jObLESS RESIST
COPS At MEET
Over 1000 Listen to
Demand For Relief

NEW YORK.-Attempts by the
Tammany sluggers to break up an
unemployed mass meeting Friday,
at 8 a. M, in front of the Gree"
Employment Agency, where thou
sands were vainly waiting in line
for jobs, was met with jeers, boos
and strong resistance by over one
thousand unemployed workers.
When the cops tried to drag Sam
Nesin, secretary of the greater New
York Unemployed Council, from the
speakers stand, the jobless workers
moved in and yelled out, "Let him
speak," sect away from there"
Despite the efforts of. the cops to
smash the meeting, the meeting
was held. An Unemployed Coun-
Gil, composed of over 400 jobless
workers who attended the previous
meeting, conducted the demonstra
ton. The speakers were Sundos, an
unemployed worker; Philip Harri-
son, an unemployed ex-serviceman,
the father of four children; H.
Williams, an unemployed Negro
worker, and Sam Nesin.
The vicious lying of the boss press
was exposed when Nesin read the
accounts of the previous days meet
ng. The unemployed roared with
aughter when the report in the
apitalist press was read about the
unemployed workers ignoring the
meeting; and that the speakers
addressed the crowd from "a motor
car"
After repeated attempts to break
the reeting, on all sorts of fake
excuses, the cops again backed out
and let the speakers go on. All OF
the speakers demanded the passage
of the Workers Social Insurance
Eli. This was greeted with unani.
nous approval from the unemployed
workers in the crowd. They were
told that the bin demanded socia
insurance for all unemployed work
ers; that the war funds be turned
over tc the unemployed, and that
fortunes of $4,000 and over BE-
levied on, we'll as the demand
that a graduated income tax BIZ
placed on all incomes of $4,000 anc
over to create a social insurance
fund.
At the close of the meeting about
800 unemplo. ed marched down tc
Manhattan Lyceum where another
hundred re ;istered with the Unem.
ployed Council.
Delegates were elected to the
Trade Union Unity Council. 1t was
decided to participate in a body in
the Sacco-Vanzetti demonstration,
and also to prepare for the Septem-
Der First Unemployment Day
demonstration to mobilize a fight
for the Workers Social Insurance
Bill. Thousands Of leaflets were
distributed ard many copies of the
Daily Worker were handed out and
] sold. +n@ ~ea

NEW YORK.-The New York

Immediate Relief.
The local district organizer of tn ,
T.U.U.L. also demands that the
bloated Tammany city officials sal
aries be halved, and that surplus in
tx city treasury, half of the funds
used for the labor hating courts and
police, and all of the funds set aside
for military purposes (armories,
etc. should be used for immediate
relief of the jobless.
AS leaders of the workers

es to consult with them on the de
tails of the present huge organiza
ton drive of the T.U.U.L., and the
campaign to accumulate an Organ.

Plans Go Forward.
The Trade Union Unity Council
is going ahead with plans to make
effective demand for these relief

linquish the demand to see the lead
ers of the unemployed and the mill
tant workers confined by Tam

zenly railroaded trials in history.

ter by prima donna in Italy, a
daughter by an actress in America
and almost a son by a charming
English lady-almoSt, because the
boy who came to Sir Basil'S house
in the capacity of prospective heir
was told by his Squeamish mother
at the last minute that his real
father had been a gallant army
officer, who had died on the field
of battle.
Plucked from the maternal nest
by Sir BaSil'S scouting solicitor,
these three children, all rather
bewildered at finding themselves half
British. formed a league amongst
themselves to see II they approved
of their "illegitimate" parent. And
in the course of the play, pampered
and spoiled by Sir Basil, who was
delighted to find that they were
far ahead of anybody elSe's children,
they came to find him a most salts
factory father and one whom they
could tease by reminding him of
bis Beau Brummel-ish past.
Walter Gilbert, advanced in years
