Bosses Solution PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 6.—While| the capitalist candidates in Phila-| delphia are carrying on their battle on sham issues and soft-pedaling | the question of unemployment the city administration has taken “defi- nite steps” to act on the matter. The solution, of course, is not even in the form of appropriating a| | few dollars for relief. Mr. Billikopf, the head of a liberal welfare com- mittee, admits that Philadelphia has only spent $150,000 out of its sev-! eral hundred million dollar budget | ;for unemployment relief and the| | new budget which will be increased | | by $12,000,000 also has no provi- | sions for helping the unemployed. | Department of Public Safety through its director Schofield, is for an additional appropriation of five million dollars in order to add 2,000 more policemen to the present | force of 8,000 thus spending $27,-| 000,000 for police to club the unem- | ployed while there is not a cent for the relief of the unemployed. | Simultaneously, in order to improve | the efficiency of the department, the director decided to lay off all cops above sixty. This, incidental- ly according to Schofield, will help | to give more jobs to young men. The demand for 2,000 more po-/ licemen is closely linked up with the present economic crisis as ad- mitted both by Schofield and by President Judge McDevitt of the Common Pleas: Court, who admitted that as a result of the increase in unemployment the number of crim- inals is growing; that during the past 8 years the number of young workers between the ages of 16 and 20 arrested in Philadelphia aver- aged 12,000 a year and while the prominent judge endorses the plans of Mr. Schofield, he recommends that a Crime Prevention Bureau be | established which would help to pre- vent the young from indulging in| | violent demands on the property of the bosses.

Scores of; Negro workers were shot, several | of them mortally. A Carib settle-| ment in the hills was also attacked. Dominica one of the British] West Indian islands, has been hard hit by the world crisis. The Ne-| gro workers who, with the remnants | of the Carib people, and some Ariatics, make up the laboring or non-European part of the popula- tion, are faced with the direst pri-| vation and suffering as a result of | the growth of unemployment and the further slashing by the bosses | of the average island wage of 24| cents a day for 12 and 14 hours! labor. Dominica is the center of the lime juice industry in the West Indies. It is dominated vy the| Catholic Church in alliance with the bosses, and offers sharp contrasts of numerous splendid church build- ings and squalid thatched huts of the workers and peasants.
