Daily Worker Editor:
Mayor Mackey said at a banquet
given by the Women Clubs that Com
munism will be kept away from our
city If we can raise sufficient money
to feed the hungry. Communist dem
onstrations will no longer take place
around city hall when hunger has
been exiled from the city. There
would not be these hunger marches
upon city hall by the reds if it were
not so hard to keep the hungry ra-
tionaL 1t is our duty to feed and
take care Of them, and then we will
have no fear Of Communism in this
city the mayor said.
He sees that the unemployed are
getting wise and beginning to see how
they will get relief and that is by
demonstrating by the thousands. The)
last few months proved that and SO
Mackey thinks it wise to help the
hungry. But he does not propose to
tax the millionaires. No, that would
be against the law, the law of the
bosses, SO he appeals to the gener-
osity OF the people to give. This is
q sure way Of making the workers
still working give most, or they lose
their jobs. The bosses are determined
to make the workers pay for this
crisis.-P. B.

is issuing ten 25-cent meal tickets
to the workers at the rate of one
book every three weeks.
The capitalist newspapers are feed
ing the usual line of prosperity
around the corner, which no one
ever sees. Although there have been
a few lumber camps opening up with
an average wage-cut of SO 1-3 per
cent Of the scale of year ago, the
fallers and buckers, who work piece
work, are afraid to go to any OF these
camps because they are unable to
make any money to get away from,
these institutions of slavery.
The speed-up system is as general
In the lumber as in any other indus
try. The amount OF accidents and
deaths In the lumber industry is the
highest of any in the country.
So the only thing for the workers
is to smash this system of starva-.

was cold. The teacher thereupon ap-

It later developed that the little

Compton, CALI.
Daily Worker:
The Daily Worker is a wonderful
paper for all laboring men and
women. We should fight for it with
all our power, Labor people will win
if they stand one for all and all for
one. Labor people will be able to
take the bombs and clubs away from
these capitalists and their govern
ment. The millions of dollars that
are being used for war purposes will
be given to the unemployed to keep
them from starvation.
I have an aged father, about rs
years old. He has paid taxes in two
counties for 40 years. Now he is
sick in bed after having had para
lytic stroke. AS a result he has
many hardsi1ips and the counties re-
fuse to help him. I am disabled my
self, but 1 am willing to work. I
am a widow with a little boy of IL.
My taxes are not paid, my interest
isn't paid, I have a $4,000 mortgage
interest due and the little bit OF
property I have will be foreclosed if
I don't pay it this month.
Part of the time we have no food,
let alone no money to pay these ex-
penses. The banks and government
banks refuse me loan. They re-
fuse all the farmers a loan. They
starve the city people, too. In Los
Angeles there are over a million peo-
pie starving. We now see that these
capitalists and their government are
trying to starve us, those on the
farms and in the cities. B. McY.
