Minneapolis Hungry
JObleSS See Spoiled
Meat Carted Away
BY a WORKER CORRESPONDENT

By a Worker Correspondent
MINNEAPOLIS, MINI. A few
days ago an incident occurred at the
South Side branch of the Salvation
Army which should be published in
the Daily Worker. A truck was
seen hauling away over / .000 pounds
of government pork which had been
allowed to spoil.
In view of the fact that the I'M
employed mar, men of Mime
apolis are forc-1 to work on the
E, r. A. for misery starvation
budget, and have been cut off from
obtaining any more Government
provisions, it is a crime that this
meat could not have been distrib-
uted among them before it spoiled.
OF course it is needless to say that
If the Salvation Army had to buy
this meat it surely would have been
taken care of in different manner.
In conversation with some
workers who were waiting for their
work orders last week in the relief
line, I learned that some of these
married men with families were al
lowed as low as S. per month for
rent. I asked them how they were
expected to make up the rest Of the
rent, and they replied that it was
impossible to find any extra work,
so all they could do was battle it
out with the landlords.
One worker told me that he re-
ceivcd $1l per month for groceries
and IS for rent, making a total of
SIS, for which he had to work 30
hours. Out Of this check he had to
spend about 80 cents for carfare.
He also said that the relief de-
partment would not allow him to
work a few hours longer SO he could
pay Tor gas and lights, so he had to
use a gasoline portable burner to
cook on and kerosene lamps to see
with. But this fellow is lucky as
I know of lots of families who sit
in the dark every night and can not
even afford kerosene lamp. OF
course one could very easily connect
up the gas and break the seal on
the electric meter, but then one
doesn't like the idea of digging
worms for the guards out at Park
ers Lake Workhouse to go fishing
with.
In trying to obtain signatures on
the Communist Party nominating
petition last week, an amusing in
cident happened. I was accused by
a strong Farmer Labor voter of
being highly paid by Stain who
was the Dictator of the Republican
Party of Russia" When 1 got
through talking to this worker he
promised faithfully to pay visit to
the Workers Book Shop.

Strikers Are Helped
By Mass Pickets
By shoe WORKER COrrespondent

BY a Shoe Worker Correspondent
SHEBOYGAN, Wis.-Jung's Shoe
Co. workers had been on strike
for nine weeks. Unemployed and
sympathizers wanted to help them
in a mass picket. but the strikers
said they didn't want mass picket.
Eight weeks went by, and they
saw they didn't make any success,
for there were only $50 strikers, so
they asked for a mass picket.
The first two days of the mass
picket, the police force broke the
picket lines with tear gas bombs
and let the scabs go in to work.
But on the third day, there were
about 5000 people at the shoe fac
tory to help in case help was
needed, and others were there Just
to see what happened. On the
third day the police force did
little interfering and this made the
people mad, and in turn they
blocked the whole street. This left
the whole police force powerless.
After seeing the great mass of
people, who were mostly sympathi-
zers and unemployed, the police and
Mr.. Jung, owner Of the lungs Shoe
Company, offered an agreement to
which Frank w. Anderson, of Chi
cago, representative of the Interna-
tional Bot and Shoe Workers
Union, and Carl Stefenson of Chi
cago, representative of the United
States Regional Labor Board, Chi
cago, agreed, and told the people
to agree. The agreement was that
employees are to receive a 10 per cent
increase in pay, recognition of the
shop committee, and that all en-
ployes VINO were employed before the
strike are return to work.

ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS
Our Refrigeration System

Martin Games, Minneapolis The
temperature of the body, in warm
blooded animals is always the same,
in cold as we'll as in hot weather.
The body heat is regulated by a
nervous mechanism, assisted by GER
tain glands, having a central control
IN the meoulla, which is the upper
cart of the spinal cord, nearest the
brain. This heat center receives
stimuli Gmpressions) from The skin
nerves and transmits impulses to
other nerves, called vaso-dilators
and vaso-constrictors, whose func-
ton is to either dilate or contract
the blood vessels in the skin. In
cold weather, the vessels carrying
he warm blood contract. thus caus-
ing it to remain in the center of
the body. In hot weather, or in
fever, the blood vessels in the skin
dilate, which allows more blood to
come to the surface of the body.
The mere blood we have in the
skin, the more active our sweat
glands become. They pour out a
lot of perspiration (sweat0, which
cools the body by evaporation.

Strike Wins Better
Grub in CCC Camp
BY a c. c. c. CORRESPONDENT

By a c. C. c. Correspondent
JONESBORO, Ill.-We talked of
a strike on the job this morning.
The state men said, go an and
strike.
After dinner was over and every
body was in the hunks we told the
fellows to hold their seats and stay
in their hunks when the time came
to go to work.
We stayed in our hunks, but the
rockies started out. l hollered and
said for them to get the hell back
where they belonged. They arrived
last night)
We struck over the grub that they
gave us. 1t isn't fit for a hog to
eat. The boys are still here in the
hunks.
The captain and Louie called US
out in front Of the mess hall. They
asked why we were striking. We
told him about the grub. Then the
Louie asked us what was the matter
with the grub. We soon told him.
Then he said the allowances were
too short. Then we said the new
Louie got by on that amount, didn't
he?
The captain said, yes. We asked
how much did he save? He said
$40 while he was here a month
Then the captain said for us to
point out some men to help with thf
menu. We pointed out four men.
They are to see the Louie this
evening and help out with the menu
for tomorrow and all the time, SO
the captain said. They, the captain
and Louie, tried to smile.
This is after supper, and the sup
per has sure changed, for the pres
ent at least.

DAILY" MORE ACCURATE

Mt

New YORK, N. Y.
Dear Comrades.
| want you to know how in
creasingly effective one comrade re-
CARDS the Daily Worker.
I have been very successful in
several late instances in strikingly
demonstrating the fidelity with
which our paper reports the news,
and in showing that the doctor
ing of news is done only by the
capitalist press and by its social
fascist and renegade allies.
An outstanding instance in which
you made clear the policy of the
Daily Worker" was contained in
the editorial statement of some
months ago, addressed to a worker
correspondent, admonishing him to
stick to facts: That facts needed
no adulteration at the hands of the
Communists = the revolutionary
class-conscious vanguard of the
working class.
The sincerity and integrity of
your editorial position finds con-
firmation in today's Daily Worker"

it has been estimated that only one
person in every hundred is being

reason, therefore, for you to look
with suspicion on four out of every

might have been thinking of pyor-

figures were grossly exaggerated for

This should not be done in the fu-

The problem is best illustrated by
the following financial account Of

very important object of raising
