Her Pay Cut, Steno
Ends Life By Gas

NEW YORK.-ThouSands of work
ers have committed suicide, faced
with starvation, through unemploy-
ment. Now we have Elsie Jordan,
25-year-old stenographer, who ended
her life Wednesday BY gas in her
room at 239 West 10th ST., because
she had her wages cut.
Finding life a struggle against
starvation even while at work, when
her flimsy pay envelope was chopped
still further, Elsie Jordan killed her
self.
The bosses kill off thousands, not
only through unemployment but with
their wage-cuts. by which they con-
denim the workers to slow starva-
ton.

have been hired at low wages. The
same practice was followed in the
Great Lakes Airships Corp. shops in
Cleveland where the ships that col
lapsed in San Diego were built. Boys
are employed in these shops at 20
cents an hour by the patriotic prof.
teers who work on these government
contracts.
For the past several months, the
Goodyear Co. has been imposing one
wage cut upon another. When the
last wage cut was announced, the
workers were on the point of open
rebellion and openly discussed plans
for a strike. Although Kassay, who
was regarded as an especially skilled
worker and who enjoyed considerable
influence and the regard of the other
workers in the shop, did not get his
wages cut, he was suspected as a
leader of the strike preparations.
Principal Motives for the Frame-Up.
The Goodyear Co. had to have a
good excuse for delaying the formal
inspection by about two months. Time
was needed in which to patch up the
defective parts. Time was needed in
order that the company could save
paying heavy penalty for being be-
hind in it's contract. Some of the
naval inspectors were cooperating
with the company in covering up. de-
fective parts. 1t is known that the
company pulled wires to secure ap-
proval Of parts that had been pre-
viously condemned by naval in
spector named Hall. CThis refers to
q previous ship which has now been
launched) Furthermore, the work.
ers in the plant had to be terror
lied into submission to wage cuts.
BY means Of the Kassay frame-up,
the Goodyear Co. expects to escape
paying the penalty for defective work
and failure to meet it's contractulal
obligations. The bosses of Ohio seek
to justify the Criminal Syndicalist
Law, which the legislature just re-
fused to repeal. The d. Of J. agents
are able to boast of clever piece
of detective work and prove to the
gullible that such spy agency is
imperatively needed to preserve them
against "red conspirators." For Ham
Fish, the frame-up is a god-send. 1t
comes Just in time to prove that his
discredited proposals for fascist ter
ror against all militant workers, are
essential for the preservation of the
rule of the multi millionaires.
The Frame-Up Experts AT Work.
The arrest of Paul Kassay took
place suddenly. The first announce
ment to the press came after five
hour grilling in the inquisitional
chambers Of the local police head
quarters. In screaming headlines, the
prostitute press declared that Com

A LITTLE SATURDAY TALK

Two days ago I wrote about "the ways of water" but there was not enough space to tell you many things I had in mind.
 You may remember that I spoke about water gathering salt and lime while passing over rocks under the soil What we call "soft" water is water which contains only a very small amount of hard substance.
 Rain water is very soft when caught before it flows through the is fairly soft.
 Some spring water is nearly as soft as lake water; but springs are not all alike. Some of them contain very "hard" water. Deep wells contain extremely hard water. Look inside kettle used q long time for boiling water. Around the inner lining you see 8 coating. This coating is composed of hard parts of water left behind when hard water has boiled into steam.
 The hardest water of all is salt water found in oceans, seas and cer- tain lakes. About one-fourth of the water in the Dead sea is made up of salt
 Most things become smaller when they freeze: but water does not fol- low this rule. Water fills more space when it turns into ice. Ice floats on water because it is lighter than the water.
 If milk freezes in a bottle, the bottle may break; but more likely the frozen milk will push the stop per upward, and you will seem to have more milk than the milkman left.
 Water freezing in pipes may break the pipes. There is great force from the freezing water. The ice wants to find a home somewhere, and it does
