As a contrast to this program for the workers, just look at Hoover's plan to help the poor bankers. $500,000,000 pool is created to save these damn parasites while us work- ers get wage cuts. Wake up, workers! Fight this rot- ten system. Organize and fight! That's the only way we can defeat the bosses plan to pauperize us.

The latest admission that 48 per cent of those who were sup- posed to receive relief from the Tam- many-Prosser Committe are still jobless and starving is an admission that even the emergency unemployed committee was forced into making public its new campaign to raise an- oth t twelve million dollars. The task of all Communist Party agita- tors in the election campaign is to definitely convince the workers on the basis of actual facts, that this twelve million dollar relief fund will go into the pockets of the racketeers rotti are and gangsters, the same as the eight | million previously raised. The Elec- tion Campaign must be used as a Mobilization of the working class to | fight for immediate relief in New York for the starving workers and their families and to organize the Na- | tional Hunger March to Washington on December 7th to carry the strug- gle right into the halls of the Wall Street imperialists.

The food was con-| tributed by poor farmers who want to express their solidarity with the | miners and their families who are) | so heroically fighting against starva- | tion.
