At Workers FROM (CONTINUED employed nit ae Communist Nominees The Ss Plan for the election | mayor on a capitalist “non- an” ticket and the selection of andidate by petition is an insidi- empt to make representation rs in the City government sible. The choice of a candi- date under this plan would be agreed | upon by the City Club (bankers’ or- | ganization), the Rotary Clubs, the nis Clubs, the Lions Clubs, and of other civic organizations ated by big business and petty politicians. Under this program, the dictatorship of finance capital would | be complete. Tammany, of course, does not look with kindly eyes toward this dicta- torship. More than $550,000,000 is to be available during the next fiscal year for distribution among bribing contractors, district leaders, party | underlings and other faithfuls of the Tammany clan. Always loyal ser- |vants of Wall Street, the political | bosses demand what they believe to |be their traditional right—the un- restrained right to loot the govern- ment coffers of the millions extorted from the workers. The Seabury plan | has aroused the fury of Tammany. | Lehman Is Bankers’ Man | This bankers’ program is to go be- fore the Legislature for action. Tam- many is awaiting this moment. Tam- many is marshalling its forces, for it dominates the State Legislature. On their side, the bankers have as their commander Governor-elect | Herbert H. Lehman. Lehman is him- self a big banker and labor exploiter of many years’ standing and a re- spected figure in Wall Street. He is a director of the Studebaker Cor- poration, the Pierce Oil Corporation, General American Investors, Inc., Murray Corporation of America, Kel- sey- es Corporation, Interstate | Department Stores, Spear & Co., | Franklin Simons & Co. the Jewel | Tea Company, the Knott Hotels and | several other corporations—corpora- | tions which have cut wages, fired shington, gave Harburg a letter jon Jan. 4 to formulate plans for a | workers and brought on general mis- ke back to New York to the | | determined struggle to oust the rack- | | ery among the masses of the people. | Lehman also is a past master at |the art of playing “the peoplé’s friend,” of bamboozling the workers in the role of a “philanthropist.” Amid this clash of capitalist inter- ests, the republican legislators and | politicians who recognize party lines | only for the purpose of bargaining | for graft and patronage, are seeking | some vantage point so that they may be in a position to ask for political plums. The republican bankers, need- less to say, are working as one with | Young, Raskob, Baruch, etc. | Weuld Kick Workers Out of Jobs | Seabui proposal to consolidate various city departments, while strik- ing at the Tammany graft machine, is also designed to throw thousands of city workers out of jobs. This also is in line with the bankers’ program. While low-paid city workers are be- ;ing given wage-cuts and the unem- | ployed are refused relief, the salary jof the mayor, under Seabury’s plan, | would be reduced only $10,000, giving him $30,000, which is still $5,000 | more than what the mayor was get~ | ting until Jimmie Walker boosted his salary two years ago. The Commun- | ist Party and the Unemployed Coun- \cils demand that no city official get more than $3,500. The Seabury proposals will un- doubtedly be hailed by the Socialist Party, which tries thru its Ctty Af- fairs Committee to make the workers believe that the chief issue is graft, not bread, and that the elimination of a few crooked officials would solve everything. At the same time the Socialist Party, where it gets power, in Milwaukee, does not neglect to build up its own graft machine.

U. S. Bosses Direct Aid The preparing of this ship for war service by the Colombian Con- sulate proves that inside of this country, U. S.

Now, this ship which sails in the next few days.

Police Attacked Workers The demonstration at the Insti- tute was for the right of workers to get a change of clothing from their bags which were being held because they owed a few cents board. Spe- cial police attacking the workers were beaten up. The police charged Schouter with assault. The International Labor Defense, who is fighting the vicious open frame-up, pointed out today that the case involved the right of the work- ers to the streets. Franklin D. Roosevelt is honorary vice-president of the Seamen's Institute, while Ker- mit Roosevelt along with other big ship owners are the controlling body. That these big bosses are behind the frame-up was admitted in court by Judge Collins when in charging the jury he pointed out the political significance of crushing the seamen’s militancy. He also promised to free Schouter if the Marine Workers Un- ion would stay away from the Sea- men’s Institute. The district at- torney, while addressing the jury, tried to prejudice the latter by con- tinually toying with the iron bar.

Stage and Screen “MEN AND JOBS,” OPENING SUN- DAY AT THE CAMEO, PRESENTS NEW IDEA IN SOVIET FILMS A. Macharet, a newcomer among the Soviet motion picture directors, years in the creation of his first pic- ture, “Men and Jobs.” He traces his interest in dramatic art to a minor role he played in an amateur school theatrical at the age of: five. Since then, through years in a high school to please his parents, through .war, revolution and civil war, a longing for the theatre has been uppermost in Macharet’s mind. “Men and Jobs,” which opens Sun- day at the Cameo Theatre, dealing with the relations of an American engineer to the Russian workers un- der him, is said to embody a new approach both in sound and visual imagery. Upon its release in Mos- cow, “Men and Jobs” precipitated a violent conflict in Moscow art sircles. Macharet claims that the stylized | cinema technique so widely used in Soviet studios is fast becoming a cliche, particularly the photography of machines as self-sufficient images. He holds his work to be a fresh de- parture in film language, making men rather than things the core of 5 Shoe Workers Clubs in Conference, Friday NEW YORK.—Five shoe workers’ clubs have been organized within the last few months, with a combined membership of 250.
