The New Drive Of Wall Street AN EDITORIAL The program of finance cap- | ital of cutting down on relief | to the unemployed is being) rushed through even before) he opening of Congress. | ?resident Roosevelt, represen- tative of the monopolies, is rapidly carrying through the program laid down for him by the White Sulphur Springs conference of the employers. | Already, it has been an-| nounced by Federal Relief Administrator Hopkins, fol-| lowing a conference with | Roosevelt, that he has sent in-| structions that beginning Feb. | 1, “unemployables” are to be taken off federal relief and| dumped on the localities. Of the nineteen million persons now on relief, Hopkins said, four million will be taken off | federal relief by that time. The rest will be put on “work relief.” President Roosevelt, even before Congress opens, is inaugurating forced labor as! che only method of federal re- | ief. | Roosevelt, it is announced, has not decided the amount to be put in the budget for this work relief. But the inter- views given by Hopkins and} Ickes, on behalf of Roosevelt, | show that Roosevelt is bent} on cutting down drastically on | the amount of relief per per- son as well as chopping mil- lions off the relief lists en-, tirely. | The Roosevelt spokesmen | stress “economy,” they stress “balancing the budget.” As) Hearst’s New York American | put it yesterday in a Wash-| ington dispatch: “Administra- tion leaders pointed out to- ‘night there would be a marked trend toward eventual balancing of the budget through reduction of dole ex-; penditures. .. . The President, | it was learned, is determined | that all financial policies de- veloped during the coming) Congress must be on the side! of economy. It is understood the President at today’s con- ference finally approved the. budget for the next fiscal year.

Sergei Kirov hand-in-hand with White Guard fascist groups: “The indictment in the case of the White Guard terrorist assassination of Sergei Kirov is a menacing ac- cusatory document, not only with regard to the mortal enemies of the masses who killed the proletarian | tribune but also against the real} inspirers of their ideas: The work- ers of the Soviet country, and also of the whole world, now know that the organization of the White Guard terrorists in Leningrad was composed of the members of the Zinoviev anti-Soviet group, that the | platform of the Trotskyite-Zinoviev | block formed the ideological baggage of this band of murderers, Indictment Names Plotters “The indictment gives the names of those who directly organized and executed Kirov’s assassination.

Richberg, executive director of the National Emergency Council, y urged business men here to consider the problems of relief “realistically” on the ground that the cost of present relief is less than the cost of armies which otherwise would be necessary to hold the starving jobless in check. The reference to the use of force end of Richberg’s speech where he was justifying to the assembled manufacturers and government of- ficials the Roosevelt policy of treat- ing the relief problem through work relief. “Perhaps it might be cheaper even in a money sense,” Richberg stated, “to find work for these idle hands than to support the armies neces- sary to hold them back if once these millions of pleading fingers turned into threatening claws.” Continuing this idea, Richberg said, “The gravest dangers that threaten America are those of in- ternal dissension.” PUBLISHERS CALL PARLEY Against Right to Join Unions The Newspaper Publishers Asso- ciation in an attempt to head off the | organization of editorial workers into the American Newspaper Guild, ageinst the jobless came toward the | Move Is, Part of.

During each of these years we have added about 500,000 new workers to the lists of the unemployed.” Richberj. gave figures on relief rolls that re contradicted by the latest staté ents of Harry L. Hop- kins, reliet administrator, saying that “the failure of the relief rolls to increase substantially in Octo- ber, November and December, is the most heartening indication of a per- manent gain in employment.” Hop- kins’ figures, released yesterday, show an increase of over 120,000 to the Federal relief rolls October to November alone.

The Wall Street Journal of Dec. 28 states: “Mr, Hopkins expressed the hopes that sales taxes and other special levies would provide more funds for local relief purposes in the fu- ture.” The sales tax is advo- cated by Roosevelt because it places the burdens of relief on | the workers and farmers, and | saves the pockets of the em- ployers. Federal unemploy- ment insurance is denied in their treachery? The White Guard vermin, who penetrated the corridors of Smolny Institute (where Kirov was assassinated) in order to deal a blow at one of the noblest, most loyal and bravest sons of the proletariat, will not remain unpunished. Thou- sands of meetings and assemblies of the working masses throughout the whole country unanimously de- mand the shooting of all the organ- izers and executors of this abom- inable crime, to the very last one. There is no place in the land of the Soviets for such damned traitors! Let the dregs and the scum of the White Guard bands, both without and within the country know, let the hired hack-writers of the fascist order to keep war funds and) bankers’ profits intact. The National Congress for Unemployment Insurance, which meets in Washington on Jan. 5, 6 and 7, will serve as the national rallying cen- ter to mobilize the broad masses of the employed and unemployed workers to pre- vent Roosevelt from carrying through the bankers’ program of relief cuts. The broadest united front of the workers and farmers should give the utmost sup- port to this Congress and its program, in order to stay Roosevelt’s hand, to stop re- lief cuts, and to win unem- ployment insurance for more than twenty million starving workers, farmers and their families. press, who raised a howl in defense of the White Guard terrorists, kno’ The | An end to talk, gentlemen!

Gallagher charged the. prosecu- tion with placing stool pigeons in the cells of both the woman and men defendants, and in planting Mrs. Rose on the jury.

The “resignation” of Darre was long put off for tactical reasons.
