!. CHEMICAL SOCIETY
TO.HONOR HUDSON
Public Health Physician viii
Receive Prize for Sugar
Research.

BY the Associated Press.
Discoveries in the field Of how the
body avails itself of the suns energy
stored in sugars again have won for
Or. Claude S. Hudson Of the Public
Health Service token Of esteem from
his colleagues in chemistry.
Twenty years of study Of the ring
structure Of sugar-only one phase Of
his many deep and highly technical re-
searches-will be rewarded tonight with
the Hillebrand prize Of the Chemical
Society of Washington.
DR.. Hudson, in 1929, won the Will
lard Gibbs gold medal of the Ameri-
can Chemical Society and in 1916 the
organizations Nichols medal for his
findings in sugar chemistry.
Only six of the SO chemically indi-
vidual sugars, with their stored-up solar
radiation, can be burned" as fuel by
the human body. DR.. Hudson is cred
tied with discovering five of these known
varieties and classifying each kind in
two or three distinct forms, because of
differences in molecular structure.
The trophy he will receive tonight is
awarded annually for the most merito-
rious contribution to chemical science
as presented in papers before the
washington society.

GRAIN LIMITATION HIT
Mussolini Says Too Many People
Starving to Consider Restrictions.

ROME, March 26 (1.-The worlds
wheat crisis comes not so much from
overproduction as from underconsump-
ton, Premier Mussolini told the inau-
gliral meeting Of the World Grain Con-
ference here today.
Therefore, he said, 'it would be rash
indeed to call for limitation Of cultiva-
ton of cereals when in the world there
are all too many people poverty stricken
and grieYouSly distressed"
Bread, he said, has somewhat been
replaced by more choice types Of food
with improved standards Of life among
the masses.

Negro. White Workers
Join Ranks in South
in Anti-War Meeting

KANSAS CITY, Aug. 13.-For the
first time in the history Of our Party
an anti-war demonstration was held
in Wichita Falls, Texas on August /.
Several hundred participated in the
demonstration and a hundred TOOK
part in the marching. In the Jim
Crow South where the Negro work
ers are kept segregated we succeeded
for the first time in having a mixed
crowd, whites and Negroes. The
ScottSboro issue was very conspicu-
ously displayed and banners such as
Free the Scottsboro Boys" Down
with Discrimination Against Negroes"
ETC., were carried. The chief of police
unsuccessfully tried to stop the pa
rade, for the spirit and resistance
Of the workers was too great. Hun
dreds of workers, practically the
whole town followed on the sidewalks
trying to get glimpse Of the signs
The Party prestige has been raised
tremendously and the demonstration
is the talk of the whole town.
The leader of the demonstration,
Comrade Gillentine, was called to the
Grand Jury and tried. Since no
charge could be put against him,
he was let loose. This was a ire
mendous achievement for the Party
and the Unemployed Council.

SAN FRANCISCO CLUB IN TROUBLE

We quote below minutes of last
meeting OF Yonkers, N 7, Daily
Worker Club. The Yonkers Club
made an excellent move when it de-
oided to order so copies of the Daily
Worker every Saturday for distri-
button among various news stands
in District. AS suggested, addresses
of all news stands where copies of
the Daily can be procured will be
published in the Daily Worker every
Saturday hereafter. What about a
committee on Workers Correspond
ence, comrades, and a little divertise-
ment after meeting? All members of
ries, etc, should be urged to write
about conditions, for publication in
the Daily. This is an extremely i'm
portant function of the Daily Work
er Club and should be exercised to
the utmost capacity. Entertainment
will sort of add the right touch be-
fore adjournment. Minutes follow:
Report on last Daily Worker
Club meeting. Committee that was
appointed to visit news stands re-
ported they secured four new
stands which carry about IA cop
les daily. 1t was reported that the
sum of $1.36 was collected for the
Daily Worker nj the Scottsboro
and Paterson affair.
IL was decided TO hold next out
Ing Aug. 80. Comrades were APP
pointed as delegates to the Miners
Relief Committee. After lengthy
discussion IL was moved and see
onded that the club order so copies
of the Daily Worker every Satur-
day and distribute them in Dis
tricts where there is q news stand.
Also that the Club get the Daily
Worker 10 put in notice on the
day that DaIlies are sent giving
the address of all newsstands in
YOnkers. Meeting adjourned Mt
10 PM"
What about discussion Of contents
of the Daily Worker? Workers
should be given the floor as much
as possible to say what they think
about the Daily and reports should
be sent to Editorial Dept. This is
an important point!

country can further cut wages, as

unemployment on the backs Of the
working class, was worked out in a
resolution passed by the Executive
Council of the American Federation

of this meeting has been to aid the
bosses strengthen their attack against
the harrassed working class and to
safeguard the profits of the exploit

The present resolution on "unem-

Many men died on the Job of I'M
REIMBURSEMENT and heat, as well as
lack Of water. The strikers are de-
manding withdrawal Of the wage-cut
and supplies Of decent drinking
water.
The construction camp here Is a
miserable place, dirty, unsanitary,
giving the appearance of acute want,
Now the men who suffered for
months until they got job are
faced with the entire government
trying to put over a wage-cut.
The local authorities at Las Vegas,
New, declared that when the strik-
erS' funds ran out they would be
faced with starvation and that the
city authorities will be unable to
feed the men and their families.
This is what Hoover is waiting for
so that he can lash the men back
to work at the cut wages with the
whip of starvation.
If this fails the sheriff here has
declared he has been promised troops
to smash down the resistance Of the
strikers and get them to agree to
wage-cuts.

have not said one word against the
