Vol X, No. 177 a NEW YORK, TUESDAY, JULY 25, 1933 CITY EDITION Answer Balbo’s Sneer ‘ALO BALBO, the Italian fascist who brought his air fleet to America in a spectacular war display, has sent word to Mussolini that he found no anti-Fascist sentiment in America. He also reported that President Roosevelt has expressed to him his high regard for the bloody Premier of Italy. ‘The fact is that the precautions of the American government to guard Balbo against the spontaneous expression of the hatred of the American masses were among the most elaborate ever prepared for any “‘dintinguished visitor.” : ‘We must not allow the spectacular character of the Fascist flyers’ feat to cover up the barbarism, decay, and ruthless oppression of Fascism on which it is built. 'The extraordinary welcome which the American government and ruling class have extended to Balbo has a double motive. It is an attempt to popularize Fascist ideas among the American masses, and it is used to blind the masses to the ruthless terror and barbarism which is the sign of Fascism wherever it appears. ect eee ‘\ASCISM is a stage setting for war. ; E Fascism is the resort of the bourgeoisie when, in its crisis, it can no longer rule in the old way, can no Jonger mask its dictatorship under democratic forms. R Balbo reports to his blood-stained chief, Mussolini, that he saw no signs of anti-Fascism in America. Let the Workers’ demonstration against war on August Ist be a tremendous answer of the American working class to Balbo’s sneer. ‘All out on August Ist, against Fascism and against war! Mass Agitation Against War anti-war issue of the Daily Worker, to appear on Saturday, will be bar of the most important single issues published during the entire year. It will contain the Manifesto of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the United States on the struggle against imperialist war and the defense of the Soviet, Union, as well as the numerous articles on the international situation which have previously been announced in Oe agaenlig as it will, three days before August fiirst, it will enable all workers and readers of the “Daily” to see clearly the international sit- uation pregnant with war which makes necessary such great mobilizations as August first. We will be able, with the aid of this issue, to convince fellow-workers of the life-and-death importance of determined fight es’ war. pica who understands the role of the Daily Worker, will im- mediately realize the importance of gaining as wide a circulation as possible for the Anti-War issue. Orders for extra copies should be placed at once, and these copies should be used to rally new sections of workers to the August first demonstrations and—more important—to consistent struggle against imperialist war. Decaying at the Head new type of slashing is being developed by capitalism in the present A crisis. Wages have been slashed, living standards cut, employment scraped to the bone. Unemployment relief spells slow starvation. Now there will be a slash in educational expenses. Chicago has begun with a $5,000,000 reduction for schools. Tammany governor Lehman, quick to realize the taxes that can be saved for the rich parasites, orders a “study” to economize in education. No depravity is too low for capitalism when it comes to safeguarding profits in a crisis. : : ‘The Dutch imperialists, experts in their own line, have a slogan: “Keep their heads empty and their bellies full.” The “new deal’ improves on it by saying: “Keep their heads and bellies empty.” ‘ ; The decay of capitalism is seen not only in its destruction of the basic productive forces, in the impoverishment of the entire working class, but it is now reaching its head. Its proud educational system is decaying. ‘With @ larger industrial reserve army than capitalism can ever utilize, it is perverting its educational system in a new fashion. By throwing the child workers out of the factories without providing food or educa- tion for them, by throwing the children out of the schools, the capital- ists are creating a mass of young workers who have no opportunity to work, and who are then driven into forced labor camps or become the material for cannon fodder for the imperialist wars. Out of this youth, the capitalists also seek to recruit their fascist shock troops. . seriousness of this situation can be seen immediately when a few facts are remembered. Out of the 120,000,000 population, each year 2,000,000 youth have become of age when, as children of the workers, they must enter production in order to make a living: But since there are no jobs, they have been shut out of this means of selling their labor power. In the four years of crisis around 8,000,000 working youth have suffered this fate. It is true Roosevelt has driven 250,000 of them into the forced labor camps. But twice as many are roaming the country, trying to find food or shelter. Now thousands will be driven out of the schools. Capitalism is trying to press the working youth to the level of a declassed mass, driven to reforestation camps or a prey to militarist and fascist bands. They will try to separate these youth from the strug- gle of the workers for unemployment insurance, attempting to use them as strikebreakers,.and tots of the bosses’ attack. We must fight against this now, by rallying them in the struggle for immediate relief, for a struggle against child labor, for a re-opening of the schools with adequate provisions for the children and the youth, for unemployment insurance for the working youth who were never able to get jobs because of the crisis of capitalism. The Six Page ‘Daily’ decision to enlarge the Daily Worker to six pages daily and eight pages Saturday, beginning August 14, is already known to our readers. It is necessary that workers understand fully the reasons for this step. We have arrived at the point where four pages are no longer adequate im dealing with the rapidly-increasing working class struggles, both na- tionally and internationally. As a matter of fact, four pages have never peen enough. They were the indispensable minimum. Let us illustrate: Without the capitalist press of this country, Roose- ‘velt would not be in a position to spread the false promises and illusions of the “New Deal.” If it were not for the boss press, the poison of his demagogy would not reach the-great masses of this country. . . . . must counteract this barrage of hypocrisy, this insidious attack on the working class that goes on behind the velvety phrases and pro- mises of the “New Deal.” To do this, as well as to meet the attacks on workers which increase.in number and in violence every day as the work- ing class organizes in ever greater numbers for mass struggles, we must have @ more powerful Daly Worker. The six pages daily and eight pages Saturday will help us to answer effectively the “New Deal,” and the Na- tionel Industrial “Recovery” Act with all its trimmings of starvation and slavery codes. It must be our answer to the growing needs of our own class. Every reader of the Daily Worker should understand this, and every reader can immediately become an active campaigner for the six-page “Daily.” The increase in size will be accompanied by a parallel rise in- expenses, Which can only be met by a greater circulation. ‘The Daily Worker must be carried into new territories, into the fac- tories. It must be spread in all strikes, in unemployed struggles, in every industrial center and farming region of America. It.{s the duty of every Daily Worker réader to determine right now that the six-page Daily Worker is coming to stay. This will be possible only if every reader works wholeheartedly to gain the greater circulation needed to tte lige insure War Preparations Revealed; Aug. Ist Plans Are Speeded Chicago, Dayton and Milwaukee Prepare for Demonstrations _ NEW YORK, July 24.—Further reports of the broad na- tion-wide plans to make August Ist the biggest anti-war day of struggle, came in today, while reports of war preparations in many parts of the country showed further the imminence of the war danger. Word came from Chicago that — Agel tr water's eof | STRIKE AGAINST SWEATSHOP RULE cago district. In Chicago, there will be three demonstrations. Over 100,000 leaf- lets are being distributed in Chica- go, and scores of factory-gate meet- ings are being held in preparation for August 1. The Chicago demonstrations will be at Union Park, Randolph and Ogden Sts, 6 p.m.; Washington Park, 5lst and St. Lawrence Sts., 6 p.m.; and in front of the Western Electric Plant in Cicero, at 22d St. and 47th Ct., at 5:15 p.m. In Dayton, Ohio, the demonstra- tion will begin at 5 p.m. at Library Park. Many organizations, including the International Labor Defense, the Socialist Party, the Dayton Federa- tion of Churches, the Communist Party, Knights of Columbus, Friends of the Soviet Union, Y.M.C.A., Y.W. C.A., and many other organizations will take part. | Socialist Workers Join Struggle | In Milwaukee, August 1, the anti- | war demonstration will be held at Red Arrow Park at 5 p.m. Workers will march there from various parts of the city. Demonstrations have also been arranged for in West Alis, Racine, Kenosha, Madison, and sev- eral other cities in Wisconsin. The plans for the Milwaukee | meeting were made at a united front conference in the John Reed Club headquarters, at which delegates of | 24 organizations were present. A committee of 30 was elected as an arrangements committee. The delegates of the Workers’ Committee on Unemployment, a So- cialist organization, came with in- structions to disrupt the united front by walking out if the question of defense of the Soviet Union, or anything but a general resolution against war, was brought up. The eight delegates, however, declared their willingness to make a real struggle against war by accepting all the proposals in the resolution which was adopted, and taking jobs on the committees. War Preparations Speeded At the same time news was re- ceived from Washington that a huge extension costing $4,500,000 to $5,- 000,000 was being built to the ni- trate and high explosive, plant of the Allied Chemical Co. at Hopewell, Va. Financed by a loan under the In- dustrial Recovery Act, the Watervliet Arsenal at Albany, N. Y., is begin- | ning the manufacture of 42 five-| |inch guns and other armaments | which will keep 300 men busy for | two years. These are anti-aircraft! naval guns. Seven thousand New York state | militiamen have gone to four camps in the state for an intensive course | for infantrymen, field artillery, tank corps and coast guard men. The troops of the 113th Infantry of the New Jersey state militia, have begun their annual training in war maneuvers, the use of bayonets, tear Sas, and hand grenades, at Sea Girt, N. J. The State Assembly of Wisconsin has passed a bil making military | training compulsory in the Univer- sity of Wisconsin.. This state has long had a tradition of being much less militaristic than other states. The Remington Rifle and Cart- ridge Co, at Ilion, N. Y¥., has just hired 200 toolmakers. This is one of the country’s large manufacturers of ammunitions, Political Patronage, Graft, Takes Large Share of Relief Funds NEW YORK.—-Graft and use of relief funds for political patronage has reached such proportions thet the grand jury will at today’s meeting take up this matter. This so-called investigation will not uncover all the facts, as it is itself part of the cor- rupt capitalist apparatus. What can be expected from the “investigation” was already shown when a request to Judge Morris Koenig, brother of New York’s republican boss, for addi- tional aid was denied. Republican and democratic politicians’ close work was seen in the republican endorse- ment to Mayor O'Brien's increase in sales tax. Complaints show that “political workers” removed from city jobs in the so-called “economy program” were only shifted to fat jobs on relief pay, while the miserably low wages of unemployed on work relief jobs have again been cut 10 per cent, Tammany contractors were given contracts for use of tractors end other machinery at high rates when ‘hey were not needed. j had no idea who stabbed him. INN.J. WAR PLANT RED BANK, N. J., July 2%4— Workers engaged in uni- forms for the victims of Roose- velt’s forced labor camps, employed by the Sigmund Eisner concern, have gone on strike here against sweatshop conditions and starva- tion wages. The sieve pen has been working full time and the speed-up is ter- riic, yet the average worker 16 getting between $5 and $9 weekly. It is reported that a “union rep- resentative” is taking affidavits as to wages paid and announces that he intends to wire General Hugh Johnson, administrator of the In- dustrial Recovery (slavery) Act. This is seen as the first step in a move by the bufeaucracy to be- tray the strike by telling the work- ers to rely upon the hunger, strike- breaking and war government in- stead of relying upon their own numbers and the support of the other \-orkers, PALUMBO. FREED; LL. D. DFENSE BALKS FRAME-UP Case Against Anti-| Fascist is Thrown Out of Court NEW YORK. — The frame-up against Michael Palumbo, anti-fas- cist worker charged with felonious assault in connection with the mur- der by Art Smith's Philadaphia Khaki Shirts of Anthony Fierro, anti- fascist student, in Long Island City, July 14, was thrown out of court yes- terday morning as a result of the mass campaign of the International Labor Defense in his behalf. Athos Terzani, another anti- fascist. worker, is still held without bond on a framed charge of murder. Police and the district attorney have refused to reveal the name of the real murderer, one of the Philadelphia fascists whom they had under arrest and then released, the ILD’ has charged. A writ of mandamus to compel them to give the name ia being asked by the ILD as part of a broad campaign; and legal steps are under way to bring about Herzani’s release. In court yesterday morning, Harry Fruscio, a Philadelphia member of the fascist organization, whom Pa- lumbo was accused of stabbing, was forced to admit, in spite of coaxing by Magistrate August Dryer, that he Such an admission had already been obtained from Fruseio by the ILD, and widely publicized. Palumbo was held in jail a week, at first under $10,000 bond, without any accusation against him, rt Disappointed by this tum in the| case, Magistrate Dryer leaned over his desk at the hearing to coax Frus- clo to identify Palumbo as “having talked to you,” or “anything at all.” But Fruscio was unable to do so. At another time when the ILD attorney, Joseph Tauber, who defend- ed Palumbo in Court, demanded to know why the anti-fascist worker was under arrest for ten days without a Shred of evidence against him, the magistrate simply laughed and mum- bled something about justice.

TRY GAG BURLAK AT WOOL HEARING Bares Nature of Slave Code; 2 Workers leard WASHINGTON, D. C., July 24— Ann Burlak, secretary of the Na- tional. Textile Union, appeared he- fore the hearings on the code for the woolen industry in Washington, today and proposed the demands formulated by, the workers them- selves. Whitehouse, deputy adminis- trator, carrying out the policy of the administration to prevent any pres- entation of facts about the condi- tions of the workers, constantly in- terrupted Burlak. When Burlak ex- posed the nature of the woolen code | proposed by the bosses and showed | that its low minimum scale of $13 | for the North and $12 for the South | would establish a starvation stan- dard for the workers, Whitehouse threatened to stop her. | “I will not permit these argu- | ments,” Whitehouse stated “several times as Burlak persisted in her statement. McMahon and Gorman, officials of the United Textile Workers Union were accorded time to report and no such action was taken to stop them in recognition of their support in putting over the code. + Two workers from the Lawrence mills, Harzenian and Gosselin. told of the vicious speed up and low wages in the Lawrence thills.

But movie ‘producers have thus far re- fused to negotiate on the demands tof’ the sound men. 300 NEGRO, WHITE NEW YORK. — Three hundred Negro. and white workers of the George Carlzzo Co., Sixth St., Brook- lyn, refuse salvagers from ash and garbage scows, went on strike yes- terday for an increase in wages and against long hours. Fifty per cent of the workers are Negro, the rest | Italian. Wages at present are $6 to $9 a/ week and 12 to 17 hours a day. The workers, called scow trimmers | and pickers,"must dig through tons of ashes and refuse on the city scows. At a meeting last night at 32 Withers St. in Brooklyn, plans were made to bring out the 100 workers still on the job. ST. LOUIS SHOE WORKERS STRIKE ST.

Bill Is Answer to Roosevelt's Fake Promises of 6,000,000 Jobs and Failure to Provide Work WASHINGTON, July 24. — Late tonight Roosevelt will | speak on a nation-wide radio hookup trying to explain away the need for unemployment insurance by a promise of 6,000,000 jobs. This first speech in a hysterical campaign under the industrial recovery act, will be in the form of an address to *the bosses asking them to |make a personal agreement ‘up until a code is finally settled. PERKINS IN MOVE: 10 STOP STRIK OF CLOAKMAKERS Aids ILGW Officials in Piece Work Betrayal WASHINGTON, D. C., July 24. — Secretary of Labor Frances Perkins entered the cloak and suit situation today in a»move to whitewash the officials of the International Ladies Garment Workers Union and help them prevent the proposed strike for week work. Follovring the announce- ment today that no agreement was reached between the officials of the , Union and the Recovery administra- | tion and the employers on the piece work question, France Perkins sent | a wire to Dubinsky, president of the ILGW urging that the strike be held “y believe strike action is premature. May I earnestly urge that you delay | taking a vote until you. know the provisions of the code which I un- derstand will be fteady shortly,” reads the wire from Miss Perkins. The Perkins wire will merely fa- cilitate the betrayal of the -cloak makers by the officials. The Perkins’ telegram will be the excuse to call off the cloakmakers’ strike. The Perkins request that Du- binsky wait until the code is ready reveals even mere clearly the brazen scheme of the government, the bosses and the officials to sell-out the cloak makers to piece work since the cade has already been signed to by the union officials. ¥ Strikes of Dye House Workers in Boston Demand Wage Raises BOSTON, Mass., July 24.—The ke of the North Shore Dye Hou. workers in Revere threaten: spread to otner firms here the employers meet the dema the, workers for wage increa: the Dorchester Dye House the ers are demanding that union work- work- ers recently dismissed for their ac- tivities be reinstated or a strike will be called.

The Arlington Dye House workers re on strike and preparations for strike are being made by the work- ers of the Eagle Dye House.

Youth Ki By PASCUAL NEW YORK.—“They take a fine healthy boy and kill him,” exclaimed | Joe Yancovitch, brother of Abraham Yancovitch, the 18-year-old recruit murdered July 13 in a Yellows! Park camp. . According to a letter received from an eye-witness to the murder, Abra- ham never had a chance to defend himself, but was knocked to the ground by Sergeant Gerole Santriana. The Park Commissioner reported the death to the aged father living with four children at 1382 Boston, Road, Bronx, saying it was caused by a fist fight.

He remained co lled unconscious 10 hours arid then died. The eye-witness’ letter, according to the brother, clearly states there wasn’t any fighting; he was simply “knocked down.” “He must have been hit over the head with a club,” Joe said bitterly, “I don’t know how it could have happened otherwise.” In this same letter, written to a family friend, the recruit stated: “Don't tell mama, but I'm fighting forest fires and digging ditches.” Abe enlisted in the Civilian Con- servation Corps because he was wor-| ried about not contributing his share into the family budget. The $25 a month, he figured, would help keep the family alive. He had arived in the camp only two weeks ago. “But if I had known my .brother was going to fight: fires and dig ditches I never would have let him go. They said they were going to build ‘em up; make the boys strong.) Hell'uva way to build a boy up, fight-| ing fires.” The murdered worker was a home) boy, never having left the city before. | How much responsibility he felt for the family is shown when he had a one day’s leave of absence from the conditioning camp, He worked that one day on a boat, made $2 and. con- tributed that toward the rent. One of the brothers, Harry, went up} to the city desk of the “New York Times” last Thursday afternoon to have them print the boy’s murder and to get their aid in exposing the whole matter. The Times flatly re- fused to print the story and gave the answer: “It isn’t important in Camp Was Hit Over Head enough.” Joe is a reader of the “Daily Worker” and when it was proposed that the International Labor Defense take over the entire case and fight for a thorough investigation of the murder, he answered “it would be a darn good idea.” The family is not as much interested in suing the gov- ernment for murdering the boy as it is in exposing the whole rotten sys- tem of lies by which young, healthy boys from poor families were sent out to camps, forced to go through the rottenest treatment and then as a final upshot are killed. The International Labor Defense, located at 799 Broadway, has wired the camp for a complete investiga- tion of the circumstances causing the boy’s death, | with the president accepting a voluntary code of minimum | wages, as low as 30 cents an | hour and maximum hours of 35—with | plenty of exceptions. | ‘The extreme war propaganda tactics | are made necessary by the failure of | Roosevelt's previous job promises to pan out. The summer is soon over, and industries are slowing down, with | the prospect of a greater unemployed |army this winter than last—and | Roosevelt's fervent appeal to the | bosses is to make them take up the | cudgels against unemployment insur- ance. He will urge them to extend the stagger plan—without increasing their total payroll, but to spread the work and wages among the employed }and unemployed so that they won't have the greater expenses of paying for unemployment insurance. Starving millions of unemployed will have the opportunity of listening in while Roosevelt shadow boxes with the employers. What the workers will not hear over the radio is a repetition of Roosevelt's election promise of un- employment insurance. Roosevelt's voice and the thunder of propaganda that will follow will not drown out the hunger of the un- employed nor the crying need for unemployment insurance. Against the shrieking newspaper | advertisements and four minute speakers, the challenging demands of the unemployed workers, expressed in the Workers’ Unemployment Insur- ance Bill will ring out.
