Attack Foreign-Born
Workers in Detroit;
a Bosses Maneuver

DETROIT, Feb. 28.-The city gov
eminent of Detroit has fired 748
laborers because they are not citi-
zens of the United States. This is
an attempt ON the part Of he city
authorities to divide the workers,
and stir up race hatred. Some of
the workers had been working FOR
the city for 25 years, Reports from
various sources indicate that the
number fired is much greater than
74S. The city authorities state they
will hire American citizens in the
place of the workers thrown out on
the streets. This is a vote-catchlng
scheme of the city authorities, and
an attempt to side-step the growing
demand for unemployment relief by
the 10000 jobless workers in De-
troit.

British Communist
Daily Worker" i'm
Call for March 9Th

From London, the heart of Bri-
fish Imperialism, comes the follow
ing from the British Daily Work
en-" organ of the Communist Party
of Great Britain, to the working
class of England to demonstrate on
March 6, International Fighting Day
against Unemployment.
Prepare for March 6, the great
international fighting day against
unemployment when the employed
and unemployed will join in mass
action on the streets against CAPT
talism and its labor government.
March will be a day of struggle
for the bread which capitalism
denies its victims. 1t will be a
joint struggle of the employed and
unemployed when the weaver, the
miner and the railman will raise
their demands alongside those of
the unemployed.
This character of March q. the
fact that it will be a day Of struggle
for the demands of the masses,
means that it will be direct at
tack on the Labor Government which
carries out the capitalist offensive
against the working class.

stratioi, IS a blow against the

the Workers. in their countries, arc
intensifying their campaign to pre-
cipitate a war against the Soviet

being manufactured in every coun-
try In order to engender anti-Soyiet

Of this growing capitalist attack.

ate lies about the mythical $780,

this world wide war drive against
the Soviet Union.
"The Department of Justice, as
the loyal tool of the capitalist class,
hopes also by this fake story to
demoralize the great unemployment
demonstra ton on March 9th. This
demonstration is world wide in char
acter. 1t will be shared in not only
by unemployed but also employed.
Many millions will participate in this
gigantic international protest and
struggle against unemployment. In
this country the strike and demon
stratior is being led by the Com
munist Party and the Trade Union
Unity League. The T.U.U.L. has
called upon all it's unions to cease
work and to participate in the de-
monstration. The lies of the Depart

from taking on great mass char

Unemployment spreads like a
poison weed. The American econo-
mic crisis is part of the general
world crisis of capitalism. Hoover's
scheme of pumping oxygen into de-
clining industry has failed utterly.
About seven million workers have no
jobs in the U.SA. The employers
and the government give them no
unemployment relief. The A. F. of l..
cooperates with the employers by
betraying the unemployed and max
ing no struggle for them. For the
unemployed workers it is a case of
fight or starve. On March 6, under
the lead of the revolutionary move
ment, they will demonstrate in great
masses all over the United States,
for social insurance, for the seven
h9ur day. and five-day week, for
wage increases, for defense of the
Soviet Union, etc. March 9th will
be- a red letter day in American labor
history,

of salt, and indicates that it is
probably somewhat padded by the
optimistic capitalists, that auto pro-
duction for 1880 will be 40 per cent
below 1929. This means at least 40
per cent unemployment in the auto
industry for the entire year!
Orders for structural steel last

pared to an average of $4,000 tons

Freight car loadings for the week
ended February Is dropped 65,901
cars below the same week last
year.
The Journal of Commerce (Feb.
81, 1930) commenting on the sharp
ening crisis in the steel industry
paint a black picture:
The outstanding observation
about the steel industry is that the
momentum gained during January
has all but petered out. Not only
are operations failing TO increase,
but at least a temporary recession
may be experienced in the next
week or two. Failure of the au-
tOmobile industry to buy steel in
the volume expected is the CHIEF
factor in bringing about his halt
ing condition. Those steel makers
who cater to the autOmotive ill.,
dustry are working at the lowest
ebb."
That the drop in steel production
has already affected employment
and is increasing the mass jobless
army in the steel centers is admitted
in a dispatch from Youngstown,
Ohio, to the Journal of Commerce
(Feb. y, 1930), which says;
New business coming to valley
steel mills has fallen off the past
10 days, producing moderate recess
sion in production, with some conse-
quent irregularity in employment.
In steel plants and rolling mills
there has been q slackening."
The facts of the growing crisis of
American capitalism puncture every
one of the lies of the imperialist
spokesman. First, the crisis is
sharpening, becoming deeper and
more chronic, with no prospect this
year of any appreciable upturn.
Second, there is no exception in any
Observation-Disclosures has eff
fected all workers, skilled and I'M
skilled, white and black, men and
women. Third, unemployment is
growing and will continue to grow.
The capitalists, attempt To shift
the burden Of the crisis on the backs
of the workers by drastic wage
cuts, lengthening of hours of those
working, intensification of speed-up
and naturalization, and attempts to
fight the unity Of the employed and
unemployed in their struggle for
unemployment insurance.
