My Neighbor Says:

House plants will have to be
watered more often now than
they were during early Winter
months. A warmer temperature
and brighter sunshine will dry
the pots out much more rapidly.
Stacked lime, scattered
about the henhouses, serves to
remove dampness and to destroy
disease germs. It should be used
freely on the floor, in the nests
and on the roosts.
Put a tablespoonful of salt In
the water in which potatoes are
boiled, even when you boil them
in their skins. A little of the
salt gets through the skins and
helps TO flavor the vegetables.

DAFFODIL.


r ONG ago, when March was con-
sidered the beginning of the new
year, the daffodilS were said to
- be the first flowers to greet it.
They are the first cousins to the
jonquils and narcissus. The daffodils
seem so happy and full of life, the color
is vivid and the straight, upright leaves
speak Of eagerness and alertneSS as
the stem and leaves combine.
The color of the leaves is unusual
and blends perfectly with the flower.
Surrounded by the sepals and petals is
the corona or tube; it has been called a
petticoat with a ruffle Inside of this
tube are the important stamens and
pistils 1t is inside this lovely hall that
the insects and bees, which are about
at this time of the year, come to feast.
The winds blow pretty hard, as you
well know, and so the daffodil care
fully bends her head. No rain or dew
can enter the dainty cup and destroy
the pollen or dilute the nectar.
AS she bowed her head the paper
like sheath was torn. and this is what
you find hanging about the stem. The

She perhaps has many diversined oc-

full and busy one.
It Is quite likely that she is occupied
in the business world. As she seems TO
have originality and pleasing manner
of expressing herself she might flnd
the advertising field good one for
her. Good taste seems to be one OF her
outstanding traits. This. in all prob
ability, Is expressed in both her home
and dress. She might use this ability
which enables her to select attractive
and proper things in the advertising
field.
Conceivably she does not feel that
she can neglect her home life. 1t Is
probable that she directs her home
with businesslike precision. Though
she may delegate many duties to others,
she would surely keep strict watch over
all home activities herself.
She appears to be the type who would
herently intelligent person, she would
derive both pleasure and education
from her trips. 1t seems that she
would seek information wherever an
opportunity presented itself.
Apparently she would be a very

would she lose sight of the emotional
needs of the child She would SEEM

work being considered injurious to health. Also,
for this reason, we receive pint Of free milk
each day. We earn two hundred and fifty

Our brigade was judged the best brigade by
the shop conflict committee and by the factory
conference Of all cost accounting brigades Our
brigade leader received prize, twice On free
days we decided to work for the benefit of our
Red Army Now there are two new machines
mounted in our department. SO we will mobilize
ourselves in order to give more production to
our factory, which has been rewarded for it's
record by the Central Committee of our Metal
Union with a red banner sent from the auto
workers Of Detroit
The shock brigade of filters in our tool de-
partment is named after the British Daily
Worker, and we want very much to be named
after the Communist newspaper of the Amer
lean working class and we ask your agreement
to this Taking the name of the Daily Worker,
we take an obligation before all the American
workers to fight, as before, under the direction
of our Communist Party, for the fulfillment of
our plan of production, not to give up our tempo
of work, so that carrying out our proletarian
duties here, we will quicken the hour Of the
world revolution.
Having strong desire to be internationast,
we have decided to enter as a body into the
International Red Aid. Our feminist Conlmu-
mist Party teaches us that there is no difference
between all the peoples Of the world, that all
workers and oppressed are brothers of one class.
We watch with great interest the trial OF the
Scottsboro boys who are quite innocent and
whom the hangmen of Sacco and Vanzetti want
to put to death in the electric chair. We pro-
test very much against this ferocity Of the
American capitalists, organizers Of lynch law,
and we demand the immediate freedom Of the
prisoners.

The excuse of the S. p is that Swoboda was

Struggle Against Imperialist War

out openly against imperialism, refusing to
transport soldiers from Bombay to China. True,
they only succeeded in holding up the transport,
but not preventing it altogether, this because
they were only 80 strong; if, however, these 80
men had been supported by all Of us, would 1t
have been possible even for one soldier, for one
machine-glm, Or one bullet to reach Chinese
land?
Railwaymen, longshoremen, seamen, must
realize that the innperialiSt war which has al
ready broken out in the East, will be more ter
rble, much more bloody and fierce than the
first world war OF 1914-18 We must now I'm
derstand that all efforts OF the imperialists are
directed to divide China and to wage an armed
attack upon the Soviet Union, and that this at
tack if we fail to prevent it, is not matter of
years and months even, but may be carried out
within the next few weeks, days, hours.
Already now we must begin work for organ
izing committees of action in each and every
port, at every junction, everywhere, wherever
there are factories and workshops producing
war supplies. tt is necessary that everytime
that war supplies are sent the whole line along
which these war supplies will have to pass
should be immediately notified, and that all
possible steps are taken in order to detain them
on the way, to prolong the time as much as pos
sible OF the freight moving from the place Of
production TO the place where II is supposed 10
be loaded Leaders must absolutely refuse to
load war supplies on the ships, they must, with
the help OF other workers, hinder the supplies
to be loaded, If 1t is to be done by backward I'M
class conscious workers. But II, IN spite OF
all, the war supplies get into the ship, then you
seamen, must come out and declare that Ilei-
ther will you go nor viii you permit anyone
else to lead the ship towards its point OF des-
tination.
Follow in the footsteps OF the heroic example
Of the Lancashire seamen, do not let the
banner of struggle fall, which had been raised
by our 30 comrades, now languishing III prison.
In the struggle against inlperialiSt war it is a
matter Of life and death for us: either we
emerge victorious and put an end to the hated
capitalist system and crisis, to starvation and
suffering, we, as obedient slaves, carry out
the orders OF Our masters and thus ourselves
help to tighten our chains TO become still more

TOR over seven months now Japanese imperial

A., has been plundering China. Thus marking
the beginning OF q Iresn world butchery for the
division Of China and intervention in the us.
S.R. Along with the pacifist bosh on the part
OF the bourgeois diplomats and leaders about
disarmament and the interference of the League
of Nations for the purpose OF hquidating the
Japanese Chinese conflict in all large ports
Of Europe and America war supplies being
feverishly loaded, troops are being concentrated
gor carrying out the further robbing plans Of
japanese imperialism to smash the Chinese
Red Army, to secure its rear and then transfer
to the long-desired spot--to conquer the Soviet
Far East and Siberia.
What then, do we transport workers do to
defend China against division, TO stop the hand
OF the robbers not to permit them to stifle the
Chinese Revolution not to let them put obs
tacles in the way Of the victorious Socialist con-
struction in the USS.R, this only fatherland
of the toilers Of the whole world?
Transport workers. we must directly realize
that SO far We have still remained passive, that
we looked upon the imperialist war In China
and the occupation of ManchuriS as something
not exactly concerning us. We have not made
even one serious attempt TO come out actively
against imperialism and not permit Japan to
be supplied with arms, for the purpose Of des-
uroying the lives OF hundreds of thousands of
Chinese toilers. We have adopted hundreds OF
resolutions, we organized demonstrations, we
Keep on exposing the imperiaIsts by sending in
formation to the press about the real content OF
the enormously large cases and sacks, which are
hetng sent under the Label OF different parts Of
machinery and other harmless goods, but we
have done absolutely nothing to actually detair
these death weapons we have not stopped even
one load full Of war supplies and ornaments.
Must Move TO Deeds
We cannot remain satisfied any more with
mere words; it is high time to go over to deeds.
We must presently come forward actively in the
struggle against inperialst war. Why haven't
we had any experiences in this field? Have we
forgotten how our brothers In the u. S. A., in
italy, England and other countries found it pos
s3bis not TO permit any war supplies pass for
roland against Soviet Russia? And today, do
mot those of who are more active more class
conscious, indicate the road to us upon which
ve must all go?
