Wall street has been flooded with whispers that the “depression” | }may last five and even ten years. | |The coupon-clippers have final, been overwhelmed by the realiza- tion that the whole crisis is more | than a mere midsummer ' night’s | dream and that the goose that | the golden eggs is going to be sick for a longer time than they ex- | pected. The latest stock crash registered | this realization. The bourgeoisie has |: lost whatever desperate faith it did | have in Hoover’s Program of “busi- | ness stabilization.” Events have compelled them to recognize that its total effect was actually to| worsen the crisis. | An editorial in pete New York Times, entitled “Official Opti- clearly. The president and his cab- | inet, the editorial states “surely | have had very bad luck in the mat- | ter of undersigned coincidences. Even Secretary Mellon seems to have lost his former magical power over the stock market. On the very day after his rosy assurances, se- curities scrumbled away, commodi-| wheat—the especial pet and pro- tege of the Washington Administra- tion—fell to the lowest quotations for many years. The next day Secretary Lamont of the Depart- ment of Commerce spoke his duti- ful piece about the great benefits which the new tariff is going to confer upon the country and again the response was a further slump in securities, The diet of false en- couragement upon which they (the bosses) have been fed for three or four months past by Government statements is gettiig pretty thin.” A resolition introduced in the House yesterday by Representative Howard of Nebraska further re- veals the attitude of the bourgeoisie toward Hoover’s prosperity pro- phecies. Howard’s resolution asks the House to pray with the presi- | dent and with Mellon to be pleased | “to refrain from uttering any more elled goddess of prosperity in her Demonstrations of unemployed| the Town Hall. 3,000 Ruhr Workers Fight Against Wage Cuts BERLIN I.P.S.).—Demonstrations| Three thousand workers demon- of metal workers and sympathizing | strated in Essen, 2,000 in Reckling- workers of other professions took | hausen, thousands demonstrated in place in the industrial areas in the | Bochum, Oberhausen, Gelsenkirchen, Ruhr district as a protest against | Duisburg and other towns.

They were convicted for the “crime” of suting leaflets calling upon the worke Mount Vernon to pro- | test against the previous railroad- ing of the eleven Y. C.

D. lawyers was shushed with “Too bad, too bad, | twenty-five dollar fine or ten days.” “The e of mind of the defend- ents, “claimed the judge, “is one of not caring for law. Permit or no permit they continue to hold meet- ings and distribute their circulars.” The judge admitted that if they had been business men illegally dis- | | tributing advertsiing circulars they | would have been fined $2 or so. The workers sentenced were George | Horschoff, Herbert Sebner, Samuel | Freeman, Stanley Kunchewski, Robert Young, and Joseph Klein. Marion Stamler, also convicted, was given a suspended sentence, and protested vigorously their discrim- | ination. Klein, a 16 year old boy was arrested for distributing copies of The Young Worker. The fact | that it was a paper with second | class mail privileges did not mean| anything to the judge. LATIN WORKERS ROUSED 3 TO INDIAN REVOLT, NEW YORK.—The support of |the Latin American masses of the | Indian revolution is directly con- nected with their struggle not only against British imperialism in their , jown countries but also against the | | murderous American imperialism. The Latin American workers in | the U d States will participate |in a mass demonstration in support of the Indian revolution under the auspices of the anti-Imperialist League. This mass meeting will be held on June 27th at New Harlem Casino, 100 West 11th Street with the active cooperation of the Cen-| tro Obrero, Anerc, and the Asocia- cion Obrera Revolucionaris Portor- | riquena.
