Even the most advanced states make
pitiful contribution to the support
of the tens of thousands of widows
and orphans.
A national safety standards COM
mittee for the building trades
unions, in cooperation with the
Workers Health Bureau, has pre-
pared a safety code for the industry,
in order to lessen this appalling toll
of life.
No Safety Codes.
AS it is, 81 states have no safety
codes whatever and in ID others only
incomplete provision is made in the
labor laws for protection against
hazards. Most cities have incomplete
or poorly drawn codes while smaller
cities and non-urban communities
often have no provision whatsoever
for protecting building workers.
Employers are held mainly re-
sponsible for the great loss of life
in the industry. The trade union
committee states that contractors
neglect to safeguard adequately
workers lives on dangerous jobs
and that they lobby necessarily in
state and city Legislative bodies
against enactment Of adequate codes
or appropriation of sufficient sums
to enforce them.

the prison then Raksoi in the May
Day celebration of 1920 spoke be-
fore the Vienna workers. The po-
lice arrested him and he was ban
ished forever from Austria.
Now comes period full of
changes and activity for Rakosi. As
delegate of the Hungarian Commu-
mist Party, he takes part in the Sec
ond World Congress of the Commu-
mist International, and becomes sec
rotary of the Comintern. The name
of Rakosi becomes internationally
known and respected. He was trust
ed with the solving of the most diff
ficult and responsible problems.
Where courage, determination, mo-
bility, cleverness was needed, Ra-
kosi was in place.
September, 1925. Rakosi in the
clutches of the bloody Horthy po-
lice. Fastened with heavy chains, tor
tured, but proud and unbroken. He
is revolutionary and Communist.
When the judge asked why he
came to Budapest, he answered
openly:
"To propagate Communist ideas
and form the Communist Party"
On the question of his co-workers.
"You can ask me as long as you
want. l know that the death sem
tence threatens me. But under no
circumstances will I deliver my
friends to any of the police of the
world. You can hang me, but l will
say nothing"
In the Budapest bourgeois paper

here, tomorrow there. He travels
over the whole land, agitating and
forming organizations everywhere.
What he said as student few
years ago has become true. The
workers themselves elected their
leaders. They elected Rakosi.
Revenge does not stay out of it..
The regime of the democratic re-
public" of Hungary imprisoned him
and the leading functionaries of the
Party. The police do not spare tor
ture.
March, 1919. The red rays of the
Soviet Star light up the Hungarian
horizon. Dictatorship of the prole-
tariat. The energetic, never resting,
wide-awake Rakosi is again at his
post. He becomes the Vice-People's
Commissar for Commerce. He is one
of the most active and loyal of the
Soviet workers and at the same time
vice commissar. Agitator and pro-
pagandist, commander of the Red
Militia, political commissar of the
fighting Red Army, organizer.
When Salgotarjan, the only coal
mine of Soviet Hungary, was par
TALLY destroyed by the Czech army,
he organized under the greatest diff
ficulties new military corps, defend
ed the front, led the workers on the
battlefields, worked himself at coal
loading, until the front of the Red
Army had been restored. In this
way he aided the saving of the Sow

Thousands OF Accidents
Among Building Workers

At least a third of all the work
ers killed in industry lose their
lives in putting steel, cement, stone,
brick and glass together to make
new buildings.
They fall from dizzy heights while
swinging structural iron into place,
rock and sand crush them in 100
foot excavations, hoists and derricks
fall or collapse, scaffolding sudden
ly crumbles, rickety ladders give
way. The building worker walks on
I-beams or planks where misstep
would send him hurting to probable
death stories below. AS he works,
bricks or debris from above may
fall on him.
Electricians Gassed.
Electrical workers report that
coal gas from open salamanders
gathers near the ceiling. Working
on electrical connections along the
ceiling, they are often overcome by
gas and fall to the floor, sustaining
severe injuries as well as partial
asphyxiation.
The U. S. bureau of labor statis-
tics estimates that the number of
reported fatalities-about 10,000-is
a fraction of the real number, and
that probably $4,000 are killed on
the job each year. Other estimates,
made by responsible safety authori-
ties, run as high as $4,000 fatalities
in all industries.
100000 Injured.
In New York state alone, more
than 1000 construction workers lose
their lives each year, while 10000
more are injured, according to the
American Engineering Standards
Committee report in 1928. They es-
innate the national construction ac-
cident rate as 10 times greater.
This would mean that 10000 con-
struction workers-more than half
of them union men-lose their lives
each year, or die from injuries sus-
tanned while working. And 100000
are injured!
The cost of this is estimated at
$500, 1000, 900 to $400,000,000 a year
n compensation and lost wages.

Worker Remembers Haywood
Since Old F1unne-Mb Trial

The Daily Worker extends COR
dial invitation to all workers who
knew Bill Haywood, who met him
in labor struggles and were i'm
pressed or inspired by him to strug-
gle against the employing class, to
write us letters bearing on those
events which are now history and
which should be treasured by the
present and future generations of
American workers.
One of the letters we have re-
ceived is given below. We agree
with the healthy working class
hatred the writer of the letter holds
for the Goodings and the Fullers as
assassins of labor leaders, but we
differ on the question of the relative
merits of barrow as Haywood's
lawyer and the lawyer (Which one
of them is not stately who defended

it, of lawyers, the main fight is out

fighting spirit of protest on wide

steps follows the policeman. Behind
him comes a detective, whose right
hand likewise holds a broad thong,
the other end of which is tied to the
foot of the man walking ahead of
him. The shoelaces are missing from
the shapeless shoes of the imprisoned
man, the collar from his neck, on his
cosl-black head hat. The group
remains standing for a while be-
fore Hetenyi's room, The chained
man suddenly straightens himself,
proudly holds his head erect, and
an expression of pride comes over
him. Proud as a peacock he steps
through the doorway. His name is
Matthias Rakosi, one-time Peoples
Commissar of the Hungarian Red
Republic"
That is Matthias Rakosi. A proud,
unbreakable revolutionary.
The hurricane of proletarian pro-
test swept through the whole world.
Tens of millions of workers thun-
dered:
Hands Off Rakois,"
and the storm swept the axe from
the hands of the executioner.
The state attorney spoke:
81 charge Matthias Rakosi with
the crime of attempting to over
throw and the destruction of the
state and the social order"
Matthias Rakosi was sentenced to
eight and one-half years prison and
all courts of appeal, to the royal
court, confirmed the sentence.
January, 1929. Matthias Rakosi
goes on hunger strike against the
dark cells, isolation, refusal to al
low letters and visits, against the
slow, planned murder.
He wins his hunger strike, but
despite the promise of the prison
authorities to relieve the discipline,
he is still in danger. He remains in
a dark and cold cell. He has lost
weight and he is i'll.
Workers of all lands, you must
for the second time save the life
of this true revolutionary fighter.
Only you can do it!

An appeal to the proletariat of
the world to rally to the Bulgarian
workers in their fight against the
white terror, is contained in a mes
sage received by the Bulgarian Bur
eau of the Workers (Communist)
Party from the Independent Work
ers' Trade Unions of Bulgaria. The
message follows;
Dear Comrades: The five years
of indescribable terror, which the
Bulgarian government exercises over
the Bulgarian toilers, and the loss
of the best and many sons of the
working class who were sacrificed,
could not conquer the rebellious
spirit, could not compel the exploit
ed to give up the struggle. In spite
of all, the Bulgarian labor movement
stands solid at its post of the worlds
proletarian battlefield.
Part of Anti-SOviet Bloc.
"Lately, and especially after the
signing of the loan from the i'm
perialist states, the Bulgarian gov
eminent, to fulfill the will Of the
imperialists, undertook a new cam
paign of destruction against the
working class and in particular
against the Independent Workers
Trade Unions. The purpose of this
fascist campaign is to make smoked
meat out of the Bulgarian workers
for the coming war against the
Soviet Union, in which it has been
prepared to make Bulgaria a mill
tary base for the imperialists against
the Soviet Republics.
GAS illustration, we will mention
here only few facts in regard to
the vicious terror which has lately
swept throughout our country.
z. z. z. Law.
"1.-A month ago two members
of the Central Committee of the
I. w. T. u, Jordan Milleff and
Abraham Stoyanoff, were arrested
and indicted under the z. z. z. law
claw for the defense of the state)
In prison they are under constant
ly violent regime and the most bru-
tai treatment which ruins their
health.
"2.-Sixteen other workers have
been arrested with them under the
same z. z. z. law as members and
organizers of the Communist Party.
The fascist police in order to pro-
duce the necessary evidence and con-
LESSONS, are resorting to unimagin-
able means Of torture as: beating
the workers until blood runs from
their bodies, and then throwing them
into underground, damp cells. Con-
sequently their health is ruined and
some Of them will never survive.
"3.-In the city of Jliven another
terroristic process was carried on
against forty young workers simply

check mass protest, to "soft-pedal"
revolutionary protest where another
may tolerate or even encourage it.
But that is not the decisive factor.
However, we give the letter as fol-
lows:
"The first time / saw and heard
Big Bill was three days after he
came out of the Idaho penintentiary
when Gooding was sailing under the
cloak of governor trying to get a
rope around Bill Haywood's neck as
the murderer, Governor Fuller, sue
ceeded in doing with Sacco and Van
zetti.
"But, thanks to Clarence barrow,
he was snatched from the murder
gang. It was in Luna Park, and
Haywood addressed a great crowd
of at least 10000 workingmen. There
I first saw and heard him. And I
bet that if Sacco and Vanzetti had
had Clarence barrow instead of a
capitalist-minded lawyer, these men
would have been walking the streets
of Boston as free men.-J. F. G."
We think that if J. F. C. had
thought the matter over a bit, he
might have seen that there are more
than one kind of capitalist-minded
lawyers. Darrow's eloquence in
Haywood's and other labor trials
aroused many workers to general
hostility to capitalism, but his en-
dorsement of the capitalist, Tam
many Hall candidate for president
in the last election, AL Smith, was
evidence quite contrary to any idea
that he is opposed to capitalism.

(Mathias Rakosi, a prisoner in
a HOrthy fortress, by a hunger
strike which lasted two weeks
forced the prison authorities to
promise that the fearful prison re-
gime would be lightened. His life
is in greatest danger, however,
since the Horthy regime, afraid to
kill him outright, is attempting to
kill him by degrees. He can only
be saved by mighty international
protest movement of workers.
1911. The room of the radical
students club is full of young hot
heads. With sorrowful voices they are
discussing the participation of the
students in the fight for general en-
franchisement, the relation to the
working class movement. High-fal-
lutin' phrases, sentimental avowals.
Much smoke, no flame. The chair
man declares:
"Our duty is to help the workers
in the fight with the weapons of
our spirit. This mass needs head.
Let them give us the leading role
in the movement and we will do our
duty"
Stormy applause.
A small, dark student pushes to
the table and asks for the floor.
eff the students want to help the
workers in the fight, then they must
prove their intentions with deeds.
If they Immediately demand the
leading role they will get kicked as
they deserve. Membership in the
party organization, participation in
the daily tasks, distribution of leaf
lets and pamphlets, house-to-house
agitation, holding meetings, that is
our work if we really mean it. The
workers will elect their own leaders" "
This small student was Matthias
Rakosi.
In this way began his activity in
the working class movement.
November, 1918. The small Ra-
kosi is one of the first members of
the Communist Party of Hungary.
"Mathi" soon becomes Known. He is
the lightning agitator." Today
