Why Race Discrimination?

Why are there thousands and thou
sands Of Negroes brutally treated in
the United States as well as in Cuba.
Mexico, etc? Why are there discrim-
nations against Negroes in the unions
and why are no Negroes allowed TO
join the working class organizations
which are organized for the purpose
OF fighting their class enemies, the
capitalists? What are the reasons for
the various riots which took place
recently in Coffeyville, Ky. in St.
Louis, in New Jersey and in other
cities? Why is it the Negroes are the
most exploited workers in the United
States? How is he, the Negro. to
fight against the various obstacles on
the field Of organizing themselves in
to unions as well as against the vari-
GUS riots. Answers to all these uues-
lions will be given at the mass meet
ing which will take place this Friday.
April LIST, in the Mother Zion Com
munity House, 151 w. 1S6th St. at
Z P. NJ. and which is arranged under
the auspices of the Youth section of
the American Negro Labor Congress.
It is the duty of every class conscious
worker to come to this meeting and
to learn how to fight against those
determinations.

SOCIALIST GUSTS
MILITANT FROM
JEWELRY UNION
Beardsley Expels His
Opponent for Office

The depths to which the Boards
ley clique in the Jewelry Workers
union will descend in their attempt
to stifle the will of the membership
is seen in its latest move, that of
expelling from the union, Sam Nesin
one of the leading progressives and
candidate against Beardsley for or
ganizer in the coming election,
Nesin has addressed letter TO the
members Of the local in which he pre-
sents his case. He points out that
the reason given for his expulsion
does not hold water.
1t reads in part as follows:
Having been a member before
and worked at the bench first as an
engraver and then at setting and now
as jewelry clerk, which is still under
the jurisdiction of the l. J. W. u, /
felt that I was at least entitled to be
a member as well as brother Boards
ley who was not member Of the
local previous to his becoming or
ganizer nor did he work at the bench
at the time of his admittance. The
same applies to Joseph D. Cannon.
There is also Ruben Schwartz our
delegate to the United Hebrew
Trades who was re-admitted into the
local while not working at the bench
and who is at present not working
at any branch of the jewelry trade.
In spite of all these precedents l
received the following letter of Feb.
9TH, 1927:
Dear Sir and Brother:

pear before the Executive Board of

| responded to this summons and
asked if there were any charges
against me.
No Charges.
Brother Williams informed me
there were no charges but that the
Executive Committee had a right to
call a member and question him.
After a great deal Of questioning
they asked me to leave and / later
received the following letter:
To Samuel Nesin:
Dear Sir:

ecutive Board of this local at their

UNION MUST BE.
WON, STATE HAT
SHOP S STRIKERS
Bolivian Co. Workers
Stand Fast
(By Worker Correspondent)

The strike of the 81 workers en-
ployed at the Bolivian Panama Hat
Co., 653 Broadway, has just entered
its second week. Determined to stay
out until the demand for recognition
Of the union is met with, the strik-
ers, the majority of whom are girls,
are picketing the shop each day.
The strike was inflated by the IA
boys between the ages Of II and 10,
who were working in the factory, and
whose wages averaged between SIS
and ST. a week. According to the
strikers, the workers were expected to
work 10 and IL hours day, besides
cleaning and sweeping the factory in
addition. There is some scabbing be-
ing done by inexperienced girls, it is
said, but very little work is being
produced.

test to the New York legislature,
appealing for assistance to curb the
activities of rent-gouging landlords.
In writing to former Senator James
W. Wadsworth, who lost out in the
last election when his open affiIation
with the moneyed interests were ex-
posed. Mrs. Mildred o. Schroeder,
president of the league, said:
"The greatest need and wish of the
mothers of this city is to have better
homes to live in, where they will not
have to pay so much for rent that
they have very little income left for
other necessities. We implore you, we
beseeeh you, to aid us in improving
the terrible conditions in which so
many of the women of New York live
and work. Despite the fact that the
league endorsed and fought for each
new housing bill, the improvement
they hoped for was not Forthcoming.
The landlords, you know, have a
lobby like all other vested interests.
So the records run. In the next ar
ticle, this discussion will be continued.
One of the most important proofs of
the existence of housing shortage,
and Of the terrible living conditions
in New York, is found in the report
of A, f. Hinrichs, of the New York
State Bureau of Housing and Regional
Planning, TO the Brooklyn Chamber
of Commerce. This will be printed in
the following article.

Afraid of Election.
It is now March. Elections accord

during the month of January. Many
hasty and illegal actions have been
taken by the administration. 1t is
clear to me that the action taken
in declaring my membership null
and void" at this time is not because
of any Misrepresentation but an eff
fort by the present administration to
interfere seriously with a true ex-
preston Of the membership in an
honest election. It is fear of defeat
that makes them frantic.

portunity TO defend my membership
as against the autocratic action of
the Executive Board. The Executive
Board had no right to act, in viola

my membership null and

ferring charges and the member

Executive Board.

ItJcH may De QUESTIONED.
By WILL DE KALB

By WILL DE kALB
There is one point around which
the entire housing controversy re-
wolves, that might as we'll be settled
right now. That is, is there a housing
shortage? Of course, the facts re-
vealed in The DAILY WORKERS
housing survey should be conclusive,
but to clinch the matter, this writer
will quote recognized authorities to
prove the claim.
A survey made by the United States
Bureau of Health made public recent
ly states that there are 26,219, 100
dwellings in the entire country. One
fifth Of these, the report shows, are
in and about the state of New York.
According to the statisticians. no
where in the United States is there
such a density of dwellings, as there
is in the vicinity Of Greater New
York.
Dwelling Survey.
AS a matter of record. here are
some Of the figures.
New York G. Vicinity. 5,476,000
New England .... 1,S15,0o0
South .............. 3,219,S0
Elsewhere ............ 15,708,800
United States ........ 26,219,1O0
The figures show that the metro
politan area has more dwellings, than
any other section of the country. 1t
has five times the number command
ed by New England, double those in
the south, and one third the number
of dwellings, in the rest of the coun-
try, giving it one fifth the number in
the entire United States.
No Building Here.
1t is more significant to note that
the figures for New York have
changed very little in the past five
years, while the population has in
creased tremendously. This has placed
the rent-payer in the clutches of the
Inscriptions landlord. And has the
rental figures in this newspapers
survey showed, the landlord has taken
advantage of every opportunity.
Another survey, undertaken by the
Department of Labor, showed that
outside the New York area, one half
the dwellings in the United States,
l3,426,400 to be exact, are owned by,
persons whose income is less than
$4,000 a year. Thus, workers in the
rest Of the country, solve the housing
problems by buying their own houses.
City Workers Handicapped.
In the cities, and the densely popu-
lated area, however, this is impos-
sible. Plot Of land, 40x100, that
would be covered by a one-family
house in other areas, must here sup
port a house sheltering twenty and
thirty families. So the workers in the
areas must look elsewhere
for a solution.
That the 100000 dwellings, in the
metropolitan area, which includes New
York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania
are inadequate to house the millions
Of people who live there is proved by
countless surveys, petitions, and reso-
Iutions, made by independent and in
terested organizations.
Mothers Protest.
Not long ago the League of Moth
ers' Clubs Of the United States Neigh
borhood Houses made a stirring pro-

by the Forest Service, five appli- cations for waterrower develop ment and a supply of pulp timber were filed with the Federal Pow CT Commission and Forest Serv- ice. These applications covered power sites and timber supply ill the vicinity of Juneau and Ketch;- kan. These two timber units were advertised for sale and three bids were received The con tracts were awarded to the high est bidders and the right to de velop the necessary water power to operate the proposed plants was awarded the purchasers of the timber. Each project covers 5,000.0oG,000 feet of spruce and hemlock pulp timber and 50,00a to 60.000 horsepower of water. Timber sales and power licenses cover a period of 50 years. The contracts provide that a plan. with Sdaiiy capacity of not less than 200 tons of newsprint shall be in operation before April l, 1922.
