+ DAILY WORKER, NEW YORK, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 1933 Page Three One billion dollars! Six hundred million trom the budget, and $380,000,000 from Public Works Fund— this is what Roosevelt has given the Army and Navy during the last few months! We must demand these enormous funds for the immediate relief of starving workers, and for Unemployment Insurance! The Fighting Vets By H. E. BRIGGS The Legion Convention I Point 2—“A permanent classifica- tion and fixed determination of bene- fits’—but how? The review boards | are controlled by “outstanding busi- ness and professional men.” General Hines thinks they are O. K. Well we don’t. Where are the rank and file on these boards? Why do Legion men predominate? Generals, bankers and such like have nothing in com- mon with us. We must give our other buddies a place on the boards too, and without discrimination for race, color, creed. or political affiliations. In another part of point 2 Johnson talks about “reducing to a minimum the discontent” He hints about giv- ing the veterans just enough to allay their discontent. This open admis- sion on the part of Johnson is enough to discredit the whole damn program. It definitely exposes the 10le of the whole Legion leadership who through lies, demagogy and false promises seek to hold the rank and file without do- ing anything for their benefit. No hint is made here of a restoration of cuts or immediate payment of the Bonus. Point 2 like point 1 means nothing to the rank and file unless they are represented on these review boards where they can have a hand in fixing and adjusting classifications. We must fight for rank and file rep- resentation or we won't get a lead nickel from the government. Point 3.—The only “adequate pro- visions” we can depend upon are im- mediate Cash Payment of the Bonus, Unemployment Insurance for all vet- erans and workers, in “periods of normal (and abnormal) . economic conditions.” This applies to vets with or without service-connected dis- abilities but Johnson is too yellow to ask for Unemployment Insurance. He may talk and rave about the 72 billion tax-exempt securities held by the Mellons, Fords, Morgans, banks and big business interests but his program does not mention how the veteran, unemployed and destitute can get his compensation, etc. or get ndequate provision against economic insecurity. To put it plainly starva- tion. He does not call for a taxation of these billionaires and their exempt securities. He is afraid to do this; besides it might cost him a few dol- lars too. Point 4—This is the same as point 3. A foggy, fruitless, misleading state- meni; wherein Johnson passes the buck about-local relief for “incapa- citated” and unemployed vets and workers to the Federal Government. He dcves not call for a struggle for relief. But we rank and file vets shall keep on demanding adequate local Relief for married ard single vet- erans and workers. And unemploy- mient insurance.

There are approximately 40 per cent un- employed, in spite of this being the season for model changes. The men work only about three or four months a year. The General Motors subsidiary, after stalling off the men for a few days rejected the demands of the strikers. After negotiating for five days, rejected: the demands of the agement led the union to believe that a raise was in prospect, they broke off negotiations suddenly. The company refused to accede anything, but promised to piace tool and die makers on production after comple- tion of dies, so that they may work all year around. This trick of the bosses was intended to create a divi- sion between the die makers and the men on production. Ninety per cent of the workers of these crafts in Flint and Detroit were to vote Saturday on joining the strike. (Results of the vote have! not been received by the time we went to press).

Starkweather, president of the local, told newspaper men that his organization “did not recognize the strike and would take no part in the strike.” In Washington, Senator Wagner began to move the NRA machinery in an effort to break the strike. Wagner Fears Rise in Strikes; Asks Workers to Submit WASHINGTON, Sept. 24.—Admit- ting that strikes were increasing, es- pecially against the results of the NRA for the workers, Senator Wag- ner on Saturday, at a special press ference, appealed to the workers not to strike, ‘but to submit their grievances to the NRA National La-| bor Board. Wagner has close per- sonal ties with the A. F. of L. leaders, Wagner was confronted especially with the Flint, Michigan, strike of die and tool makers, and the strike of 3,500 Westinghouse Electric Co. workers, In both cases, the workers were fighting against low wages of the NRA codes, and demanding higher wages. When the A. F. of L. officials failed to stop the strikes, Wagner stepped ‘in asking the workers to submit their grievances to the strikebreaking Labor Board In order to appear as “a friend of lebor,” Wagner said, “we have no 3,500.

Notice that since March of this year, the line of production per work- er has leaped up as if galvanized by electric shock, while the wages paid to the workers has lagged far, far behind. How was this done? It was done by the speed-up introduced under the NRA. In the textile industry, for ex- ample, every worker has to tend more spindles now than ever before. Faster work—more intensified work—that is how the bosses get more out of each worker under the Roosevelt codes, But this does not tell the whole story. Actually the workers have received —not a wage rise—but a wage cut during this time. For while wages advanced 7 to 10 per cent, food and clothing prices leaped 18 to 20 per cent since Roosevelt took office! So the real picture shows increased robbery and declining wages since Roosevelt took office with his “New Deal.” That is what the NRA has done to the workers. It has permitted the bosses to grind more out of the workers while it has driven them be- low the Hoover standard of living.
