Y. i DAILY WORKER, NEW YORK, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 30, 1933 Southern Schools | Make Life Hard for) Negro Children (By a Negro Worker Correspondent) SOUTH NORFOLK, Va.—I have visited the schools in South Norfolk. The children in the Colored schools have to pay for their own school books and uther supplies. The mothers and fathers are not able to support these needs and that is why many children cannot go to school here. There are about 300 colored kids in South Norfolk (which has & povulation of 3,000), who would go to school if they could. Some of the parents have been out of work for six months and a lot more. The colored children cannot talk for their rights, the schools have not pity at all on these kids. If they had a little they would prepare hot meals and give w clothes to ids. This is how children grow up with- out the know] | writing. But those that do go to school are not any better off. They are not taught the right thing in school or there would not he so much frame-ups, lynching and op- pression of our race. In the white schools, hot meals and milk is given to the poor chil- dren and that is why the white chil- dren are so far ahead in education | than the colored. The white children are taught to think they are better than the Negro kids, when one is no worse than the other. These kids are cunningly made to believe that white means to be higher and purer than black. All the same the poor white are catching hell just the sar as we are. There was a white y man tried in Norfolk the other for forging a bi note. He w one of those hard toiling whites and they turned him loose. If that would have been a Negro he would have been sent to the pen for 20 years. That is why poor John Askew is in jail today. Norfolk Jail Is a Torture Den By a Negro Worker Correspondent NORFOLK, Va.—In Norfolk City Jail they have unsanitary toilets, the plumbing being neglected in some cases for years. Most of the toilets are stopped and do not flush, causing an impossible odor. The walls are full of cobwebs. No proper place for sleep for the prisoners—just a stool bunk with no mattress and only one lousy blanket to cover with these cold nights. The place is swarming with lice. They keep the windows open but with the flimsy covering the prisoners have colds all the time. They get two meals a day made up of black molasses, lousy corn bread and half dome beans, Although 60 per cent of the population of Norfol are whites, the jail is practically full of Negroes. Six months in a place poke this can surely kill a man. Southern White Boy Apologizes for Use of |Boss-Inspired Terms) By a Negro Worker Correspondent | | FORT KNOX, Ky.—tI have been a member of the Civilian Conservation Corps exactly 27 days. During that time I have cut down trees, worked on roads, done kitchen work, worked in the rock quarry and on trucks, and done many other types of work. shall relate one incident that hap- pened to me and a group of eight boys a few days ago. Our day's work was finished and we were waiting to check our tools. A group of white boys marched to a stand-still. The leader stepped out of formation and quickly checked the tools for his group. Then he asked the sergeant, “Shall I check the nigger’s tools also?” One of the boys in our group gasped, “What did he say?” A braver lad re- peated the question to the white boy. The white boy calmly repeated his original question. Then, he added, “I’m from the South. That's what we call you down there.” That made all of us angry, Oné of the boys even threatened to smash his face in with a shovel. We all told him that we respected him, and we didn’t want to be called niggers but Negroes. He didn’t say another word. The group of boys with him were as silent as death. Later, he saw one of the boys at the show and told him to tell us he was sorry. He said he wasn't trying to be funny, but that’s what he had called Negroes all his life, Company J-5, C.C.C., Fort Knox, Ky.

Rush them to Children Have Not Had a Cup of Milk in 19 Months; All Four Under Weight (By a White Southern Woman) BIRMINGHAM, Ala.—I am a poor ard working woman. My husband “2a3 been out of work 19 months. We have got only enough relief from the Red Cross and public welfare to keep from starving, but not enough to keep from going hungry. It sure does make a mother’s heart ache to see her children go hungry. Our children have not had a cup of milk in 19 months. Our baby will be eight years old in March, and weighs 33 pounds. We have four children and all underweight. Our 18 year old son was forced away from home 17 months ago be- cause we could not get enough to eat. He works hard all the time and gets nothing but what he eats. He went away so his little sisters and brothers could have more to eat. My husband is now working for cash relief, but does not get enough for food and clothes. Our three smallest are going 40 school. We cannot furnish supplies for them, such as paper und pencil and other things they need. We cannot pay their fees. The teacher wrote up on the black- board: “We have enough self-respect to pay our fees.” She knew they could not pay fees. Our children do not get hot lunches. It is not just our little children, but the children of all the working class. There are three little children going to school “bare-footed.” They have not had shoes this Winter, So the only way to stop all this trouble is for the working class, white and Negro, to organize together and fight together for our rights. ‘Negro Employes Are Fired by Webster Hall Separation Plan Based Loading of Dirt, Correspondent Writes (By a Worker Correspondent) DETROIT, Mich. — The Webster Hall Hotel, at Cass and Putnam Sts., Detroit, is only one of the examvles of labor exploiters, but they are typ- ical of the entire group. It is owned by the “Transcontinental Hotel Co.,” an outgrowth of the former Strauss Investment Co., notorious labor-hat- ing organization, who went into bankruptcy several years ago, de- frauding through fts highly watered stock, thousands of workers who had laced their money in “safe” invest- ment stocks. Webster Hall Hotel is carrying on iis record of anti-working class tac- tics, under the legitimate leadership of General Johnson and his N.R.A. bird. On Friday, Nov. 24th, at 6:30 in the morning, when the shéft of Negro bell-boys and elevator girls re- ported to work, they were met down- stairs by an assistant manager, who was instructed to tell every one of them that they were “fired.” As a result of the hotel code, the manage- ment was to be obliged to pay em- ployees a minimum of $15 per week for a 54-hour week, in place of $10. Rather than pay this magnificent sum to Negro men and women, I. W. Strauss, trustee of the ex-Strauss manarcment, now the Transconti- nental Hotel Co., through his mana- ser, J. H. Kane, Negro-hating slave driver, decided to discharge every | Negro employee of the hotel and em- Hotel, Detroit o nDesire to Speed-Up ploy white men and women in their places. Instead of “benefitting” under the code, the new employees are forced to put in the maximum, rather than the minimum hours per week, and at present the several Negro house | boys who are still left are exploited | to the utmost by having a greater number of duties foisted upon them. Two arsistant cashiers were in- formed Friday evening that after Sunday their services would be re- | quired no longer, as the code required | that they be paid the same salary for six days work that they were getting for seven (they were already cut to the minimum). They are being replaced with girls. ‘These men have unfortunately not been able to feel their solidarity with their Negro brothers, and have not | joined with them in the battle to} end this exploitation and discrimina- | tion. One of the assistant managers was also fired without any notice. A few days later the Negro bus boys in the coffee shop of Webster Hall, as well as the Negro porter, were fired. It is reported that the Negro house boys are due to meet the sume fate. There is a crying need for organization of these ex- ploited wage slaves by the local Trade | Union Unity League. | Editor: For further infor: write T.U.U.L., 4210 Woodward Ave., Detroit.

System of Inequality (By a Worker Correspondent) CINCINNATI, O.—I would like to add to the story of the missing Par- sons boy who came home after his familys house burned down, to find no moher or father, and only a brother, 17 years old. What has the future in store for these Negro boys, Rufus and Ray- mond Parsons? I can judge that the highways and freight trains will be their next hunting grounds, and star- vation will be following them wher- ever they go. This is a good example of the capi- talist society. One fantily of two live in a mansion with plenty of room for 10 humans to live in; the other family of 8 live in a dog house or one-way rat holes that have no out= let for a fire escape. These dog houses are built of old boards that burned like gunpowder in dry sea- sons. us before Dec, 30. Here is a leaflet written by the Chelsea Troop in Boston, calling the kids of the neighborhood and school to protest against raising the -price of milk in Boston. This resulted in Grated 40 new kids for the troop. ‘ot only that, but when the teacher in school asked the children (the same school in which the leaflet was distributed), “Who are the Pio- neers?” all the children got up and answered, “We are the Pioneers.” This is swell!

I long for the day when both Negro and white will unite in one mighty army to dump the cap- italists off our backs.

White Southern Woman Calls for Unity of Negro and White Against Starvation Even Small Filthy Shack Is Not Safe from Greedy Boss By a Negro Worker Correspondent BERKELEY, Va.—t live in a hell hole called Berkeley, where the land- lords and the rental agents have the rule as the devil is the boss of hell. I have been out of work for two years and have moved and moyed until I haven't anything more to move, so I found a little old house that did not belong to anyone with no rent to pay at all, so I moved in there with my five little ones and wife. I fitted it so that I could live there. We stayed there about two weeks withcut water, making out the best way we could, when one of the larg- est and wickedest rental agents in Berkeley, E. C, Savage, knocked at the door and asked if I had seen him before moving in. I replied no. He said that if I did not see him at once he would arrest the whole family and see that we got locked up for tres- passing. My wife and five little girls from 15 years down to five years of age all would be sent to jail. This same Savage put a rent tag on the colored cemetery in Berkeley the other day. Before that he had just evicted a family with a sick woman and child, and now is plan- ning to evict the dead. Well, this heartless savage got a nice little lesson before from the Un- employed Council. He is riding for another fall and he is going to get it. In the meantime I am still living in the filthy abandoned little shack. Negro Unemployed Workers Protest to Congressman, The fololwing is a letter sent to one of the congressmen from Bir- mingham, Ala., by a group of Negro workers.

We were cut off on Noy. 20, 1933, at 10 a.m., the day cash relief began. |Since then we cannoé get any aid from the relief roull. “Mr. Huddleston, our colored ladies are treated awfully bad when they go to the relief office to put in their orders. They have no place to rest, no rest room and must go some place. Mr, Huddleston, it is shameful the way the poor Negroes are treated here in Birmingham by the Depart- ment of Welfare. “We are sending you the names of the workers who have been cut from the relief rolls, leaving them without work or food.

These organizations are too often regarded as duplicates of the Party, and the sectarianism, which the Party is striving so seri- ously to overcome, is found here, sometimes to an even greater degree than within the Party itself. Purpose and Function of Friends of the Soviet Union ‘The Friends of the Soviet Union is one of the mass organizations built on the principle of the united front. The basis for this united front is sympathy for the Soviet Union. Ev- erybody knows that sympathy for the Soviet Union is not limited to the revolutionary workers. There are lit- erally millions of workers, farmers, in- tellectuals and small business people who are sympathetic to the Soviet Union for one reason or another. Some are sympathetic only because of the Soviet Union's sincere strug- gle for peace. Others are sympathetic because the Soviet Government alone has solved the problem of the na- tional minorities to the complete sat- isfaction of the minorities concerned. Still others are sympathetic because in their opinion the Soviet Union is conducting a great social experiment, the outcome of which is of vital im- portance to humanity. This sympathy for the Soviet Union is the corner- stone upon which can be built a mass organization which will unite these diverse elements with the revolution- ary workers on the specific program of the F.S,U., which is to spread accu- rate information about Socialist con- struction in the Soviet Union, to an- | swer the lies of its enemies and to mobilize the American toiling masses for its defense. However, in order to enlist these various elements in the F.S.U. and keep them in the organization the F.S.U. must be a non-party organiza- tion, and its agitation and propa- ganda must correspond to its non- party character, which should also be reflected in the composition of its functionaries and committees. Unfor- tunately the reverse has been true hitherto. Until the beginning of 1933 the principal activity of the F.S.U. has been participation in the cam- tial election campaign in 1932 the Na= tional Committee of the F.S.U. en- dorsed Foster and Ford. As a result of this endorsement many Soctlalist members as well as others without party affiliation, were alienated from the! F.S.U. During that campaign F,S.U. branches distributed the Party platform and other Party election campaign literature. Frequentiy mass meetings and other affairs ar- ranged by the F.S.U. are converted into Party affairs..There are cases of the removal of F.S.U, functionaries who are Party members by Party dis- trict or section organizers without re gard to F.S.U. needs and practices, Pressure is exerted upon the F.8.U. by the Party to participate in prac- ically every financial drive inaugu- rated by the district, section or local organization of the Party. In some places the literature agents of the FS.U. sell the Daily Worker, and other official organs of the Party. Obviously these are political emis- takes and they are being made be- cause the Party does not understand clearly the role of the F.S,U. For the same reason the overwhelming ma- jority of the functionaries of the F. 5. U. consists of Party members. Such a condition is in itself sufficient to stamp the F. S. U. as 8 Party or- ganization. How should Party members func- tion in the F.S.U.? Certainly not to attempt to convert the F.S.U. into a duplicate of, or substitute for the Party. It is their task, as in other mass organizations, to he the most active workers in carrying out the aims of the F.S.U., and to give it correct political guidance through properly functioning fractions, At the same time it is thei duty to re~ cruit the best elements of the F.S.U, into the Party.

Its purpose is to detect the impression certain words make on the subject; whether he is neutral to them or whether they arouse him. The chances are that she does not love you, because if she did, you’d need no test: You'd feel it.
