Sandwich critique leads to clampdown on mag

Whoever says that the nuns can't cook had better say it very...very..quietly.

This home at 2036 Favard in the Point was once a printer shop that was busted in late January 1933 for publishing the Spartakus pamphlet written by a revolutionary local court stenographer named St. Martin. The printers had helped the stenographer get his "blasphemous" Spartakus out in the streets since the October prior.    One of the controversial articles was entitled "Sandwiches," which according to the Montreal Herald, "attacks the methods of giving out charity to unemployed and particularly the quality of the sandwiches handed out by several religious institutions." 

   The paper also printed the words to the "International" the socialist march song. The paper purported to be published at the "request of the unemployed," "whenever funds are available."
