Production Risel Will Be With Less Workers By HARRY GANNES ery employed worker in the n ates fears unemployment. Ten million have lost that fear—they now dread death by starvation. When the Metropolitan Life Insur- ance Co. made a survey of unemploy- ment in the United States, their only report showed that part-time em- ployment was much worse than any- one had dreamed of before. Their figures stated at least nine million were entirely out of work, and about 20 million effected by part time em- ployment, ranging from one day a week to three or four. This disease of capitalism, unem- ployment, is a cancer ‘that can never be wiped out, without destroying the | system. Let us look at the growth of the present unemployment situa- tion and what the future holds for weg recon i “TUNUFACTURING " | von © PEDO NMEA Seca me “ws ss owe The above chart of the Federal Reserve Board shows that after the 1920-22 crisis, though production jumped vp to 300 per cent, the number of workers employed, after a short upspurt, began to fall. The heavy line shows the turn of pro- duction, while the broken line shows the trend of employment. With speed-up and increased efficiency even if production, which is now still dropping, goes up, the process of the elimination of workers will go on, increasing the permanent job- less army. There are so many on part-time, tliat an. inerease in pro- duction would not mean the re- hiring of more workers. the workers, based on the facts of the economic crisis. Industrial Reserve Army Senator Wagner. and dozens of “distinzuished” professors stated that in 1928 there were between five and six million out of work. That was the period when Hoover was howling about s “prosperity. In 1929 there was a minimum of three million out of work—and a rec- ord was made in production! An in- dustrial reserve army—a certain num. ber of unemployed workers—ts a per- manent feature of capitalism. When over-production comes, when capital- ist industry flops, then millions more are shoved out of work. More still. Even when production was increasing, there was a steady decrease in the number of workers employed. This was due to rationalization, that is, in- troduction of more efficient machin- ery, sre-d-up, squeezing more work out of those emploved. me*ing one ™man do the work of two. and so on. After the Stock Crash After. the steck market crash, at least. five million were unemoloyed. Factories clneed. Everythine slumped. Ro markets. even thav~h the workers ‘Too much was nroduced. There were were himery. Too much wheat, too many clothes. too many houses, so logic. of capitalism demands workers become unemployed, starve, freeze and be evicted. ‘The crisis grew worse all the time. The number of unemployed jumped about 300,000 a month after the stock market crash. Tt went to six million, then seven, eight, nine and now ten! There is no end in sight yet. That is, the crisis 1s getting worse and more will be thrown out of work. Never inthe history of capitalism has there been such a larre body of men and women forced to face starvation. Senator Caraway of Arkansas savs 1.009 die a day of starvation in this “richest country. in the world.” The Outlook But what of the future? The bosses string the unemnloyed along with the belief that “better days are coming.” and that thenresent misery will be forzotten in the s»lendor of prosperity to ashine soon, There is nothing fur- ther fram the tenth. There is no-indication whatever of any rrowth in the productive forces for years to come. No capitalist egency of anv weight has yet stated that “normal” ean come about in less than @ year or two, But this will net nut more’ workers to work. ‘The very proeess by which the capi- talists hone tovineresse their output is by firlne workers, by increasing ra- fionalization, by more speed-up, to keep up their profits and to capture @ greater share of the world market by cheaper. goods. This is the history ee ae ‘Tt will be more true of “For the Next 10 Years" A chart rvblished by the Federal Reseove- Rev Bullvtin (and reprinted tate cbse the Daily Workers: Greetings to Issues Leaflet Telling An eight-page leaflet has been is- sued by the Central Committee of the Communist Party, distributed to all new members, entitled “Revolution- ary Greetings.” We print below the introductory remarks. Besides there is a section on “What to Read,” as well as short statements on “Democ- racy and Discipline,” “Some Basic Communist Duties,” and Structure of the Communist Party: Dear Comrade: Today you have become a full- | fledged member of the Communist | Party of the United States and of | the Communist International. We | welcome you in our ranks as a new recruit to the international army of millions, who, under the banner of Leninism, is fighting for the eman- cipation of mankind from the yoke of capitalism. We greet you in the name of thou- sands of fighting Communists in America. We greet you in the name of those proletarian fighters whom capitalist “justice” has thrown into its jails and prisons. We greet you in the name of those comrades whom the murderously brutal capitalist police have killed on the picket line and in workers’ dem- onstrations. We greet you as one who steps into the ranks of revolu- tionists to finish with us what they died for, the Proletarian Revolution. We greet you in the name of the millions of Communists the world over, with whom we are joined in our World Party, the Communist In- ternational. We greet you in the name of the Russian Bolsheviks, whose examples you are pledged to follow. We remind you that through your voluntary entrance into our Party you have pledged yourself to carry by all means the struggle for the over- throw of bourgeois rule in accordance with the decisions of the Party. From now on, the decisions of the Party and the decisions of the Communist International are your highest com- mand. The duties of solidarity and discipline in struggle are not easy and you must take them seriously. You have not merely come to us to manifest your approval of us and to pay your dues. If you want to be a Communist then your whole life and all your activities must be devoted to Communism. You cannot bé a Party member only in Party meetings. You must be a Communist in your work, in your shop, in your home and ia every organization to which you be- Jong. You must fulfill your Commu- nist duty at every post the Party as- signs to you. If you want to do your duty as a Communist, then you must disregard all taunts and sarcasms, all insults and hate to which all of us are subjected. You must tirelessly devote yourself to the task of absorbing the tremen- dous experience which the interna- tional proletariat has gained in its struggle for emancipation, and whose expression is Marxism-Leninism. The Proletarian Revolution, the Dictator- ship of the Proletariat, demands of each member of the Party that leads the revolution the development of ex- traordinary abilities, sacrifices and endurance. Think of what the 500,000 Bolsheviks did when under the lead- ership of Lenin, they led a nation of 160,000,000 people through four years of the sharpest civil war. For all these great duties we can offer you only the right, as a comrade, with us to decide the role and fate of our Party, the Party which in the visible future will’ decide over the fate of this country. Your coming into our Party is our guarantee that you are fully pre- shows that after each crisis, though the population grows, the number of workers employed was reduced. At the same time, production jumped up. No matter whether production rises to the so-called “normal”—and there is no indication of this yet—it will be done with a constant decrease in the number of workers employed. It was not without reason that the leading capitalist statisticians, meet- ing in Washington in 1929 at the be- ginning of the present crisis, declared that the main problem before the in- dustry in the United States for the next ten years would be unemploy- ment. ‘The permanent reserve army of un- employed after this crisis will be more than double. Meanwhile the army of unemployed constantly recruits new workers to its ranks. ‘This is the prospect of the unem- ployed as long as capitalism lasts. It shows the fight for unemployment in- surance not is an immediate Pressing matter but is one that will effect the entire working class, em- Floyed or unemployed, a \Commamist Party Pranis Its Duties of New Recruits; Also Contains Fundamental Pamphlets New Members Aims of Parties and pared to carry the consequences of membership in the Party—to carry on revolutionary activities under the direction of the Party, and to submit to revolutionary discipline. Without this your membership. would be worthless to the working class. With- out this your membership would not be a sign of your devotion to the revolutionary interests of the work- ing class but a sign of indifference or worse. If you have decided to march with the Communist Party to the very end, to victory, despite all persecution, de- spite disappointment, despite hard- ships and hatred, then comrade, be welcome. You can then from today on call yourself the proud fighting comrade of Ruthenberg, Bill Hey- wood, John Reed and Lenin, and bear the honored name of Commu- nist, of Bolshevik!

HOLD ENGDAHL ON CANADA FRAMEUP Police Write Speech; Faces 20 Years MONTREAL, Canada, Feb. 8.—Up- holding the police frame-up, the court here held ‘J, Louis Engdahl, national secretary of the Interna- tional Labor Defense, and Bella Gor- don for trial on the charges of “un- lawful assembly” and “sedition,” growing out of a meeting addressed by Engdahl in Prince Arthur Hall on Jan. 30. The case will next come up for pleading on Feb. 20. At the mass meeting Engdahl was allowed to speak for only about two minutes, during which time he ex- tended the greetings of the Ameri- can workers. A stenographic account of all he said was taken down. In addition to the transcript, however, the police came into court today with the claim that Engdahl made other declarations, as follows: “I have come ‘ere to start the revolution. I have come here to help you overthrow the capitalists and their tool, the govern- ment.” It was on the basis of this manu- factured evidence that the court held Engdahl for trial for sedition, which carries a 20-year prison sentence. Statements attributed to Bella Gor- don, Montreal secretary of the Can- adian International Labor Defense, who was chairman: of the meeting, were as fololws: -“We protest against fake capitalist class justice, against police stool- pigeons framing up workers. We protest the persecution of foreign- born workers and deportations.” ‘The court openly declared this was serlous enough to hold her for trial on the sedition charge. DETROIT HOLDS EARLY BAZAAR Working Women Busy With Preparations ‘The working women of Detroit and vicinity are busy preparing for a big annual bazaar which will take place on February 22, 1931, at 1343 E. Ferry Avenue. According to reports from the branches of the Federation, it looks very much like we are going to have @ successful bazaar, as every delegate reported about certain activities of their branches in preparing for the bazaar. With the combined efforts of the branches of the International Labor Defense, that are also going to take part in th ework of the bazaar, we can look for the biggest success we have ever had. Readers of The Working Woman are called upon to do something for the bazaar.

Improve While Millions Starve in USA "i Difference In Aims; of Communism and Capitalism By SAM DON. With the help of the Five Year Plan, the Soviet Union has abolished unemployment. Capitalist America is increasing its army of. unemployed. So is the entire capitalist world. And today, there are over 25 million un- employed workers facing starvation in the capitalist. countries. One of the most leading bourgeois economists, Mr. Jordan, stated at the end of 1930 that: “100 per cent employment should not be the aim of American in- dustries, because extra labor would always be needed for infant indu: tries or for meeting an emergen Mr. Jordan let the cat out of the bag. It is not the aim of capitalism to improve the conditions of the workers, to raise their standurd of living. On the contrary. The sim of capitalism is to make profit out of the labor of the workers, and therefore, Mr. Jor- dan is right when he says that “100 per cent employment should not be the aim of American industries.” The capitalists, through their spokesmen, state that they need unemployment to meet an emergency. What sort of an emergency? Evidently, to cut wages and introduce Mr. Hoover's stagger system. Now let us contrast. the above state- ment of the bourgeois economist with otoy, the head of the Soviet Union, at the recent session of the Central Executive Committee of the Soviet Union. He said: “There are various obvious signs of the improvement of the material | situation of the working masses. A year ago we had over a million un- employed workers in the Soviet Union. .Today, however, the unem- ployed problem is practically set- tled. Even further, there is a con- siderable lack of labor power in a number of districts, even a lack of unqualified workers. Another great sign of the improvement of the sit- uation of the working masses is the successful introduction of the 7- hour day. During 1931 the 7-hour day will be in force on all the rail- ways and for nine-tenths of our in- dustrial workers. Year after year the Soviet power has been able to Soviet Workers There is no unemployment in the Soviet Union, annual vacation of at least two weeks, which they spend in the villas that formerly belonged to the nobility and capitalists. In Rest Home All workers get an raise wages.” What are some of the figures? At the time of the announcement of the Five-Year plan, the Soviet Govern- ment still figured that at the end of the Five-Year plan there might be 400,000 unemployed. But the en- thusiasm of the toiling massés of the Soviet Union who followed the splen- did leadership of the Communist Party, have made such tremendous progress under the Five-Year plan, that already, in the third year of the plan, unemployment has been completely abolished. ‘The hours have been decreased and wages increased. The wages increased on the average 12¥% per cent for the two years of the’ Five-Year plan, and the total number of workers having the seven-hour working day, have by the end of the second year of the Five-Year plan, reached 43 per cent of the total number of workers, thus surpassing the task of the Five-Year plan by 3.5 per cent. And in the United States? 10 mil- lion unemployed. The leading bank- ers are openly calling for a wage- cutting offensive against the em~- ployed workers. Even the capitalist economic journal, the Annalist, is compelled to admit that in the year 1930, the workers in the United States were losing a billion dollars in wages per month. And what are the pros- pects for 1931? Not a whit brighter! Mr. Fish’s Gall The continuous progress of the Soviet Union and the continuous deepening of the crisis in the capi- talist countries gives nightmares to the ruling class. Any wonder that the American capitalists are grow- ing bloodthirsty for a war against the Soviet Union? Mr. Fish has the gall to speak of convict labor in the Soviet Union. He is anxious to have a fascist commission visit the Soviet Union with the excuse of “investi- gating” the existence of convict labor. But perhaps the information given by the bourgeois correspondent of the N. Y. Times, Mr. Duranty, will spare Mr. Fish the trouble of sending his mercenary investigators . . . Mr. Du- ranty, in the Feb. 5th issue of the N. Y. Times tells us: “The Soviet Union is hungry for qualified hands at a time when trained workers of Britain and Germany—not to mention America also—are literally hungry for jobs and food.” Perhaps Mr. Fish is still not con- vinced . . .We will quote one more section of this bourgeois journalist’s dispatch: “When the day comes that foreign workers here may write home and say, “Things are pretty good here, why don't you come along? There are jobs for everybody and plenty to eat, Russia is net so bad a place in which to live and there are no lay-offs or short time and you get all that is coming to you’—then im- migration to the Soviet Union will begin to rival the flood that poured into America.” Starving Children Wait On Breadline for Watery Milk By HELEN KAY “My father has been out of work for about a year. He has no money. We haven't got enought to pay rent, and the landlord says he will kick us out of the house if we don’t pay soon.” This was the answer given by a small under-nourished boy when asked why he stood in the bread- line of the Salvation Army at 3rd Ave, and 3rd St., in New York City. Other children gave the same an- swer. Waited in Line for Bread and Milk. They were all waiting in line for a loaf of bread and some watery milk. The bread and milk are sup- posed to feed the whole family for a day. The children come there early in the morning, before school hours, and wait in the cold and the rain outside the Salvation Army. While the oil barons of Oklahoma City wallow in riches the children of the jobless oil workers are forced to stand in line for some soup, Children are fainting of hunger in the schools daily. In many places children can- not even go to school because of lack of clothing. In Public School No. 55, in Brooklyn, New York, ten children fainted of hunger in one day. Two Negro workers children died of starv- ation in Brooklyn, N. Y. Solomon MacKenzie, their father, has been out of a job for nearly,a year. There were six children in the family. He needed milk and food for his chil- dren, but the jobless worker had no money, he could not get a job, and the children suffered. On November 13 the first child died of starvation, and three weeks later Ursala, her twin sister, died. A young Pioneer from Battle Creek, Michigan, writes in to tell us that the children of the workers “go to school half naked,” and that the jobless are living with their children “in the junk yards.” Everywhere we see children suffer- ing from the capitalist crisis. The children of the unemployed face ac- tual starvation. The children of workers whose wages are slashed face hunger. The children in the mining regions are falling like flies. Not one story but many has reached the press where dogs, pets of the family, haye been cooked and devoured by hungry miners’ kids, Pellagra, the scourge of the poor, the disease of malnutrition, is prevalent among the children. ‘Economie Crisis Undermines Child Health.” Even Dr. Kathryn McHale, of Washington, D. C., speaking at the sixteenth convention of the National Council of Women at the Riverside Church, was forced to admit that the economic crisis is undermining the health of working class children whose parents were either thrown into the streets to starve by the bos- ses or subjected to extensive wage- cuts. Dr. McHale further declared that only “8 per cent of the population had not been affected by the crisis” and that the health of practically all of the children of the country is being affected. She cited the fact that “more and more children are unable to get the better grade of milk and the fruit juices that doc- tors have said are necessary for them.” failed to point out that the childfen are actually starving to death and that other thousands are able to get any kind of milk, much less the better grade.

British Imperialists, Preparing War On USSR, Attack Soviet Goods LONDON, Feb, 6--With a record) of hypocrisy probably unrivalled even in the history of imperialism, the British imperialists today outdid) themselves in a “moral outburst” against the Soviet Union, based on the exploded slander of “forced.and convict. labor” in the republic and having for its purpose the intensify- ing of the war preparations against the Soviet Union. ‘Today’s outburst occurred in the House of Lords, traditional support- ers of slavery, including active aid to the Southern slave holders during the American Civil War. Unheedful of the groans and .curses of the frightfully oppresscei colonial millions of British Africa, India, etc., and of the misery of the British workers, Lord Phillimore demagogically at- tacked Soviet - goods, stating that British importers of Soviet goods were profiting “on the misery of thes2 poor weetehe House of “Lords Ped- ‘dles Lies of Czarist ( Emigres labor and prison camp systems.” Confining himself to the lies of the Czarist_ emigres and other imperial- ist, agents, Phillimore had no time to waste on the facts of forced and convict, labor, and actual slavery, in the British African colonies, with the misery of the African natives robbed of their lands and recruited by the South African government for forced labor in the diamond fields and gold mines. In his indigation against the Soviet Union, where the workers have overthrown his parasitic class and forced the former exploiters to work in order to earn the right to pool was laid in the slave trade. ‘The church, as usual, joined the re- actionary attack. The Bishop of Dur- ham, who evidently believes that the blessings of the church are sufficient to whitewash the sins of the British imperialists, wanted the British Em- pire to “disassociate” itself from Sov- jet trade.

But he admitted that there might be some logic in that reliance: ! “But with their experience, with MANDS FEB. 10TH!

They will run short- handed. This means more speed for the workers.
