dustrial Union demand wage scales
ranging from 1895 to $60.72 a week.
Pietro Lucci, A. F. OF Il. fur rack
eteer, now out ON bail under a Fed
eral indictment for racketeering, sat
at Towards table as NR.A. labor adj
visor for the fur industry, despite the
workers vociferous objections to him.
"Lucci is racketeer," they
shouted, "take him out. We don't
want him."
Police officers will not stabilize
the industry, Joseph Winegratsky,
manager of the Fur Workers In
dustrial Union, part of the N. 7.

rushed to grab him.
"Officers keep order. We are
going ahead with out program"
Howard called out.
The workers shouted: "Shame,
shame, let the workers representa-
tive be heard"
Walter Keyser of the r. W. I. IT,,
rose and demanded, "that the work
ers be heard"
Again the workers delegation
called out: cts a damn shame.
We're starving and the N. r. A.
wants to raise our hours and cut
our wages"
Irving Bloom, war veteran, rep
resentative of the N. T. w. I. u.
informed Howard, before being
thrown out, that "the workers de-
mand the end of starvation The
workers backed him up, calling:
Shame, shame, on you bosses; 40
cents an hour, shame"
Demand To Hear Potash
Howard: Were not going ahead
until we have order"
Workers: Gwen have sorder'
when the workers are heard"
Officers: "Sit down"
Workers: what did we come
here for?"
Fur workers seated all over the
hall demanded that Howard hear
"our leader" Irving Potash, head
of the New York Department of

During the recess, James G.

ferred with the manufacturers.

severe scalp wound and concus-
sion as a result of the brawl. The
new supervisor of officials, Frank
Patrick, sent a coupe of his least
capable arbiters to handle the con-
test when everyone familiar with
the situation knew it would be
tough game. The officials assigned
to the match let the situation get
beyond their control by toferating
a lot of rough work early in the
game that should have called for
severe penalties. 1t would be unfair
to say that the magnates deliber-

pretty good case along those lines

Election Ticket in
Providence, R. |.
Has Been in Forefront
Of Textile Workers
Struggles

PROVIDENCE, r. T., Dec. is
James p. Reid, President of the Ma
tional Textile workers Union since
its inception and charter member
of the Communist Party Of the U. S.
A., is Communist candidate for rep
resentative Of the Ninth Representa-
tive District.
Conrade Reid has been identified
with every major struggle OF the
workers in this state since his early
youth. In the year of 1912 he was
elected to the above office on the
Socialist ticket.
A former textile worker, Comrade
Reid took an active part in many
strikes during the year of 1928, chief
of which was the Pawtucket Valley.
This strike soon spread to Paw
tucket, involving close to 10000 work.
ers. The National guard was mob
ilized to serve the mill owners and
break the strike by use of terror
against the militant workers on the
picket line, led by Reid, resulting in
the shooting of one of the strikers.
The present democratic admins
tration of this state has instituted
the G. w. A. starvation scheme of
relief" with interpretations all their
own. G. W. A. Gear Cody refused
to pay the men for rainy days, so
the Fright To Live Club" organized
demonstration of 1000 workers
who marched upon the state house
| to see the Governor, demanding
their pay.
The Communist Party program
on which Comrade Reid is running,
demands: State unemployed relief
as a step towards winning Federal
Unemployed Insurance at the ex-
pense of the employers and the
weekly plus $500 for each depend
emit to be paid to all unemployed
Government. Minimum Of $1,000
workers too old to work, women
workers during maternity and work
ers unable to work on account of
sickness or accident. Abolition of
forced Labor (relief). For Union
wages on all C. w. A. State and
city projects. AS the first step a
minimum wage of $500 weekly
| flor 80 hours with a guarantee Of
40 weeks work year.
All workers are urged TO work
| for the election of Cornrade Reid
and to vote for him on Election
day, December 21st.

tile workers as well as the cam

cousins. either. and it is very easy to
tame them even when they are rather
aged. They are sun worshipers. No
dreary, dark, cool woods for them. From
early dawn until shutdown, the gay
striped tribe are scampering about in
the sun.
Clever engineers, all Of them They
are never SO foolish as the prairie dog
or the woodchuck, who leave great
mounds Of earthworks before their front
door. 1t is one versed in the lore OF
nature who finds the gates to the chip
munk castle. Even after he finds an
entrance. he is not at all sure it is not
sealed up on the inside. Not one en-
trance. but several, with winding halls
several feet long and the final deep
entrance to the large room, Is the
scheme adopted by the chipmunks to
outwit their enemies.
How does the little excavator remove
all the dirt that must accumulate from
so much digging? If he carries it out
in his mouth, where does he dump II?
Some have decided he carries much OF
it away in his front paws. but the pouch
idea seems the only solution.
During the months of August. Sep
busy storing grain, nuts and seeds.
Meeting him on one Of his trips. you
are confident he has a double case Of
mumps. His cheeks are swollen three
times the size of his head. His gait
Is little slow and his speed on the
return trip shows how heavy the load
must have been. The sardine packer
must have taken lessons from the chip
munk. Not a crevice in the cheek
pouches is untitled. The larger nuts
are placed in first. With a paw he
pulls his elastic-like pocket open and
slows the nut as far back as he can
reach. The smaller nuts and grains
are tucked in with care. and even fresh
meat. wee birds and mice are packed
in among the green vegetables and ripe
berries. Inside his granaries. the har~
vester places his food in separate piles.
He never keeps perishable food with
his Winter supply. The expert mar
keter spreads the seeds which would
mold II placed in pile and the hard
shelled nuts are kept in the darkest
place. Fully three fourths Of a bushel
of gathered food has been taken out
Of one chipmunk'S storehouse.
When the arduous task Of storing the
Winters supplies is over. the 1ndustri-
Gus little fellow goes into seclusion.
Whether he eats much Of his food be-
fore his long nap or upon awakening
from it. we are not quite sure. He
comes gaily out Of his home as clipper
as May morning and Is in his court
ing clothes. His coat is bright and he
looks particularly well and happy. The
chipmunk maiden is as joyous as her
sutton. so it would seem that they had
not tasted too long.
The bride returns to her own domi-
cile or builds another apartment. she
has some assistance with the excava-
ton and Is aided IN lining the nursery.
The babies arrive in June or July
blind naked and forlorn for the first
few days. One month old, they are put
on a solid diet and grow rapidly.
Chipmunks organize glee clubs!
They hold concerts and can sing in
unison for some minutes, gay, rollick-
ing song.

planes travel faster than the winds, so
We might use the words, LAS fast as an
airplane," or to express the greatest
speed we couli think of, we might say,
AS fast as light Light waves travel
1856 900 miles per second, and nothing
else that we know of travels faster.
We may be glad that winds do not
blow so swiftly as light travels. If they
did, we might find ourselves In the
ocean lin no time"
When wind blows three or four miles
per hour, it is a gentle breeze; but
when it blows so or 10 miles per hour
we must watch out to keep our feet on
the ground.
Studies made of winds at different
heights seem to prove that the strong
est winds blow about r1ve miles above
the level of the sea. If wind is blow
ing 10 yards per second where you and
I walk around, it is likely to be blowing
40 yards per second four or five miles
above our heads.
To test the speed Of the wind, an in
strume1lt called the thermometer" Is
used. This instrument has cups
which are whirled around as the wind
blows. So many turns per minute
means that the wind is blowing a GER
tain number of miles per hour.
When the wind blows SIS miles per
hour, sailors say there is gale" At
90 miles per hour, they call it hurri-
cane.
>Tornadoes move over the land as fast
as 100 miles per hour, knocking down
houses barns or other buildings which
may be in the way.
No one knows exactly how fast the
air moves inside the funnel OF q tor
nado: but 1t is believed that it some
times whirls around 500 miles per hour.

"HE bedtime STORY rite Is observed
conscientiously in most mousse
holds. This last half hour be,
fore bedtime is eminently suited
to the quiet reading OF the old
fayorites. For most children want the
same stories over and over again and
hang breathlessly over the mothers
shoulder. awaiting the familiar words
and greeting them each time with the
same delight.
This repetition tends to bore the
narent who can't understand what fun
Il is for the child to hear the same
story or the same nursery rhyme SO
many times but it is by means OF tnls
repetition that children learn and, nav
ing learned, they get constant oe-
light in being assured that the WORDS
in their own heads and the "oroS III
the rhyme match exactly.
Lacking this repetition, at the chl!ds
own insistence, children do not readhy
memorize the stories and verses they
hear When the mother sits down with
a child and says, Now you repeat THIS
after me-" she gets no results whatever
Memorizirg takes place only when the
child's interest is real and unforceo.
Mrs. A E. B. is upset because her
child knows none CT the famlilar
nurscry rhymes. She views this as an
indication that her cnlid Is laC -As
some ability enjoyed by other children
After reading her letter one suspects
she has gone about this in the wrong
way robbing the rhymes Of their place
as entertainment and making them
seem like lessons.
Mrs. A. E. B. wants to know: DO
YOU think child Of 2 learns much
bv memorizing? I try to teach my
little girl nursery rhymes and she won't
repeat a thing I tell her to. My friends
have children of her age and they can
ali menorize stories. Those friends
think my child Is backward. but she
is as smart in other ways as children
of her own age. She talks. but will
never converse with strangers. She
only talks when she thinks no one Is
listening. What would you advise me
to do?"
You have a warped view Of the value
and meaning of nursery rhymes. They
are for the child's enjoyment. not as
. means Of showing on" Your In
sistence on the child's repeating the
rhymes after you and your effort to
thrust her forward in the company OF
strangers have resulted in excessive
ttmidity and q dislike for nursery
Hhymes.

YOUR BABY AND MINE
BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

Read to the child daily. Read the
same stories and the same rhymes, pro
vided she enjoys them. Never ask her
to repeat thing. Let her absorb these
stories because She enjoys them and Is
interested in them. Children memor1ze
very easily under those circumstances
It is an ability which is very often lost
as the child grows older. But merely
reading a thing over and over. or hear
ing it read repeatedly. is quite sufficient
to implant It in the childs mind with.
