Especial to the Dali, Worker,

BRIDGEPORT, Conn, Aug. 12.-
Tomorrow mornings picketing will
be crucial for the relief workers
strike, here, begun officially last
Friday under the auspices of the
Relief Workers Union.
The size of the picket line on a
Monday morning is extremely i'm
portant in every strike. But it is
even more SO in this case when men
working on a split-week basis will
arrive at the job who had not been
working on Friday, the day the
strike was declared.
The men are making as theii
main demand a $12 cash minimum
for all relief workers at the rate of
80 cents an hour. The majority of
the workers are getting $3.50 q
week in scrip and box of food.
However, rent, gas and light are
deducted from the miserable scrip
payment
1000 Now On Strike
Almost LOGO are out, with eXpec-
tations that another thousand will
join this week. (The figure of 1000
in Fridays Daily Worker was an
error. The two thousand referred
to a demonstration near the City
Hall.)
Only a part of this crowd were
strikers. An open-air mass meet
ing, held at washington Park Sat
urday, ratified the final prepara-
tons for the extension of the strike.
Jasper McLevy, Socialist Mayor of
the city, is doing his best to break
the strike. His full support is being
thrown to Edward Leake, a Socialist
official of the now defunct Unem-
ployed Workers League. Leake, as

Worker stated, has called upon the
workers to scab.

DEARTH REPORTS
Head of A. A. A. Admits
Secret Govt. Survey
of Shortage

NEW YORK. A Federal
nationwide investigation into
the possibility of a food short
age has been revealed for the
first time by A.A.A. Admin
istrator Chester B. Davis.
Speaking at Great Falls, at
Montana farmers fair, Davis re-
vealed that the government has for
some time been secretly checking
on the country's food supply in
view Of the tremendous destruction
Of crops by the Roosevelt acreage
reduction program and the record
drought.
He characterized these investiga-
tons as "the most extensive ever
undertaken in this country"
This admission confirms the early
reports printed in the Daily Worker
Of record breaking declines in all
surpluses and farm crop reserves
which confront the population with
the possibility Of a serious food
shortage and the certainty Of swift
rises in the prices Of every day
food necessities.
Low Milk Record
The corn crop Is now officially
admitted to be the lowest since
1894, with the corn supply less than
so per cent of normal. This situa-
ton is intensified as result Of
the fact that more than 25 per
cent Of the corn crop was destroyed
last year by the Roosevelt govern
ment through the A. A. A. acreage
reduction contracts.
Rapidly rising prices for eggs.
sugar, milk, bread. corn, cotton and
other farm products are forecast by
government officials.
Milk production per COW is the
lowest on record, with total milk
production far below the normal"
Egg production is at least 10 per
cent below last year, with the
potato crop more than 5000 900
bushels below the short crop of last
year,
Profiteering Seen
Wheat production is expected TO
90 below so per cent Of last years
crop.
Despite all government talk about
prohteering. food spectators are
making millions every day as the
markets leap upward on the news
of the growing shortage and in
tense need in the cities Big Wall
Street monopolies like the Borden
Milk company, the Corn Products
Refining, and others are planning
to cash in on their inventories and
on the rising prices.
1t is expected that the food
shortages will soon be reflected in
all city retail markets.
