Welcome Daily Worker
BY a Worker Correspondent

DENISON, TeXas.-T was in Sher-
man, Texas, nine miles from here,
population of 11,O00 a few days
ago. Some of the workers in Sher-
man are talking Of organizing. I
showed them a copy of the Daily
Worker and they all thought it was
fine.
I was over in Bryant, Okla, a
couple of weeks ago. The condi-
tons there have been terrible. The
workers and farmers there have
surely been busy organizing for the
past three months, but they are
not quite clear as to the lines to
fight on yet. Their lines are o. K.
on the relief problems. They elect
delegates or committees to go and
demand relief for those that can't
get it from the burocratic relief Of
ficials.
They are, as an organization,
against the Bankhead Bill, and are
proposing one of their own, as fol-
lows: IS bales of cotton tax free,
then graduated tax of $3.50 on
the 18th bale, IS on the 18th, $40
on the 18th, etc. Double tax after
the 18th bale. was at a delegate
meeting and from the number of
members called out by each dele
gate present they are about 1000
strong already.
1 am personally acquainted with
several of the organizers of this
ont 0ol1ad h o,-io
Farmers and Laborers. They have
no charter yet, and one Of the or
ganizers that I spoke to and he
feels their movement would do we'll
to go over in a body to the Ma
tional Unemployment Council. I
gave them as much literature as
could while over there. I gave them
some N. U. C. literature, and few
copies Of the Daily Worker.
EDITORS NOTE:-While the
bill proposed by the farmers men,
toned in this report may be a
little bit better than the Bank
head Bill, the whole idea of a
tax on producing cotton is bas-
ically wrong, and only helps the
rich farmers and the spectators.
These Farmers should get behind
the farmers emergency relief bill,
which puts the relief burden
squarely on the shoulders of the
bosses and bankers government.

Due to our inexperience, however,
We had many shortcomings. Firstly,
our shop nucleus was not properly
organized. We did not work collec-
lively, and we failed to approach
the workers politically. We did not
bring any of the Negro workers into
our revolutionary organizations, and
we failed to bring a sufficient num-
Der of workers into the Party.

Made National Beauty Spot
Florida Everglades, Set Aside as Park Area, Will Open
Tropical Wonderland to Americans and
Visitors From Other Countries.

Approval by congress of the vast
Everglades area In Florida as a ma
tlonal park opened the way for de-
yelopment of an interestingly tropi-
cal project which will rank in size
and significance along with the Vel
lowstone and Yosemite attractions.
Known by most persons only as
the home of the Seminole Indians
and as ideal territory for hunting
and fishing, the Everglades park
holds a strange lure for the adven-
turer and the student of nature, once
they have forced their way into the
pristine interior.
The park area is about twice the
size of Rhode Island. embracing more
than 1000 square miles. II offers an
incidentally valuable study of plant
and animal life in a distinctly trop-
ical environment.
1t sounds like fairyland fiction TO
say that the Everglades contain or
chids so large that they have to be
carried by four men, but that is the
report of a scientist, DIR. John h.
Small, head curator Of the New York
Botanical garden, and other respon-
slble persons who have made their
way into this exotic jungle e
Doctor Small. whose interest in the
Everglades began more than thirty
years ago, found orchids there with
stems 10 feet long, on which wer"
growing as many as 1000 flowers.
More than % varieties OF orchids
grow there. Many carloads of them
have been shipped TO northern mar
kets during the past few years. 1t
Is estimated that some of the plants
are 500 years old.
A large part of this area consists
of thousands of islands and lakes
and winding waterways teeming with
many kinds of fish. One enthusiasts.
tic explorer, impressed with the
heavily carpeted lands, said 10000
persons could march through there
and leave no footprints.
Mangrove trees there, many of
which reach a height Of 100 feet,
have a strange beauty. There is a
forest of them which covers 100
square miles. CoconutS, of course,
are plentiful, and it is an odd fact
that oysters grow on trees in this
area. The current In the rising and
falling salt water streams flows in
such a ann as to make 1t possible

the surface roots of the mangrove
trees.
Besides mangroves. this ~little-ex-
plored expanse of forest and water
ways includes maple, ash, sweet gum,
oak, magnolia, pine, cypress, gumbo-
limbo, mahogany. lignum vitae and
other species of trees. These, to-
gether with the rubber trees and
many kinds of strong trailing vines,
form such a dense living barrier that
many parts of the Everglades are
almost impenetrable.
Thousands of huge sea turtles,
weighing from 100 to 300 pounds.
come ashore at night to lay their
eggs In the sands and leave them
there TO hatch. Natives have made
extensive commercial use of both
the turtles and the eggs, for one tur-
tie lays from $50 to 200 eggs. The
turtles are caught as they move be-
tween the water and their nests.
Hunters hide until a turtle is sew
eral feet away from the water. then
they rush up, flop her over on her
back and leave her padding the air
until daylight. when they return and
take their prey to market.
