STARTS A WAGE SLASHING DRIVE Office Workers Get It In the Neck (By a Worker Correspondent.) EAST PITTSBURGH, Pa.—With- out any notice the Westinghouse Electric and Manufacturing Co. on Dec. 1 cut the salary 7 per cent of all office employees. The working day was also reduced for half an hour of the office employees, but, as a rule, they will have to do as much work in the reduced time as they did before and often more than be- | fore. Warned of This. The Westinghouse Communist Shop Nucleus warned the workers in the September issue of its shop paper, “The Spark,” that the company was | preparing a wage-cut. This warning materialized now for the office em- ployees. ‘ In the shop there was no general wage reduction, but a systematic transfer and individual wage-cut. go on every day. The shop used to em- ploy, normally, about 23,000 and now lt does not employ even 10,000. Re- cently, about 400 students were laid off who were taking different courses and many of them were college grad- uates. A large number of these stu- dents completed more than one-half of their courses. ‘The company is now preparing a departmental reorganization, which will result again in layoffs of office employees in all capacities. All signs indicate that there is go- ing to be another wage-cut which | will involve all employees. Last year the company made more profit than ever before in its history and could well afford to reduce the hours, hire more men without re- ducing the income of the workers. But the bosses are in for profit and more profit. There is nothing for us to do but to organize. Altogether, the office and the shop employees, by means of our organized power and Solidarity, we shall prevent wage- cuts and materially improve our working and living conditions. Let us all join the Metal Workers’ In- dustrial League and fight off the bosses’ attack on our standards of living. as —An Office Slave. FORCE RELEASE OF FOPTESS COMM. (By a Worker Correspondent) ROCKFORD, Dec. 19.—The charges wsainst Gunnar Carlquist, John Marks, Grace Brown, V. Malmquist ) John Green, and Harry Lundborg, who were arrested Jast September at demonstrations and open air meet- ings called by the Communist Party ,and the Young Communist League, were dismissed last Thursday, when the trial was called. These comrades were given from 3%% to 7 months in jail in the police court. The cases were appealed by the International Labor Defense. The revolutionary working class organizations in Rockford, Ill, have during the whole summer fought for the right to the streets. The work- ers of Rockford have fought milit- antly, and through militant struggle forced the bosses to permit the workers the right to the streets. ‘The protest of the working class against starvation is’ growing, and that makes the bosses afraid. Re- cently we had in one weeks’ time two demonstrations for Unemploy- ment Relief in front of City Hall, the first one over 3,000 workers attended, the second one was held in zero weather, with more than 400 workers. At the first demonstration the mayor of the city and the aldermen fled, at the last one they had no chance to get away. Comrade Carlquist, T. U.U.L. secretary as the spokesman for the committee, presented the de- mands to the city council, was ar- rested. But when the workers marched up and into the council chamber in a mass, Carlquist was re- Jeased in a hurry and given the floor to present the demands for Unem- ployment Relief. Every member in the Unemployed Council and as many as possible . from other working class organiza- tions will be mobilized in the sign- ature drive for the Workers Social Insurance Bill.

Will Fight The prisoners who are crowded into this dungeonlike jail, are beginning to realize the importance of the fight the Daily Worker is making for the workers in general, and the foreign born in particular. Arresting the workers wholesale and subjecting them to such shameless persecution for the graft which is part of the revenue allowance of the capitalist system, is driving them into such organizations which are fighting for vernment.

It is\the right material to put before the people. I am suffering from over prosperity and am short of funds.

More Banks Crash. Sinc the smash-up of the Bank of the-U. S. a little over a week ago, there have been more than 50 other bank failures in the United States. On Saturday alone there were 12 bank crashes .in .North .Carolina, Georgia, Mississippi and Utah. The capitalist press is now suppressing most of the news of bank failures. Thus far there have been more than 1,100 bank failures since the 1st of January, 1930, with assets well over a half billion dollars. This is the largest number of bank failures for one year ever recorded in the United States. The losses for one week were over $50,000,000. » The pre- | diction of the Daily Worker tha. for the last 15 days of the year there would be at least 100 bank failures is being more than borne out, show Up Federal Reserve. The Journal of Commerce in two special editorials in its Sat y is- sue shows that all the talk about the “soundness” of the Federal Reserve System is a tissue of lies. The Fed- eral Reserve System has been aiding the bank failures and profiting by it. What Hoover and others denied is now taking place all over the United States, namely, money. Makes Economic Crisis Worse. The crash of these 1,100 banks, arising out of the economic crisis, in turn is making business conditions much worse.

At a huge demonstration yesterday morning of white and native work- ers under the leadership of the Com- munist Party, the Red Flag was dis- played and all passes, hut, poll and dog tax receipts were burned. An afternoon procession was at- tacked by police, the natives defend- jing themselves and fighting back With pickshafts. It was during this clash that the/casualties occurred. pe ae Dingaan’s Day occurs on Dec. 16. It is the anniversary of the decisive defeat of the South African native chief Dingaan by the robber forces of British imperialism. It is used by the,Communist Party of South Af- rica, the majority of whose members ‘are native workers and peasants, aS a rallying point in the struggle against British imperialism. Under the leadership of the Com- munist Party, the South African na~ tives are defying the vicious pass system of the imperialist oppressors, and refusing to pay hut, poll and dog taxes, Unlike the Garvey misleaders who put their faith in the League of Na- tions, and in the Labor Government of Great Britain, and the League of Nations as_a league of imperialist thieves to protect their plunder against the rising revolt in the colo- nies, the revolutionary natives know MacDonald and-his government for the social fascist tool of imperialism. And, rejecting the illusions of Ger- veyism, the natives of South Africa have rallied to the Comintern which throughout the world leads the struggles of the oppressed masses, and links up the struggles of the colonial masses with the struggles of the workers in the imperialist coun- tries, thus establishing a united international working-class front against the common enemy. fighting is reported in South China, in the Kiangsi province, where the government troops are trying to ad- vance into Red territory.
