DAILY WORKER, NEW YOR! K, WEDNESDAY, “ Page Three AMERICAN WORKERSIN LENINGRAD WRITE OF LIFE IN RED FACTORY Shops controlled by Workers’ Committees; Workers Elect Own Foremen Milk Output Increases; Hach Worker Re- , eeives One Quart Per Day Dear Comrades: We are writing this letter working in a factory which employs 1,500 workers. Leningrad, USSR. from Leningrad where we are We still need 1,000 more workers, but it is very hard to get workers here as everyone has a job and there is no unemployment—quite a different situation than you have in the United States. Workers Elect Foremen The conditions under which we work are diametrically opposite to those in the capitalist countries. Here the workers elect @ shop committee and the¢———————_ committee appoints & Wofker as @ foreman. He is a different fore- man than the. foreman one meets in the U.S.A. He functions for a different purpose—that is, he is more of a bookkeeper. He checks up on what is made, how much material is brought in to be worked up and is not here to drive the workers as in capitalist factories. When the workers do not want a certain fore- man they inform the shop committee and they get a new foreman. No Food Problem We receive a quart bottle of milk every day—the kind of milk one never sees in American cities—real wholesome milk. The bread here is something; I never thought that such good bread existed. It’s. the best I éver tasted. ‘We stop here every two hours for five minutes to take a smoke. The work week is four days work and the fifth day off. The last day we had off the workers from our factory and another factory went to @ collective fatm te work. ‘There were about 2000 cf us. We went out, with ban- nérs and music, young and old alike, to give our rest day to the building up of Sosialism. With the Red Army ‘The place where we are living is not in Leningrad but 40 minutes away from it by train. It is very near a Red Army Camp. We go bathing in a lake on the camp grounds that the Red Army uses. ‘When one wants to get into the grounds he is stopped by a sentry and all he asks is proof that you are worker. If you are a worker every- thing is O.K. If not a worker just try to get in, A few days ago a group of work- ers went to the camp for a visit on their day off. We were with them. And what the soldiers did to make out visit a pleasant one! We dined with them, swam with them. Then they paraded for us. And let me say right now it is some army. We have made quite a few friends among the soldiers and from speaking with them we soon found out why the capitalists of the world hesitate to attack the Soviet Union. These sol- diers area part of the working class and they all understand what is go- ing on outside the borders of the USSR. —Two American Workers. Hinkle Steel Work New York. Daily Worker; The Hinkle Steel Construction Co. at 324 W. 56th Street is going to have enother Jayoff again in order to give the workers ancther cut in their wages. Since Bonner has become foreman the shop has become unbearable. His slave-driving tactics have the men muttering and grumbling all the time. Of course there aro a few hand- shakers and stool pigeons who say everything is all right, but the work- ers in the shop hate these men, I was a worker In this shop until last Wednesday. When Bonner told me I'd work overtime whether I liked it or not, I had spirit enough to quit right then just to show the others that the boss could not terrorize me like he did the rest. Editoral Note—The action of the er Makes Mistake worker reminds us of the story of the boy who tried to sneak into the circus and was hit on the head with a club by one of the circus owner’s thugs and who thereupon, in order to make the circus owner mad, bought a ticket to the circus and refused to go to see the show. Just like the boy who hurt only himself and made nobody mad, so the worker in the Hinkle shop played directly into the hands of the boss and did not better his situation or that of the workers one iota. What this ‘worker could have done is to have’ stayed in the shop and or- ganized a committee representing all the workers to demand that Bonner be driven from the shop and that the slave-driving tactics be discontinued. Don’t run away from the shops—stay in the shops and organize for struggle. School Children Starving in Kansas City (By a Worker Correspondent) SAIN'SAS CITY, Mo.—The opening ef {he schol toerm should mean the opentt.g of the door to greater knowl- edge for the children. But to the poor children of Kansas City, Kan., ™ mein only misery and humiliation. Many children are forced to go to »chool without any breakfast and as vhere is no easy for lunch the chil- dren must go the whole day without food. Anyone knows that it is im- ible for a child’s mind to func- nm when it is starving. Then an extra burden has been placed on the parents of buying school books. The school board an the board of education has refused to supply books for the childfen. A teacher at the Major Hudson School, Miss Craig, threatened to whip a ten year old-boy because his father who was out of work, was unable to buy books for his son. “4 ‘The parents and the children must organize and demand free foood in the schools and books for the chil- dren of the unemployed.

Welfare Fakers, But No Funds for Jobless (By a Workrr Correspondent.) MCKEESPORT, Pa.—The following was clipped from the McKeesport “Daily News”: “Helen Glenn Tyson, of. Pitis- burgh was appointed assistant dep- uty secretary of welfare by Gover- nor Pinchot today. The new as- sistant deputy secretary, who is engaged actively in social welfare work in Pittsburgh, will receive a slary of $6,000 a year. “Isabel F. Pelly,’ Carlisle, has been appointed an assistant direc- tor in welfare at $3.000 a year.” Here are two parasites who col- lect $9,000 a year for doing absolutely ‘nothing for unemployed and the striking miners. The number of job- less workers is rapidly increasing in McKeesport and all that the local and state governments are doing is what they have always done—ap- point a few high paid professional parasites to sit on swivel chairs and scoff at the hungry workers. Actual relief is unknown in Mc- Keesport. Hunger and misery are Agricultural Workers (By 2 Worker Correspondent) WOODLAND, Cal.—Woodland Rice Plant where I work has been run- ning up to 20 hours per day, handl- \ng the crop-assorting, packing, etc. Our weges are lowered 15 cents (30 cents we got now) per hour and straight time for overtime, / This county has about 11,000 acres planted in rice, employing about 400 men altogether. Wages have been cut to 33 1-2 per cent. This work is short termed, Harvest started Sep- tember 1 and will last probably Get Heavy Wage Cuts through October. Also the winter lettuce harvest. in Yolo County is about to start. About 2,000 acres of lettuce fields here will give employment for a couple of months. The farmer I worked for last year told me to come when the seaso started, but “you know we pay only 30c per hour this year,” he added. This is cut of 33 1-3 over last year. So those are the conditions for us field workers, Let's organize and fight them. U. S. Refunds Millions To Millionaires, Tells Workers To Starve The United States is facing a deficit of almost @ billion dollars this year and is telling the workers that it is therefore unable to appropriate money for unemployment relief, Yet at the same time it has been giving * hundreds of millions of dollars in tax refunds to millionaires and mil- oe ~ lionaire corporations this year. Fol- lowing are just a few of the refunds for this year alone.

I will close FRANCE, GERMANY JOIN FOR ACTION AGAINST THE USSR Social- Fascists Are Drawn Into Action Commission ‘The two days of discussion of Laval and Briand with Chancellor Bruen- ing of Germany had as its main pur+ pos2 the strengthening of the eco- nomic and political position of the French capitalists against Great Britain, the United States and par- ticularly for the attack against the Soviet Union. The immediate result of the conferences will be the estab- lishment of a “mixed Franco-German commission” for the political and economic struggle. The New York Times reports that, “The pooling of economic activi- ties envisaged by German and -France shall not, it was announced in a joint communique,be directed against the economic interest of any other State.” ‘This means to both Great Britain and the United States that France is attempting to engage the German capitalist class for the struggle against its imperialist rivals. The German capitalist class has been promised by the French credits for the export of their products to East- ern Europe. * 28 “One of the first-and most impor- tant tasks of the commission will be to map out a large scheme for en- tering jointly the Eastern European export markets, with France fig- uring as the financier and Ger- many as the manufacturer. The Eastern European markets are un- derstood to mean Russia in the first, place, but also the Balkan States, Hungary and Poland. ‘The astern European market | which “means Russia in the first place” is important to the German capitalist class because, according to |the New York Times, “the only ex- |tensive démand for industrial com- modities comes from the East”, that is from the Soviet Union, where the successful building of Socialism de- mands the use of ever greater mass- es of industrial equipment. The cap- italist class of Germany realizes that in the capitalist world crisis the only great market for goods is the Soviet While the French capitalist class is attempting an aligment with Ger- man capitalists in its struggle with British and United States imperial- ism it is also interested, not in sup- plying the market in the Soviet Union with more products, but chief- ly in smashing the Soviet power. For this purpose it has already been stat- ed in Germany that there should be a similar relationship established be- tween Germany and Poland, the French armament depot on the So- viet frontier. In addition to this the discussion included the “delicate” questions of “reparations and the forthcoming visit of M. Laval to Washington.” ‘These questions were discussed for a united front against the United States in the forthcoming visit of Laval to Hoover next month, par- ticularly on the question of repara- tions. In the conference between France and Germany “workers’ representa- tives” were taken into account and they will serve on the joint economic commission between France and Ger- many, These ‘workers’ representa- tives” will be the reactionary “so- cialist” trade union leaders who will be included to continue their at- tempts to mislead the workers. In every one of its actions in the pres- ent crisis the capitalist class realizes the importance of the traitor role of the social-fascists and includes them in all of its plans for an attack on the working class and for the attack on the Soviet Union.

The occasion was the Mooney-Harlan meeting and banquet arranged by the International Labor Defense to greet Frank Spector, just released from San Quentin, and who was one of the eight Imperial Valley workers con- demned to serve 42 years, The mass protests of workers led by the ILD forced the California bosses to re- duce the sentenges to 14 years maxi- mum and to release Frank Spector. A delegation representing workers from Indianapolic, Bicknell, Terre Haute and other towns was elected to call upon Gov. Lislie of Indiana and demand the immediate and un- conditional release of Theodore Lues- se, sentenced here to two years for leading struggles of the unemployed. ‘When Frank Spector arrived in the hall he was greeted with'a storm of applause, Membership Grows ‘Telegrams demanding the imme- diate release of the nine Scottsboro Negro boys, the Harlan miners, Moo- ney and Billings and the seven Im- SPEED DEFENSE DRIVE WHILE MORE MINERS FACE PRISON |\British Government to Rob Indian Funds . to Save Own Skin is (Cable by Inprecorr) | BERLIN, Sept. 23.—Yesterday an perial Valley workers, and letters Of | attempt was made at the Indian personal greetings to the class fight- |regisiative Assembly to discuss the ers were adopted with the stormiest | situation arising because of the Bri- approval.

TARIFF 25 PER CENT (CUNTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) in London there is short selling of sterling.” This inflation of the currency means as the capitalist class of the entire world realizes and is preparing for, the most -intense. struggle for foreign ‘markets that the capitalist | world has yet seen, finally to be fol- | lowed bythe -ottbreak of armed | struggle. The struggle for foreign markets is directly connected with the raising of | the-tariff walls ofall the. capitalist countries to prevent foreign capital- | ists from entering the domestic mar- | kets and to increase their profits in | | the home market to make losses on the world markets. The | | going to become more and more in- | tense as the crisis deepens. | “Another easy descent into trou- | ble is seen in the British agitation for a tariff. The rate of duty is placed at a low figure, 10 per cent ad valorem. But every one knows that if this does not prove suffi- cient to protect favored industries they will clamor for a higher duty.” ‘The capitalist class of the United States has already taken the first steps in the tariff war. The Tariff Commission and treasury department “experts” are already “studying” the effects of the suspension of the gold standard on the exports of the United States. The “investigation” is being made with the sole purpose of pre-| paring the incréase of the entire) tariff schedule of the nited States. This is openly. admitted in a New York Times dispatch from Washing- ton which states that: “The purpose of the study is to determine whether increasing tariff rates would be advisable to pre- vent flooding of the American markets with foreign-made goods produced at lower production costs because of the depreciated cur- rency.” The capitalist class is preparing to raise the tariff rates “from 20 to 25 per cent to overcome the lower pro- ductian costs in countries now on the double currency standard.” Under the present tariff increases in the tariff law can only be le after investigation of each individual item. The Hoover government is preparing not increases on individual items but a general tariff increase. They are now investigating the means by which this can be done most easily. ‘The capitalist class is trying to put over this terrific increase in the tar- iff rates in order to increase its profits in the present crisis at- the expense of the working class, This tariff increase will mean increases in all of the commodities the workers must buy. It means that in addition to the wholesale wage slashes started by the steel and other trusts the capitalist class is planning a. further attack on the living standards of the workers by increasing the price of all the commodities which make up the workers’ living standard.
