a ILY WORKER W YORK, FRIDAY, N VEMBER 2, 1954 AMTER CLINCHES LEHMAN'S RESPONSIBILITY FOR AMBUSH SAYS GOVERNOR'S SHIFT OF WILL FOOL NO ONE POSITION Communist Candidate for Governor Reveals the Hypocrisy of Other Parties Which All Support Attacks on Jobless By I. Communist Candidate for Gcvernor of New York Governor Lehman yesterday stated in the press that he is willing to receive a delegation from the Unemployed Conference to enable them to present their demands. Leh- man has a very short memory. tack on the demands presented to him by tion Conference in New York City®-— a few weeks ago, and his refusal to be in Albany on Nov. 1, which was the first step in the mobiliza- tion of the police against the Un- employed Conference in Albany. ‘The mass struggle of the delegation from all parts of the state, which were not terrorized by the open fascist methods of the authorities, has forced Lehman to shift his position. After refusing comment on the situation in Albany, characterizing it as “a local matter,” Lehman admits now that he is in close | telephone contact with Albany, with the Mayor, Chief of Police, etc. Support given the fighting unemployed by the workers, unem- ployed, veterans, farmers, liberals and church people throughout the state and country, and the wide- spread, nationwide resentment against the fascist New Deal, ex- pressed through this attack, has compélled Lehman to resort to maneuvers. He hopes that the Democratic Party will not too great losses in the coming elec- tion. His hypocritical “interest” in the 2,100,000 unemployed of New York will fool nobody. Moses hopes to capitalize on the | situation to gain support for the Republican Party, but the Repub- lican Party has nothing to offer the unemployed but a sales tax. Charles Solomon, whose patty consistently refuses a united front with the Communists, and is not participating in this struggle of the unemployed, “protests” against Police brutality, while his col- leagues, the Socialist Mayors of Bridgeport and Milwaukee, use similar fascist methods against the unemployed of those cities. Only the Communist Party fully supports, actively participates in the struggle of the unemployed, for the program of the Commu- | nist Party are the demands of the unemployed which the Communists put in the forefront of their pro- gram of struggle. Workers of New York, the New Deal is in action against the workers of New York. Roosevelt- Lehman, Hoover-Moses, represent our enemies.

No lawyer could be found for two | white seamen arrested for distriou- | ting leafiets but, Wright said, “the | bosses have also taught law to a few Negroes and one of these stepped lin to take up the work of defending | | the seamen. “The lynch bosses don’t want a Negro lawyer to defend a white worker. This is too much like solidarity. But they were even more displeased when they discovered] that two Negroes had supplied bail for the arrested white seamen.” | A few days later, Wright reported, |a delegation of Negro and white seamen, for the first time in the history of Norfolk, visited relief offi- cials and demanded help for the striking seamen and won their | demand. | Grafter Expelled NORFOLK, Va., Nov. 1.—George W. Milner, third vice president of the International Longshoremen’s | Association, and four others, were jexpelled from I. L. A. local 978 for \stealing money or being responsible for stealing it. The others were David Alston, Eddie Green and J. M. Gallop and H. Smith, all ex- officers of the local. The books of Police bn Vote Communist. - these men were audited by a certi- fied accountant and found to be $5,- 754.48 short. The case has been dragged out for over a year after the local put the matter in the hands of a lawyer. On Oct. 5 the local called a meeting and suspended the officers, A week later they were expelled. The I. L. A. Rank and File Com- mittee declares, “the vote for sus- pension was sixty to eleven, and for expulsion the vote was 103 to 8. Bridgeport Police Jail Three More (Special to the Daily Worker) BRIDGEPORT, Conn., Noy. 1.— Dave Kaplan, Jean Mureika and Katherine Zemaitis were arrested yesterday for distributing Commu- nist election leaflets on the streets. The signal for a drive to keep Com- munist literature off the streets was given by Socialist Mayor Jas- per McLevy a few days ago when, after a conference with Police Chief Wheeler, he announced that police would enforce the ordinance against “littering streets.” ‘The Communist Party of Bridge- port has called upon its supporters to break this anti-working class measure by making a wide dis— tribution of Communist election literature all over the city. The trial of the three arrested workers was continued for two weeks, until after the election. The case of seven workers who were arrested last Friday night at an anti-Nazi demonstration will come up for trial on Saturday morning, including that of David Kaplan, Young Communist League organizer who were arrested last Saturday in City Court and charged with breach of the peace for participating in the demon- stration of the night before. Two Election Parades To Be Held in Brooklyn Tonight in C. P. Drive Working class supporters of the Communist Party election platform and candidates will hold two pa- rades tonight through the streets of Brooklyn in the largest neigh- borhood demonstrations of the campaign. The parade will start at Berri- man and Sutter Avenues at 7 p. m. Another group of marchers will form at the same time at Sutter and Pennsylvania Avenues. Joseph Gilbert, candidate in the 28rd A. D.. Jack Rosenberg, nominee in the 22nd A. D. and Daniel Trupin, can- didate for Municipal Court Judge will speak at the rally which will mark the end of the parade. The Young Communist League of Section 17 will hold a parade and rally tonight starting at 21st Ave- nue and 86th Street in Bath Beach and returning to the same inter- section after pursuing a oircui- Meng route through the neighbor- afternoon at West Houston and Mr. Millner then sneaked into local 1248 of the I. L. A. and he hangs | around the hall all day attacking locals 978 and 1221 and the Com- munists, He has sent his agent Mr. Anderson into I. L. A. and Marine Workers Industrial Union meetings to spy on the workers. Miliner raises the red scare to hide the fact that he stole the union money, He played a sell out role in local 1221, and is responsible for the con-lition of the men at Sewell’s Point, where they only made $98 per man for the year 1933. He helped Joseph Ryan, I. L. A. president, put over a ten per cent pay cut, Millner of- fered to furnish scabs for the bosses last May when the docks struck under the leadership of the M. W. I. U. It was not only tae Communist, who kicked Millner out, as the vote shows, but all the long- shoremen regardless of political belief. “The Communist Party, support- ing the fight of the I. L, A. members warns local 1248 that Millner is not hanging around the hall for any good. He is maneuvering to get hold of the job of business manager, which will pay him $35 a week. We ask local 1248 to follow the ex- ample of local 1221 and 978 and kick him out of the local and out of Hampton Roads.” Majestic Metal Shop Workers Will Hold Election Rally Today Margaret Cowl, Communist can- didate for State Senator in the 12th District, and Henry Forbes, Com- munist candidate for Congressman in the 13th District, will speak at an election rally to be held this Varick Streets. This rally is being arranged by the Communist work- ers in the jestic Metal Shop, for the purpose of bringing the Com- munist program to the hundreds of workers in the Majestic shop and neatby light metal shops. Cowl has addressed the workers of this shop on a number of occasions in connection with their successful struggles for better conditions. Forbes is the organizer of the Down- town Unemployment Council. 7 Children At Eviction Flee Without Making Eviction | PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Nov. 1—| Workers mobilized by the Unem- ployment Council are hourly guard- ing the home of John Sutko, an) unemployed worker living at 4513) North Sixteenth Street, after the | constable and eight police hurled tear gas into the house last Mon- day and gassed seven children in an attempt to evict the family. A number of attempts had been made to evict Sutko; each attempt being frus‘rated by the workers who massed before the home. At 7/ o'clock Monday morning the con-| stable and eight police battered down the door, hurled tear gas bombs inside, and, fearing the anger of the neighbors, quickly retreated. A two-year-old child was madé un- conscious, and Sutko’s six other children were blinded and sickened by the gas. A workers’ delegation elected at @ mass meeting before the home protested this heinous attack at the City Council and the office of the | Police Chief, demanding the imme- diate provision of the reliéf de-| mands presented by the workers at | the mass meeting before the City | Hall on Oct. 20. These demands, fully supported by the Unemploy- ment Councils, call for union wages and conditions on the relief jobs, | doubling of the present relief, no | discrimination, no evictions, and | enactment of the Workers’ Unem- | ployment Insurance Bill.

At Philadelphia Council PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Nov. 1—| Unemployed seamen will meet here | tonight: at the Waterfront Unem- | ployment Council, 312 South Second St. at which Transient Relief Ad- ministrator Huckby has been asked to appear to answer the charges of the seamen’s relief grievances, | A meeting was held here Tuesday, a committee of fifty seamen wete elected to place their relief demands | before Huckby.

The students booed a fas- cist heckler out of the meeting hall when he tried to interrupt Comrade Burlak, and praised Hitler. The lying boss press reported next day that the students had booed Burlak. WIN UNION RECOGNITION AKRON, Ohio (F.P.).—Union rec- ognition has been won at the Rob- inson Clay Products Co. of Akron. Wave of Prote At Albany Attacks Cops,FearingNeighbors, Floods Gov. Lehma A mounting wave of protests swept countless telegrams into the office of Governor Lehman at Albany yesterday. Forty residents of ‘Troy sent a collective protest; ten Albany ministe-s joined with Rev. George A. Oldham, Protestant Episcopal Bishop of Albany in his protest to Mayor Thatcher and in a demand for a thorough investigation. The American Civil Liberties Union also filed official protests to the police actions. The editors of The Monthly Review, a representative publication of the professional and white collar workers, sent a telegram to Lehman at his New York home protesting the “brutal denial of constitutional rights” and demanding “release of arrested persons and insist you an- nounce willingness to receive un- employed delegation.” Echoes of the police attack re- sounded in Philadelphia as work- ers’ groups besieged Lehman with protests. Jennie Cooper, Secretary and Norris Wood, chairman of the Eastern District Unemployment Councils sent telegrams in the name of the Councils demanding the re- lease of all arrested mprchers and that Lehman immediately meet with the unemployed delegates. Engineers Protest From the Macy Department Store the Office Workers Union lodge protests. The Federation of Archi- tects, Engineers, Chemists and Technicians, in the name of its 3,000 members, and in support of the marchers, two of whom repre- sented the Federation, protested vigorously. The City Central Committee of the International Workers Order, as well as countless numbers of its branches, sent vigorous protests in the name of its 20,000 members in New York State. A number of the delegates were members of the In- ternational Workers Order. The Organization Board of the Nature Friends of America, Unem- ployment Council locals, groups of relief workers on the projects, white- collar workers, Communist Party and Young Communist League Units, Branches of the International Labor Defense and numerous trade unions added their protests in the Hearing Seen As Vote Move 7] Jones and Laughlin Case Put Off Until After Election By TOM KEENAN wires which yesterday swamped the executive mansion in Albany. | Repercussions in Capital | Repercussions were felt in Wash-| PITTSBURGH, Pa., Nov. 1—Be- ington as George Clark, Albany di- | Cause of Election Day, Noy. 6, the , National Steel Labor Relations rector of the Sta'e Emergency Re- | lief Administration declared tha‘|20erd has now put over its final after a telephone conversation with | Stall in the hearing of union com~- |the FERA, he was instructed to|Plaints against the Jones and make a full report of the police at-| Laughlin Steel Co. in Aliquippa— tack on the bridge. the case being postponed now until Seeking to make political capital | Nov. 8.

The drought relief program, heralded at its in- ception as a program to grant $500,000,000 relief to the farmers, has spent less than fifty million dol- lars. Federal Relief Administrator Hop- kins’ office gave out a report which they received from Denver police. They said it explained that “only 22 out of the 5,000 people on work relief in Denver s‘ruck.” They “didn’t know” how many of the several hundred picketers who were attacked were relief workers from Arapahoe County. The police also reported that “ten relief workers from Arapahoe County were ar- rested.” Of these “nine didn’t amount to anything and one was a ‘paid agitator.’” This, apparently, was the basis for the press associa- tion’s description of the demonstta- ting relief workers as “strike agita- Officiais here said they didn’t know the meaning of the po- lice designations, but “presumed” it meant that the one was a Commu- nist, the others not.

BROWN There is no industrial center to- day, large or small, where strikes do not constantly break out. The masses of employed workers feel a sharp tightening of the chains of the N. R. A. codes, feel more and more the increasing burden ‘of rising prices. The masses of un- employed all over the country are extending their struggle against re- lief cuts, for adequate winter relief. The poor farmers feel the crushing effects of the A. A. A. and are gathering their forces for more determined struggle for their needs. A powerful united front movement is being built between the employed and the unemployed around the struggle for unemployment and so- cial insurance, against the growing danger of Fascism and imperialist war. No truce, no maneuvers no con- centration camps, no fascist reaction will stop the masses in their struggles for a better standard of living. The approaching winter will bring even more suffering to the toiling masses, still higher prices and greater unemployment as already indicated by the figures of the Department of Labor and the American Federation of Labor, more misery for the poor farmers. Yet the government and the bosses have in store for the employed workers new slashes in wages; for the unemployed, a slash in relief. The trend is to lower the standard of living of the masses as the capitalist class thirsts for more profits. The 20 per cent increase in profits for the Wall St. monop- olies since Roosevelt’s New Deal came into effect, in a period when millions are in a state of semi- starvation, has not been enough for the capitalist vampires. Struggles Growing The situation is leading to new, larger struggles in the near future. The toiling masses understand more and more that there must be better coordination of their struggles as Well as greater unity, and realize the need of developing leadership out of their ranks. The struggles of the past year, especially, have shown to the masses in the most glaring manner that the A. F. of L, leadership heads straight to betrayals, chaining the masses to the will of the bosses and their government. The idea of rank and file leadership, of work- ers’ democracy within the A. F. of L. unions is taking root among the workers. Ever more clearly, on the basis of their own experiences, the masses are gaining a better under- standing of the role of the Com- munist Party. The “red scare” is becoming a double-edged weapon, splitting wide open the program of the reactionaries and revealing their true character. The threaten- ing expulsion of Communists from the A. F. of L. unions makes masses of workers realize the role of the A. F. of L. officials who seek to eliminate from the ranks of the A. F. of L. the most militant fighters. Today, more than ever before, the extent, power, and results of the struggles of the masses will depend on the ability of our Party to become a factor in determining their course. And one of the pre-requisites for making our Party a powerful instrument able to lead the masses in their daily struggles and in the struggle for power, is to forge stronger cdnnections between the Party and the toiling masses; stronger connections in the work- shops and mines, in the trade unions, in the mass organizations —unemployed, fraternal, farmers, cooperatives, cultural—which em- brace millions. To accomplish this we must orientate the individual Party members to intensify their activities in their places of work and mass organizations, to greatly increase the recruiting of workers into the Party. It is only in this way that we will strengthen our ties with the masses everywhere. This is the orientation given by the Central Committee in its letter to the Party members on the recruit- ing drive. The successful carrying out of this line will help us to lead the impend- ing struggles for the daily needs of the masses, to prevent the betrayals by the reformist leaders, to turn the A. F. of L. unions, fraternal or- ganizations, farmers’ organizations, cooperative organizations and others, which in the hands of reac- tionary leadership are utilized as tools to help capitalism in its fran- tic efforts to get out of the crisis at the expense of the masses, into instruments of struggle of the masses against their oppressors, against capitalism. Everywhere the masses must strive for workers’ democracy in their organizations, for rank and file leadetship. This implies the building of a powerful opposition to Masses October Revolution Anniversary Made Recruiting Day the reactionary leaders as the only way that will bring about the trans- formation of the organizations from tools serving capitalism into instruments of class struggle. In turn, the building of the opposition requires the strengthening of the Party in the organizations as the driving force of the opposition. Militant workers understand this well. And those who realize the need of developing a rank and file leadership and opposition movement. in the mass organizations will 8:30, Stelton, N. J. Detroit, Mich.
