DAILY WORKER, NEW YORK, FRIDAY, JULY 21, 1933 Cotton Code Roosevelt OK’s Slash| in Pay Above $13 Code Minimum WASHINGTON, July 20.—President Roosevelt Thursday signed a wage-| cutting order for cotton textile work- | ers receiving above the $13 minimum | wage, opening the way for the bosses} to make the $13 minimum actually a! maximum wage throughout the in- dustry. In the original presidential state-) ment approving and amending the) textile code a provision was made for} the raising of wages of those workers receiving more than the $13 mini- mum. Soon after the code went into effect mill owners, managers, flocked to Washington by airplanc and train. | There were hundreds of long distance | telegrams and telephone calls to the White House, and without consulting even the labor advisory board, Roose- velt ordered the elimination of this clause. The textile bosses interpret this as the right to cut wages down to the $13 level. This power to suspend any provi- sion of the codes not suitable to the bosses, without a hearing, or without giving the workers a right to say a word, shows how they will be used in practice.

But ever since 1927 when he passed his civil service examination and received his ap- pointment he’s had a “miss’able tt making ends meet” and now he’s in the fight, “sticking one hundred per cent.” Was I familiar with the conditions they had to contend with? He had facts and statistics at his finger tips. Eighty-seven per cent of the substi- tutes are supporting three or more dependants on salaries ranging from $6 to $8. Clark himself was married, had two children aged respectively 2 and 5 years, and never drew over nine dollars a week. Just®a week ago he had been evicted and had a difficult time keeping his furniture from being seized, It is now in storage. He ran from charity to charity until through the Urban League he secured a single, kitchen- less room for himself and his fam- ily. “We're pretty near suffocating,” Clark said, “and my salary goes for rent. All those kids ever get to eat is the canned food the Urban League gives us. They haven't had any fresh vegetables so long, I can’t remember. A fellow can’t bear to look at them.
