) Beginning in Monday’s ‘Daily’: The Life of Robert Minor By Philip Sterling Dail ‘(Section of the Communist International) Vol. X, No. 217 re, Wntered as second-class matter at the Post Office at New York, N. Y., under the Act of March 8, 1879, Support the Cuban Toilers E order of the day for all workers and workers’ organizations, in the face of the mailed fist of Wall Street at the head of the revolutionary Cuban masses, is action, action, ACTION. At this moment the armed might of American imperialism is bear- ing down on and striving to crush the Cuban people, who are fighting . for national freedom and the right to live. The Communist Party urges a flood of telegrams, @ wave of mass meetings everywhere. This must be the answer of American workers to American intervention. The fight of the Cuban masses is a fight for national independence, a fight for the right to organize, for the right to strike, for the right to force the agents of Yankee imperialism to take their feet from the neck of the Cuban toilers. It is a fight against the Wall Street banks and their “New Deal” government, a fight against those forces which are the chief oppressors of the American working class. The fight of the American working class in solidarity with the Cuban masses is therefore a fight against their own oppressors, and a fight against war. Call mass meetings everywhere. At every meeting of workers, students, intellectuals, raise the question of the sharpest possible protest, raise the demand for “Hands Off Cuba!” Demand the immediate withdrawal of all waters. Demand the cancellation of all the crushing debts of Cuba to the Wall Street banks. Demand the evacuation of the Guantanamo naval base. Demand the nullification of the robber Platt amendment. What It Means ‘HE new tax proposals submitted yesterday by Samuel Untermeyer, leading light of the Tammany Board of strategy, show that the city government is grimly getting down to its proper business—the business ef oppressing the poorest sections of the population im order to safe- guard the profits of the rich. In July, the faithful capitalist servants who constitute the city Tam- many machine, promised .their masters of the Rockefeller-Morgan clique of Wall Street banks that they would grind out of the people at least $30,000,000 in new taxes before December 11. And they are prepafing to nake good that promise. The latest tax program is only the opening wedge in the arive of the capitalist city government against the workers. The huge loans due on December 11, the enormous piling up of interest payments on the $200,000,000 short term loan, all make further wage cuts, more drastic slashes in relief, new heavier taxes, and increased subway fares a certainty. warships from Cuban IT is after the elections that the city government, no matter whether it is fusion or Tammany, will Jaunch its main assault against the work- ers. The Untermeyer tax program is a characteristic Tammany pre-elec- tion moye. It is designed to give assurances to the bankers that their profits and loans will be amply protected. At the same time it is cleverly arrenged to give the effect of attacking the rich as well as‘the poor. The enormous increase in water rates—50 per cent—falls with crush- ing ferce on the poorest workers, for whom the inevitable increases in rent will bring increased suffering. It is significant that the supposed taxes against the rich are for only six months. But even this mild attack‘they need not fear. For it is an open secret that, for the most part, they are either unenforceable or easily evaded. Untermeyer said yesterday in an unguarded moment: “Under the present bill, there can be no effective tax on stock sales that could be enforced.” ‘That tells the whole story about the latest Tammany “attack on the mil- lionaires”. * * * ‘HE new tax program and the statement of Untermeyer that accom- panied it are the opening guns in the coming election campaign. They draw the issue quite sharply. Either the lowest masses of the people—the jobless workers—the workers struggling along on starvation wages, the civil service employees, the small home owner—shall bear the burdens of the capitalist crisis, in new taxes and wage cuts, or the rich, the bankers, the employers, the upper crust of the city official machinery shall bear it! In the coming campaign, the Communist Party alone demands that the rich shall be heavily taxed, that the Wall Street bankers be cut off from the rich stream of gold that flows to them from the city coffers, that the fat and corrupt city officialdom be swept aside. For a Militant Policy ‘HE EXECUTIVE COUNCIL OF THE AMERICAN FEDERATION OF LABOR is directing its whole attention towards making next month's convention a mobilization point for NIRA. No wonder the convention will take plece in Washington where the labor lieutenants of American capitalism can get direct orders from their chief. ‘ On the very top of the agenda a place of honor is to be given to NIRA, New ways are to be formed to harness the workers to a program which is slashing wages to the bone and is threatening the right of workers to organize into militant unions to fight for their needs. . . . . THE) soft coal miners, 70,000 strong have had their taste of the A. F. of L. policv of serving as an adjunct of the big corporations. The Cleve- land street carmen even more recently learned from bitter experiences that the A. F. of L. leaders sabotage a strike for higher wages, although 3,000 favored thé strike, because it hinders the “progress of the NRA.” The opposition groups in the American Federation of Labor, as well as every progressive member in every locai union is faced with the task of lining up the widest support of the membership against this treach- erous program of the officials. The opposition group must gain the con- fidence of the members by exposing the betrayals perpetrated by the misleaders. These groups must follow a militant policy of their own. They should also show from the experiences of the revolutionary unions of the Trade Union Unity League that only an organization founded on a militant program will make it possible to defeat the bosses’ hunger pro- gram and gain victories.

NEW YORK, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 1933 (E ight Pages) Price 3 Cents Paterson Silk Strikers. Move to TieUpDyelndustry ‘It’s for Our Bread and Butter,’ Strikers Cry By CARL REEVE PATERSON, N. J., Sept. 8. — The silk and dye plants of Paterson, the heart of the general national silk strike, were closed down tighter than a drum today as the mass picket lines of the National Textile Work- ers Union called another thousand dye workers on strike, swelling the total striking under the leadership of the NTWU in Paterson to approxi- mately six thousand, One thousand \dye strikers in trucks and cars are |now moving on the Lodi mill of the United Piece Dye Works near Pas- saic, seven miles away, where 5,000 workers are momentarily expected to join the strike. The strike call has already been issued to the Lodi work- ers by the NTWU and in spite of the firing of more than fifty union |members at Lodi, preparations are proceeding inside the mill. | “Its for our bread and butter,” jeried the dye strikers as they moved | down River Street, 700 strong in one |of the half dozen masspicket lines which is covering every dye house in Paterson.” If you don’t strike now you won't be able to buy bread.” “Close Up Ranks” is the slogan of the picket lines, “Everybody out on strike.” This picket line turns off to the right, gathering workers as it goes, and reaches the Commercial mill. A half dozen police circle the plant on motorcycles. The strikers pound onthe windows of the dye (CONTINUED ON PAGE TWO) City Sets Action on Increased Water Rates for Monday R. Minor, Communist Candidate, Will Lead Protest Delegation NEW YORK, Sept. 8.—Balked in its attempt to jam through the new Un- termeyer plan of City taxes, the Board of Estimate adjourned its meeting today until Monday 10:30 when it plans to take action on the tax program, Robert Minor, Communist Candi- date for Mayor in the coming elec- tions, will head a delegation of work- ers Monday morning to protest at the hearings on the new taxes, the proposed taxes, intended to raise $40,000,000 of new taxes, promised to the Rockefeller-Morgan banks, before any opposition could be organized. But opposition mounted rapidly. In addition, the present program is divided into a permanent and tem~ porary section. The permanent taxes are those that fall on the poor. The taxes supposedly against the rich are for six months. A fifty per cent in- crease in water rates is proposed. This will cost the poorest section of the population over $12,000,000 in inevi- tably increased rents, be handed down to the small con- sumers. More Wage Cuts Seen schedules contained definite indica- tion that the City government soon | intends to launch a series of drastic| wage cuts among the lower-salaried civil service employees, as well as fur- ther slashes in relief. Untermeyer declared that in addition to taxes the City will seek “new sources of rev- enue.” Robert Minor, Communist candi- date for Mayor, denounced the Un- termeyer program as “an obvious at- tempt to soak the poor to protect the bankers under the guise of taxing the rich.” He pointed out, in addition, that the proposed utility taxes are already being used by the big utility monopolies as an excuse for increas- ing rates, as well as serving them with arguments against the recently ordered rate Riva im ‘The City had hoped to rush through | The proposed utility taxes will that we would need special financial debts, and make it possible for us papers don’t do it?” The answer is simple.

Meetings, But Also Social Affairs HELPER, Utah, Sept. 8—Virtual martial law was ordered in Carbon | County when two U. S. Army gen- erals here issued an order forbidding all meetings of more than three people. The order not only strikes at meetings, but forbids dances and even religious services to be held. The gunmen here have been authorized to help enforce the order of martial law. A terrific clash appeared inevitable with the regular army from Fort Douglas expected. Despiie sharp protest from city officials, army of- ficers have ordered that Helper dep- utize a large force to enforce the martial law order. Threats have been made to remove local officials failing to carry out these orders. The miners are preparing to defy the orders regarding mass meetings and will defend their meetings against attack and to fight the direct armed intervention of the U. S. gov- ernment into the situation. Work- ers’ organizations must immediately mobilize mass protest against this at- tempt to drown the miners’ struggle in a blood bath, PARTY MEMBERS ATTENTION In connection with the basic campaign of the Party today, all Party members are instructed by the District Svcretariat to report to their Section Headquarters this Saturday, after 3 p.m., for special work. All comrades are urged to respond to this call, and show their Bolshevik calibre in the spir- it of the Open Letter. U.S. Army Rules in Heart of Strike Area in Utah Bread Dries Rising Rapidly in Cities, US.

On top of this, the begin- ning of profiteering is noticed. “In the consumers over $1,000,000 a year in extra charges,” Dr, Howe said.

NEW YORK.—Fifteen shoe wats facturers, represented by Milton Eis- enberg, their attorney, toauy uppied for an injunction against the Shoe and Leather Workers Industrial Union, declaring that this union should be prohibited from organizing the workers in their shops on the ground that it is a Communist Union.
