ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS
Rupture

Mrs. 7. v, Lincoln PIX, Mich
AIthough YOU do not describe your
condition fully, you probably have
q r7Int1Ire. If the diagnosis is cor
rect. by no means waste your money
and do possible injury to yourself
bv buying any fake rupture cures or
trusses,
Without exception, all mail order
cures and treatments Of rupture
are 100 per cent fakes and all their
promises are pure bunk. The only
wav a rupture can be cured is by
operation, although a wen-f1ttlng
truss which costs from 81 to S. at
the most, will support the rupture
and prevent it from getting larger
and also prevent complications.
However, operation is the treatment
of choice in most cases.
It is urgent that people be told
about the fake mail order houses
which promise to cure ruptures,
cancer, tuberculosis and other all
ments. These companies and their
products are absolute fakes and
their only aim is to separate work
ers from money. At the same time
the various salves, belts and medt-
cines which they sell may do dam
age which cannot be repaired. Above
all, it is wise to remember two
things:
1. Do not make diagnosis on
yourself.
2. II a diagnosis is made by q
physician. secure competent medi-
cal advice and do not deal with
quackS or mail order houses.

NEW BEDFORD, Mass.-Im not
a textile worker. I'm only house
wife, but I heard about the strike.
They are going pretty good. The
New Bedford textile mills are not
closed down completely but I think
IN a few days more they will be
shut down completely.
The most of the mills is partly
shut, and they tried to close the
rest of them. The Firestone mill
closed today at 1870 a. m. The
bosses here are very strong, but the
spirit of the workers is still stronger.
They held a meeting at the Brook
lawn Park and they announced that
from the meeting they should go
straight to the Firestone mill in or

der to get the workers out, but po-
icemen went first 10 advise the
bosses, and they are 50 afraid of
the workers that they closed before
the workers reached the mill.
Now, about the local U. T. w and
A. F. L. leaders. The workers think
that the leaders are doing their best
about the bosses taking action
against the workers. I believe that
when a worker is dubbed, and some
sent to jail, it is the best and most
militant workers who are victimized.
So far as the Daily Worker is
concerned, it is the best paper for
me and the workers are beginning
to realize that the Daily Worker is
the only paper that tells the truth.
They don't care much for the local
paper.

Some time ago a decision was
adopted to do away with large Party
units, and in my opinion this was
a sound decision. I don't know if
it still holds good, or whether it
has been changed, as some Of the
Sections, especially Section IA of
New York, OF which I am a mem
Der is practicing the old method
again. The purpose of my letter is
to bring out the disadvantages of a
large unit, and let the Organize
ton Commission drawn its conclu-
sions, and if necessary remedy the
situation.
am an organizer of a unit con-
sisting Of forty members. This, in
my opinion, is much too large. The
disadvantages of a unit of this size
are the following; first, the unit
needs a specially large place for its
meetings. Second, the payment of
dues takes too much time, as it is
difficult for the financial secretary
to attend to all the members. Third,
it is impossible to have proper
discussion at unit meeting, be-
cause if the conrade that leads the
discussion takes even twenty min
utes (Which Is an insufficient
amount of time for an important
diseussion) and if each comrade
should speak only five minutes, it
takes two hours for a discussion.
Fourth, in conducting business
meetings, comrades ask questions,
explana tons have to be given, etc.,
and since there are so many COM
rades in the unit one can imagine
that the questions are numerous
and much time is required to answer
them Fifth, in large unit, some
comrades permit themselves to be
absent, thinking that since the
membership is so large, there will
be enough present at the meeting
without them. and their absence
will not be noticed. There are many
other disadvantages in large unit,
but I think the few mentioned are
enough to Judge whether a large
unit is beneficial for the Party or
not.

This question has been discussed
many times at our Conventions, and

pointed out. Since Comrade A. r.

things he can do to remedy the
situation.
First, he should discuss the ques-

then in the unit, and install the
captain system. This will elinli-

Where The Rub Lies
Cracking down" on violators
remains the announced policy Of

But the cnatching appears to

Visitors to Washington bring
circumstantial stories of open

rub.
Under AAA thousands of corn
hog payments have been held up
because farmers "make mistakes
on wholesale scale in certifying
their previous yields.
Yet no prosecutions have been
reported; not a single charge of
fraud has been sworn out. The
neighbors of those who "made
mistakes" either made the same
mistakes themselves. or are will

One of the lessons of past gov

next to impossible to enforce a
law or a regulation against pub
lie sentiment.
