is not attending classes. For a lousy
few meals and the free camping place
donated by the New York Life Insur-
ance Company, there is no reason
why we can not have more time to
ourselves. The major part of the day
is spent in activities with groups in
which we have no interest.
We penriless women must buy soap,
Kotex, stamps and stationery. All
letters going out and coming in are
read by Miss Tinker, as we have seen
with our own eyes.
Inadequate Medical Facilities
There are no lights in Our cabins,
and after 10 pm. we are in pitch
darkness. Some girls are terrified by
mice. Those who are sick must grope
around for the toilet at night At
the suggestion of Miss Mills the girls
must take a police escort to go to the
toilets. We cannot even attend our
sick room-mates in the darkness. The
nearest doctor and hospital is 10 miles
away. An ambulance takes one and
one-half hours to come and go.
With 200 girls here on an area not
larger than two small city blocks
square, we feel dreadfully congested
and -wracked by the continuous
chatter. There is not single corner
of privacy. One-half of the area is
occupied by the closely placed cabins,
the other half is a baseball field on
which the sun burns all day and
which is hard to get at at night with
out a searchlight. In such situa-
ton we actually feel as if we are in
crowded Coney Island rather than in
the country-except for the few trees
that are sparsely sprinkled among our
cabins.
NOTE-Tomorrow the Daily
Worker will continue its story ex-
posing the women's labor camp.
The writer will describe the forcible
eviction of some of the women for
! complaining about the food.

breakfast is such a long time from
lunch, we have to make the most of
it, and leave the table with stareny

RED Tape to Get Milk
Only 10 girls are considered anemic
enough to receive milk, and this by
special red tape. Many of the girls
are too indignant to apply. Girls who
have been out of work for at least
two years, who are nervous wrecks,
who have eaten poorly enough in the
city, must ask that milk be given
them as special favor.
Well, we nearly had strike against
the food the other day, but I'll tell
about that later. Besides the major
grievance Of food, we have the griev-
anee of evictions. At least five girls
a day are sent back to N. Y. on the
least pretext. The most usual one

STAGE AND SCREEN
"Horizon," Amkino 'TuIkie
Opens Today At Acme
Theatre

Horizon (The Wandering Jew
the Soviet talkie, will open today at
the Acme Theatre for a weeks en-
gagefnent. This film, banned in Ger
many, was acclaimed throughout the
rest of Europe. The film depicts WV
idly old czarist Russia with its blood
ritual cases, pogroms and oppression.
1t mirrors the lives of many Jewish
immigrants to America. In a grip
ping climax it recreates the bloody
terror and hooliganism of the Black
Hundred pogroms.

tains many scenes taken in the U. s..

the shoe workers, to be pre-
sented through their militant
unions at the hearings. These
codes represent the program
of struggle around which the
unions will rally the workers to de-
feat the starvation codes of the
bosses
The Conference will be the most
determined, eutspoken voice of the
thousands Of workers of New York
City against the starvation codes of
the bosses and the government, which
are now being imposed on the work
ers with the signing of the recent
cotton textile code.
The struggles which will develop
for the demands raised by the work
ers will be the real answer to the
Recovery slavery Act. They will
defeat the attempts of the bosses to
drive down the conditions of the
workers, already reduced to hun
ger level by the continued attacks Of
the employers during the crisis.
For Right to Choose Own Union
The conference will take up con-
cretely the fight for the right of
workers to belong to unions OF their
own choice, which, while stated on
paper in the Recovery Act, has al
ready been proven false. This is seen
in the company union schemes of the
bosses which are now being put over
in many industries, and the brazen
attacks Of the A. F. of L. officials,
sanctioned and encouraged by the
bosses and government against the
militant unions of the workers.
Report On Textile Hearing
The Provisional Committee for the
Defense of the Trade Unions will
meet on Friday night to approve the
final plans for the conference. 1t is
expected that among the reports to
be given at the Conference there
will be report on the presentation
of the code of the textile workers at
the hearings in Washington by the
representative of the National Tex
tile Workers Union and a report on
the fur situation All organizations
which have not yet elected delegates
to the conference are urged to be
represented. All workers are invited
to attend the sessions of the con-
ference at Webster Hall this Satur-
day, July Is.

CAMP TERRA, N. Y.-Camp Terra is
