Y less Must Go Out _D AILY W ORKER, 100,000 JOBLESS EVICTED FOR LACK OF RENT : Boss Courts Admit Job- (Continued From Page One.) unemployed are helpless—the law is for the landlord. It is sufficient for landlord to give a ‘five day notice and out goes the unempoyed, even ‘if whole of his or her family is sick or starving. The Judge frankly stated: “T am forced to break up homes— | destroy the fundamental basis for civilization, and I have no choice.” | 150 Evicted Daily This capitalist law is automatic. Judge Trude said his court evicts on the “average 150 families a day. The odds are all against the un- employed.” A pitiful sight: A 68 years’ old widow with hungry family, a man with three children crying for bread, mothers, fathers with families and j noothing to eat—all evicted or given { ten days to move out. You see, it Gis better for a landlord and the haGovernment to make a tenant move deout—it saves some trouble, there- 1 fore the exceptions. Unemployment is Growing In spite of all the promises of | | “returning prosperity,” unemploy- ment is still increasing and is reach- ing on appaling stage. Even the | capitalist press cannot ignore He } situation. i At least 5,000 eviction notices in | Chicago have been “temporarily | | postponed by the welfare agencies. | 10,000 Families Evicted | On the new cases—237— (bosses | figures) a day the total workers evicted this month, September, will reach not less than 10,000 families. A worker writes the Daily | Worker: “My experience as one of the| 10,000 proves to me that this is one | of the most powerful attempts yet | to beat down the standard of living } of the workers, yet conceived by the | boss class, to make the workers bear | the burden of the present crisis.” | “To make an appeal to a welfare | agency here is to be convinced that ‘) they cannot and will not do any- thing to halt the actual starvation | of the already starving workers.” Same All Over U. 8S. These facts about Chicago apply equally to every industrial center in the United States. In New York, | Detroit, Cleveland, the situation is even worse. As time goes by, with jobs growing less and less, the en- tire 8,000,000 9 will face eviction; | with their families this counts from between 5,000,000 and 40,000,000 who face this plight. The boss courts admit they exist for this purpose; the “charity” joints help merely to cover up the real depth of the worsening condi- tions of the workers. It is up to workers themselves to increase the fight for the immediate passage of | the Unemployment Insurance Bill, | advocated by the Communist Party. Employed and Unemployed, Unite | i Nor is this the task of the unem- ployed workers alone. Along with the worsening crisis and increasing unemployment comes drastic wage- cuts for the workers on the job. The worse conditions of the unemployed workers, the bigger and more drastic will become the wage cuts for the unemployed; the less secure their obs, the worse the speed- up forced on them by the bosses. It is neces- ary for all workers to unite in the truggle for unemployment insur- | ance and against wage cuts. | Vote Communist! The Communist Party, in its elee- sion..campaign points out to all vo that the most erying need an immediate and broad class fight for unemployment insurance. This will never be “granted” by the bosses... They must be forced to hand over unemployment insurance. A mighty effort must be put up bby the Workers, in supporting the Com- munist candidates, to wring unem- ployment insurance from the boss government. “Organize and Strike Against Wage Cuts!” “Demand the Passage of the Unemployment In- surance Bill!” “Vote Communist!” Use This Blank At Once!

I ight tor UN for Unembloyment Ins Insurance! (By a Worker Correspondent) VINCENES, Ind.—Fifty fami- lies of jobless are now liying on the garbage dump. This dump is found on the river bank right in the city limits. The shed the jobless live in is collected from the dump. A major portion of the food eaten by the jobless is collected at the dump. Such filth. Green flies swarm- ing everywhere. To add to the picture the sewer that carries the filth from the city toilets empties into the river at this point of the river bank. Chicago, Il. | While in quest of a job today, at the employment offices in the neighborhood of Canal, Madison and Jefferson St., I found two jobs on and I am still jobless. Out of 25 employment offices the boards were bare at 23—at the other two one job, piece work skinning cats—at the other em- ployment office a solicitor was wanted to collect’ money for charity.

He pretended to want to make a forgery and plant it in the office of Ralph Easley and Matthew Woll of the National Civic Liberties. The reason for this proposal of the stool pigeon. appeared later. Easley and Woll had transmitted the Whalen forgeries from Bernad- |! sky and Djamgaroff and Yasowa and the Novoye Russkoye Slovo gang that had them made. When it became apparent that the Whalen documents were discredited, Bernad- sky decided to admit that they were forgeries but to say that they were | made by the Communists, and pl. purposely where Whalen’s spies would steal them. The provocateur Weiss was evi- dently ordered to prepare the way by “exposing” a similar incident to that invented by Bernadsky. | bets geevantes then trim henson wiste new, German atrocities disposed of Germs tars" Magyar crueltics ave yet to be ¢ _ word fail to express can be seen on the act toasaphs which weie nracered frog the Above is part of a pictur | lished in a booklet by C Slovaks of Pittsburgh, after the war, showing hangings of their country women in Austro-Hung- ary during the war.

Weiss since then has been writing for the Forward and Novoye | Rrsskoye Slovo. When articles of Weiss appeared in the yellow socialist Forward, slandering the Negro members of | the Communist Party and a week be- fore Weiss announced through the Times his charge about the plant- ing of forgeries, the Central Con- trol Commission printed a statement in the Daily Worker that Weiss “was expelled as an agent of Easley of the National Civic Federation. .

He wants to use we | misery of the unemployed to s | drive for cheaper money for himeelt even though he states, contradic- torily enough and very close to the real root of the problem, “Congress can not make people buy auto- mobiles.” He is particularly em- phatic against any insurance or interference with rationalization. “You must not turn the industries | into orphan asylums,” he thunders, and hjs slogan is ever hire a man unless he gives you a big pro- fit.” The Cincinnati Swindle In line with Ford’s program is | the new “Cincinnati Plan” of the so- called, “Permanent Committee on Stabilization of Employment,” hich, ‘under the leadership of a bosses’ agent, James Wilson, vice president of the A.

The pian is just for a | wage cut per hour, and a reduction | of hours also of those men already at work. Along with the “Cincinnati Plan” goes extensive advertisement of the | Proctor and Gamble Ivory Soap program, Much praise has been lavished on Ivory Soap for its pro- position to guarantee a_ limited number of workers 48 weeks’ work | But with this plan, and | not usually included in the hero worship of Proctor and Gamble, is | a provision that only those who] subscribe five per cent of their wages to the purchase of stock in |the company get the guarantee, and | furthermore, twelve and a half per | cent of their salary is to be paid in | stock dividends! In answer to fake remedies, which, being analyzed, are shown to be nothing but schemes to cut wages and throw the burden of the cri still more on the workers and the | jobless, the Communist Party in its present. election campaign concen- | trates on the Workers Unemploy-} ment Insurance Bill, calling for the | | appropriation of $5,000,000,000 from | the national treasury to be used to | pay at least $25 a week to every jobless worker, and $5 more for each of his dependents. The $5,000,000,- 000 is to be raised by taking over for unemployment insurance all war funds, by special taxes on incomes over $5,000 yearly, and by a capital levy. *- @ 6 | DETROIT.—Gloom continues to} deepen over Detroit. The latest | factors contributing to the depres- sion are the closing down of the Ternstedt Mfg. Co., General Motors unit, for at least a month and the | reported closing of the Lincoln | plant early in October. The Board of Commerce has issued figures on | industrial employment here which show that such employment is only about 50 per cent of normal and | nearly 90 points off from peak employment last year. Without countering the hunger and misery resulting from h staggering unemployment, the ¢ welfare department ran up a def: of $318,000 in July.
