IL
send their kids awav to school
built their homes and bought them
radios, so it is not at ali STRANGE -
that they should want the farmers
to fix up he. golf ground for them
FFhe Commercial club considers
this relief charity. For their in
formation we farmers say we have
done all the useful work to make
this country possible.
Our fault has been we have been
too charitable with you. The coun-
ty can take away our land if we
don't pay our taxes, the state will
toTeclose on our land just as ruth
lessly as any corporation, the gov
eminent thru their land banks
have foreclosed on farms Just the
same as any loan company. They
have even conscripted US to fight
In wars that were not owl own.
Now, if the government can con
script workers to kill then we de-
mand to conscript wealth that the
people might live.
We workers and farmers have
paid all the taxes and the govern
ment is run by the taxes we have
paid.
The government is responsible
FOR these conditions and the r. F.
C. is set up not to relieve suffer-
ing but to pacify workers who re-
fuse to starve and at the same
time to bolster up capitalism and
sape the hides of the capitalist
class a little longer. We farmers
nave been relieved of everything.
Now we are out to relieve you Of
what you have stolen from US.
Wherever you find the farmers
or workers have a fighting orga-
Aviation, there you will find relief
where there is no militant action
Oh the part of the workers and
farmers, there you will find no re-
lief.
Relief is administered in proper
ton to the amount of united mill
tant action by the workers.
In Chicago every family aver
ages $50 per month relief for food
and clothing. They have a pretty
good organization there.
Fellow farmers, do you know
that when the Plentywood Com
mercial club and old Jacks yes
men decided that the workers
should work out their relief on the
streets of Plentywood some of the
workers went to work without ask
ing "Who in hell are you?" Where
are these orders coming from -?
Who is this that is posing as oul
masters? The next thing you
know they will have us in chair
gang.
Rob Rookie, chief of police was
ordered by the Mayor, Carl Pet
erson, to chase out the slaves anC
while Bob don't care whether they
work or not, he likes to hold dowr
his own job so does as he is told
Here are some facts. If mos
farmers and workers got three
cents an hour for the amount Of
work they have done fighting this
= relief committee trying to make
them do their duty or get off the
job they would have what reliel
they have feceived paid for in full
Coming to town In truck loads
and being sent from one keymar
to another while your family il
anxiously waiting for you to ge
back with a few clothes or gro
ceries, is work that should b.
worth three cents an hour. You
all know by this time that old
Jack never lets his yes-men know
an hour before they meet. An'
then they talk about efficiency
amt that good?
| They tried to tell us how mucl
I clothing and the kind we were tt
wear. They tried to tell US hov
much food we were to- eat. The.
tried to tell us whether or not w
should have medical attention
Now they say we've got to fix VI
the golf grounds and the street
of Plentywood. Laugh then il
their face, don't take them ser
iously. You remember the stor,
of King Knute who thought tina
he could stop the tide of the oceai
from coming in by wave of hi
hand. Even though they look dig
nified remember jackass also look
dignified. Like Viggo said abou
the Judge: "They are all bunc
of buck passers."

Last year this same "Comica

This however, had one advan
