There are no rich in America today, They don’t know where they stand. The highest type of riches as person- ified in this country today has practically vanished and men are afraid to look at their ledgers to see if they are worth anything.” Following in the footsteps of the Wall Street representatives who ar-/| gued for reduction of the income tax) because their are no more rich, and soon after the similar statement of Fred L. French, millionaire construc- | tor, Charles Schwab continued the steady stream of demagogy now spread wholesale to appease the| wrath of the starving millions.

How near Schwab is to the poor house is also indicated by the fact that the Bethlehem Steel Corp. made a clear profit of $42,242,980 in 1929 and $23,843,406 in 1930.

From all parts of the city and county these workers, ‘who had pre- viously assembled at their fixed con- centration points, began to march downtown to Court House Park where they arrived at noon. With cheers they elected a delega- tion to appear before the Unem- ployment Commission of Governor White that was meeting with Mayor Thatcher and his advisors at the Commodore Perry Hotel. Then they marched through the downtown sec- tion of the city and shouted their slogans for unemployment insurance and immediate relief. The echo of the marchers rang through the walls of the Commodore Perry Hotel as the workers passed by. Several good speakers of the Un- employed Council and the Commu- nist Party spoke from the steps of the McKinley Monument, exposing the attempts of the bosses to unload the burden of the present economic crisis on the shoulders of the work- ers and voicing the demands of the employed and unemployed workers for social insurance at the expense of the bosses, against the new rob- ber war being prepared by the capi- talists, for the defense of the Soviet Union, for turning all war funds to the unemployed workers, for immedi- ate relief, for the release of the | Scottsboro and all other class strug- | gle prisoners.

The bour- geois press 2 few days ago announceu that the State Department had asked Governor Miller of Alabama for in- formation on the Scottsboro cases The State Department is thus asking the Alabama lynchers for their own version of their murderous frame-up against the boys. The nine boys were framed up in March, 1931, on a charge of “raping’ two white prostitutes who were tra velling on the freight train on which the boys had left their homes in a vain hunt for work. The two girls at first denied that the boys had molested them, or that they had ever seen the boys on the train, When, however, the Alabama offi- cials threatened the girls with prose- cution for prostitution unless they helped the lynch frame-up, the girls changed their stories and accused the doys of “raping” them. The boys were tried in a lynch atmosphere at Scottsboro, eight of | them rushed to death sentences within 72 hours, while a band fur- nished by textile mill bosses played outside the court and free whiskey was srved, to whip up a lynch spirit.
