Starye While Jobless; Bosses Would Starve
Them While Working
(By a Worker Correspondent

PHILADELPHIA, Pa.-Interest-
ing news not featured in the local
press, but placed in obscure corners
of some of these sheets, comes from
the central part Of the feudal barony
of Mellon, Grundy and company.
1t appears that the county au-
thorities of Center County, at Belle
fonte, Pa, are about to start a
"plan for unemployment relief"
One million dollars is to be spent
to build new roads in this thinly
populated, mountainous section of
the state. Through the building of
these roads all unemployed workers
will be taken care of, say the au-
thorities. They will pay, they say,
the truly regal sums OF 20 and %

RESULT OF STARVING AND

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, April 23.-Un-
employment and consequent under
nourishment is largely responsible
for the fact that in 1929 the tuber-
culosis death rate among st. Louis
Negroes reached it's highest peak in
10 years, charities and bourgeois
leagues admit in annual reports.
Lack of proper food, bad housing
conditions and the strain of trying
to exist without a job, contribute to
an alarming mortality rate among
Negroes. A sharp increase in Negro
deaths from heart disease and pneu-
monia is due to the nerve strain of
poverty, ill-fed bodies and lowered
powers of resistance to disease.
