Captured y. S. Flag at
Lenin Memorial Meetimq

Mute but deadly evidence of Wall
Streets bloody aggression against
the Latin American working class
by the use of "deyil dogs" may be
placed on display in Madison Square
Garden the evening of January 10
in connection with the great Lenin
memorial meeting. A shell-torn
American flag captured by General
Sandino's revolutionary troops from
United States marines and now in
the hands Of Tava Gustavomachavo,
representative of Nicaragua's insur-
gent leader in Mexico City, may be
shipped to New York in time for
the mass demonstration against the
growing war danger.
The memorial arrangements COM
mittee, fully cognizant of Nicara-
gua's political and economic en-
slavement by Wall Street has taken
steps to bring the battered colors to
New York so that American work
ers may view the captured symbol
of American imperialism.
The letter to Tava Gustavomacho
follows:
January 3, 1929.
Tava Gustavomachavo,
Representative Of Nicaragua Work
ing Class Government,
Mexico City, Mexico.
Dear Comrade:
AS you know the revolutionary
workers of Greater New York and
other American cities are arrang-
ing protest demonstrations in con.
nection with the fourth anniversary
of the death of Nicolai Lenin
against the growing war danger
The meeting in New York will be
held on January 10.
Our aim is to arouse the millions
of working people of our country to
the full significance of Americas
intervention in the domestic affairs
Of other nations in Wall Streets
mad desire to make the whole of
Latin America a mere hinterland of
the United States. You will agree
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1929-01-04

that the ruthless maneuvers of the
Washington government for possess
sion of world markets is steadily
leading to situation which will
undoubtedly eventuate in a new war.
To make our protest against the
growing war danger more effective
and conclusive, we ask you to send
US the battered American flag in
your possession which gives mute
evidence to the wholesale slaughter
of your people by United States
marines, and the courage of your
troops under the brave hero, San
dino.

site of the flea develops into a poul-
try parasite.
Many similar examples are known,
and others are suspected. The grass
hopper, for instance, has recently
been shown to transmit at least one
important parasite of domestic poul-
try.
Sanitation and cleanliness which
prevents such insects from having &C
cess to the droppings may thus break
cycle through which infestation
reaches the flock. The insects in
themselves may not be harmful to
poultry, but if they have had an OPP
portunity to feed on contaminated
droppings they may be the means of
spreading these particular parasites.

Herd Improvement Association
The Friendsville Herd Improvement
Association, formed under the direc-
ton of the Friendsville Chapter of the
Future Farmers of America, has just
completed it's second month of active
service.
With a larger enrolment of boys
and more cows tested during the
month of May than in April, the men,
bers feel confident that the association
will prove helpful in developing the
dairy industry in the Friendsville
community.
Some of the purposes which men,
bers are hoping to accomplish through
the work of this association are to
eliminate the boarder cows by know
ing what each cow produces; improve
the herd through better feeding and
better breeding; increase the efficiency
of production by knowing the cost of
production.
Realizing that the average COW in
Garrett county produces less than
5000 pounds of milk as compared with
$3.50 in the State, 1927 in the United
States, and 1885 pounds in the Meth
erlands (the country in which cow

testing associations originated) it is
the sincere wish of the association
that every boy in the community will
take advantage of opportunities which
it offers.
The ten highest cows in the associ-
alton during the month of May pro-
duced from 54.5 pounds of butterfat
to 23.5 pounds. The ten cows are
owned by Glenn Fike, Ernest Hauser,
Wade Umbel and Karol Rush.

Sanitation in Poultry Yard Performs
Double Function

Care exercised in keeping poultry
yards clean and in sanitary condi-
tions has double function in keeping
the flock clear of parasites that I'M
dermine the health and sap the vigor
of the birds. The injury by mites,
lice, feas, and other parasitic orga-
nisms is sometimes obvious, but it
also happens that some insects and
other small creatures are carriers or
intermediate hosts of some of the in
ternal parasites of poultry.
For example, according to spec
ialists in the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture, one variety of
round worm must develop for one
stage of it's life outside the poultry
it affects. The roundworm lays it's
eggs within the chicken and they are
eliminated in the droppings. They
will not mature if picked up by a
fowl. They do mature if water flea
picks up the eggs. Then if hen
takes in the water flea with her

necessary to eradicate it from a local

valley people were shocked earlier this week TO
read press dispatches telling Of a plane crash in
Mexico in which two Valley men, R. c. Lowry. and
John Carmichael, were killed.
These men were well known in the Valley, and
Their death was untimely and greatly to be regretted.
Il brings the possibilities Of air tragedies closer to
rs. because we know them.
But is afr travel unsafe, when compared to other
modes Of travel?
IL Is difficult to glance over a Valley newspaper
without reading about an automobile accident in the
valley. There are thousands Of them over the ma
ton, which are written about locally, and never told
Of in the press If the nation.
Many Of these accidents are fatal. Only recently
N young girl was killed in Hidalgo county, and another
seriously injured when their car was side-swiped and
overturned on the highway.
St1l more recently several cars crashed near San
Benito, and the occupants were seriously injured, but
recovered.
These happen daily. and deaths are ell too fire.
uuent. UnquestionabIy some further and more dras-
tic steps should be taken In the interest Of greater
safety on the highways.
But these accidents have happened over so long a
period Of time, and with such frequency that they
are hardly noticed. unless a prominent person is hurt.
The air crash is q different story. It is big news. no
matter whether the passengers are only slightly hurt.
And IL makes a much greater impression. and the
impression tends to create fear Of flying.
With modern ships, and good pilots, flying Is with
out doubt one Of the safest methods OF Transports
ton.
Trains crash and kin dozens. Ships sink. and when
they sink It makes no difference to the passengers
what sort of a landing they make. Planes crash, and
people become apprehensive of all flying. But they
still feel safe by other methods Of transportation.
1t Is the novelty Of the thing that scares them
