Republicans Change Shirt,
Become Democrats for Job

PLENTYWOOD.-The ex-banker
and insurance agent Fred Mork,
has been appointed postmaster for
Plentywood.
How it was done should be of
quite some interest to farmers and
workers.
Up until the Roosevelt elections
of 1882, Mork and his friends were
steadfast Republicans. But when
they found that the tide was turn
ing, that the bread baskets were
floating away, they changed their
political opinion like one charges
a shirt. Suddenly they became
democrats.
Last Sunday, the old stand-pat
democrats gathered to agree upon
a nomination for postmaster to be
sent to Postmaster General rarely,
when in walked the old republicans
to take part in the nomination pro-
ceedings.
Since these now democratic bread
basket hunters were in the ma

GOOD PROFIT MADE.
BY DACMAR COOP.
STORE IN YEAR 1893.
Stockholders Meet Thurs
day, March 20 at 2 p. m.

DAGMAR, Mont, March 1S-
The Farmers Cooperative Store
here has sent out its financial
statement for the year 1888. The
total net profit for the last de-
preston year is $S,76O.71.
This brings the total of undivided
profits up to $12,755.56; not a bad
record for a farmers enterprise at
that.
Cash sales during the past year
have reached the sum of $64, 769.-
43, amounting to more than 5000
per day; a pretty good showing for
a little inland town.
Although the Dagmar Store is
freighting all its goods in and out,
they have been able to sell goods
below prices charged in other little
towns. AS result many people,
and not only farmers but town
people also, drive out of their way
to get to the store where they can
make the best deal.
The annual meeting of the stock
holders will take place on Tuesday,
March 20, at 2 p. m. Three direc-
tors will be elected.

Troops, Planes Sent
Against Ala. Miners
General Strike Voted by
10000 Miners in
Locals

BIRMINGHAM, Ala.-In order
to crush general strike voted by
10000 miners in their locals, three
companies of the Alabama Ma
tional Guard, machine guns, gas
bombs, aeroplanes, rifles and bay
onets, along with a cavalry unit
are being transported into Walker
county.
Eight thousand are already on
strike. They are sending delega-
tons to other mines to pull them
out. In their strike the miners
are defying the orders of the Off
cials Of the U. M. w. A. as well
as the rulings of the district labor
board.
Brigadier General John C. Par
sons admits that "No violence has
been reported in the strike area"
nevertheless he gave orders to the
troops to march into Walker coun-
ty.
The miners are rebelling against
the 11-hour day with eight hours
pay and being forced to buy their
own supplies. "The commissary
prices are robbery without a pis-
toll" the miners declare. They are
now getting SO cents a ton with
supplies furnished, and 48 to 81
cents where they must buy their
own supplies.
In the little Cahaba field where
the miners have been ON strike for
over two weeks, Negro and white
miners disarmed Is company thugs
whom the sheriff had promised to
deputize, and ordered them back
to Birmingham.
The mine units of the Commu-
mist Party are issuing leaflets call
ing for the spread of the strike;
and rank and file control. They
demand full recognition of the
union and pledge themselves to
fight against the company union.
A basic day rate of S3.40 for
outside workers, and $40 for in
side labor, 81 cents per ton, with
a minimum of four cars per day;
abolition of contracting; equal pay
for equal work, and the right Of
Negro miners to any job; an g.
hour day; re-installing of free
transportation to work; larger
bath houses; reduction in high
commissary prices and also lower
powder prices are the demands put
forward by the communists.

SEED-FEED LOANS.
ONLY If YOU CUT
YOUR PRODUCTION
Farmers Who do May Get
Loan From SIS to
$3.50

PLENTYWOOD.-"In summer
they give you some money for
planting and In the fall for plow-
ing UNDER" one farmer stated
some time ago. And that is more
true now than it ever was before.
Only those farmers who "plow un.
DER, who reduce their crops in the
face of starving millions, who
comply with AAA, this smart out
grow of brains trust, only those
farmers will be allowed to make
applications for feed and seed
loans.
Any farmer who wants to Sc
cure a loan must obtain a state
ment from the county production
council that he is complying with
the Agricultural Adjustment Act
and that he does not want to vio-
late any of the provisions.
$4O,000,OOO have been appro-
priated for feed and seed loans and
farmers "may make applications
any time now" But only one out
of the 40 millions is allowed to be
spent for feed for livestock
E. A. Draper has been placed in
charge of the local office in
Plentywood and Attorney A. C.
Erickson has been hired to "assist"
farmers in making out applica-
tions.
Only if a farmer cannot obtain
loan elsewhere will he be allowed
to make application with this Of
flee. To establish evidence to that
effect he has to make application
first to the Production Credit AS
ISOLATION, at Wolf Point. If he is
rejected his application will be ac-
ceptable at the Plentywood office
onlv of course if he complies with
the A. A. A.
In this way Roosevelt is trying
to force the small and impover-
ished farmers into line. He tells
them: If you want loan show me
first that you are poor; well You
are, now tell me that you are go
ing to cut your production and
never mird the millions that are
as poor or still poorer than YOU
and have nothing to eat, and
give you some money now to

By a Farmer Correspondent

~ q "a H1SA Correspondent
HILLTOWN, Pa.-During Ma
tlonal Defense Week, there was
meeting of one of the locals of the
United Farmers Protective Asso-
citation. At this meeting, the farm
ers discussed the war preparations
Of Roosevelt. The farmers were
unanimous in their anti-war sent1-
ment, SO they sent resolution to
the President On National Defense
Week. They said, "Mr. President,
if your National Defense Week is
to find out how soon you can
launch an imperialist war, we wish
to inform you that we are opposed
to such a war;"
Also:
"That as producers of food we
will refuse to support an imperial
list war;" and "the workers and
farmers are still paying for the
last war;" while 1--WE know who
profits from such wars"
There is widespread opposition
to war among the farmers in
Pennsylvania. 1t is necessary that
we unite with other organizations
opposed to war in a broad united
front against war and fascism. The
farmers are ready for such action.

FRONT CONFERENCE IS
BLOW AT INJUNCTION
RELIEF PROGRAM
TO Be TRIED IN
NORTHWEST AREA
MinnesOta's, Kansas, Da-
kotas' Farmers, Stranded
Families Get First Taste

WASHINGTON-The movement
to make peasants out of farmers
and to put unemployed and the
STRANDED families" on small plots
of land, will first be "tried'' in the
drouth stricken areas of the North
west, Relief Administrator Hop
kins revealed here.
Arrangements have been COM
pleted to inaugurate President
RcOsevelt's 'rew relief program"
IS the government calls it, Hop
kins explained. The Dakotas and
Minnesota arc Kansas will be the
first states to get a taste of this
program.
In these areas the CWA was
completely discontinued March 6.
1t Stems, however, that certain
other work projects are being Sc
lected by the states to provide re-
lief in order to make some sort
of transition to the new program.
Details of the plan are to be
worked out by each state according
to information given later.
John E. Williams, secretary Of
the state emergency relief commit
tee of North Dakota, states that
this phase of the plan would differ
from the CWA in that only those
needing relief would be given
work. Being unemployed will not
be sufficient qualification for re-
ceiving aid under the new set-up.
It was admitted by Hopkins the
CWA rehabilitation thus far has
been heaviest in rural areas. Cities
he said, will not be so much af-
fected until the end Of March.
