KANSAS CITY. July 23.-The hear

statement defending the agricultural
marketing act issued by a group OF
farm leaders here today.
Among the signers were r. w. Brown,

Numerous witnesses appearing here
before the House Committee headed by
Representative Joseph B. Shannon OF
Missouri have objected to Government
aid to co-operatives which compete with
privately owned marketing concerns,
and have assailed the Federal Farm
Board and the agricultural marketing
act.
THE Shannon hearing has all the
earmarks of a political scheme that can
have no other purpose than to confuse
the public and hamstring the farmer, "
the statement of the cooperative lead
ers said. THE methods adopted by the
committee and the glaring inconsistent
cies revealed in the testimony character
ize the whole procedure as a political
farce.

WHY $4,000 BEET WORKERS
ARE STRIKING

Under the leadership Of the Agricultural
y Workers Industrial Union the beet workers
of Colorado have called out 10000 workers in
the first week of the strike. MeSdcans, Japan
ese, Russo Germans and Americans together are
fighting savage wage cuts the 1880 contract
was for $23 an acre; in 1881 it was sl8, and
now, 1892, the contract only offers 50 to SIS.
The beet workers are employed directly by
the small operators, but back OF them Is the
dominating influence of the whole northeastern
Colorado region, Great Western Sugar Company,
which owns the chain Of sugar factories,
Banks and operators owe money to this COM
pany which therefore controls every phase Of
life OF the area, including the churches and
schools. This is the company that has always
paid miserable wage and is attempting to put
through another slash.
The 1880 level OF wages, which was reduc-
ton since 1927 meant constant indebtedness Of
the workers to the employer, that is, peonage.
The 1881 level meant not only peonage but
dependence on reluctant and insulting charity.
The 1882 level, lower STILL means starvation!
Wage Cuts Not New
The present wage cutting Is no new policy
which can be attributed by bourgeois economists
to the depression. The whole record Of the
great Western Sugar Company is record of
squeezing down the workers A study made by
the University of California records that during
the period of rising sugar prices, nominal wages
rose very little. Thus from 1909 to 1928 the
price Of beets advanced so per cent while Con
tract labor" in the Colorado beet fields advanced
only rs per cent. But when beet prices fell
10 per cent In 1881, the company Immediately
cut wages % per cent Now this year it pro-
poses about 40 per cent further cut.
The First Demand
The first demand OF the workers is for the
1880 wage level, $23 an acre. This level is in
itself miserable pittance since an experienced
worker can earn at this rate but $3.50 year.
The highest proposed wage for this year is $3.50
for the years work "a man handle 10
acres, woman averages 7, and children pro-
portionately less)
Thus by putting In IL to 16 hours day,
mostly on hands and knees in the dirt, and in
GLIDING the labor Of all children from five years
and older, family could make $500 for the
year. The company proposes to cut this to $375
On this the whole family must exist, since there
is no other employment available for the thou
sands Of workers during the five winter months.
Always the workers have been forced to bor-
row during the winter, practise encouraged
by the sugar company, in order to hold them
In a condition Of peonage. Last winter the
company lent lbs per week per adult, that is
&c meal, which money was issued in the form
of orders on the company stores, where prices
ranged far above the other stores.
Forced Labor
American business men, who are so sensitive
to forced labor" In other countries are glad
to have thousands Of Colorado children earn
profits for them by crawling in the dirt under
the boiling sun.

THE most brutal features Of mass starvation are
revealed among the steel workers Of the
Mahoning Valley.
Being denied even the smallest means of relief
by the various bankrupt charities and no steps
taken by the city authorities to relieve the SUI
fering among the poor and unemployed the next
step has been the shutting off the water supply.
Thousands of workers are without even water to
satisfy their hunger and thirst. They go to their
neighbors for their daily supply of water. The
sanitary conditions are becoming unbearabe in
the workers homes Even the capitalist press
speaks of possible epidemic of terrible diseases
in the Mahoning Valley unless the water supply
is turned on at once in all the homes.
Who Owns and Controls the Water Supply?
In Youngstown the water is owned and con-
troled by the city On January 28th the city
water commissioner issued final notice to 1900
homes in the third district that their water will
be tsgned off unless full payment is made at
once. The local papers also report that steps
will be taken to collect $46 900 due the city from
the public schools. In District No. the shutting
off the water supply will effect a whole section
of the city. 1t will result in untold misery;
suffering; and breeding of disease among the
working-class. The city government must be

held criminally responsible for all sickness,
diseases deaths.
Racketeering in Water
Already petty racketeers have started into the
water business advertising their water supply.
On Poland Avenue in the working-las nelghbor-
hood where the city supply has been shut off
in many homes an independent racketeer has
supplied water through his own pump and fill
tering station. Now he has threatened to cut
off the supply unless payment is made bills
due him. On Jan. 81 he issued final notice
to many Negro families. The water was shut off
from a blind Negro worker BUT THE BLIND
NEGRO WORKER, who had heard of the Unem-
ployed Council, ASKED TO BE DIRECTED TO
THE UNEMPLOYED COUNCIL HEADQUAR-
TIERS so that he could report When he re-
turned he told his neighbors that the Unen-
ployed Council would arrive soon to mobilize the
workers of the whole street to turn on the water
in all homes. When the petty racketeer heard
of this he turned and himself turned on the
water fearing that the angry workers would
destroy his pipe line and water supply
Arrest Workers Seeking Water
In Struthers, Ohio, few miles from Youngs-
town, the city water supply is owned by the
OHIO WATER SERVICE COMPANY. In hun
dreds of homes the water supply has been turned
Off On Jan. "a, the Unemployed Council
gained the workers in many sections of the city
to turn on the water supply. Scores OF workers
turned out with picks and shovels to dig up the
water boxes and turned on the supply. Soon the
water company was notified and police made an
arrest to intimdate the workers. However, the
largest crowd seen in the Struthers City Hall
turned out for the trial of the arrested worker
showing solidarity and determination to fight
against hunger The mayor who acted as judge
feared to pass sentence in the presence Of the
crowd of workers but later handed down ver-
dict of guilty. -
Water Company Prosecutor
At the trial the city prosecutor was absent
being out-of-town And the city called up the
ATTORNEY FOR THE WATER COMPANY
TO PROSECUTE THE CASE BECAUSE THEY
WE'RE INTERESTED IN THE CASE. This was
openly admitted by the Mayor when questioned
about the legal right of the water company to
act as the prosecutor The mayor and attorney
for the water company ruled that the water
supply was private property just as bread or an
auto and that it was an, criminal offense to open
a closed water line The mayer further &C.

they are at work. One hundred and sixty babies
are now in the factory nursery.

PriestIy Allies of the Sugar Company
AS everywhere, the capitalist exploiters have
as their allies the priest and ministers, who
try to split the ranks of the workers into weak
ened groups by stirring up racial prejudices.
The fact that over so per cent of the workers
of Mexican descent we're born in this country,
in no way weakens the discrimination. In many
schools MexicanS, children of Mexican par-
entage are segregated in classes away from the
others. Mexcans are forced to live in the worst
part of town, away from the hundred per.
centers
The Catholic Mexican Welfare Committee"
has approved publicly of this segregation.
MANY priests favor segregated colonies :.
but some fear that this makes it easy for the
radicals to work them. we wish here
to again call attention 10 the Red propaganda

American working class, Negro and white, native
and foreign-born, in struggle for the six i'm
mediate demands These demands represent the
minimum needs Of the exploited masses in the
United States The Communist Party calls for
mass struggle, of which the election struggle
is indispensable part, for these demands
throughout the United States. The Communist
Party proposes mass struggle and mass resistance
Of the most resolute and determined character
against all war plans and acts of war.
Organized mass struggle for the six demands
is the first requirement for the decisive struggle
for the establishment of Workers and Farm
ers' Government.
Only the revolutionary government OF the
workers and farmers, with the Communist Party
in the lead, can solve the crisis for all the ex
plotted and free the masses from hunger, slavery
and irnperialist war.
The Communist election program is call to
the American workers and poor farmers, black
and white, for unity in organized and militant
mass struggle on all fields for the revolutionary
way out of the crisis-the way the Russian
masses took TO victory and freedom.
The Communist Party election program is o
declaration of war FOR the working class-war
AGAINST American capitalism and its often
sve against the lives and liberties Of the masses
In the United States and throughout the world.
