RICHMOND, VA. PLANTS CLOSE DOWN, ADD TO THE BIG JOBLESS RANKS 17,000 Already Out of Work in Southern Para- dise of Open Shop Bosses Worker Urges Fellow Workers to Join TUUL to Fight Unemployment, Slave Conditions (By a Worker Correspondent) RICHMOND, Va.—More on unemployment in this bosses’ para- dise, The Albermarle Paper Manufacturing Co., mili No. 1 is shut down, 170 lost their jobs. Sanitary Felt Products Co. shut down April 1, throwing about 80 workers out of jobs. Southern Stove Works Co. is at a standstill, only part of the office force is still employed. C. & O. R. R. Co. laid off 350 workers in the last two weeks. Many of them were working for this slave pen for more than 20 or 25 years. Tredegar Iron Works Co., the oldest iron works in the U. S. A., during the Civil War it was used as an arsenal, ete., by the Confederate Army of southern slave owners, laid off more than 1300 workers in the last 6 to 7 months. The following tobacco factories have laid off hundreds of workers in the last 3 to 4 months, and hundreds of others are only working part time. The American Mills 1, 2, 3, 4, Whitlock, Liggett-Myers, Con- tinental, ete., hundreds if not thousands were laid off in the southern A. ©. L,, R.F.P., Seabord and other R.

Probably he deemed these unimportant, but no worker does. It is not necessary to take up all details. It is enough only to point out that the person who forged this document is either a Ukrainian whose Russian is bad, or a Russian who did not acquire fully the new orthography (spelling) adopted since the Bolshevik revolution. One other point. You will note that the top line on the right-hand side gives a date “January 1931.” Now it is an established rule in Russian, as in some other languages, that the names of the months are not begun by capital letters. But} in this mysterious “document” pro- duced by the genius of Whalen, a capital “J” is used for January and, at the end of the text, a capital “D” for “December.” Still another. Before the signa- ture of Grafpen, there is one word in quotation marks. Why the au- thor decorated it with such marks a) if is beyond comprehension. The word stands for “Comintern.” But even should the Comintern be distin- guished by placing it in quotation marks, any Russian would align them differently—as those who read the language know. And now to do away with any possible doubt as to the clumsiness of the forgery, attention is called to another “little detail.” This document—the alleged “man- date”—is addressed to “G.

SCORES OF TOILERS HURT IN OIL BOAT EXPLOSION Three marine workers were ap- parently drowned outright and from thirty to forty others were injured yesterday, when an explosion oc- curred on an oil-loading boat on the Bayonne, N. J., waterfront. The flames spread rapidly to two other tankers and from these to the plant of the Gulf Refining Co, At the present writing reports as to the place and cause of the explo- sion are still indefinite and contca- diectory. A large number of work- ers, however, have been seriously hurt, Standard Oil is notorious the world over for the vicious murder of its workers, because of a com- plete disregard for the safety of its wage-slaves. When the great fire occurred in Bayonne last win- ter and killed at least fourteen workers John D. Rockefeller, Sr., issued a cynical statement, express- ing oily satisfaction that the fire only cost him a few thcusand dol- Jurs! Workers Camera Club Is Formed in Chicago An appeal to all workers inter- ested in working-class photography was issued by the Chicago workers’ Camera Club of the Workers’ Inter- national Relief. The club aims to supply pictures of events of inter- est to the workers to the revolu- tionary press. It plans to obtain its own club room. It therefore asks for sym- pathetic professional photographers in the workers’ ranks to join the club. Workers interested in joining should communicate with Ada Ar- nold, secretary, at 108 N.

Fascists Try to Rule | Or Ruin Hospital Here A flat charge by Philip Bongiorno, vice-president of the Italian hospital here that the fascists were pursuing a rule or ruin policy in the insti- tution came yesterday. The fascist | group is headed by Emanual Graz-| zim, Italian consul-general, and by | Generopo Pope, a big owner of) Italian language fascist newspapers, and a gravel dealer. Pope was edged onto the hospital board by the arch swindler Ferrrari, whose County Trust Co. crashed last year with heavy loss to the depositors, because Ferrari was stealing part of the money, and using a lot more of it to subsidize Il Progresso and other fascist newspapers. The Mussolini consul is demanding the return to him of $57,000 whieh he claims to have donated to the hospital. ¢ | ‘Camp for Children DAILY WORKER, Page Three YEW YORK, FRIDAY, MAY 9, 1930 BELGIAN W Figurehead? | Struggle Against th But this figurehead to whom MacDonald kneels as the King of parasites and the symbol of ex ploitation and oppression, is paid millions for his “job” out of the toil of the worl s.
