 The decision to back the Owen Thomas bill instead of the new cur rency proposal of Patman's, means that bonus proponents have partially avoided an out-and-out fight over the efficacy of an issuance of two billion dollars in currency to provide for issuance of government bonds to Federal Reserve bank&ln return for which the banks will issue Reserve notes, with which the Government wOl11d nav tho yataraps

 Jimmy Johnson of the Garden charged that Jacobs was working hand in glove with Baer's man. agers in an effort to extract a huge purse rom the Garden for a fight against Sharkey.
 Jacobs sent word that the Schmeling- -Baer fight was sched- uled for New York, but if negotia- tions for it fell through he had offers for the meeting of +l1e Ger man and the Californian in Flor ida, Los Angeles and Chicago.

Several weeks ago they published

not even let out a peep in regard

are friends of the working people.
They have to show me for that is

your blood hounds on your own po-

own business men and bankers here
who are mixed up with sex. But
let the workers alone.

Editors Note: This worker is
rightly indignant about the yellow

better from capitalist owned sheets
whose very business il is to detract
the interests of the workers from
their own problems, by playing up
sex stories and other lurid scandals
in as sensational a manner as pos
sible. This worker should do his best
to get wide circulation of workers

WORKER CORRESPONDENCE
Where Workers
Rule

MOSCOW, U. S. S. RI am a
Moscow worker. From 1902 until
1912 1 worked in a textile factory
Together with rs other workers
lived in the factory barracks on the
second floor. The place was very
crowded and filthy.
In 1912 began to work as motor
man on street cars. I lived in a
very small room, had no conveniences
and had to walk long way for water
The courtyard was so small that a
wagon could not possibly turn around
in it. All the Stops and garbage was
thrown right under the window.
After the revolution I moved from
this dilapidated shanty into an apart
ment. We live very we'll. Our house
is warm, light and comfortable. We
have electric light, running water,
steam heat, open plumbing and
RADIO.
At present I work as a railway in
spector. Sept. IA, 1880, I was elected
to this post by the street car work
ers' organizations of the October
district.
I now earn sos a month, and my
son studies in a factory school and
receives a government subsidy of $22
month. So that the monthly in
come of my family is STA month.
Of this income I pay only $40 for
rent and all other services-light,
water and heating.
Now I will tell you how I spend
my working day, I work Z hours a
day. After work I attend a course
for higher qualification. My social
activities are to check up on the
work Of the voluntary organizations,
the International Labor Defense and
the collective farm under our patron
age.
After every five days of work I
have rest day, when 1 go to clubs,
or make trips out of town.
