WuIgreen workers
ask boycott

After almost six months of me-
gotiations, workers at the Wal
green warehouse have resorted
to delegating strike strategy
committee to work with the Of
ficials of Local 208, ILWU, CLIO,
to take further steps to force the
company to bargain in good
faith with its employees.
During the entire period of
negotiations company representa-
tives resorted to every sort of
maneuver to delay and break ne
gotiations and the unity of the
workers in the plant.
One of their most carefully de-
veloped schemes persiStently
used was to offer certain groups
of workers greater increases in
an effort to split the workers and
break the union. However, they
have failed to undermine the de-
termination of the workers TO
get the 1870 wage increase
which they need for all the
workers, and union security.
One of the initial steps taken
by the strike strategy committee
was to appeal to all progressive
peoples organizations in Chicago
to request their membership to
boycott Walgreen stores. Local
208 has received resolutions from
various organizations pledging
their full support and coopera-
ton, pledging to boycott the
Walgreen chain.

Here is my order for a one
year sub to The Star. There are
millions of stars in the universe
and science tells us that each
one has done its bit. But to have
one in our home to use its in
tellectual rays to open up those
dark cobwebs corners to political
and economic reason is some,
thing to be proud Of.
We who know its enlightening
effects should always pass our
copy of The Star on to some I'M
fortunate worker, business man
or farmer who are working in a
political dirnout.
So here's toast for the COM
ing year: Here's to our Star.

Health clinic
Sunshine, codIiver oil help
prevent Gripping disease, ricketts,

the the summer and an adequate
amount of codliver oil from Oc-
tober to June, at least through
the sixth year.
Premature babies need two or
three times as much as full-ter:n
babies. 1t is now the practice to
begin codliver oil at two weeks
continuing it throughout the first
year. This is especially important,
for Negro babies and the children
of other dark-skinned peoples
who are much more susceptible
to ricketts, than those with fair
skins.
The dose of codliver oil is
three teaspoons day. For the
child who will not or can not
take it, there are several good
substitutes.
Other sources of Vitamin D are
high potency fish liver oils ana
activated yeast products, given in
amounts varying from 5 to 20
drops daily. One highly concen-
trated form, which is one of the
best methods of treating severe
ricketts,, comes as powder but
should be given only when your
doctor prescribes it. Vitamin D
milks are neither adequate nor
dependable as a source and must
be supplemented with cod liver
oil.

To the Editor:


Reading your paper THE Chi
cago Star" has made me see
clearly how important It is for
the working people to get togeth-
er and fight for the things they
need.
I hope that more people at the
plant where I'm employed will
read your paper and be convinced
of the need for uniting their eff
forts.
If all working people were con
scious of the need to work to-
gether, especially on big issues
like wages, they would become
an active force behind the unions.
They would come out to meet
ings. They would eliminate the
criminal ignorance that ham,
strings our efforts.

Suns censorship
To the Editor:

I have sent several letters to
the Chicago Sun expressing my
viewpoint as a veteran and a cjti-
zen. Few of these were printed
and those that were, were SO cut
down and bled of their meaning
to fit in with the "save capital
ISM policy of the Sun, that I
wouldn't have recognized them if
I hadn't seen my name at the
bottom.
The space for any democratic
opinion of its readers in that pa
per is rapidly approaching the
point of extinction.
I believe my letters deal with
a conditions that weigh extreme
ly heavy on the minds Of Chicago
residents. One of them concerned
crime which is becoming far and
beyond the main product of the
capitalistic system. This capital
ist scare is a much more real and
concrete thing than any red
scare" that the press can con,
jure up. This fact could be en-
phasiZed to advantage in counter
acting the spree of red-baiting
going on.

THE STAR MEDICAL BOARD

THE STAR MEDICAL BOARD
Of all the Gripping diseases
that attack children, there is only
one we can completely prevent,
and that is ricketts,.
Ricketts, is a disease of growing
bones, occurring chiefly during
the first two years when growth
is most rapid and Vitamin ID is
lacking. 1t begins late in fall and
grows steadily worse until warm
weather returns.
The afflicted child shows no
signs until ne has had It for sew
eral months. AZ this tiI,e a. baby
of about a year is sill unable
% sit up straight and makes no
attempt to walk. The wrists and
ankles are la cge and knobby, the
head may appear larger than nor
NAL, and the legs are bowed rot
only outward but forward.
If treatment is begun at this
time most of the deformities dis
appear within a few years, but
delay until the child starts to
walk results in persistent deform-
ity of the pelvis and hip joint.
Severe ricketts, is often accom-
panied by lowered blood calcium
which may produce convulsions.
Prevention of ricketts, depends
on exposure to the sun during

Referring to the said form let
