tional strengthening of the collec-
tive farms, and a new influx of in
dividual farmers into the collectives.
Despite the difficulties caused by
drought, the number of districts
harvested in the present year is not
less than last years, while the plan
of grain deliveries has been fulfilled
with much greater success. This
shows the enormous strength of the
collective farms. A collective group
possessing modern technique and
conducting a planned economy can
much easier overcome all difficulties
than any individual farmer. In the
sphere of commodity turnover this
year is marked by the growth and
improvement of the organization of
Soviet trade.
THE central feature of our ac-
tivity is the satisfaction of the needs
of the workers and peasants and
the systematic raising Of the ma
terial and cultural level of their
life. The year 1884 shows great
achievements in this respect, but
this is only an insignificant part of
that which must and will be done.
In all the branches of life it is
the Soviets who are the organizers.
The SoYiets change the face of the
country, its towns, settlements, and
village. The Soviets are the organ
izers of the revolutionary order in
industry and trade. The Soviets
earnestly care for the life of the
worker, the peasant and the Soviet
intellectual.
1.-THE october Revolution is
young; it is only seventeen years
old. Enormous work has already
been done, but much still is not
yet performed. The country looks
forward boldly and confidently. Ma
terial resources have increased, and
the people who have grown up are
ever more tirelessly and efficieHAy,
with great initiative, organizing the
socialist life of our population, one
hundred and seventy MILL ons
strong. The Communist Party and
Soviet power have trained a gen.
Grafton of revolutionaries and
heroes firm as steel, a people loyal
to the teachings of Marx, Engels,
Lenin and Stain. A country hav-
ing such a people, such Party and
such leaders can be tranquil about
its fate. It's resources and pos
sibilities are inexhaustible. It's
frontiers are invincible, its land
sacred and inviolable"

1913 in 1922. Another six or seven
per cent had been cashed in, so that
in all one-fourth OF the outstanding
industrial policies had been given up
each year. Of course, the agents
have been busily gathering in new
victims, but the total of industrial
policies outstanding had fallen from

I'm finishing one more brilliant

There Is no other path to happi-

McLevy Reelected

BRIDGEPORT, Conn, Nov. T.
Almost the entire city ticket of the
Socialist Party was elected to Of
flee as the vote for McLevy was
recorded at 1850, 1000 more than
Governor Cross received in this city.
Three Socialist State Senators
and two Socialist Representatives
were, elected for the first time to
the State Legislature.
McLevy's vote this year however,
is 5000 less than the $4,000 vote
which elected him Mayor last year.
The Communist Party vote is Of
ficially recorded for the city as be-
ing IT'S, twenty-five less than last
year. However, the Socialist Labor
Party, which this year occupied
the same place on the ballot where
the Communists were last year,
suddenly found themselves with
1000 votes without having waged
any campaign at all. 1t is con-
sidered that many of these votes
were intended as Communist
votes.

scab is known to be working in
Paterson.
A picket line, estimated at about
1000, converged on the Standard
Bleachery at Rutherford today when
news reached strike headquarters of
work being done. Trucks with pick
cts came from Paterson, Passaic
and Lodi. The owners refused to
permit a committee of workers to
go into the shop and investigate
if silk was being worked. A large
sign at the front stated that only
cotton was being bleached.
Workers of three shops report
that Anthony Ammirato, president
of the Paterson dyers local, while
speaking before their shop meetings,
expressed himself in favor of settle
ment with individual shops. Such
action, now it is pointed out, would
weaken the strike ranks and the
militant elements are opposing it.

DR.. W.E.FITCHT TALKS
ON MINERAL WATER
Tells Why 1t Is Often Helpful
for Rheumatic" Aches
and Pains
EUROPEAN SCIENTISTS
CONFIRM OPINION

Recently William Edward Fitch.
M. d., member of the International
Society Of Medical Mythology and
author OF that comprehensive book
Mineral Waters of the United States
and American Spas" spoke as follows
on q program over the National
Broadcasting System.
Drinking a mineral water is not
like drinking an ordinary water, for
III addition to the virtues and thera-
peutic value Of the water itself, the
combined minerals, some Of which are
IN such infinitesimal proportions as
almost to defy mans limited power of
analysis, produce systemic changes
which affect disease profoundly. -.
In Europe, of course, mineral water
treatment has been known for thou
sands Of years, and is universally ac-
eepted. -. | am happy to have con-
tributed in a small way to the spread
OF knowledge of this form of treat
ment in our own great country. for
here we have the same needs as Eu-
ropes population--the same diseases,
the same suffering, the same problems
and bountiful Nature has provided
the same form of treatnent-nattral
American mineral waters sparkling
and bubbling from the earth, ready
and able to end serious and painful
disease"
When w think of what DR.. Fitch
has said of the real value of mineral
waters-and then think how very few
people a afford to travel to Ameri-
cas- mineral water resorts-it is very
important to know about Crazy Water
crystals, and the happiness they have
brought to millions suffering from
rheumatic aches and pains and
other chronic ailments. Crazy Water
Crystals are just precious minerals
crystallized from a great natural min
sral Water-a type of mineral water
that has built one of Americas great
esf health resorts, to which 10000
people flock every year. You just mix
Crazy Water Crystals with plain
water, and make y great mineral
at home.
And Crazy Water Crystals are very
economical. A standard sized package
,osts only $3.50 and is sufficient for
everal weeks treatment in your own
lome. Crazy Water Co. Mineral
