UNEMPLOYED
SHOW A BIG
INCREASE
Dept. of Labor Figures
Admit IA Per Cent
Decline in Work
Wage Cuts Also Sho,cn
Bigger Battles Loom for
the Winter

WASHINGTON, Sept. 16.-A big
increase in the jobless army is
again recorded by the U. S. De-
partment of Labor figures for Au-
gust. AS we have pointed out
! time after. time in the Daily
Worker, the figures of the Depart
ment of Labor are to be looked
upon with extreme caution. On
many occasions we have proved
their deliberate taking. Yet even
these pf'uned, clipped and juggled
figures show a decline of IA per
cent in the number of employed
workers. More important still, out
of 39,S28 manufacturing concerns
reporting payrolls were cut 2.6 per
cent for one month. In one in
stance, where employment increased
the infinitesimal sum of 2-10ths of
one per cent, payrolls in these
plants dropped over one per cent.
The much-advertised Opening" of
the auto plants in August resulted
in further drop of nearly four
per cent in the working force. Sep
tember will show even greater drops
in employment than August, as
there will be a big drop in steel,
auto and building construction.
For over year now employment
has been steadily dropping, from
day to day, week to week, and
month to month. The figure of
total unemployment is well over
100000 and by winter will reach
of the figure of between 5000, 900
and 100000.
There is no indication whatever
of any ornamental upturn in the
present severe economic crisis not
only in the United States but on
world scale.
That wages are being cut whole
sale and that unemployment is
growing more severe cannot be de-
MED any more at this time by the
capitalist soothsayers. Even their
optimism is fading before the
spectre of bl1ckening crisis and the
most miserable winter ahead for
the workers yet known.
There must be big upward
sweep in the organization of both
employed and unemployed for the
demand of the passage of the I'm
employment Insurance Bill, advo-
Gated by the Communist Party. In
theelection campaigns, the Commu-
mist candidates are tearing away
the lies of the boss parties and
bringing forward the real issues

danger. Every worker must rally

and for the unrelenting fight for

10 Radium Deaths Call

NEW YORK.-The death Of
woman worker, Mrs. ma Stasi, Of
SIS Morris Avenue, Orange, Nj,
the sixteenth victim of radium
poisoning, must again sharply
bring to the attention of all
women workers the necessity of
organizing against exploitation.
According to the United States
census, of the 81 million girls and
women of 16 years of age and
upward, more than one-fourth are
engaged in work in stores, shops,
factories and offices. These ten
million women workers are miser-
ably underpaid, working as much
as IL hours a day in the mills.

The Communist Party is the
only Party in the present election
campaign which demands equal
pay for equal work, protection for
women workers as we'll as for all
workers, special privileges for
mothers before and after birth,
as in the Soviet Union. The
working women of the shops and
factories, offices and stores, must
organize around the Communist

Preliminary to Attack OH
All Workers

I NEW YORK.-From all sides a
series of attacks are being levelled
against the foreign-born workers.
The Tammany governor, Franklin
D. Roosevelt, supported by the
A. F. of L. fascist officialdom,
has written a letter to all con-
tractors on state working ordering
them to fire any foreign-born
workers who might be employed
by them.
Roosevelt who is being praised
by the A. F. of L. as "friend
Of labor" hopes to gain votes by
dividing the foreign-born and the
native born workers. This at
tempted division of the workers on
fake race lines is the preliminary
to a general attack on all work
ers and their standard of living.
1t must be vigorously fought.
Coupled with this is the declar-
alton of Harry E. Hull, commits
