nest or ee - murder have been attacked by the DATLY WORKER, NEW YORK, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 12, 1931 tage J F've ——- | Pioneers Lead Protest. of 1000 for Children’s Relief Militancy of Workers’ _ tack on Demonstration by Police CHICAGO, IIl., Sept., 6—On Sat- urday September 5th, at 1:30 p.m. 300 children, Negro and white, as- sembled at the headquarters of the South Side branch of the Unemployed Council ot 3835 S. State, Chicago, in answer to the call of the Young Pioneers of America. They had come together to participate in a hunger march to the swell home of Alder- man Anderson at 3800 Calumet Ave., and to protest against the starvation) and misery that exist among the un- employed as well as employed, work- ers’ families in the South Side .of Chicago. After the children. .had } learned a number of pioneer -songs and cheers they all lined up with. slogans telling what is was all about and with a couple of hundred parents: and members of the Unemployed-| Council following in the rear; -the+} children set out for the Alderman, When the children got there, the Police were already waiting. Though there were lois of them there, -a couple of squad cars, etc., they-made no effort to smash the parade at-the outset because the spirit and solidar~ ity of the children and adults was so great and such a huge crowd =had gathered. The speakers box was put” up and a young Negro worker from the Young Communist League opéned the meeting of over 1000 children and grown-ups. The first two speakers were children, one Negro arid “the other white. They both spoke-about the terrible conditions of the children and the need of unity in order to» carry on the fight against hunger and} misery. A committee of mothets and children was then elected to go in‘to the Alderman and present a series of demands which were briefly as fol- lows: Free hot lunches, clotties, school supplies for children of ‘unem- ployed and part time workers, no charge for material used in schools either in domestic science or rhanual training work, more schools, complete medical examination and attention in schools at city expense. fs The police did not allow the com: mittee to enter the house and when - | hay | sure. took th Children Prevents At-} and pesed’ ‘the Alderman. When this | pened, someone from the Alder: man's. house said the Alderman was not home, but the crowd yelled “liar” | ‘and fold the guy to come out and tell “them about it.

Then | after saying how much sympathy he had-for the misery of the children ad they could not keep on starying he, pulled out $15 and he said he hoped that would show that he was willing. to help. He said he was speak- ing for Anderson because Anderson waso‘away from the city.” The crowd booed him down when | he was through and received the re- marks of the following speaker re- presenting the Communist Party with tremendous enthusiasm. The speak- erss; that concluded the meeting pointed out that the workers and the children under the lead of the Com- Thunist Party and the Young Pioneers of ‘America would bring much more -oub-of the bosses than the $15, The demonstration ended with the work- ers: dnd children marching back in ah organized way, singing and cheer- 4g and all the while consciously ac- ‘ted in a united mass on guard against any attempts of the police to nab any individuals. This was only the first of many | children’s hunger marches to be con- ‘uicted by the Young Pioneers of Athérica not only in the South Side | but in every part of the city and dis- trict of Chicago against starvation ‘conditions. Close to 200 children were gotten to join the pioneers and hun- dreds were mobilized to participate the chairman of the committee re- Ported back, the workers all razzed Fake “Cordial Relations” Cry gro shore croppers and a woman were. brutally lashed by a mob of white planters. One of the share croppers, | Rev. Bates, had demanded an in- vestigation into the death of ‘the |; small child of W. L. Johnson, a heigh- boring share cropper. Rev. Bates charged that the child, who was lame, was beaten to death by the plantation owner. So the plaritation owners took out Rev. Bates and his wife, and Johnson, the father of the murdered child, and beat thent with- in an inch of their lives. The land- owners then ordered their victims to get out of Lincoln County. - Lynching of militant Negro workers- 4s further used to intensify the ter- ror against the Negro masses in the bosses’ attempt to “keep them in their place’—that is, in subjection to the brutal system of landowner rob- bery and oppression. Already this year, 30 lynchings are known to have} occurred, with scores of such crimes probably covered up by the boss press. Last year, there were 44 fecorded lynchings. ‘The boss terror against the Negro masses is not confined to the South.

This boss gov- ‘ernment denies adequate relief to the. 11 million Negro and white un- employed workers and fosters and encourages discrimination against the Negro workers by the Red Cross and oither racketeering charity outfits. This government insulted and humil- ited. the Negro people by jim- crowing the Negro Gold Star moth- ers on cattle ships on their trips to yisif the graves of the sons that were taken from them in the imperialist World slaughter. This same boss government is now engaged in break- ing up the Negro regiments of the regular army, in fear of the growing revolt among the Negro masses. The Negro regiments are being trans- formed into labor battalions in order to. déprive them of arms which the imperialist oppressors fear may be used against the boss murderers. And while all this is taking place, the Negro toadies of imperialism dare -to prate about “cordial rela- tions” between the boss oppressors gnd their victims! Négro workers!

In Chicago Negro unemployed workers were shot down like dogs by police on August, 3 at the orders of Negro and white landlords.

The two convict trusty guards have been given their free- dom by Gov. Bilbo as a reward.

The “economy” section, for in- | Stance, asks for $350,000,000 to come | cut of the pockets of the workers | and the unemployed. There will be ;@ cut of $129,000,000 in unemploy- ment insurance; an increase of $50,000,000 in unemployment insur- ance payments by the employed worker, thereby lessening the bur- den of the bosses; a reduction in pay of the soldiers without any re- $47,000,000; a cut in education ex- penses for the workers and a cut in| teachers pay amounting to $51,- 000,000; road work will be cut by will be cut $6,250,000 at a time when hunger is spreading disease among the workers, How the “Socialist” proposed bud- get of the bankers will hit the work- ers is told by the New York Times correspondent as follows: “The workless man now living on an unemployment insurance bene- fit of $4.25 a week will have to subsist on $3.81 The receivers of smell wages and salaries who have never paid income tax before must pay now . so gue Taxes on beer, tobacco and such |Workers Squeezed To’ Save Profits of fy the Rich other commodities workers are increased.

This is expected to meet almost exactly the increased weight of the higher income ta and it was announced the 1 backbenchers showed their warm used by the approval, The “opposition” reply to the Snowden propcsals was a farce branding the so-called Labor op-} ynion Cor Position as one of the supporters of vhe fundamental policy of the Na- tional Government.

The N. Y. Times says: “The political situation is a bit awkward for the Labor Party be- cause it has been revealed that all the economies which the Opposi- tion now denounces were accepted, with the exception of the unem- ployment measure, by the former | Labor Ministers in the Cabinet sessions two weeks ago when an attempt was being made to save the financial situation without a change in government.” to | | Mr. Graham's speech was perfunc- | even “And the “unemployment measure” was approved of by the majority of e present of accordin; other sto’ Tim Hend at the Union Congress Bristol ays “Mr. Henderson isclosed his approval in principle of a nationai government, while objecting to the | manner in which the present gov- ernment was formed, and revealed that the late Laborite Cabinet by had agreed to a 10 per t in the dole, the | | stion 1 eak-up not eoming until later. ~ Hence ave the admi a by Hence st hat not only was a@ majority of the Labor cabinet (including Henderson) for a 10 per | cent cut i, Henderson in une favors in principle the National government— that is the development of a fascist regime!

BALTIMORE, Md., Sept. 9.—Inter- national Youth Day between 350 and 400 workers packed the sidewalks at the demonstration in spite of the tricks of the cops to disband them on the plea of “blocking the highway.” The meeting was opened with a burst of revolutionary songs by the Young Communist League who arrived on a truck carrying banners announcing the meeting. A very good percentage of the workers were young workers, many of whom bought Young Workers or who filled out applications to join the Young Communist League at the conclusion of the meeting. The speakers were Dorsey, a Negro com- rade, who was well received in spite of the fact that this section is ex~- clusively a “white” section; Comrade Joan Hardy also of ths YCL who ex- posed the efforts of the boss class to win away the working youth for war and who called on them to organ- ize into the Young Communist League—and refuse to shoot down other workers, but to join with the revolutionary adult workers and kick out the bosses. Comrade’ Bradley of the Metal Workers Industrial Leagiie, was en- thusiastically greeted. because the workers know him as a steel worker of the Bethlehem steel. They list- ened attentively to his denunciation of the latest cut in t ehtin mill of Bethlehem Steel which affected mostly young workers—and applaud- ed when he told them how to organ- ize and strike against the cut which is the fourth these workers have taken in fourteen months. This meeting is being followed up with an indoor affair to be held Saturday, September 12, at the Finnish Hall, 703 Ponca St. A good program has been prepared including a boxing match, a play, and dancing. All young workers are invited. Tickets are only 15 cents. . SPECTOR AT BOSTON MEET. BOSTON, Mass., Sept. thousand workers, more than half of them young, gathered on Boston Common to demonstrate on the .7th International Youth Day at the call of the Young Communist League. One of the principal speakers at the demonstration was Frank Spec- tor, one of the Imperial Valley pris- oners, just released from San Quen- tin prison in California. The workers | enthusiastically Spector's | cheered message from Tom Mooney, calling for a struggle of the workers to free him and all other class war pris- oners. Telegrams were sent to Gov- ernor Miller of Alabama, demanding the immediate release of the Scotts- boro boys; one to Governor Rolph of California, demanding the release of Mooney, Billings and the Imperial Valley prisoners; and a third to Governor Sampson of Kentucky de- manding the immediate dropping of the murder charges against the Har- lan miners, The workers cheered when Keith, district organizer of the Y.C.L. called for a mass fight against the bosses’ war preparations and for defense of the Soviet Union. The crowd unani- mously decided to send a cable of greetings to the Y.C.L. of the Soviet Union pledging that the Boston workers would carry on the fight to defend the Soviet Union. A number of young workers joined the Y.C.L. at the demonstration and a large number of copies of the Young Workers, Daily Worker and pamphlets were sold. one Ce 2,500 DEMONSTRATE IN NEWARK NEWARK, N. J., Sept. 9.—About 2,500 workers, mostly young, demon- strated against bosses’ wars, wage cuts, unemployment and for the de- fense of the Soviet Union on LY.D. at Independence Park, Newark. A resolution demanding unemploy- ment insurance, and for the defense of the Soviet Union was sent to the commission that is meeting in Tren- ton to “investigate the unemploy- ment situation in N. J.” Many young workers joined the Y.C.L. and 40 applications were filled out for the Young Pioneers. After the demonstration the work- ers marched through the streets, carrying banners and singing. The day ended with a banquet and dance. eo 8 ELIZABETH, N, J., Sept. 9.—Inter- national Youth Day in Elizabeth was marked by @ demonstration of more “ 8.—Two | | | | | TRYT TOSTI STIR UP than 700 young and adult workers, many of them Negroes.

The mass of workers present forced the bunch of rowdies that usually tries to break up workers’ meetings, to keep queit and either disperse or listen to the meeting. . . PEABODY, Mass., Sept. 9.—About | 150 workers came out to the call of | the Young Communist League unit here for the International Youth Day demonstration. The rowdy elements, | sons of the business men and: poli- ticians of the town, tried to inter- rupt the speakers and to break the spirit of the meeting. Despite them | mew contacts were made and several | copies of the Young Worker were | sold.

Nelson, secretary of the Soldiers County Relief Commis- sion, is trying and has gotten about | 7,200 signatures for a petition which is being forwarded to the War De- partment in Washington against the | transfer of Negro troops to Fort Omaha which are replacing the white | | money appeals to this fasicst outfit | that the money he asks for will be jused “t jing breadlines, the thousands of su! {cides of jobless workers, the growing fers to their real -significanc troops here. To these 100 per cent patriots it | | does not matter that these Negro workers, who have been bamboozled in the army, are American soldiers, the idea is to steer up race hatred in spite of the fact that they are | in the United States Army. The reg- | iment that will be moved here is the | Negro cavalry and infantry from Arizona. It can be seen how the Ne- gro World War veterans have been | taken care of by the Soldiers County | Relief Commission of Dougles County. The secretary of that commission leads the fight for discrimination | against the Negro soldiers now in the army. VOLUNTEERS WANTED To help in the Election Work every day in the afternoon.
