Thousands Line Up Like Cattle Looking for
Jobs, But Only Few Are Hired; Wages
Are Cut by Application Of Code

The exploitation in the Stockyards
was always terrible. but now, after
the acceptance Of the ~ R. A., it is
worse. In American literature we
have two masterpieces about the
Stockyards, Robert Herrick's THE
Diary of an American Citizen and
Upton Sinclair's 1.-THE Jungle" Rob-
ert Herrick depicts, in his book, a
Stockyards officer who served on
the jury which convicted the Hay
market martyrs and how this very
"hero" bought the judge and the
entire city council and state legisla-
lures in order to rob the people so
that he may build the railroads for
the Stockyards.
Upton Sinclair acquaints us with
the Lithuanian worker, Jurgas, and
his cousin, Mary. Both are being
milled between the rocks of ex-
ploitation. We see in their por-
trayed lives how their bodies are
being destroyed and thinned in or
der to enrich the Swifts and Ar
mours. In them we see the real hell
of the slaughter houses.

Stop Miners Dance
for 7. U. Delegates
Gallup, NM, Mayor
Uses NRA as Excuse
for Ban

GALLUP, N. Mex, Aug. 23.-Au-
thorlties of this city refused permits
sion to the National Miners Union
here to hold dance at Kitchens
Opera House to raise funds to send a
miners delegation to the Trade Union
Conference For United Action open
ing in Cleveland on August 26th.
Reasons given for this action by
Mayor H. T. Watson, in large ads
published in the local press, are that
"the proponents of this dance are
against the present form Of govern
ment, against the President of the
United States, against the National
Recovery Act. :"
Mayor Watson is also the official
doctor at the Gallup american Mine,
and receives a monthly salary Of $500
from this company.
1t is apparent that the NRA is be-
ing used with a vengeance by the
mine companies here and their tools
for suppressing militant unions.
Nevertheless, the National Miners
Union has built a new union local
in Gallup, with miners from the Gal
American mine, The largest mine
here, joining the new union.
An immediate struggle, including
the calling of a strike If necessary,
will be waged by the National Miners
Union here, to force the mine COM
panies to grant sharply improved
working conditions to the miners
here.
Workers in the Gallup mine fields
are sending delegates to the Cleve-
land Conference despite hostile action
by the city authorities.

is the New Deal" The workers re-
alize that this is a fraud.
Even If a few workers are taken
on, they are kept few days and
again laid off with the promise that
they will be re-employed in few
weeks. There is more work in the
Stockyards than during the spring
The main cause is initiation. Food
prices have increased between 90 and
30 per cent and will go up higher
Some work is being done for cold
storage; for stock. The warehouses
are being filled up.
Nature of Stockyards Industry
The Stockyares industry is big. 1t
does not demand any skill. Very
few skilled butchers are needed.
They need mostly healthy and strong
workers, in order to handle the on
sheep or hog Thousands are slaugh-
tered at the same time, and fifty
operations are performed. One
strikes the animal on the head, the
second opens up, the third one skins,
the fourth lifts, etc.
There is no industry in where the
workers are so friendly and realize
their common interests as in the
Stockyards, despite the great num-
Der of different races employed. The
Stockyards employ Polish, Spanish,
Croatian, Ukrainian, Negro. Hunga-
rian and Lithuanian workers.
