Another purpose of the convention is | to draw as many working class or- ganizations as possible under one | leadership elected by the convention so as to unify the struggles of the workers of this country against un- | employment. | | Owing to the fact, however, that) | the convention is occurring in mid- | winter—the date being determined by | | the opening of U. 8. Congress, and particularly by the imperative need | of pressing the question of relief and unemployment and social insurance at a time when Roosevelt talks about “private charity,” the size of the dele- | gations must be limited, The diffi- culties will be very great» and this | must be taken into serious considera- tion. Local Struggles for Immediate Relief The struggle for immediate relief is the most pressing. Since the bally- hoo campaign has been on, the num- ber of unemployed has increased and their situation is appalling. Appro- priations by the.muncipal, state and federal governments are totally in- sufficient and are being cut. Mil- lions of workers receive no relief at all. In the State of New York, the State Relief Director admits that one-half of the unemployed have re- ceived no relief whatever. ‘The local (or county) struggle should be based on the most imme- diate needs of the workers in the locality or county. The outstanding demands are: 1. Immediate increased relief in | cash for each worker without dis- crimination. 2. Against any reduction in relief. 3. For food, clothing and shelter for every worker and worker’s child. 4. Against evictions. 5. Against outting-off of gas, light and water. 6. Against forced labor and hen- ger relief wages. 7. For purchase by the govern- ment of the surplus products frem farmers and farm. organizations for distribution under workers’ con- trol, in addition to cash relief. | | | = 8. For relief of part-time work- ers, 9. For dismissal wage, Workers Relief Budgets | {In each loc y (or county) there jshould be worked out a Workers Re- Ujet Budget, taking into consideration the total number of unemployed in the city (or county), the budget per Week for each worker and worker's ‘family, and the total that will be fequired under the Workers Relief | Budget for the winter months (say, four months). A committee should | _ be set up to gather the information | and work in an accurate, business- } liké manner so that at all times we; will be able to back up the asser- tions made. The struggles for the above de- mands, the Workers Relief Budget and such other. immediate issues as, blankets, clothing, sheets, ete.), should be organized in every neigh- borhoed on the basis of the united front of ALL organizations—unem- ployed, unions and other workers’ or- ganizations—with a joint committe to carry through the actions, Local demonstrations, marches, county Amter National Sec: ; Councils marches, struggles at relief bureaus, etc., should be the basis of the work. Coupled with these actions should be at all times the demand for the enactment of the Workers Unem- ployment and Social Insurance Bill. There should be a full explanation and discussion of the Workers Bill, | @ comparison with all other proposed bills, ete. in all organizations, neigh- bY borhoods, through meetings, debates, etc. Resolutions should be adopted at all such meetings, after the dis- cussion, the signature campaign to be carried on, etc. Resolutions should be sent to President Roosevelt de- manding the enactment of the Work- ers Bill. In addition, marches and demon- strations to the city authorities should be organized for the express | purpose of compelling the city ad-! of U.

The announcement, therefore, means that the steel trusts are no longer willing to have this trend known. Steel production is now at 25 per cent of capacity, compared with 62 per cent in July. | employed Councils and although re- 5.

During the first eight and half months of this year, 6,819 eviction writs were issued, 924 of which were carried out. In 1932 nearly 10,000 writs were distributed in the capitol city with 1,158 actual evic- tions.

Evictions High Prices Meet Gets| Energetic Response NEW YORK.—With the help of a | strong house committee organized by the 43rd St. Block Committee in Brooklyn and the Building Main- tenance Union and picket lines in front of the building at 1454 43rd St., the landlord were compelled to rein- state the janitor. Mike Cheluka, whose wife is with child, was told by the landlords he would have to get out. The reason being that since he had rented but most of the empty apartments in the building they could get rid of him. Every one of the tenants signed a petition for reinstatement of the janitor, mass meetings were held, and when an attempt was made to evict the famiy, the tenants threatened a rent strike. The landlords agreed to let Cheluka remain, The Provisional Committee of the Bronx Conference against, the High Cost of Living reports a miiitant re- sponse from the housewives in the Bronx against rising prices. This is the second conference arranged by the United Council of Working Class Women. Delegates will come from house committees and fraternal or- ganizations. Demand Removal of 50 P. C. Relief Cut Colo. Sorings Workers Meet Before Board COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo.—De- manding withdrawal of the 50 per cent relief cut, several hupdred wor's- ers demonstrated in front of the El Paso County R.F.C. board. This was| the answer of the workers to the jail- ing of P. C. Fesee, unemployed leader, for stopping an eviction, in the hope their relief cut would go unchallenzed. When ‘the delezation pointed out to Volmer, head of the Board, that the ‘Truck Act expressly forbids forced la- bor for groceries he squirmed and said the law does not apply to the present emergency. To all the promises of Volmer, the workers demanded that the Boar’ go on record favoring the Workers Un- employment Insurance Bill. FORMER EMPLOYEES OUT CHICAGO, Nov. 3. — Although it had signed an N. R. A. code, the American Daily Sports and Racing Record, a newspaper largely devoted to news of the horseracing tracks, Tefused to reinstate former em- ployees. SCHOOL BOYS STRIKE WILKES-BARRE, Nov. 8—Pro- testing against being transferred from their regular class room to the auditozium, which they declared was cold, 21 boys at the Wilkes-Barre township high school went on strike. Bread Lines Increase In All Cities Under Roosevelt’s Hunger Program —® on there were 4,500,000 heads of families the relief rolls of the country ral months ago, Owing to the ged “reemployment” under the “new deal,” 1,000,000 unemployed are supposed to have found jobbs, Of the remaining 3,500.000 family heads, 2,000,000 are now to be given jobs on November 16 and 2,000,000 month later. To say that unemployment has decreased is not true. Shortly after March 4, a few hundred thousands procured jobs, on the basis of the }employers producing for stock and for speculation. But today, these workers together with hundreds of thousands more have been laid off or fired. Steel has declined from 59 per cent |to 25 per cent and is going down. Auto, railroad, building construction, | electrical power consumption have dec'ined to a low figure. Production at the present time—Nov 8—is as low as at the same time in 1931. | The steel producers hope for an up- | turn after the new year. In some plants they tell the workers to “come back in Apri It is obvious, therefore, that mil- lions will get no work—and will starve. In addition, Roosevelt proposes that the new relief workers shall work not on'y in the parks, but on construction work at the “prevailing wages.” This is a direct attack on the union scales, and must rouse the trade unions to immediate action. Although this has been the practice | during the whole crisis, the burocrats | of the unions have done nothing to end the abuse. Now the rank and file must take jt up in every union ghd make a fight for union wages. Roosevelt promises now the unem- ployed $50 a month. But this will be much lower when the forced labor jobs open. When one takes into con- sideration the rapidly mounting cost of living, the carfare that the workers will have to spend, the need of warm clothing, etc., this is a coolie “wage.” The workers must demand union wages and organize on the job to fight for it. It is noteworthy that the single men are not considered at all in Rooseveli’s proposal, since they re- ceive no relief. The single men must organize and put up a fight for work —also sj union wages. The Negro worke:'s will continue to be discrim- inated against, as they have been in relief and in the application of the codes under the NRA. A big job is ahead for the Unem- | ployed Councils in organizing the workers to demand union wages on | all relief jobs, to prevent discrimina- tion against Negroes and to obtain work for the single men. We must also raise the question of the single and homeless women, for whom absolutesly no provision is made. What is become of the elderly men? But above all, Roosevelt knows that millions will get no work—and no relief; that the measures he pro- poses are not solving the situation. The of Unemployment and Social Insurance becomes clearer every day. Roosevelt sidesteps this issue, pre- ferring to keep the unemployed either starving or on hunger rations. The coming National Convention Against Plead ects ch in Washing- ton, D. C., on Jan, 13-15 called by the Unempl sed Councils musbp be the rallying point for the whole working class in the struggle against unem- ployment. Roosevelt’s decree means a | continuation of hunger. It will not | prevent the addition of millions more to the army of unemployed through the lay-offs and firing that are tak- ing place. It will not provide adequate food, shelter and clothing for the unemployed and part time workers and their families. ‘The struggle against the Roosevelt program must be taken up in every locality, on every relief job, building orgkanization and putting up a fight. This is the immediate task of the Unemployed Councils. Half of Force is Laid Off at Chase Brass & Copper Co. By a Metal ‘Worker Correspondent CLEVELAND, Ohio.—When this NRA started, Chase Brass and Cooper Co. put on three shifts working day and night. All Cleveland pavers wrote about it. Our wages are $16 and 40 hours a week and anly few get more. We get a few dollars of bonus. Now they laid off half and there is no news about that. ‘The company corries insurame, and I have seen workers get their fingers cut off and have to stay in the shop so they shall not draw insurance. Another broke his foot and had to be in the shop. ‘They check us 8 times @ day, the and night. We ring cards four times morning in, noon out and in, and at night, and then in the shop two times, about 9 o'clock and 10 o'clock.
