Small Farmers in South

Deal that has ruined thousands Of
cotton farmers, especially Negroes,
deprived them of their farms, which
through the Bankhead bill will tax
their cotton away from them, which
pays rental and allotment checks to
the landlords. The same New Deal

disastrous milk production and
marketing codes upon the milk

same terror gangs are used against
the workers and farmers. The Ku

up the union and bring terror to
the countryside. The textile strik-
ers are leading, are in the front
lines fighting the financial interests
that wiring profits from the suf-

united action of workers and farm

Certainly all farmers and farm
organizations which fight for the
toiling farmers, who have the cause
of the oppressed toilers at heart,
will give every possible support in
food, in money, and on the picket
lines to our fighting brothers. This
can be done at once, from Alabama
to Maine, directly to the local strike
committees. Every ounce is a blow
toward winning the strike.

Renounces Proposal to
Repeal Sales Tax On
the Masses
BY Harry Cannes

Some of the great secrets about
which President Roosevelt spoke to
Upton Sinclair, Democratic candi-
date for governor of California, in
their recent Hyde Park conference,
are now coming to light. 1t all con-
cerned Sinclairs plans to End Pow
erty in California"
That Sinclair would have ditched
his whole fake, demagogic program
if elected to Office was a foregone
conclusion. But Sinclair is a very
impatient man. He does not event
wait until he is elected in order to
throw most of his promises into the
waste basket.
Roosevelt undoubtedly recounted
to Sinclair some Of his sad expert
ences with demagogic promises, and
pointed out to him how he could
still try to win the election by, on
the one hand, gaining greater sup
port from some of the most reac-
tionary and outstanding capitalists,
and on the other hand, continuing
to fool the masses, but with less de-
finite promises, with more skill and
subtlety.
Sinclair's first step towards this

The small farmers of the South
who opened their meagre farm sup
plies to the striking textile workers
in the famous Gastonia strike knew
that this was a common fight.
These farmers own sons, brothers
and daughters were striking against
.unbearable Stretchout and starYa-
ton wages, against having their
very flesh and blood woven into
cloth.
The poor fighting farmers of the
United States stand for solidarity
with the workers, So declared the
Farmers National Conference, the
Share Choppers Union, the New
England Farmers Protective Asso-
citation, the Pennsylvania United
Farmers Protective Association, the
United Farmers League, and the
many actions Of sympathy and sup
port by hundreds of farmers on
hundreds on occasions.
Will Aid Mill Strikers
In this magnificent struggle of
the textile workers, the exploited
farmers all over the south will re-
spond again in splendid support, in
giving relief and other forms of
help. So will the farmers in New
England, New Jersey, Pennsylvania,
Virginia and elsewhere. The call of
strikers for tie support from the
Share Choppers Union has had
big response among them. They
also are striking, throwing their
strength into the battle for better
conditions.
These textile strikers are leading
heroic struggle for the right to
live. Against whom? Against the

400 Workers Cheer
Speech by Hathaway
At Campaign Banquet

NEW YORK.-More than 400
workers assembled at banquet in
the Royal Palace, 1913 Manhattan

ing, gave a rousing welcome to
Clarence Hathaway, editor of the
Daily Worker and Congressional
candidate, who was guest of honor.
Hathaway, in making the prin-
cipal address of the evening, en-
phasized the unprecedented oppor-
tunities open to the Communist
Party and to the entire working
class for sending genuine working
class representative into Congress

troops called out by Governor Theo-
dore Green of Rhode Island. In
Woonsocket thousands marched and
practically the entire town looked
on while 19-year- old Jude Courte-
manche was borne to his grave.
So great was the indignation
against the killing that National
Guard officers were forced to re-
move from duty the policeman who
murdered Courtemanche. Woon-

and into the lesser law-making
bodies in the coming election.
In personal cspability, Hathaway
said, the candidates of the Commu-
mist Party rank far above the aver
age capitalist politician. Communist
public officials, he said, armed with
the Communist program and backed
by the mass organizations of the
working class under the leadership
OF the Communist Party can be-
come important agents in the class
struggle.
A total of $102 for the Communist
campaign fund was realized in a
collection at the banquet.

CENTRAL AND HOLTVILLE TEAMS
AGAIN FIGHT TO SCORELESS TIE

the Wildcats would have had one
loss chalked up against their record
for the season.
Holtville lost many opportunities
to score yesterday through loose
handling of the pigskin, an epide-
mic of fumbling occurring when
they had toted the ball almost to
the Spartan goal line. Seven fun
bles were chalked up against the
Vikings, four of which were recov-
cred by the Spartans.
Red Morgan was the Viking star
with his line -plunging until injur-
les forced him from the game in
the last quarter. Lambeth for the
Spartans starred both on offense
and defense while Edgar, Weigand
and Spear were stars in the Central
line with Bill Jones by his punting
and passing as the backfield stand
cut.
In the seasons biggest upset Cal
exico defeated the Brawley Wild
cats yesterday by a 20-13 score. 1t
was the first defeat of the season

standout was Alabama that large

The Crimson Tide swamped Van

a clean sweep for the season. Pitts

this season and defeat does not
look SO good.
John Baker, superintendent of
the Birmingham City auditorium
announced at Thanksgiving dance
last night that the Crimson Tide
had been invited and had accepted.
Coach Tiny" Thornhill of Stanford
was asked to confirm. He said that
"as far as I know" no official ac-

on the seasons program-Army yer

Stanford and an eastern or south

of 78,000. Both teams departed last
night for the scene of battle. The

NEW YORK. Nov 30.-The ex-

I am of the opinion that the big

holds the interest of football custo-
mers all over the World-Will be de
eided by the personal exploits of two
young men.
I refer of course, to the Army
Navy skirmish in Philadelphia, and
to the Messrs. Buzz Berries and
Jack Buckler. Berries is more than
the spark plug of the Navy team
he is practically the entire ignition

more than anything else-and this
is not meant as a reflection on his
teammates-that enabled tn e
youthful and light navy team to
come through as it has this season.
And tomorrow, largely because of
Berries, Navy will go in there
against Army not to hold the score
close, which is the usual situation,

Of doing it.
What's more nearly everybody
will be pulling for the Navy, also

SAN RANCISCO, Nov. 30.-The
great reform wave which struck
University of Southern California
after month of defeats comes to
crossroads Saturday when the
Trojans meet University of Wash
ington in the final Pacific Coast
conference game of the season.
Since Howard Harding Jones
found the right combination of
taekfield strategists and line block
ers, the men of Troy have been re
deeming a hopeless season by ster-
ling performances climaxed by a
$50 rout of sturdy Oregon.
They meet tougher and more
versatile foe in Jimmy Phelans
Huskies from the fartherest north
point of the conference territory If
Troy can win, many feel they will
go on to take Notre Dame in the
closing game of the year week
hence and redeem a season that de
feats by Washington State, Stan
ford, Pittsburgh and California and
g tie with Oregon State had head
ed for failure.
TroyS Improvement appears to
center on the use of "Inky" Wot-
kyns as play-caller. Since relieved of
quarterbacking duties Irvine Got

scooter, has been running in the
manner which made him 1893 ALI

Now the situation Is reversed.

reincarnation of all you'll find in
