Deeds to Czeve-
land CHALLENGE

Replying to the Cleveland Dis
trict's acceptance of their challenge
in the drive for 10000 new readers
for the Daily Worker by June 1,
the Philadelphia campaign commit
tee writes:
The Cleveland District accuses us
of challenging them in words, but
that they will reply in revolutions
airy deeds. We say to the comrades
in District 6 cleveland and Ohio
state) that our revolutionary chal-
lenge to them was written in words,
but was followed up Immediately,
in true Bolshevik style, by deeds.
What achievements has the Cleve-
land District to report? To now
these comrades only report what
they are going to do. Here is what
we have already accomplished:
We have already increased our
district bundle order from 100 a
day to 400 day.
We have already secured three
unemployed workers to sell the
Daily Worker at factory gates,
meetings and to deliver them from
house to house.
We have already scheduled three
affairs to raise funds for the Daily
Worker, one on April &c Cd. w.
and Liberator dance), another on
May 8 Ga big press balD, and one
on May Is Ga movie showing).
We have already decided to dis
tribute $4,000 Daily Workers be-
fore May 1, in order to help US
mobilize masses of workers for May
1. We will secure $3.50 in greet
ings for the Daily Worker for this
$4,000 issue.
We have already held our Daily
Worker representatives and unit
functionaries meeting to discuss the
campaign, which was followed at
once by discussion in unit meetings.
Our unit discussions took place two
weeks ago. At our Philadelphia
membership meeting a week ago a
very good discussion on the cam
paign was had.
We have already established four
carrier routes, two of 80 customers
each and two of % customers each.
In the respective working-class
neighborhoods we expect to raise
these routes to minimum of 100
customers each at an early date.
We have already established reg
ular sales of the Daily Worker in
front of four factories: The Penn
Sugar Refining, 1900 workers;
Budd's Auto Body, 1900 workers;
Collins and Aickman's Textile Mill,
400 workers; General Electric, 5000
workers. Our sales are not yet
large at these factories, but watch
them grow.
We have not forgotten our water
front. We sell there every day to
the sailors and longshoremen.
Listen, you District 6 comrades.
We have no objection to your boast
ing, but it is better to boast about
accomplishments. You will have to
speed up even now to catch up with
Philadelphia.

The agreement just concluded be-
tween the Soviet Oil Trust and the
American Standard Oil Trust means
a weakening of the position Of
Americas rival, the Royal Dutch
Shell Co., Deterding's concern. De-
terding's interview with Tardieu is
considered by many to have been a
desperate attempt to answer the
latest move of the Soviet Oil Trust
by persuading the French govern
ment to provoke diplomatic breach
with the Soviet Union. Whether
the French bourgeois will be pre-
pared to pull Deterding's chestnuts
out of the fire and for what con-
sideration, remains to be seen. In
the meantime the official organ of
the Communist Party, PHumanite,
appeals to the workers to be on
the watch and to be prepared for
action at any moment against a
new attack on the Soviet Union.

Grows Greater AS the
Speedup Is Increased
(Bu a Worker Correspondentl

ELIZABETH, N. 1.-THE lot of
the workers of the Simmons Bed
plant at Bayway, Elizabeth, N. j.,
has been worsened. The bosses are
trying their utmost to squeeze
more profits out Of the toll Of the
workers.
The workers are being speeded
up more intensely. In the deep
sleep department, for instance, new
machines have been installed re-
Gently and prices cut from 40 to so
per cent. The men who refused
to accept the wage-cut were fired.
New girls were hired instead at
rs cents per hour.
The tufters, finishers, droll-edge
operators, packers and all the other
departments got several heavy cuts
of their already low prices lately.
500 a Week.
Piece rates are so darn low that
even though the workers work
harder than human strength al
lows to nine hours and more a day
the average pay does not exceed
500 a week.
Pay Shortages.
Now they have another, quite
original problem, and that is: Pay
shortages. Every week a number
of workers are short in their pay
as much as Sd to SIS, and almost
nobody ever gets it back either, for
the workers get no duplicates of
tickets or receipts for work done,
and their word is not good enough
for the bosses.
Sanitary conditions ar bad. There
is no soap nor towels in the wash
rooms; no proper ventilation, espe-
cially in the felt-rolling department,
where the men inhale felt dust con-
tinuously or are forced to wear gas
masks, trying to save their lungs.
There is no smoking-room. We
are not permitted even to chew to-
bacco to counteract the effect of
the dust, under the threat of dis
charge.
Workers Worn to Skeletons.
Most of the workers are worn out
and look like skeletons giving their
strength and life to make piles of
profits for the bosses--parasites. In
return they get speed-ups, starva-
ton wages, good deal of which
goes to doctors, because of dis
eases they get working under such
terrible conditions. And, at the
end, the bosses have no more use
for them and throw them out into
the street.
The bosses can suck the blood of
us workers because we are not Or
ganized in a solid unit. We work.
ers can and shall better our condi-
tons by uniting our forces, put up
our demands and fight for them.
Join the T. U. U. L"
I think that the Trade Union
Unity League is fighting our bat
tie and every worker ought to sup
port its program and join it. l be-
lieve that if we will organize under
the leadership of the Trade Union
Unity League and the Communist
Party we will be able to win higher
prices and better conditions.
1t is up to the workers either to
bow their heads and let the bosses
treat they as they please, or else
to unite and like real men and real
workers, under the guidance Of the
Trade Union Unity League and the
Communist Party, defend their
right to a decent living. The work
ers will choose the latter and strike
and come out in masses on May l.

Clothes Influence
Personal Efficiency

"Being well dressed is a part OF
the balance between happiness,
personal ability, and efficiency
both physical and mental" de-
clares Helen K. Robson of the De-
partment of Home Economics, of
the State College of Washington.
"Self-confidence born Of that sense
of clothes fitness has accomplish
ed much in many difficult situa-
tons. - s. 49,
s'Clothes can make us feel very
contented and happy or they can
produce just the reverse feelings in
us. It is this idea Of well-being,
happiness, contentment and COM
fort that underlies the whole study
of the psychology Of clothing" says
Miss Robson. "When a person is
contented or happy, he expends
more energy, has more initiative
and is therefore more efficient than
when he is unhappy, sick or wor-
rying about something. Personal
comfort is needed to get high-grade
efficiency in the long run.
sThe discomforts of clothes are
many and of practical Importance
as far as constructive mental effic-
iency goes. Just picture yourself
and your state of mind" suggests
Miss Robson, Sin one or more of
the following situations. Belt too
tight-arm holes too small coat
sleeves too short, coat collar has a
tendency to scratch shoes too
tight, or hundred other things
that may happen. Our reactions
caused by our clothes are inter-
esting, individual, and very con-
vincing.
Children, as well as their elders,
may he affected by their clothes.
Many children are very sensitive to
their appearance, and they should
be allowed to have a voice in the
choice of their garments. "Just pic
ture," says Miss Robson, s'the
mental anguish of q boy who has
to wear his mothers shoes to
school, or a girl who must wear a
hat that makes her look absolute
ly freaish' as she says. Maybe
we are too slow to appreciate the
influence as well as the Importance
of the clothing allowance in a fam
lily.

sufficient for any cabbage. Long
