On top of layoffs in Bessemer, gal

public layed off 125 open hearth
laborers this morning and told them
it would call them when they we're
needed again.
Only open hearth furnaces are
operating. Steel production in this
district has taken another per cent
drop. The financial writer's in the
local papers are pessinistic. They
can't see any outlook for much i'm
provement in the situation. Railroad
buying has not come through and
automobile production is going down
steadily.
The Steel and Metal Workers m

BUFFALO, N. z, Oct. 2o.-whiIs

the U. s. Rubber Reclaiming Co,
workers Of four shifts we're outside
the mill gates and one shift was In
side waiting to hear the company's
answer. Within ten minutes after the
committee had received the company's
answer, the last shift was outside
the mill and the $50 workers In the
plant had tied it up completely.
The strike was the result Of several
weeks of intensive organizational pre-
parations ably carried through by a
group Of workers from various de-
partments and shifts. Under the
NRA, the speed-up which had been
steadily intensified In the past few
years, was not lesscned and although
hours of work were shortened. wages

were earning no more than e2.40 3

The demands presented TO the CON-

workers included recognition Of tbs

the Rubber Workers Industrial Union,

immediate issues, the workers feel
confidence in the organization and
can then be led in struggle for enact
ment of the Relief Ordinance.
d. AS result of our isolation, the
work consists chiefly of agitation.
If in an eviction case, however, a
workers furniture is on the street
and the comrades can think of moth
ing better to do than to hold an
election campaign m e Getting In
front of the house, they only drive
away the workers. Agitation is nee
essary in our work, better agitation
than at the present time-but 1t
must be accompanied by persistent
struggle.
AS against this, we have the EXAM
pie of single comrade who recently
was assigned to the West Side. This
comrade found a longshoreman who
faced eviction. The comrade went
down to the waterfront, held q meet

turned to the West Side and together
with the longshoremen made prep
arations to prevent this eviction.
Up to the present, our meetings
were greeted with bricks and vege-
tables. The workers did not see us
in action. Now. action was being
planned, and the ti1rowers of the
bricks, boys belonging to a Catholic
boys club, have been neutralized, and
contacts with a few Of them have
been established. What has changed
the situation? The work Of single
comrade with q lot Of initiative who
not only agitated but went into ac-
ton. This has won the support Of
the workers and will lead to organ
ization and further struggle.

mass of the unemployed.
c. The consequence Is that the
Party does not know the immediate
issues in the neighborhoods Issues
on which the workers can be mobii-
lied and will struggle.
Grip of Isolation
For instance, there LIS no question
that the Workers Relief Ordinance
represents the immediate needs OF
the workers Of New York. But if we
cannot get the workers to struggle
for it, then as an issue it strikes
no roots. This is due to the failure
of the Unemployed Council, through
its isolation, to find out the in1me-
date issue that can arouse the
neighborhood. For example, in Pitts
burgh, In one section 1t was milk
for the children; in another, shoes
for the children-and Pittsburgh also
has a Workers Relief Ordinance. A
demand has meaning only In so far
as it can mobilize workers for strug-
gle. That must be our starting point
and guide in getting the workers in
to action. Through struggle on the

His Start

There in Shiloh Temple,
on Elijah Avenue, Wilbur
Glenn Voliva proclaims his
doctrines of faith and mo-
rale, and runs the ten-mil-
n-dollar manufacturing
business of the Disciples OF
Zion.
This plump, severe, thin
haired gentleman got the
call to religion while he was
fighting potato bugs on an
Indiana farm. He preached
the old-fashioned religion OF
hell-fire for sinners before
joining up more than thirty
years ago with a white
haired little Scotch prophet
from Australia, the one and
only John Alexander DoWie' owl
Dowie, calling himself the ne,
first Apostle Of the LORD
and the reincarnaticn OF the
Prophet Elijah, founded Zion
City and ruled it with
heavy hand. Smoking, swear,
ing, dancing, short skirts and
the use Of face powder or
cosmetics was a sin to be
severely punished. He was IS
the most picturesque OF all
the prophets that have come
storming along in the past
three-quarters Of a century,
this undersized, pompous ex-
horter with a full snow-whlte
beard that fell to his waist,
brilliant blue eyes, rosy
cheeks and great head
crowned by snow-white hair
which drifted to his shoul-
ders.
He was a picture worth
looking at as he stood up in
the pulpit to denounce the
devil and all his works and
thunder against the wicked
ness of cities.

Killarney Legends

Ancient legends hover like
ghosts about the lovely sap
phire lakes in their emerald
hills. st. Patrick, the story
goes, climbed to the top Of
the tallest mountain over
looking Killarney water,
stretched his hand forth
and blessed it.
Of the three lakes, Lough
Tore, the middle, is famous
for the rock Of Colleen
Bawn. From that grim
rock, the Irish believe, the
wicked Danny Man flung
the fair Lilly of Killarney to
her doom in the waters be-
low. On the lower lake is
the castle of Ross, the old
stronghold of the O'DOnog-
hues. Of one of the islands,
Innisfallen, Thomas Moore
sang a pretty song. There,
too, is Muckross Abbey,
founded by the Franciscan
Fathers five hundred years
ago.
They are not joyous lakes,
the Lakes of Killarney, but
the isles they hold are the
lovelier for their tears and,

the sun appears. -

doctors, school teachers, journ-
alists, engineers?
For years their parents have
struggled to keep them IN
school; have scrimped and sac
rificed, in many cases incurring
debts which they will never be
able to discharge, that their
children might have a better
chance.
Nearly always that sacrifice
was gladly made. But whether
it was or not, the children HAD
to 60 to school, education in
most of our States being COM
pulSory.
An Expensive Crop
Nor were the parents the
only ones who did double duty
to see those youngsters through
school. Every taxpayer also
anted up. The whole American
nation digs down into its pocket
for education. Our graduates
are our most expensive crop.
And what do we get in return
for this vast expenditure?
What do. the youngsters
themselves get?
We, and they, should get a
lot of personal satisfaction.
We should get brighter years
ahead, more ease for weary
Mother and Dad, more pride
and joy and wider interests in
each hardworked home.
We should get a buster and
better nation. More progress
in each community. More help
for the sick and the weak and
oppressed. .... .....
And the youngsters them
selves should get their chance.
A chance to work as soon as
they leave the campus, before
their eagerness goes stale. A
chance to marry when loves at
flood tide. A chance to fight
in those noble cruSades which,
they have been told. await them
on the human battle line. A
