DAILY WORKER, NEW YORK, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 10, 1934 “Recovery” Measures Jailers Steal Gifts | In Budget Mask War Aid, Profit Guarantee“ Roosevelt Budget Has Billions for Wall Street | Monopolies; Organizes the Country for War Building By MILTON HOWARD bigs WORD of Roosevelt will soon become a proverb—for shiftiness of me leaning. When millions of jobless demand relief and Unemployment Insurance to protect them against the starva- tion and suffering which the capit- alist crisis has brought them, Roose- velt takes on a very sad, noble ex- pression, and replies that much as he feels for their needs, the government cannot “afford” to establish the vole,” that it has no money, that it must “balance the budget.” And then he announces in his new “recovery” budget message that the government will raise $10,000,000,000 not for unemployment insurance, but for the gearing up of industry for profits, for war! But in the very message in which he announced this (all wrapped up in talk of “humanity”), Roosevelt promised the toiling masses, the workers and impoverished farmers, that the load of national debt. they would have to carry would not ex- ceed $31,000,000,000 by 1935, the most mountainous load of debi the popu- lation has ever had to carry. And the very next day, Roosevelt casually informed the workers that they would have to carry another four billion to “re-finance” (guarantee) the mortgages held by Wall Street bankers and investors, bringing the total government debt to $35,000,000,- 000! The same ruling class trickery characterizes the whole Roosevelt) $10,000,000,000 budzet. | Four Billion War Debt | Within the next 12 months Roose- | velt says he needs $6,000,000,000 for his “emergency” program, and $4,000,- 000,000 to pay off the owners of Liberty bonds, government securities, ete. H ‘The $4,000,000,000 Liberty bond loan | was war loan, and the $4,000,000,000 to he wrung from the people to pay the bondhoiders is just an example | of the way ‘the capitalists use the! government to make the masses pay/| for the expenses of imperialist war.| First Wall Streét reaps 2 ghastly harvest of profits from the mass murder of war, and then it uses its government as a collecting agent to make the workers and impoverished farmers pay the expenses of the war in which they and their sons were slaughtered! Such is one of the func-j tions ef uudget! A wo that the, “or-| diflary" budget fe next year amounting to $3,543,000,000, contains about 86 per cent pure plunder and swindle in the interests of the Wall Street bankers, investors, big land- lords, and the military machine. In the ordinary budget for “1934 Roosevelt will spend $92,000,000 for) ‘river and harbor work”—that means military war preparations! | Then the 1934 budget provides for} the spending of $51,000,000 for. the | Army and Navy directly (exclusive of indirect appropriations through the Public Works Fund)—more prep- arations for war! And the A. A. A, will get, $514,000,- | 900 to help the big farm landlords | get high prices on their. crops by de- stroying part of the crop, and driving the small farmer into. pauperism through acreage reduction. And the annual payments to the bankers of their bond and loan in- terest will rise next year by $80,000,- 000 to reach the staggering total of $842,000,000—collected in taxes by Roosevelt and sent right straight into the pockets of the Wall Street “money changers,” about whom Roosevelt says so many things. F ‘ae Public Works War Building OW for the big “emergency” bud- get. Roosevelt wants $7,523,000,000 in the next six months for his. “re- covery” budget. The first item is $1,227,000,000 for “public works.’ This “;-blic works” program of Roosevelt has been, in actuality, the greatest war building program on record in this country during peace time. Here are some typical Roosevelt The next item is $400,000,000 for the C. W. A. supposedly for the wel- 50,000 have been given jobs through the P. W. A. war building. ‘The next item in the “emergency” budget is C, O. C. camps—$342,000,000. Even the Secretary of War has ad- mitted that these camps are part of the Army training ground for the coming war. Thousands of jobless youth are herded into these isolated camps under the military command of Army officers, in the name of “re- lief to the jobless youth.” R. F, C. Billions For Wall St. Then we come to the most stag- gering appropriation of all in the next year “emergency” budget of Roosevelt, the $3,970,000,000 to be handed out to the R. F. C. This will make the total expenditures of the R. F. ©. since its birth last year to about $6,000,000,000! A leading Wall Street paver won- dered yesterday how Roosevelt was going to spend all the six billion he wants for the next six months. and it hit upon the answer—the R. F. C.! Is there a worker in America who has not been following the endless stream of money that has been pour- ing from the R. F. C. into the banks, railroads, trust companies, mortgage companies, etc? The R. F. C., ballyhooed as an in- strument for “recovery,” it is now clear is the agency whereby the Wall Street clique of finance capital is using the capitalist State to shield it from the blows of the crisis, to guarantee its profits and investments. And Roosevelt wants to give it an- other four billion within the next fiscal year! For what? For loans to bankrupt banks— $1,350.000,000 already handed ont. For direct subsidies to stockholders of bankrupt and weakened banks— through purchases of preferred stock—$823,000,000 already author- ized, and another billion on the way! For huge loans to railroads, almost a billion dollars so that they can pay off “fixed charges,” in- terest payments to bondholders! For mortgage holders who cannot collect on their mortgages, and who desire to exchange their worthless mortgages for euaranteed U. §, Government bonds! Four billion through the R. F. ©. to_protect profits and investors! Four billion more to guarantee the farm and home loan mortgages, through guaranteed U. 8. Govern- ment bonds! - Here is the capitalist plundering reality behind the Roosevelt “emerg- ency” budget-war building and sub- sidies to Wall Street monopoly! To make the masses carry the load of the crisis! To shift the losses of monopoly capital on to the backs of the workers and impoverished farmers through government “loans” to be naid for by wringing crushing taxes from the masses, by driving down the working class portion of the total national income through wage slashes and the inflationary price scissors! The entire Roosevelt budget is part and parcel of the major drive of the Roosevelt government — to get the Wall Street capitalists out of the crisis through protection of profits and—imperialist war! The loans to the railroads for “equip- ment,” the maintenance of bank- rupt industry, the rapid “improve- ment of the harbors and bridzes,” the military training in the C. ©. C. camps, the military construction of the P. W. A, and C. W. A., the lightening of the grip of Wali Street monopoly on agriculture through the A. A. A,, the tireless zeal to shield the profits of the Wall Street monopolies, and the vigantic war building program are nart of the Roosevelt organization for the coming imperialist war. They are part and parcel of the whole New Deal-N. R. A. program for the beating down of the masses and the aggressive expansion for markets, It is a sinister fact that Roosevelt in his new budget proposes to spend sixteen billion do!}rs in the next 12 months, a rate that exceeds the 1917 War spending, by four billion dollars! What is the Relation of the Budget To the Crisis? How is the money going to be raised? What will it mean to the Government credit? To the work- ers wages? Taxes? How will it affect the jobless? What must we do to fight this hunger-war budget? (To be concluded tomorrow) Try to Frame Two Los Angeles Fur Strikers LOS ANGELES, Jan. 4 (by mail), ~Harry Cohen and Bob Goldstein, fur workers on strike at Rifkin’s Fur Shop, 719 So. Los Angeles St., have answered to a warrant charg- ing them with assault with a deadly Weapon on Katzman, the one scab in the shop Cohen is out on a $1,000 bail. These two workers have been framed because of their activity in the strike and as union function- aries. Goldstein was by the boss after he had exposed the Gee a meeting of the Warsaw erein, the “red squad.” Rifkin and Sons has been the scene of several strikes this season. After signing an agreement with the union, the boss attempted to maintain an open shop. The present strike has lasted five weeks and is at the point of victory. The present frame-up attempt is not the first on the part of Rifkin. Two weeks ago, six of the leading union members were arrested on a charge of loitering. The strikers have announced that charges against Goldstein and Cohen. the farms where they can join their fellow sufferers who are being evicted for default on mortgage pay- ments! To date little more thon They are answering the frame-up of the “socialist” boss with better picket lines and urge Los Angeles workers to help them by coming to Superior Court on Jan. 15, when the two arrested workers go on trial.

R. A. code with the sanction of the N. R. A. is revealed in a con- fidential letter from the company to its trade association, the Men's Garter, Suspender and Belt Manufac- turing Co. ‘The letter was brought to the Daily Worker yesterday. Under the temporary code, writes the company, the boys in the shop were getting $16 a week. Now under the permanent cotle “we are permitted to pay $14 if we have occasion to do so.” This forecasts a wage cut of $2 a week for the workers. |The main object of the letter, how- | ever, is to get a ruling from the code authority which will enable the own- ers to avoid classifying the boys who cut imitation leather as cutters under the code. Now the boys earn $18 a Week. If classified as cutters they will have to be paid more. “Until such time as we get a ruling from the code authority as to how they are to be paid, they will not be classi- fied by us as cutters.” The letter serves as instructions to the trade association to obtain the ruling desired by the company, which will rob many workers of more wages by the trick of changing their classi- fication, | The company urges that its name should not be mentioned when the ruling is obtained.

Many shortcomings in the work of the Finnish Buro remain. Chief among these the Polburo notes: a) The decisive need of further consolidating a real collective lead- ership in the Buro and the Federa- tion on the basis of the line of the Open Letter, the fullest development of a serious Bolshevik self-criticism, and the most determined, united struggle against all opportunist ten- dencies, both right as the main dan- ger and “left,” and against all rem- nants of unprincipled factional ten- dencies; b) The serious training and pro- motion of new cadres; ¢) The development of serious re- cruiting activities must be undertaken with special membership drives for the Federation in the various Dis- tricts planned in connection with the extention of the mass activities; unorganized ers and those under the influence of the social fascist leaders and organ- izations indicating a clarification of this question since the October Dis- trict Convention, the organizational gains of the Federation (12 new work- ers clubs, 21 youth clubs, 5 women's clubs), the response of the Federa- tion to the Daily Worker's $40,000 drive, the sending of more than a hundred delegates to the American Congress Against War, the participa~ tion of the Finnish Clubs in the driye to aid the victims of German fascism. Still Many Shortcomings While recognizing these achieve- ments, the Polburo points out that those must be taken only as an in- dication of the correctness of the general line of the Buro, a ine which Must Have Opposition Group d@) A determined effort must be made to set up opposition groups in the mass organizations: under the control of the social fascists and the renegade Halonen; e) More stress musi be placed on the organization of new youth clubs in the Federation and the strength- ening of the old, overcoming all op- Position to this work both among the 4. The Press, the daily pzpers and the periodicals, of the Federation re- quire the special attention of the Buro. Here a decisive line must be adopted which leads toward trans- forming the entire press into por lar mass political papers. With weakening, but on the contrary, strengthening the press as the agita- tion, propagandist and organizer o! the movement (the Federation and the Party) a real popular mass lan guage must be developed, special features introduced, more photo- graphs and illustrations used, etc. The narrow sectarianism of the press, expressed in the inner-Part: approach to questions, must be qui ly overcome. To accomplish thi changes a workers’ advisory commit: tee must be set up and around each paper which will regularly meet the editors and encouraged to criti- cally examine the contents and the approach to problems presented in each issue. Workers’ and farmers’ correspondence must be increased in all of the papers. All tendencies to liquidate one of the daily papers, either the Tyomies or the Eteenpain, must be combatted and defeated as contrary to the line of the Political Buro, Overcome Factional Tendencies 5. The Political Buro particularly Stresses the necessity of overcoming all group and factional tendencies and the establishment throughout the Federation of a truly collective lead-| Strong ership. Despite considerable: progress in overcoming past differences and in unifying the leadership, there still remain certain remnants of the past which must be decisively combatted. These tendencies still reflect efforts to speculate on non-existent political differences in the Buro, to under- mine the authority of Comrade John- son and the Finnish Buro, ete. An example of these tendencies is the conduct of Comrade Leo Mattson, adults and the youth; f) The systematic recruiting of the most militant and capable Fin- nish workers and poor farmers for the Communist Party and the Young Communist League, both from the Federation membership and outside. The carrying through of these tasks must receive the full attention of the Buro and the leading comrades of the Finnish moyeme 9 Soom, Ge be Ft , While at them to local re- ad been it the ong the rank and yD arena, Comrades W arnedAgainst Factional Remnants Still Evident meetings of the Ty- board attempted to e Buro Secretary, Com- ‘2 Johnson, deliberately distorting the line of Comrade Johnson on the popularizing the press, | in ‘al non-political } a basis for attack, etc., re- methods again in the 0th District Fraction Buro ach. i le actions lp |? m ing through of Letter.
