Two Gatherings for Unemploy-
ment Relief

statement but goes further and writes editor
Tally, Even from the usually prosperous agri-
cultural areas comes stories of individual priva-
ton, little short of starvation"
With this appalling hunger staring in the
faces Of about one million who are unemployed
in the State, comes the announcement that re-
lief will be cut further. The amount of relief
distributed, as witnessed for instance in Cleve-
land, where the Plain Dealer reports that "Cleve-
land has been forced to reduce its scale of help,
until now those dependent upon the Associated
Charities receive approximately half of what
the county allots its convictS in the jails and
the dogs in the city pound" This is the Emer-
gency Relief that Governor White called spe-
cial session Of Legislature to carry through
program Of the most fragrant neglect of the
hundreds Of thousands Of families in the State
which is program of slow starvation.
That the governor lied when he made the
statement to Senator Bingham is admitted by
the very newspaper supporting him. In an ed
itorial in the Cleveland Plain Dealer entitled
SLOW Starvation" it is Enthusiastically stated
ut is a frank confession that our charity is
not on the basis Of little better than slow star
vation" Thus we observe that the program of
Immediate relief" in the State of Ohio, is
part OF the national campaign of slow starva-
ton and deterioration Of the lives Of millions
of workers
The Charity Racket
The Unemployed Councils have always pointed
out the role of the private charities, as means
of further developing the starvation system, and
as racket for small section Of its official
dom The report of the Community Fund of
Mansfield, for the year ending December 81,
1881 bears out these facts In their Official
report they write "the total Community Fund
receipts for the year were, $59,633OO, while the
total salaries were $33,63SS8" What clearer ex-
ample is necessary of the forced method of ex-
tortion from employed workers in the factory
to be used for fat salaries by officials, of which
a very small sum goes actually for so-caued relief

mass agitation must play in every strike struggle
To get the masses TO act, we must convince them
by our agitation, as well as by our practical
activity.
The necessity OF an educational apparatus and
an educational director as part and parcel of
the strike machinery, who is very close to every
phase OF the struggle, is one Of the lessons to
be drawn from this strike. If the strike ma
chinery has no provision for issuing and dis
trtbuting our agitational matter, then particu-
larry under such terror conditions as existed in
Kentucky and Tennessee, the Union and Party
will not only find it difficult to get the material
into the hands of the workers. but will i1ey-
itably find that the educational phase of the
organizational work will be be neglected The
union paper must by all means be issued during
such strike struggle, no matter what the sacri-
fee this demands in the central Office of the
union Then, in the course Of the strike, it was
found that there is a real need particularly in
our major strikes Of this kind to have a special
short simple pamphlet, putting forward the
Party program particularly before these workers
and making special appeal to them on the
basis OF the local situation and the local issues
arising 70 join The Communists Party,

The Pandit RoOtIicker of Fiji

Happened to read a paper published in the
Fiji Islands, called "Vriddhi" printed partly in
English and partly in Hindustanee, Sanscrit or
whatever it is. And. say, boys and girls, we
run across something that would make that
Broadway socialist" bootlicker for imperialism,
Haywood Broun, turn green with envy.
You see. a Hindu by the name Of Pandit
Durga Prasad, edits that paper and he starts
out an editorial in English by quoting H. c.
Wells sad prophecy that the British Empire and
indeed the whole of capitalism, ''may go down to
its doom before the forces of War, Universal
Bankruptcy and Bolshevisrn" Then the Pandit
bootlcker to British Imperialism turns in ex-
allied language this nomentous matter into a
ridiculous as well as bootlicking ohmax by sayo
ing:
"If so. the work that our Expire has done
will come before the judgment Of the hiss
torian whether it be good or evil: and we cam
not doubt that the decision Will rest on one
point-how far we can Justify our claim that
our rule of subject races has been paternaR
and educative, operating for their good rather
than our own advantage. And here in Fiji,
in this year 1882, we have the crucial event
which justifies claim Ratu Sukana has
been appointed District Commissioner for
Lau."
P. s.:-The point of this Classification" OF
imperialism by one OF its subject race boot
lickers on the thin ground that another boot
Ticker has been appointed to office, can be seen
better by noting that in another item it is said
that unemployed workers in the Fiji Islands
"hsve work made available for them on the
Tailevu dairy farms at a wage ranging from eight
shillings day for European married man to
four shillings for q half-caste single man"
Forced labor for private profit at half the white
mans pay; that's the ticket for subject races un.
der all imperialsms.

H0aU Trees Became Goal

A LII living things-both plant and animal
I lived at first, millions and millions of
years ago, in the ocean. Gradually when by
chance one or another plant got its head
above the salt water and found the sunshine
quite pleasant, the plants dared to grow taller,
until millions of years later they came to be
uees-not like those we know now, but ferns
and moses, hundred feet tall and wide as
both your arms, growing thickly together in
the marsh All of this took millions of years
millions.
Then something else happened
The trunks of the oldest fern trees became
weak and were crowded until they fell over to
make room for the younger and stronger. They
fell into the water, but they did not rot in
these salty marshes. Gradually more fell until
there was layer of huge trunks Of dead trees.
After layer more than a hundred feet thick
lay there the sand was washed in by the sea,
and mud was carried to them by the rivers,
and this great layer of dead trees was slowly
buried deep below the surface of the earth.
Hundreds and thousands and millions of years
passed, and deeper and deeper the ancient
trees were buried by the sand and mud.
All the while deepening layers Of mud and
sand grew heavier and heavier on the trees
below, pushing harder and harder The sand
and mud above were pressed into layers of
stone, shale, sandstone and slate. Slowly the
heat and the heavy pressure changed the trees
into carbon or coal. Then one year there
was q great crumbling of the earth's crust
and the layers of stone and the carbon which
had once been trees were lifted high above
the level of the sea.
And now ages after the time when the trees
first thrust themselves from the swamp, men
living all over the face of the earth dig about
In its crust to mine the coal under the rocks.
This very winter, scarcely giving 1t thought,
We burn in our furnaces what's left OF giant
forest changed by millions of years.

an employe of the State Forest Service. Dur
ing the fire season, the regular force of State
rangers was increased, and Don had been
lucky enough to land one of these jobs With

ILL LEEDS glanced at the clock on the
mantel of the ranch-house living room.
x 1t was time to go for the mail. Open
ing the door of closet, he took out his
\ broad -brimmed hat, for the Midsummer
sun was beating down intensely on the
hard, dry earth outside.
Stepping out on the porch, he cast an ap-
praising eye at the unbroken blue Of the sky.
Certainly there was no rain IN the prospect
for today He cuffed the curling, parched grass
with his foot. 1t was like tinder. II rain
didn't come soon the fire hazard in the sur
rounding forests would be terrific.
Halfway to the mail box, which stood at
the junction of the main road and the lane
that led to the ranch house, Bill paused and
gazed of to the north, one hand shielding
his eyes. He always stopped at that partic-
ular spot on his way to the mail box for it
was from this point that he could get the
best view Of the Goats Head, q peculiarly
shaped mountain which reared its massive
shape above the other peaks Of the range
There was slight haze in the air today,
and the outlines of the Goats Head were not
very clear. Nevertheless, in his minds eye,
Bill could see the tiny cabin Of wood and
glass that clung precariously to the bare rocks
near the summit And within that cabin he
could visualize his older brother, Don, keeping
his ceaseless vigil over the forests below him,
ever watchful for the first wisps Of smoke that
meant another attack by the fire demon Of
the mountains.
