On the way here he had heard workers swearing at the Communists, believ- ing all the lying newspapers wrote, belicving that only thieves and rogues had fought in the Koslinerstrasse and in Neukolln. He had feared that all might think the same. Now he saw} that it was the old tactics of the 8. P.

Their first recommendation is that all girls be subjected to one year’s compulsory housework so they can get ace customed to taking care of a family. The Nazi idea is that women should raise families to increase the Naz forces—a pretended _ long-distance policy that will never be catried out because the Nazi murder regime can't last that long.

It is already known that the long- shoremen face another wage-cut. “The Tammany courts are tryng to deny these jailed seamen the right of public trial.
