The conference also went on record de- manding cash pay and union rates to be paid by the cities and the State jon all relief jobs, or on jobs provided through the Citizens’ Committees. Majority Unemployed | The decision of the conference was | made after quite a discussion in which many delegates took part on | the existing conditions among the | painters. The discussion brought out | that at least 65 per cent of the paint- ers in the State are today unemploy- | ed. Many of the employed are work- ing only one or two days a week. The conditions among the unemployed! | painters are terrible. Up till now, the union as such has taken no steps to | develop a struggle for relief for the jobless members. However, among the | rank and file the realization is grow-| ing that something has to be done to relieve the suffering of the thou- work. The decision made by the confer-| painters, on Sunday, June 18th, is now going to the State Conference Board, and from there, it will be sent to all loeals of the union in the State, for a referendum vote. It is up to the membership now to see that it is taken up everywhere throughout the state and discussed in each local. Around this program, actions should be developed which will result in forcing the cities and the state relief bureaus to employ workers on all relief jobs at union pay, and that this pay should come in cash. SCHLEY, A Painter. Joins Ohio March CINCINNATI, Ohio, June 21. Column number 5 of the Ohio Relief March got under way Monday fol- lowing a send-off by 500 workers as- sembled at 12th and Central Avenue. Sixty marchers were in line and 15 were added from Steele Subdivision where another group of workers were assembled to greet and send off their representatives. The column stopped in Hamilton where they were welcomed by 1000 workers and fifty additional march- ers joined the ranks and where the mass pressure of the workers has “No one in the United States is starving”. This statement was often repeated by Roosevelt and Hoover during the election campaign. Govern- ment statistics do not record death by starvation. ‘There is no space in the heavy volumes of government records to record each time a life is snuffed out because someone had nothing to eat. But occasionally, there trickles through some facts that bring out the wanton destruction of the lives of jobless workers because they lacked the minimum sustainance to keep body together.

STOP WAGE CUT ON R. F.C. JOB MEMPHIS, Tenn., June 20.—Fol- lowing a strike of R.F.C. workers, récently ended, the wage scale of $1.25 a day was restored. The scale had been cut to $1 a day. The $1.25 scale is to be maintained not only in Memphis, but also in! Nashville, Chattanooga and Knox- ville. In the rural areas, the wage- scale on R.F.C. projects will be $1 a@ day, under pressure from the wealthy farmers and plantation own- ers, who object to the charity-pay be-| ing higher than the starvation wage they pay their farm-workers. The Fearless Fight of the Communists in the South By N. ROSS, a. HOSEY and J. MALLORY The article by Jim Mallory, en- titled rors of Party in South on Negro Question,” which appeared in the Daily Worker on May 31, was received by with a great deal of inter- Southern white and Negro who discussed and criticized the article in an interested and seri- ous way. At the same time, the ar- ticle was the object of a vicious and in the New York Age,! Dar owned by Fred . action: Negro Repub- liean Politician. (This was exposed in the Maily Worker on June 10.— Editor, D. W.) The mzin mistake in Mallory’s ar- ticle was the fallure to state that y in the South rrled into fe the uncompr mising Communist line on the Ne- gro question, for absolute equality and for the right of self-determina- fion for the Black Be Having pr he question this way at the outs it should then have been stated that in carrying out this fun- damental correct line, a number of saricus and impermissible polit- | ical mistakes were made around the Negro question. And, finally, that these mistakes have been and are being corrected, by the Southern Party leadership, in some important eases with the energetic aid of the Central Committee. Serious Criticism. The mistakes were stated by Com- rade Mallory in the boldest fashion, in order to facilitate the speediest correction of these opportunist er- rors on the Negro question. Every honest person knows that people who are convinced of the absolute; correctness of their fundamental aims are not afraid of checking up on and exposing publicly any mis- takes they make in the process of carrying otf these aims, Serious criticism and correction are thus the only guarantee that the final aim will be realized, The progress of the Communist Porty in the South, particularly among the Negro masses, has upset the white ruling class and their white and Negro henchmen. The New York Age deliberately distorts the article of Jim Mallory and the Communist position on the Negro question. It dares to imply that blurring over the Negro question and discrimination are established Prac- ‘Previous Article Failed to State That Party Leadership in South Has Carried into Life the Communist Line on Negro Question’ tices of the Party in the South. This the tertible weakness of the Party., Judson Simpson, is how many supporters of the lynch | system, who are furiously opposed to the whole Communist struggle for Negro equality, speak. They try to: magnify, exaggerate, distort and even lie about the mistakes of the Communist Party. To these sup- porters of the capitalist system. the expulsion of white chauvinists from) | the fo! t Party is a sign 1 of) JAIL 8 NEGRORS IN BIRMINGHAM Betraved by Minister ; One Br utally Beaten ‘| BIRMINGHAM, Ala—Zioht Neero | workers, arrested in a brutal police raid on the Cottageville section of this city, are being held without bail |for “investigation.” They are Lewis | | Bailey, Ernest Hutchins, Lewis Wil- | |liams, Will Smith, J. 8. Mayweather, | David Edwin, Avery Beavers and| William Pope. Bailey was severely beaten by the | police thugs. The police were called on to make the raid and artests by Reverend Milton Seares of the Bethel Church, who had bétrayéd Randolph Carter, | worker in one of the forced - labor | camps, to the police. | The Rev. Seares had called Carter |to his home on the pretext of help- | ing him. When Carter arrived, how- | ever, Eeares called the nolice, and} had him arrested. Carter was sen- tenced to the chain gang for a year, | on the charge of leading a revolt of the camp workers against the guards | last Wednesday. When workers came to Seare's| jchurch Sunday night. demanding the | floor to protest this betrayal, Seares sent his daughter out to call the po- lice. Another messenger was sent for his shotgun, which he pointed at the congregation, threatening to shoot, and driving them from the church. When the police. arrived, Seares | complained to them and instructed them to raid the homes of the Negro ‘workers, arresting eight and terror- izing the entire Negro neighborhood, Yet every honest worker, both white and Negro, knows that: this is a sign of the strength of the Party and its determined stand on this question. By its lying attack on Jim Mallory’s article, the New York Age exposes itself more openly as an enemy of} the Negroes of Harlem, who will not} be misled by. such unscrupulous methods. The tremendous Increase in sup- port for the Communist Party by ilarge masses of Negroes throughout | the South has been won precisely because the Party hes stood firm in the very heart of the lynch-law re- action as the fearless fighter for ab-| solute equal rights for Negroes. A | few bricf examples will suffiee to bring out this point: The Fight of the Jobless. On Nov. 7, of last year, 5,000 white and Negro workers demonstrated at the Birmingham courthouse for ‘equal unemployment relief and other immediate demands. ‘At the same time a comniittee of white and Neée- |sro workers presented the workers’ demands to the City Commission. | President Jones tried to sidetrack the | | unemployed issue and asked the head of the delegation, Mrs. Mary Leon- ‘ard, a Southern white Communist, it ‘she believed in social equality. When she answered emphatically in the affirmative, she was ordered never to return to the office. It was such courageous action at the very mo- ment when the South was receiving) the news of the reversal of the Scottsboro death verdict by the U. 8. | Supreme Court, that frightened the Jim-Crow money-bags and led them to send the police to attack the dem- onstration and arrest and jail two white workers, Alice Burke and Wirt Taylor. Everybody knows about the strug- glés of the Negro sharé-croppers in Alabama. The croppers have the deepest affection for their union and its Communist leadership. When white organizers came into the field, and their car broke down, Negro croppers walked 15 miles between midnight and 5 a.m. to get another jcar to carry their white comrades safely out of the danger zone. Un- der the influence of the Communist Party, @ poor white farmer safely hid “ Negro cropper, iffs’ posses after the Reeiiown strug- gle. In Birmingham, at the funeral jof the Negro croppers, James and Bentley, white workers, violated po- lice Jim-Crow orders and mingled with the Negro workers in honoring their two heroic martyrs of the struggle for emancipation. And to- day the union is pledged te win 2,500 new members in a two months’ period. 2 | On May 1, President Jones told the workers’ committee that he would allow méetings in large halls if Negroes met separately from the whites. The Communist Party re- jected this and under the mobiliza- tion of all police forces, Jane Speed, a young Southern white girl, spoke, | Was arrested, was heroically defended by Negro workers from the police at- tack, and refused to accept release on bond or payment of her fine while the Negro worker who defended hér remained in jail.

The jailers are doing all in their power to make Burke's stay in prison as difficult as possible. They have in thé jail that she has written — letters to. the Scottsboro boys, and have warned the prisoners not to: speak to her, spread lies among the other women | Nt f vate he was hunted by the sher- catur, Southern white workers risked their lives getting information as to the activities of the lynch mobs, constantly keeping in touch with the Communist Party so that it could render militant protection to the Scottsboro boys in case of an attack. On the eve of the Decatur trial, thousands of workers attended a Scottsboro mass meeting in Birming- ham, white and Negro mingling freely, thus showing their determina- tion to carry on the fight for the freedom of the boys. At the same time, the Communist Party in Bir- mingham answered the violent threats of the K.K.K. against the Negroes, forcing this organization of man-hunters to retreat, even to the point of coming out with a lying leaflet that they are really the “friends” of the Negroes. These are a few examples out of hundreds of similar incidents in Richmond, Norfolk, Charlotte. At- Janta and throughout the South. Created New Situation. The bold and dynamte program of the Communist Party has created a really new situation in the South. The Negro people are looking up, talking up and are in a fighting mood for equal rights. Thereq is more interést, more discussion and more action around thé Negro ques- tion among the masses in the South today than at any time since the re- co! mn 'days. For a while cer- tain Comrades in the South began to think that wé could not win the white workers, because of our sharp fight on the Négro question. This is why it was so necessary to bring out in the opén the mistakes which were mentioned in Jim Mallory’s ar- ticle. The fact is that just because of our hetole and correct fight for} full equality, we are paving thé road for bringing the white toilers into greater joint action with the Negro masses against thé ruling class. Mr. Moore of the New York “Age”, and the whole flock of Negro misleaders, are playing 4 losing gamé. The cards of history are stacked against them. Step by step the Communist Party is marching forward in the South. It is carrying on its uncompromising Policy on the Negro question which will ‘inite more and more white and toilers in the revolutionary it for for the Black Belt ‘and to the final \ypinio de Dat ers’ and farmers’ government in the Bd Sa i | pen a Ba MANY STARVE TO DEATH IN NEW YORK ‘32 Died of | Hunger During 1932 in N.

Hospitals, ls, Reported MANY CHILDREN Heavy Reduction in Food Consumption Better Times, published by the Wel- | fare Council of New York City gives | the following picture of starvation in | New York: “Thirty-two men and women died of hunger in the world’s richest city during 1932. “Eighty-one other persons were brought to the city hospitals during 1982 in the conditions doctors diag- nosed as starvation—this exclusive of persons who refused to eat, or who were unable to eat or to assimilate food and exclusive of cases of ‘inan- ition’ or ‘malnutrition,’ “Among the starving were children in their ‘teens, young mén and wom- in their twenties, and skilled as well as unskilled workers—all, of course, unemployed.” Hospital Records The “Granite Cutters Journal” irom which the above is taken also quotes the records of starvation cases and deaths as reported to New York Hospitals. The hospital figures which show an increase in 1932 from the previous year is only partial. It does not include many municipal hospitals, newspaper reports and numerous un- accounted deaths by starvation.

This camp is the initial step in starting forced labor camps for women, simi- lar to those now used for jobless men. The State Temporary Emer- geny Relief Administration expects te have 200 women in the camp in 2 short time. The sending of women to these camps was sponsored by Mrs. Roo- sevelt and Frances Perkins, secre- tary of Labor. In New York it has the support of the Women’s Trade Union League. Officials admit difficulty {in re- cruiting as there is a determined resistance to be placed on forced labor. They state, “Letters received | by the State Emergency Relief Ad- ministration indicate that many un- employed women have deferred ap- plying for admission to Camp Terra because they erroneously believed the camp was a part of the Federal reforestration program and they would be required to engage in re- forestration work similar to that of the Civilian Conéervation Corps.” STAGE AND SCREEN Soviet Talkie ‘Shame’ Coming, to Thalia Theatre On Saturday “Shamé,” the new Soviet talkie, will open this Saturday for a week's engagement at the Thalia Theatre, Broadway and 95th St. “Shame” il- lustrates the new trend in the Soviet film.
