United States Steel at 35l2; West

General Motors broke under 20

Agriculture Department
Saved $12, 900, 600

Out of the $5O,ooO,444 that con-
gress appropriated last year for
feed loans the Department of Ag-
riculture held back over $4,000
600 from the farmers. This a.
mount was held back from the
farmers thru rejection of loans
and thru sharp cuts in those which
were granted. While thousands
of head of stock in the drouth area
are starving and hundreds of head
have already died the Department
of Agriculture under the direction
of Soviet wheat-dumping Hyde,
secretary of the department, kept
back $12,000,00O of funds which
had been appropriated by congress
for the very purpose of feeding
the stock of farmers in the drouth
stricken areas.

The demonstrations of the work.
ers turnout the country on Febru-
airy 4th, were a mobilization for
the intensified struggle against
the starvation that faces tens of
millions of the working class in
the coming months. The capitalist
class still refuses to give the I'M
employed workers relief. The only
force between the working masses
and the privation they now suf-
fer and the worse misery that the
bankers have decreed for them is
the iron bound ranks that will
force the capitalist class to grant
immediate relief to the toiling
masses and unemployment insur-
ance.
February A must stand as step
on the road to a broader and sue
cessful struggle against privatior
for the masses. We must bring
the masses of the toiling farmers
to fight in this struggle with the
city workers. Against the attach
of the bankers must be the united
front Of the toilers.

MILK STRIKE in
NY. SPREADING
THREATEN TO ORDER STATE
MILITIA OUT.

So determined has the resistance
of the small dairy farmers to the
attacks of the milk trust become
in New York state that the Milk
Trust is demanding that the mill
tia be called out to prevent milk
dumping. The statements that
have been made 10 the governor
are that the poverty stricken
dairy farmers are prepared to at
tack milk wagons, tank cars and
other milk distributing vessels and
dump them.
The city of Buffalo is facing a
milk famine unless an agreement
is reached by February 18th. The
milk trust is using this fact to de-
mand of the governor that an ar
bitration board be organized fol
the city of Buffalo. In this way
they hope to force the small dairy
farmers to accept prices for mill
below the cost of production. i
this is not done the milk trust de
mands that a special emergenc!
be declared by the governor. Il
this case the department of healtl
of the state would assume contrc
by executive mandate.
The milk trust is determined b
use the state power, if necessary
the state militia, to force the far
liners to accept the nliserabl
prices they offer. Against thi
attack by the milk trust and b
the state power the small an
middle farmers must organize-ir
to the United Farmers League S
that a united front of all tn
small producers can be set u
against the milk trust.

WORKERS WAGES
SLASHED VICIOUSLY
MILLIONS HUNGER DESPITE
FALL IN LIVING COSTS

The figures which the Bureau
of Labor Statistics of the Depart
ment of Labor has recently made
public show that the drop in wag-
es of the industrial workers has
been so sharp in the past two
years as to offset MANIFOLD the
the decrease in the cost of living
about which the capitalist press
talks so much. During 1881 the
cost of living as figured out by
the Bureau of Labor Statistics,
whose figures are just about
what they wish to make them,
dropped $3.50. During the last
year, however. the decline in IN
dustrial employment amounted to
1870 and the decline in lndustri-
al earnings to 24.5So.
Since December 1929 the cost of
living as reported by the Bureau
has declined 14.9 per cent. The
workers for whom this cost of Iiv-
ing is figured suffered a decline
in employment of 20 per cent
while their earnings fell AS pei
cent. The attack that has beer
levied against the living standards
of the working class is even wor3s
than is here admitted by the Blu
, reau. At the time these figure:
were taken, December 1929, there
were already millions of unem.
