Somehow, I couldn't | so many years and learning democracy. of teaching | have shown by their actions in their | | Sale jget myself to go Communist after | However, this | | many more times than the big shots. | During the Christmas holidays of | 1931 the company made special low | rates on errands. The understanding jat first was that these rates were | to be only during the holidays and | that the messengers were supposed to et a route, or more than one of these trands on one route, in order to} break even. Today the Western Union is giving| j excellent service on their errands and | at astonishingly low rates. The Lig- | | gett Drug Stores of D:; is have a | special flat rate of 10 cents anywhere in the city limits. The messengers get 50 per cent on these errands, which nge from one to eight miles. There also a number of other concerns | in the city which take advantage of | these same flat rates at the expense | | of the messenge: When the N.'R. A. came into effect | the stern Union sent letters to | their customers thank for | enabling the telegraph ny to raise the salaries of all their em- | |ployes. The messengers were coerced | keeping quiet about it. So far the | messengers have not seen any of this | Taise yet. | "The messengers are also coerced into |paying 45 cents a week for the clean- ing of their uniforms, etc. The boys} jare Supposed to get a clean pair of| |pants every two weeks. Sometimes| ead are made to wear one pair of | pants for three or four weeks. ‘The | | 45 cents is taken from the pay check just the same. In 1924 the messengers of New York | called a strike against this unfair} eraft. These New Yorkers won this | battle, and today they are the only ones who don’t have this to contend { | with. The boys in other cities should “|know of this, and they too should organize and demand that this be| | abolished, and also demand that their s be raised. Phila.

We go there thinking we will be taken care of and treated like men. But we are treated worse than dogs!

Atege SES EDITOR’S NOTE: This letter is from one of the many thousands of railroad workers who through bitter experience in’ tramping the streets have awakened to what the policy of the Roosevelt Administration in dealing with:railroad workers really means. At-the same time they are | learning that the leaders and Grand | Lodge Officers of their Brotherhoods are colaborating with the Adminis- tration and railroad bankers to force starvation conditions upon the railroad workers; The organization of the railroad workers into: an industrial un‘on cannot be accomplished while the mass of the railroad workers remain under the influence of these leaders | nor until they have become more radicalized.

The logical remedy for such con- |ditions is the shorter work week. |But spokesmen for the administra- |tion claim that the U. S. A. which is generously subsidizing and fin- jancing industry, cannot afford such ; ja code for its civil service. After utting the basic pay 15 per cent, [which included substitutes’ hourly |ment, they gave the regulars a 9- |day payless furlough, spread over July August, and September, which had the effect of reducing their |work week from 44 to 39 hours a week. | While the U.

The reactionary nature of the old } postal unons is glaringly demon- strated in their indifference to the exploitation of the substitutes, the | jexertion. of their influence toward jeliminating the furloughs while the | 115 per cent basic cut was still in leffect, and in their failure to fight | | for an NRA code for the civil | service. | It is hoped—planned—that the {recently formed National Association | of Substitute Post Office Employes will develop into a powerful indus- No AFL Program to Fight Layoffs | by Express Firms (By a Worker Correspondent) NEW YORK.—I wrote you several | days ago in reference to the difficul- ties we are experiencing with the | Railway Express Agency. Various phases have arisen in the interim. Last Sunday a meeting of our union, Local No. 808, I. B. of T., was held at the Beethoven Hall. The ques- tion of lay-offs was the main topic. Mr. Tom Lyons, business agent, spoke for almost an hour and con-| fessed that nothing could be done | to bring the express management to; terms to guarantee full time em~- nloyment to all men, Seeral mem~- bers raised the issue of a five-day) jalternative. With that, Business| Agents Lyons and Sheerin became| flustered and stated: “That would! be a breach of contract,” and we don’t want strikes during the depres- sion—and the N. R. A. program grould be stifled. They had no progféssive form of action, Mr. Lyons related how 759 men | have been dispensed with by the Ex- press Agency and that these men would face an awful winter. He shed crocodile tears and pleaded with the-men that he was heloless to bring any relief about for them. It is with profound sorrow that I must admit our industry lacks a courage- ous leader capable of stimulating militant action. ‘We are placed in the position of mere serfs by the cowardly, grafting union officials. The least protest brings forth the ‘cry, “Red.” A group of men have’ petitioned President Green to investigate the local—but I can furnish the answer in advance. Most of us men on the lay-off list have been with the Express Agency | for over 10 years. I trust your worthy organ will make public these facts. As I stated in my previous letter, I am a new reader of the Daily Worker. I am/ grateful to the worker who left a copy of your fighting paper at the Pennsylvania Terminal, where I saw the light. ope Se Editer’s Note:—These railway ex- pressmen, members of the A. F. of L. Teamsters Local, should organize into a group within the local and fight for militant and honest lead- ership. The A. F. of L. Rank and File Committee for Unemployment Insurance, located at 37 E. 13th St., will be glad to give advice to such a group on how to conduct such a fight. The tendency being expressed by some members of this local, to bolt out of the steamsters’ local and join another union, perhaps one of the railway un‘ons, is not correct. The proper way is to remain within your trial union able to carry out a successful struggle against these evils. z organization and fight solidly for real leadership.

Didn't the Communist Party of Germany wait | too long before it made the United Front offer to social-democracy? Pitre ye The American workers ask how it is to be explained that, despite \ alli its treacheries the Social-Democratic} Party of Germany still has such in-} fluence upon the masses of the work~ ers, and could thereby hinder the struggle against the Hitler dictator- ship, The answer to this question is es-} sentially determined by the fact that before the war the Social-Democratic Party was the only proletarian party: Before the war, the Social-Demo- cratic Party had tremendous author- ity among the working class, It made | use of this authority to support Ger- drive the workers to the front and to throttle strikes. After the war, it the revolution. But the broad masses of the workers—I am not speaking of} the vanguard—did not see this, ber. cause the Social-Democratic Party did not only shoot down the revolu- tionary workers, but under the pres- sure of the revolutionary masses whi were under the influence of the Oc- tober Revolution in Russia, it also put through social legislation, which improved the situation of the work- ing class in the first post-war years, as compared with the pre-war period. With the mass organizations of the. trade unions, the cooperatives, the. sport societies, the Reichsbanner, the | Iron Front and its millions of mem-| bers—as a counterweight against the revolutionary united front of the pro-} letarian struggle—the Social Demos | cratic Party ensnared the working class of Germany.
