DUBLIN, Nov. 5 (By mail). —The | bankers and industrialists of the Irish | Free State have organized a White Guard Army to support the former \Cosgrave government’s licies of compromise with British imperialism. The Fianna Fail government of De Valera not only tolerates this horde of armed ruffians, largely compsoed of { pensioners of the notorious Royal | Irish Constabulary—the hated Black- | and-Tans, but sends Civic Guards and the detectives of the Criminal | r Investigation Department to protect | sterdam! | it in its raids upon workers’ districts. On October 30th, this Fascist mob 1,000 strong descended upon the town of Mallow, clubbing and terrorizing the townspeople, many of whom are supporters of the very De Valera who affords these White Guards his of-| © ficial protection.

Poe tae POLISH WORKERS DEFY COPS; CELEBRATE REVOLUTIION ANNIVERSARY ¢ WARSAW, Poland, Nov. 20.—The preparations of the Polish proletariat to celebrate the fifteenth anniversary of the Russian revolution met with the usual preventive police terror, According to the bourgeois press re- ports over 400 arrests were made in Warsaw alone in the night from the 6th, to the 7th of November with a view of disorganizing the prepara- tions for the demonstrations, Despite this campaign of repression, demon- strations took place in many parts of the city. Ps eee NEW GERMAN IMPERIALISM BERLIN, Nov. 20.—The “Berlin am Morgen” reports that a group of lead- ing German industrialists and fi- j Nance capitalists led by Jacob Gold- ey and Otto Wolf, intend to found a company to take part in the imperialist exploitation of the petro- leum fields in Ti * TRY TO INTIMIDATE CATALO- NIAN VOTERS BARCELONA, Noy. 20.—Hundreds of extra police and armored cars pa- trolled this city in an attempt to in- timidate working class voters in the election of 87 members to the new Catalan Parliament.

AND FATHER- LAND!” TEGUCIGALPA, Honduras, Nov. 20—The government claims that its troops yesterday recaptured Santa Barbara from the rebel forces. At the same time President Colindres issued an appeal to the insurrection- ists “in the name of the dearest in- terests of the fatherland” to aban- don their armed opposition to the government which is controlled by the United Fruit Company whose in- terests thus become “the dearest in- of the fatherland!” “The struggle against militarism must not be postponed until the moment when war breaks out.

It is marked with the most vicious lies and abysmal igno- rance of the tactics and program of the Communist International, but must be taken seriously because it is intended to create the panic at- mosphere necessary to-secure the pro- hibition of the Co;nmunist Party de- manded by Hitler yesterday in his secret conference with the Junker president, Hindenburg. Winter Relief Drive for Families of the Class-War Prisoners 'HIVERS of cold, cries of hunger, puny bodies—this is what grow- ing numbers of working class fami- lies see as we enter the fourth winter of the capitalist crisis. Workers who protest are failed through such means as “criminal syndicalism” laws, “sedition” acts, and open frame-ups. ‘The International Labor Defense, backed by its mass membership, defends these prisoners but its tasks go beyond that. The families of these prisoners must be shel- tered, the children need milk, bread; in order to go to school they must have shoes; to live through the winter they need heat» In connection with the Prison- ers’ Winter ‘Relief campaign of the I.LD., short sketches of the lives of some of these prisoners of which there are thousands, and of their families, will be published during the next few days. These articles will show you why you will want to help. Send all contributions to LLD., Room 430, 80 East 11th St., New York, N. Y. To Fight Eviction of Negro Worker BALTIMORE, Md.—For ten years steady, John Williams of 869 Ostend Street, had paid his rent of $15 each month. The money he paid out in rent is more than the cost of the house in which he lives. Now, be- cause he has lost his job, the land- lord has secured from the “Peoples” Court an order for his eviction.

If you work steady there there for a few months you become a physical wreck. First your feet give way, then your health breaks down because of the food you consume there, and last you become affected in the brain; you begin dreaming of pigs head and corned beef and cab- bage both day and night. Why? Because of the terrific strain you are working under. If you get in 6 hours of work as waiter, you run out 400 and more checks. That means you wait on about 75 people an hour. As a waiter you have no busboys to clear your tables, so perhaps you can picture why a man comes out of those places half dead after 6 hours work without a minute's rest in be- tween for even the most necessary needs of a human being. And for this “slight effort” to make a living for himself and family, we are handsomely rewarded with 15¢ for an hour's work. Several places hire young students and break them in for this work, giving them $15 or $20 per month with room. A ‘good order cook gets $15 a week for 13 houts work per day. Now our bosses of course, are losing money yeah), and for that reason are cut- ting our wages. One of the bosses made a remark | last summer that he would have us working for 10¢ an hour this winter. Well it’s comng. Cooks and waiters have accetped a cut from 30c and 25c¢ an hour to 15c. You think it will stop there? Guess again. It is time for us to get together and organize and fight for our very lives —Seotty.

In commenting on the report, | Colby M. Chester, president of the corporation, said: “Price reductions and shrunken buying power of the public, have reduced the dollar value of sales, but costs and expenses have been undergoing material reductions jin all departments.” For you, food workers, wage-cuts to the bone, longer hours, more speed-up and more terror but millions in profits for your bosses. ‘. What should the ‘food workers do about it? Workers in the large food factories, who are readers and cor- respondents to the Daily Wor'ser, should start the organizaton of shop groups in these factories. They can prepare leaflets on the basis of the facts told in-this article. The leaf- let should point out the huge profits of the corporation and also have concrete facts about the cgnditions of the workers. 5 They should get in touch with the local Trade Union Unity Council, which will help them in their or- ganizational work. They can write to the Daily Worker for advice or information as to the nearest council. The shop group should connect their grievances with the Hunger March to Washington. Food workers should take it upon themselves to start a movement for organizing a | sent by Chiang Kai-Shek to reinforce | the Nanking sector were also crush- ingly defeated.

Cut Wages in the Seamen Hash-House NEW YORK CITY.—On May 15, I got a job as chef cook at the Sea- men’s Restaurant near the Institute. I got this job through an employ- ment office, at a wage of $21, work- ing from 5 a. m. to 2.30 p. m. The boss promised me if business goes good he would raise me. He did raise me to $23. In five months he got so prosperous that he could open another restau- rant. But now he cuts me $5—down to $18. I refused to take it. The son-of-a-gun got rich on my labor and promised me sweet things. So I quit the job, and he is holding out the $5 on me anyway.—GUS C.

On the 28th they gave us a notice that from the 15th of September our wages was cut, When the last cut took place, the help from the kitchen got together and served notice that we don’t take no more cuts and next day they tired one cook and scared the workers that they -would get another one in their place.

You will have to pay $10 for the strike tax.” “But the union is not having a strike at present, so why pay a tax?” This time the agent got mad. “Hey! Who is running this union?” (This union is run by the Politicians). “Are you one of those Reds?” Seeing that I put a fight, he starts to talk in'a sweet “pie in the sky” voice: “But brother, you can make the $10 back. The union is giving a benefit show, so here is four tickets for $10.” “But how I pay now? T have to pay for three months rent.” This time the agent went over to the boss, talked to him, and came back with a smile, “You, brother, will take 2 tickets for $5, and your boss will take 2 tickets. He (the boss) will lay out the money for both.” Yes, splendid cooperation between the boss and the union. Forward to a rank and file revolutionary union, JACK.
