Material

(Member of the Imprisoned Unemployed
Delegation
HAYWOOD BROUN, darling of Park Avenue
IL and Greenwich Village two months social
ist," candidate for congress on the socialist"
ticket in the Seventeenth silk stocking" dis
trict, appeared few days ago before Tam
manys fake employment bureau-which, by the
way, Norman Thomas clain credit for help
ing the Tammany grafters to organize. The
object of Mr.. Broun for coming down to the
"poor people, was if you please, in order to
Investigate" TO 'study," to gather valuable
information" about the unemployment situa-
ton.
Mr.. Broun has been $50 interested in the
unemployed that he himself had opened spe-
cal correspondence bureau for unemployed
under the firm name Give Job Till June"
is NY If arnears. beginning to Investigate. :"
Mr.. Broun must have been very much sur
prlsed to find so many thousands of unem-
ployed in line Is it possible that his bureau
has now solved the unemployment question?
And is it possible that in the month of August
which happens to be after June there should
still be unemployment?
Oh DEAR oh dear
Well, nobody can say that Mr.. Broun hasn't
discovered something while Investigating" the
unemployed in line. Of course, he hasn't taken
the trouble to find out how many dozens Ct
jobs Tammany is offering to the tens of thou
sands of unemployed and at what low wages
the handful of jobs is offered. These are
mere trifles with which only Communists can
occupy themselves. People like Broun, par
ticularly after entering the socialist" ranks,
interest themselves in higher things" And
so Mr.. Broun mas discovered that beautiful
blond with long hair was in line and-imagne
how wonderful-she actually received job
with a hair tonic company! Oh. praise to
Tanmany, and to Reverend Norman Thomas,
its prophet! The unemployment bureau is
working miracles
One Fellow viii Get Relief
With ssuch valuable material at hand we are
sure Mr.. r 'our will rot rive up his FIGHT for
the unemployed. He will surely elaborate
enormously on the hair tonic affair and will
write reams of "clever" stuff, and will sell it
to the capitalist press at SO much a column
to the joy IF the Park Avenue ladies among
whom such stuff is greatly in demand By
reading Br ,un's story about the blonde they
will sigh With reIief-at last the terrible I'M
employment question is being solved and will
go about enjoying life with more confidence.
Nobody will dare to deny that Mr.. Broun's
analysis of the unemployment situation, be-
ginning W h the slogan Give Job Till June"
Grover Whal>n, they were sent back to look
for real jobs.
Probably this film will be sent to the back
woods to show how kindhearted Walker and
Whalen were in receiving the iobess and that
the Communists were lying when they say
Walker wouldn't see the Unemployed Delega
ton. When real Red demonstration happens,
the cops bust the cameras.
Since Murooney's cops have been given
training in burlesque dramatics, it appears he
needs another thousand to &c into the movies
More likely of course to "prcparc" for bus
