of the Soviet Union and the Five

"The success of the Five-Year

M. Olgin, speaking for the Friends
of the Soviet Union said: "First
they pray, then they protest and
then war! Charity begins at home.
Why don't they pray for the unem-

or department had caused the dis
charge of over 200 workers in New

locked out over 1000 in the effort
to smash the union, thus adding to
the ranks of the unemployed.
The draft program of the Ma

Unemployment goes before the ex-
ecutive board of the Trade Union
Unity League for adoption Friday.
