It was clear that he realized more than demagogy would be necessary to side-track the ques- tion of starvation which Wirfter had raised. “Bankers More Important Than the Workers” ‘The first demand presented by Winter was that of $10 a week for each family of two and $3 a week additional for each dependent.

Endorsement by the city government of Unemployment In- surance to be pail: by the govern- ment and employers as well as im- mediate cash payment of the bonus to war veterans. Mayor McKee Answered: 1. “No. Where would we get th? money? The city has to continue paying interest on its loans.” 2, Refused to answer. 3. “We will not do that, nor will we permit the homeless to live in the empty apartments.” 4, Refused to answer. 5. ‘“That depends on the attitude of the bankers toward more loans to the city, after Oct. 1.” 6. Refused to answer. 7. Refused to answer on unem- ployment insurance bill. But to the question on the bonus, McKee an- swered: “I shall not ask the Board of Aldermen to endorse the payment of the bonus, and I shall not ask it to condemn the attack on the veterans.” lions impoverished working men, women and children in this city un- less through greater mass pressure they forced the City government to change its position. The 30 delegates, elected by work- ers on breadlines, in flophouses, trade block . committees, Unem- ployed Councils and workingclass ‘fraternal organizations, and led by Carl Winter, sceretary of the Unem- pard, Communist candidate for Lieu- tenant Governor of New York, were admitted through the steel ring of police that encircied City Hall at pi eanos entered.. the . luxuriously ap} reception room of the wey pemecrney” in Cit Hal in Citl Hall The :.richly-clother city officials, flanked by high ranking officers of the police department, were in sharp contrast to. the shabbily dressed Negro and white workers who had been elected by the masses of the city to present their demands for meas- wes that would alleviate their un~ bearable starvation. McKee forced the delegation to wait for five minutes to impress them swith the weight of his “importance.” As he strode into the room, accom- panied by a half dozen uniformed guerillas, police and the officials jumped to attention as if they were ais, nobles paying homage to , Still wearing the mask of “neutral- ity” on the question of relief which workers suicide, of the recent cuts in relief which have brought the lief distribution to 30 cents a for those “luckf” enough to [ceiving relief... By the time be re- had finished describing the conditions another one of the demands was that the city appropriate $100,000,000 for this purpose. McKee then asked Winter’ what in his opinon the city should do if the $100,000,000 wouldn’t be enough to take care of all the needs of the unemployed in New York. Winter answered that the un- employed workers demanded that the city in that case refuse to pay inter- est on the loans that the bankers have made to the city, the money thus saved to be used for the relief of the unemployed. After trying to confuse the issue by saying that “bondholders,” not bankers, had loan- ed the city the money, McKee said pointblank that the city would con- tinue to pay interest on the bankers’ Joans, and implied very openly that. if the bankers demanded it the city would cut relief after Oct. 1. When Winter said: “Then your answer is that bankers are more important than starving workers?” McKee re- plied: questions. Don’t heckle me.” On the question: of the repeal of the eviction law, another of the de- mands of the unemployed, McKee’s answer was that the city would neither do that nor permit the home- less. to live in the thousands of emp- ty apartments in every section of the city. . McKee Drops Mask of “Neutrality” By the time Winter had finished presenting the 16 demands, McKee had dropped his mask completely and ‘was openly hostile to Winter and the entire delegation. In his summing up speech to Win- ter’s statement, McKee made the fol- lowing announcements: All‘relief after Oct. 1 would de- pend on the attitude of the bankers towards the question of relief, and of the “burden” that the tax-payers coild stand, He also hinted broadly that private charity (the block-aid) would have to take care of more of pl f While “appreciating” the. suffering that the unemployed workers must be going through, he could promise them nothing because of the “limit~ ed” resources of the city.

Cents Jobless Tell McKee How to Get Funds Needed for Relief NEW YORK—It is not true, as McKee and the capitalist press say, that the delegation from the unemployed workers of New York “could not tell the Mayor how to raise the money to meet their demands for relief.” The delegation. presented the following plan: 1.—Transfer to the unemployment relief fund of the $200,000,000 now designated by the Board of Estimate for payment to the bankers who hold bonds on the city. 2.—Cutting of all salaries of city officeholders down to $3,500 a year, but not cutting of the wages of the civil service employes (teach- ers, firemen, street cleaners, etc.). 3.—Raising the taxes on the rich until there are enough funds to pay relief as demanded by the unemplpoyed.

Sept. 10, 1932,.McKee met the same demands with the remark: “Why do you always déniand, why don’t you request?” When pinned down, he stated that he was more interestéd in seeing the bondholders got paid than in distributing relief. 10,000 MARCH IN CLEVELAND Walker played sick.
