Grains displayed a firm under.
tone today. Scattered selling de.
pressed wheat u to 5sc at the
start, but the market later re-
covered in sympathy with the ad-
vance in other cereals.
A sharp advance in rye which
lifted prices as much as 27sc to

early feature.
Near midsession wheat was un-
changed to hc down, corn 2s to

the textile code a reality. the coarse

tone today in active trading.
screaTe report was greater than gem
eraiiy expected. it was less important
than usual because of the prospect OF
the reduction plan going into effect
and sharply cutting the crop for the
year.
OF vastly more importance to the
cloth market was the signing of the
code for fair competition which was
said to justify higher prices than
have yet been reached despite state
ments from Washington on the mat
ter of prices going up faster than
purchasing power.

PUBLIC OFFICIAL LETS
co, RUN ILLEGAL STORE

WEST BROWNSVILLE, Pa.--Bur-
CESS Stevenson talks sweet to miners
and then arranges yellow dogs to
break the strike at Lilly Mine.
A short time ago the N. NJ u.
Local of Lilly Mine called a mass
meeting to take up how to put a
stop to the wage cut the Valley
Camp Co. announced. Mr. Stevenson
came and got up and said how "his
sympathies are with the miners at
Lilly"
He showed very quickly how his
sympathy is with the miners. When
the mine started up work he had 6
yellow dogs there to put down any
move to strike the mine. He has two
daughters working at the company
store. Robber prices and forced buy
ing is the iron rule at this mine.
He is a public official. He knows that
company stores are illegal. He is
of the same party as Hoover and
Pinchot. He and Pinchot are only
two-faced demagogic politicians of
Paisley and the rest of the coal ope-
rators.
It takes them 2 minutes to get
yellow dogs and state police to break
strikes against wage-cuts and forced
dealings in stores, but for ten years
they refuse to take action against
the law-breaking Valley Camp Coal
Co. store.
Fight against the two-faced Re-
publican tools of the coal operators,

Communist Party and its working
class program and candidates in the
coming elections.

Fight Against Relief
Racket

BIRMINGHAM, Jan. q. - The
forced-labor victims of the East Biz
mingham charities went on strike to-
day against the miserable conditions
under which they are forced to slave
for less than a dollar day relief in
groceries. The latest scheme of the
charities was an edict that the work
ers walk two and three miles to work.
At a mass meeting in Stockholm
Park, at which the workers were adj
dressed by the organizer OF the I'm
employed Council, they drew up
set of demands and elected a rank
and file committee to present these
to the welfare agencies. The de-
mands are.

The feeble excuse the relief agent
gave for making these workers walk
was that Negroes rode in the trucks
and she did not wish to see nice
white workers riding in the same
trucks with the Negro workers. These
nice" white workers think otherwise,
and are vigorously fighting against
this attempt to keep Negro and white
workers apart. They realize that the
purpose of this boss scheme is to di-

URGES SUPPORT
OF JAPAN STRIKE

BRIDGEPORT, Conn, Jan. 81
Workers in the local plant of the
Singer Sewing Machine Company
eagerly grabbed for leaflets distribu-
ted yesterday at the factory gates
calling on the workers to support the
strike of Japanese workers in the
Singer plants in Japan against ten
per cent wage cut.
The employees of the local Singer
plant had their wages cut 10 per cent
about three months ago, and are IA
miliar with the vicious wage-slashing
policy of the Singer Company bosses.
The leaflet, issued by the Communist
Party, urges the Singer plant work.
ers to join their fellow-w workers to
protest against the intervention by
the U. S. Government in the strike
OF the Japanese workers. 1t calls
on them to join their fellow workers
in Japan in struggle against wage
cuts and the attempt of both the
U. 8. Government and the Japanese
Government to use the strike still
alton in Japan for chauvinist incite-
ment to prepare the toiling masses
for war in the increasingly bitter riv-
airy of the two bandit imperialist
powers for mastery of the Pacific and
control over China. The leaflet
points out that if the Singer Com
pany is successful in forcing down
wages of its Japanese employees, it
will use this success to initiate new
wage cuts in its plants in this coun-
try. urges the Singer workers to or
ganize grievance and department
committees in preparation for the
fight against wage cuts and for bet
ter conditions.
