Blaze Causes Excitement

number of men and boys rushed to
the scene, however the fire was ex-
tinguished before any especial dam
age was done. With the extreme
dry weather and scarcity of water
fire would be disastrous.

Bv HARRISON GEORGE.

cENATOR LA TOILETTE of Wisconsin, pre-
tending to defend the unemployed from the
tribute of the capitalist senate, pretends also
that "The Communists are negligible factor"
in this country.
Strange that this negligible factor should
suddenly become the center of attention of
priest and politician, of senators and stool
pigeons, of open-shop bosses and "labor" fas-
cist bureaucratic
Yet had it not been for these "negligibles,"
who indeed, would have remembered the little
two-by-four senator from Wisconsin?
And what has LaFollette to offer? Did he
do anything while the bosses were cutting
wages? Not until the unemployed movement
led by the Communists and the revolutionary
Trade Union Unity League had led hundreds
of thousands into fierce battles, these "negli
gibles" taking the brunt of the police clubbngs,
did the fake progressive" even mention that
wage cuts were taking place along with mass
dismissalsl
Since LaFollette is one of the blue ribbon
bulls of the so-called Farm Bloc" perhaps the
gentleman would inform US how goes things
with the poor farmers whom he and all the
other 'riberal' and progressive" tools of fin
ance capital have kidded along with the Hoo
yer program of "cooperatives" and what has
become of the orderly marketing of the wheat
and cotton crops
The bottom has dropped from under the card
board house of the Farm Board and one of the
gravest price falls in history has swept away
a thousand million or more of expected income
from the farmers already, in their poorer 60
per cent, suffering lives of poverty as hopeless

White Collar Slaves Hit By
Crisis

OVER 80 per cent of New York's 100000
white collar" workers, around 100000
including office workers, clerks, stenographers
and technical men are estimated to be out of
work by commercial employment agencies in
statements made here few days ago.
According to James Gray of the National
Employment Exchange, 80 Church St. the de-
mand for men was 60 per cent less this jan
uary than last, while the demand for women
dropped so per cent. In January, 1929, Gray
said, there were 299 men for every 100 jobs
to be had as compared with 657 male applicants
for the same number of available jobs in JAN
uary, 1880 Women applicants totaled 1877 for
every 100 available jobs in January, 1929 as
compared with 610 applicants in January, 1880.
Another agency reported 30 per cent drop
in order for office workers in the past year,
while admitting that "the tendency has been
for 1Ddges to drop"
The same story is told by practically all of
the agencies reporting. The head of the Pace
Agency at 225 Broadway stated that the New
York city employers are seeking to keep their
heads above water by curtailing expenses Not
only are many discharging employees but they
are cancelling projects which had been planned
for the new year. Occasionally we hear of
drastic salary cuts, such as the man with a
$4,000 job who asked to work for $500"
The Hamilton Employment Service at so
Church St. estimated that office aoorkers'
aOageS haze been cut per cent since the stock;
exchange crash. Other agencies pointed out
that the period of unemployment was increas-
ing as compared with previous year.
Instead of being "above" the working class,
the white collar" workers are experiencing
what all skilled labor is experiencing in Amer
lea, the levelling and displacement process of
capitalist naturalization Labor saving" ma
chinery. which only saves the bosses from pay
ing wages, is throwing whole armies of office
workers out of work, and rendering their skill
useless. Low wages, and even starvation wages
for thousands upon thousands of girls, deaden-
ing speed-up with a mummifying routine as
well as drastic wage cuts are bringing these
workers down to the rest of industrial working
class.
The economic crisis burst the bubble of "pros-
perity and overexpansion in commercial and in
dustrial enterprises, and, together with the
millions of factory workers, also hurled thou
sands of the "white collar slaves into the
street. forcing them to realize the real mean
ing of capitalism for the working class The
proletarianization of vast sections of the middle
| class is here shown to be not mere fiction of
the brain, but very palpabe process expert
enced by hundreds of thousands in their own
"vile bodies"

international of Labor Unions has called upon
all its affiliated sections to mobilize the
masses of working women to participate with
the men workers in the great international
demonstrations initiated by the Communist In
ternational, for March 9Th and March 9Th.
March 9th is to be worldwide strike and
demonstration of the employed and unemployed
workers against capitalism and the terrible
evil OF unemployment. The second, March 8th
international Womens Day. is to be a great
solidarity demonstration of all workers to in
tenslfy the organization and revolutionary edu-
cation OF women workers, and their mobiliza-
ton for the class struggle
Inc Trade Union Unity League, American
Section of the R.ILU., endorses these calls,
and calls upon all its affiliated unions and
leagues to throw their full force in making
both March 9th and March 9Th, gigantic prole
tartan demonstrations.
In connection with the March 9Th strike
and demonstration against unemployment the
women's committees Of T.U.U.L. organization
must work with the local unemployment coun-
ellis for the mobilization of the greatest pos
sibe number of women workers. This must
be done through factory gate meetings, dis
trlbution of literature, holding of women,s
delegate conferences, etc, The employed wom
en- workers will strike and participate in the
demonstrations at the time and place set hv

the camp of Social Democrats-he ran from
Kagawa prefecture supported by the poorest
and most militant sections of peasants in
Japan. He was defeated because the govern
ment interference was indescribably great.
This time he is electel but not by peasants
but by petty bourgeois voters as social demo-
crat. He ran from precinct of Tokyo dis
trict in the present election.
1t is necessary to remember that the Com
nunst Party of Japan, though strictly illegal
and with 1926 of it's leading members in jail,
was not idle. for the radicalizing workers and
peasants of Japan wanted to fight and are
fighting The Communist Party of Japan leads
the working class of Japan and the Commu-
mist International is the guiding spirit of the
Communist Party of Japan. Workers and
peasants will fight for the overthrow Of capt.
talism not only nationally. but internationally.
1t is the utmost task of the Japanese prole-
tariat at this particular moment first to ruth
lessly fight against he present Minseto Gov
ernment's "economizing policy" which through
capitalist naturalization and through other
means bitterly attacks the living standard of
the Japanese working class. and secondly, to
fight the renegade Oyama's legal Labor-Farm-
err Party. To do this the Japanese working
class must strengthen and build up strong mass
Communist Party in spite of all difficulties.

WHO ARE THESE
"NEGLIGIBLES?"

did the Russian peasantry under the knout
of the Gar.
This new crisis in agriculture will bring,
sure as tomorrow's sum- another crash in Wall
Street, and new and deeper echoes in all Amer
lean industry. And the miserable spotlight
seekers like LaFoette have no cure for either
the agricultural depression or the industrial
crisis. All they can do is to try to head off
the disconnected and rebellious masses from
following the Communists, the only political
Party which has policy, correct and there
fore a revolutionary policy, for the misery
which capitalism inflcts upon the toiling mass
es.
Therefore the resurrection from the dead
and deservedy forgotten limbo of oblivion. of
the name of "IaFollette," seekirr to clir-N into
the vision of the masses as did his treacherous
side with sweet words to lure and tricky prae-
teal" proposals to betray tn masses into
progressive or farmer-labor' corral, to again
be butchered to make Wall Street holiday
Therefore to shoe the masses away from the
Communists by .terming the Communists as
''negigibes."
But these "negligibles" are supported by mil
lions, else why all the hue and cry about these
"insignifcants When did ever robber rul-
ing class waste its time with the mobilization
of whole regiments of police armed to the teeth
with all the machinery of mass slaughter
against "negligibles
Against the capitalist class and its fake
progressive" opposition against all the Hoo

bles," are modelling the masses in revolutions

airy leadership who betrayed them in order to
build new revolutionary labor center, the
Trade Union Unity League. The A. F. of L.
membership must, over the heads of their
reactionary leadership, join the struggle of the
unemployed; they must support the unemploy-
ed councils and expose the A. F. of L. takers
as enemies of the organized and unorganized
workers.
This present struggle calls forth not only for
more energetic campaigns to organize the unor-
gained, to build the 7. U. u. L., but also for
more intensive work within the A. F. of L.
unions, to win away the rank and file member
ship from the reactionary membership and for
the 7. U. U. L. The present struggle will only
be successful if it is being driven along revo-
lutionary channels, if the struggle of the I'M
employed is connected with the struggle
against imperialist war, and against imper-
alism as whole, if the struggle of the unen-,
ployed is utilized for the building of the revo-
lutionary trade unions, the Communist Party,
and the defense of the Soviet Union Only
then will we say that the unemployed struggle
of the workers is successful 1t is precisely
these results that the American bourgeoisie
fears most, but it is these results that will give
to the American workers the most from the
present struggle.

Working Women Join the March
9th and 9th Demonstrations

The growing economic crisis in the United
States, which is part of the world crisis of
capitalism, hits women workers as well as men
workers. Out of over six million unemployed
about two million are women and many more
thousands are working only part time. The
women workers suffer from all the wage cuts,
speed-up, ETC., which is part of the employers
program of throwing the burden of the crisis
onto the shoulders of the workers. The in
tolerable exploitation in industry, the police
brutality against workers, and the betrayal by
the social fascists of the A. F. of L. and So
cialist Party are producing profound resent
ment and fighting spirit among the workers
everywhere. In the United States, as in all
other countries, the workers are demonstrat-
ing by strikes and other mass movements, that
they increasingly struggle against the tyranny
of the employers and their government. Wo-'
men workers are joining with the men and
supporting the demands of the working class
in the economic and political struggles.

countries for the growing struggle, the Red
