Page 4 DAILY WORKER, NEW YORK, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 1934 UNION MEMBERS URGED TO SUPPORT ANTI-WAR CONFERENCE DELEGATES TO MAP Hopkins Lauds Milliner FIGHT ON FASCISM Private Aid AND WAR, NOV. 24 Trade Union Unity ( Affiliated Organ ‘touncil Issues Call izations to Elect Representatives to Parley An urgent appeal was Union Unity Council of trade unions, regardless gates to the Conference been called for 1 p.m. Saturday, Nov. Hall, Fifteenth Street and Irving + Place. The T. U. U. C. is composzd of numerous trade unions affiliated with it, with an aggregate member- ship of between forty and fifty thousand workers, according to An- drew Overgaard, general secretary of the council. T. U. U. L. Appeal “This conference,” the states, “which is called by the American League Against War and || Fascism, takes place at a time when the world is fast moving toward im- |j perialist war, and fascism is raising its ugly head in the United States. “In Toledo, San Francisco, and Minneapolis, workers were shot down and clubbed in cold blood for organizing and striking for better working conditions. Right under our noses in New York, shipments of ammunition go out daily. The fascist terror, which is part of the war preparations is particularly di- | rected against the trade unions, es- pecially the unions under militant leadership. Bring Issue to Shops “The American League Against War and Fascism calls upon the entire working class, regardless of political affiliation, regardless of trade union affiliation, to unite in a powerful movement against war and fascism. ny “The Trade Union Unity Council, wishes particularly to call on our} own affiliated unions, at this time, to popularize this conference, bring | it into the shops, immediately elect | delegates and set up committees in the shops that will become active! in the building up of the League, and carry through the program adopted at the great Second U. S. Congress Against War and Fascism held in Chicago this year.” “At the same time, Overgaard stated, “we wish to appeal to the Independent Unions not repre-| senied at the Chicago Congress, to elect delegates to this conference in New York. However, in all serious- nets, we wish to point out to our) affiliated unions the need for real preparatory work ‘and, the need for the leadership of each union to take responsibility for participation in the League for. immediate affilia- tion, as well as the payment of the affilidtion fee.” “The American League Against War and Fascism,” the appeal con- | cluded, “can become a powerful in- | strument in the fight against war) makers and against the fascist ter- | Tor, particularly in the trade move- ment in New York, if we .ake seri- | ously the building of this orzaniva- tion, which already has a tremen- dous influence in the United States. “The T. U. U. C. therefore appeals to its affiliated organizations, that in all meetings during the coming |ousing Board, to thrash out the | weeks, the question of the New York Conference called by the League is taken in all seriousness, and that delegates are elected who will take a responsible part in car- rying through the program pledged at the Second Congress. “The American League has mailed out thousands of calls and we urge that immediate response be given to this urgent matter.” Bronx Meeting Wires Protest On Scottsboro At a Scottsboro rally held under the joint auspices of the Modern Thought Center, West Bronx Youth League and the Morris Branch of the American League Against War and Fascism on Friday night, the following telegram was adopted and Sent to President Roosevelt: “Two hundred workers, at the Modern Thought Center, 1300 Walton Avenue, New York, on Nov. 9, 1934, to protest the con- tinued imprisonment of the nine imnocent Scottsboro boys and de- Mand their immediate, safe and unconditional release. We hold you responsible for their safety.” Richard B. Moore, National Field Organizer of the International Le- bor Defense, told of the efforts of Samuel S. Leibowitz, renegade de- fense attorney; William H. Davis, Rey. King and other Harlem Negro misleaders, to disrupt the defense, and of the reputation of Leibowitz and his gang by the Scottsboro boys and their mothers. The audience contributed $16.75 to the Scottsboro appeal fund of the LL. D. Are workers too poor to con- tribute to the Daily Worker? The excuse is often made that this is 80, But letters to the Daily Worker show otherwise, Unemployed work- ers have sent their last pennies, smali-salaried workers and work- ers on relief have given a day’s Wages to save the life of the greatest weapon of unemployed and employed workers alike.

Y. ! Daily Worker. Dear Comrades: The main function of account- ants under the capitalist system | is to show to the exploiting class how to squeeze out more profits from the working class. Aftei” the profits have been squeezed out, the accountant has to be the “watch dog” of the money bag. For this service he gets a “fee” | which is a very small fraction of what has been stolen from labor. Only in the Soviet Union does an accountant perform an hon- orable and socially useful service. By his skill and professional knowledge he helps not the few at the expense of the many, but he serves the entire population. By showing how to reduce costs, eliminate waste, the workers, farmers and entire population get the benefit in the form of shorter hours, higher standard of living, social security and cul- tural benefits. It is from this point of view that I,’as an accountant, feel so- cially inferior to the workers who create values under the cap- italist regime, do socially useful service, as doctors, engineers, ar- chitects, etc. To appease my guilty con- science, I give back some of that surplus profit to the working class in the form of Party dues, contributions, etc. Today I have made a few ex- tra dollars, and here is a five dollar bill towards the Daily Worker drive. I feel better now. Yours for a Soviet America, L, 8. R. Rent Strikers to Give Report At Hearing Darwin R. James and Aaron Rabinowitz, represonting the State Housing Board, will meet with rep- resentatives of the Fred F, French Co, and the Knickerbocker Village | Tenants Association, today at 1:30 p.m. at the offices of the State differences between the 800 tenants land the management. | The tenants of the new housing project are asking for the abate- ment of one month’s rent on the ground that the buildings were not | completed when they moved in, and they have been subjected to much |inconvenience and added expense | due to the unfinished condition of | the apartments, Joseph P. Selly, president of the Knickerbocker Village Tenants As- sociation, said: “The tenants of Knickerbocker Village are prepared to prove the justice of their claims by conclusive evidence that the Fred F. French Co. has not lived up to | their obligations to the tenants. The | State Housing Board has a definite | responsibility in this matter. The statute under which the Fred F. | French Co. was enabled to borrow over $8,000,000 for the construction of Knickerbocker Village, set the Housing Board up as the guardians | of the tenants’ rights. This is a mat- | ter involving not only the tenants jof Knickerbocker Village, but the |entire future of model housing in | this state.” | The results of the conference to- |day will be made known to the tenants at an open hearing the K.V.T.A. has called for tonight at P. S. 177, Market and Monroe F, French Oo, and the State Hous- ing Board are being invited to at- tend and present their side of the controversy. A Bronx Workers Urged To Pack Court at Trial of Jobless Men Today local of the Unemployment Council, jlocated at 1447 Charlotte Street, yesterday again appealed to all | Workers to pack the courtroom at the trial of David Morgenstein. | Morganstein, an unemployed work- er, is being prosecuted by the Home Relief Bureau on charges of ac- cepting relief while holding a job. at 9 am. at the Special Session Court, sixth floor, Grand Concourse and 161st Street.

At the same} time, his speech was the sounding keynote in the n de drive f support of the private aid and wel- wi ks program for mere sub-} wages in line with the in-| creasing forced labor turn of the works projects throughout the; country, was evisioned in Hopkins’ speech, which echoed the usual plat- | itudes of the Roosevelt promises for} |old age, health and unemployment |and social insurance. | Lauds Administration | Replying to charges of “shameless |waste of relief funds” made two ‘days pervious by Senator Borah in Washington, Hopkins lauded his re- |lief administration, saying: “No| New York’s present low place in |amount of resentment on the part) the drive.

E. R. A. relief admin- istration is turning to—forced labor for subsistence — Hopkins said: “A| method must and will be found to} provide a way of life for millions| of these people that will assure them the opportunity for earning an income which will provide a de- |cent American standard of living.” Would Make Jobless Pay Under a system of unemployment insurance envisioned by Hopkins in his radio address, he broadly hinted as to what form administra- tion plans would take, a form pro- viding compulsory contribution by | the employed with large-scale forced |labor projects for the millions of| | unemployed. | “Unemployment Insurance, old }age and sickness benefits, care of children have been provided in al- most every civilized country in the world,” he said. “To say that our industrial system cannot provide for this security is, indeed, to admit de- feat. A very modest proportion of | the total national income would| sive this security.” | Hopkins’ speech, given as it was at the launching of a drive of pri- vate charity enterprises, follows) closely upon similar broadcasts by} Roosevelt and Newton D. Bak chairman of the “1934 Mobilization for Human Needs,” and other high-} pressure drives to obtain private re-| lief funds which strap the burden| of relief costs more firmly upon the} backs of the working population. | Jobs and Pay Drop Sharply | In N.Y. State | ALBANY, Nov. 12—Sharp drops in employment in almost every in- dustry in the State during the one- month period from mid-September to mid-October, are reported in the statement issued today by the State Department of Labor. While the computations of the State Department of Labor show a net gain of 0.8 per cent, the in- clusion of the army of textile workers returning to work during the period reported upon, are really accountable for that apparent gain. Thus while the comparison is with that month’s average included the strike in textile, The analysis, computed monthly, is based on the returns from 1,731 representative factories reporting. The reporting factories employed 360,200 persons in October, and are indicative of the trends in wages and employment throughout the State. Metal trades showed a net job | loss of 14 per cent during the period recorded as compared with the entire month of September. Large decreases occurred in auto- mobile and shipbuilding and repair concerns. In the men’s clothing |trades a 7 per cent drop in the number of jobs was noted. That the return of the textile putations of the returns is noted by drops in all up-State industrial |centers reporting, except Utica, the only large textile center in the State. ‘Pocketbook Workers To Discuss Elections | The question of the approaching jelections in the International | Pocketbook Workers Union, A.

If he quarrelled, I would let him rave, and go to the meetings.” This was part of one} letter received from a Brooklyn woman this week by the Contest Judges of the Working Woman magazine. The letter was in re- | sponse to a contest, details of which were printed in the November issue of the Working Woman. The con- |test was started by the letter of a woman who asked for advice on what to do in order to attend work- ing class meetings, since her nus- band won’t let her. In the first week of the contest, great interest has been evidenced by letters com- ing daily to the Working Woman office from working-class wives and mothers throughout the country. “If I had to stay home,” says one | woman, “I would use these very conditions, Iwould invite other housewives and single women and organize a permanent woman’s |group. I would use my husband’s | hobby, by getting in touch with the |nearest party unit, and getting them to assign a member to approach him from the angle of his hobby, for instance, a chess player, or one in- terested in dramatics.” “Bring your literature home with you,” says one woman, | “From being backward, my hus- |band has gone way ahead of me. He demands that my first allegiance jbe paid to the working-class.” | The contest will be closed mid- |night, January 25, 1935. Letters must reach the Contest Editor, Working Woman, 50 East 13th Street, New York, by that time. Sixteen prizes are offered for the best letters, in- cluding a Westinghouse electric iron, with adjustable heat, a ham- \per of White Rose food, year and |half year subs to various publica- tions, and an initiation and three months’ dues payment to the Inver- |national Workers Order, should win- ner of this prize wish to join. The \flow of letters indicate that the ;question raised by the woman who |wrote the first letter, is a vital one jin the lives of working-class women. Roosevelt Acts to Aid _ Big Railroads WASHINGTON, Nov. 12.—Active assistance by the Roosevelt govern- ment in a new drive to reduce wages and operating expenses on the railroads was foreshadowed by a statement made by R.

Five large railroads are in de- fault in interest and principal pay- ments on loans totalling $55,000,000 |made by the Roosevelt government | to the roads, Jones revealed. The Roosevelt government pro- poses to conduct a survey to deter- mine how to aid these roads to re- sume dividend payments and loan |returns, Jones declared. | One road, the Missouri Pacific, owes the government $23,000,000, | loaned it by the R.

U. S. Bombing Planes Near Soviet China SHANGHAI, Nov. 12—For the second time in a month, the Kuo- mintang government has announced it has captured Jukin, former cap- ital of the Central Chinese Soviet Republic. The first time the Kuo- min, Kuomintang News Agency, announced the capture of Juikin was on Oct. 15. The fact of the matter is, the Red Army has been evacuating Juikin for some time now, due to the heavy concentration of American bombing planes in the vicinity. The man bulk of the army has been moving south- ward for a drive against the forces of General Chen Chi Tang of Kwantung province. A section of the Red. Army is marching through Hunan province on its way to join the Red Army in Szechuan, the ex- treme western province of China, where the Red Army has been gain- ing victory after victory. Chiang Kai-shek is announcing the “capture” of Juikin as a “com- plete victory” over the Communist forces, But this estimate is made mainly for outside consumption, as it is known in China that the Chinese Soviets, despite retreats in Fukien and Kiangsi provinces, have been gaining more territory and strengthening their forces in other places, particularly in Szechuan. “How long,” Unit 7 wants to know, “will the other units in Sec. 8 (Dist. 2) remain asleep?” Unit 7 has already contributed $119.07 to the $60,000 fund! Perigaud Will Speak at Rally On Thursday Louis Perigaud, French Socialist and Secretary of the World Com- mittee Against War and Fascism, | let will speak on the present acute sit- uation in France at a mass meeting arranged by the French Workers’ Club, “Clarte,” this Thursday eve- ning, 8:30 o'clock, at the Amalga- mated Hall, 915 Eighth Ave., be- tween 54th and 55th Sts. Perigaud will be followed by other eminent speakers and the showing of the talking picture “Comradeship,” which has created @ sensation in Paris, Berlin, Lon- don and many other cities. Perigaud’s address is of the ut- most significance in view of the im- pending class struggles in France between the fascist gangs, supported by the government, and the united front of Socialist, Communist and non-party workers, and the attempt of the French fascist group, “Croix de Feux,” the instigators of tho bloody events of Feb. 10 in Paris, to spread its influence among the French population in this city. A newly organized local branch of the “Croix de Feux” only recently held a meeting at the Seamen’s House at 20th St. and 11th Ave, The meetii was invaded by French workers o} the “Clarte,” who distributed anti- fascist leaflets, and called upon those present to reject the fascist propaganda. Foreign Policy To Be Exposed By Waldman “The Foreign Policy of the Roose- velt Administration” will be dis- cussed Friday night at 8:15 o’clock by Seymour Waldman, Washington correspondent of the Daily Worker. Waldman, who attends the regular press conferences of President Roosevelt, is in a position to point out many facts that the capitalist press sees fit not to print. He will show how the foreign policy of the United States is a pol- icy of preparation for war. The re- lationship of the present adminis- tration to the Soviet Union will also be discussed. This lecture is under the auspices of the Workers’ Book Shop at 60 East 13th Street, and will be held at Irving Plaza, Irving Place and East 15th Street. Admission at the door is 35 cents, in advance 25 cents. Free tickets can be obtained by the purchase at any Workers’ Book Shop of $1 worth of pamphlets. Discussion on Fascism and War To Be Held in Harlem Tonight Unit 418 of the Communist Party, Harlem Section, is holding an open forum on War and Fascism this evening at the Finnish Workers Hall, 15 West 126th St., Room B. ‘The discussion will be led by Rose Rayside, delegate to the Paris World Congress Against War and Fascism; and Michael Burd, secretary of the Anti-Nazi Federation.
