International Notes ATTACK ON COMMUNIST PARTY PLANNED, PRAGUE (By Mail) —After having prohibited numerous working class mass organizations the Czechoslova- kian ‘bourgeoisie is now apparently to try conclusions directly with the Communist Party. The Public Pro- secutor demands that the Czechoslo~ vakian parliament withdraw the im- munity of the Communist deputy Ha- ken in order to permit his arrest and trial on a charge of high treason and conspiracy against the republic. Ac- cording to the authorities these crimes have been committed by deputy Haken, “in that he, as a member of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Czechoslov- akia, did proclaim the theses and de- cisions of the Second Congress of the Communist International in Moscow in 1920, that he did appeal to all the members of the Communist Party to carry out these theses and decisions, and did give the district and other organizations of the Communist Party instructions to this effect.” It is clear that this is a test case aimed at securing a judgement on the basis of which the authorities ‘can prohibit the Communist Party, if not at once, then at any convenient moment later. This impression is heightened by the fact that the au- | thorities admit that they have no evidence against Comrade Haken in | \ particular and that he has been| chosen because his membership of the Central Committee lays him open to the suspicion of high treason. The authorities quote in particular the famous 21 conditions for admission to the Communist International. The central organ of the Czechoslovakian Communist Party, “Rude Pravo” points out that these conditions are binding on all Communists and that df the Public Prosecutor has his way membership of the second strongest party in the country will be high treason in itself. ag Mees POPE GREETS POLICE THUG VATICAN CITY.—Pope Pius XI stopped long enough in framing up} anti-Soviet lies and thinking of new) attacks and slanders against the work- ing class to welcome New York's police commissioner, Mulrooney.

A storm of protest against this action by the Federal and Dis- trict of Columbia authorities will break over the heads of the officials who try to adopt such mesaures, The National Hunger March will go on, Marchers Sweep Onward. ‘The National Hunger March is roceeding according to schedule, yundreds of delegates being involved hy this time.

Chemists in Anti-War Appeal to World Scientists By N. BUCHWALD MOSCOW, Nov. 28 (By Cable).— Soviet light industry producing goods for mass consumption made much progress during the first niné months of 1932. This means a greater abund- ance of clothing and household ar- ticles for the masses. In comparison with last year, the Production of cotton goods rose 15.5 Per cent, silk 19.7 per cent, knit- goods 25.9 per cent, soap 35 per cent. Yet production in these lines fell 13 per cent below the Five- Year Plan. In a leading editorial today, “Iz- yestia” strongly urges the fulfillment |of the plan in the last quarter of 1932, thereby increasing the quantity of goods for mass consumption and improving quality. “Izvestia” points ‘out that light industry is assured a normal supply of raw material dur- ing the last quarter as well as bet- ter working and living conditions for the workers in light industry, includ- ing further increases in wages, im- | proved food supply: “Production plan in the fourth quarter must and can be fulfilled and overfulfilled by light industry.” The recent decree directed against loafers, drifters, and wilful absentees from work already shows good re- sults. Everywhere the workers are supporting the measure, and the num- ber of wilful absentees has decreased tremendously. ~ Improve Living, Working Conditions Emphasizing the necessity of fur- ther improvement in the living and working conditions of the technical cadres, “Izvestia” calls upon engin- eers and technicians for the immedi- ate overcoming of the still prevailing shortcomings in concrete technical | direction, for raising of the organiz- ing role of the engineers and tech- nicians, for improving the quality of technical leadership, and at the same time stressing the necessity for link- ing up technical leadership with basic Political principles, by studying and applying the teachings of Marx, En- gels, Lenin and Stalin. Appeal of Socialists On the occasion of the recent Fif- teenth Anniversary celebration of the November Revolution, the Soviet Aca- demy of Science issued an appeal to the scientists and technicians of the whole world urging the unity of science with the revolutionary prole- tariat for defense of the U.S.S.R., and for struggle against reaction in the capitalist countries, by joining the Tanks of the fighters for Socialism. The appeals contains the following high spots: “We, scientists and technicians of the U.S.S.R. follow with the great- est alarm this decline and degener- action (of the cultural forces in the capitalist countries, . . .

Some | Negro families of this neighborhood went to get some, too. When they came there they were refused. They asked for the empty crates for kind- |ling wood and they were refused this, You can see how the ruling class is \trying to make the white workers prejudiced against the Negro workers, but, fellow workers, we must not let the bosses fool us. We must, black jand white, unite and fight! Chicago Worker, Forced Labor in Corry, Pennsylvania |_ CORRY, Pa.—A few days ago the Relief Committee announced that forced labor would be demanded of the unemployed before any relief would be forthcoming. They demand that the unemployed men work at {such work as they choose to give. In return they will give them relief in the form of groceries as they choose. At present, they limit such labor to one day per week. But there is no law to prevent them from compelling the unemployed to work every day in the week for such commodities as they choose to give them. Thus adopting the system of the southern planters, | who compel the Negroes to work for “furnish.” Most of the unemployed are opposed | to this system of forced labor. They |prefer to have wages for their work and spend the money earned as they please. There is great need of an unemployed council here to protect the rights of the workers, and we will try to get one started. ‘Wages, in such local shops as are running, average about 30 cents per hour. And nearly all the workers are on part time schedules. The shops are allnon-union. There is a crying need for unions to protect them. The men know this, but lack organizing ex- perience, employers always ready to fire militant workers, and _stool- pigeons always shooping around, it is difficult for them to Scene « . AS. | ‘New Council in Claremont, N. He CLAREMONT, N. H. — We have | started the Unemployed Council here, and it is going over big. We were a little late, but we will have two de- legates from here. Our local conditions here are bad. The poor get bags for a family of 5 or 6, and it only lasts until Friday, then they have to starve the rest of the week. It comes. to about 31 cent per meal. One woman told her flour was musty, another her rice had been wet. Still another says her oat meal had rat manure in it. Another, who lost her husband, has five children and has only canned milk for her babies. We will make them (our town ; | fathers) sit up and take notice before | | long. You will hear from Claremont often. Oh! we got knocked off by the | | police once. Then had another visit | | from another, but we keep on. With | the help of a comrade who is here | we will have a large council here, I think we can sell the Daily Worker here soon. KHAKI SHIRTS IN. BONUS MARCH Jersey Group Joins the United Front (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) Washington, the treacherous Legion chiefs today openly shelved the whole bonus question. This is in direct violation of the resolution they were forced to pass at the Portland con- vention of the Legion under extraor- dinary pressure of the rank and file, calling for immediate payment of adjusted compensation certificates (bonus). Declaring that the bonus “can wait a while,” Legion headquarters today announced that they were concen- trating on a campaign to extend the disability allowance: now; the Join with veterans’ WORKER CORRESPONDENCE | or not?

They have been living at ‘this addres for six years, paying ‘their rent, that was when things wos supposed to have been good, but along with the crisis Baker was not ahle to pay full rent. He had to Pol puy what he could. His landlord by the name of John Sheridan came to this worker just before the election: and asked for more rent; Baker then went about the pointing out to Sheridan that his childreh were hungry, he had given him as much as he had. ‘Then Sheridan began to sympath~ ize with his tenant. Also good, then came the time for the Signature Drive of the Party. Baker went to Sheridan and asked for his signature this he freely gaye, along with 25 cent to help carry on the work, Then he began to explain to Baker about the Soviet Union, he told Baker how he was kicked off the streets of Russia at the time of the Czar, and also how how his father was smuggling Rev. literature to Russia and other places, but at the last of his conver- | sation he stated that the party would neyer get on the ballot in Tlinois, and he went as far as to tell Baker not to worry about the rent, to pay what he cauld. Finally Comrade Baker got behind in his electric bill and also the gas, the results was that the gas and lights were cut off, Baker then went to the Unemployed Council and they got busy and turned them both on. Sheridan did not like this so well | and he called a stool who runs a grocery store next door. ‘This stool name is Allen, Address 3726 Indiana Avenue, who never has over five loaves of bread at one time in the Page Three SEEK WAR COVER | WITH PACIFISM France Willing to Sign | USSR Pact (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) | tions of French imperialism (in the | Gorgulov case, etc.) and of their} Japanese imperialist allies in Man- churia.

M. J. Advice from a New York Worker NEW YORK, — I met a neatly- dressed old timer at 12th and 8th Ave., carrying a handbag. He put down his bag, rubbed his hands to- gether, and inquired the way to New Rochelle. I tried to give him direc- tion by subway and train. “No, no, T'm walking. Been walking from Bal- timore since fourteen days ago. Got a couple of dollars left but I've got to save them.” He wouldn’t ask any- one for carfare. Said he had friends and relatives in New Rochelle, and thinks he can manage. We hope so old-timer, but if you don’t make out you'll have the opportunity to fight for relief right now. You can join the National Hunger March going in the opposite direction you came from —on to Washington. t » Ke throughout the country can win im- mediate payment of the bonus with- out cuts in disability allowances.
