Negro Delegate Speaks.
Nelson, Negro worker, was a de-
legate chosen by the Metal Workers
Industrial Union. He is worker in
the railroad car shops in Chicago.
The tremendous construction thru
out the country was the thing which
impressed Nelson most, he said.
The attitude toward him among
the Russian workers and peasants
was one of the warmest frinedshir,
Nelson said, and oppression of the
Negro workers in the capitalist coun-
tries, particularly the United States,
was topic of continuous discussion
with him, he said.
Vacations in Chicago.
Giving glowing picture of the
rest homes and sanitoriums in the
Soviet Union, Nelson, in response to
a question said that vacations for
the Negro workers in the South Side
of Chicago were only for the unem-

spread, and at one time it was
numbered among the country's lead

The years rolled by and Lyman
journeyed East to even bigger tri-

Cocoanut Grove, however, becoming
a regular tradition and each sue

Ships Bars


Transatlantic steamships of for

sortment of liquors of all kinds.
Nearing port the rooms where the
liquors are kept are sealed up and
kept sealed until the boat is back on
the high seas-twelve miles from the
coast. Then the stewards break the
seals and open the bar.
Many of the steamers put on
Christmas cruises of the same nature
with $50 maximum price. But, Of
course, that did not include the cab
aret entertainment. These short
cruises mean hard work for the
stewards aboard the boats but they
do not object as tips are heavy and,
anyhow, they get enough rest on
their regular trips.
1t is not unusual for steward to
cross both ways these times without
getting single tip-and their wages
are practically nothing as they de-

Everyone of the thirty thousand
speakeasies in this city is all set for
a big New Years Eve. 1t is the one
night in the whole year when grown
people want to be anywhere except
home. A lot of the theatres have
planned midnight shows for those
who do not drink, but most of the
theatre-goers will drop in at some
cabaret afterward.
One thing the depression has done
has been to cause prices in the
speakies to drop and S. bill will
last whole evening if one is not
extravagant. 1t used to take $25 for
the same amount of amusement. One
cabaret has even cut prices to 81,
which covers everything, unless one
demands more than the regular bill Of
