)plOyed and standard bearers OF
Communism, many standing in
the aisles because there were
no more seats, held the Red
Rally last night. They ratified
the Communist candidates.
William z. Foster, Communist
candidate for governor, and Israel
Amter, Communist candidate for
Congress, were speakers from the
March 9th unemployment demon

yesterday from six months in jail.
Letters from two other members of
the delegation, Robert Minor, edi-
tor of the Daily Worker and Com
munist candidate for Congress, and
Harry Raymond, unemployed work
er, were read. Raymond is held in
prison for four months more, and
Minor is in the hospital.
"Vote Communist, for unemploy-
ment relief and organize to fight
all attempts of the bosses to throw
the burden of this growing crisis on
the workers and jobless," was the
keynote of the rally.
Militant action dragged from
Tammany and from Hoover such
sops as they now throw to the job

relief for the unemployed. The
workers must fight the whole capt.

committee" Woods accepted.
Hoover's fake hunger and cold"
committee, consisting of the official
cabinet liars, headed by the Wall
Street banker and secretary of
commerce, Lamont, met today to de-
wise means of fighting against the
demands of the 100000 unem-
ployed for iobless insurance.
Before this meeting, Hoover had
conference with group of bust
ness men. The Indiana banker, N.
A. Perry, who was present, told
Hoover that the crisis will last at
least three years longer.
The main task of these takers so
far has been to publish a lot Of
fantastic figures about millions to
be spent on public works. This is
the same hoax that Hoover and La
mont have been putting forward
for nearly a year, and which has
not reduced the unemployed army

AS exposed yesterday in the Daily
Worker, the Hoover "hunger COM

befuddle the workers into thinking
that the bosses intend to do some
thing to "relieve unemployment"

Young Drivers Responsible

youthful drivers is growing, is the
opinion of M. E. Foltz. claim agent of

cidents, just completed by the insur-
ance company, shows that young

client than his elders. Two thousand

noted in each mishap.
The dangerous age" says Mr.. Foltz]
is between IS and 20. Eighteen-year-
old drivers were in lis accidents. out Of

accidents participated in by IS to 20

Besides preventing the entry of

are now thirteen such rooms, which

Make Immense Book
Telephone Companies In This
Country Now Issue 3,100
Books Annually

Telephone directories in some Of
the larger cities of the country now
contain so many names and numbers
that it has become necessary to issue
these books in more than one volume.
An enterprising newspaper man on
the Boston Post has figured out that
if all Of the 3,100 separate issues Of
33,000,000 copies of directories issued
annually in the United States were
combined in one volume, it would con-
tain 100000 lines printed on $4,000
pages and would be eleven feet thick.
To keep the names, addresses and

les up to date, necessitates 100000

used annually.

bers of all the books printed by the

on 5000 pages. These companies now
issue sc different directories twice a
year, with total of l,5S7,0O0 copies.
In the course of year about $4,000
changes are necessary to keep the list
