C. p. Active In Cleveland Shop


CLEVELAND, Ohio, Sept Is
The Communist Party election cam
paign here is being carried into i'm
portant shops in an energetic and
thorough manner.
In Collinwood, a working-clas
suburb, the campaign is being cen
tered around the huge New York
Central Railroad shops. The re-
Spouse of the workers in the shop
is excellent.
The campaign was started by
two issues of the Red Express" a
mimeographed paper published by
the Communist Party members en-
ployed in the shop. These two is
sues dealt chiefly with working con-
ditions of the men, their fight
against a 10 per cent wage cut and
lay-offs.
A third issue several days ago
made an exposure of Charles Ely,
Mayor of Euclid, Ohio, of which
.Collinwood is a part, Republican
County Committeeman and Repub-
Lcan County Committee vice-chair-
man, as the individuals who were
chiefly responsible for breaking the
strike of workers in the Chase
Brass Foundry here.
Both Attacker and Judge
Ely, with the help of a foreman
in the shop, modified thugs and
caused the beating and arrest Of
strikers, against whom he issued
severe sentences in his capacity as
justice Of the peace.
The week following the distribu-
ton of the Red Express" the Com
munist Party issued leaflets con-
demning Ely's activity in the strike
and pointing out how natural it is
that public officials of the capital
list Republican and Democratic Par
ties should act as e-breakers.
The leaflets set forth the election
program of the Communist Party
and urged the workers to vote
Communist.
Workers distributing these leaf
let's were arrested, among them
Peter Margetich, Communist candi-
date for State Representative. After
the leaflets were distributed, a
short meeting was held at the shop
gates. The officials of the plant
tried to disrupt the meeting by
driving to the gates a locomotive
which let off huge quantities of
steam with a deafening roar.

r. Workers
Talk About
New w alkOut


PAWTUCKET, R. L, Sept. 25.-
Scores of workers who were &C
tive in the textile strike found
themselves locked out here when
they tried to return to work yes
terday and today. Many of them
were fatty told that they had
no business to be on strike" or
tauntingly were asked, why didn't
you come back last week."
Mass resentment against the
United Textile Workers Union
leadership in Pawtucket and Cen
trail Falls is sweeping the entire
rank and file in the industry. The
best way to get a black eye in
these parts is to say something
in favor Of Francis German or the
United Textile Workers Union.
Many workers are talking about
coming out again soon to take up
their fight for their original de-
mands where they were compelled
to leave off by the traitorous lead
ers of the United Textile Workers
Union.
Many workers here have ex-
pressed regret that they were not
under the leadership of Ann Burlak
and the National Textile Workers
Union in the strike

telegraphed stories from all
strike fronts; we gave most
detailed organizational and
political guidance to the strik-
ers; we distributed over
10000 copies of the paper,
mostly free, to the textile
workers.
We must be able to do this
in the developing strike of
east and gulf coast maritime
workers, and in all the major
strike struggles now matur-
ing.
The betrayals of the re-
formist leaders in struggle
after struggle (Toledo, Min
neapolis, Milwaukee, San
Francisco, and now textile)
and tie increased fascist
trend of the city, state and
national governments, places
added responsibilities on a
paper like the Daily Worker,
which takes its stand square
ly as the spokesman for the
workers movement in the
fight against hunger, fascism
and war.
Finally, comrades, it be-
comes more clear every day
that, together with the build
ing of the Daily Worker, the
Communist Party must be
built with increasing speed
as the only guarantee against
the fight to unite the workers
day-to-day struggles and in
the fight unite the workers
ranks for an effective stand
against the advance of fas-
cist reaction.
In these many-sided &C
tivities and struggles the
Daily Worker is needed, and
for that reason, to live and
to grow, we need the 100000.
The drive of this 100000
fund to date has Jagged. The
principal Districts of the
Communist Party are not on
their toes. They have not
seriously organized the cam
paign for financial support
for the Party's central or
gan. New York.. for exam
pie, has reached only $3,785
out of its $4,000 quota. Such
returns, comrades of New
York, will never get you a
New York Daily Worker!
Chicago has sent in only
$498; Detroit, 1896; Cleve-
land, $434; Pittsburgh, $144.
What about the Socialist
competition between tn S e
districts? What about the
other Districts with even
worse records? Comrades,
these returns show a serious
underestimation of the Daily
Worker, and of the urgent
need for the 100000 fund.
The money is needed, and
needed badly. Our continued
effectiveness as a fighter for
the workers needs and aims
is at stake. We call upon

A Book a Day
Gives Home Owners Advice On Repairs
BY BRUCE CATION

Along with the governments effort to help home owners get loans for repair and modernization of their houses, comes the publica- ton of book that should fit well
 into this campaign.
 The book is called, First Aid for the filling House." and is writ ten by Roger B. Whitman. Whit man has written a series of 12 articles on repair and moderniza- tion of the home. He is a recog- nized expert on house construction and repair.
 In this. new book, Whitman goes over the house from cellar to at- tic, and all around outside as well, and he tells his readers exactly what to look for when things go wrong and then what to do to cor rect these faults at the least trou- ble and expense.
 Furthermore, the book is writ ten simply and illustrated clearly. so that the average home owner can grasp how to go about keeping the house in good condition. Tn e subjects include such problems as heating the house properly; learn ing the plumbing and maintaining it; protecting the house from the weather; cleaning walls and fur nishings; heatproofing the house; and preventing damage from in- sects and other pests. In fact, so many and varied are the subjects Whitman takes up that the book is worth Keeping as a reference source. to be looked into whenever anything seems to c>0 urrnno in fha home.

The Battle Is Just Beginning

The selection of the republican state ticket at Hartford yesterday drew up in sharp relief the battle lines for the No vember election. In the choice of States Attorney Hugh M. Alcorn for governor the republicans showed a considerable re- spect for the ability of Governor Wilbur U. Cross That is something that has been missing in previous campaigns, although In 1882 there was evidence that the demo- cratic incumbent was not regarded as setup by any means>
 It is far cry from 1880 when the re- publican grip on this state government was first loosened It will be difficult thing for that party to regain what it has lost. Even the presence of such stalwart defender of the sanctity of the law at the head of the ticket may not prove the wedge that will give entry to the chosen land. We are inclined to believe that out of yesterday's session will come sense of illustration on the part of some re- publicans.
 There win be those who will wonder just why Lieutenant-G Governor Roy c: Wit Fox was denied for the second time the rirllt to ride higher in his political plane, In 1882 he was denied the gubernatoriai

He has decided that crime will never be TO o e out of the American system until we, the people, are opposed to it. And Homer, who has been dropping in at the movies, listening to audiences applaud Dillinger and browsing among people gener- ally, has come to the conclusion that the average American con- dones crime.
 So he has selected a special expert to study the attitude of the public toward crime, en- deavor to win the cooperation of the public in it's prevention.
 The expert selected is Henry Suydam, ex-coFrespOndent of the Brooklyn Eagle, not an ex- pert in crime, but as skilled an expert in human relationships as ever covered that complex and not inhuman institution the personnel and politics of the government of the United States.
 Suydam has one of the most intriguing and important jobs in the country. Here are some of the problems given him by Cummings:
 i. veni1e delinquency. Crime will never diminish in the United States as long as a new crop of homeless young sters are being coached in des- peradoism along every motor highway and in every city in the country.
 2. State pardons. Most vio- lent crimes are committed by pardoned or paroled convicts. Some governors turn them out at the rate of three or four hundred year, and over this the federal government has no control.
 / 3. State police. Many states cling to the old sheriff system, lack a mobile. highly-trained state constabulary.
 The chief solution Attorney- General Cummings is groping for however, is why part of the American public elevates desperados like Dillinger to place of hero-worship.
 Until that is solved. he be- lieves, crime will continue ram pant in the United States. SPEED GIRL
 Rush Dew Holt. youthful dem- ocratic senatorial aspirant from West Virginia, has a mother nearly eighty years old and with decidedly definite~ideas.
 Travelling to Chicago this summer in a recently purchased automobile, young Holt was hitting around seventy miles an hour. His aged mother seated beside him. gripped the side of the car, her eyes glued on the speedometer. Finally she com manded her son to stop.
 "Sixty miles an hour is fast enough for anyone to travel" she announced. "YOu stick to that or I'll walk.''

Washington, Sept. 13-Liberty leaguers have not confined their activities to statements by Jouett Shouse and to collecting the sig natures of Al Smih, John w. Davis and other Old Dealers.
 They have been carrying on covert but effective campaign to raise funds from stockholders of the big companies whose property they propose to pro- tect.
 The secret plan is to get each stockholder to agree to contrib ute five or ten per cent of his dividends as Liberty league war chest against the New Deal.
 Among the firms confidentially approached regarding the plan are duPont, General Motors, United tates Steel and J. P. Nor gan and company. They have been asked to enclose a letter with each dividend check props ing that each stockholder relin- qllish part of his earnings to the fight for LIBERTY.
 Unless plans are changed, it is expected that one of these com panies will test out the i a within the month.
 The idea behind this strategy is not merely to raise funds but to make stockholders PROP ERTY conscious, l. 1 B E R T Y conscious and conscious of the alleged fate which awaits them under the New Deal.
 COMPASSION
 Former Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes, nearing 95 years of age, vii be returning soon to his beautiful old home on upper street.
 He has b en summering in Massachusetts, his native state, as is his custom since he came to the capital more than 30 years ago.
 Supreme court attaches were expected arrival the other day, and swapping anecdotes about his long years on the bench. One recounted this tale:
 A young lawyer was arguing his first case before the august tribunal. Flustered and nervous he was having hard sledidng when gruff Justice McReynolds suddenly parked a question at him.
 The young barrisier stuttered for a moment. started to reply. when Justice Holmes leaned for ward and in quiet, but clear voice observed:

Selected Poem
THE AUTUMN .CRoCUs

(Reprint from Christian Science Monitor) In the high woods that crest hills, Upon q steep rough slope of forest ground, Where few flowers grow, sweet blooms today
 found Of the Autumn Crocus, blowing pale and fair. Dim falls the sunlight there; And mild fragrance the lone thicket fills. Languidly curved, the long white stems Their purple flowers gold treasure scarce display; Lost were their leaves since in the distant spring, Their February sisters showed gay. Roses of June, ye too have followed fleet! Forsaken now and shaded as by thought. As by the human shade of thought and dreams, They bloom mid the dark wood, whose air has
 wrought
 With what soft nights md mornings of still dew! Into their slender petals that clear hue. Like paleness in fresh cheeks: a thing On earth vowed, ne'er grew More delicately pure. more shyly sweet Child of the pensve autumn woods! So lovely though thou dwell obscure and lone And though thy flush and gaety be gone; Say, among flowers of the sad human mind, Where shall ever find So rare grace? In what shy solitudes?

BICYCLES

J AA' II ASh
 Bicycle stealing has become a fad among amateur thieves in Chi cago. Next they'll be making a getaway on kiddie cars.
 Some of 'em are already accus- toned to handle bars.
 In the Gay Nineties, pedaling was profession. Now it's a means to promote streamline limbs.
 Bicycling takes the headache out of transportation and reduces it to the lower extremities.
 Now that rise in tires is pre- dicted, a lot of people will have to resort to the two-wheeled ve- hicles. However, most of us don't mind being the goat if the putting helps.
 When we get back to bicycles. .gliders and slow-motion we can nse pants guards instead of body guards.
 Optimistic Ollie says: Between lire cycles, weather cycles and Dl- cycles. if we keep on pedaling we can have our cake and eat it too"
 Some femme cyclists have be- come pretty rugged individuals-- other just ragged individuals.
 And modern streamline motor cars have nothing on the bicycle. Hasn't it always boasted of knee action and free-heeling?'
