This figure for the students Of
both senior and junior high di-

No figures for the colored

enrolment in the 81 schools of
the county to little over 5000

by a worker correspondent
MOLINE, I'LL am writing you
to let you know little Of what's
going on in Moline and vicinity.
The International Harvester Co.
recently moved their motor plant
down from Chicago. A great spiel
was made in the local press about
the advantageous location and other
ballyhoo.
An alert reader could see that
this is the policy Of decentrali8ing
industry in order to get cheaper
labor.
The Moline transient camp takes
men and puts them at cleaning the
city streets This is the only town
I know of where men are put on
the streets cleaning up. The Mayor
Of Moline says that this is saving
money for the taxpayers of Moline.
The Silvis Shops Of the r. I. rail-
road laid on 300 men indefinitely.
This was just after they had an
election to see if they should afil-
late with the A. F. of L. or stay in
the company union. The A. F.. of L.
won, and now the talk is that this
is behind the layoff at Silvis. The
real cause, however, is that the
bonds of the R. I. railroad are due
and in order to save money they
are cutting down operating expenses
so Wall Street can get its grab.

The ma iority of the workers here
are superstitious on the question of
wage cuts. They say, IF you talk
about q wage-cut, you will sure
enough get it in a hurry. The best
way is not to talk about it,
Prior to the panic, when a worker
would quit his job at Sparrows PIT,
the others would ask, How long
before you come back?" The COM
pany is clever in this way The
majority Of the bosses specialize in
seeming to be good fellows. In the
plant you will find representative
Of nearly every nationality. There
are many workers here who have
been betrayed in A. p. of L. strikes
There is a large bunch of strike
breakers who even brag about their
past activities. Cort, the general
manager, told the last meeting Of
company representatives that the
future looks very dark.
