U. was successful in sum- moning a meeting of fifty workers The bundles of the Daily Worker were sold to the last copy, and then a call came to the Party office of the district to send speakers to Port Huron to address a big mass meet- ing. Comrades A. Gerlach, Sarah Vv or (Daily Worker district agent), and a Spanish comrade responded. The mass meeting, which took place or March 6, proved to be a great s ess, with over 175-200 attending. speakers were rewarded with a ost. enthusiastic audience. An un- employed council was properly. formed and the executive has al- only nien days have passed since the first attempt was made to acquaint the workers of Port Huron with our Party press, and we re- ceived word from Comrade U. to in- crease the bundle of the Daily Worker. The most important mes- is to send an organizer to have = metal workers in Port Huron or- also for a supply of neces- literature. All this led ening of/old militancy in cme wo! rs in Port Huron to come out and be ready to take the lead. Comrades, there ar ea good many cities and towns like Port Huron in ° to respond to the ‘vo struggle. All that is needed is to carry the message of the movement It is a great task. It is| high time now, while the worker is | it hardest by this crisis, to put all | cur energy and all our efforts to do share as Communists should. our On with the great work, comrades! Money During War the bosses must be free at all times} to make big profits that war brings | them. | The main point he said was to get} “the men available to operate the fin- ancial agencies.” These men, of| e,.are Mr. Meyer himself, J. P.| Bernard Baruch, and the| ther Wall Street bankers who showed | how to reap millions out of the blood of the toilers who are slaughtered in} the imperialist conflict, The last war, Mr. Meyer said cost $186,000,000,000 and the United States capitalists shared in $23,000,000,000 that was spent by the United States government for the war. From this} flood of wealth the capitalists gleaned billions in profits, Naturally, they look forward hungrily to another war that will let loose another flood of} one hundred and eighty six billion | dollars in gold, and will kill off at least ten millions of the world’s un-| employed. For war the capitalists readily find | billions, but when the unemployed | demand unemployment insurance not a penny can be found—unless the workers force the bosses to disgorge. WELSH MINERS IN| STRIKE DEMAND Ready to Fight Pay) Cut; Leaders Betray | CARDIFF, Wales, March 17 Sharp resistance of the coal miner: in South Wales to a wage-cut of 14| cents a day, awarded recently by the of joint shown yesterday at a conference of miners’ delegates. The “joint conciliation board” was the scheme by which the British Labor Party attempted to put over a wage- cut without a strike. The union misleaders agreed to the wage-cut. At the conference. the leaders did all they could ito keep the workers from preparing for strike against the wage-cut, The discussion from the delegates, reflecting the views of the rank and file of the miners, was repidly veering towards the demand for a strike despite the misleaders. To stop this action, the conference was adjourned so the delegates could go home. However, they have to face the local miners, who are show- ing their fighting spirit against a wage-cut. FIRED FOR DARING ORGANIZE IN. ILL, (By a Worker Correspondent.) ST. LOUIS, Mo.—Two women workers were fired yesterday from the Forrest City Mfg. Co. in Collins- ville, Il., 12 miles from here. The reason for it was that they spoke to the other workers about organizing a union to fight for bet- fer conditions. One of those who Were fired had to support a family of five on $5 a week that she was making working 53 hours a week. é Her husband, who was working in the mines for 40 years, is now sick chairman a conciliation board, was The shop is a dress shop.--M.

NEGRO WOMAN DIES OF HUNGER (From the Philadelphia Unemployed Council) PHILADELPHIA, P., March 17.— The report of the eviction of Mrs. Randolph, a Negro worker, which was | prevented by the prompt actions of the South Philadelphia Unemployed Council appeared in Saturday's Daily Worker. | Well, we succeceded in preventing | the eviction by putting up a deter- | mined struggle, but the bosses have | scored another victory over the work- ing class. Mrs. Randolph is dead! The doc- tors say she died of shock. They fail to report what we know. Mrs. Ran- dolph also died from starvation! Mrs, Randolph was an energetic member of our Council who never missed a | meeting, and who was most active in rallying the workers in her neighbor- hood to fight evictions, and for un- employment insurance, When her body became too weak- ened through undernourishment to enable her to get out of her bed her spirit was continually with us. She always told us how sorry she was that she couldn't be with us in the strug- gle. Mrs. Randolph's hold on life was | weakened by the continuous appear- ance of the constable threatening to throw her belongings on the street. Like all the tools of the bosses, and like the bosses themselves, this skunk took advantage of the fact that she was a Negress, and buldozed and ter- rorized her even after she was hope- lessly bedridden. We, the members of the Unem- ployed Council of South Philadelphia pledge to avenge the death of Mrs, Randolph, by carrying on the fight that she was forced by death to stop. We call upon all workers of South Philadelphia Negro and white to join hands in the fight against evictions, against high rents, for immediate un- employment relief by the city gov- ernment! Join the Unemployed’ Council of 1208 Tasker Street and fight with us for unemployment insurance! The council meets every ‘Tuesday and Thursday at 2p. m, ba wohl a).
