The statement reads: “Workers! ‘his is the capitalist government of New York! James J Walker has demonstrated that he is carrying out the decisions of the Wall Street bankers. In the midst of the worst suffering and starvation that this city and country have ever faced, the bankers of New Yerk have feeided that the unempleyed workers shall go hungry, that no relief will be issued. What about the tremendous sal- aries that Jimmy Walker, McKee, and the borough presidents are getting— ana which they raised last year? What about the tens of millions of graft that are being put into the peckets of Jimmy Walker's Tammany henehmen? Walker thinks he can get away with it by saying that “We are res- ponsible to the people who elected us and we must either earry out their wishes or sit here and be told by outside sourees what we can do or cannot do.” These so-called “outside sources” are the bankers who contre! the city of New York! The people of New York do not want to starve—but Walker does not give a damn about them! The peeple of New York do not want to be denied work—but Walker tells them to go to hell! Workers! Is this not full proof of what the Communists have said: the government of the eity of New York and of the United States is a |bankers, a bosses’ government. Are | we going to stand for these ‘outside sourees” dictating that we shall die of hunger? Workers! demands: Fight for the following “{7No payment of the public debt seryice.

Mr. Taylor, Commissioner of Pub- lic Welfare, declares that “the situ- ation was never as serious as now.” Dr. J. L.

Walks Out Against Cut On Monday 20 workers of the mat- tress department of the Kay Mfg. Co. |at Warren St. Brooklyn, struck. ‘There are about 200 employed in the factory at the present time. The work~ ers have been earning wages from $3.28 to $11.25 a week. Recently the workers received 2 20 percent wage tcut. The final straw was the forcing of overtime work at straight pay. The department struck in solidarity with & worker who was fired for protesting against this overtime. All the strik- ers are young workers. The strikers, who have accepted ‘the leadership ef the ‘Metal Workers Industrial League, are very active and the shop is picketed continuously while energetic attempts are being made to draw the rest of the work- ers inte the strike.

Picketing is continuing. The bosses are using the rolice to intimidate the workers Tues- day afternoon the boss had a bunch of gangsters on the job, but they walked off when a strong committee of the union arrived. The bosses are visiting the strik- ers and tell them that they should be good fellows and quit the unien and go back to work, The strikers told the boss to settle with the union. ACW Rank and File Call Howard (Co. Workers to Strike Only Strike Struggle Will Defeat Wage Cut NEW YORK. — Workers of the Howard Clothing Co., Brooklyn Plant have been called to a shop meeting for teday at 2 p. m. at the Rand School Building by the officials of the Amalgamated. These workers today will be told by the officials that they are to ac- cept a wage cut and the re-organiza- tion of forces ef the shops which means that a number of workers will be eliminated entirely from their job with no prospects of getting another one for years to come. In a Jeaflet issued by the Amalga- mated Rank and File Committee to the Howard workers it states “The bosses of the Howard Clothing Co., with the consent of the officials of the Amalgamated is moving its work in the new plant in Philadelphia. “This is a plain lockout, conspired by the company in league with the union officials in order to further force you to accept more wage cuts, more re-organization and more mis- ery,” the leaflet continues, “Organization and action must be the answer to the Howard Clothing Co., and union officials attempts to deprive the workers from earning a piece of bread for themselyes and their children.” The leaflet concludes by saying “Declare a strike against the Howard OClething Co., only a strike struggle will be able to defeat the attempts of the bosses to move to Philadel- phia and cyt your cuts, “Elect a large Rank and File Strike Committee. Mass picketing should be immediately placed around the Howard Building. Every Howard Stere and store that sells Howard Clothes should be picketed. A large Rank and File Committee should be immediately send to Philadelphia to declare every Philadelphia shop that manufactures the Howard Clothes on strike.’ The appeal of the Rank and File Committee is that “only militant ac- tion and militant strike struggle will be able to win betier conditions for the Howard and other workers,” Workers of the Howard should get in touch with the Amalgamated Rank and File Committees at 126 Univers- ity Place, N.

Not satisfied with exploiting, club- bing and murdering workers at home, French imperialism—like all other {mperialisms — crosses the oceans to exploit colonial peoples. And when these colonials resist er- pleitation, the French imperialists murder them by the hundreds and hundreds of thousands, Furthermore, the imperialists— Trial of 10 Ky. . Strike Leaders) Shows Clearly That Court Is Tool of Coal Operators Judge Van Beber and Prosecutor Smith Con- stantly Prompted by Coal Operator’s Lawyer (From the Pineville County Jail) By VERN SMITH PINEVILLE, Ky., (by mail) —Judge Van Beber and prosecutor Walter Smith, agents of the coal barons, tried to spring a surprise hearing on the ten defendants, National Miners Union, International Labor Defender and the Werkers International Re- lief members, and labor press repre- sentatives arrested here in an attack on the Kentucky miners. The cage has settled down te a battle between the miners fer the right to a public hearing in which the arrested men and women will have a chance to answer some of the lies circulated about the union, Par- ticularly the operaters circulate a swarm of leaflets accusing the N.M. U. of engaging in a plot to overthrew the U. S. government and te destroy religion. ‘They persistently cireulate the falsehood that only Commynists can join the N.M.U, They know that if the defendants get the stand they will point out that the N.M.U. is engaged in a strike against starvation and terrer, that neither religion nor individuals and politics are questions affecting mem- bership in the N.M.U. Nor are religion er an attempt to overthrow the gov- ernment issues in the strike, although the Kentucky miners are rapidly dis- eovering that this is a capitalist gov- ernment, supporting the operators. On Jan. 5, 6 and 1, dates for which the hearing was set, there were too many miners in tewn te please the operators, and the hearing was post- poned. On Jan. 7 the hearing was set for Jan. 9, but on Jan, 8 when there were no miners around in Pine- yille, all the defendants were sud- denly called te court. Those who re- fused to go were told it was only for consultation, with the atterneys.

On Thurs, Jan. 14 there will be an affair to help the strikers at the Prospect Workers Club, 1157 Southern Blvd. The injunction itself sets a prece- dent. Tt forbids all picketing, and altempts to forhid the strike of all the workers who are out, There has been no violence in the strike and the bosses cannot charge this against the workers. Nevertheless, they are preparing to put the injunction over. ‘The strikers have been out now for six weeks. Despite the injunction, a prominent member of the bosses association, Garsky & Averbach, with stores at 3472 Jerome Ave. and 1879 Southern Bivd., were ferced to settle with the union yesterday, granting all demands of the union and severing with the bosses’ association, just as at home they set nationali- ties and sects against each other— employ @m@ group of colonials tc murder another.

Scottsbore Demonstration in Harlem Saturday, at Noon Protest Lynch Verdicts ! 9 Innocent Boys ; Demand Release of Call on N.A.A.C.P. to Give Up Funds NEW YORK.—Colored and white workers of Harlem will demonstrate this Saturday afternoon for the im- mediate, unconditional and safe re- lease of the nine innocent Negro boys, whose appeal against the hide- ous lynch verdicts comes before the Alabama Supreme Court on Jan, 21. The demonstration is called by the Leagye of Struggle for Negro Rights and the International Labor Defense, the two organizations lead~ ing the fight against this frightful frame-up and atempt to legally lynch innocent working-class children. A leaflet issued by these organizations points out the role of the growing lynch terror in the attempts of the bosses to crush the struggles of the colored and white workers against starvation, for unemployment. relief and social insurance and for full and unconditional equality of the Negro masses, Including the right of the Negro majorities in the Southern “Black Belt” to determine and con- trol their own form of government. ‘The leaflet exposes the traitorous activities of the N. A. A. C. P, mis- leaders in attempting to disrupt the defense and in holding on to funds they collected on the pretense of “defending” the boys, All nine of the boys, with their parents and other kin, have denounced the N. A. A. ©. P. for its alliance with the Southern lynch bosses and have de- manded that the N. A. A. C. P, turn over the funds collected in teh name of the boys to the United Front Scottsboro Defense Committee which is co-operating with the Interna- tional Labor Defense in defending the boys. The workers will mobilize at 2 o'clock Saturday afternoon at 12h St. and Lenox Ave. for the demon- stration, They will then march up Lenox Ave. to 136th St., turning east. to Fifth Ave., up Fifth Ave. to 139th St., west to Seventh Ave. and down Seventh Ave. to 131st St. and through to Lenox Ave. ‘The demonstration will wind up with a big protest meet~ Ing at the 8.

Then after still more strug- gle they wen the right to @ confer- ence off all the defendants with the attorneys (a privilege never granted before). The conference over, all returned to the court room, a tiny cubicle crowd- er with coal operators, and the agents including operators gunmen who last Saturday told Frank Borich and John Harvey they needed an undertaker, and the women whe head the Red Cross here and who tried Thursday to raise a gang to lynch the miners in jail. Then a further struggle developed over Taub's right to be an attorney in the case. The religious issue was injected by prosecutor Smith who de- manded of Taub whether he believed im god. All this was finally pushed aside. Taub afftrmed that he really Was an attorney and began to act in the case. The prosecutor announced that the date of the hearing was set for Sat- urday only to mislead the miners and claimed that their presenee might lead to bloodshed and “one drop of Kentucky blood is worth more than the Reds in all the world.” The prosecutor glaimed in open court that defense attorney Stone had agreed to this deception, but Stone got up and denied it. Then the Judge, taking his cue frem the prosecutor, confirmed the presecuters story. But the fat was in the fire. Stone stuck to his denial, and the defence teok the line that the whole proced- ure was an attack on the union. Finally the prosecution backed down and the hearing date was set for Tuesday Jan. 12. Various interesting facts developed in the affair Friday afternoon. Judge Van Beber is a coal oper- ater, either now or recently owner of the Log Mountain Coal Co., with a mine half way between Pineville and Middlesbero. He knows no law and takes all his opinions either from the prosecutor, or from Reed. Patter- son, counsel for the biggest coal op- erator here. Prosecutor Smith is a young wild- eyed spouter with the same-lack of tact and much of the mannerism of a yearling bull. Every time he gum-’ med up the record with something unusually silly or atrocious, Pattersen a shrewd eld war horse, weuld rise in court as “the friend ef the court” and state the law to a grateful Van Beber. The judge knows no law whatsoever, Patterson, fer instance, checked the tendency of the clique led by the Red Cross women, which was ap- plauding all of the prosecutor’s wild- est statements. After the court adjourned, Patter- son suddenly developed a fatherly in- terest in Taub, offering to get him out of jail, take him to his house, give him @ bath. “It's @ shame for a clean decent young lawyer like you to be in jail,” was Patterson's line. Taub refused. Patterson followed to the jail house, called Taub to the grating and twice repeated his over- tures. Taub refused again on the ground that everybody ought to be out but he wasn't taking individual favors | — from the coal operators’ chief eoun- sel, FEB, LABOR UNITY COMES OUT SOON Jan.

The workers defended themselves in court. The demonstration was under the leadership of the Upper Bronx Un- employed Councils. It demanded the immediate re-opening of the Home Relief Buros, immediate and ade- quate relief for themselves and their starving families. At first the police did no dare to attack the unemployed, to whom speakers of the Unemployed Coun- A. F. of L.

When the elected delegation wanted to go in to Publi cSchool 54 to voice the demands of the hun< dreds of unemployed in front of the schools, the police, numbering about 50, made the brutal attack. Many women and children were hurt and six of the delegation were arrested. ‘The workers, in spite of the attack, are determined to carry o nthe strug- gle until they will be provided with sufficient food, shelter and clothing.
