COMMUNIST CALL TO WORKING
WOMEN TO JOIN STRUGGLE MAY |
Discrimination, Bad Shop Conditions Increase
Woman Workers Need for Revolt
American Women Will Stand With Working
Masses Abroad, Against Imperialism

The Women s spartmentTT the
Communist Party of the U. s. A.
has issued the following statement:
May Day, 1929, finds the work
ing class of America deep in the
throes Of great struggle with the
forces of capitalist Imperialism.
Millions of workers are walking the
streets without a job, with starva-
tion staring them in the face.
Toiling under the lash of the cap
italist speed-up, the workers of
America and all other capitalist
countries are driven beyond endur-
ance in the race of their bosses to
capture the world market. Wage
cuts, lengthering of hours, intensifi-
cation of labor, the open-shop drive
of the bosses to smash every attempt
to organize and strike, police terror
against militant workers, so the
employers are conducting a bitter
war of repression against the work
ing class which today in America
is taking up the struggle against
capitalist naturalization.
Women in Thick of Struggle.
Women workers are in the fore
front of these struggles. Today in
the Southern textile strike, as in
New Bedford and Passaic, they. are
fighting in the front ranks, Drawing

than the slavery of the mills, strug-

The needle trades workers are
building a new militant union in the
face of the attacks of the bosses,
allied with the police and the Right
wing bureaucracy. The women mil

DEPUTIES STAB,

PICkETS AGAIN
BayonetC Charge by Boss
Gunmen Injuries Many,
Three Are Arrested
Strikers Keep Up Fight
Victorious in One Mill:
Great Need for Food

CASTONIA, April 80. - Three
strikers are in jail today. Many
are suffering severe injuries, as
they hold their picket lines around
the Loray mill.
At the evening picketing yester-
day the deputies armed with rifles,
hayonets, clubs and revolvers
charged into the line of massed
piekets, clubbed, stabbed, swore and
arrested, then drove half of the
pickets one way and half the other
way, threatening at every step to
open fire and NOW the workers
down.
Slug, Jail Children.
Two of the strikers arrested are
children, child slaves of Manville-
Jenckes before they began to fight
like men against starvation pay and
the IL hour day. They are Everett
Hazeldean, age Is, and Walter
Lloyd, age 16. The charge against
them is violation of the illegal,
hastily passed "anti-parading" or
dinance which the mill owners had
created overnight as a weapon
against the strike.
Another arrested striker is Mrs.
Callie Martin, who tried to save her
15-year-old striker son from a ter
rible beating, and was heartily slug
ged and thrown in an automobile by
deputies.
Win Another Strike.
Habeus corpus proceedings were
held up until Thursday, leaving the
three arrested workers in the jail
until then, the Jail, where other
strikers have been slugged and
beaten.
The workers at Forest City have
won; the stretch out system is abol-
ished and the efficiency" expert is
discharged.
Need Food.
The four mills at Bessemer are
still struck solid, and four other
mills in North Carolina are so badly
crippled by strikes they may have to
close down any time.
There is great need for food to
feed the thousands of strikers

YOUTH CONGRESS
ENDS DISCUSSION
ON C. P. REPORT
Reports Show Growing
Militancy of Youth

Robert Minor, summarizing the
discussion on the report of the Cen
tral Committee of the Communist
Party of the U. S. A.. at the third
session of the convention of the
Young Workers Communist League
dealt in great detail with the ques-
tions of white chauvinism and the
revolutionary perspectives during
this period of the development of
world economy. He again stressed
the necessity for stern unity in the
ranks of the Communist youth and
pledged the support of the Party for
its achievement.
John Harvey, reporting on the
Fifth World Congress of the Com
munist Youth International and the
work since the congress, pointed
out that the Fifth Congress of the
c. Y. |. is especially significant as
it marks the new turn for the Com
munist Youth International and the
Communist Youth Leagues in order
to take advantage of the growing
favorable situation for transforming
the Leagues into Mass Leagues.
These tasks were applied to the
American League in concrete form
in the open letter of the Cyl which
deals critically with the weaknesses
of the American League and with
steps necessary for more direct ap-
proach to the American workers.
All the events since the congress
have proven the correctness of its
decisions and have already shown
