MIJRPHY'SFAKERY
NOW CLEAR TO ALL
Bosses Man Shows His
Real Colors
(By Worker Correspondent)

> (Bu Worker Correspondent)
DETROIT, Mich. Enclosed will
find Detroit News clipping of october
Goth and note what the faker Murphy
says about help from the bosses to
feed the jobless, and admitting a
famine here this winter, etc, all Of
which shows a complete flop of his
noise about helping the jobless.
"The major outlines of the City's
labor policy during the coming winter
were laid by Mayor Murphy today
at meeting with the Council.
"The Mayor Announced"
81. No laborer will be laid off who
is now working for the City.
80. Money now being spent for
welfare doles will be paid out for
jobs which will be created as jobs
were created in 1921 by Mayor Cou-
zens.
%. The Mayor is comforting with
industrial leaders in an effort to make
the industries take care of their own
welfare work, by supporting the fam
lilies of men they lay off jobs"

OAKLAND POLICE
JAHING ,JOBI.ESS
FOR "VAGRANCY"
Thousands of Migra-
tOrv Workers JObless

OAKLAND, Cal.-Oakland, the Gin
dustrial city of the West" as the
Booster Clubs call it is also center
point for agricultural workers. This
year due to the agrarian crisis
thousands of agricultural workers
were unable to make a stake in the
fields They are now drifting back
to the cities looking in vain for
job.
Workers Are Jailed
The police use every method that
they can to terrorize these migratory
workers They are picking them up
every day and falling them for vag-
rancy. They are trying to chase them
out of town. They are in short treat
ing them as criminals because the
system of CAPITALISM is so bankrupt
that it cannot find jobs for them.
These workers, however, refuse to
stsrve without making a fight. They
are fighting back. The other day
about a dozen of these workers
pooled their money, and bought some
stuff to make a mulligan out Of. Be-
ing homeless they went down to the
jungles to jungle up.
Police Thugs in Raid
When the stew was about ready
four police thugs attacked these
workers, kicked over the stew and
ordered them out of town. The pol
ice here hate the workers so much
that they cannot even bear to see
them eat. In this they are only re-
flecting the attitude of their masters,
the boss class.
We Must Organize
Workers, the reason that the poll
ice succeeded in destroying the food
of the workers and chasing them
was because they were not organized.
Had these workers been organized
into a real militant fighting union
such as the Trade Union Unity Lea
que, the cops would never had the
CUTS to attack them. Had we real
unemployed insurance such as put
forward by the Communist Party,
these workers would not have had
to go down to the jungles to eat.
So let's go, form our own militant
industrial unions, support the Com
munist Party and the Unemployed
Insurance Bill.

rowing and not the broadening of
higher and lower leadership, show
no development of the forces of the
unions and leagues. Even to the
extent of working out details in
arranging a meeting.
This state Of affairs in the daily
work Of the T.U.U.L. Is a result of
the unsatisfactory development of
new cadres. In every league and
union affiliated to the T.U.UL.
there are many workers that could
be developed to take different
functionary positions in active
trade union work II only the
Trade Union Unity Council would
be reorganized so as to be able to
take a more careful interest In
each and every trade separately.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa.-The bosses
at Philco are afraid that their slaves
will learn too much if they allow
them to read the Daily Worker and
have issued a warning to any one

We still take the paper there and

TO LAY OFF MANY
CITY EMPLOYEES.
Philadelphia Mayor Off
for More Booze
(By a Worker Correspondent

(By a Worker Correspondent
PHILADELPHIA, Pa.-Mayor Mac
key, the honorable mayor of Phila-
delphia, has made the statement that
one-third of the city employees of
Philadelphia are to be laid off the
first of the new year. In other words
he has come to the conclusion that
the small men in the City Hall are
getting too much Of the city's money,
making it less for him and his croo-
MES to divide between them.
While he is making that statement
he failed to say anything about his
third trip to Europe, that he is plan
ming. Having made two trips across
this year, he says that he is not look
ing at it from the social side on this
trip, he is going over to try to make
the City of Philadelphia one of the
leading sea ports in the East, which
is a very good excuse for using the
money of the workers for good
vacation.
If Mr. Mackey really had the good
of the working class at heart, then
he would start in by cutting down
on his own salary, and do without his
trips to Canada and Europe, for they
are not necessary anyway, for he
can get all the good booze that he
wants from his private bootlegger
But that would never do, for he
knows that when he loses the soft
job that he has now, and has to go
out and earn living, he will never
be able to make enough money. to
even take a trip to New York City,
so he is making the most of it while
he has a chance.

FIRE DANGER IS
MENACE AT RCA
No Protection for the
Workers Here
(By a Worker Correspondent

(By Worker Correspondent
CAMDEN, N. 1.-THE bosses of
Victor's RCA don't give a rap for the
lives Of the thousands Of workers In
their employ. I'm working in this
slave joint and I can tell you just
how they put it over on us. They use
every second Of the day to make
money out of us but they wouldn't
take a few minutes every month for
fire drill to protect our lives in case
of a fire.
Fires Frequent.
On another floor in our building
a real fire broke out and here's what
happened. One Of the pitch pots on
a table burst into flames. The girls
working around that table all sprang
up in terror for the sparks were fly
ing all around. Nobody told them
what to do so they all ran around
and fed to different parts OF the
room-some started for the door, but
one Of the guards ran to the door,
locked it and shouted that everyone
stand still. OF course everyone on
the floor got excited and wanted to
know what 1t was all about, but the
foreladies and bosses rushed around
like mad hollering for them to go
back to work At last the flames we're
put out and the girls we're sent back
to their places to work.
No Protection.
In case Of fire, nobody in this
hell-hole knows just what to do. In
the confusion thousands could be
burned to death, but it isn't the pro-
lection Of our lives that's worrying
the millionaires that own this slave
joint but its the thousands Of dollars
out of every single minute of speed
up that they're after.
To prevent our own lives, to i'm
prove our working conditions, to do
away with the speed-up, the long
hours, fake bonus system-we must
get together and put up a fight!
Workers in every single department
must get together and organize into
shop groups under the Metal
Workers Industrial League and make
their demands to the bosses. In
union there is strength! Through
organization is the only way that
we'll gain better conditions and
lick the bosses!

Forced Out.
The poor worker started to get
out of the city with all possible haste.
Now there was not anyone to give
him a lift in an auto or any thing
like that. He made his way on foot,
hungry and weary. He kept going
until he came to little hamlet called
Toxon, about two miles from New
Haven.
When he was going through there
on the state road, the town con-
stable spied him. He didn't like his
looks either. He placed him under
arrest Immediately. He was brought
to the city to serve thirty days in
the hoosegow. His time will be up
by now.
Sent Up After All
I suppose when he comes out they
will send him up again. This is in

(By worker correspondent
SOUTH BEND, Ind.-The workers
In South Bend are very indignant
over the offer to work for 20 cents
an hour. Last Friday well dressed
lady in a big sedan drove around the
ploletarian district, offering the I'M
employed workers jobs at 20 cents an
hour. A bunch of workers gathered
around her car and none accepted
her charitable offer. They showed
good fighting spirit, when worker
told her, "We want work or real
wages, not charity" Another said,
"You are insulting us by your 20
cents an hour jobs" The lady left
In hurry, with deep disappointment
on her face.
Start Organizing.
A few minutes later Comrade Burja
arrived on the scene and. held talk
to those workers, eplaining them the
program of the rade Union Unity
League and calling on them to join
their fellow workers in the revolu-
tionary movement.
At the Unemployed CouncilT meet
ing another worker had this to say.
He went to Milwaukee and he got a
Job there at so cents an hour. He
worked 3 weeks and one day he asked
the boss how long is the job going
to last. he boss said it would be a
steady job. The worker in question
had accumulated 5000 in the bank.
The cost of moving his family to
Milwaukee was 500. He then pro-
ceeded to move his family there.
After he arrived in Milwaukee with
his family he only worked days and
got laid of for good. Now what little
more money he had he used it all up
on his living and now he has no
money, no job and no food. This
worker is member of the Unem-
ployed Council in outh Bend.
Forced to Steal
Says he stole auto, needing hos
pital aid"
The above is a quotation from the
South Bend Tribune" This is what
a hungry and sick worker had to say
in Judge Thos. w. Sticks Federal
Court on October 90: "I could get no
work and I needed medical attention
I can't live much longer without it.

help me. In Lafayette was stand

pital in Leavenworth and I am ask
ing you, judge, to send me there so
that I can get the treatment for my
aiIment. I cannot borrow the money
to pay for it on the outside"

for two conferences on unemploy-

speech in Youngstown said NO one

the state can do to help"
Starvation Near.
But as matter of fact the state
has no intention of doing anything
for the starving unemployed. And
to prove my contention I enclose a
letter from the Department of Public
Welfare of the State of Ohio. I told
them how long I was out of employ
ment and that our savings are ex-
hausted and starvation is staring us
in the face unless we get relief.
We owned little home here and
we were trying to get a small loan
on this prosperity and we tried every
bank and loan company in the
county and we could not get a cent.

In reply to our appeal to the Pub
lie Welfare Dept, we received the fol-
lowing:
Dear Strive regret exceedingly
that neither this department nor any
other state department administers
financial aid, We can only suggest
that you apply to the Township
Trustees of the township of your resi-
dence
Very truly yours,
Dept. of Public Welfare,

The joke of this is that the trustees
of the township are eking out mere
existence by working on the county
roads and the little graft they get
from the higher-ups.
Jobless Must Fight.
In the summer they put on 8 to
4 men to do the hard work for rs
cents an hour and then have to wait
for this lousy pay until New Years,
when the tax money comes in.
So we had to offer our home for
sale for what ever we were offered
and consequently it was sold for
song.
All this bunk about the unemployed
relief which these politicians and
grafters are spreading out over the
country over the radio and through
the capitalist newspapers is nothing
but campaign propaganda in order to
catch votes.
