All of the ‘ocal papers © | gave it more or less space. The Unempioyed Council pre- sented a draft ordinance calling for Workers Relief to the City Council for taeir approval or_ rejection, which was rejected, the Mayor giv- ing a written answer to all of the 12 points of the Ordinance, all but the one pertaining to lights and water and the eviction clause. The workers’ committee pointed out that the Mayor was hiding be- hind technicalities in his statement, which in most cases said that the Council was not allowed to do this or that by law, that this or that was the function of some other governing body. The Mayor be- came much agitated over this and| said that the Committee was trying to harrass the Council instead of cooperating with it, The Unem- ployed Council will- continue the fight for its demands. The Workers Unemployment In- surance Bill calls for. payment by the federal government to all un- employed workers of unemploy- ment insurance equal to the aver- age wages prevailing in the re- spective industries, in no case below $10.00 per week for each adult, plus $3.00 for each dependent. The bill demands no discrimination against any worker regardless of race, sex, age, color or political opinion. The funds are to be ob- tained, as provided in the bill, at the expense of the government ani the employers, by diverting war funds to the unemployed and by taxing incomes over $5,000. The funds are to be administered by workers throuzh Unemployment Insurance Commissions, composed of rank and file members of the workers’ organizations. The bill also demands social insurance, sim- ilarly, for: the aged, sick, and ac- cident cases, and part time workers. ., Tacoma is the second largest city fn Washington, being a port town ‘with many railroad and lumber workers, dock and ship workers and fishermen. Cincinnati Jobless Win Relief Victories Big Gains Prove Value of Mass Actions CINCINNATI, Ohio, Nov. 5.—The local Unemployed Councils yesterday cited as examples of the efficacy of their frequent mass demonstrations a series of victor‘es recently won by the workers in their fight to raise standards of relief for the jobless. Among these victories they recorded the following: 1, At the California Waterworks Relief Job, under the leadership of the Unemployed Councils, a petition was circulated demanding $6 for two days’ relief work, instead of being paid $3.50 cash, and the balance in groceries, as is the practice on all two days a week relief jobs. The petition ‘was unanimously signed and backed up by the unemployed on the job, and the result was that the demands were granted. < 2. The unemployed working every other week on relief jobs were never given relief on the weeks that they did not work. However, the unem- ployed on the Walnut Hills Hich School Relief Job formed a commit- tee on the job which presented their grievances to the Welfare Depart- ment, and the result of this action was that @ number of unemployed received ‘groceries and other neces- sities the week they were off. 3. In line with the policy of the N.R.A. to increase forced labor, the unemployed on the two-days-a-week Telief work were made to work a half an hour extra each day. The unem- ployed at the Woodshed Relief Job answered this scheme to enslave the unemployed still further, by walking off the job. Their action resulted in the reduction of the work day to seven hours, Meeting On N.R.A. CLEVELAND.—I. ©.

M. Leiserson, secretary of the National Labor Board, saying: “.,,.We wrote the company regard- ing your complaint.

Biedenkapp, who heads a work- ers’ delegation composed of Frank Costello, Frank McGrath and Matto Raguso, declared: “After waiting in Washinzton 24 hours for the decision of the National Lebor Board on the New York shoe strike and after pre- senting a signed summary of the strike situation, the S.L.W.LU. dele- gation feels that the Board has had ample time during the past six weeks to enforce the nominal provisions of Section 7(a) and the have the board use its authoritative power to force the manufacturers to recognize the strikers’ representatives and their chosen organization, the S.L.W.1.U.” In discussing the hesitancy to act on the part of the National Labor Board, Biedenkapp stated that “this hesitancy coincided with the open statement made last week by William Green of the American Federation of Labor to the delegation of shoe strikers when he said: ‘Go back to work and the National Labor Board will take care of you next January.’” CHICAGO.—The Chicago Pen and Hammer announces a lecture by Carl Haessler on “The Changing Status of the Professional Worker,” Wednes- DAILY WORKER, NEW YORK, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 1938 Page Three irance Tammany Uses Relief Funds to Build Political Machine Letters Show How Favoritism Is Basis for Relief | NEW YORK.—Proof that) Tammany Mayor O’Brien, who is now running under the slo- gan, “Support Unemployment Relief; Vote for O’Brien,” used the meager | funds of the Home Relief Bureau to reward political supporters, has been | obtained by the Daily Worker. In a letter sent to the supervisor | of the 78th St. Relief Bureau asking or aid for Joseph Di Marco this) significant sentence is found: “This is the man in whom Senator Wagner is interested.” Judging from the notations on the letter the wheels of the Home Relief Bureau moved with terrific speed to give the bearer re- lief. Another letter written by Thomas Dorsey of the 14th Assembly District on the official stationery of the Board of Aldermen to the same Re- lief Bureau states that Martin Byrnes “has been a member of our organiza- tion (Tammany—Ed.) for the past five years, He voted in the last elec- tions and we know him to be of good character and a credit to the com- munity he lives in.” Byrnes was given immediate relief. Investigation of this case by the Daily Worker revealed that Brynes was constantly drunk. He lived, to- gether with three other companions, at 317 E. Tist St. up until recently, when he moved away. But not until he had smashed all the windows and doors of the apartment after a drunken fight with his friends, ac- cording to the janitress, Mrs. Psarik. This is the “credit to the community,” who receives swift re- lief while workers who don't vote “right” are compelled to wait from one month to two months before their applications are passed on. The supervisor, for example, of the 8ist St. and York Ave. Bureau, Bernard Fagan, is the son of one of the most influential Democrats in the state, who is the head of the New York State Parole Commission. His son was appointed by Tammany to the soft job of supervisor as a Political reward and to make sure ‘Tammany voters get theirs first. Fagan, Sr., has a brother-in-law by the name of Englander. As soon as this Mr. Englander failed the Civil Service examinations for the job of custodian of the Parole Bcard, Tammany immediately utilized him by placing him in charge of all re- lief on Staten Island. Englander was sure to ite this recognition of his capacity by the Democratic Party. A delicatessen; storekeeper back in January wanted to obtain permission from the Home Relief to cash gro- cery vouchers. Realizing that he had no groceries or vegetables which the law specifies he must have before he can cash the vouchen'’, Mr, Gus~ tave Schmidt of 475 Sezond Ave. went to the Tammany City Clerk of New York, Michael J. Cruise, and had a little chat with him.

But Griffen and Smith rushed to the aid of the employers and the government and told the strikers to rely on the N.R.A. in Washington. This was exactly what the employers wanted, By dragging out negotia- tions and paralyzing strike activty, they were able to demoralize the ranks of the strikers. The N.R.A. capped the climax by insulting the delegation to Washington and send- ing them back empty-handed. It ts clear that the policy of Grif- fen and Smith has been a strike breaking policy and actually no dif- ferent from that of the A. F, of L. leaders. It is equally clear that the N. R. A. is not an organization to help the workers get their rights, as Griffen and Smith pictured it, but @ government strikebreaking agency whose object is to help the employers lower wages and the general living standards of the working people of this country, Griffen, Smith, the em- ployers and the government worked hand in hand—against the strikers, These tactics of the Smith-Griffen clique were responsible for the fact that thousands of men became dis- couraged and began going back to work. They are also responsible for the fact that during the last few days the strikers have been driven to acts of desperation in an effort to win the strike, In this situation the statements of Griffen and Smith, washing their hands of all responsi- bility, and- especially Smith’s state- ment to General Motors officials that “the radical elements” are responsible for these acts, is nothing short of ight for Aut N.
