The body of the dead Negro workers followed the body of Com-|leader of the Young Communist rade Ronald Edwards in a fu League, who died of a tumor, had | laid in state at the Finnish Hall on 126th St., for two days. This was the |hall where a white worker some months ago displayed jim-crow ten- dencies. And the fact that thou- sands of white workers came to pay ()pen Hearing in Harlem on Hunger | their final respects to Comrade Ed- —— wards was proof of the growing bond ar ‘harity _|of unity between all races of the March to Charity Out working cl It was in this vein that all the speakers who eulogized the dead revolutionist spoke. The hall was packed as Comrade Marks, district organizer of the | Young Communist League, intro- | duced Comrade Kingston, representa- elected a mass delegation to make| tive of the N. Y. district of the Com- demands upon the Harlem branch of | unist Party. Other speakers were the charity organization society at gi | Williams, of the League of Struggle z . |for Negro Rights; Amter, represent- 125th St. for the immediate relief | of the most needy families whose sit- fit; Demand Relief NEW YORK.—At the open hearing on unemployment which took place Harlem Wednesday night, dreds of workers of the neighborhood in hun- }ing the Communist Party Central uation was made public before this | gathering. This morning working men and women set out from | the headquarters of the Harlem un- employed branch, 2 5th Ave. as the delegation. They brought with | them to the charity organization so- ciety many cases among which were Mary Livingston, 12 W. 132 St. un- employed hospital worker, whose child is sick in bed from undernour- | ishment; Mrs. Mary Davis, 215 W. 145th St., unemployed domestic work- er whose child has been going to| school without food, totally depend- | ant upon help from the teacher; as well as numerous other cases. The Charity Organization Society of Harlem, through its supervisor, | Mrs. Freeman, declared that no mat- | ter how urgent the cases her office | could do nothing for them. This of- | fice consists of four rooms and a/| Jarge clerical force, but all resources | were denied any of these workers. | Mrs. Freeman declared that the of- fice could only refer workers to the | down town office at 105 E. 22nd St. Many of the workers in the delega- tion had previously been to the down town office where they had been sent from one agency to another without | Telicf. The insistence of the delega- “tion finally won immediate action in | the worst case, that of Mrs. Livings- | ton, and carfares for the entire dele- | “€gation to and from the down town office with promise of immediate ac- tion there in the other cases The delegation succeeded in forcing the charity organization society to send an investigator to Mrs. Livings- ton’s home and provide $5 in grocer- “Jes for her and her child as well as | to secure a nurse for the sick child. | The other needy cases were furn- | ished immediate relief only by the solidarity and action of the members of the Harlem unemployed branch, who gathered food stuffs in the neighborhood, ‘among the starving families brought to light by the open hearing. Friday morning these workers together with mass delegation that has volunteered from the neighborhood will call the bluff of the Charity Organization So- ciety by going en masse to the Down ‘Town office and demanding work or immediate relief for the many other 25 white and Negro | Committee; Tony Minerich, leader of the Young Communist League and Comrade Bob Minor. Minor spoke of the growing war against the op- pressed yellow race of China and against the freed peoples of the So- viet Union. He said, “If Comrade Edwards could be with us, he would not be a pacifist. If the government would have given him a uniform and a gun, he would have taken them and marched in the army as a sol- dier of the revolution. There he would have taught the working class members of the army to turn the war between nations into a war of the oppressed against the ruling class.” Thousands must fill the gap left by Edwards, said Minor, and ended with the appeal, “More men are wanted in the ranks of the army of the revolution.” Towards the end of the funeral) procession, a couple of Tammany thugs suddenly approached the work- er who was carrying the Red Flag and wrenched it loose. This was an open provocation to start a battle but in respect to the dead comrade, | this act was met only with boos, both from those marching. and those on the sidelines. The American flag which was being carrjed was with- drawn as a protest. The beastliness of capitalism must be shown even at a funeral, SEAMEN’S WAGES - SLASHED 10 P. C.

De Santes, a membe rof the Ex- ecutive Board of the John Reed Club and of the Executive Committee of the Workers Cultural Federation, was arrested in October when the police attacked an dbroke up a well-at- tended meeting in a Brooklyn work- |ingelass district in Brooklyn, While | six of the seven who were arrested at the time were charged with dis- orderly conduct, De Santes has been lindicted on three other charges in | addition, including that of inciting to riot, which carries with it a jail term of from six months to three years.

HUNGER HEARING ~ IN BRONX, 8 P. |'Will Expose Misery and Starvation | NEW YORK. — The Unemployed | Branches of the Bronx have ar- | ranged a public hearing to expose starvation and the miserable condi- | tions of the unemployed workers.

NOVEMBER 13, 1931 COUNTER MOVE ON US.-FRANCE McDonald Gives Notice for British Im- perialism Speating at the opening of the British Parliament, the ‘‘Socialist” Ramsay MacDonald gave notice to United States and French imperial- isms of a counter offensive by British imperialism. He said: “I place the highest importance upon the visit of the French Prime Minister to the American President, I hope it will lead, firstly, to an un- derstanding between France and Germany, BUT IN THE FULL UN- DERSTANDING, IN THE FINAL UNDERSTANDING, EVERY NA- TION OF THE WORLD MUST BE A PARTY TO THE AGREEMENT. THAT IS THE POLICY OF THIS GOVERNMENT.” (Emphasis ours, Editor, Daily Worker.) The head of a so-called National Government committed to the erec- tion of a high-tariff wall, MacDonald attacked the high tariffs of other capitalist nations. He criticized the war debts and reparation payments, declaring in this connection: “I say here that, as long as the will of man has forced upon the world an unnatural economic ad- justment, the world will never suc- ceed, never prosper.” His attack on war debt payments is aimed especially at the United States to whom the British government owes huge sums, advanced during the world war, prior to and after the entry of the United States. were nearly forced to sign.

Company officials barred the doors | when they saw the crowd coming and hurriedly telephoned to the police. When the police arrived they began to swing clubs and attempted to break up the meeting and arrest the speakers. But the militancy of the crowd checked them and very reluc- tantly they were forced to retire. The workers expressed a willing- ness to fight against the high gas and electric rates and to join the Unemployed Councils. NEW YORK.—Graft is being paid by Tammany Hall out of funds which are supposed to go for unemployment. | relief, the latest testimony before the Seabury investigation committee proved. While there are 500,000 out of 800,000 (the committee's figures) unemployed who need immediate re- lief, the Tammany grafters were pay- ing out relief money to its henchmen who were riding around in cars, had money in the bank, or were employed ac the time they were receiving “re- lief.” Graft $500,000 From “Relief.” William T. Sterling, the accountant who went over the unemployment relief records, said he estimated that around $500,000 of relief funds was handed out in this form of graft. How much out of the $10,000,000 which the city of New York is sup- posed to use for unemployment. re- lief goes out in graft was not brought out. But Sterling pointed out 123 cases where “relief” was paid simply because the ones who got relief were on the Tammahy pay roll. The henchmen who got “relief” were mainly Tammany henchmen, though socialists and republicans were also allotted “relief” in the form of graft. The Tammany politicians at the hearing were furious when these facts ee Re Red Sparks Athletic Club Will hold a lecture on “Sporty fn he Soviet Union and Sports in the at 380 Grand St, 8 p.m. ay f° speak. si were brought out, but Seabury and Tammany Grafters Rob Relief ‘Fund to Pay Their Henchmen the other “investigators” merely scratched the surface and did not begin to uncover the situation of grafting that goes on with “unem- ployment relief funds.” The fact re- mains, that the vast army of unem- ployed workers in New York are not getting relief. Mr. Sterling read many pages of names of individuals who were re- ceiving “relief,” though they had good incomes, while the starving unem- Ployed were not given anything be- cause they were not tools of the Tammany politicians. Unemployment Worse. In his statements, Sterling ad- mitted that unemployment was grow- ing worse all the time, and that this winter the situation would be worse than ever before. Just before the election the Tam- many politicians “registered” 60,000 unemployed for “relief,” but the re- lief that was paid out to the list that Sterling read had not even registered. They were paid because some Tam- many politicians thought this was the best way of paying them their share of graft—out of funds that weresupposed to feed the unemployed. ‘The Seabury committee, at this time before relief is being handed out except to Tammany grafters, is already starting propaganda to “cut down” on relief to the unemployed. Concerned for German Capitalism. The “Socialist” premier of the new ‘ascist government showed great con- cern for the salvation of German cap- italism from its present precarious position. He showed his fear that the German masses will solve their pres- ent intense misery by the only way posisble, the revolutionary way. He expressed fear that an immediate en- action of a tariff in Great Britain would further aggravate the German situation. He said: “There is no pretense of inter- national altruism about this. It is taken for granted that financial chaos in Europe would be such 2 disaster for England that it would make no difference whether Britain had a tariff.” “Do not assume that the fact of the existence of this government, na~ tional as it is and national it will remain, is any proof that the prob- Jems we are fated to face have been solved.” MacDonald said. A London dispatch to the New York Times also reports him as having “reiterated the fact that his government's mandate was to in- vestigate all possible remedies to restore British prosperity, and that it was not committed to any special policy before investigation.” He asked for confidence in the conservative Chancellor of the Ex- cheques Chamberlain and Runciman: “They have undertaken this task of colossal magnitude and I beg you to give them your full confidence in the work they have begun.” MacDonald clearly showed that he had a program for doing everything Possible to maintain the vicious capi- talist system at the expense of the home and colonial masses. He said: “Within the next month we may enter the fringe of the storm area.” He called for a united front of the imperialists: “All states must make concessions, for the simple reason that if they do not the world will go from bad to worse until collapse and revolu- tion may be the only way out.” RURAL CALIFORNIA BANK BUSTS The Los Angeles Herald reports that the Coachella Valley Bank at Thernal, Cal., was taken over by the state banking superintendent because of frozen assets.

BIG FUR SHOP IS OUT ON STRIKE Ben Gold Is Held for Special Sessions NEW YORK.—The trial of Ben Gold, on a framed up charge, is held for special sessions.

Important Fur Shop, B. Axel, On Strike. One of the important shops in the fur industry, B. Axel, 333 7th Ave., came down on strike yesterday under the leadership of the Industrial Union. This shop was brought into the ranks of the company union a year and a half ago through ter- rorism nad gangsters. Since then, the wages of the workers were cut a number of times, the working con- ditions have been reduced, the work- ers received no pay for holidays, and at the present time, the conditions of shop have reached such a low level that the workers came down on strike, ‘The boss, enraged against the Needle Trades Workers’ Industrial Union, for conducting the strike, had the union organizer, Comrade A. Kolkin, arrested along with several other active fur workers, members of the furriers’ trade committee—Sam Resnick, Litvin, Gabelman, Erlich- man. They were released on bail for further hearing.

A mass meeting was called at Cadiz, Ohio, by the U. M. W. of A, This meeting was held undere neath the Harrison County Court- house where over 300 took part in the meeting. Mine Dangerous. Lee Hall, District President of the U. M. W. of A., in the Ohio district, spoke, mentioning everything under the sun but did not say one word about the working conditions of the miners in that mine, although we find that the conditions in that mine are as bad as can be found. The mine is full of gas. The roof is very bad. Every day there is someone hurt or killed. The miners called this mine the butcher shop. All min- ers are forced to load a car ranging from 5 to 6 ton for $1. This averages about 20 cents per ton. Furthermore, he told the miners that the pump- man, engineers and bosses and the rest of the necessary crew to keep the mines in good shape, for the pro- tection of “our jobs,” thus Lee Hall is worrying more about the company than he is about the miners. The miners in this mine paid their dues to the section foremen, as they were the dues collecting committees for the U. M. W. of A. |who were demanding unemployment { The National Miners’ Union issued a call to the miners to form a broad united front committee to take over the strike. The N. M. U. urges the miners to form mass picket lines, and work out the demands of the miners and continue a real mass fight against the coal operators. The N. M. U. points out only under a broad strike committee of all the miners will they be able to get a victory in their mine. TEL, B STUYVESANT 9-5557 CARL RODSK ANY KIND OF Insurance 799 BROADWAY, N. Y.C.
