born Ludwig, who committed sui

The 68-year-old man, native

RESERVE BOARD
!: BUYING BONDS

T Continuing open market pur-
chases of United States Govern
ment securities, the Federal Re
serve banks for the week ended
May 81 acquired an additional
( $23 100000 of these obligations,
the Reserve Board announced to-
day.
This brought buying for the
last two weeks to $48,00O,000 as
the Reserve System cooperated
in the inflationary drive. Off
cials said the open market opera
tions would be carried on from
time to time as conditions justi'
fled.
The buying has had the
tendency of improving the Gov
ernment bond market just prior
to the June IS financing, when
about $373,000,00O in certificates
will be retired and an issue of
more than twice that amount au-
thorized.
Gold still is flowing from cir
culation, the gold reserves OF
the reserve banks May 81 having
reached $3,519. $4,000, the largest
figure on record. The increase
for the week was $4,000, 900.
The ratio of gold reserves to cir
culation and deposit liability was
68.8 per cent against 62.9 pei
cent a year ago.

INVESTIGATION
/ IN Vain
Branded as Attempt to Set Up
"SpoiIs System" to Give
Democrats Jobs

The House Civil Service Com,
mittee is expected to meet early
next week to map out the plan 1t
will follow in it's investigation to
determine how the State quota
provision of the civil service act of
1883 has been administered.
Authorization to make the in
nuiry was voted late yesterday by
the House, lit to 81, in the face
Of bitter Republican opposition
who charged that the Democrats
were attempting to set up a
"spoils system" to provide jobs
for deserving Democrats"
Under the resolution, which was
sponsored by Representative Will
liam w. Hasting CD Of Okla
homa, the House Civil Service
Committee, headed by Representa-
tive Lamar JefferS CD of Ala
bama, will have power to sub
poena and swear witnesses and to
pore over all available records.
Since the resolution permits the
committee to sit during the con
gressional recess, JefferS said to-
day it was unlikely that the probe
would get under way until Con
gress ends the special session.
The investigation is expected to
have particular application to
residents of the District, Mary
land and Virginia who are in the
Federal service, the three juriSdic,
tions being above the allotted
quota of job holders.

Garbage Burners
Starved and Kept
in Leaky Barracks
by a Worker Correspondent

ISLAND PARK, L. Fifty workers
who work here Burning the garbage
make $3.50 maximum for minimum
of IL hours a day. Sometimes they
work up to 20 hours a day, for the
same $3.50, no overtime pay. The
work is not steady. The boss sends
them to work only when they have
debts in the store or in the house.
Food prices are sky-high. There
is only one store there, which belongs
to the boss. Try and figure out-lard
costs so cents a pound there, stale
bread II cents a loaf, meat costs 81
cents a pound minimum, and it's rot
ten at that. Besides, they live in
barracks which also belong to the
boss. Rent is $3.50 a week. On rainy
days the rain comes in. There are
no window panes. The roofs are like
strainers, full of holes.
To keep the men divided, the boss
plays a trick. He gives some men
lousy whiskey free, while he charges
81 a pint to the other men. These
barracks are at 10 Island Parkway,
l.. 1. BY the way we are sure the
contractor is some big shot city poll
tloian. His name is Tony Mango.

turned over direct to the unem-
ployed workers instead of being ad-
ministered by grating politicians,
the workers would certainly find
their conditions improved.
On the second demand, that of
immediate abolition of all unpaid,
forced labor the supervisors said that
this was under the jurisdiction Of
private agencies, and that the thing
would be investigated as quickly as
possible Captain William Hynes of
the Red Squad stated in one of the
newspapers that he knew of no forced
labor, and that it would be a good
idea if there were some.
On the demand of direct relief
equivalent to work orders for all un-
employed, the supervisors stated that
the funds were not available.
The attitude of the supervisors
was one of passing the buck, first
by stating that they did not have
jurisdiction to grant certain demands,
second by stating that they did not
have the funds, and third by stating
that they were not aware that the
things were so terribly bad, that
there was no forced labor, and that
no worker died because of starva-
tion or lack of medical attention.

Ice Plant Workers
Do II Hours Labor
for Eight Hours Pay
BY a Worker Correspondent

NEW ORLEANS, Lathe con-
ditions at the Welburn Ice Co., 2791
Charles Street, are this way: They
had clerk on the platform and
a box man, and they had two ice
tankmen, and one was doing two
jobs pulling ice and storing it and
also selling it on the platform,
and when the code came in they
put only one man to work. They
fired the clerk, put the day tank
man in his place, doing boxing at
the same time. They took the
boxman and put him pulling ice
and storing it away-that is the
day boxman that is on from seven
to three in the morning.
Then they took the man who
comes on at three to eleven and
pulls ice, stores it away and also
sells it, and the third watch from
II to Z in the morning, there is
no one pulling ice on that watch.
All they do is freeze down on this
watch, and they one replaced one
man in the engine room to Offset
the man that was doing clerk duty.
What they have been doing is
to make the conditions of the

BOYCOTT OF GERMAN GOODS
New York
Comrade Editor:
AS a Party member, would like
to be informed as to the official po-
sition of the Communist Party on
the boycott of all German made
goods. Should we, as Communists,
encourage 1t, or refrain from partici-
pating in it?
Ed.
Answer: The Communist Party
does not believe that the fascist re-
gime in Germany or any other coun-
try can be overthrown by boycott
or in any other way but by the revo-
lutionary activity Of the German
working class. However, Communists
will not oppose spontaneous protest
activity taking the form of a boycott
of German-made goods. We should
endeavor to point out to those par
ticipating in a, boycott that their Just
indignation should move them to
af1liate with the anti-fascist organi-
nations In this country effectively
working for the overthrow Of Nazi
fascism.

Granite Center
of Maine Is Ripe
for Organization
lBr a worker Correspondent

PORTLAND, Me.-Rockland is the
center of the granite cutting industry
of Maine, and also has large sur
rounding farm section, as well as be-
ing important in the lime kiln in
dustry 1t also has cement mills.
There is a C. p unit there, and a
stroag hrsrc'l q the "Fi1o'sh Fed
eration," which is under Cornmu-
mist leadership.
The only really important farming
district of Maine is the potato section
of Probstock County, in the extreme
southern end of the state, 500 miles
from Portland. This spot is the
largest producer of potatoes in the
U. tied States.
l understand that conditions have
been terrible there for years, and that
it would be ripe for organization.
But not to my knowledge has any
contact been made there, by the
Party or by any of the mass or
ganizations."
AS for Portland, we have small
unit, which has done some work in
the unemployed Council and in the
so-called relief work" racket. The
population here is 10000.
There has been spontaneous
movement for better wages among
the 500 workers on Federal Gov
ernment" relief work at the Forts
in Portland Harbor, to which we are
trying hard to give leadership.
