Party members, have not shown
themselves as Communists, but re.

workers, and it stands to reason that
with such a policy they could not
get the workers into the Party.
Farrell Picture Typical
The situation in Farrell Is only one
of the most vivid pictures Of the work

situation in Farrell and on the basis
of it initiate concrete struggle

it is really carried out.

75a6 of People in One
Valley in Arizona
Working on Relief
(By a Farmer Correspondent

(By a Farmer Correspondent :,
DUNCAN, Ariz.-As l have been
reader OF the Daily Worker for four
years and have written news to the
Daily" know it is the only paper
that tells the truth.
In this valley three quarters of the
people are working on relief at $2.4O
per day and most of the farmers
can't meet their taxes and debts and
are losing their homes. Everything
is getting worse all the time. Any
working man that votes the old
party ticket or the old Socialist
Party ticket is just the same.
I am q farmer, 81 years old and
made enough farming to live without
working for 200 years, yet I have
got nothing but my eyes opened, and
have had them opened for 80 years.

will be Communist and then the
workers will be free and can live and
be happy.

SUGGESTS THAT HATHAWAY'S
ARTICLES BE PUT IN PAMPHLET
FORM

oIOIlA, NIX
Comrade Hathaway:
I think your article on why join
the Communist Party is material not
only timely, but which should long
ago have been published
Some time ago a group of us who
recently joined the Party, discussing
the pamphlets used for mass distribu-
ton, were OF the opinion that the
contents were fiat" all repetitions
OF each other. without wasting
much words I suggest that these ar
ticles referred to above should be
put into pamphlet form, to be sold
at one cent a copy. A pamphlet of
this type is ideal for canyassing.
A decided improvement is the more
simple terms, though there is yet
room for Improvement. Perhaps also
certain passages pertaining to the
Party's activity be emphasized. An
xious to see this pamphlet and its
reception by the workers. I am yours
comradely.

Bankers Are Taking
Farms One by One
by a Farmer Correspondent)


NIOTA, Tenn.-In the county I
live in, I have tried to start a farm
movement. Some haven't paid their
taxes in two and three years, and the
insurance company and bankers are
taking the farms away from them
one by one. Thousands of people
have had their life savings and farms
taken away from them.
When all the henchmen get SIS,
then they will cut the wages on the
C.W.A jobs so the ones that really
need the money will have to work 4
or times as long to get the same
money as the favored few did when
the C.W.A. work first opened up. OF
course, they will have lots Of excuses,
but know their racket.

Vaudeville Show
UShers Cut to $40
(By Worker Correspondent

BROOKLYN, N. Y.-Previous to
the code, ushers were receiving S14
and SIS a week. They worked about
81 hours, sometimes more. When
the blanket code came into effect a
few months ago, ushers received a
standard level wage of SIS a week.
Now that the new code came in
(last week., the ushers on the
Springer-Cocalis Circuit were cut
to $40 a week and the doormen and
the cashiers were also cut to the
minimum wage requirements of the
code.
1t seems that they are using the
code as an excuse to cut wages.
They are living up to the letter of
the law and nothing can be done.
The ushers aren't organized and
are helpless, and if they do make
complaint they run the risk of
losing their job. They have nobody
to back them up.
