IN iNltS NbtftNk
WASHINGTON. Feb. s.-With
bids of twenty-five Indiana cities
before it, the federal hospital board
today was faced with the problem
of alloting the 100000 veterans
hospital proposed for Indiana.
Representatives of each OF the
cities appeared before the board Fri
day to voice their claims to the hos
pital. The board will make no de-
cision until its engineers have re-
ported on the locations.
One of the strongest bids for the
hospital was presented by Indian
apoliS, represented by Mayor Reg
inald H. Sullivan and Representa-
tive Louis Ludlow, Seventh Indiana
congressional district.
They pointed out advantages OF
the capital city's size, central loca-
ton, transportation facilities and
stressed its medical center, medical
advice from which would be avail
able to the veterans.
The hospital, if located in Indian
annapolis. would become part of the
medical center or would be situated
near the group of city and state
hospitals, Mayor Sullivan said.
Other places asking the hospital
included Bloomington, Kokomo,
Martinsville, Washington, Jasonville,
Noblesville, Frankfort, Crawfords-
Vile, Bass Lake, Anderson, Stephen
county, Muncie, Greencastle, Terre
Haute, LoganSport, Delphi and sew
eral northern Indiana towns.

MINOT, N. D.-Unemployment is
not confined to the large cities
merely. This little prairie city of a
population of $4,000 has now TOO
unemployed workers, and the
"spring BOOM is not yet here. Only
last week the International Harves-
ter Company laid off some men
which indicates that farm machinery
is not moving very fast.
Eighty-five families are getting
some scanty support from the city
authorities. This is the worst year
we have gone through here, and the
workers tell one another that some
thing must be done about it. The
Russian solution looks good to them.
Workers who are approached,
readily listen to the revolutionary
solution Of their problems. The
Daily Worker and the United Farm
er are being distributed here and a
meeting will be held soon to get a
Communist unit started in Minot.

DH u w OThtT tOTTGSpOWuSNtJ
NEW YORK CITY.-An appeal
for membership by the Union Label
clubs was read at one Of our union
meetings of local s of the United
Hatters of North America. After
it was read, our president also ap-
pealed to US to join and told US of
the Importance of those clubs and
how cheap the dues are. And as
an added attraction he said they
have fine elbow outs very often.
When you listen to those appeals
you think those people are almost
serious in believing and trying to
make us believe too that the union
label will remedy all our sufferings.
1t Sticks-That's All.
But what the hell good is the
union label anyway? We have a
union label in our industry and we
stick one in every hat and it sticks
that's all. 1t does not show that
conditions in the union shops are in
any way better than in open shops.
The truth is, they are just as rotten.
Of course, the bosses do make
some use of it for themselves to ad-
vertise their hats in working class
neighborhoods. They try to cover
up with it the inhuman conditions
existing in these so-called union
shops.
Labels? --Blah.
We may have union labels sixty
six times in our industry and in any
other industry. Do you think it will
better our conditions? Blsh. There
is only one way to better our con-
ditions. This is to fight for it
militant struggle.
The leadership Of our union who
follow the big takers who are in
the leadership Of the A. F. of l..
are against any struggle by the
workers against the bosses. and do
their best to hinder any militancy
shown by the workers and to create
illusions in the minds of the work
ers that there are other ways to
improve our conditions. The Trade
Union Unity League, under the
leadership of the Communist Party
does fight to better the conditions
of the workers.

the others, the main boss in looking
over the pay-rolls gets nervous, and
the result is a cut in wages. Chinese
girls accept the cuts meekly, thus
scabbing on other workers.
Race Discrimination.
Outside of Chinatown it is hard
for Chinese girls to get work. Race
discrimination is very bad here. The
bosses say they would gladly hire
these girls, bu5 are afraid the white
girls will not work with them. This
is to the advantage of the bosses
snd therefore the white girls are
taught to hate these girls of the
yellow race. Therefore the bosses
offer these girls work to take
home, paying them even less than
the rate in the shops.
Under such conditions the girls
work in the state boasting of differ
ent labor protective laws, among
them a minimum wage law of SIG
per Vice..
The A. F. of L. union Rad no
time or desire to organize them.
The Chinese girls will only be able
to better their conditions by joining
with their white fellow workers in
the militant Needle Trades Workers
Industrial Union under the leader
ship of the Trade Union Unity
League and together demanding
shorter hour and higher wages.
