ADVOCATE 1919 FOR
TOWNSHIP SHARE OF
GASOLINE TAX ROADS

About 1900 taxpayers of Isanti coun-
ty met recently at Cambridge and dis
cussed taxes. How best to cut eX-
penses was the important topic and
according to The Braham Journal the
meeting got together on this:
For the county board the following
recommendations were made: Cut out
any new construction work the COM
ing year and use SO per cent of the
road and bridge levy to pay off on the
county debt. Use county snow plows
on county roads only when absolutely
necessary. That the minimum amount
of ten per cent be required from the
townships to meet the gas tax stipula-
lions. Use greater care and economy
in maintaining roads especially dur
ing dry periods. Use efficient men to
operate the county machinery and pay
them by the day and only when nee
essary. Ask voluntary cut in sal
aries from county officials. Make no
appropriation to the Isanti County
Agricultural Society during the pres
ent depression. Make no appropria-
tion for All club work and dispense
with same for the time being. That
appropriations to any and all charit-
able organizations be dispensed with
For township and so-called local
groups: Recommend that the town
officers, overseers and day labor be
cut to two dollars per day. That the
maximum salaries of school teachers
be cut to eighty dollars per month.

ANNUAL SEAL
SALE NOW ON

performers and the director. Super
intendent L. w. Brown of Hinckley,
spoke a few words in appreciation
of the band and its director and sug-
gested that it be called the P. T. A..
band. The association voted $25 to
the director and S. for music. A
prayer was led by Mr.. Berg and the
secretary and treasurer's reports were
read after which the meeting settled
down to listen to the speakers on
tuberculosis and the Christmas seal
sale.
Association Secretary Speaks.
DR.. Meyerding said that he has
been in the tuberculosis work for 25
years and that this is the 25th annual
sale of the Christmas seals in Amer
lea. The idea of the seal was origin
ated by mail clerk in Denmark and
has since become very popular and
of much good to humanity. The doc
tor went on and said that years ago
tuberculosis was thought to be heredi-
tary, but that progress is made by
education, right living, sanitary en-
vironments, proper food and rest. The
death rate from the white plague has
been cut in half in Minnesota in the
last Is years. Formerly six died each
day from the disease whereas now
only three die each day in the state.
Going on the doctor said that the
first campaign of education was
against splitting, then came the sleep
ing porches with sunshine and fresh
air for tuberculosis patients. Being
good for them others adopted the
sleeping porch idea and now many
homes are thus equipped. A re-
search program has been carried
on continuously, and the Rockefeller
Foundation has contributed toward
tuberculosis education. Some years
ago there were in evidence many
folks with hunchbacks, hip diseases,
and running glands, caused by bovine
tuberculosis, but there is not much
of that type of tuberculosis now, said
the speaker, due to pasteurization of
milk and T. B. testing of cattle. Wis
consin cattle have been tested for
some years and there is less tuber-
culosis i'm that state compared with
other states.
More T. B. Amongst Girls.
DR.. Meyerding also said that there
was more tuberculosis amongst girls
same age because lit was stylish for
while to be slender and some of
them dieted too much or in fact
starved themselves. They were also
too thinly clad. Through dieting they
became run down and consequently
had less resistance against disease.
Thanks to the change in style it is
now more popular to be robust and
maintain natural shape, said the doc
tor, and this should be encouraged.
They must also have enough rest and
sleep. The doctor also dwelt upon
protection from others who are ILL,
warning against rooming together
with others who are not in good
health, stressing that much care
should be exercised in this respect
especially in colleges and universities.
Mr.. Bremen complimented the
Hinckley community ON its splendid
new school auditorium and also on
the interest shown in the parent
teachers work. Naturally parents
should be very interested in their own
children, said the speaker, but the
interest should also extend to the well
fare of other children for they all
effect one another either directly or
indirectly. Health is the most i'm

portant thing we can teach the child
in school and all children under
twelve years should be in bed at 8
O'Clock. There are twice as many
girls dying from tuberculosis between
the ages of Is and 10 as boys of that
age.
Our Brothers Keeper.
DR.. Earl spoke briefly on the his
tory of the double barred cross on the
Christmas seal and said that hun
dreds of years before the time of
Christ folks in India worked for
health improvement. eve are our
brothers keeper" said the doctor,
adding that we do not know when the
tuberculosis germ may hit us, and
therefore it is we'll that we do our
bit by purchasing the seals.
Campbell Christianson of Hinckley,
rendered two beautiful vocal numbers,
his deep mellow voice resounding
through the large building with its
good acoustics. A hearty applause
from the appreciative au e. C e
brought forth an encore.

HOME PRODUCT is OKAY
BUT OF WHAT VALUE is IT!

In order to boost home product,
says the Sioux Falls Argus Leader,
Arizona automobile license plates are
made of copper. For similar reasons,
Missouri proposes to use zinc. South
Dakota would like to emulate this
style but as our major metal is gold,
the plates might cost more than the
automobiles.
Since Minnesota produces about
twice as much iron ore as all the
other states put together, it is fair
to assume that our auto plates are
a home product. But even 100000
pairs of them will hardly affect the
visible supply of iron ore.

BOOTHS TAKEN
FOR D. W. BAZAAR
NOW TOTAL FIFTY
Include Jewelry Shop,
Print Plant; Clothing
$3.50 to SIS

Gains were consolidated and
final big effort planned at the mass
conference last Thursday night held
to discuss the Daily Worker F'reiheit-
Young Worker Bazaar scheduled for
october 8, 9, 10 and IL at Madison
Square Garden.
Delegates reported ten more booths
taken for the bazaar, making the
total now so. The booths will include
a jewelry workers shop, at which
watches will be repaired by expert
watchmakers and hammer and sickle
rings and other jewelry will be sold.
Another booth has been taken by
the printers league. This league has
installed a printing plant where you
can have personal cards and en-
velopes printed. The printers league
will also publish a magazine to con-
tain articles now being written by
proletarian writer's and to be sold at
the bazaar.
1t was also announced at the con-
ference that the committee has sue
ceeded in buying a liquidation stock
of clothing on such terms that 1t is
able to offer mems suits and over
coats at $3.50 to SIS. These cannot
be gotten anywhere else at less than
S25 up, and comrades who are think
ing OF buying a new suit or coat
for the winter should wait until they
see what the bazaar has to offer
them. Also, comrades, if you are
about to buy any other article of
apparel-shirtS, hosiery, underwear,
etc, just delay buying until you see
the wide selection at the bazaar, and
the low prices, which can compete
with those at any cut price store.
You will be helping the cause, and
you will be saving money.
Women delegates at the conference
pledged that they would bake cakes
for the bazaar, and recommended
that all women comrades do like
wise.
One last push is needed to put the
affair over with a bang and estab-
liSh a solid financial foundation for
the Communist press in the workers
fight against wage cuts and the
misery of the coming winter. Send
your greetings in Immediately. Send
in the money for sold tickets at once.
Get more greetings. Sell more
tickets. Only five days left.

A r. Of L. but only said in a more
bombastic way what Stetzky had
said. The workers showed how well
they understood this program by de-
manding that he be thrown off as
representing no workers. Other
Lovestonites in the audience did their
best to provoke a fight in the crowd
by heckling Ben Gold.
International F1ees.
The conference lasted for eight
hours and was broken up when the
leaders of the Joint Council of the
International Fur Workers Union
left. They refused to accede to the
demand that workers be allowed to
work in any shop without having to
pay tribute to the American Fedora
ton of Labor racketeers. The repre-
sentatives of the Industrial Union
asked that this question be put to
the delegates of the conference but
this was turned down. The fur work.
ers pledged that they would proceed
to put into effect the program pre-
scented by the Needle Trades Work
rs Industrial Union and so build one
strong union.

RATIFY TICKET
OF COMMUNIST
PARTY TONIGHT
Parade To Precede
Meet Through Harlem

NEW YORK Campaign Ra-
tification Conference in Harlem takes
place tonight, october 3rd, at Lafay-
cite Hall, 131 Seventh Ave. The con-
ference will be preceded by a parade
through the contested sections Of
Harlem to reach the exploited Negro
workers with the Campaign Program
Of the Communist Party during the
Election Struggle.
During this house to house canvas,
the Communist Party calls on all red
canvassers to expose to the workers
the fake scheme Of the so-called I'M
employed relief committee, which has
been broadcasted by Governor Roose-
welt, who is interested, only in get
ting himself on the ticket for the
presidential elections next year. The
Communist Party calls the attention
of the workers to hte fact that the
committee Of 3 whom Roosevelt APP
pointed to handle the $4,000, 900 for
road building and construction, is a
committee of reactionaries and labor
haterS of the worst type. Strauss,
the head Of r. H. Macy's is a no
torious exploiter of women workers
and young girls, whose policy Is Of
squeezing the most out of the work
ers in this department store, has
been condemned and exposed even
by the bosses charity machine. j.
Sullivan, the second member of the
Roosevelt Relief Committee, Is a
Tammany racketeer, head of the
State Federation Of Labor, with a
long record as a labor faker ready at
all times to sell out the workers in
every strike. The third member is a
banker. The workers can expect
nothing from such an outfit or any
other fake schemes of the bosses
politicians.
Tonight at Z p. m, Section has
arranged for a series of street meet
ings for the Election Campaign with
a central rally at which the truck
equipped with loud speaker, which
the District Election Campaign Com
mittee has provided, will be used for
the first time. The truck will be
used one night a week in all. Dor

NEW YORK.-About 1000 fur
rierS packed Webster Hall Thursday
night for the unity conference" Of
the Needle Trades Workers Indus
trial Union and the A. F. of L. fur
union. This conference was forced
upon the leaders Of the company
union because Of the bankruptcy of
their outfit and the increasing popu-
larity of the Industrial Union. The
conference was turned into a re-
markable demonstration for the pro-
gram of the Industrial Union.
Two programs were presented. The
one of the company union stated that
if unity is to be obtained the Indus
trial Union must be iquidated, all
furriers must apply for admission to
the A. F. of l., unon and pay NOM
inal fee. Every mention of the
American Federation of Labor was
greeted with boos and cries of deri-
sion. A number of times Ben Gold,
the chairman of the fur department
of the revolutionary union, had to
plead with the workers to allow their
enemies of the A. F. of L. to speak.
A Real Program.
In direct contrast to the program
of the International Fur Workers was
that of the Rank and File Committee
which was set up at meeting called
by the Industrial Union a few weeks
ago.
This program called for the cleo
ton OF a committee of SO workers
with an equal number Of representa-
tives from each side. That this COM
mittee Immediately begin to organ
ize strikes in the shops for unon
conditions, that every worker be al
lowed to work in any shop whether
ii is controlled by the union he be-
longs to or not; that the system OF
