Medical Assn.
Tries To Smash
Doctors Union

L~ONDON-(FP)-The British Med
ical Association is circulating a letter
among its branches calling upon them
to smash the Medical Practitioner
Union because it recently affiliated
with the British Trades Union Con
gress.
This is the sensational charge made
by DR.. Alfred Welply, union secretary
The union has about 5000 members.
It was formed to bring the benefits OF
medical science within the reach Of the
whole community,
The B. M. AS letter urges secre-
taries of its branches to persuade
health officers throughout the country
to use their influence in getting the
union b%oycotted. 1t used the argu-
ment that union doctors are seeking to
impose a trade union tyranny" on the
country.
Exactly the opposite is the case" a
prominent union member said. I'VE
are resisting the greatest tyranny ever
imposed on a body of professional
workers. Our view is that health is
the right Of the people and in the in
terest Of the community.
Medical Developments should be in
that direction rather than in an at
tempt to bolster up individualism which
has created a sort of black magic,
hush-hush' atmosphere around the pro-
fession."

Boss Wants
Big Raise; 9 Dollars
Enough For Clients

CLINTON, Iowa. Up Because
she is a successful skinflint in starving
the unemployed under her charge Re
lief Supervisor Bertha c. Laue of Gin
ton is in line for a raise from 500 a
month to $185.
"She has spent money wisely" de-
clared Special Representative Lloyd
P. Todd Of the Iowa Emergency Relief
Commission.
But in municipal court a different
story was heard when four men on
relief we're tried for stealing coal from
the Northwestern Railroad, Their de-
tense was that Mrs. Laue doled out
relief at such low levels that they had
to find coal somewhere to keep them
selves and families alive.
One of the men was allowed 50 a
month for himself, wife and baby. An
other gets SO a week and must buy a
thermometer and other things for his
wife in a state %sanitarium. Mrs. Laue
told him he gets a 81 grocery order
each month as well as the SO.
Then she scolded all the defendants
in court saying, you put the relief
office on the spot when you say you
can't get any relief and have to go out
and steal, The judge suspended SEN
tence on the men and Mrs. Laue will
probably get her SIS a month raise
for herself.

Arkansas Radical
Groups Vote r9r
Jon ! Action

MENA, Ark.-(FP)- 8 red by the
conviction of Ward 2 ers, a So
cialist teacher employe = the govern
ment, and by the ap1 : ron convic-
ton of four others h comes to
trial February IS, tn ious factions
at Commonwealth c e near Mena
have agreed on a ba r common &C
ton to deal with Il lergency.
This emergency overs the drive by
government and state authorities
against adequate relief, against rights Of
tenant farmers to organize and against
radical activity of a lawful nature
throughout Arkansas. Rodgers was
convicted under the state criminal
syndicalism or anarchy law for telling
a meeting of tenant farmers that VIC
lence by the planters will call forth
violence from these attacked. He is in
jail under heavy bond.
The other four are two white or
ganizers of the Southern Tenant
Farmers Union, L. NJ Mills and w. H.
Stultz, a Negro member named A. B..
Brookins and a Negro teacher, r.. l..
Butler, who had assisted the farm
union work. They were arrested No
vember Is at a Cross county meeting of
the union when the sheriff and prose-
cutor broke up the meeting. They
were convicted the next day Of inter
fering with labor and securing money
under false %pretenses." After a month
in jail they were bailed out pending
the appeal to be heard at Wynne, Ark.
Lynch spirit prevails. These four
will be railroaded to jail as was Ward
Rodgers if the workers and farmers Of
America fail to protest." Director Luz
Glen Koch of Commonwealth College
told a mass meeting of poor farmers
at Marked Tree, where Rodgers was
convicted.
The trouble arose partly from at
tempts Of wealthy Arkansas planters to
hog the government checks for plow-
ing under cotton which should have
gone to their tenants and share crop
pers. The farm union agitated against
such embezzlement and so the sheriffs
and prosecutors got busy to silence the
agitators.
The agreement f%orjoint action in
cludes the Socialist Party local at Com
monwealth, the Commonwealth College
Association, the Communist Party
fraction GROUP and the unaffiliated
students and others at the college.
They will offer a united front to aid
farm unions, to cooperate with In
ternational Labor Defense for all who
may be jailed "for union or revolu-
tionary activity in Arkansas" to help
organize the unemployed, to assist
District Fl of the United Mine Work
ers in getting autonomy under the
u. M. w. A., to aid in the campaign
against lynching and to assist radical
student and teacher organizations at
Arkansas colleges.
Protests against the attempt to jail
the four defendants up on appeal
should be addressed to Prosecuting

NRA Index Shows 1917
Per Cent Increase In
Living Costs

cost
of living has increased much more than
have most workers wages under the
New Deal, is shown by figures of the
NRA division Of Research and Plan
ming. Since the low point of last
April the living costs OF American
workers have increased by nearly 15H
per cent, according to its index. Since
the NRA itself went into effect, costs
have increased about IS per cent.
Workers whose actual money earnings
have not increased this much, have lost
ground under the New Deal.
The NRA cost Of living index (based
on 1920 stood at 1895 in November,
1884. the latest month for which it is
available. This compares with an in
dex Of ISL in November, 1888, 20 in
June 1888, and 68.4 in April 1888.
The NRA index is based on that Of
the National Industrial Conference
Board, an employers research organ
Mization, with the figures reweighed to
give more weight to food and clothing.
