Lots of carpenter ing is done by 50 cent men. "Drill ers" in the tunnels are doing the work of miners and should get $1. 20, but they g%t .90. And so on. Testimony will be taken on cases like this." Captain Plank appar ently questions statement of the facts. These barracks mass meetings have been held by the union to sec ure the right to move out. At pre sent a man has to live there to hold his job. The governmen is ap parently afraid to face the test of something about it. A week later telegrams were sent to the candi dates. Most of them replied with elaborate promises and statements of past performance in protesting air, the swinging ladders, roman rings, and all sorts of aerial rig ging. As a special feature the Famous Robbins Circus also will present Rex the original Movie Dog, and his Trainer Tex Schubach, with his troup of Hollywood Stars direct from Hollywood,, you have seen Rex in the Movies, now see him, himself.

It was pointed out having to sell its services on an open commpetitive basis. Protests finally reached the President him self—if they had not done so be fore—when Joe Monaghan wired him that "conditions in barracks at Fort Peck were disgraceful. Men suffering terribly. Have ta J 5 ®? "P . wi ' h the department but received no satisfaction. Please tr^Mumy the 1res ident affidavit from George Try on, president of the machinists' union, who was fired for the report on Fort Peeck which he made at the convention of the State Federa tion of Labor. Even after the facts reached the president (presumably, or at least his office) no action was visible. Hence the decision to picket a mess hall by way of für ther protest. Some time ago the mass meet mg sent letters to the candidates requesting them to help in gaining publicity for barracks conditions, especially in the daily press. J. F. O'Connor and H. L. Mrury did to them in return that protests had been made for months, and that real publicity would make protests effective. A statement to the press was again requested. O'Connell, Sparling, and Mike Hol land seem to have done their best. Monaghan is mentioning Fort Peck in speeches but has made no re-ply to our request for a state ment to daily press. Holt, flatly refuses to make such a statement. Murray and Ayers have dodged it. It was the sentiment .of a mass meeting that Holt, Ayers, Monag han, or Murray at least are prom inent enough to get a statement in the daily papers, and that would do more than anything else to get the conditions remedied. So far the only result of three months pf protest has been to get a committee appointed to investi gate at some future date. Federal Union 20192, which has been spon soring the mass meetings, posted a notice which read in part, "The investigation is likely to be a whitewash unless we keep bring ing pressure to bear. If the meet mgs continue to be well attended and continue to take action we can prevent the investigation from being a whitewash. Subscribe to The Producers New». TWIN CITY LABOR BANQUET NELSON MINNEAPOLIS, July 11—Geo rge A. Nel*#jn, Socialist candidate for Vice-President of the United States, was tonight the guest of honor at a banquet held under the auspices of the Minneapolis and St. Paul locals at the Labor Lyce um. Over three hundred Socialists and sympathizers heard a fine pro gram of speeches and entertain ment. Besides Nelson, other speak ers were Carl Pemble, state secre tary of the Socialist Party, Myles Dunne, the editor of the North west Organizer, the organ of the General Drivers Union, acting as a toastmaster and Farrell Dobbs, Secretary-Treasurer of G. D. U 574. •i The speech of Nelson was the official opening of the Socialist campaign in Minnesota. Present indications point to an unusually successful campaign this year as thousands of disillusioned Farmer Laborites, liberals, and radicals come to the Socialist Party for the way out of the capitalistic chaos, the other parties no adequate ex the other parties no adequate ex pression of their discontent; the Farmer-Labor party of Minnesota is perhaps the best of its kind likely to appear on the political horizon, yet the meager reforms it gets for the workers does not ev en compare well with the reforms granted by the Democrats. In a decaying economy, and that is what ours is, no party but a revol utionary one can give any gains to the workers.
