om DAILY hree WORKER, NEW YORK, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 235, 1930 Page I Washington Bosses Court Says Women’s Minimum Wage Law Unconstitutional Opens Wedge for Drive on Women Toilers, Wages for Women and Girls Hits New Low; Layoffs Now a Daily Occurrence (By a Worker Correspondent) SEATTLE, Wash.—The Federal Court in Tacoma, Washington, has re- cently declared the minimum wage law for women unconstitutional on the grounds that it impairs the right of women to work for as low wages as they wish by specifying that they shall receive $2.20 for an eight-hour day, or $1.50 for apprentices for six months. Even these rotten wages are too high for the store and factory owners in this state to pay! But this law has always been a joke, as even if it were obeyed is has so many legal loop- holes in it that it would be hard to find wages, hours or conditions that are so rotten they would not be possible under it. 16 AUTO WORKERS DO WORK-OF 70 While Boss Rides in a Rolls-Royce (By a Worker Correspondent.) SOUTH BEND, Ind.—The slave- @riving system in Studebaker’s is on the order of the day. The bosses are devising every means and ways to speed up the workers so as to pile up more profits for themselves and their flunkeys. 8 The Studebaker factory is divided into many departments. In one de- partment there were 70 workers em- ployed a year ago, now there are only 16, doing the same amount of ‘work as previously. In other words, ene man is doing the work of 5. | Espionage System. The company keeps a strict watch over the activities of its employes outside the shop. Every day the; bosses call certain picked workers in| the main office and question them as to their activities in the revolu- tionary unions, The bosses are espe- cially hard on the Ukrainian and Russian workers. They accuse the workers of being members in the Communist Party and the Young Communist League, so as to have a good reason to discharge them. The workers have such miserable conditions that they don’t even know how much wages they are get- ting. For instance, every department is on piece-work basis. The workers all work piece-work in a group. That is all production in one department is done by that one particular group of workers on piece-work basis, The more they produce together the more they make individually. Pushers Speed Men. ! The assistant foreman gets a cer- | tain rate, the women workers an- ether and the regular men workers still another rate. Of course the as- sistant foreman does not work, he is the pusher and therefore speeds up the workers. After all nobody knows how much he gets till the end of the week and then the timekeepers will change and twist these figures So much that each worker will only get a few dollars. per week. The pushers always get the biggest share out of this piece-work produc- tion. The plant is working only 2 or 3 days per week and the company Prefers to hire Polish workers only. Can't Get Drink. ‘The workers are not even allowed to drink water and they are com- pelled to stay on the job until the whistle blows. In the morning every man must be on the job, ready to start working even before the whistle blows. These are some of the damnable conditions under which the workers in Studebaker must slave. While these rotten conditions pre- vail in’ his factory, young Stude- baker rides around town in a $10,000 Rolls Royce. His summer home on the northeast side and his palace on West Washington St. which costs a half a million dollars, all robbed from the workers’ wages, stand as damn- able monuments of exploitation un- der the capitalist system. Conditions in Armour Packing Co. Bad and Pay Low, Hours Long (By a Worker Correspondent) CHICAGO, Ill.—Just a few words on the conditions in’ the Armour Packing Co. The departments are badly equipped and insanitary. The company doesn’t care under what conditions we work as long as it gets the profits. And our wages are nothing to boast about. The highest pay we get is 42 cents an hour, working 9 hours. We have to work real hard for this. The straw bosses get 60 and 70 dollars a week, They drive the workers at full speed. We have to work for these parasites like this because we are unorganized. If only workers would get class-conscious and throw these bosses and parasites off their backs. We will never accomplish anything unless we organize and fight against such conditions. The Food Workers’ Industrial League is carrying on a campaign to organize the stock yards workers. All workers employed at the stock yards must join this mili- tant organization and carry on the struggle for higher wages and cleaner work rooms. —A Stockyard Work, Many Wage-Cuts. Wage-cuts and lay-offs occur al- most every day here in the stores, factories and offices where girls work, Sears Roebuck has announced cuts up to 165 in the retail depart- ment alone as soon as Christmas is over. This will leave almost a skele- ton force doing the work. American Can, Bemis Bag and several other factories employing girls have laid off in the last week, and the can- neries, one of which is still running a night shift, are either down or will soon be practically closed. Office Workers Hit. Wages are very rarely above the “minimum” for factory work. Some department stores are paying their girls only $10 in certain departments. In the garment factories, of course, wages are lower yet for beginners. I talked to one waitress who had two babies to support and was getting $2 for 10 hours, with a split shift which forced her to sleep four hours in the early morning and four in the afternoon. Even the office work- ers are very hard hit, many experi- enced and capable bookkeepers and stenographers being out of work. ‘Trained but inexperienced stenos are asked to work for $5 or $10 a week to learn, and even at that must have many qualifications, even the color of eyes and the height being speci- | fied. Even domestic work, usually con- Sidered a last resort by most girls, is now hard to get and pays less. Girls that used to get $60 a month now have to take $50 or $40. And most jobs are under $30, board arid room, down to $10 and $15 a month. Sometimes, even, they ask a girl to work for nothing but her board and room. And usually the less you get the harder you work, making the girl do the cooking, washing and everything. A great deal of propaganda is be- ing put out blaming unemployment on girls and women, especially mar- ried women, Who work. Working women, working girls, we must unite to expose these lies and get decent wages and fight unemployment! —An Unemployed Girl Worker, Defend Sabotagers in USSR and MacDonald (Continued from Page One) munists to clean house,” said Hill- quit in his speech in defense of the sabotage ring whose leaders have just confessed that they were part of an international war plot against the Soviet Union. Hillquit had to remark that in his attack on the U. S. S. R. he “found himself a strange bed-fellow to “certain gentlemen in Washington.” His speech, as also that of Alger- non Lee, chairman, and Panken, reeked with wild accusations that the Soviet Government is a “betrayal of democracy” and “maintains a bloody rule.” Most of the sentamentalism of the socialists was lavished on the “heroic victims of the G. P. U.,” that is, the sabotagers, and the “unfor- tunate peasants who have a little property which is being taken away,” that is, the kulaks on whom social- ists and capitalists alike founded their hopes for a revival of capital- ism. The kulaks are vanishing be- fore the sweep of the farm collec- tivization movement and their Amer- ican friends are wild about it. Menshevik Campaign. This meting was arranged as part of a world-wide campaign ordered by the menshevik exiles in Berlin when the first batch of sabotagers was arrested some time ago, The social- ist party and the white guard Rus~ sians in New York secretly arranged to hold it on Nov. 9. The socialist party attempted to keep the arrange- ment a secret during the election campaign, but it was stupidly ex+ posed in an article in the Russian monarchist paper, Novoe Russkoe Slovo. The socialist leaders did not deny the report, but kept still, and the meeting was postponed from Nov, 9 to Nov. 23, i: The socialist leaders attempt a bit of demagogy by declaring they pre- fer Communism to fascism or czar- ism and are against an embargo on Soviet trade. At the same time they provide all possible propaganda help to the.war plotters. SHANGHAI—On the 7th of No- vember Chinese workers and students organized street demonstrations in various parts of Shanghai in honor of the Russian Revolution and in support of the Soviet Union. Large forces of police dispersed the dem- onstrations. Much revolutionary lit- erature was distributed. Store Tailors Get Wage Slash Longer Hours (By a Worker Correspondent) NEW YORK.—I think it’s time for the readers of the Daily Worker to |know about this trade also. Up till now the Needle Trades In- dustrial Union tried to organize all of its branches into the union except one which although is not in the line of mass production yet it has thousands of workers in its ranks. This trade is the pressers and tail- ors working in stores all over the city. 1 Cut Wages. In this trade a few years ago we worked about 9 hours a day, 6 days |@ week, and received from 35 to 40 dollars for it. But now since the general crisis of business and since the dress operators have a short season, this line is flooded with work- ers so much that when there is an advertisement for one man, you find 25 in line; some of them getting there as early as 5:30 a. m. thinking that if they get there early they will have more chance of getting the job. Of course when the boss sees the mob he takes advantage of this (such as pitting one against the other) and now instead of $35 to $40 we get $25 to $30 for a week's work. If you don’t work a half hour over- time (without pay) or if you don’t get m 8 o'clock sharp they make you feel that there is someone outside waiting to take yeur job, In other words they are doing you a favor in letting you work under such rotten conditions. Yet not one of the unions ever thought about organizing these workers, Why? I don't know. I know that whenever there is talk of a union most of them express the idea that they would be only too| willing to join. Some of them have gone so far as starting to organize but they had no one to lead them. And now they are waiting to see when the labor move- ment will begin to think of them. —A Presser. “TIMES” SPREADS LIES ON CRISIS Workers Being Laid} Off Every Day (Continued from Page One) point in the history of American capitalist economy. What does this mean for the worker? More workers were thrown out of work last week. More plants closed, output dropped to the lowest point of the whole crisis. The Federal Reserve Board, in a release from Washington, dated Nov. 23 says: “Industrial production both at mines and factories decreased 3 per cent in Oct, “This decline reflected chiefly a further decrease in the output of steel ingots, contrary to the usual seasonal movement, and a larger than seasonal decline in the out- put of automobiles.” From all cities repélt*bour in to the Daily Worker of plants elesing, thousands more layoffs, wage cuts, Even the Wall Street organ, the Journal of Commerce on its front page Monday prints a story from Chicago, with the headline “Busi- ness in Chicago Found Unfavorable. Mercantile Sales Slump During ‘Week—Employment Declines,” The details of this story are gloomy. More workers fired. More added to the breadlines. Stores and factories laying off big shares of their already sharply cut forces. Jules. I. Bogen, one of the editors of the Journal of Commerce in the same issue goes on to point out the worsening economic conditions. He reports that so far this year 740 banks have closed, involving aggre- gate deposits of $312,419,000. He says this will make business worse. The agrarian situation is getting worse all the time. He says: “The steel industry is operating at only slightly above 40 per cent of capacity. Building activity re- mains at low ebb for the country as a whole. . . The volume of retail trade continues disappointing for the mo st part.” And so on all along the line. For the workers this means more hunger, more jobless, more wage cuts. Do not believe the lies in the capi- talist press which are printed for the express purpose to keep the workers starving a few months long- er in the hope conditions will better. The facts point the reverse. They will get worse. Don’t Be Fooled. The Daily Worker and the other Communist papers have been the only papers in the United States that have told the truth of the crisis to the workers, for a whole year pointing out the real trend of events and predicting the increase in un- employment, The fact is that un- employment, despite the capitalist les, is mounting all the time. Fight, don’t starve! Collect signa tures for the Unemployment Insur- ance Bill! Don't be fooled by the Mes in the capitalist press! ers has started. Word comes in from The following is taken from their report: “All organizations will be visited and asked to elect a labor press agent. Party units will elect party press agents. These will constitute the district Daily Worker machin- ery. This committee will meet reg- ularly one a week. The first press conference will be held Wednesday. “Three Red Sundays will be or- ganized during the campaign.” CHICAGO SENDS IN INCREASE OF 87 DAILY E. Thomas, district Daily Worker representative in Chicago writes: “We started the campaign for 60,- 000 readers later than we should but we can see results already.” | He incloses new orders amounting | to 87 daily. “In the city itself I am sure that not only will we be able to fulfil our quota but our objective in this cam- paign is to establish a permanent apparatus for the Daily Worker.” Chicago! Take a look at that 1000 Detroit order! There's a thought. 20 Jingo Societies in Conference Hear Woll (Continued from Page One) U. S. S. R. workers for taking from the landlords and capitalist of Rus- sia, the land and factories. \ “The danger is not that the Sov- iet will have any considerable suc- cess in any direction, but that, if we permit her, she will contaminate us by her economic disease”, said Woll, and urging an embargo stated: “Why should we not quarantine all of our workers from the competi- tion of Soviet slave labor?” Continue Embargo Plan. At the time Woll made his state- ments, the U. S. Treasury depart- ment was announcing further pro- gress in its plan for an order to stop imports from U. 8. S. R. on the re- quest of any private citizen, who charges they are “convict made.” As finally modified, the order allows the treasury department to keep them out entirely by claiming it is “not satisfied with the proof.” Secretary of Treasury Mellon yes- terday signed the order, throwing all burden of proof in case of a charge of convict origin on the U. S. S. R. The National Lumber Manu- facturers Association, the American Manganese Producers’ Association and the A. F. of L. have been negoti- ating with the treasury department to have the plans drawn up. Woll and the treasury department seem only to be stimulated to fresh attacks on Soviet trade by reports of the U. S. department of commerce that for the first six months of 1930 the Soviet purchases in U. S. were 148 per cent greater than in the same six months of 1929. Cutting off this trade would of course throw more American workers out of their jobs.

P. recognized that its chief support consists of the peasants, {. e., the kulak sections and the well-to-do sections of the middle peasants, without whom the kulaks cannot be a sufficiently practical force to cope with the tasks set by the W. P. P. For this purpose the C. ©, of the W. P. P. planned to make use of a peasant (kulak) rebellion under the leadership of the W. P. P., as the necessary means of struggle against the Soviet Government. (2) At the same time the leaders of the W. P. P. set themselves the task of consolidating all other ele- ments who were hostile to the Soviet Government (the remnants of the old governing classes) for the purpose of utilizing them in the struggle against the Soviet Government. (3) The C. C. of the W. P, P. considered it necessary to carry on sabotage as a means of damaging Socialist construction and supporting the capitalist and kulak sector of the national economy. (4) The leaders of the W. P. P. utilized their position as responsible workers in government institutions in the U. S. S, R. in order to try and destroy the policy of the Soviet Gov- ernment, and to direct the work of the state apparatus in the spirit of the bourgeois program of the W. P. P. (5) In this work for distorting the revolutionary line of the Soviet Gov- ernment the W. P.

The capitalists everywhere, fearful of the success of the Five-Year Plan, were increasing their war maneuvers. Exposing the purpose of the ru- mors about assassinations and “re- volts,” Stalin said that there “is an organized campaign by certain groups centered in Riga and Berlin for the purpose of deflecting atten- tion from interventionist schemes which we exposed.” Trial Starts Today. The trial of the counter-revolu- tionists begins today. It will be cov- ered by four staff members of the Daily Worker. Mike Gold and A. B. Magill will cover the proceedings, while Fred Ellis and Bill Gropper, famous labor artists, will send us many drawings of the event. Stalin, in his interview, went on to point out some of the other rea- sons for the rumors. “They want to make the world think the Soviets started this counter revolution trial as a smoke screen to hide our supposed star- vation, unrest and so forth. The tions are arising simultaneously fact that these imaginative inven- in various cities proves to me it is a deliberate plan to mislead the world’s public opinion.” When Lyons asked Stalin about the prospects of the world revolution Stalin answered that it would be dif- ficult to answer briefly, but if he had to put his answer into two words he would say: “Prospects good!” Re- garding the United States and the question of recognition, Stalin said: “If it cannot establish political ties with the United States, the Soviet Union at least desires to strengthen its economic ties with America.” Workers! Defend the Soviet Union! It should be clear to every worker that the lies which are now com- pletely blasted were circulated for definite reasons. The war prepara- tions are growing precisely because the Five-Year Plan is advancing at tremendous pace. The workers in the Soviet Union are working for peace, they make every proposal to maintain peace. But every action of they are calc ed to provide ap-j withdrawn and proximately 38,000,000 quir |ceeded in peace. 2.

The state poultry trust organ- ized in March of this year has € poultry farms with 300,000 birds. Before the end of the current year this number is expected to exceed 500,000. Modern incubators are be- ing built for 6,000,000 eggs and pro- vision is being made for 25,000,000 chickens. 7. The state linen and hemp trust has 58 plantations with a total area of 448,000 hectares. 8 The state seed trust has 43 farms with a total of 871,000 hec- tares. The half of these farms will be sowed in the spring of 1931. 9. The state dairy trust organized in August of this year has now 42 farms with a total of 1,450,000 hec- tares of land and 35,000 milch cows. 10. The state vegetable trust has cows. In 1931 it will have 250,000 milch cows and a vegetable produc- tion of 1,700,000 tons. <§ 2 Oil Trusts Plan to Attack Soviet Oil (Continued from Page One) their hands cn and to deprive the Soviet Union of their use. Not long ago the Standard Oil and the Dutch Shell carried on a severe battle over Russian oil. Deterding has financed the Czarist white-guards and every counter-revolutionary force working against the Soviet Union. He is one of the backers of the counter- revolutionary specialists who plotted to overthrow the Soviet government with the help of the imperialists, and whose trial begins today in Moscow. According to the latest London dis- patches, these two antagonistic forc- es have temporarily buried their dif- ferences for a common attack against the Soviet Union. the capitalists is driving toward war. Only the workers, who are suffering from unemployment, starvation and wage-cuts, can call a halt to the bosses’ war maneuvers. Demand that instead of spending billions for war preparatioris they turn this money over to the unemployed for unem- ployment insurance. Defend the Soviet Union! New York City.
