senators and representatives like to talk about other things than bills, laws. measures, roads, bridges, and so forth. Occasionally, the infor- nal gatherings between sessions brings q little talk of football and there are two men In particular who take the floor at such times Senator Frank Bergin of New Haven and Representative Ludlow P. Melius of Warren, both All Americans in 1898 and 1893 re- spectively from Princeton and Union colleges.

cially strong men known for their
fighting exploits were drafted into
the area whenever disturbances were
expected.
On Monday morning, while it was
still dark, a truck with straw sacks
and mattresses was being unloaded
at the police-station. An hour later
two special detachments to be kept
in readiness from 10 noon arrived.
These young men were to accompany
the local officers on their routine
beats in order to get acquainted with
the locality.
AS trucks with the men arrived,
{ h e forty-two-year-old policeman
Wuellner went to the window. He
watched his young colleagues some
what curiously as they jumped light
ly from the lorries. From one car
several large cases apparently of
considerable weight were being car
ried into the house. Wuellner took
small notice of these, for the first
men were already arriving in the
guard room upstairs There were
young, healthy faces bearing signs of
certain nervous tension similar to
that Wuellner had often noticed dur
ing the war, when fresh reserves
from home were moving into the
front lines at night for the first time.
Front-funk--it used to be called: q
curious mixture of curiosity and fear,
mingled with certain degree of
love Of the sensational.
In the corridor rang the incisive
voice of an officer. The men at once
clicked their heels. The officer in
command of the special reserves -
Captain Won Malzahn, a compare
lively young man, in well-tsilored,
dark acknowledgement into the
room Of the lieutenant in command.

''Disorderly Conduct"
Replaces HilIy Rent
Strike Claw" i'm Court

NEW YORK.-'Disorderly conduct
charges resumed its place as the main
weapon supplied by the capitalist
courts to the landlords of New York
to enable them continuing robbing
tenants and breaking their strikes
The Hilly ruling, "outlawing" rent
strikes received with jubilation by
the landlords has met setback after
setback due to mass resistance and
the admission from courts under the
IRE Of the lawyers of the New York
District OF the International Labor
Defense, that the ruling is not law
but an opinion.
An example of what is happening
IS in the case of two tenants arrested
while pickle: ing at 1866 Washington
Ave. and charged with Conspiracy
and "intimidating tenants" The
charges are related TO the Hilly rul-
ing. In court, Monday, before Magis-
trate Walsh at 16l and Bronx Ave.
the charge was changed to "disord-
erly conduct" when Drainow tt1s In
ternational Labor Defense lawyer
challenged the other charges.

Richest n. Y. Sea Resort
Has Typical Southern Jim
Crow "Back Yard" Section

gated jim-crow existence, second
only to that inflicted ON the Negroes
in the South. II is a typical South
ern Negro section in miniature-un-
painted shacks along muddy, I'M
paved streets, Negro children running
around ragged, barefoot. Within the
homes are bare of furniture, except
for cots on which to lay ones weary
bones. There is no electricity. Only
kerosene lamps. Life here is as prim-
tive as in the days before the "tech-
nical revolution"
In SheepShead Bay also you find
all the forces OF reformism and reac-
ton to thwart the work Of organ
izing this most oppressed section OF
the American working class. There
is a Negro Democratic Club, which
provides jim-crow democracy" of
billiard balls and crap games, and
Negro churches which encourage sub
mission and tell of a world hereafter
where Negroes are the equal Of
whites"
But the backyard, Mr.. Green and
Mr.. Brown, will not long remain the
quiet place it seems. The Commu-
mist Party is on the job.
The Atlantic Ocean carresSes the
stone walks in front of the palGtial
mansions of Nh. Green and Mr..
Brown. But one day, another ocean,
a mighty ocean Of Negro and white
masses, united in common fight, will
engulf them and their palatial man
sions, and Sheepshead Bay, the back
yard, will move in front.

Vote Days Pay to
Back Metal Strike

NEW YORK.-At an enthusiastic
meeting of the Silver and HoIloware
Section Of the Steel and Metal Work
ers Industrial Union that was held
en- Wednesday. April II, at 35 E. 18th
St, after hearing q report Of the Ex-
ecutive Board on the Cromwell strike,
the members unanimously voted to
give enc days wages for the support
Of the strike.
This manifestation of the feeling
of the members shows that the
strikers with the support of the whole
membership are determined to carry
on the strike until all of the de-
mands OF the strikers are met by
the bosses.
The bosses of the Cromwell and
Colonial shops are ready to take back
all of the strikers without discrimi-
nation, but insist upon retaining a
number of Scabs. The workers de-
cided to carry on the strike until
every scab is fired from the shop.
The Unon calls upon all members
and sympathizers to help carry on
mass picketirg in front of the shops
40 Elizabeth Street, New York, and
thus help bring the strike to a VIC
torious conclusion.

EXAMINATION OF
HARLEM CHILDREN
EXPOSES MISERY

NEW YORK-OVer 200 children
and 100 parents, most of them Ne
groes, attended a Children's Party
and Medical Examination in Har-
lem, Lafayette Hall, on April g. This
party was arranged by the Workers
International Relief, in cooperation
with the Provisional Committee
Against Child Misery. The medical
examination OF the children. which
was carried on by the doctors and
nurses Of the medical units of the
Workers International Relief, dis
closed the fact that the majority of
the children were undernourished
and suffered from the effects of mall
nutrition.
Out OF one group of "a children
examined, IL children needed imme-
diate medical attention and hospital
service suffering from ricketts,, after
effects of pneumonia, bronchitis,
heart trouble, diseased tonsils, etc.
The investigations as to the con-
diticns in the homes, showed clearly
how the Negro families in Harlem,
particularly the unemployed, are
crowded together in unsanitary, I'M
heated flats. and are forced to sleep
three and four in bed, and five
and six in one room.
There was an enthusiastic response
on the part of the parents and chill
dren present to the appeal made by
Pauline Rogers OF the Workers In
ternational Relief for a continuation
of the splendid work which has been
started in Harlem and for the Or
ganization of parents and children
for the establishment of a Workers
and Children's Center in Harlem and
in other parts Of the city in the
very near future.

Call Conference At
Columbia On Negro
Student Problems

NEW YORK.-The Conference on
Negro Student Problems, which will
be held at Columbia University on
April Is, 16 and II, marks the first
attempt to solve the many problems
confronting Negro students.
The National Student League ini-
tiated the conference and has made
every effort to arouse student inter
est SO that the broadest body of stu
dent opinion will be represented. The
resulting resolutions and subsequent
activities should establish a basis for
united action against academic sup
preston.
THE conference should lay the
basis for united action of both Negro
and white students to be directed
against the administrative bodies
and the social, economic and polit-
ical forces responsible for suppress
sion and retrenchment," said Clyde
Johnson Of the National Studs-25
League.

NEW YORK.-Manhatt Beach,

Food Workers Union
Celebration Tonight

NEW YORK.-The Food Workers
Industrial Union will celebrate its
Third Anniversary with a concert
and ball on Friday, April 18th, at
Palm Gardens, sos w. Sind ST. The
proceeds OF this Third Anniversary
are to be used for the maintenance
Of its official organ, the FOOD
WORKER,
The FOOD WORKER has ap-
peared irregularly in the past, and, in
the Foltis-Fischer struggle, the lack
Of regular news organ has been
felt severely. Due to the fact that
the organization has been success
full in carrying on demonstrations in
front of the stores and has been
picketing constantly, the company
was denied an injunction.
