NEGROES WORST
VICTIMS OF U. S.
INDUSTRIAL RULE
Judges Blat Does Not
Fool CoIored Meet

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, June 3d.
Addressing the mass meeting Of the
National Association for the Advance
ment Of Colored People, now in Fiji
teenth Annual Conference here, Hon.
Ira w. Jayne, Judge of the Circuit
Court of Detroit, declared that he
could prove by established facts
from the industrial centers of the
North" that the Negro migrating
from the South had made good in
his new environment. Judge Jayne
said in part;
NEGRO Is Working Man"
1896 firms in Detroit employ 10000
Negroes, in numbers ranging from
1900 and 1000 down to 10, at equal
pay with whites and under equal
working conditions. One-fifth of the
Post Office force in Detroit are Neg
roes. 21,O00 Negroes are employed
in the steel industry in the Pittsburgh
district Negro workers perform the
major work in the stockyards Of
Chicago. These same statistics show
his employment to be as regular, his
health in the North as good"
Declaring that the Negro preferred
seven dollars a day in the North to
seven dollars a week in the South"
and "ten months equal schooling in
the North to two months sighted
schooling in the South" Judge Jayne
expressed the hope that the Negro
who had come North would stay.
"The Negro is a man. He is here.
He is a working man."
The judge also added something
about hoping that the Negro would
stay until he has learned all there
is to know of this industrial system
which is at once our salvation. and
our despair" The judge meant, tho,
that the industrial system, the profits
system, is his and the other capital
lists salvation" but the workers "des-
pair" He wants negro workers to
stay and be good industrial slaves.
Communists Fight For Negroes
The Workers Party hopes the Neg
70 workers will stay until they learn
call there is to know of this indus
trial system" which will continue to
be their despair" together with that
of all other workers. The Negro
workers and the white must learn
more about this despair" system and
how to make their own government
that will let the workers run industry
for all the people and not for a self
selected group of greedy capitalists.

Our predictions and worst forebod-

crushed by all the rules and regula-

Of all this history is that the Left
Wing failed to notice, or make an ap-

own defeat.
The main point of difference, was
as it is well known, the question of
relations toward the Russian unions.

Nicaragua forbids any citizen to
succeed himself in the presi-
Idency.
The facts as gathered by the Pan
American labor spokesman are these:
Wall Streets chamorros.
Martinez is progressive member
of the Conservative party, a rancher
who had been elected in 1920 as vice
president, when Diega Manuelo Cham
orro was elected president for the
term now expiring. Diego was the
uncle of Emiliano Shamorro, who had
been president for the term 1860.
1t was understood that the uncle
would give way to the nephew for a
second term, at the 1924 election.
While the one Chamorro acted as
president, the other was minister at
Washington. They were leaders of
the extreme reactionary aristocracy,
and were in high favor with the Amer
lean minister, Ramer
But Deago Chamorro died, and Mar
tinez, coming into the presidency, dis
covered that he might do something
to loosen the stranglehold of Wall
Street on Nicaragua. This clutch of
the bankers dates back to the in
famous Knox-Castrillo treaty negotiat-
ed with the Estrada government
about 1910, but not ratified by the
senate.
U. s. Loans and Murders.
II was arranged at that time that
Brown Bros. and Seligman & Co.
should loan $15,0O0,000 to Nicaragua,
to refund the national debt, found
national bank, establish the currency
on a gold standard, and construct
railway to the Atlantic seaboard. The
customs of Nicaragua we're to be
given as security for the loan. Altho
the treaty was never approved, the
bankers rushed thru a 99-year con-
cession for bank of issue and con-
troll to prevent liberal element from
gaining control, were set to guard
the bankers control of the customs
Offices, and there they have remained
for IL years at the expense of the
American people. In that time they
have killed some 1000 Nicaraguans.
They controlled the election which
made Adolfo Diaz a tool Of the bank
ers, president of the republic. and in
this and subsequent elections they
we're accused of all kinds of fraud
and violence.
Bankers Got Railroads.
In 1914 Diaz sold the national rail
ways to these bankers for $1,000, 900.
Six years later the bankers sold this
control back to the Chamorro family
regime for S1,7o0,00O. In that six
year period the feet Of steamships on
the inland waterways, belonging to
the railways, had disappeared, and no
improvements or repairs had been
made on the road. Martinez, on TAX
ing Office, decided to make full and
final payment on July /, 1924, for the
remaining $3tb,O0O owed the bankers
for the railroads. The bankers hold

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, June 3d.
The monthly review of the Philadel-
phia Federal Reserve Bank covering
industry and trade conditions in East
ern Pennsylvania, southern New Jer-
sey and Delaware, says that business
activity has declined during the last
month. The slackening was evidenced
by an increase in unemployment. The
number of wage earners in the dis
trict covered by the report fell 81
per cent while the total wages de-
clined 81 per cent. Reports show these
declines have continued during the
current month.

2-Shift System
Especial to The Daily Worker,

WASHINGTON, D. c., June 3d.
Wages in the month of April de-
creased 2 per cent as compared with
the same month last year, while en-
, ployment increased So per cent for
the same month as compared with
April, 1928, the survey Of the U. s.
Department of Labor shows. The sur
vey covers as industries and gains
in employment were shown in only 10
of the industries. Gains in earnings
were shown in 20 industries.
The review knocks on the head the
pleasant myth that the 12-hour day
and 7-day week in the iron and steel
industry is past, in the following
words:
IL Hours, Days.
while the eight hour turn has
been adopted as the standard work
ing time for all employees in some
entire plants and in certain depart
ment divisions in other plants, the
twelve hour shift stiI1 prevails to a
large extent. Some employees also
work seven days week.
"The blast furnace department
particularly, while showing grad
ual decrease from former years in
the hours of employees as a whole,
was still largely on the twelve
hour basis. In sheet and tin plate
mills the eight hour shift had long
ago been found to be more profit
able for both employee and employ
er on account of the speeding up
of production made possible by the
shorter working hours.
Earnings of these employees per
hour have increased Is per cent in
1924, as compared with 1922, altho
they are still rs per cent below the
peak of hign wage rates of 1920"
