The message opposes cancellation of the debts, and makes it plain that any reduction in the debts must be compensated for by trade and other concessions from the debtor countries. The sharpness of the struggle over the war debts together with the sharpen‘ng of the world crisis peal for “national solidarity” to save capitalism from “the forces which today threaten the very foundations” of what. Heover re- ferred to as civilization (read cap‘talism). WASHINGTON,” Dec. 19—In a speech broadcasted over the radio last night, Dr. Julius Klein, Assistant Secretary of Commerce, restated the demands of the Wall Street Govern- ment for trade and colony conces- sions from the European debtor countries in exchange for conces- sions on war debts revisions by the United States. He intimated that the U. S. Government might retreat from its present position of barring discussion of the war debts at the forthcoming international economic conference if assured in advance of trade and other concessions from its imperialist rivals. For Weakening Imperialist Rivalries At the same time he demanded the removal of “excessive tariff restric- tions, rigid quota systems, and ex- change-control measures” which ad- versely affect U.

This morning we waited in line for | several hours and when they bega1 to give out jobs the cops and the men doing the hiring pushed all of us who were in the lines away from the door and brought in a big bunch of new men. Here we find that the big head- lines in the papers about thousands of men getting jobs were big lies. The men who did the work were called out by name and I asked them who they were and they said that they were the 2-day-a-week regular city men, who were made to do this snow work instead of their other work. / Then the cops began to hit right and left.

Extension of Pay Cut BARRAGE OF DEMAGOGY |Answer With United Front Committees CHICAGO, Dec. 19. — The railway union leaders are re- treating here in the negoti-j ations with the representatives of the companies, having now abandoned even their criminal- ly futile proposal for the ex- | tension of the 10 per cent. “de- | duction” for another year, and ac- | cepting the company demand for a | six months continuation. The re- treat is being made under a bar- rage of militant sounding phrases about “social injustice”, the “rights of human beings” versus “property rights”, ete, put out for rank and | file consumption.

But in the face of the obvious de- termination of the railway companies and Wall Street banks and insurance companies to put over an additional | wage reduction and revision of werk- ing rules downward, the officials of | the 21 railway unions deliberately re- | frain from calling upon the member- ship to prepare for the only method of struggle that can and will defeat the railway owners—united _ strike | action. | Prefer “Legal” Wage Cuts. The only issue remaining to be | Settled formally in the conference | here is whether the union officials | will agree to the companies moving | for wage reductions under the Wat_| | son-Parker arbitration law during the | \six months extension of the 10 per | | cent cut. It is probable that no) agreement will’ be reached on pel point and, for the companies, this is not a vital question. | | to have everything “legal”. Blame Workers for Crisis. Further evidence of this intention | and confirmation of the statement made by the Daily Worker that a nation-wide campaign under Wall | Street offices is under way against the wages and working conditions of | the rail workers, was contained in a/ telegram received here yesterday by A. F. Whitney, chairman of the Rail- | way Labor Executives Association. | The telegram was sent by Kirk Fox, editor of “Successful Farming”, a paper published in Des Moines as a propaganda organ of the banks, mil- ling and railroad interests. Putting the blame for the continu- ation of the crisis upon the rail work- jers, the wire stated with character- istic demagogy that “farmers believe your wage policy constitutes one of the chief obstacles to economic re. covery, it being obvious that radical reductions in hourly rates of rail- road pay are essential to radical re- duction in freight rates.” Coolidge and Smith In Action. Such expressions are results of the campaign now carried on by the Na- | tional Transportation Committee, headed by Calvin Coolidge and Al- fred E. Smith, uniting the machin- ery of the Republican and Democrat Parties against the railway workers and completing arrangements to place the incoming Roosevelt admin- istration in the forefront of the Wall Street offensive against rail wages and working conditions. Calls for United Front Committees. | The Brotherhoods Unity Committee \is calling upon the rank and file | of the railway workers to elect united front committees consisting of mem- bers of all the unions as well as un. organized workers and build fighting organizations in all terminals and shops to resist the drive on their wages and working conditions. The Brotherhoods Unity Committee warns the rail workers that the policy of the union officials 1s one of sur- render and that by discouraging all preparations for strike action they are putting the workers at the mercy | of the companies and their Wall St. owners.
