\ TOWN BUILDER


 One of the great agencies for the restoration of prosperity Is publicity. The buying public must be told what to buy and the price. The average buyer is too busy to go out and look up bargains, so he relies on his home paper to bring this knowledge to him along with the neishborhood news.
 The home merchant may stop advertising. but it is a step in re treat, as the city merchant will not stop and the mail order house will not stop spreading printers ink.
 If the farmer has horse for sale, how is he to broadcast the news? If over the radio, few would listen in; if by postal card the expense would be prohibitive: if by phone the loss of time would be great. The home paper will tell everybody for miles .arounl for ten cents or quarter may be.
 Home merchants who advertise in the home paper, help to sus- tain a home enterprise. They help build the town by attracting buy CTS. The non-advertiser hovers in the background and picks up busi-

CLEANUP WEEK RECEIVES
 WIDESPREAD ATTENTION

During the past week it has been very noticeable how the citi- zens of Nome have taken to Clean up Week. On almost every piece of property in town, men have been at work raking, scraping. and collecting the debris to be hauled away by the Nome City truck.
 Front Street has been getting q brushing and cleaning during the nights of the past week It ap- pears that some places however, have not as yet been cleaned up. Several places where debris and a winters collection of garbage etc, still remain should be cleaned up. The sanitary point is the greatest argument. Don't allow too much waste to accumulate and lay around your property it is not healthy. Besides that, it would be a bril- liant idea to do your part toward helping clean up the town and give it better appearance.

hungry is not some unfortunate accident" 1t is
typical of the whole way in which the capitalist
class looks upon the problem of caring for those
whom they fling into the streets when profits can
no longer be wrung from them.
Does not Roosevelt order the destruction of
millions OF pounds of meat, millions Of acres of
wheat, millions of bales of cotton?
Do not the respectable capitalists hold in
their warehouses millions of dollars worth Of goods
fer lack of which the masses are suffering?
The Communist Party declares that the crisis
can be solved by aboshing the claims Of these para
sites to this socially necessary goods by expro-
priating this wealth, by setting up Workers and
Farmers Government in place of the present Wall
Street government.
Right now, part of the fight against the CAPT
tal-sS system, the Communist Party calls for
nationwide mobilization in support of the National
Congress to meet at Washington January to l.

tally to the jobless by sending hundreds of dele

Unemployment Insurance which will gather at
Washington on January ST to voice the needs of
the workers of America for relief and unemploy-

1t is the unflinching leadership which the Com

BOSSES SEEK
NEGRO VOTE
Mississippi Tenants Told
to Go to Polls for
Cut in Crops

JACKSON, Miss, Dec. 14.-Ruling
class terror, usually directed to-
wards preventing Southern Negroes
from voting, is today being used in
this State to mobilize Negro tenants
and share troopers to vote for the
continuation of the destruction Of
cotton acreage in the referendum
being held today on the Bankhead
Cotton Reduction Act.
Participation of certain Negroes
in the referendum is advocated both
by the big planters and the local
agents of the New Deal adnlinistra-
ton in the fear that the Act will be
repudiated by the small white grow
ers and tenant farmers whose con-
ditions have greatly worsened since
its enactment. While Negro tenant
farmers and troopers are by far the
worst sufferers under the cotton
reduction plan, those who are al
lowed to vote will be supervised by
the planters and their agents, with
the purpose Of preventing any ex-
preston at the polls of their hos
tility to the New Deal" program Of
plundering the small growers in the
interests of the rich planters.
Many militant Negro troopers and
small farmers are, however, reported
to be planning to vote in today's
referendum, both as a means Of
protesting the cotton reduction rob-
berry, and of breaking through the
ruling class terror which bars them
from the polls in regular elections.
