'spiral cracks' in goblet stem

I recently made a series of goblets for an order and was surprised to
see the 'spiral cracks' on the inside of the stems.... at the greenware
state. I make the stem and cup separately and then join them.

Any advise to eliminate these cracks would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
sandy
