What's Doing in the Workers
Schools of the L. S.

A feature of the summer term will
be a course in Principles of Conmu-
nism specially adjusted to meet the
needs of those who are active in the
Election Campaign, so that they will
be able to carry on more effective
and convincing agitation among the
workers, and with the rising tide of
strikes throughout the state and
county, will be more able to assume
the leadership in the developing
class struggles.
Many inquiries have already been
received about the courses intro
duced for children to be given dur
ing the daytime, and it is expected
that a large number of proletarian
parents will take advantage of the
school to give their children real
working class viewpoint. The classes
for children include History and
Science, Drawing and Illustrating,
and Dramatics.
Although the Summer Term will
not include several subjects given
during the winter, the basic courses
in Principles of Communism, Marx
ian Economics, and Teachers Train
ing are listed. Besides, two new
courses in Russian History and
Pioneer Leaders Training have been
added.

Employees of
Protest Firing and De-
mand End of Petty
Abuses

NEW YORK-Eleven employees
Of the Macsulay Co., 381 Fourth
Ave, walked out this morning in
the first strike in the book publish
ing industry on record in the United
States.
They struck following a series Of
abuses by the company officers
which eliminated with the dis
charge last Friday Of Miss Dorothy
Runner, a member of the book
keeping staff who had been active
in organizing the workers of the
Macauley office.
The office struggle came to q. head
Two weeks ago, when the employees
presented the following list of de-
mands to the company offices:
l. All abuse and tyranny on the
part Of the employers must stop.
z. Employees must be permitted
the use of sufficient electric light.
5. The installation of electric
fans in warm weather.
4. Employees absent because of
illness for a period I'D to ten DAYS
should receive full pay.
D. No discharge without either
two weeks notice or one weeks
salary.
3. Workers employed by the
company for year or longer should
receive two weeks vacation.
When these demands were pre-
sented, the workers stated that I'M
less they we're granted they would
walk out. Under this pressure, the
company agreed to all except the
two-week vacation demand.
Last week the company dis
charged Miss Rimmer. Immediately
the workers, meeting together, de-
cided that this dismissal was an act
of retaliation against the entire Of
flee staff, and particularly against
Miss Rimmer, whose activities in
the office had been instrumental in
organizing the workers. They asked
her reinstatement, and when it was
refused they went out on strike.
The entire action is being led by
the Book Section of the Office
Workers Union.
kilograms to the company ask
ing for the granting of the workers
demands and the cessation of the
office abuses have been sent to the
Macauley Co. by number of out
standing writer's, including Robert
M. Coates, author of THE Outlaw
Years" and other books; Grace
Lumpkin, author of ITO Make My
Bread; Matthew Josephson, whose
most recent volume is THE Robber
Barons'; Horace Gregory, poet and
critic; Henry Hart, John l.. Spivak,

so now the daughters are being
taken care of by means of the
city's moronic foresight. The city
Of Detroit, with the customary
graft, is in the red light business.
Girls, for a fee in the proper
hands, may ask for and receive
a very Misunderstanding per-
nit that entities them to become
public prostitutes, semi-profes-
sional if they are on the streets,
professional if they have an adj
dress. By encouraging prostitu-
ton, the city welfare department
finds that it can reduce it's relief
rolls; the city health department
is very glad to co-operate-for a
fee. No wonder Detroit is proud
of the fact that it can say It has
only $4,000 families on its relief
rolls.
Unlike the State of Michigan,
which limits the number Of retail
liquor stores in Detroit to 5000,
the city of Detroit places no limit
on the number Of prostitutes it
permits. AS a result, from Crosse
Pointe to Dearborn, the city is
flooded with 'teen-age girls ring
ing door-bells just as any house
toulouse sales campaign manager
would have them do.
CRISIS HITS DETROIT
The bursting of Detroit's bub-
BILE did not occur overnight, even
though the sight Of scores of
never completed office buildings
and apartment houses stand like
tombstones in the city's skyline.
From 1929 to 1882 the bubble
shriveled; the wholesale bank
failures early in 1888 put the fin
ishing, explosive touch to Detroit's
balloon-hke growth. Workers
were dispossessed by thousands;
the thousands of persons made
homeless were workers families.
This accounts for the numbers of
girls between the ages of nine and
fifteen who are homeless now.
Some Of them have found their
parents; but most of them will
move into the city's department
Of prostitution. Any night they
can be seen in downtown Detroit,
slipping in and out Of beer par
Tors, lowering in the shadows of
allays, and whispering together in
the all-night movie houses on
Woodward Ave.
The few pennies they are able
to earn are tossed at them on the
floors Of beer joints, crap rooms,
and vacant buildings. Most of
them are too young to be prosti-
tutes with a health department
permit yet, but in the empty
houses and dark apartment build
ings they are taught to circum-
vent their age for pennies, nickles
and dimes. In Darkroom beer
joints they strip off their clothes,
go through a few childish mo-

Library
Established

One of the greatest achievements
of the school is the establishment
of library, which is only six
months old and yet has been able
to gather sufficient books and perio-
ideals to enable all students to use
the library for studying. Also, the
students making reports have been
able to borrow books over a weeks
time. The establishment of success
full branches in the steel regions has
been reported in this column before.
For the next year the Chicago
Workers Schools plans to move its
main branch to the North Side and
expand its branches and work in
general.
A conference is being called to
discuss this question with represen-
tatfves of all mass organizations on
Sunday, June "a, at IL am. at 209
w. North Avenue.
Outstanding among the proposals
that will be made by the Executive
Committee is the plan to turn the
central branch of the Chicago
schools into a school to train in
structors and furnish material.
