JODLESS FLOCK
TO GARY MILLS
SEEKING WORK
o-Thirds of STE |
Employees Laid OFF
BY KARL REEVE.
(Staff Writer, Daily Worker.l


Gary, Indiana, Aug. 12.-Over
tWo-thirds of the force of the
Gary works Of the United States
Steel Corporation have been
laid off and those kept on the
payroll are only allowed to work
two and three days a week. The
town is overrun with unem-
ployed who have migrated from
Chicago and other cities looking
for work. Residents of Gary
who have been laid off are ex-
tending their credit to the limit
and vainly searching for work.
1t was admitted even at the
Office of Mayor r. o. Johnson
that unemployment in Gary is
widespread. The business men
and petty officials Of the town
are hoping against hope that
work will soon pick up. The
Post-Tribune, the only paper in
Gary and practically a house
organ of the steel corporation,
is running front page stories
almost daily attempting to fool
the public as to conditions in
the steel mills.
The only authority the Steel Trust
paper could find to create the impress
sion that unemployment is diminish
ing is the street car company, which
declares that the number OF passen-
gers is increasing. The Post-Tribune,
which the steel workers have nick
named the DAILY Cesspool," inter-
prets the street car companies in
reased traffic to mean that unem-
,loyment is decreasing. The unem-
lloyed riding out to the mills looking
,or work, however, form a large part
Of the street car traffic.
On July 81, the untitled orders of
the United States Steel Corporation
amounted to 3,1S7072 tons. against
3,262,505 tons on June 30, showing a
decline in untitled orders of 75.433 tons
during July. Further decreases in
production of steel are expected in
financial circles.
In May the untitled orders OF the
United States Steel Corporation fell
off $50, 400 tons, and in June further
decrease OF 365,434 tons was recorded.
The Duluth Works Of the United
States Steel Corporation, which are
even larger than the Gary works,
have completely shut down.

AS WE SEE 1T

THE path of the reactionary labor
1 leader is not strewn with thorns.
Banquets, junketing trips, large salar-

rewards of fealty to capitalism. Jails

STRIKERS ARE
Winning fight
in HEGEWISCH
EUen Small Business
Men Back Workers

The carbuiIders in the Ryan
Car company, of Hegewisch,
adjoining the struck Western
Steel Car company, went on
strike yesterday, closing down
the Ryan shops completely.
The men walked out when
the company discharged some
of the force and tried to get the
carbuilders to do double work.
The Ryan strikers will be invited
to attend the strike meeting of the
Western Steel Car company this
morning.
Foremen Join Strikers.
Some of the bosses in the Western
car shop joined the strikers today
when the company officials ordered
them to get out in the yards and drive
rivets. They refused and walked out.
Production is completely stopped in
the Western company. Over 100000
dollars worths of material has been
prepared by the production depart
ment for assembling, and is now rust
ing in the yards.
Everyone observing the strike
makes the same statement that was
made during the recent Pullman
strike This is the mosc effective
strike conducted in Hegewisch for
many years" The reason is admit
edly the activity of the Trade Union
Educational League and the influence
of the DAILY WORKER, which is the
only Chicago paper writing up the
Hegewisch strike.
Small Business Aids.
Many of the small business men Of
Hegewisch got behind the strikers
yesterday, sending meat and grocer
les to the strikers and contributing
money to tide them over. Sympathe-
tic foremen told some of the strikers
yesterday that the employment man
ager has been ordered to settle with
the men this week, as hundreds of
thousands of dollars are being lost in
cancellation of orders and deteriora-
ton Of material.

Black Capitalists Hit as

BY ROBERT MINOR.

AotdH WTlAcF LAZY WOFNSTsy
NEW YORK, Aug. 11.-De-
cIaring that "the Negro masses
are suffering from the same
capitalist system that the white
people are suffering from" and
admonishing his hearers not to
forget that they have that sys-
tenn to fight, Marcus Carney,
president general of the Univer-
sal Negro Improvement Asso-
citation, at that organizations
convention here, scathingIy at
tackled "the capitalist class of
Negroes whose only concern is
to rob and exploit the unfor-
tunate of their own race"
Describing the manner in
which he said the unfortunate
Negro on migrating to the large
cities falls into the hands of
the privileged Negro" who de-
spoiIs him of what he may have
and then leaves him without
money ar friends, Mr.. Carney
indicated that such incidents
are typical of the capitalist sys-
tenn under which we live.
1.-THE Negro is suffering from the
oppression of the same capitalist
bunch as the white people are suffer
ing from and are fighting now. Don't
forget that we have that bunch to
fight.
Negro Victim of Oppression.
1.-THE Negro people are suffering I'M
der exploitation by a privileged class
of Negroes, business men and profes-
ional men who have no more consid-
Grafton for their own unfortunate peo-
pie than the white capitalist has.
have no more use for this kind of Ne
gro than / have for the white ex-
ploiter. Their selfishness is their only
motive, their contempt for the masses
of their people is great, and their
only mission is to rob and exploit the
unfortunate brothers of their own
race. The Negro real-estate man in
New York is the greatest devil we
have to combat"
Garvey described sort of combina
ton of the Negro real estate specu-
lators with white spectators who he
said were of the Jewish race, the two
conspiring to fleece Negro tenants who
are at their mercy because compelled
to live within segregated district.
"The white and the black real-estate
agents get together, and they drive
the white tenants out of building,
and they let Negro tenants in on con-
dition that they pay double the rent.
These skinflints make the Negroes
pay 100 per cent more than the white
tenants paid" Yet, the speaker said,
the Negro race considered as a whole
did not even then accumulate wealth
by this process, because within one
year after, the Negro SPECTATORS lit
tie five or ten thousand dollars goes
back into the pocket of his Jewish fell
Negro Preacher Curse to His Race.
"And the Negro preacher" said Mr..
Garvey, lis the curse of his race. And
trust that you will take that into
consideration" He declared that he
absolutely refused to conceal his real
thots on this question.

capitalist" said he. "but we also have
to fight the capitalistic Negro. He

THE CRIME

Comrades-You never joined the
army or navy because you were in
love with warfare, or because you
were attracted by the glamour of
the uniform. In nine cases out of
ten you were compelled to join the
services after long fight against
poverty and misery, caused by pro-
longed unemployment.
Once in the services, you are sub
jected to military discipline that
bears down upon you in an ever
increasing manner.
Repressive regulations and irk-
some restrictions are Intentionally
imposed upon you. And when war
is declared you are supposed to be
filed with longing to beat the
enemy" The enemy consists of
workingmen like yourselves, living
under the same slave conditions.
But the government not only organ
ICES the services for war, it always
keeps them fully equipped to be able
to crush their own workers when
the need arises.
Have you never noticed how, in
large strikes and lockouts, all the
newspapers condemn the strikers,
and talk about maintaining the
Essential services and the food
supplies? Have you forgotten that
during the Tonypandy strike Of
railwaymen in 1911 the soldiers
were used and workers were shot?
That gunboats were used by Asquith
to defeat the lockers in 1912? That
troops were used at Liverpool
against the transport workers in
1912? Have you forgotten how the
labor government threatened 70
use naval men during che dockers'
strike this year? How in the tram
way strike the government threat
ened to introduce Il. p. A., which
would have forced many OF you to
have shot your own brothers and
fathers? Have you forgotten the
miners lockout in 1921, when the
reserves were called out.
Soldiers, sailors, airmen, flesh of
our flesh, and bone of our bone, the
Communist Party calls upon you to
begin the task of not only organic
ing passive resistance when war is
declared, or when an industrial dis
pute involves you, but to definitely
and categorically let it be known
that, neither in the class war nor a
military war, will you turn your
guns on your fellow workers, but in
stead will line up with your fellow
workers in an attack upon the ex-
ploiters and capitalists, and will use
your arms on the side Of your own
class.
Form committees in every bar
racks, aerodrome and ship. Let
this be the nucleus Of an organiza-
ton that will prepare the whole Of
the soldiers, sailors and airmen not
merely to refuse to go to war, or to
refuse to shoot strikers during in
dustrial conflicts, but will make it
possible for the workers, peasants
and soldiers. sailors and airmen to
go forward in common attack
upon the capitalists and smash capt.
talism forever, and institute the
reign Of the whole working class.
Refuse to shoot down your fellow
workers.
Refuse to fight for profits.
Turn your weapons on your OPP
prcssors.
