Red-Baiter Loses Out in Cal: San Bernardino, Cal, Daily Worker: Dear Comrades:—The district at- | orney of San Bernardino threatened the voters of this city and county that if they will not re-elect him it will give this county a reputation as a harborer of radicals who are teaching defiance of all “organized” governments. All other officials of this county were renominated, in the primaries except him, Mr. Johnson is the hero who raided the Yucaipa childrens’ camp and prosecuted Yetta Stromberg and the others who were working at the camp, And when the I.

He wants to do something for the workers.” RS. K. Gyp Seaman at Institute New York Daily Worker: Last night I went to the Seamen’s Church Institute to get a bed for the night for 35c, A seaman who had just paid off was there for the same reason he was before me in the line but, he had a dollar bill in his hand, so the clerk, acting under orders told him that all the 35c beds wexe sold out and that they only had one dollar rooms left. I only had forty cents so the 35c. beds were not sold out yet. The seaman seeing that I could get a bed for 35¢ and he could not, inquired why, if he was in front of me in the line, when he asked for a 35c bed the beds were sold out. The clerk then told him to take the one dollar room or get out the seaman would do neither, so the clerk called the cop at the door and they put the seaman out by force, This morning the man tried to collect the dollar that he had paid for the room, in which he was not allowed to sleep in last night, and hey kicked him out again, without ightly his. “A SEAMAN” Tube and Sheet Still Laying Off South Chicago, Ill. Daily Worker: ‘The Youngtown tube and sheet is still laying off workers from the mill, The workers have to produce more now than hefore. Here in this mill from last year about one hundred workers have been laid off and now they pro- duce still more in 8 hours than before. Now they cast in 8 hours 200,000 ton each gang and before 160,000 to 175,000. The superintendent of the mill f sorry for the workers.

The worker rushed and stopped the crusher, but was too late. The worker was ground all to pieces.

Lessons for Workers. This shows to us workers how much the capitalists care for us. Not one capitalist paper says any- thing of this terrible accident. They keep that a secret that we workers face such dangers inside the shops. The Chicago capitalists are very good in giving publicity for gang- |sters. When Zuta got killed there were headlines in every paper. And when a worker dies in an accident so terrible nobody knows anything about it, He has just disappeareed from the earth. We Must Organize, How can we eliminate those ac- cidents, wsge-cuts and speed-up? Only one solution is left for us workers and that is to organize our- selves in militant industrial unicns. Then we will be able to improve our conditions and prevent accidents in the shops. Crane Speeds Up Men. The Crane shop now increases daily the speed-up. One worker had to do the work of three for starving wages the workers are receiving, and the Crane Company is so de- termined to keep the workers from jorganizing they always have police | there to arrest workers for distribu- | tion of leaflets. The police are al- ways on guard at the Crane shops. With the WORKER CORRESPONDENT! A worker in Bloomfield, N. J. us: “I am submitting to you ‘my first and I fear rather feeble at- tempt at journalism, but I kould deeply appreciate a few helpful fective articles. Perhaps you could recommend a good book on this subject.” toa * Worker correspondents write directly from the shops. They are not professional or amateur jour- nalists, but as the namie implies, worker correspondents. The lan- guage they write is, or should be, the workers shop language. Workers can contribute to the Daily Worked most effectively by writing as they would talk to a fel- low worker in telling about con- ditions in their shops, of conditions in their town, etc. Read some of the letters on this page and see if it is not so, 5h oe Ne The Central Bureau for Worker Correspondents plans to issue a small handbook for worker corres- pondents to help the worker cor- respondent in their work. We want to know what the worker correspondents thinks about such a handbook, and how many would support such a pro- ject. Write in and tell us. ‘EMDEN’ SAILORS PUT ON TRIAL FOR ‘MUTINY’ BERLIN (1.P.S.).—A trial for high treason is being held by the 4th penal senate of the supreme court of justice, connected with the events on the “Emden.” It will be remembered that during a forelgn cruise made by the “Emden” in 1929, some of the crew sung the “International” and hoisted a red flag. They were punished and ex- pelled from the navy. When the “Emden” went abroad again in 1930, revolutionary leaflets were distrib- uted among the crew. Some work- ers and one seaman, charged with having distributed these leaflets, are now on trial. Vote Commu: hints on how to contribute ef- | $7-$11.

All the workers with the excep- | tion of about 75 are Negroes. Our conditions are very bad. We work from 7:15 in the morning till 5:80 in the evening with 45 minutes for lunch, On Mondays we work one hour extra for which we get no extra pay. Wages Low The wages are pretty bad also. I am now working here for two years and I am still making $11 a week. Of course I am receiving more than others who just started working here. The girls who just | got jobs get only $7 a week, while the boy beginners receive $10 a week to start with. In some depart- ments the girls do piece work and if they work very hard they make up to $14 and $16 a week. This is about the highest you can make here. Hard Work The work here is very hard. The air is very bad, especially in the | Summer time. The windows are |always kept closed and we only have the artificial ventilation which is installed in the plant. We have no chance to improve any of these | conditions as we are today, as the |boss does not care whether we can support ourselves or not. I wonder how we could act if we could have a union here in the shop. I am sure that most of the girls would organize if we could explain to them just what we mean by a union and how the union is going to work to their benefit and not for the bosses, Anyway, I'll try my best to get the young workers to- gether and tell all I know about the union and ask them to join.

NEW YORK.—The national of- fice of the Trade Union Unity League here has already issued a call to build the unions and the un- employed councils of the T. U. U. L. for strike against wage-cuts and for support of the Workers’ Unem- ployment Bill of the Communist Party. A series of city conferences on unemployment is called by the T. U. U. L., to meet Sept. 28, in the chief industrial cities, including Minneapolis, where the T. U. U. L. leads the box workers’ strike now. The conferences will work out fur- ther details of the united fight of |the jobless and exploited workers | for the shorter work day and higher wages and for unemployment insur- of capitalist government, and they jare likely to call state conferences on unemployment. In addition, the national office of | the T. U. U. L, calls for building of a central “Organize and Strike Fund” of $100,000 to use in just such situations as the present Min- neapolis strike. It is anticipated that there will be many such strike in the face of the present wave of wage-cuts. The Marine Workers’ Industrial Union, affiliated to the T. U. U. L., in the midst of its preparations for an Atlantic coast conference in Phil- adelphia, which will probably lead to the sharpest kind of struggle on the aterfront, endorses the T. U. U. L. “Strike and Organize Fund” and is raising $2,000 as its share. The M. W. '. U. not only cai!s on its locals to immediately mobilize, but calls for the support of the cam- ‘paign right on the job through its )sbip and dock committees YOUTH DAY TODAY IN LUXURY CAMP Martial Law Declared Managers Grind Labor in Shanghai | —Inmates Swill Food (Continued From Page One.) | (Continued trom Page One) | Sept. 9.

For months the discontent among the city bourgeoisie, great and small }and the feudal landholders, all eon- | nected with the armed forces by} class interests, was growing with | the crisis. Also the workers, resisting speed up and wage cuts and unemplo. ment, were striking in greater num- bers and with more violent demon- strations. On August 1, 20,000 workers demonstrated with the Com- | munist Party in Buenos Aires. For a week Irigoyen was bar- ricaded in the government palace while the commanders of the armed forces vacillated, urged on by a de- termined nucleus to revolt.
