GET NEW PIONEER" MAGAZINE FOR
A CHILD ON ITS End ANNIV ERSARY
May First Means Two Years of Publication; Is
10th Anniversary Of Young Pioneers

NEW YORK-May is the tenth
anniversary Of the Young Pioneers
of America, and the second birthday
of the New Pioneer Magazine. The
National Pioneer Bureau takes the
occasion Of this double festival to
point out that "the support of the
workers children for their magazine
has been tremendous
But many children whose fathers
are unemployed cannot send so cents
for a subscription. Shall these chill
dren be deprived of the New Pioneer?
The Bureaus statement continues:
"The greatest shortcoming is lack of
support from adult workers. On the
second birthday of the New Pioneer
we call on all adult workers to help
spread the magazine. We call on
them, and upon all workers clubs,
to send greetings, and to send sub
scriptions for these children. Rates
are SO cents year, 80 cents half
year. The address of the New Pho
neer is Post Office Box %, Station D,

history again, and then they send you
out to get a recommendation from
every place where you ever worked.
In some cases the workers wife also
has to get recommendations from
whatever place she worked.
A committee is sent to investigate
the workers economic conditions,
generally two or three months after
the application is made. If the COM
mittee thinks you need relief, they
give you a work card about a month
or six weeks after they investigate
Single and young workers are de-
MED all relief.
Relief Cut
Workers on relief were getting $3.50
a day, and Negro workers were get

some, very few, four days week,
The white workers were getting three,
four, and, in a few cases, five days
a week.
A while back the Welfare officials
moved to reduce the pay of the work
ers, in which case the workers threat
ened to strike. This movement, how

These are the usual vicious lies slop-
ped out by the politicians. What is
clear is that this bill has been passed
for the public welfare" which means
to the politicians the stopping of the
farmers struggles.
Burdens On Workers Affects Farmers
The farmer must realize that all
price fixing schemes which put the
burden on the worker will cut his
market and hurt him Immediately.
What must be done is to compel the
milk trusts to shell out part of their
huge profits. In 1882 BordenS made
nine million dollars net profit by cut
ting the farmers and its employees.
This pressure on the trusts can be
best eXerted by the combined forces
of the workers and farmers. The
farmers had an excellent opportunity
of doing this near Rochester during
their milk strike when the milk driv-
erS were threatening a strike against
a wage cut Of fifteen per cent They
could have caught the dealers be-
tween thumb and long finger and
won an immediate victory. Unfor-
tunately, the farmers led by business
men and bankers at meeting Of the
Legislature few weeks back gave the
drivers spokesman the horse laugh
when they explained that drivers
were only getting $35 a week. They
cried, eve farmers aren't making
anything" Now they can clearly see
that the drivers are caught in the
same door that they are. Working
together, under rank and file con-
troll, they can force thru their de-
mands and dictate their own terms.

Books Will Teach
Miners To Fight
CBy Mine Worker Correspondent

(By Mine Worker Correspondent
PREMIER, w. va.-Working con-
ditionS are very bad here. Every
body owes the company, some as high
as $24O. They just toll and try to
get out Of the hole they are in, but
instead they are going in deeper.
The mine runs 3 days a week. A
loader makes SOC car for little cars
and S0c for the big ones. Some load
6 big cars a day, and very few load
as high as little ones a day. I never
loaded over 7 yet, SO that makes $3.50
q day. But some men can load only
3, 4 or 5, and what do they make?
Day men get SO, $3.50, and $2.4O,
and how can they put up with it
1 don't see. But they continue to
carry their buckets to work. Some
OF these places around here are far
worse than here at the Premier.
The Salvation Army has control of
these peoples through the Red Cross
flour it distributes. Every house be-
longs to the company and there is
no place TO meet, and the workers
can never talk of their troubles. So
it is hard to organize them, and hard
to pull them out on strike. Some
Of them know what goes on in the
cities, but they are afraid to try to
do that way here.
I think we will have to print little
books like the Flight for Bread" and
pass them out amongst these w. Va.
people in Mcdowell County. II they
read it then it will upset their
stomachs to work under these kind

GAINS WON By
Mine STRIKERS
SPUR STRUGGLE
R elief Necessary to
Win In Pa.-Ohio
Mines Still Out

PTTTSBURGF. Pa, April IA -
More th2n G.009 miners have been in
s'olyad in the struggles in the soft
coal fields of Pennsylvania and Ohio
since the preparations for strike
struggles started, according TO reports
from the National Miners Union.
Many of these workers have returned
to work with definite gains registered.
The fight of the 1000 Terminal Coal
miners against pay in scrip which
was initiated by the N.MU. was VIC
torious. In the Powhattan mine a
strike involving 1900 workers result
ed in installing a miner checkweigh-
man elected by the men. BY this
gain, sentiment was created and q
movement started for a checkweigh-
men elected by the miners in other
mines in this region with successful
results. These struggles were car
ried on around the slogan Of the
April united front strike struggles.
In the Terminal mines where the
U.MW.A. leadership succeeded in
preventing the miners from joining
the struggle, the miners are now re-
acting against the leadership, and
their proposals and good opposition
movement is developing. In Avella
where over 1000 workers are still out
on strike for wage increases and
other local demands, and in other
sections where the strikers are still
out the miners ranks are sciid. The
immediate tasks are the winning of
the strikes which depends on the
solidarity Of all workers organiza-
tons. Funds for relief should be
sent Immediately to the N.M.U., 1925

The Pitcher Bill, at the same time,
holds a sharp axe over the head OF
the masses of city workers. Limiting
the milk supply will lead to a boost
in the retail price of milk The price
per quart will shoot up two or three
cents in city like New York But
the distributors will lose nothing. On
the contrary, the bill will give them
a better market. They will continue
getting a fair return on their in
vestment." The railroads will receive
the same freight rates. In this way
the politicians of New York State
follow the lead of Roosevelt who in
his Farm Relief scheme includes a
scheme whereby the professor is al
lowed to pass on his tax to the con-
sumer. The milk trusts will shove
additional expenses resulting from
the workings of the bill on the city
masses. And this holds true not
only of New York State but other
states. New Jersey politicians are
also talking of a price-fxing milk
bill.
The Pitcher Bill has been enacted
Gin the exercises of the police power
Of the State and its purposes gener-
ally are to protect the public health
and the public welfare" 1t is diff
f1cult to understand how the public
health will be protected by a bill
which will increase the price of milk
when hundreds of thousands Of chill
dren are suffering from malnutrition
because they get none or little milk.

BULLETIN.


ALBANY, N. Y, April lathe
new State Milk Control Board meet
ing yesterday set a bottom price for
milk for consumers. An agreement
following hearing, between the
big dairy farmers, the dealers and
Board members resulted in the de-
Gision that milk delivered to homes
must sell for no less than 10 cents
and bottled store milk for no less
than s cents. Grade A milk is to
be fixed at Is cents as the lowest
price. No limitation was placed on
possible price increases.
BY MOE BRAGIN
Governor Lehman, the great pro
ereSsive" has signed the Pitcher Bill
which fixes the price of milk to the
farmer and the cost to the consumer
lis first step was the appointment
Of rich farmer as the third men,
Der Of the prtce-f1xing board. The
other two members are Charles Bald
win, Commissioner Of Agriculture
and Or. T. Parran, State Health Com
missioner. Kenneth Fee, the third
member, will be given a salary OF
$500 while farmers are getting a
cent and a quarter for their milk.
There is not a single representative
Of the dirt farmers of the State on
this board, not single representa-
tive of the great consuming masses
Of the large cities. These three men
are interested in the farmers in the
same way that hawk IS in a flock
of hens.
This milk board has already issued
four orders. The first of these will
stabilize the price paid to farmers
by limiting the distribution of milk
to dealers who are already in the
business. This will be a heavy blow

BONANZA, Ark.-In this mining
community the unemployed do road
work for relief. Single men get one
day per week at $500 per day, and a
man with a family gets days per
week. Those that do not work get
direct relief of $500 per month and
48 pounds of Red Cross Flour. The
flour will be all gone the first of
May.
The miners are constantly talking
OF how sick they are of the John l..
