The bourgeois press reports that a “prison revelt under leadership of Bx-Lieutenant Scheringer “has taken place in Bielefeld. The striking pris- oners afe said to have smashed up the furniture of their cells and smashed up various utensils. Great crowds gathered outside the prison | and demonstrated their sympathy with the prisoners, een crushed with difficulty by the warders without otitside assistance. ‘This is the report of the bourgeois press.

YORK CITY, — There are two ehildrén iti my family, one two and a half years, the other six months old, my husband and myself. We are Spanish workers, unemployed and we have found out what liberty and pa- triotism means in these ffee United States. Six months ago, when my baby was born, we were living in a four room apartment. A friend loaned us $80. ‘This went and still we have not found work. S06 we were evicted. Our furniture was on the street and stolen, My eldest boy was so statved he was biting my arms. ‘The Unemployed Council came to |help me and forced the Home Re- lief Bureau to give me a relief chéck. | We went into a furnishd room. Our landlord did not like to take Home Relief_ checks, so we were again evicted. Now the Home Relief says that they can do nothing for us. They terrorized my husband, telling him that if he worked with the Unem- ployed Council, he would be de- ported. Now, comrades, we are living in a cellar in @ émpty coal bin, ‘There is no electricity, gas, sunlight or heat. A comrade who is living in one fur- nished room with two adults and four children gives us @ little food. I khow that conditions for the poor all over Harlem are about the samé, We have no clothes, I have the grippe and my baby is sick, but I have Jearned my lesson and appeal to all you Spanish workers to: join the Unemployed Councils, We must white and fight against our enemies who | fool tis.

Drive All Away | Meanwhile the rest of the 150 had | reached the White House, and thou- |sands of Washington workers were on hand also. The police drove every- body away, pushing and punching the frail children with their clubs. Some of the children were chased all over Washington by police on foot and in cars. Some refused to move ab all from the White House, and finally the police were forced to pay their car fare back to the Workers Center. Another arrest was made: Theodore Richards. All the children finally assembled at the Workers Center, adopted a resolution denouncing the attack on them, demanding release of those arrested, and pledging their parents on the National Hunger March would take up their demands.

The Klan rides again!” have | appeared along the public highways and in the Negro sections of the cities. A fund is being raised in Ar- kansas to combat this menace. workers should collect canned goods, fruit, non-perishable food of all sorts for the marchers every day. Collect clothing and blankets, too. Get the loan of trucks. If you are an auto mechanic, volunteer .at the nearest unemployed council at once to help repair trucks and cars. : Not everybedy can go on the na- tional march.

Terror-Ridden Ga. to déport to the South an unem- ployed Negro worker, became evident | Thursday when Norman Smith, of 228 West 124th St., reported to the | Upper Harlem Unemployed Couneil, | that the Home Relief Buro had de- manded that he leave the city and go to terror-ridden Georgia. The brutal system of tortiite agaifist the Negro people in this state is now being ex- posed serially in the Daily Worker (see page 4). Norman Smith's wife, Mrs. Estelle Smith, died on November 16 of star- vation, &nd was buried after a mass funefal by thie Unemployed Council. At the funeral her husband was elected as a delegate in the National Hunger March to Washingion on December 5th. The workers of Harlem have fought to get some help for Comrade Smith, who has four children and. who has been out of work since early in 1929. This is the main reason why the charity organizations are anxious to get rid of this worker. Comrade Smith reported that! shortly after the funeral a worker the Harlem Hospital told him she had been at the funeral and had in hef possession a copy of the leaflet exposing the way in which Comrade Estelle had been starved to death. | ‘The social worker said: “If the Hoine | Relief Buro finds out about this there will be hell.” | On Wednesday a worker from the Home Rellef visited Comrade Smith and said that he ought to leave New York. He explained that he had only one relative, in Savanah, Georgia, who was in the same straits as he himself. The visitor saiq that “the Home Relief will pay your trans- pottation and get you out of here.” Matiy other Negro unemployed workers, notably in New Jersey and Connecticut, have received these “mild invitations” to go back South to starvation and lynching. The “in- vitaton” is invariably accompanied by the cutting off of relief. In one case, & jobless Negto worker in New Haven was kidnapped by the relef agencies and shipped South. The Unemployed Council will fight fot relief for Comrade Smith and his family, and against his deportation.
