed ~'silicosis," but usually much
dust must be breathed before this &C.
ours. Various occupations where dust
must be breathed may lead to a
fibrosis Of the lungs. Those who abb
sorb too much silica or stone dust
may be incapacitated in from two to
eight years. Coal miners or dwellers
In cities where there is dust and
SCOT may gradually have the lungs
carb0nized. The first symptoms are
those Of coughing and failing health.
and II this begins to occur 1t would
be well for you to change your occu-
patton. Much Of the dust will gradu-
ally be eliminated through expectora-
ton.
