Very Few Get Vacations
Messengers are not entitled to
vacations with pay unless they are
over 81 years of age. Since the
majority of the messengers are
under that age, very few Of them
receive any vacation. This lack of
any rest is not conducive to the
health of young boys who work the
year round in all kinds of weather.
These are some Of the conditions
under which thousands of mes
sengers throughout the country
work. When the boys rebel against
their exploitation, they are intimi-
dated and threatened with firing.
When they begin to organize for
better conditions, they are trans
ferred to other Offices.
Despite this sort of intimidation,
the messengers, disguised with their
conditions, have formed their own
organization, and their militancy
has already gained certain conces-
sions for them from the companies.
The Telegraph Messengers Union is
constantly growing, and is rallying
the messengers in the fight against
the terrible conditions. At present
messengers are picketing two West
ern Union Offices, one at 1440
Broadway, the other at 9th st.
and Egth Ave, and are demand
ing a minimum wage Of SIS for a
40 hour week, the recognition of
the union, and the reinstatement of
all messengers fired for organiza-
tional activities.
The next article will describe
the fight of the messengers to or
ganiZe their own rank and file
controlled organization, their
delegations to the code hearings
In Washington, and the strike
situation in which they particle
pated.

were served a plate of goulash
which stank. They serve you slop
and expect you to stand for it.
Then if you kick they call you an
agitator or a tro1blemaker, when
you fight for your rights.
Five of us got together and de-
cided on a plan of action, and they
made me the spokesman. We tried
to organize the men. The five of
us struck. 1t was a spontaneous
affair; we tried to get the rest out,
but We didn't succeed. heard
some of these people, a German
element, were picked up from the
Bowery. They have no fight in
them, they are the lumpen prole-
tariat, and they crawl on their bel
lies and are satisfied to live on
slop.
Hamilton Federman, who is the
boss's son, planted a stool-pigeon
alongside of me, and this stool
pigeon said he was not satisfied with
the food, SO this rat says we have
to burn up the cottages and shoot
the boss, cut the telephone wires
and destroy the cars, so I said I
didn't agree with him, and it won't
get you anywhere. I know the Com
munists don't believe in individual
istic terrorism, so had nothing
more to do with this fellow. When
we kicked about the food the boss's
son fires us, and tells us to get off
the grounds of the camp.
We called in state trooper who,
by the way, was sympathetic to the
workers, because he told us that
the food that was served the state
troopers was bad, so they kicked
and then they got better food. The
state troopers get $50 per month in
wages.
The boss Federman paid me a
dollar for two days work, the other
fellows received two and five dol
lars In proportion to the days they
worked. The state trooper escorted
us out to the highway, some of the
fellows didn't have enough money
to get back to New York. I had
just enough money to get back. 1

Conditions Under Which Messengers
Work Led to Formation of TN. U.
BY PHILIP RANDOLPH

One of the worst conditions with
which the messengers have to con-
tend is the burden of idle time"
The boys must sit in the Offices and
wait for their turn to deliver mes
sage. Many times, when business
Slackens, the messages come in very
slowly, and the boys are forced to
wait for hours without making a
cent. Although they are wearing
their uniforms, and are therefore
supposedly working, they do not re-
ceive even a minimum wage. If
business happens to be slow for a
week, the messengers salary for
that week is drastically lessened.
When it is considered that the boys
barely average So even at best, what
the problem of idle time" means to
them can well be imagined.
Messengers work on the average
between 40 and 48 hours a week
During busy periods they must work
overtime regardless of their wishes
During holidays, boys are sent out
to solicit holiday greetings, for which
time they are not paid. They are
used to canvass and solicit these
greetings in order to secure bust
ness for the company This dis
agreeable task is forced on them
with the threat of being put on the
reserve" list or being transferred,
if they fail to obtain the messages.
The Western Union messengers
must buy brown, high-top shoes
which can be used on the job only.
These shoes are not practical for
other wear. If a messenger works
but a short while, he has on his
hands a pair of shoes which he paid
for out of his own meager earnings,
and for which he has no further
use. Boys who use bicycles must
buy them out Of their own wages
and pay for their upkeep them
selves. No provision is made by the
companies for the protection of
these bicycles, and many are stolen.
In case Of accident the messenger
is not compensated for the damaged

By a Worker Correspondent

BROOKLYN, N. VI tried to
get job in a camp in the country,
by answering an advertisement in
the Morning American. Before 1
got the job, the boss, Mr.. FEEDER
man, questioned me a lot; he asked
me if I was an agitator, Commu-
mist or I. w. w. He said he had
trouble with his men last year, but
didn't say why.
Mr.. Federman has his Office at
59th st. and Broadway. He owns
Camp Navajo and Camp Bryn
Mawr, the former a boys camp and
the latter girls camp.
The boss, Federman, makes a con-
tract which says I was to receive
$50 month with good meals and
laundry, clean bedding, and 1 was
supposed to work in the laundry.
but when I got there it was diff
ferent story. He broke the contract,
didn't keep any of his promises.
Mr.. F'edermans son wanted me to
use blood stained blanket to cover
myself with. I made a kick against
these conditions, so he asked me If
I was an agitator, and called me a
trouble maker, and said I wanted
to break things up. He finally gave
me a clean blanket, and I thought
everything would be o. K. That
same evening, last Friday, they
served the men with some chopped
meat and spaghetti. The meat
tasted bad, so only ate the spag-
hetti. They served us with oleo-
margarine, which had q terrible
smell, SO I went to bed hungry.
The cots were crowded in very
close together, there were no decent
places to wash yourself. The toilets
and sinks were filthy; all the men
were dissatisfied, but they seemed
to be afraid to act.
Saturday morning we had to get
up at 5:45 a. m. They served us
breakfast: oatmeal which was start
ing to get black, and they gave us
some eggs, which tasted terrible, and
they only allowed us on the aver
age Of two slices OF bread and oleo-
margarine. We had to work on an
empty stomach In the hot sun from
II to IA hours. At lunch time we
