This is véry in- adequate when one. considers the number of families in néed. In lieu of the local charity agencies refusals, of aid this organization supplies to & workers’ family what it can. This if not opposed by the charity offi- cials who seé in it that the mislead- ers are really helping to shift the burden of the crisis more and more to the shoulders of the workers. ‘Their motto is “No work—No eat.” 25 Centé in Food for 6 Hours Work I worked six hours and réceived a five-cent can of milk, a stall loaf of stale bread, ard sortething less than two pounds of fish. The total amounted to not more than twenty or twenty-five cents. If the Chinese bosses are in need of cheaper labor than that which they have, they should investigaté these Progressive Producers of Washington. Of course the misleaders knowing that I was talking against such me- thods of obtaining “relief” told me I was in the wrong local and asked me to resign, thus getting my name off of thé list. They also talk about getting $50,000 from the city in some mysterious Manner with- out the aid of mass préessufe and militancy and I am exposing this to the workers.

BREAD STRIKE IN NEWARK SOON Working Women Call Conference, Friday NEWARK, N. J., June 15—A con- ference, called by the Working Women’s Couricil and the Unem- ployed Council of Newark, N. J., of|* all workers’ mass organizations for the purpose of organizing a campaign for the reduction of the price of bread will take place Friday at 8 p.m. in the International Workers" Order Center, 347 Springfield Ave. The price of bread in Newark and vicinity, today, is 9 and 10 cents a pound loaf and 20 cents a dozen of rolls, the same as in 1926 before the crisis. The last three years of depression and unémployment resulted in the wholesale impoverishment of the masses, reduced their income by one- half, and yet the price of bread, which constitutes one of the most important necessities of life, remains the same. Concrete plans will be worked out at the conference in preparation for a bread strike in the various neighborhoods for 6 cents a pound loaf and 12 cents for a dozen of rolls, without any reduction in the pres- ent rate of the pay of the workers in the baking industry.

SCHENECTADY, N. ¥., June 15.— Thousands of leaflets are being dis- tributed in preparation for the first Presidential Election meeting here. ‘The meeting will be in Crescent Park, on Thursday, June 16, at 7:30 p.m. James W. Ford, vice-presidential candidate on the Communist ticket, will be the main speaker, In Albany In Albany the Election Campaign Committee applied for a permit for an outdoor meeting on the date Com- tade Ford will be in that city, and Chief of Police Shmuley and Com- missioner of Public Safety Cood re- fused to grant it, saying: “Well, if you want to get arrested, go ahead and have the meeting.” The Com- mittee does not’ want Ford's meeting to be broken up, because it wants the workers to be able to hear the pro- gram of the Party in the coming elections. They have therefor hired Engelmand’s Hall, at 113 S. Pear! st., for Friday evening, June 17, at 7:30 p.m. Delegates are being elected at vari- ous workers’ meetings to attend the State Nominating Convention, to be held in this city on Sunday, June 19) Plans are also under way to hold Election Campaign meetings, for the first time, in Johnstown and Gloversville. . After his Albany meeting, Ford will speak Saturday at an open air rally at 6 p.m. in Bleeker Square, Gloverville, N. Y. After the Gloverville meeting, Ford goes to speak Sunday in Bos- ton, at 10 a.m. in the Municipal Au- ditorium, at the Massachusetts state convention of the Communist Elec- tion campaign, and also in Boston, at 8 pm. at L’Ouverture Hall, 1065 ‘Tremont St., Monday at 8 p.m. After that he speaks in Concord, June 22, and on June 23, in Lawrence.

Meeting “They’re Losing Faith; Promise Something!” (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) senting his recommendations in the name of the A. F. of L. before the convention committee on resolutions, that millions are starving to death. But this meant to Green only that: “The morale of Millions has sunk to a low ebb. Spir- itual values are depressed. What is needed is the creation of faith con_ fidence and vision.” Workers Dissatisfied That is, Green is concerned noly with warning the agents of big busi- ness in convention assembled, that the starving workers are losing their ystem. Green asks for more words in the Republican platform to soothe the jobless and “create faith” in capital- ist institutions! For a Wage Cut His practical suggestions were for @ declaration in favor of the five-day week, without a word for a full week’s wages—that is, for a modification of the already prevalent Hoover stagger system, part time work with wage cuts. He asked, what Hoover proposes already and what will not help the jobless at all, that Federal funds be turned over to cities and states for more building contracts, and perhaps for a little more to the capitalist charities. For Coal Control Green and the AF.L. leadership proposed amendments of the Sher- man Act to legalize more and bigger monopolies; he proposed the passing of a bill now before congress to fas- cize the coal fields and drive thou- sands of miners out of the industry, and he advocated “strengthening the Department of Labor.” More Power to Doak ‘What Green means by “strength- ening the department of labor” is in- dicated by his presence at a banquet given Secretary of Labor Doak by the heads of A-F.L. unions in Chicago. Doak is the chief jailer of Edith Berk- man, Doak has deported hundreds of militant workers in the last year, and is still trying to deport, among oth- ers, Borich and Kemenoyich, the leaders of the National Miners Union. Green said, at the Doak banquet: “IT at proud of the record of labor during the depression.” This phrasé was re-echoes by Keynoter Dickin- son, at the convention, » 7,000 Demonstrate CHICAGO, Ul, June 14 (Delayed in Transmission).—Over 7,000 Negro and white jobless and part time work- ers, including women and young workers, responded to the call of the Unemployed Councils here and dem- onstrated today against the Hoover starvation program. They gathered, in spite of police orders prohibiting them from doing so, on the streets leading to the Republican Party Na- ‘al Convention Hail Three thousand of the demonstra- tors held a meeting at the corner of Monroe and Jackhon Blvd., only two blocks from the convention, and con- tinued it in militant fashion for an hour anq fifteen minutes, Mrs. Osby, Negro woman candidate on the Communist ticket, and Moss, an ex-serviceman, and Manager Good of the “Workers Voice,” Banks of the Unemployed Council and Dana of the Young Communist League and others spoke at the mass meeting. After the meeting at Honore and Jackson, the unemployed formed ranks and marched toward the Sta- dium where the convention was meet- ing. They carried placards denounc- ing Hoover's starvation of millions of workers, and demanding no deport- ations and no war on the Soviet Union. In spite of police attacks they marched for a block and a half. Swarms of mounted police charged them, tore up the banners and finally broke the ranks of the protesting Jobless. Tne meeting adopted a resolution to send to Hoover and the United States senate and house of represen- tatives, demanding the payment of the soldiers’ bonus, demanding un- employment insurance at the expense of the state and the employers, and Protesting vigorously agajnst the Dies unemployed andj Hutcheson Program Means Starvation NEW YORK.—A real hot answer to President Hutcheson of the Inter_ national Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America is made by Local Union 2717 of Brooklyn. Hut- cheson circularized the locals, of which tHere are 2,800 in the union, condemning the Workers Unemploy- ment Insurance Bill, condemning as a “Communist self-appointed com_ mittee” the New York A.F.L.

The local points out that Hutcheson is trying to misrepresent the bill for which the local stands, and therefore enclosés a copy of the bill with its | local. Local 2718 demands that the | bill be published in the union paper, The Carpenter, so that all may read it, and that its present circular letter to the locals also be published. The local points outt hat since President, Green of the A.F.L, made his gentleman's agreement with Hoo- ver for no strikes and no wage cuts, billions have béne given by the gov- ernment to the employers, nothing has been given to the starved unem- ployed, and that there are lots of wage cuts. Hutcheson’s whole circular, says the local, provés-again Hutcheson sup_ ports the Greens and Wolls of the AFL, and the Vancouver Convention decision against insurance. And all this is to “put the burden of the crisis on the shoulders of the workers and to refuse unemployment insurance to the millions of unemployed workers.” “We chafge that President Hut- cheson disregarded the sufferings of our carpenter membership of whom 75 per cent are totally unemployed and the others working part time at bootleg scale of wages. Our perspec- tives are: no work, complete starva- tion.” “We ask the Hutchesons, and Duf_ fies: What are you doing and what do you intend to do to fight the act- ual starvation and state of helpless- ness that predominates among us union carpenters? They know as well as we all know that if there would be a system of some security. for the starving unemployed carpenters by unemployment insurance and relief, our members would not be compelled to go to work for $3 @ day of 20 cents an hour as is the case in many instances today form our chiefs that city relief or_ ganizations are sending non-union | men on construction work at any rate they will forfeit relief in the future?” VOTE COMMUNIST FOR: 3.
