* Negro rights. EDITORIAL Defeat the Ten Cent Fare! No one familiar with the devious ways of Tammany politics should be fooled by the loud shouting of Mayor John P. O'Brien and the Tam- many Hall gang that they are opposed to the ten-cent fare proposals of Comptroller Charles W. Berry. | Berry, a Tammany politician and office-holder, in his budget report demands a ten-cent fare on subways, the East River bridges and on the municipal ferries. He shows by facts and figures that the Tammany administration, reeking with graft, has baykrupted the city in maintain- ing its army of salaried hangers-on, and in paying out enormous divi- dends to the bankers who hold claims on the earnings of the city transport system, His proposals are in complete accord with the demands of these bankers that their claims be met at the expense of the subway riders— the vast majority of whom are compelled to spend the last penny they have in order to exist at the low level imposed upon them by the hunger drive of the capitalist class in trying to maintain its own uninterrupted flow of profits. Many workers’ children are now unable to attend school Tegularly because their parents cannot pay fare. A higher fare will keep thousands out of school. On top of all the wage cuts and unemployment the toiling masses are to be further burdened with higher fares. Instead of buying bread, milk, meat, shoes and clothing, this money will go into the pockets of finance capitalists who hold bonds in the transport sys- tem of the city. O’Brien, the Tammany mayor, pretends to oppose the proposals of Berry, the Tammany comptroller, for a ten-cent fare. Finally Tammany will raise the fares and meet the demands of the bankers, The whole episode is one of the scurvy tricks of the Tammany-Wall Street gang to boost fares and at the same time to perpetuate the deception, thus far successfully carried out, that Tammany defends the low fares. This fare boost is accompanied by imposing tuition fees upon students in ‘city colleges, and by recommendations of the bankers for cuts in pay for the workers on the subways and other city lines. Against this conspiracy there should be mighty protests in the unions. im all workers’ organizations, in the schools and in neighborhoods to let the bankers and their Tammany henchmen know they cannot get away with this attack The Scatisbure March to Washington oe ‘THOUSAND Negro and white workers, professionals and students ‘demonstrated in Washington on Monday. They came from scores of cities and converged on the nation’s capital where they put forward de- mands for the release of the Scottsboro boys and for the enforcement of | the 13th, 14th and 15th amendments to the United States constitution. | In the fight for the release of the Scottsboro boys, the march focussed the attention of millions of Negro and white workers throughout the coun- try.on the fact that of the 13,000,000 Negroes in the United States, nearly 8,000,000 live in the Black Belt; that these Southern Negroes are denied the rights of citizenship and of social, political and economic equality— on the contrary, that they are held on the land by peonage, debt slavery, the chain gang system, contract labor, etc. Conditions prevailing in the ‘lack Belt are only slightly worse than those prevailing in the industrial | North. B* dramatically presenting the Bill of Civil Rights to the Roosevelt government and its spokesmen, the marchers through their elected committees served notice on them that a ceaseless struggle is now begin- ning for the rights of the.Negro people. Concretely, the demand was put forward for the enactment into law of the right of Negroes to be a can- didate for any public office, to vote in any election or referendum, to serve on juries, and to the full use of educational facilities without segrega- tion. It would forbid jim-crowism in trains, hospitals, hotels, restau- rants and places of public amusement, The Bill of Civil Rights would forbid residential jim-crow laws or ordinances as well as discrimination | in the matter of membership in fraternal organizations and trade unions. On the latter point the American Federation of Labor is the worst of- | fender. The rousing reception given the Scottsboro marchers by the Negro and white population of Washington—particularly in the Negro sections— is an indication of the spirit created throughout the country by the | demonstration in Washington. Elsewhere in this issue is an eye-witness description of the march, emphasizing particularly the inspiring scenes in the sqlialid sections of Washington—a stone’s throw from the im- posing Capitol dome, ‘RESIDENT Roosevelt bluntly refused to see the delegation elected by the marchers to present to him the Bill of Civil Rights and thousands of names signed to a petition for the release of the Scottsboro boys. Roosevelt's action shows him to be the chief violator of the elementary rights of the people (the right of petition) and at the same time the chief supporter of the southern bourbon rule in which the Democratic Party is so deeply intrenched. Both Rainey, Speaker of the House, and Vice-President Garner, hid behind formal technicalities in declining to act on the Bill of Civil Rights. All parliamentary bars were lifted when dictatorial powers were turned over to Roosevelt upon his inauguration—so that “emergency measures” could be taken in the interests of the banks and railroads of the coun- try. When, however, demands come from the most oppressed sections of the population, every legal deviee js dragged forth to justify inaction on the part of the politicians, As for the Negro congressman from Chicago, De Priest, we will take up his deceitful alibis in an early issue of the Daily Worker. The Negro reformists, who at: first pretended to support the Scotts- boro March under pressure of the masses roused to fury by the Decatur lynch verdict, later eased out of the campaign. Despite their treachery, however, the march was an achievement. Scottsboro March symbolized the struggle for the freedom of the nine innocent Negro boys, which is inseparable from the struggle for Returning to their home cities, the delegates who joined in the march would take the lead in consolidating organizationally the tremendous _ ventiment behind the movement for the freedom of the Scottsboro boys ynd the fight for Negro rights. _A Strike Against the = Milk Trust . “Workers in the cities should firmly repel the attempts being made by the political agents of Wall Street and its dairy trust to incite them against the farmers who are fighting for prices that will cover their cost of production. The statement of the Tammany health commissioner, Shirley W. Wynne, of New York City, that he would get milk from the West to break the milk strike of New York farmers, is not for the bene- ft-of the workers. It is an attempt to break the farmers’ strike, If Wynne were really concerned about the workers of New York City “he; as health commissioner, would take steps to see that undernourish- ed babies obtain the milk they require to enable them to live. The hypo- erisy of his present expressed concern about the workers and their families in New York is seen in his refusal to intervene, as a public health act, to stop the soaring of milk prices to prohibitive levels. The farmers can be paid three times as much as they now receive for their milk, and at the same time there can be a decrease in the price of milk to con- sumers. The only people who would not gain by such a move are the dairy trusts who exploit both the farmers by paying them low monopoly prices and charging consumers high monopoly prices, Facts refute every contention of Wynne and the Milk Control Board that uses the power of the state to maintain the monopoly of the milk trust. The dairy farmérs get Jess than two cents a quart for milk that ‘is sold to the New York consumer for nine and ten cents—the price for the cheapest grade, while better grades, for which the farmer receives no additional price, is much higher, Comparison with pre-war figures shows that the price received by the farmers in the New York area was 41 per cent below that level, while the price to consumers is 22 per cent above pre-war. This shows that prices to farmers could easily be brought to-pre-war, while retail milk prices could be reduced at least 22 per cent, ‘The Milk Control Board was set up in Albany by the Tammany state administration to try to head off the struggles of the dairy farmers, Its fifst act was to raise prices of milk to consumers, while refusing to raise the price of the farmers produce. ~The strike that is to go into effect Friday is a direct repudiation of that Board. It is not a strike against the city consumer as Wynne and the State Milk Control Board would have us believe. It is a move against the milk trust, the common enemy of the city consumer and the faymer Daily, < Central Vol. X, No. 112.

The New York City conference. for German relief, initiated by the Work- ers International Relief, to which all organizations are invited, to be held May 18 at 8 p. m. at Irving Plaza Hall, should be attended by delegates from all trade unions, fraternal and other workers organizations. By ROBERT MINOR. The Free Tom Mooney Congress just closed at Chicago aroused tre- mendous enthusiasm among consider- able masses of workers in Chicago as well as in sixty cities of 29 states and three foreign countries, from which (subject to verification in compar- ison with tabulated credentials) del- egates were elected to the Congress. There were 118 organizations of the American Federation of Labor repre- sented by 152 delegates, and 29 inde- pendent unions were represented by 54 delegates. Various organizations of the Trade Union Unity League, to the number of 77, were represented by 119 delegates. The Industrial Workers of the World were not rep- resented from the local organizations of that body, but by two delegates representing the national organiza- tion. The Communist Party had 43 delegates who represented 29 orga- nizations of the Party, the Prole- |tarian Party had 6 delegates repre- | senting 3 organizations, the Confer- ence for Progressive Labor Action had one delegate, and there were 5 dele- _ gates from 4 organizations of the So- ‘ cialist Party (many other members |of the 8S. P. represented other or- ganizations), although the National Executive Committee of the Socialist Party was not represented and fought furiously to prevent any of its units participating. The National Secretary of the Young People’s Socialist Lea- gue was a delegate to the Congress from the Chicago Y.P.S.L. There were 2 delegates representing a La- bor Party. In ition there were 14 delegates representing groups which appeared under the name of “Com- munist Party Opposition” (the Love- stoneites) and “Communist Party Left Opposition” (Trotzkists), both groups having no relation to the Communist Party except as enemies. There were 135 delegates repre- senting 86 unemployed organizations. Workers’ defense organizations to the number of 118 were represented by 203 delegates, while fraternal or- ganizations to the same number were represented by 158 delegates. There were 56 delegates representing 35 women’s organizations. Youth orga- nizations to the number of 39 were vepresented by 51 delegates. In ad- dition there were 33 cultural organi- zations with 42 delegates; 6 veterans’ organizations with 10 delegates, 3 | Mooney Congress Calls for Beginning of Great Mass Campaign delegate, two shop committees rep- resented by two delegates and 11 mi. by 13 delegates, To Organize Action.
