Yesterday the Daily Worker pub

fic and detailed. This Bill provides
for the payment of $25 per week to
all unemployed workers, and an
additional SIS per week for each de-
pendent member of an unemployed
workers family. 1t provides for a
heavy levy on the bosses income to
pay for the unemployment insur-
ance. 1t provides turning over the

HUGE LAY-0FFS
In jDHNSTOWN
Negro Workers First
to Go

JOHNSTOWN, Pa, July 31.-In
addition to the suffering caused by
5000 unemployed here in this steel
and coal center, the wage-cut, part
time and speed-up program of the
bosses is causing resentment among
ever wider masses of the workers.
Polish, Russian, Danish and
American workers for the Lorain
Steel Company toll side by side two
and three hours daily for approx
mately 40 cents an hour. The men
operating the cars get only 35 cents
an hour while motormen work 10
and u hours daily for 7 days a
week.
Out of the 1900 workers nor
mally employed at the Schwab
plant, only rs now remain. Wages
range from 35 to As cents for I'M
skilled labor. The wire factory in
place of the usual $500 workers is
rushing things along with from
1900 to 1000 under the speed-up
system. The Negro workers were
the first to feel the brunt of the
lay-offs at Schwab's plant.
Mines have been opening for
four or five days and then closing
down and others opening up. The
Bethlehem Steel Company has cut
wages 5 cents on the ton which
means that the miners now get 60
cents per ton instead of 65 cents.
The mining companies do not pay
for deadwork so a miner may work
all day and even all week for
nothing. One miner received 81
cents for six days work after the
deductions were made for explosives
and doctors fee. Another miner re-
ceived a check reading "No dollars
and no CENTS" for one weeks work.
To make sure that a ton of coal is
taken out the miner must take out
2l3 tons to be paid for one. For a
three ton car, a miner is allowed
IA tons and not more than 1.6 tons.
Boys Is and 16 years of age re-
ceive 20 cents an hour for outside
work while grown men get 80 cents.
Children 10 and Ii years old work
ing in the mines sometimes receive
only a dollar a week or even
nothing.
In order to take advantage of the
discomfort of the workers the fake
progressives under the leadership
of Hapgood are trying to gain the
confidence and support of the min
ers for the United Mine Workers
Union claiming that the UNIV.
will be organized on a new basis
and that Lewis will go. The Wind
bar miners, however, are rather
wary of them as they were sold out
by the United Mine Workers Off
Gals in 1921. In spite of the United
Mine Workers Officials and the
stool-pigeons who report discon-
tended workers to the bosses and
have them fired, the miners are
waking up and are ready for or
ganization. Their sentiment seems
to be for the National Mine Work
ers Union which they feel as a real
revolutionary organization of class
conscious miners, will best be able

MOSCOW PREPARES FOR

MOSCOW, U.P.S.)-The Central
Council of the Society for the Pro-
motion of Aviation, Chemistry and
Defense has issued a circular to all
its branches calling for mobiliza-
ton of the broadcast masses of the
toilers in connection with the anti
war campaign on August LIST to con-
solidate and strengthen the defen-
sive capacities of the Soviet Union

of the organization on August 1st

STRIKE AGAINST
WAGE CUTS CROW
700 At Bond Electric
CO. Fight Second Cut

AS the number of wage cuts grow
apace, and as the workers increase
their struggles against wage cuts,
the leading bosses come out with
the worst lie in the present crisis,
saying they do not propose to cut
wages. James J. Farrell, presi-
dent of the U. S. Steel Corporation,
speaking for a large section of the
big bosses, yesterday said that wages
will not be cut.
Bond Electric.
Recently 700 workers in the Bond
Electric Co. in Newark, N. j., went
out on strike against drastic wage
cuts. This shows the growing re-
sistance of the workers. The boss
es had cut wages for the second
time. Ten per cent was cut off of
piece workers wages, and SO cents
to 81 from all other, workers. Many
Negro and Latin American workers
work in this plant. The bosses
called a meeting in an attempt to
break the strike. Four hundred
workers refused to return to work.
The Metal Workers Industrial
League, a section of the T.U.U.L.,
is organizing to spread the strike
against wage cuts.
No worker should be misled by
the propaganda in the capitalist
press about "no wage cuts" This
is the smoke screen to hide the ever
sharpening blow of drastic wage
cuts. 1t is an attempt to prevent
militant organization which is neces-
sary to fight these wage cuts.
The Slashes Continue.
Wages have already been cut.
They are being cut every day-in
the steel mills, auto plants, mines,
shops-everywhere. Here are a few
facts: The Anaconda Copper Co.
cut wages Is per cent, the National
Cash Register Co. cut wages 10 per
cent, the Youngstown Steel Co. cut
wages 10 per cent, hundreds Of tex
tile mills have cut wages from 10
to 80 per cent, the General Motors
have cut wages right and left. The
Daily Worker has reported hundreds
of mass wage cuts. All of these
wage cuts were accomplished with
the help of the A. F. of L. and the
Musteite takers. The workers are
showing growing resistance.
The Trade Union Unity League
is leading the struggle against wage
cuts, under the slogan of "Organize
and Strike Against Wage Cuts!"

trade in company stores, and not
allowed to quit.
In Alabama prison camps dogs
are trained to bite Negro prisoners.
No barrier is interposed to i'm
portation of mahogany lumber from
South Ameica, where convict and
peon labor is used to produce it.
There is no barrier contemplated
to import Of rubber from Harvey
Firestone's plantations in Liberia,
where the U. S. state department
gives it's approval to Firestone's
agreement with the Liberian cap
italist government by which he buys
slaves from the native chiefs for
one cent a day per man paid to the
chiefs.

PRAGUE Q.P.S.).-The severe
crisis in Czechoslovakia is compelling
the Czech bOurgeOisie to think of
concluding a trade agreement with
the Soviet Union, despite the fact
that Czechoslovakia is one of the
few remaining countries which does
not recognize the Soviet Union. A
considerable portion of the Czech
iron industry is working on Russian
orders, particularly in Vitkovitz.
The course of development and the
changed sentiment of the Czech
bourgeoisie are shown clearly in a
leading article published in the
Prayer Presse" which is tie semi
official organ OF the Czech Foreign
Minister Benes. The Prayer Presse''
writes the following:

rarian country into an industrial

adoption of this Bill; to organize
and strike against wage cuts. This
Bill must be popularized among the
workers. Every worker, on reading
it, will endorse it. 1t will lay the
basis for wider struggles for I'M
employment insurance. Today, in
the demonstrations against the i'm
perialist war danger, one Of the
chief tasks is to spread this Bill
among the workers. Organize them
to fight for it.
In Chicago the A. F. Of L. takers,
realizing the Importance of the
Communist Party move in setting
aside September LIST as Unemploy-
ment Day, have set in motion a
fake plan to fool the workers.
They have hired the Municipal
Stadium in Chicago for September

ing" This is an attempt to de-
fleet the growing fight for real I'M
employment insurance as provided
in the Bill advocated and drawn up
by the Communist Party.
Support the Bill for unemploy-
ment insurance. Fight for it.
Spread it among your shop mates.
Discuss it and demand its adoption.
