A DANGEROUS BUSINESS
By WICKES WAMBOLDT

cut recourse to q COOK DOCK,
good cook, as to aver that mother
instinct is mother knowledge.
If we human beings would take
as good care Of our children and
of ourselves as an intelligent
poultryman does of his chickens,
we should find infant mortality
greatly reduced, and the health
of us adults highly improved.
For instance:
A poultryman who knows his
business, keeps his flock healthy
by means of rigid sanitary meas
ures and scientific feeding. He
wouldn't, think of introducing an
other fowl into that flock, with
out first putting that fowl in
quarantine for a sufficient num-
Der of days to assure him that
the bird was free of disease. He
wouldn't even buy. eggs for

come from hens certified to be
free of coccidiosis for he has

are produced from germs that
get into the eggs from the hens
that lay them.
But how do fathers and moth
ers treat their little human
flocks? A mother will hire a
nurse for her baby without tax
ing the least trouble to find out
whether that nurse is disease
free, or whether she comes from
a home that is disease free. The
nurse, dressed up spick and span
in white can and apron, may her
self carry a concealed deadly all
ment; or she may come from
home where she is thrown into
daily contact with some vicious,
infectious, contagious malady.
Poultrymen would go out of
business through overwhelming
losses through the death of their
birds, if they did not take great
cr precautions to protect their
flocks than are used to safeguard
human babies and other members
of the human family.
Yes indeed, the riskiest thing
that soul can do is to come in
to this world as human baby.

WASHINGTON, April 10. (UP).
Closest rival of Secretary lckes
in multiplicity of jobs is Henry
A. Wallace, who sits in the char
of the secretary of agriculture
and looks directly across the room
at a portrait of his father, who
once held the same Job.
Wallace, too, has had added to
the regular burdens of the post
a number of crushing new deal
responsibilities. First, the re-
sponsibility for the entire Agri-
cultural Adjustment. Administra-
ton is upon him. with ali its
broad and shifting range of proc
cssing taxes, crop limitation, mar
keting agreements, and export
arrangements.
He must carry share il the
work of the Commodity Credit
corporation, the Federal Surplus
Relief corporation, the Public
Works administration, the Fed
eral Employment Sterilization
board, the Federal Board for Vo-
cational Education. and the Ma
tional Forest Reservation Com
mission.
Those are all highly important
and require more or less active
attention.
Less demanding are his men,
berships in the usual Executive,
Emergency, and National De-
Tense councils. Being chairman
of the Migratory Bird conserva-
ton commission probably doesn't
take much time, nor his member
ship in the Smithsonian mstitu-
ton, Puerto Rican Hurricane Re-
lief commission, Chicago Worlds
Fair Centennial commission. But
they're nominally responsible
ties.
If ever a man was specially
qualified and trained for a job,
it is Wallace. Born on farm,
he has spent his life not only at
practical farming, but at the
broader aspects of the farm prob
lem, both as editor of farm pa
pers,, and student and author of
books and charts on specific farm
problems.
He has developed systems Of
forecasting corn yields, developed
highly specialized strains of corn,
hogs, and chickens, and taken
part in many movements to aid
farm life.
Wallace is rather shy in man.
Do you recall the little play that
pictured a mischievfous fairy who
had stolen a human baby? The
fairy queen punished the little
hdnaper by condemning him to
become human baby.
H0hn' piteously cried the guilty
fairy in horrors "Don't do that.

I Day Week
Put Miners
Off Relief
UNIV Leaders Do Moth
ing To Fight Conditions
in HuerfanO Co.

WALSENBURG. Colo, ~ Condi-
tionS in the mines Of Huerfano
County are terrible There is a
large amount of dead-work that
the miners have to do for which
they get no pay. The very best
diggers cannot make over 50 per
day in the best run of coal, and
many diggers cannot even make
living.
The relief officials are working
hand in hand with the coal oper-
ators and forcing the miners off
the relief rolls into the mines
where they may not get over
day a week. The companies pick
the men from the relief rolls that
owe them money at the company
stores, so they can take this debt
out of their wages.
The men have to buy all their
tools and supplies and pay their
$40 to the U.MW.A. The eleven
locals of the UM.W.A. are doing
absolutely nothing to better the
conditions of us miners. Last win
ter the president of the Ravenwood
local made speech deploring the
condition of many of the miners,
who were not making enough to live
on, and asked for a collection for
the benefit of these miners. A rank
and file member took the floor
against this, demanding that the
union instead demand that the
company pay these miners suf1-
cient to live on. He lost his job
as a result.
The rank and file in the UNI.
WA. want action, but the mislead-
ers in control have made them
regular company unions. In the
Pryor local, the mine superintend-
ent brings the officials of the union
a gallon of liquor every meeting.
Many locals stif1e the rank and
file to the extent that they are
out of order every time they even
make an attempt to take the floor,
The rank and file miners of
Huerfano county are not going to
continue to put up with such con-
ditions. They are formulating de-
mands and are going to force the
misleaders into action to better
the conditions of the miners and
strive to take control of the unions,
so they will be q benefit to the
miners instead of a tool of the
bosses to hold the miners from any
struggle to better their conditions.

wanted to go to college from early
times, and managed to go. But she
was there only short time when
the huge miners strike broke out
in Pittsburgh in 1928. She had read
and studied Communist material.
She was convinced that the Com
munist program was the way to a
new life. She quit college to give
full time to organizational work for
the Communist Party, and since
then has led the life of a Party
functionary, very often without
food, most of the time without
sufficient clothing, having no
thought but to strengthen the mill

along all lines. She went to the
mine fields in 1928, helped organize
the children and youth, then went
again in 1881. She organized the

Quoted Workers School in Pitts
burgh, where she was one of the
most forceful and popular of teach
ers among the miners and steel
workers. During the 1882 national
elections she toured the entire West
for Foster and Ford, and helped
organize a Relief Conference for
Youth in Detroit, April, 1888. Since
then she has led the workers
struggles there. A trained Party
leader, her one aim is the organi-

betterment of its immediate condi-

meeting of the Range Council, In
ternational Union of Mine Mill and
Smelter Makers, held at Hibbing,
MINI, last Sunday.
The program against Communists
was cooked up by the time the eight
delegates of Eveleth arrived. Before
we were admitted, we had to show
our membership books, although at
previous meetings books were not
necessary, merely the presenting of
the delegates names by the Secre-
tary. As a result, two were not ad-
mitted; one was kicked out, because
there were no stamps in his book.
Our vice-president. Mr.. Herman
Bearson, was refused a seat because
he did not have his book So our
best fighters we're left outside. I'M
msdiately after we entered, some
reactionary steel trust tool said that
there were svowed Communists in
side. and that they should not be
allowed to have a seat. Asked to
point them out, he indicated George
Peterson. Peterson, admitted that
he was q Communist; brought out
the fact that the Eveleth Local had
sent him as delegate,
Then some of Matthew VOLTS and
Ralph Easley's red-baiting articles
were read. Peterson explained that
the expulsion of workers because of
their political beliefs was against
the Constitution of the range locals.
He attempted to defend himself,
bus the reactionaries kept bowling
to kick him out. He called for a
vote to see whether the members
wanted him out or not, but motions
are lost in that Council, if the presi-
dent, a reactionary named Gill, does
not want to recognize them. So they
ordered him out, but he still tried
to say few words in his own be-
half, and so they took him out.
After he was gone, these Steel Trust
agents who assumed leadership of
