ENORD is the master-—Murphy, the lickspittle! Murphy shares the guilt of his master. “Ford controls the Wayne County and Detroit city ad- | ministration through Mayor Murphy, County Prosecutor Toy, and Martel of the Central Labor Council of the American Federation of Labor, in alliance with the gangsters. Norgan Thomas, leader of the socialist party, made a special trip t® congratulate Murphy on his election. -. On June, 30, 1931, Ford loaned the Murphy government $5,000,000 with the provision that unemployment relief and | public works were to be cut down in order ot place the un- | employed workers more at the mercy of Ford and other big | ‘auto capitalists. | Early in 1930 Murphy jailed some of the rivals of his | gangster supporters—they, were foreign born—and then | started a campaign against foreign born workers who have | piled up the Ford fortune. On Feb. 6, 1930, Murphy ordered | all foreign born workers discharged from city employment. Toy, who was to prosecute the gangsters for the mur- | der of Gerald Buckley, radio announcer, became “ill” during | the first trial and the trial was suspended indefinitely. (Graft and gangsters—By Garry Gannes—Workers Library Pub- lishers.). Toy believes that capitalists like Ford and gangster allies of Ford and Ford’s police, have the right to murder at will. None of the murderers of workers has been arrested. But Toy and Murphy carried out mass arrests after the massacre of the unemployed hunger marchers at Dearborn— jailing more than fifty workers and issued warrants for Wil- liam Foster, Bud Reynolds, other leaders of the unemployed, including John Schmies who was the Communist candidate against Murphy in the last election. Toy is calling a grand jury session—secret. i Murphy, ni his circular telegram published yesterday in the Daily Worker, says that the Toy investigation is “to determine the facts” of the muhrehs and maimings. | This is a brazen lie. The purpose is to whitewash the | Ford-Murphy-Toy-Martel-American Legion machine and frame up unemployed workers, their leaders and organizers. The grand jury investigation is part of the drive against | the Communist Party—it is part of the whole starvation and | war drive of Wall Street government. Mass exposure of the whole Ford murder machine in Michigan, organization of mass struggle for the demands of the unemployed workers, the strengthening of the Unem- ployed Councils, the building of the Auto Workers Union in the factories—and the recruiting of the militant Detroit workers by hundreds into the ranks of the Communist Party —this is'the way to make the revolutionary answer to Ford and his political machine whose latest bloody acts have shown its program is one of hunger enforced by mass murder. The Ford Massacre and the | German Elections German social democrats, in aiding thé capitalist class and the * foreign imperialists to put over the rationalization program upon the Masses, promised that a standard of living “equal to that of the Ford workers” would be established. ... The Ford massacre came on the eve of the German elections. After 10 days of silence as to the mighty mass struggle being waged by the Communist Party of Germany against the three major parties of re- action, the capitalist press is forced by the pressure of the decisive political events to admit that the Communist election meeting in the Sports Palast, Berlin, was excelled in enthusiasm, mass mobilization and working elass representation any of the meeting of the Hitlerites, Hungenberg candidates « lenburg meetings supported by the whole official ma- chinery of ¢ 1 democrats. “21 social democracy has adinitted bankruptcy. It has not eyen put uv its own candidate, but has formed a coalition with those vict, elerical, nationalists end capitalist elements who are still out- “ $i@e the ss of fascism.

(Foreign Correspondent ‘of Daily Worker) \ MOSCOW, March 11.—A detachment of White Guards crossed the Soviet frontier Wed- nesday night near Blagoveshchensk from Manchuria. They were intercepted by Red Army frontier guards in a sharp encounter in which six White Guards were killed. The rest of the White Guards fled back. This White Guard raid is of tremendous significance because | of the fact that the infamous attack upon the Soviets by Chinese militarists in 1929 was also preceded by such White Guard border raids. | | | | | {| Hungry Workers; Demand Indemnity for || Families, Compensation for Wounded Workers’ Homes Being Searched; Police Stilt | Seeking to Arrest Schmies, Reynolds, Goetz, Pace and Other Workers’ Leaders Plan National Mobilization Against Imperialist 7. v.
