DAILY Worker Washington Bureau)
WASHINGTON, May 9. - Repre-
sentative John w. Mccormack
Democrat of Massachusetts,, chair
man of the Special Committee to
Investigate Un-American Activi-
ties" the body created on March 2C
to succeed the Dickstein Nazi Propa-
ganda Investigating Committee, told
the Daily Worker correspondent to-
day that "the American Illustrated
News" the latest Hitler official prop
uganda to reach thsi country, will be
part of the evidence to be reviewed
by his committee.
Complimentary copies of the new
illustrated News" which was
printed in and mailed from Berlin
were sent last week to a selected list
of United States Senators and Rep
resentatiVeS.
Insofar as it is humanity possible
and the $4,000 appropriation per-
n1its of, the committee intends to
ascertain the facts for the benefit Of
our own country and our own peo-
pie, whatever the facts may be" the
Massachusetts Congressman told the
Daily Worker, when asked for COM
ment on the Hitler Governments
propaganda venture.
Technically elaborate and full Of
anti Semitic and "anti Marxist'
barbs, the News" edited by Kar,
Bergman of Berlin, is bold move
to enroll the Congressmen's support
for the Hitler Government and fol
Nazism generally in the Nazi cam
paign against "Bolshevism.
Mccormack, who had not yet seer
Joseph Freeman's ably written ex-
pose of the new Hitler appeal in to-
days Daily Worker, explained that
he considered it best not to COM
ment at this time because such pub
locations will be matters of evidence
before his committee.
The Mccormack Committee is not
expected to open public hearings be-
fore another ten days or two weeks
The new investigating body, in adj
dition to Mccormack, consists of
Samuel Dickstein, Vice Chairman
Democrat of New York City;
Charles Kramer, Democrat of Cali
fornia; Charles Weideman, Demo
crat of Michigan; U. S. Guyer, Re
publican of Kansas; Thomas A. Jen-

by a Worker Correspondent
ENSLEY, Ala just want to
inform you of a little of what is
going on in Birmingham.
Yesterday about 5000 or 5000
ore miners, members of the IN
ternational Union walked out on
strike in support of their de-
mands; for recognition of the
union; higher wages and shorter
hours and so now the steel plant
is expecting to come out Mon
day. The company has carried
beds and carts in the plant for
the scabs to stay in and work
when the strike breaks out.
I tell you the truth. The work
ers has got blood in the eyes. All
they need is the Communist
Party to continue to push them
on, so this is all. I will let you
know the early part of next week
how the plant turns out.

TENTS UP IN CAPITAL

WASHINGTON, May g. Tents
were set up today. nearly in the
shadow of the Capitol Dome, in pre-
paration for ton1tHrows first regis
trations of the Veterans National
Rank and File convention delegates,
close to 1000 of whom have already
arrived. The convention, which will
meet on May Is or II in Fort Hunt,
Va, will act on the veterans three
point program-it includes payment
of the bonus-and the Workers IN
employment and Social Insurance
Bill CHR. 1899.
Twenty-seven Negro and white
Pittsburgh veterans, led by Fred
Carreno, arrived here this morning.
Fifty more are expected by freight.
They announced that they distrib-
uted 5000 copies of their own news
paper, "Us Veterans" along the
road.
G. B. Cowan, of Cleveland, Ohio,
is expected tonight or early tomor-
row morning.
Though Louis Howe, political adj
visor and secretary to President
Roosevelt, and a special rank and
file committee drew up a joint
statement upon the completion of
the arrangements for the veterans
camp, the Administration backed
down and referred the matter to the
Federal Relief officials.
Thereupon the Relief Officials pre-
sented statement to the committee
which included clause declaring
that this is the last time the Ad-
ministration will promise care and
maintenance for such meetings.
The Veterans Committee, which
consisted of James ]. Beatty,
George Altman, the welI-known
bonuseer, who led the 1882 Port
land, Oregon contingent, and
Harold HickerSon, secretary-treas-
urer of the National Rank and
File Committee, refused to sign
this statement. They declared that
the future prohibition does not
come within the province of the
discussions and that when we
come to that bridge we'll cross it,"
Hickerson's subsequent announce
ment that mo understanding was
reached" contradicted printed re-
ports of an agreement between
the veterans and the Hopkins
staff.
Other conventions have elected
committees but we have actually
succeeded in placing the complete
control and management of the
camp in the hands of the veterans
themselves" Hickerson told the
Daily Worker.
The registration will start at 8
O'Clock tomorrow morning at Con-
stitution Avenue and John Marshall
Place.

OVERRIDE. P. RYAN
Estimate That 10000
to $4,000 Are Out
Especial to the Daily Worker)

SAN FRANCISCO, May 9.
Shipping was at a stand
still here today following a
strike of between 10000 and
$4,000 longshoremen in the
West coast ports. The strike
is affecting all ports from
Canada to Mexico.
The men walked out despite a
telegram from Senator Wagner and
an appeal of Joseph P. Ryan, pres
ident of the International Long
shoremen's Association, urging the
lockers not to strike. President
Roosevelt's Mediation Board also
moved to halt the walk-out, but
was unsuccessful.
A strike committee which was set
up before the longshoremen struck
decided to broaden itself and to in
clude representatives from all docks
totalling $50.
Picketing Of the docks was or
gained this morning at mass
meeting attended by 1900 longshore-
men.
So far no ships have been loaded
in this port. The S. S. City of
Los Angeles, locked at the Matson
Line pier is preparing to house
scabs. There are many Communists
and militants among the strikers
urging rank and file control of the
situation.

SEATTLE, Wash, May 9-Pacific
coast longshoremen struck here this
morning. The men walked out de-
spite orders from Joseph P. Ryan,
President of the International Long
shoremen's Association, that the
lockers should not strike.
The strikers are demanding 81 an
hour and a 36-hour week, in place
of the IS cents an hour and the

return to work.
The strikers went back to the
docks in an orderly manner under

n1ittee, declaring that they will
strengthen their ranks and continue
their fight to better their conditions.
Meanwhile over 100 longshoremen

FRANCES DRAKE
BY JULIET SHELBY

One evening in Paris a beau
tiful and famous French wom-
an gave an elaborate dinner
party. Her dining room was
permeated by the fresh, fern
like scent of geraniums. In
each finger bowl floated a
single geranium blossom. Her
guests were entranced by their
hostess ingenuity and praised
her choice of flowers while
they dipped their fingers and
gently wiped them. Much to
their surprise and delight the
same rich flower perfume lin
gered on them!
It was in this beautifully
staged manner that a rare and
lovely eau de cologne was in
troduced to a world of fashion.
Each finger bowl had been
filled with a cool, refreshing
cologne of true geranium scent.
The same fragrance had been
sprayed into the air and so
genuine was its essence that
her guests believed it ema-
mated from the flowers that dec

for diminutiveness and the de-

literally cuddled the dog into
smaller compass, so small in
fact that it has been difficult
for the public to take the dog

The chief precaution as re-

is concerned with the matter Of
heat. Accustomed to a warm
climate, the chihuahua has in

Dieting FOR Sake
OF Beauty
BY ANN HARDING"

I believe that the best form
of dieting Is to eat anything
you like, in moderation.
OF course, it is wise to sub
stitute berries or stewed fruits
for richer desserts. No whipped
cream on them, either.
Another very important detail
is to remain on your feet after
eating, for at least fifteen
minutes.
Never give in to that i'm.
pulse to lie down just after a
meal.
find that it helps one to cut
down on the amount of food
if one concentrates on having
things attractively served.
Even the simplest of foods
are appetizing if they are
garnished effectively.
A point about eating that
applies more to beauty than to
weight is to refrain from eat
ing when very tired. Food
cannot properly digest when
one is fatigued.
I always drink a quart Of
milk, eat raisins with it, after
a tedious day at the studio.
This is particularly a good
plan in hot weather, for it is
kind to the stomach.
Moreover, every woman would
be better off as to weight and
complexion if she. would adopt
my habit of taking only liquids
during one day each week.
