NEW YORK, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 1932 CITY EDITION Price 3 Cents URGES A UNITED | STRUGGLE ON HUNGER AND WAR Fight for Right to Live This Winter, Says Candidate NEW YORK.—“Hoover says no one will be allowed, to suffer this winter; we have heard that before from Hoo- ver and last year more rosily than this year,” said William Z. Foster, Communist presidential candidate, in an interview with the Daily Worker yesterday. Foster is at his home, re- cuperating on doctors’ orders, from a serious illness which hindered tem- porarily his election campaign tour. The Communist candidate continued: “Hundreds of thousands, millions will be starving if the Hoover pro- gram goes through. Hunger will be more intense than ever. Foster has just returned to.New York from his tour which he,was compelled to tem- porarily discontinue as the result of illness, He ig resting at his home, Se a Day “Relief” “The Hoover policy of ‘rugged in- dividualism’ and local relief means a! hunger diet of 9c per day which pre-| vails in Syracuse; lle a day in Bing- hamton; in the state administered by Franklin D. Roosevelt. This is one- third of what prisoners get in the county jails. Hoover’s policy will even reduce this starvation level. The Communists will do everything to stimulate the struggle against this condition and Hoover's policy. They will develop the maximum of forces through the Unemployed Councils to organize demonstrations and fight fo radequate relief and unemployment. insurance, “There is no doubt that the united front call issued in Chicago by~the Communist Party will find its echo in the localities and factories in the farming regions. This winter will see the sharpest struggles. Hoover's pol- icy supported by Ntwion D, Baker, democrat, expressing the policy of big bankers and of the capitalist parties, whether republican or democrat, will drive the workers and farmers to close ranks as they will realize that only upon their own resources and activ-} ities can they ~scape from the delib- erate policy of starvation. “In considering the rank and file call for action and the program of Hoover, the rank and file will respond to the call for action. To rely upon the American Federation of Labor and Railroad labor chiefs, means to receive wage cuts.” Bonus Fight Significant Commenting upon the action of |the American Legion in overwhelm- ingly reversing the stand of its last convention and adopting the bonus, censuring the war department, Foster stated that: “This was an indication of the deep undercurrent that is sweeping the rank and file workers, impoverished farmers and ruined middle class elements.” At the same time, he stated, “to allow the leader- ship of the American Legion to con- duct the fight, means to ditch the bonus. The American Legion leader- ship is no more for the Lonus than the A. F. of L. is for unemployment insurance, although the latter was compelled to give lip service to this popular issue among the workers. The Legion leaders are only for the bonus in words. They will make no strug- gle for it and will attempt to break up the rank and file movement for its achievement, The success of the struggle for th ebonus lies in the organization of the rank and file within the Legion and the establish- ment of a united front of struggle +etween them and the militant vet- rerans inside the Workers’ Ex-Ser- vicemen’s League. The convention of the WESL will be a signal for more united ‘and intense struggle for the fight for the bonus.” Hoover-Roosevelt Farm Program In regard to the question of Roose- velt’s stand on the farmers, Foster pointed out that the program of Roosevelt does not depart in any re- spect from that of Hoover. His vague assertion and general program is in line with the policies that have been put forward by the bankers and grain trusts from time to time. The farm- ers can find nothing in Roosevelt's program to lift them out of the deep going crisis, Vote Communist Asked who would win the election Foster stated that undoubtedly Roo- sevelt would capitalize upon the dis- content of the country. (That is why he has been put forward with a de- magogic platform). Foster stated that he found no enthusiasm for Roose- velt’s posit He emphasized that Roosevelt's platform was identified with that of Hoover's and that there (The following eye-witness re- port is a vivid example of “local relief” in operation in Detroit, un- der a democratic city administra- tion. It is Herbert Hoover's pro- gram in effect, as against Un- employed Insurance demanded by the Communist Party.) ests By GEORGE COOPER Special Correspondent, Daily Worker DETROIT, Mich., Sept .16—In the western section of Detroit, walk into Clark Park, turn down “Prosperity Boulevard,” and you are in “Mur- phyville,” Democrat Mayor Frank Murphy's latest device for “taking care of” evicted unemployed families. Here, in leaky, inadequate tents do- nated by private individuals, live some thirty families, the victims of Murphy's police eviction policy. Every day, according to the city’s own rec- ords, some fifty to 150 families are evicted because they cannot pay rent. Where most of them go, no one knows. Some move into the rooms of relatives or friends who have not yet been evicted; in one home I found fourteen such people, three families, living in two rooms. Others leave Detroit to go to relatives, slightly less unfortunate, in other cities; other move into back yards, alleys, lots, chicken coops, abandoned factories or garages. But here, in Clark Park, are these families living in tents. Early yesterday morning a heavy rain fell. The tent colony became a mud hole; the water rose to the level of the beds, soaking mattresses and clothes and blankets. The children began to cry frantically, and their bewildered parents waded through the flood to take their children to the park. toilets, .the only shelter available. The water had not yet re- ceded when I came to Clark Park that afternoon. Bedragged, wet, hun- gry, miserable, men and women and children stood around wondering how they could possibly sleep that night on the soaked mattresses. A Polish family, seven children, all Workers’ United Front Will Force Jobless Insurance of them under ten, the mother heavy with child—an eighth, due in two weeks—the fathér, an unemployed Ford worker, who had given ten years of his life to Henry Ford. The mother pointed mutely to the wet beds. For the nine of them, they got a welfare check for nine dollars for two weeks. There was no place to cook the meagre food, except to make some coffee over an impover- ished fireplace of a few bricks; the rest was dry, cold food. Face Slop Line What they were going to eat when the few cans of food they had left were gone? They were afraid there would be no more grocery checks. That meant they would have to walk that once a day the soup kitchen where slop is served twice a day. Milk for the children? The groceries didn’t like to give milk. But she had heard that. once a da ythe soup kitchen. gave some milk to the very littlest children; so when they were cut off from the groceries and given tickets to the soup kitchen, maybe the chil- dren would get some milk. All the families in Clark Park can think of nothing but getting out of Clark Park. ‘The flood has made it impossible for anyone to hope to sleep there this night. The welfare department man had promised to to find rooms for them. “But here we still are,” they ery, “Surely they offered me rent money,” says another Ford-worker bitterly, “ “They give me: a card saying the welfare guarantees one month’s rent at ten dollars. First of all, I can’t find no flat to house me and my wife and children for ten dollars, and second, if I did, the landlord wouldn’t give it to me, with the welfare guaranteeing just the one month’s rent.” “They want us to move in with another family the wel furniture worker told me. “That means eight of us living in one room. And to make sure we either do that or go somewhere where we won't bother the welfare, they’ve even taken away from us the wet blankets.” “All they let us bring into the tents was some bedding. The rest of our furniture is taken away by the wel- fare to be stored at our expense. They don’t let us have anything in the tents because they want to get us out quick.” Spirit of Fight The contrast between the Clark Park residents and John Mitchell is an inspiring one. ‘Their bewilder- ment, fear and trembling, find no reflection in John Mitchell. With the broad, powerful build of the heavy worker, and a big, confident grin wreathing his face, John Mitchell greeis me and leads me into his new home, His last home he was evicted front last Saturday, but it was a most expensive eviction for the po- lice and the landlord. In the largest eviction fight that has yet been | fought, lasting over two weeks, and ending ‘with a battle royal between ten thousand sympathizers and 300 Police, John Mitchell was finally evicted. “But they give me this place in- stead, quick,” said John, pointing to his six pleasant rooms, porch and back yard. “That welfare man who move me, what I say goes” announced John. “Where I tell him to put fur- niture he put.” The welfare super- visor had been there three times to see that John was comfortably set- tled; the walfare check had been given promiptly, and extra tickets for flour and milk. “See,” said the wel- fare man, “I told you not to make such a fuss. Aren’t we taking care of you?” “But I knew better,” said John, grinning. “If I didn’t fight and the Unemployeq Council didn’t fight the cops I'd now be in Clark Park, ENDA come an actuality. Remove this danger. of the situation, The policy of the capitalists of doing everything to throw the bur- dens of the crisis upon the backs of the workers, of conducting a bar- baric drive against the conditions at home is further illustrated by the systematic preparations for imperial- ist war abroad. The drive against the Soviet Union which is success- fully \constructing socialism, is the answer to any ideas that capitalism will give way without. a struggle. The danger of war has not let up in the least. The actions of the interna- tional working-class’ and the sys- tematic policy of peace pursued by the Soviet Union, has prevented the war hounds of the capitalists from leaping at the threat of the Soviet Union up to the present time.

Investi- gators to use every method of drag- ging out investigation of new appli- cations for weeks and months, and to look for every possible excuse to drop old cases. “Investigators, in the first place, are instructed to delay the opening of an investigation as long as possi- ble. And when they finaly do come around to investigate weeks after the date on which the application was made, the investigator to make the jobless worker show in detail just how it is that he has managed to stay alive in the weeks since he first asked the Bureau for, but failed to get food. “Insist on knowing fully all sources of income,” are the instructions to investigators, “if the applicant is evasive, that proves decisively that |HOOVER PROGRAM | | in “full force” carrying out secret | The Hoover Hunger Plan in Practice OOVER admits worse starvation this year than ever before, but he says that all the government will give is the already granted and already largely consumed Red Cross | wheat and cotton and not a cent for relie f, | Hoover says federal aid to the | jobless would destroy charity and loving kindness, but he gives Dawes, the banker, $90,000,000, and other Ex-Vice-President Dawes, the anker. millions to railroads and other | bankers, | Hoover says every man is his brothers’ keeper, but he sent caval- ry, tanks and bombs to drive the starving ex-servicemen out of | Washington and to burn their | homes, | MERC oe Hoover boasis that his building | program will revive business, and at the same time orders depart- | mental heads to lop off half a bil- | lion dollars frgym the program.

That “great ben- | evolent agency”, the New York Home Relief Bureau, is operating instructions issued by the city ad- | ministration to cut off tens of thou- sands of workers completely from relief. The relief lists are practi- | cally closed to tens of thousands | of new applicants who are in urg- for relief, Pee pee Hoover's program of “local relief” as it operates in the city of De- troit under the demagogic Mayor Murphy, the Democrat, results in the eviction of 50 to 150 families daily, and must not get relief.” The bur- den of the proof is‘on the starving applicant to show why he is not dead.” In other words, if McKee’s “relief” policy is allowed to stand, a jobless worker in New York will only be able to convince the City Home Bureau that they really need relief by dying before he gets in. “Red tape is to be multiplied in other ways too. Investigators are in- structed to insist on the applicant giving his past employment history in the fullest detail (also a means of spying on past strike activities, etc., of the workers). And then as the Supervisor in one of the Manhattan branches of the Home Bureau put it: “If the employment history falls short of Home Bureau requirements, so much the better, then we don’t have to look for any other excuse to drop the application.” ‘The Hoover program, like the Mc- Kee program, means spying on the jobless workers through the police census, terrorizing them, picking out for special discrimination those who are ready to fight for the right to live, checking up the foréign born workers for deportation. It means that the worker will be treated like a criminal. And above all it means actual star- vation of hundreds of thousands al- ready cut off the relief lists.

Those who do not “volun- tarily” cut their own pay, will face the prospect of disharge.

He covers this criminal action, this condemnation of the jobless to misery and starva- tion, with the “dawning hope” that business will be better, and the pious declaration that loans to banks and railroads will help. But the billions given the capitalists by the govern- ment helps only them and not the unemployed. $90,000,000 to Dawes Even President Green of the A. F. L. who has followed Hoover's plans slavishly, has been forced to admit in his Labor Day speech that all the donations to bankers and corpora- tions including the $90,000,000 given to former Vice President Dawes, has not helped employment even a trifle. Hoover himself in his economy letter to departmental heads forced reduc- tion of the 1934 building program by $500,000,000, saying “such expendi- tures must be less necessary for em~ ployment purposes after June.” Hoover did not mention federal, unemployment insurance. But he at- tacked it, with the following amaz- ing argument: “Personal feeling and personal responsibility (Deductions from, the workers’ wages.—Editor) of men to their neighbors is the soul of genuine good will; it is the essential foundation of modern society.
