DON'T FILE YOUR 'DAILIES"-
GIVE THEM AWAY
r,,.oof-1,,,, NJ

Comrade Editor:
The question has come up as to
whether workers should leave copies
of the Daily" and pamphlets in the
subway trains and other places where
workers congregate. A good many of
my acquaintance and friends buy
the Daily" and all the pamphlets,
read them, and then file them away
in their cellars. This seems foolish as
many workers should be introduced
to cur literature and the best way
of doing it, is to leave it where
workers may come across it.
1t was not so very long ago that I
knew very little about the movement
in spite of my claSs-consciousness
and I would know just as much now
if some comrade had not given me a
copy of the Daily" That single copy
has led me to become a subscriber to
your paper and made me a regular
visitor to the Workers Book Shop.
Please let me have your opinion.
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1933-10-21

(You answer the question yourself,
comrade, when you say you would
not have known more about the
movement, if someone had not hand
ed you copy of the Daily Worker.
The Daily Worker and all our litera-
ture should get into the hands of the
greatest possible number of workers.
1t is best to give the Daily Worker
and other literature directly to a
worker. If that is not possible, it
should be left in a place where work
ers congregate and are sure to find
it.-Editor.)

TAXES To STICK
IN ALEXANDRIA

A tentative budget for Alex
andria for 1884 submitted the
City Council last night by City
Manager Wallace Lawrence pro-
poses continuance of the present
tax rates and salary scales for
city employees. The employees were
cut 10 per cent last year.
The council will consider the
budget informally next Tuesday
night and set a date for a public
hearing.
Showing an increase of $4S,346
over this years budget, the tent
ative draft proposes total appro-
priations of $669,346 for next
year. Principal increases are $35-
528 for schools and $7,856 for
highway maintenance. Other de-
partments are little changed.
Savings expected through re-
cent repeal of the city dry law
are reflected in the jail appro-
priation, which is cut from $14,-
325 to $8,825, and for fees for the
commonwealth attorney and
clerk of courts for prohibition
cases, cut from $500 to $3.50.
The council received a prelim-
mary report from the Park and
Planning Commission for street
remaining and reelected Harry r.
Burke a member Of the commits
sion for five years. Councilman
L. c. Barley urged early action in
cleaning up the waterfront. Fed
eral assistance is being sought.

which show that motion pictures
can not only be satisfactorily tele-
vised, but have definite points
of superiority. One of these is
that the motion picture screen,
as a fiat surface. makes it easier
for pictures to be picked up by
television transmitters than
would be possible if several char
acters were moving about a
stage.
Pioneering in the field of pro-
ducing motion pictures for tele-
vision use, Castle Films is at
present designing films so that
they can be readily adapted for
this purpose According to Mr..
Castle, films now in process Of
production can be revised for
television presentation within
twenty-four hours.
Further indicating the prob
able use of motion pictures in
the field of television, recognition
has been accorded the medium

Arey Sees Progress
In Dairy Industry

Since 1909 when the first COM
mercial dairy plant opened in
North Carolina, the dairy indus
try has forged ahead with substan-
tial progress and has suffered less
during the past few years than
other farm projects in this State.
I'VE opened our first butter
plant or creamery for this State
in CASTOR County back in 1902"
says John Arey, dairy extension
specialist at State College. "This
event encouraged farmers to secure
a few extra cows to supply this
market with cream and the idea
spread into adjoining counties.
Since that time, Is creameries have
been established and numerous
other mix plants, ice cream fac
tories and cheese factories. Last
year $4,000 farmers sold nearly a
half million dollars worth of cream
to the creameries; Others sold about
$4,000 worth of milk to cheese
factories and still others sold about
100000 worth of milk to ice
cream plants"
Arey says the value of the milk
sold to city and town consumers
last year had a farm value of over
ten million dollars and he notes
that dairymen are learning how to
do better feeding, how to Gull out
their low-producing cows and how
to breed their stock according to
performance records.
Fewer cows are today produc-
ing more milk than a larger num-
Der did ten years ago. Back in
1919, for instance, only Fl percent
Of the dairy bulls were pure bred
animals. Today over s. percent
are pure breds. This has had a
resulting good effect in the kind
Of stock being raised at this time.
However, says the dairyman,
there is still plenty of room for
further improvement. What the|
holds will depend upon the
of dairymen to breed, feed
and weed successfully.
