5 CENTRAL LABOR BODY BACKS WO RKERS BILL IN HUNTINGTON, W.VA. Other OrganizationsAdd Endorsement to Move for Social Security HUNTINGTON, W. Va., Feb. 14. = The Huntington Central Labor Union, without a dissenting vote has endorsed the Workers’ Unemploy- ment, Old Age and Social Insurance Bill, H. R. 2827. Resolutions were sent to J. B. Easton, president of the State Fed- | eration of Labor and William Green, president of the American Federation of Labor requesting that they support H. R. 2827. Chairman Connery of the House Labor Com- mittee and Congressman Johnson were also notified of the Union’s Support of H. R. 2827. Another resolution was passed denouncing the miserable, anti-working class Wagner-Lewis Bill as inadequate to meets the needs on the unemployed | and sent to the various committees | at Washington. The Huntington Central Labor Union is composed of thirty-five A. F. of L. affiliated locals. Musicians Back Workers’ Bill NEW YORK. — Musicians Union Local 802 of the American Federa- tion of Labor, the largest musician’s union in the country, with a mem- bership of 15,500, endorsed the Workers Unemployment, Old Age and Social Insurance Bill, H. R. 7327, at their last membership meeting. The endorsement was made at the regular monthly meeting of the union, which was held in the Palm Gardens here. The membership unanimously voted support of the Workers’ Bill upon the recommen- dation of its unemployment com- mitte, which pointed out the ad- vantages which the Workers’ Bill contained for union labor. The committee compared the Workers’ Bill to the spurious Wagner-Lewis Bill, pointing out that the present unemployed would receive not one penny under the Roosevelt measure. Workers’ Bill in Michigan DETROIT, Mich., Feb. 14—Mem- bers of the Forgotten Men’s Club, Division 106, which was represented at the recent National Congress for Unemployment Insurance, suc- ceeded in introducing the State Workers Unemployment Insurance Bill into the State Legislature as House Bill 111, it was learned to- day. The State Workers’ Bill of Mich- igan, like the Federal Workers’ Bill, H. R. 2827, provides for the pay- ment of full average wages to all workers unemployed through no fault of their own. Except for the omission of the clause which specifically states that the funds shall be raised by direct taxation on incomes and inherit- ances above $5,000 a year, the State Bill, 111, is in all other respects analogous to the Federal Workers’ Bill. State Bill in Oregon SALEM, Ore., Feb. 14—The State Workers Unemployment Insurance Bill was introduced into the State legislature here, the ninth State to take such action.

Roosevelt is acting on the pretense of putting 3,500,000 unemploved to work. Roosevelt. proposes that the aver- age rates on the jobs shall be 38 cents an hour, and that the work- ers shall put in 130 hours a month. This means a reduction of fully 60 per cent in the scales of the build- ing trades workers. _ The Purpose of this attack on the building trades workers is two-fold: 1) It will bring down their scales and automatically reduce the scales in private industry. This is part of the program of the National Manufacturers Association and the U. S. Chamber of Commerce, the program which they presented to Roosevelt on Dec. 15. This is a smashing attack on the living con- ditions not only of the 2,000,000 building trades workers, but of the whole working class. Against Trade Unions 2) Tt is also an offensive against the trade unions.

Puro While increasing local struggles are going on for relief, forty-five representatives of various farm organizations headed by the Farmers National Committee for Action and the United Farmers League, have issued a preliminary call for the Farmers Emergency Relief Conference to take place in | ab the center of the drought area, ate— Sioux Falls, South Dakota, towards the end of March. | The call is issued to all farm or-| ganizations, all working farm people and to rural workers’, relief and un- employed organizations. Based upon the urgent needs of drought-stricken farmers and the, relief needs of ever growing number of farmers, this conference will unify and organize the mass fight for the immediate relief for farm families and livestock and the! struggle for production credit and seed, As the majority of the farm fami- lies are in urgent need of relief, and as on the other hand the relief is being constantly cut, an emergency conference has become an urgent necessity to save the farm families and the livestock from starvation. | The ruthless policy of Roosevelt's | the Communists, have very important tasks in connection with preparing this conference. all the need of an immediate pro- gram, around which this conference is called, have to be made clear to the largest number of poverty- stricken farmers. In order that this can be achieved, the Communists and other militant farmers must visit every possible farm and rural toilers' organization to familiarize them with the issues of the confer- | ence, to get their support for and | participation in this conference es- pecially in the great prairie states and the bordering areas.

William Green was content with an average wage of $50 a month or, to quote him, “even $49 a month,” provided the hourly scales were raised. He ,proposed in Senate Comfhittse that the scale be 59 cents an hour, but the hours be reduced to 84.7 a month. But the wages would remain the same, Thus it is not the pay envelope that concerns Green, but the hourly scale. The situation is one of the grav- est danger to the whole working class. The whole trade union move- ment is menaced. The wage stand- ards face destruction. Unity Proposals What is to be done? The Na- tional Unemployment Council calls upon the workers NOW ABOVE ALL TIMES to unite forces in the fight against the reduction of trade union standards, against the slash in_the wage scales all around. We propose: (1) When the un- employed are put on the jobs—and all able-bodied men now on relief will be compelled to accept jobs or be removed from the relief rolls— will receive a blow. The Russell amendment, which gives Roosevelt Main &t., Feb. 15 at 8 p.m. power to fix the wages (and he they immediately organize on the job and elect a job committer to take action, The National Unem- ployment Council will help the men organize, and will throw its whole organizational strength into this work. Then men should affiliate to the Unemployment Councils and thus be lined up with the fighting organization of the unemployed throughout the country. Demands We demand: Union rates on all jobs, with a guaranteed number of hours per week and per month to provide a decent standard of living. 2) The trade unions must be mo- bilized for the struggle. The only power that the workers have is their organized power and the right to strike that they take through this power, The unions must be enlisted no time to be lost. The National Unemployment Council in all locali- ties must immediately canvass all the unions—A, F. of L. and inde- pendent. They should pass resolu- tions condemning the government plan, send them to Roosevelt, Green, and their congressmen and senators. They should also send resolutions and delegations to the mayors and governors, for these gentlemen are using Roosevelt's de- cision to reduce scales in the cities and states. 3) Central labor councils should in this fight immediately. There is > be called upon to initiate confer- ences of all unions, unemployed and. fraternal organizations, etc., to mo- bilize the workers for a fight. If the central labor councils refuse. a union or groun of unions or the Unemployment Council should take the initiative. | Never was the Roosevelt admin- listration more cynical than now. Never did William Green talk “fight” so much. He is doing it because the workers will no longer be fooled by “new deal” talk. They are experiencing systematic attacks | on their conditions, the systematic | taking away of their right to or- ganize the unions. Organization and Struggle | Only one thing can help the, |tion and fight. We must prepare | |for widespread strikes on the relief jobs. Millions who are being de- nied relief will feel the pinch more | and more. Twelve million unem- | ployed are getting no relief. Mil- | |Hons of Negroes are discriminated | against even more viciously than | before. Farmers, white collar work- ers, professionals, young workers face desperation. We must act. To William Green, we say the} following: “You were rebuffed on| three issues: rates on the jobs; Sec- tion 7a; the 30-hour week. You talked about putting up a ‘hell of a fight.’” , Where is this fight, Mr. Green? The most ‘idesnreed publicity must be given to the Roosevelt pro- gram. Agitation, leaflets, meetings, demonsirations, resolutions — but also organization of conferences and above all, preparation for struggle. The unemployed not obtaining jobs must be mobilized to support these struggles. The united front of the whole working class, employed and unemployed, white and Negro, must be built on this issue. For Workers’ Bill And above all facing continuing lowering of our standard of living, with the number of unemployed in- workers in this situation: organiza- | creasing, we must carry on a most | militant campaign and struggle for the Worke:s Bill H.R. 2827. This is a basic issue that must be con- nected with this fight. Adequate cash relief for every worker without discrimination— union wages on the jobs, with a guaranteed number of hours per week and month — enactment of the Workers Unemployment, Old Age and Social Insurance Bill, R.
