Factory Home Work
 Shifts Burden Costs
Women and Children Who Do Industrial Jobs JeOp.
 ardze Health and Undermine Wages

Many home workers were on relief rolls in 1884 because they were not paid enough to cover the cost of live ing. This is one of the arreSting facts showing the serious conse- quences of this type of work cited in c bulletin just issued by the wornen's bureau, U. s. department Of labor. When manufacturers send out work to be done in homes, the results are exploitation of women and children who do the work, the jeopardizing of their health and family life, underj mining of factory wages and work ing conditions, and cost to tax payers who must supplement by relief the low earnings of home workers, and bear the expense of homework in. spection required by legislation in some states but generally inadequate for protection of consumers health. These are among the conclusions of the study. which gives well-round- cd and clear picture of the hofne- work situation throughout the na- ton.
 Interruptions employers use the labor of women home workers be. cause by having work done in the home they can avoid paying rent and factory overhead charges. Moreover, the bargaining power of home work CTS is weak and rather than lose the work they will accept appalIingly low pay--sometime as low as 3 cents and 1 cents or even 1 cent an hour. Tn order to make even the most meager earnings under these low

rates of pay the homo worker must work for into the night, often fore. ing young children and other menl- bers of her family to assist her.
 1a thousands of homes scattered throughout every state in the Union, in farms and in city districts, such work iS being done. Sometimes as in the case of work on nitted berets, the entire production of an article may be done by home workers. More free quently home work supplements fac- tory production as when factory made clothes are sent to home work CTS to be buttonholed. Hundreds of different varieties of articles are made in this way, and the work ranges from unkSiiled carding Of snaps, buttons or safety pins to such skilled craft work as tufting candles wick bedspreads and ennbroidering infants dresses.
 Typical is the one-room shack, de- gcribed in the bulletin, where the mother of the family, i'll, often sews in bed, working on infants garments while the daughters Sit on wooden boxes and benches shocking the dresses, which are hung over the cuBhioned backs of the only four chairs of the household.
 Even more dismal is Q picture pre- sented of artificial flowers being inaae in Q tenement. Tn rooms "too dim for clear eeing," with flowers and parts scattered over the dirty tinmade beds, children wearing old spring coats over their soiled uii- derwear sit on the floor, working on the flowers. One little girl holds up her thumb lacerated by the sharp wires used on the leaves.
 While IS states have laws attempt- ing to prohibit or regulate home work, these laws are difilcult of en- forcement since the work is 50 scat- tered and hard to trace. Sometimes the employer lives in one state and has his work carried on in several other states. Moreover, enforcement in one community simply drives un- scrupulous employers to other locali- ties.
 Many of these state laws have had as their objective the maintenance of sanitary conditions in the homes where home work is carried on in order to protect the consuming pub. lie from all chances of communic- able disease. Regular inspection of homes and factories is essential to enforce these laws. Such inspection is expensive to tax payers and at the same time fails to bring them ade- quate protection because of the difti- culties in finding and regulating home work.
 Tn view of these circumstances, the bulletin quotes authorities to the ef- feet that the best solution to the problems around home work is com- plete legal prohibition. As one step toward bringing such work back into the factory, @ recommendation is made that manufacturers employing home workers should defray all costs of adequate homework regulation either through license fees or taxes.
 A further recommendation is the development of handicraft produc- ton centers where skilled crafts women may supplement their family earnings and yet Care for their fan- flies by working part-time under controlled conditions and for fair wages. The bulletin stresses the need for an enlightened public opinion on the serious consequences of in- dustrial home work.

WOMEN AIDING
 IN FUNDDRIVE
Enthusiasm Marks Efforts OfWOrkers in Scout
 Campaign

m speaking of the coming Boy and Qirl Scout campaign to raise 9lB.ie0 during the week Of Noven- Der 1D to 26, Mrs. John h. 0eist, who with Mrs. Joel I. Butler, is enc listing the help of the women, states the latter are determined to do their share in securing the funds and are rapidly completing their crganiEa- Ntion.
 Mrs. 0eist says Tn my opinion no cause deserves greater or more wide spread financial support from our citizens of ell walks of life, than does the scout movement which touches every section Of the clty with it's for reaching program. "Youth is made to feel its responsl- bility to the home, the neighbor next door or across the street and to the community as . whole. DO Q good turn daily" means just that to the boy or girl with scout training.
 Continuing, Mrs. deist says "there are now about 1900 boys and girls enrolled as scouts but that there are approximately 30000 more not yet reached who are eligible.
 Among the aims of the scout movement is that of reaching one oue of every four i2 year old boys and girls and If our people will pro- vide the very modest sum being asked for, Q creditable beginning in that direction can be made this year."
 The women's section will be divid- cd into three divisions of five teams each and will Do under the direction Of Mrs. Earl smithies, Division E. leader, Miss Mary Hennessey leader of Division P; and Mrs. William Oager, Division c leader, These lead CTS with their captains will meet in

c,aIety pervaded the city last nlght es young and old joined m celehrating Halloween. Crowds ot celebrators thronged the downtown streets, large groups gathered in various sections of the city, while thousands flocked to Halloween parties in halls, lodge rooms and private homes. Repeated police and fire department appeals for an or. derly Halloween apparently had effect. for only one false alarm was rung in, few cases of vandalism were reported, and the i1errymak- CTS engaged in no major disturb anceg.
 Firemen were stationed near alarm boxes in many parts Of the city. while extra policemen were on duty. Tn addition to an augmented night shift, the members Of the police afternoon platoon remained on duty till most of the celebra- tions ended, while traffic policemen were also recruited for extra duty.
 Holiday Spirit
 The rain which fell in frequent showers during the evening did not seem to dampen the spirit of the holiday .minded crowds, and good nature abounded as the multi. costumed celebrators walked and rode drought the streets.
 A parade sponsored by the Hope vile Community Club brought many persons to that part of the city. Other community clubs held parties and dances. while societies and fra: ternal organizations also staged Halloween parties.
 The merrymaking will be contin- ued in several parts of the city to- night, as Halloween events are staged.
 Hamilton Park
 Approximately 900 Halloween merrymakers attended the annual costume party at Hamilton Park pa- yilion featuring the music of Jimmy Fitzgerald and his orchestra. Cash prizes were awared following the grand march led by William Derwia of the Park Department.
 Anne McEvoy, nattily attired in a red cellophane outfit, took first prize as the neatest girl. Anne Kroc and Jeanne Laperriere, dressed in white and red Russian Cossack uniforms, were judged the rleatest pair of girls. The most original costume was worn by Ernest Brick son. Other prize winners were Florence Osked and Genevieve Ho- jnicki, representing Night" in black costumes covered with silver stars, and Minnie Pinto and Julia Mon. gillo, representing Japanese i1ai- dens. The judges were Joseph Don- ahue of the Waterbury Democrat, Henry Kaliss and Edward Rebar.
 Hopevllle
 Led by St. Joseph's Fife and Drum corps. the annual parade of Hopevilie residents last night. with hundreds of children in line, was one of the outstanding features of the city's observance. The route of march was from the Hopeville sta- dium over Piedmont street, to Bald- win street, to Baldwin avenue to the judges stand on the ball diamond. A costume dance in the Hopeville school gym under the auspices of the Hopeville Community club fol. lowed the parade.
 Prizes awarded the youngsters were as follows:
 Best appearing girl, Marie Lo. gan; best appearing boy, Thomas sevigheny: honorable mention, An- toinette dagliardi. Robert Rice, Francis Brodeur, Robert Hulsart and Jeannette Brodeur.
 Funniest costumes: Doris Nich- ols and Calvin Foster: honorable mention. Genevieve \ tius, Diane

 Greater mobility and efficiency have come to one of the most irn- portant cogs in the military ma chinery-the signal corps-through the motorization programs that are moderpizing the worlds armies.
 Tn the U. 8. signal service, near- iy oil tactical units have been transformed under the PWA motor izing plan.
 Most signal corps have charge of all military signaling, tele- graph, telephone, and balloon work. One of their important duties, of course, is wire laying and the pic- lures show the new way and the old.

Rise In Economy

"The general rise in the national
economy may be seen in the basic
industrial centers, as in the recently
still absolutely backward and re-
mote agricultural regions. The turn
has come even in the most remote
regions Of our Union.
Precisely in the period under re-
view the Far Eastern District be-
gan to grow at an exceptionally
rapid pace. This is very significant
for our country, since the Far East
ern District is rich in natural re-
sources and has a great future. The
past period has shown that the
Soviet Union can rapidly move for
ward in the development Of even
such remote and difficult regions
from the point of view of trans
port.
eve have continued to develop
the industrial enterprises, transport
and agriculture in the Far East.
But besides, in the last three or four
years a great deal of new construc-
ton has been taking place there.
We are successfully laying a second
track along the entire railway line
of the Far East which stretches
1000 miles and have started build
ing a big Baikal-Amur railway line"

ment in the near future.
During the four years since the
Sixth Soviet Congress" Molotov
declared, "the economy of the US.
S.R. has made a big stride forward.
In the period under review we sue
cessfully completed the First Five
Year Plan, fulfilling it in four years.
This allowed us Immediately to push
forward to the grandiose Second

1887 and put still bigger tasks in
the new Plan than in the first.

added Molotov, there Is no special
demarcation between the first and
the second Five-Year Plan. In
reality the second is the organic
continuation Of the first The fun
damental tasks of both are - the
rise of the national economy Of the
country and the rise Of the material
well-being and culture of the masses
of people.
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1935-01-31

''In connection with this, it is par
ticularly important to note the fol-
lowing facts. During the period
under report, the struggle between
victor countries and defeated coun-
tries has intensified, and along with
this, there took place, particularly
in certain parts of Europe, an in
crease in the work behind scenes
for the regrouping of forces in the
event of war, and an increased
search for allies in all parts of the
world. simultaneously, the devel-
opment of the relations of the
U.S.S.R. with capitalist countries
disclosed a considerable increase in
the role Of the U.S.S.R. as an inter-
national factor, especially as a fac
tor for peace and safety.
Passing to the concrete facts of
the period under report, we should
speak firstly of the restoration of
diplomatic relations by the U.S.SR.
with many states.
Here we should mention countries
like the U. S. A., China, Spain, Hun
gary, Rumania, Czechoslovakia, Bull
garia and Albania. Of great signi-
ficance is the restoration of normal
relations with America. For Is years
the U. S. A. adopted the position OF
denying the Soviet Union recogni-
ton on principle. On this question
the U. S. A. acted under the flag OF
irreconciliable deefnse of the prin-
ciple OF the capitalist world against
! the new Soviet world. Evidently

uation, competition and coopera-
ton simultaneously are going on
between two opposite social systems.
We may say that such a situation
is contradictory, but it corresponds
with the actual state of affairs. At
the same time that competition, or,
if you wish, struggle, is going on
between the U.S.S.R. and various
capitalist countries, collaboration in
new forms, both in the sphere of
economic relations and in the mat
ter Of preserving peace, is contin-
ually developing between them.
THE U.S.S.R. is striving in
every possible manner to develop
commercial relations with other
countries. In the period under
report, the chief significance of
the collaboration of the U.S.S.R.
with other countries is in the
preservation of peace. The rela-
tons of the Soviet Union with
capitalist countries during this
period, finally, were determined
by two basic factors:

The Kulak Class

Let us now see what happened
with the bourgeois classes, including
landlords, the large and small urban
bourgeoisie, merchants, and the
kulaks. In 1918 they represented a
great force. Their total number
reached %, 100000, including 17,1OO,-
900 kulaks. The October Revolu-
ton during its first decade swept
aside a considerable portion of this
social stratum, and many began to
penetrate other social groups. Thus,
in 1928 only 100000 remained, in
Guiding 100000 Of the kalak class.
GAS a result of these regroupings,
the relations between the basic So
cial groups of the population in our
country have changed in the fol-
lowing way: the proletarian popula-
ton increased from 16 per cent in
1913 to 28.1 per cent at the begin
ming Of 1884 Among the toiling
masses of the peasantry, a new
group of peasant collective farm
members has been formed, which
at the beginning of 1884 already
represented 45.9 per cent of the to-
tai population of the country, and
at present represents over half our
population. At the beginning of
1894, the individual peasantry rep
resented only 22.5 per cent, and at
present this group has been reduced
still further. The bourgeois elements
of the county, which in 1913 &C
counted for fully 159 per cent Of
the people, has since, as is well
known, been liquidated. Some Of
these gentlemen have simply been
thrown out, and live abroad, How
ever, a certain part of the people
formerly belonging to the bourgeois
group has begun to understand the
meaning of past events, and find
their place in the ranks of the
toilers, helping to build the new
life.
