He has on threatened the workers with ar- t for talking to the defense attor- y in the courtroom at Washing- 1. After the Canonsburg riot cases ve tried, Seaman came out with } announcement that he was going jclose the strikers’ relief stations less they stopped picketing. This oused a storm of indignation. The ners refused to be terrorized. Then began the circularization of > petition for a court order saying ey were a public nuisance. Sea-| in’s other card is “unsanitary con- jions.” The miners say they are ‘rfectly willing to leave the bar- oks if decent houses are provided, d will not leave until then. The barracks at Cedar Grove are e the other barracks built to house | ‘iking miners in various parts of 2 coal fields. They are not beauti- » nor even comfortable, but the iitary arrangements of the bar- oks are as good as those of the ‘rage company “patch” where the pis live while digging coal for bosses. [The rooms are small, being an erage of 10 feet square, and they > overcrowded. There is hardly pm for more than beds and a ive, and when rainy weather drives » family indoors they are seriously ywded. They are built of 1 inch ards, with tar paper roofs, a door front and a window in back. Out- uses are built well away from the ‘racks proper, and sanitary condi- ms are as good as could be ex- sted without running water. Yhis crowdedness of the barracks the most serious difficulty. At dar Grove the single men have andoned the barracks to make yre rooms for families. The single n live in the open. Sheriff Seaman’s efforts to sup- sss the barracks is a definite ef- ‘t to end all strike activity and put tompiete stop to any effort of coal ners to wring better conditions mm the bosses. The National Min- s’ Union intends to put up a stren- uous fight to prevent closing the barracks. .If the barracks are con- demned tent colonies will also be condemned. “Then it will be a choice between living in the open, with a rain-laden sky for a roof and the roadside for quarters, or else going back to live in the patch and to work in the mines —or else be driven out of the coal fields, as Sheriff Seaman and the operators no doubt would like to do with all militant miners. ‘The miners are putting up a stiff fight against this new move, and ask the support of their fellow workers. While they haye resisted all at- tempts to close down their relief kitchen—they need relief! While they are fighting to keep what living quarters they have—many are still living at the roadside, waiting for tents! Babies are dangerously sick— | they need milk! Most of all—every | striking miner, his wife and his chil- dren need bread—enough bread to keep life in their bodies. The Penn.- Ohie-W. Va.-Ky.

FIVE AND TENS MAKE MILLIONS That five and ten cent stores make huge profits. Woolworth, for ex- ample, raked in over $34,000,000 in 1930 (a bad year). We can see how they do this. The wages of one- third of the five and dime stores is less than $10 per week. Half of the women employed there earn less than $15. The hours are from 48 to 54 and the discipline is equal to any prison’s. PRICE OF FOOD RISES The U. S. Department of Labor reports that during the month of duly 15-August 15, the price of eggs rose by 12 per cent, that of butter 9 per cent. Also sugar, pork chops and other foods went up in retail price. The farmer that produces the stuff is starved and the worker who wants to buy can’t.

Following Hoover be- fore the microphones, he shouted: “In 1917, the Legion led the way in service (to the capitalists), and in 1931 the Legion will lead the way again” (in trying to save capi- talism against the hungry masses). He tried to assure the bosses that they had nothing to fear from the war veterans, even though they and their families are condemned by the bosses to starvation by denial of un- employment relief and opposition to the demand for immediate cash pay- ment of the Graveyard Bonus. The convention was also addressed by former Secretary of War Baker, who said that “the worst catastrophe (to the capitalists) was the loss of faith in the efficacy of (capitalist) institutions for orderly government.” Baker also referred indirectly to the boss preparations for another war, especially against the Soviet Union. He declared “there is grave anxiety that during the next few years another war from some unex- pected quarter will land upon them to further devastate their land.” His speech, as those of the others, was directed towards mobilizing the Legion for this war against the So- viet Union and for the war against the starving and discontented masses at home. .S.

The growing tenseness of the sit- uation in the province of Chientao is reported by the correspondent of the New York Times as follows: Anti-Japanese demonstrations, riots and incendiarism are sizzling up in several places, and telegraph wires are reported cut. A regiment of Chinese troops has marched toward the area, but whether their Presence will pour oil or water on the smoldering flames remains to » be seen. The Moscow Pravda and Izvestia characterized the Japanese occupa- tion of Manchuria as an act of or- ganized imperialist aggression and on that was made at a time when conflicting imperialist powers had their hands full with internal dif- ficulties. The value of the Kellogg pact and the Washington 1922 pact which Japan is a signatory is shown in its true light, not as peace in- struments, but contrawise, as instru- ments that hide imperialist war pre- parations. “The events in Manchuria may bring forward in full force the problem of conflict of the imper- jalis tcountries on the Chinese question” Pravda writes, ‘The intense interest that American imperialism now manifests in the Manchurian affair flow not only out of its need for more markets, but the ever-present thought of war against the Soviet Union with the conquest of new positions in Man- churia. a base for.war against the Soviet Union in the Far East sector the affair, Japanese troops con- to advance and occupy new) could be immediately established. _ Ohio Steel Wages Are Cut 25 P.C. (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) cut in industries generally, doubt- less with the railroads following shortly in the same track. The ‘Trade Union Unity League will do its utmost to mobilize the workers against these cuts. To fight them will be in the very center of the business of the National Committee of the T.U.U.L. to be held in Pitts- burgh, Oct. 3 and 4. The cut in wages in the steel industry marks the beginning of 2 whole wave of strikes. The workers will fight against the reduction of their stan- dard of living. The coming months will witness some of the biggest strikes and movements of the un- employed that this country has ever seen. These will be under the gen- eral leadership of the revolutionary unions.” ‘The wage cut is made by the Fi- nance Committee to take $39,000,000 out of the meagre pay of the steel workers, many of whom are on part time, and hand it over to the para- site stockholders. All capitalist newspapers have de- clared that a cut by the United States Steel Corporation will immediately be followed by a slash in the railroad industry, mining, all other metal—in fact, for all basic industries in the country The present open cut is not the first reduction in wages. Through speed up, lengthening cf hours, as well as through the stagger system, the wages of the workers in the United States Steel Corporation had heretofore been cut from 10 to 25 per cent. At the last meeting of the Board of Directors of the United States Steel Corporation, James Farrell, president of the company, announced there would be no wage cut. William Green and Mathew Woll, officials of the American Federation of Labor, hav repeatedly praised the bankers who run the United States Steel Cor- poration for not cutting wages, and have informed the workers that this corporation would not cut wages. The purpose of this was to keep back or- ganization and help the United States Steel Corporation, a Morgan concern, put over its wage cut. The Metal Workers Industrial League has been carrying on a wide- spread organization drive in the steel industry. Every steel worker must organize now to strike against this wage cut! Organize shop committees! Get in touch with the Metal Workers Industrial League. There is no time to lose. This is not the final wage cut. If this goes over withoht any resistance the steel bosses will keep it up, rriving wages down to the star- vation level. Ca ee PITTSBURGH, Pa. Sept. 21— Wheéling and Weirton Steel Com- panies have n otwaited for the U. S. Steel announcement of a general wage-cut to cut wages in their Ohio Valley mills. Weirton Steel has cut wages in the hot mill up to 25 per cent within the last ten days and in the cold rolls as high as 33 per cent. Wheeling Steel has slashed in the hot mill at the Yorkville works and in the bloomirfg mill and bar mill at the LaBelle works in Steubenville, where they have also cut the size of the crews in both blooming and bar mills, forcing the men to double up on some jobs. The Metal Workers’ Industrial League is rushing the mobilization for the fight against the cuts, most of the activities at the present time centering around the mass confer- ence which will be held in Pitts- burgh Sept. 27. The Youngstown Section of the M. W. I. L. held a preparations con- ference in Youngstown Saturday, with 32 delegates present from the most important mills of Youngstown, Struthers, Warren and Campbell, en- dorsing the Pittsburgh Conference and also working out draft demands for some of the above mills, to be presented for discussion at the Pitts- burgh Conference. Acting National Secretary Meldon made the main re- port, with Sambles of Youngstown reporting on the local situation, The conference pledged a large delega- tion to the mass conference in Pitts- burgh. Meanwhiel reports are being re- ceived daily gt the national office in Pittsburgh of delegates elected by mill groups in various parts of the concentration area, on the basis of which a minimum of several hundred delegates are expected to assemble in Pittsburgh next Sunday. Impor- tant among these reports is the word that from Mansfield, Ohio, scene of the strike of 1,500 Empire Steel work- ers against a 10 per cent cut last spring, a delegation will be present at the conference. ‘The miners and metal workers held a joint mass meeting at Blaine Hill, just across the river from Clair- ton, yesterday, with Kemeonovich speaking for the N.M.U. and Joe Dallet speaking on the steel cam- paign for the Metal Workers’ In- dustrial League. Organizational re- sults were secured for both ‘unions. Some miners’ union locals are ap- pointing committees to do special or- ganizational work among the steel workers in their tows this week. MORTGAGES—THE CURSE THE FARMERS oF That bankers run the country’s industries is an established fact.

Phila, Boarders Oppose Cut. PHILADELPHIA, Pa.—The Board- ers’ Local, Branch 29 of Philadel- phia AF.F.FH.W., voted against the new wage-cut agreement, only one member being in favor of accepting the convention agreement. President Rieve, who came to speak in favor of acceptance of the Wwage-cut was only pérmitted fifteen minutes. When he objected, the workers flatly told him he need not waste his breath at all, as they were opposed to the wage-cut. Speaking the 15 minutes Rieve was booed and left the hall protected by two “friends.” The significance of this action in the home town of the A. F. F. H. W. officials may be seen from the fact | that the McKeown controlled knit- ters local voted 760 to 451 to accept the wage-cuts. Of a total member- | ship of some 6,000 hosiery workers only 1,211 showed up for the vote, the other members having lost confi- dence in their misleaders. Must Develop Strike. A national movement to strike against the proposed wage-cut and the wage-cut agreement is growing throughout the country. Many lo- cals are returning their charters to the national office of the A. F. F. F. H. W. The National Textile Workers’ Union points out to the hosiery workers the need for a united front movement against wage-cuts under the leadership of representa- tive rank and file action commit- tees in the shops, and that it must be developed on a national scope and not limited to local secession movements alone. The National Textile Workers’ Union, at its ses- sion in Boston last week, adopted a resolution pledging united front sup- port to the hosiery worke?s striking against wage-cuts and the entire sell-out agreement. LABOR PARTY AIDS BRITISH WAGE CUTS (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) extent of the pressure against the pound by foreign capitalists has not, however, been felt yet, according to Wall Street bankers. Due to the clos- ing of the London Stock Exchange the effect of the sale of British se- curities under the new situation has not yet been felt completely. The bankers have pointed out that the full effect of the fall of the pound will come into view when the Lon- don Stock Erchange opens and Brit- ish securities are forced to take the blows directed against them by the capitalists of the rest of the world, particularly of the United States and France. The feeling throughout the capitalist banking circles is that the pound is far from being stabilized at its present levels and that a further sharp slump can be expected in the near future. é Not only do the bankers expect that the pound will slump further but they expect that it will take “a pro- longed period, covering several years” for the pound to reach de facto sta- bilization, that is, stabilization at any definite price. ‘This means that in the course of this period no matter how Iong it lasts the capitalist sys- tem throughout the world will be af- fected seriously by the instability in the pound. Despite the fact that the dollar will take the place of the pound to an important degree in the financing of foreign trade the pound will continue to be of great import- ance and its instability will affect the entire capitalist world. All of the important stock ex- changes in Europe and throughout the world with the exception of New York and Paris will be forced to re- main closed as long as the London Stock Exchange is closed. These. ex- ceptional two exchanges will be forced to follow if the period is a prolonged one. N. ¥. Stock Market Stops Slump Temporarily While the closing of the London Stock Exchange prevented the full effect of the drop in the pound from becoming felt, the prohibition of ‘short selling’ on the New York Stock Exchange prevented the U. S. stock markets from feeling the full effects of the British crisis. The se- riousness of the situation as felt by the Wall Street bankers can be seen from the fact that the prohibition of “short selling” was the first ever re- corded in the New York Stock Ex- change. Furthermore, according to the New York World Telegram, “New York financiers supported the stock market with every meth- od at their disposal today and pre- vented the break in prices which some observers had expected to re- sult from the crisis in London.” The drop of a point in United States Treasury bonds, which had been expected to be exceptionally strong in the British crisis, together with a rise of up to a point in United Kingdom bonds “gave support to rumors that an exceptionally strong banking group was selling United States Treasury bonds to buy British bonds and thus support tNe market and re- store confidence in England.” The capitalist class throughout the world is trying to cover up the se- riousness of the crisis. In Great Brit- ain the same lying propaganda is be- ing used as during the worst days of the imperialist war. The New York Post describes this as follows: “Newspapers today show a singu- lar cheerfulness, met with only during the war. Judging from the press, there is no disaster, there is simply some trouble which, happily, will soon be over.” . Every attempt is being made to broadcast the most cheerful lies while not a word is being said about the increasing misery that is in store for the British working class. “Every nuance of official propa- ganda is being used to encourage the natural British trait of steadi- ness in a crisis, The public is in- formed that its money is safest in banks. The official dogma has it that the pound is still worth 20 shillings in England and conse- suently that it is better off in a bank than in a stocking. in prices that is certain to follow the heavy fall of sterling abroad. Consequently, there has been no frantic withdrawal of savings today nor any heavy purchase of sup- plies.” In this hiding of the brutal attack on the living standards that is in store for the workers, the “socialists” in the government and especially in the “Opposition” are at one with the conitalist press. The socialists are also consciously trying to mislead the workers as to the significance of the crisis for the workers. In Paris optimistic statements were issued by important bankers about the security of the franc and in Rome those papers that did comment on the crash of the pound did it in such @ way as to avoid the spreading of thefinancial crisis to Italy, where all the prerequisites in the general eco- nomic situation already exist for it. Slump In Other Countries. The financial crisis in Great Brit- ain has already been followed by sig- nificant events in other countries throughout the world. The Canadian dollar was already quoted at a dis- count of 6 per cent from the U. S. dollar on Monday. The Bank of Swe- den raised its discount rate from 4 to 5 per cent. Those few South Amer- ican countries who are still trying to make payments in gold on their for- eign. debt now feel that it is neces- sary for them to cease such payments and go off of the gold standard like- wise. This means that the entire fi- nancial relations of the United States will. be sharply affected by the drop in the payment on the foreign loans in South America. In Uruguay, on Monday, the gov- ernment stated that any further pay- ments of the country on the gold standard would only be “useless sac~ rifices” in view of the fact that Great Britain, one of the world’s largesv creditors, had gone off of the gold standard. Chile's banking reserve has been based on the pound and its re- serves maintained in London. It is reported that these reserves may be transferred to New York, which would be a major victory of the United States in the struggle against British capitalism at the present time. U. S. Faces Sharpened Crisis The immediate perspective is not only for further difficulties for the weaker countries but for the United States. This is realized in London where the effects of the British crisis on the United States has been point- ed out. This is put forth sharply in a New York Evening Post dispatch from London, “Most people in the financial dis- trict, however, regard even a tem- Missouri-Pacific R. R. Closes Locomotive and Car Shops in Missouri (By a Worker Correspondent.) KANSAS CITY, Mo.—Just a few words from the Centropolis Unem- ployed Council, ‘The Missouri-Pacific Railroad here has shut down the car shops and the locomotive shop. And for those still working the bosses have @ sys- tem of wage-cutting. There are la- borers doing helpers’ work and help- ers doing mechanics’ work.

Join the Trade Union Unity League Main St., Kansas City, Mo. porary abandonment of the gold standard as a most serious matter. “An almost equally serious view of the general position of America is also taken for quite different reasons and many failures are ex- pected.” The immediate effect of the British crisis is a tremendous sharpening of the imperialist struggle for markets, the intensified attack on the working class in order to produce cheaper and the growth of the antagonisms lead- ing to imperialist war. The collapse of the pound will give the British capitalist class a tremendous advan- tage in the struggle for the world markets with the American capitalist class which must continue to sell on gold standard prices. ‘The German bankers have already pointed out the sharpened antagon- isms on the world markets. They realize, moreover, that the British market will be contracted to an im- portant degree as the result of the suspension of the gold standard. The solution of the German capitalist class thus far in the attempt to sta- bilize the German capitalist econ- omy has been to emphasize the ne- cessity for foreign markets because of the absence of a sufficient inter- nal market. Now they revert to the inner market for the disposal of the surplus products which of course, due to the mass misery of the German workers and farmers, is incapable of further expansion. U. S. Prepares Struggle. The Commercial attache of the United States in London cabled the Department of Commerce pointing out that the establishment of the pound at a lower level as now seems likely, “is likely to ald materially in the trading position of that country, at least for a certain period of time.” The competition of the United States and British capitalists is not confined to the field of foreign mar- kets but the struggle is also as to whether New York or London should be the banking center of the world. The U. S. capitalist press is already proclaiming the downfall of sterling and London and the rise of the dol- lar and New York as the unques- tioned leaders of finance capital. While this struggle goes on the leading capitalists are conscious of the fact that the collapse of the Brit- ish pound is of the greatest import- ance not only for Great Britain but for the entire capitalist world. The Temps, the semi-official organ of the French government points out that, “The gravest fault which could be committed at this juncture, not only in England but elsewhere, would be to give way to pessimism and the belief that British credit is irremediably compromised. It is not only the safety of England but the safety of the whole world which is involved.” The World-Telegram after pro- SPREAD THIS NOW PAMPHLET UNEMPLOYMENT RELIEF and SOCIAL INSURANCE 2 Cents THE COMMUNIST PROGRAM AGAINST THE CAPITALIST PROGRAM OF STARVATION Just the pamphlet that is neede for ma fall and wint PD mt activities thi in your neighborhood, at © house: distribution in unem- Read it and apri it hop, unemployment branch, organization, loyment agencies, on the bread lines and in the lodging SEND IN YOUR ORDERS NOW!

The Council is going to take up a collection for the Daily | Worker and now the people there but he says that they need a new program to | boost the paper. Another ‘ade writes in from Fort Myers, Florida, far a bundle of thirty copies. They elected a com- rade to sell papers and he sold 50 on Saturday, Sept. 6. He is ham- pered by being half-starved most of the time and by sleeping in empty houses, which is not a very good strength builder.

Sometimes four salesmen go out and at others only one. Only two are selling regularly and their | One of these | sales fluctuate greatly. men is middle-aged and frequently ill. In spite of the extent of unem- Ployment and the obvious need of unemployed workers for money, he claiming the fact that in the bitter struggle between British capitalism and American capitalism “the post- tion as the world’s leading merchant and banker has passed for better or for worse to the United States, “warns that if the struggle is inten- sified at this present time without regard to the consequences then the consequences then the United States and France will be drawn inevitably into the financial crisis with Great | Britain. “Of course, the New York and Paris bankers could now injure Great Britain, but it is much more probable that they will help her, since they know so well that con- tinued British financial would injure them and their coun- tries.” Monday, when the seriousness of the situation was becoming worse the French government suggested to Snowden an additional credit totaling about $156,000,000. This was tempo- rarily rejected by Snowden, not be- cause Great Britain does not need the additional credits but because such small amounts would be swal- lowed up immediately, as the previous $650,000,000 had vanished in little over a month. Snowelen asked for these large credits on Friday of last week but at that time both the Fed- eral Reserve Bank and the Bank of France “gave a friendly reply but they offered no prospect of further credits.” The decision of the Federal Reserve Bank was determined prob- ably to a large extent by the fact that the 120 banks in the United States have had some little difficulty in raising the last credit to the Bank of England. chaos | “DAILY” BOOSTS ITSELF can’t jnduce them to sell the Daily | Worker as the job is very tough. Even though the Thursday issue carries news for their special dis- trict, it is even hard to sell the | Daily on this day. The Daily Worker agent from Stockton, California, says that too much lamenting is done over the fact that the workers will not come to us and buy the paper. The old saying “If the mountain will not come to Mohammed then Moham- med must go to the mountain” not only applies here, but we should go to the workers FIRST and not wait for them to come to us. MAKE THE MOUNTAIN COME TO MOHAMMED. Again we say that if Readers’ Clubs are built up around the Daily Worker, with discussion of various news items, more and more workers will become interested in spreading the Daily. When these clubs begin to function, the Daily almost sells itself; in other words, the mountain does come to Ma- hommed, the workers will run after the agents and more and more will help sell the Daily. Such @ program applied in Decatur among the members of the Un- employed Council is the program that we suggest to boost the paper. The members can write in to the Daily Worker about the demands they put before the City Council. | When these are published in the paper, and the people see that the Daily reflects their needs and fights for their demands, it then becomes their mass organizer which they cannot do without. The same thing applies to Fort Myers. We realize what a tough time the Red Builder there has. We also suggest that he write in more letters about the situation in that city and their problems. If such a discussion club as the Daily Worker Club was formed, the demand for Dailies would increase automatically. He might start by going from house to house in working-class districts, showing the people how the Daily reflects their problems and is willing and ready to fight for them. Each of the workers approached will tell other workers, who will then watch |for the Red Builder and his sales | will become much more easy. He will then find that something a little better than starvation waits for him. Let the Kids Show the Way. Reading, how about getting « bunch of kids to work. Approached | right, they are swell fighters and have plenty of pep. After they get started and bring things their way, older workers will flock for the job. And then start a Daily Worker Club there, and you will have no more worries. The workers will then eagerly wait for the Thursday edition which carries more news especially pertinent to their district. M. 8. J. writes in from New Or- leans. Louisiana tells us that they are bailding a Daily Worker Club there. He got six people together and another comrade got nine. They joined forces and explained to these workers the need of such a@ club in New Orleans. Ask us for a bulletin on how to start a club. This is how the ball can be started rolling. When it starts to roll, like the proverbial snowbell, it would grow larger and larger, and who knows where it will end or when? | | a tenement naeennen etn The DAILY WORKER leads all fights of the Working Class SUPPORT THE PAPER OF YOUR CLASS Subscribe to the DAILY WORKER Regular Subscription, One Year, $6—in N.
