(By Mail) —Muni- cipal elections took place in the nearby town of Koeppelsdorf on Sunday, Oct. 2.

EMILE ZOLA MEETING PRESSED BERLIN.—The Berlin local group of the thoroughly bourgeois German Authors’ Association scheduled a public meeting on “Emile Zola and His Relation to the Present Day.” Among the speakers announce were Heinrich Mann, German novelist, and Karl A.

BERLIN, Oct. 25.—The Supreme Court today announced its verdict, on the petition of the Prussian Govern- ment of socialist ministers which was ousted by Chancellor von Papen on July 20 when a Federal commissioner was appointed to take over the state power. The verdict of the Supreme Court holds that the July 20 decree depriving the Prussian govern - ment of the right to exercise power was in accordance with the Consti- tution; but main- tainsthat the complete dismis - sal of the govern- ment had no con- Stituional justifi - cation. Practically the judgment of the Su- Preme Court represents a compro- mise consoling the socialist minis- ters of the deposed government with the shadow of offices while the Fed- eral Commissioner Bracht continues to hold complete administrative pow- er. The deposed Prussian government is allowed to sit in the state parlia- nt and appoint representatives to le Prussian Council. The Si me Court further de- clares in its judgment that the charge that the socialist ministers failed while in power to make full use of the state against the communists, is ~vithout basis, The political significance of the Ts were entitled to appeal against Von Papen’s putsch. ‘gy Japan Plans New Huge War Fund; Sets Up Jehol War Base Japanese government‘officials ye: terday discussed plans for ne: hee propriations for use against fanchurian masses, The dis- cussion took place at the home of Japanese War Minister Sadao Araki, cne of the leaders of the Japanese fascist movement, The Japanese military aim to es- tablish a principal Japanese military ie near the borders of Jehol Prov- ince North China and to also fe tl ince and i strat disposition of ipa fre ahs cia e Soviet Far East, stra- vaste, ppisposition of Japanese Sinope under way for several TOWARDS 15th ANNIVERSARY OF RUSSIAN REVOLUTION!

Two policemen came and asked» of the crowd who was working and who was not. They| separated them and the ones who were not working they took to jail. “At the jail the farmers came up and paid $5 fine for each Negro and took them to work for him. One of the Negroes came to K anq asked him to tell the police he worked for him as he did not want to‘work on a farm for nothing.” This is the fare that the Democratic city government of Dallas, which nearly lynched two white organizers in 1931, has for the Negro and white workers in 1932. Can Mr. Garner ex- plain why it is that he can pose as a friend of labor when these autocrities are being committed in his own state against the rights of the workers for the benefit of the rich plantation owners and landlords? FORCED LABOR | KANSAS CITY (By a Kansas City Worker) KANSAS CITY, Mo—Unemployed men in Kansas City this winter will be expected to “earn” the groceries given them by the city according to W. Rickert Fillmore, general chair- man of the charities campaign. Part time work on the project by the un- employed, to expand the zoo in Swope Park, will save the Zoological Society the hiring of 2,500 to 3,000 men, and payment will be made only in gro- ceries.

Comrade Stelin, speaking about the press as a medium of organizaticn, said the following: “The press is che only instrument by meaus ct which the Party speaks daily, hourly with the working class in its own language. There is no other way by which the spiritual threads between the Party and the working class can be spun, and noth- ing else is so flexible as the press.” Those workers and farmers who take pains to sit down and write their stories in their own language, will also be good organizers if given prop- er direction. In this new section, called “Chats With Our Worcorrs,” we will from time to time try to give some guid- anc? to our many worker correspond- ents, and ask them also to send in thes opinions and suggestions for this section. Mr, Fillmore, head of the charities campaign, explains that his scheme is to save the pride of these unem- ployed workers who are too proud to what will happen to the pride of the men who are being thrown out of work by this new forced-labor scheme. They will probably also get their “turn” on this part-time work in ex- change for groceries, on the very jobs on which they had expected to sup- Killed in Chicago Flop House CHICAGO, On Oct. 16 a report came to the Unemployed Council, Branch C. 1, that someone got knocked off from a window at the flop house at 216 Greene St., and died at the Cook County Hospital the next day.

For the of cementing a strong bond of solidarity between the workers of the Soviet Union and those of capitalist countries, the ship- building workers of Kiev call upon their foreign class brothers to enter into a regular exchange of letters with them. Dear Comrades: We, workers of the shipbuilding works, send you our bolshevist greetings. In connection with the XV anniversary of October Revolution we would gladly organize a regular ex- change of letters with you. We know very well in what miserable condi- tions you are working, we know your wages has been several times re- duced. The cause of it is that the state power in your country lays in the hands of capitalist and their lackeys, These elements would gladly if they only could do it, oppress the whole workers movement and dts- troy the Soviet Union—the father- land of the world proletariat and the cradle of the world revolution. Describe New Life The 15th anniversary of October Revolution will be marked with the starting of many new giant factories and works. Our shipbuilding works in Kiev will start two new freight ships: “Thalman” and Litvinov.” Now we are preparing ourselves to the winter ship-repairing campaign. For the purpose of organizing exemplary working process we decided to carry out the general inspection of all the sections and guilds of our works. In comparison with the pre-revo- Jutionary time our mode of life has completely changed. We can now send our children in the chil- dren—garden and public nurseries. While in the capitalist countries the reas workers’ meetings and demonstra- | fions are forbidden, we are pre- paring freely and joyfully for the celebration of the 15th anniversary of October Revolution. We are de- corating our club and preparing the presents for the children. Several foreign workers and specialists will be distinguished at this day with the Order of Req Banner for the heroic participation in the socialist construction work, Call for Struggle Against Boss War Dear comrades, the 15th anniver- sary of October Revolution is an historic feat, because it stands on the boundary between the first and second Five Year Plan of our so- cialist construction work.

Cutting Down Relief “Throughout the country the local and state governments are cutting down and restricting the measly re- lief that was given up until now. In- relief as the masses grow more po erty-stricken, instead of taking care of the millions that are in need, the local governments are everywhere cut- ting unemployed off the relief lists, cutting down on the baskets, taking the milk away from the children. Everywhere this is being done in the name of economy in order to satisfy the bankers who are in control’ of the governments. This whole policy of the local governments is in line with the policy of the federal gov- ernment everything for the rich and nothing for the poor. “But the workers have already shown in a number of instances that through their organized pressure they can compel the bosses to give relief. The best instance was the successful struggle of the Negro and white unemployed of St. Louis who through a continuous fight lasting for weeks in which they did not re- treat even in the face of the bloody attack made upon the unemployed. There the government which had cut off 13,000 families from the re- lief lists on the ground of “no funds” was compelled to place the workers back on the relief lists and “find” the funds. Not for a moment must the unemployed accept the lying pleas of the local governments.” “St. Louis shows the road to se- cure local relief everywhere in all communities. “But the local relief must be sup- plemented by immediate federal aid to the unemployed. Also the work- ers must fight for the adoption of a geunine system of unemployment insurance, Now in the fourth year of the crisis which is still sharp- ening it is quite clear that unem- ployment is no temporary affair. Already more than 15 million are unemployed with many millions on part time. Adequate relief must be provided, A system of unemploy- ment insurance must be provided. The masses of toilers can not bear the whole burden of the crisis. We must pl: the burden | where it belongs m the shoulders of the capitalists and their governments. Hoover Hunger Policy “The policy of the Hoover gov- ernment is one of handing over bil- lions in subsidies and loans to ‘the bankers, the rich but not a cent of relief to the unemployed.

At the same time an American military attache was ordered to make a survey of the military situation throughout Man- churia, “especially eastward from Mukden and westward from Tsitsi+ |har.” That is, in the territories near | the frontiers of the Soviet Union. The move is clearly an attempt by | American imperialism to (1) re-estab- lish its hegemony over China, a hege- mony threatened by the Japanese seizure of Manchuria and threat against North CHina, and by the de- flection of Chiang Kai-shek to the Ji is of American imperi- |alism; (2) to check its Japanese rival in China and turn the military act- ivities of Japan against the Soviet Union; (3) to push the war against the Chinese Soviet Republic and or- ganize the war of intervention against the Soviet Union.

A. F. L. Leaders Cut Wages “The capitalist governments, the bosses and the capitalist parties and Politicians are joined by the A. F. L. leaders in their efforts to make the workers bear the full burden of un- employment. They are asking the workers to support the various com- munity funds in order to make the workers instead of the bosses sup- port the unemployed. They are coming forward with the stagger plan and the “share work plan” in order to make the low-paid em- ployed and part-time worker sup- port the unemployed. They are opposed to direct federal relief. They are opposed to unemployment insurance. They are fully carrying through the policy of the bosses. “There is only one way to secure relief to stop evictions, There is only one way to win unemployment insurancak It is through united struggle of the employed and un- employed. The T. U. U. L. unions and the rank and file oppositions in the A. F, L. must especially give at- tention to mobilizing the employed workers to fight for the relief to the unemployed and for unemployment insurance. At the same time there must be a united fight against wage cuts, against the stagger plan, the work share plan and similar schemes against the workers. Spe- cial attention must be given to fight for the needs of the Negro masses who are the worst victims of the crisis subjected to special discrimina- tion in layoffs, in relief. “Comrades, Workers, Unemployed, Employed, Part time Workers, ~ “Into the fight in every city and town “Fight for immediate relief!

C., Oct. 26.— The committee of ten seamen elected at mass meetings in Atlantic coast ports and speaking in the name of 80,000. jobless seamen placed their demands yesterday for $1 a day job- Jess relief, not only at the White House, but at various other govern- ment departments affected by the} jobless seamen’s demands. One of their demands was for use of the laid up ships for residences for unemployed seamen. This they called particularly to the attention of the U. S. Shipping Board, at its offices in the Navy building. They also went to the head of the Marine Hospital service, emphasizing particularly their demand that sea- men, irrespective of how long they have been out of work, shall get medical care and treatment from the Marins Hospitals. | Will Be in Hunger March Their reception at these offices was about like that at the White House. They were given a pretense of wel- come and handshaking by high of- ficials, but not quite the highest, and @ promise to “consider the demands.” In each case they plainly warned the officials they would be back thous- ands strong in December with the National Hunger Marchers, and would insist on an answer. In the House of Representatives Office Building the Jobless Seamen's delegation walked in on Pedro Gue- vara, one of the two Philippine Is- | lands Resident Commissioners, a res- ident commissioner is a kind of un- official representative of some por- tion of the American Empire, en- titled to speak in the House of Rep- resenatives but not ,to vote there. Renegade Revolutionist Guevara was once a nationalist re- volutionist, in Aguinaldo’s days, but after that was bribed by a job in! the Philippine constabulary, hunting ' down other revolutionists, and is now an almost open agent of the U. S. sugar and tobacco imperialism in his country. One of the members of the com- mittee was a Filipino seaman. Gue- vara immediately offered him a bribe, said he could be sent back to the Islands and “would be a big figure there.” But the seamen brought Guevara back to the point, their demand that Filipino seamen no longer be dis- crminated against in pay and jobs, and relief, and that if they wanted to go home should not go as “workaways” without pay, but should have passage paid by the company or the government. His Advice, “Don’t Work” They pointed out that cutting the Filipino seamen’s pay led to similar cuts in the pay of other workers on U. S. ships. Guevara threw the whole thing up to the private com- panies, saying that the government would do nothing. He said the Fili- pino seamen “should not take jobs at @ wage cut below other marine workers.” “What do you want them to do? Starve?” asked George Mink, spokes- man of the delegation. “No, just don’t work at the low wages,” said the resident commis- sioner, smugly. The seamen expressed their opinion hotly about the resident commissioner to his face and walked out, KIDNEY AGONY? ‘Here's quick relief from of beckaches, bure- ing biadder pains.
