After pointing out that their in- dex of production invreased four Yer cent for January, they go on to show that this, so far as the workers were concerned, resulted in more unemployment: “The number of wage earners employed at factories declined fur- ther between the middle of Decem- ber and the middle of Jenuary, and wage payment showed a larger reduction (indicating wages-cuts).” Repcrts from Illinois show in- creasing unemployment and more wage-cuts. A dispatch to the Jour- nal of Commerce (Feb. 24,'1930) 8 discouragingly says: “Things have taken an unfayor- able turn the present week. . . The tone is decidediy less and the disposition now is to paint the future in more subdued colors than has heen the wont of late. . .” They get no joy from the pres- ent, much advertised increase in steel production, }ecause they real- ize this is a temporary thing. “The high degree of activity in the steel trade, by the way, s largely ascribable to the order: which have come in such ib: ;volume from the railroads vhich have now ‘pretty nearly ex- hausted their stimulating influence even in that quarter.

These will be taken up in another issue of the Daily Worker. The most outstanding feature, however, is that unemploynient is admittedly imcreasing at the rate of from 200,000 to 300,000 per month (based on the Department of Lahor faked ontimistie figures) and the struggle for unemploy- nient relief must be intensified and deepened.
