SOCIALIST HEAD IN DETROIT OK'S ROOSEVELT DEAL ANN ARBOR, Mich.—‘“Just be- cause blood isn’t flowing in the streets, don’t think that we aren’t in the midst of a revolution. Call it socialistic or fascist, we have had a revolution, and a peaceful one.” This was the statement made by Neil Staebler, local Socialist Party leader, in a speech Friday, July 29th, before the University of Michigan So- cialist Club. Staebler spoke of Roosevelt as be- ing both a crafty politician and a progressive leader. “The handling Roosevelt has given to the recent banking situation,” he said; “while not closing the problem, should be recognized as an accomplishment.

TERRORIZE NEGRO R.F.C. WORKERS ASKING MORE PAY. 150 Whites, Sheriff Threaten Two Who Ask Equal Wages SELMA, Ala., August 2.—Because they went to the office of the R.F.C. | and demanded an end to discrimin- ation in pay against Negro workers, | C. J. Adams and P. L. Lindsay, two Negroes of this city, were called to the office of the’sheriff and terror- ized by the sheriff, deputies and a crowd of about 150 white men. The R.F.C, here pays white work- ers $1.50 a day and Negroes 75 cents a day, although both do the same work. Lindsay and Adams went to the R.F.C. office and complained at the difference in the rate of pay. When the R.F.C. officials refused to | make any change, the two men said they would write to R.F.C. headquar- | ters in Washington. ‘Two days later the sheriff sent for Lindsay and Adams, and conducted them into a room in the courthouse in which 150 white men were gather- ed. The sheriff then began grilling the two Negroes. “You have been accused of insulting a white woman in the R.F.C. office,” he said. “What have you got to say about it? Have you written that letter to Washing- ton yet? We won’t let you get out of here unless you promise to quit this stuff.” Lindsay and Adams refused to re- tract their action or to make any promises, and were finally released, DAY, AUGUST 3, 1933 Communists Nominate Minor for Mayor of New York City (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) needs. However, direct and militant mass pressure on the streets also must be used as part of the election campaign to compel immediate con- cessions in the matter of unemploy- ment relief and the stopping of evic- tions before election day.” The National Recovery (Slavery) Act, the statement declared, “is an effort to preserve the decaying sys- tem by means of slave codes, estab- lishing ‘minimum’ wages, which in fact tend to become maximum wages, a union-smashing program with the building of company unions, the wholesale lowering of real wages and standards of living with the aid of currency inflation—all at the cost of the working class.” Continuing, the District Committee statement declared: “The Tammany government of New York is but an agency of the ‘Wall Street bankers, who rule both the City of New York and the country at large. In every contro- versy about unemployment relief Tammany responds only to defend the treasuries of the rich. Guided solely by the principle of forcing the unemployed to endure as much suffering as they will quietly submit to, the City government gives a minimum of relief, not to prevent starvation, but only to dull the protest and paralyze action. Tax Rich, Is Demand “The wealthiest bankers and trust heads in the whole world live in New York, who could easily be made subject to taxation in sums of hundreds of millions per year on their incomes. But these wealthy men have entirely ceased paying income taxes. Rather than touch a dollar of their wealth, the city government, when driven by mass pressure for unemployment relief, resorts to the outrageous sales tax, which levies tribute on the food, clothing and other neces- sities of the working class, employed and unemployed. Under the rule of Tammany, thousands of teachers starve in unemployment while in the overcrowded schools children go hungry and unteught. “The Communist Party has already, through its spokesman, Robert Minor, presented to the city Board of Estimate a program showing the complete possibilities of raising ample funds to prevent starvation in New York, even on the basis of the present constitu- tional limitations devised to pro- tect the fortunes of the thy against the poor. In this eléction campaign the workers of New York will be roused and mobilized to compel by mass demonstration the raising of adequate funds by taxa- tion of the incomes of multi-mil- lionaires for unemployment relief. The proposal for a capital levy will be popularized. “Mass demonstrations on the streets and at the City Hall and Borough Halls and local marches after many threats had been made against them. and demonstrations against relief stations, to compel the granting of Tells ¢ of Labor Research Gives| Conditions of Steel Trust Wage Slaves Very shortly after John Meldon, | | secretary of the Steel and Metal | Workers Industrial Union offered to produce evidence at the steel | code hearing in Washington of a vast spy system in the mills against the werkers, the hearings were | quickly adjourned. In this way, | General Johnson sought to prevent | the facts of the conditions of the steel workers from being presented. In a series of articles, based on material prepared for the hearing by the Labor Research Association the Daily Worker will give the facts. The following is the first install- ment.—EDITOR. The U. S. Steel Corp. maintains its employ in order to prevént their joining any organization which might work for higher wages. The office of the head spy of the Carnegie Steel Co. Mr. Charles H. Tuttle, is located in the same build- ing as the other ma’n offices of that | company in Pittsburgh. Workers have been fired for organization and black listed thereafter over a period of years as a direct result of this spy system's operation. The other prin- cipal companies producing steel also employ spies with the purpose cf im- peding organization moves among their employes. Speed-Up Article 4, Section 3 of the Code presented by the employers exempts from the provisions on hours “those employed in emergency work,” and,! that the employers see fit to exempt. It sets up a maximum of 40 hours/ per week at an average over any six- | months period, and provides that even this “maximum” shall be en- forced only “insofar as practicable the work required shall be available in the respective localities where such work shall be required and having due regard for the varying demands of the consuming and processing in- dustries for the respective products.” This is obviously no limitation at all. The question of what would con- stitute an appropriate maximum of hours is discussed elsewhere. The union wishes to stress at this point first that those employed by tho S0- | very large and important section of | the working force and there 's no| reason why these workers should be | exempted from the maximum hour | provisions except in a very small min- | ority of cases.

Other so-called emer- gency work as for example in finish- ing mills is merely intended to finish up an order and is usually followed by a period of slack work and unem- ployment. The second point is that even if a maximum number of hours were en- forced it would not be acceptable to the union if this meant that the same amount of work was done in the shorter hours as in the longer. Work- ers testify that the speed of opera- tions is already too great in certain mills and on certain processes for the health and safety of the workers performing these processes. Among the methods of obtaining speed-up the following may be mentioned: More bullyragging on the part of the lecser bosses; introduction of some form of benus system; cutting piece rates; changing supervisor forerren into working foremen; rest periods; cutting down on num- ber of men without changing tech- nique, and speeding up machinery. The union proposes that the per- mission to work emergency men be- yond the maximum hours should be eliminating — granted only with the consent of the workers’ elected committees and that such extra hours should be averaged over a period in such a way that emergency workers shall. not exceed the maximum set for other workers. With regard to speed-up it is obvi- ous that the workers themselves are the best judges when speed-up is taking place to an injurious degree and their elected committees should have power to prevent such speed-up. Wages and Hours The code sets up a minimum week- ly wage of $10 a week on the basis of a 40-hour week. This is the nom- |inal wage. Actually from $1 to $2 should be deducted from this to al- low for the extra expenses of shift workers and men on hot work, who use up clothesswith exceptional rapid- ity and whose housekeeping expenses , are usually high under the shift sys- tem. The higher expense of pur- chasing at the company commissary which has been forced on many steel workers, especially during the last year, must also be taken into account. A wage of loss than $10 a week is a pauper wage, $10 Wage Is Cut By $1 To $2 for Hot Work Special Clothes The unlon contends that thére is |no valid reason for continuing the | Wage differentials as between the different districts, and urges the es- tablishment of a basic minimum for the whole country. The présent sys- tem of setting wages for the South at roughly 60 per cent of the wage level of the Middle West, constitutes an outrageous tion against Negro workers. The union stands for equal pay for equal work, and for no discrimination of any sort against arose in hiring, firing, or promo- ion. Actual earnings before the crisis for unskilled laborers probably amounted in the highest paid plants to less than $20 a week, unless one assumes the plant worked 7 days a week, when account is taken of “nor- mal unemployment.” (Statistics of the American Iron and Steel Insti- tute indicate that from 1923 to 1930— that is before the crisis—unemploy- ment must have amounted on the average to at least 25 per cent, includes unemployment due to part- time work, as well as total unem- ployment). From this figure would have to be deducted from $1 to for the reason stated above, Setting a maximum hours per week would mean little the steel workers unless a number of hours was union contends that ing overdeve it United States, and conditions of export, and taking into consideration also the relative con- traction of domestic markets, average production of more per cent of capacity is not to be ex- pected for Some years to come. The union demands guaranteed weekly earnings of $20, six-hour day and a 5-day week, hourly and tonnage rates to be raised in the same proportion as the in- crease in the common labor rate. Each worker should receive a guar- antee of 40 weeks work per year. If he receives less than this amount of work, the difference should be made up out of an unetmployment insur- ance fund the cost to be paid equally by the company and thé federal gov- ernmient. The code should embody provisions looking toward this end. A minimum yearly wage of $800 per worker is admittedly low. But it will appear still lower if prices rise faster than wages. Provision should be con- tained in the code for raising wa; automatically as the. cost of living Time and a half sh id fe all overtime, RUS BE ACD 2 immediate concessions before elec- tion, will be organized. Likewise all wage disputes, strikes and struggles of the workers against the suppres- sion of their rights by the city gov- ernment and police, will be directly taken up as issues of the election campaign. The permanent mobili- zation of workingclass communities to prevent evictions will be one of the major features of the election activities. Fight Jim-Crowism “An important feature of» the election campaign will be the mo- bilization of the laboring mas: of whatever race or color, an .a di- rect struggle to break down and destroy the “Jim Crow” system of segregation and discrimination against the Negro population. “Under the rule of Tammany Hall the forces of the criminal underworld are mobilized after the fashion of Mussolini and Hitler for violence against the working class in protection of class privileges and wealth. The development of fascism in America is shown by the cold- blooded murder of the worker Fierro in a public meeting in New York by an American fascist mur- der gang with the full protection of the New York police, while almost at the same moment the Tammany authorities paraded through the starving city to give a costly official reception to the Fas- cist gunman, Italo Balbo, whose hands drip with the blood of Ital~ ian workers. “Tammany’s license to steal is Tammany’s reward for strike- breaking. “The Republican Party, the other Party of Hoover, Morgan, Rocke- feller and Wall Street, is an agency of the same powerful capitalists who dictate every act of the Demo- cratic,Party. The working popula- tion of New York can gain nothing by establishing a Republican set of the servants of Wall Street in the place of Wall Street’s Democratic servants. The Socialist Party Role “The Socialist Party differs from the Democratic and Republican Parties chiefly in the fact that it tries to secure the support of the working class for the capitalist sys- tem. The Socialist Party, while making a plea for support of the laboring masses and misusing the name of Socialism, has exposed it- self as the third capitalist party. The Socialist Party leaders are organizers of strike-breaking, and supporters of the bankers against the demands of the unemployed. “The Socialist Party leaders, at the beginning of the economic crisis declared themselves against unem- ployed insurance (against “the dole”), and only now, when the masses of workers are fighting for it in increased numbers, pronounce themselves in favor of it in order to avoid losing their followers. But at the same time the Socialist Party leaders betray their follow- ers in the working class by striv- ing to prevent the unity of the workers in struggle for unemploy- ment relief — absolutely opposing and sabotaging all efforts to unite the various unemployed organiza- tions and to carry on a united struggle. “Eyen while claiming to stand for unemployment insurance, the Socialist Party, through its leader, Norman Thomas, made an open bid to the bankers of Wall Street to be allowed to share the government of the city of New York in a ‘fusion’ scheme with ‘independent’ Democrats and the Republican Party, which could only mean the implied promise to join in protect- ing the Wall Street bankers. against the demands of the unemployed masses and the workers whose wages are under attack.

Weissman “The Socialist Party appears in this election as a separate Party only because its offers of fusion have been rejected by the big bank- ers, who for a time, through their agents Wickersham and Marshall Field, played with the slogan “Feel Safe with Thomas.” “The Socialist Party fights neither for the immediate needs of the working class nor for Socialism. While using the word “Socialism,” it is the bitterest enemy of Social- ing class, The Communist Party is fighting against the Union of So- cialist Soviet Republics, “The Communist Party, Section of the Communist International, is the only, Party which fights for the immediate needs of the American working class and at the same time is the only Party which fights for Socialism, which is the only way out of capitalist ruin for the work- ing class.

P. in Broad Appeal “The Communist Party calls upon the entire working population of New York, wage workers in all industries and transportation, es- pecially members of trade unions and members of the Sociafist Party, all ‘white collar’ salaried men and women, all of the Negro popula- tion, to vote in this municipal elec- tion for their immediate interests and their own emancipation, to vote for the full” Communist Party ticket. ‘The Communist Party urges all Workers, especially members of trade unions, members of the un- employed organizations, etc., to go to the registration boards to regis. ter themselyes on the election lists -as Communist voters. “It is necessary to register in order to vote. “Second, it is necessary for all of these workers of whatever affil- jiation, to participate in the mass demonstrations before the election. Immediate concessions must be wrung from the unwilling hands of the corrupt city government now. “The campaign, in order to be of real service, in terms of bread and meat and milk, for the working- class families of New York, must be a campaign of mass solidarity, through working class unity in struggle, and must be manifested on Election Day, November 7, with a tremendous vote for the full Com- munist ticket.” Report US Commission To Be Formed To Make Trade Pact with USSR NEW YORK.—That a commission {is being formed in Washington to negotiate a trade agreement with the Soviet government is reported by the New. York Evening Post in its Wednesday’s edition. The opening of formal commercial relations, says the Post, is regarded as a wedge that will lead the way to full diplomatic recognition. Peter A. Bogdanov, chairman of the board of the Amtorg Trading Corporation, chief trade representa- tive of the Soviet Union in the United States, arrived in Washing- ton Wednesday to negotiate the trade relations pact.
