FIRE PREVENTION
WEEK WILL BE
OBSERVED HERE,

Fire prevention week will be OBJ
served all this week in the United
States in conjunction with clean
up week, and Ell Centre will take
her place with other communities
in an effort to clear the city OF
unsightly and dangerous accumu-
lations of rubbish and trash.
President Herbert Hoover issued
the proclamation setting the week
October Q to Is. The proclamation
follows in part:
1.-THE deplorable loss of thous-
ands Of human lives and the pro-
perty waste of approximately half
a billion dollars caused each year
by fire should be scrupulously
avoided. The American per capita
loss now is nearly double that of
20 years ago and constitutes a
challenge to our efforts that no
citizen can afford to ignore. 1t is
drain on our credit resources
which we should strive to eliminate
as it is largely preventable."
In Ell Centre fire prevention
week will take place at the same
time as the annual cleanup week
and the city fire, engineering and
police departments will cooperate
in making the event successful
and thorough one.
mot only will Ell Centre be q
safer place on account of the elm
ination of many fire hazards" SAID
Phil Knights, city engineer, today,
but the town will be a more at
tractiye and pleasant place in which
to live. All residents are asked to
cooperate in making the drive
against trash and rubbish 100 per
cent perfect this year. Every vacant
lot, all alleys as well as all bust
ness and residential premises are
to be inspected every day. 1t is
hoped there will not be one spot
in Ell Centre where trash and UNI
sanitary rubbish may be found a.

immediate relief for the starving workers and

ex-servicemen of the last war; most of whom
are now unemployed or working only part-time
For the hungry masses, in their opinion, the
slop from restaurants and hotels and the miser
able charity system is good enough. The EN-
ployed workers, themselves suffering from
part-time work and wage cuts, are being forced
to pay for even the charity system. The abom-
Unable "block add, Community chest, and

forced collections in the factories and neghbor-

on the hungry masses and taking it off the rich

are concerned have plenty of funds to aid the

huge amounts for graft and corruption which

aid to the rich Hoover's Reconstruction Cor

This is the United States of America in 1882
But what have the capitalist politicians

Warehouses are bursting with unused food and

Twelve million workers, ready and anxious

Those workers who still desperately cling to
their Jobs have been forced to accept one drastic
wage cut after another, until in some cases thelf
wages are now so per cent below their former

Hoover's "stagger PLAN has brought almost

in the weekly earnings of the workers. Only 10
per cent of the employed workers now have

workers are working only few days per week
Unemployment, part-time work and wage
cuts have resulted in a lowering of the living
standards of the entire working class by more

workers down to the level of the poorly paid
European workers.
