DAILY WORKER, NEW YORK, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 10 1932 Page Three ——— Nat’l Committee of Jobless Cou ncils Call s to Build Block Co mmittees Scores Green Policy on The Cincinnati Convention of the A. F. of L. continued its Negro discrimination policy declared Wm. Z. Foster who has just issued an appeal to the affiliated organiza- tions of the Trade Union Unity League to support the Scottsboro Fund Drive. ‘AID SCOTTSBORO FUND DRIVE’ TUUL Called to Get Behind Campaign By WILLIAM Z. FOSTER. (National Secretary of the Trade ; Union Unity League). ASS pressure by the American working class and the workers of the entire world has brought about @ partial victory in the fight for the unconditional freedom of the nine Scottsboro boys by forcing the U. S. Supreme Court to grant a new trial. The members of the revolutionary trade unions and the revolutionary trade union oppositions in this and other countries make up a consider- able part of the weight of that mass pressure. T.U.U.L. in Fight, The Trade Union Unity League and the revolutionary unions, leagues and oppositions are in the fight for the Scottsboro boys with every ounce of energy. The Trade Union Unity WORKER IN SHOE PLANT Brooklyn. Boss Gets) Work Without Pay BROOKLYN, N. Y.—In the H. Ja- cob & Son shoe factory, at 762 Wythe Ave., Brooklyn, there is the worst ex- Pploitation of child labor. They employ scores of young chil- dren to paste labels on the shoe boxes on a piece-work basis, paying them 71-2 cents per 100. If the foreman is not entirely pleased with the kind of work these children do, he forces them to Correct it, not pay- ing them for the work. In addition, he imposes a fine of about $1, which is deducted from their week’s wages, usually averaging about $7. One girl, after working there two years, was able to earn $12 in one week. The bosses felt that was too much, so they cut the price. When the place has to be cleaned, the foreman decides to find fault with some of these child-workers, makes them stop the work, for which they are paid so little, and forces them to clean up the place, for which they receive no pay. ‘These workers have to report every morning at 7:45 whether there is work or not. They are noi vaid while wating for work, but the bocscs find plenty for them to do while waiting for labels, for which he pays them nothing. Some of these children com- plained once, and the boss told them they could get out, he didn’t care, since he could get plenty of others. Undoubtedly the Daily Worker, as the official organ of the Communist Party, will suggest what to do. L.

This column should be utilized to exchange experiences of the activities of these groups. The New York group meets every Monday evening. Various important news items in the Daily Worker are discussed. ‘The workers who have written correspondence for the Daily Worker read it aloud-to the group. The members of the group correct and suggest improvements in each piece of correspondence, and a real interest is in this way developed in| improving the quality of the corre- spondence. The members .are beginning to orientate away from the mere re- porting of casual incidents or con- ditions, to real worker correspond- ence, which steadily reports condi- tions in a particular shop, or a par- ticular Unemployed Branch or mass organization. Groups elsewhere should write us of their activities and their methods of carrying on their work. Remember the regular Monday meeting at 7:30 at 114 W. 21st St. Non-members welcome. Discontent Shown by Expressmen Must Form Groups to} Fight Layoffs NEW YORK.—One expressman in the American Railway Express was discussing with another one about the lay-off of 81 men that went into effect two weeks ago. There had been a lay-off of 150 workers a few weeks previous to the present one, and, be- sides these two, a general lay-off of 900 a few months ago. Besides these lay-offs, all the men have received a 10 per cent, wage-cut. This has been going on in spite of the fact that the men are members of an A. F, of L. union. One of the men said now that Roosevelt is elected conditions might improve, Another worker said that the ~six- Proposed at the A. F. of L. Conven- tion might also improve conditions. I pointed out to them that Roose- velt will be the same as Hoover was and that the A. F. of L. favored the six-hour day, five-day week because the workers are becoming militant and are beginning to see the treach- ery of the A. F. of L., also that the A.

S. today sent a new note to France demanding payment of ‘the war debt instalment due on Dec. 15 and rejecting the French demand for postponement. The note to France was dispatched soon after Poland had renewed its request for post- ponement of its $4,430,000 war debt instalment. o 2 8 WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.—The text of the latest U. 8. note to Britain on the war debt struggle was made pub- lic today. The note rejects the Brit- ish emphasis of the war debts as a major cause of the world crisis of capitalism, It admits “that the causes of this.depression lie in much | more potent forces than these debt transactions.” Echoes War Plots The note echoes the increasingly bitter rivalries betwee the imperiai- ists, and violént, “sohuion” «of the economic crisis by war. 1t stresses the demand of U.S. imperialism for concessions at the expense of its rivals in ex- change for any revision of the debis and no postponement of the Dec. loth payments. the Wall Street war mongers for “arms reduction” by their imperial- ist rivals. European dispatches report that Britain and France have united firm- er than ever on the demand for re- vision of the debts. British and French representatives held a secret the increased drive tor a} it restates the demand of.

Meanwhile 80,000 job- less seamen were hungry. | Delegate McCuiston charged that | the shipping board officials extorted money from seamen before they would | give jobs. Sandburg got quite excited and de- manded proof, which McCuiston is furnishing.

This is the policy of the class-collaborationist henchmen of the capitalists, ° AFL Leaders Continue Discrimination The Convention of the officialdom of the American Federation of Labor at Cincinnati has reaffirmed its en- mity to the Negro workers. A Negro servant of capitalism, A. Philip Ran- dolph of the Brotherhood of Sleep- ing Car Porters, introduced a milk and water resolution stating that “in accodance with the traditional policy of the A. F. of L.” that this organi- zation make a verbal stand against discrimination. The A. F. of L. offi- cialdom refused to pass even this wishy-washy resolution, but stated falsely that there is no discrimina- tion in the A. F. of L.’and that “the door is wdie open to Negro workers through the formation of unions af- filiated with A. F. of L.”—in short, jim-crow, discrimination unions for the Negro workers. ‘The boss class terror which in its \most hideous forms aims to lynch, legally or illegally, the nine Scotts- boro boys, has been felt by the mem- bership of the revolutionary unions and leagues in the struggles they have conducted against the attacks by the bosses and the bosses’ gov- ernment. Murder, deportations, frame-ups, kidnappings, brutal beat~ ings have been used against the mil- itant workers engaged in struggle against starvation. The revolutionary unions and leagues have found the International Labor Defense the leader of the de- fense fight for the lives of the nine that anyone could manufacture even | match boxes for such a price, I turned | to the chauffeur of the North Caro- | lina truck, who was a typical South- | erner, and inquired whether the workers employed were paid wages or | just worked for room and board. The answer was that the Negro) workers received 50 cents to $1 a day/ and were segregated from the whites, | who received 70 cents and $1.50 a day. “What's the extra 50 cents for?” I asked, and then, answering my own question, “I suppose so that the whites will hate the Negroes more effectively, is that it?” The chauf- feur just shrugged his shoulders. At this point a chauffeur who drove for a different firm asked the South- erner if they still used whips on the colored workers. “Sure,” answeted the Southerner. Well, there you are, comrades, here in free America, where you are sup- posed to be able to do as you please, work for whom you like, workers are whipped at their jobs. e This letter will substantiate the story “Georgia Nigger” appearing in the Daily Worker. The Communist Party is the only Party endeavoring to expose the slave conditions that still exist in the Southern part of the United States. There is but one conclusion to draw from the above statement, and that. conclusion is to support the Com- munist Party.
