Tense. Undoubtedly Dueweke's func-

Demonstrate Sept. /.
A mass demonstration for Sept,
/ is being called by the Trade Union
Unity League in Detroit to fight
for the Unemployment Insurance
Bill. This demonstration which will
expose the rotten tactics of the
A. F. of l.. fascist officials in aid
ing the bosses to cut wages, and to
evict jobless workers, will mobilize
a fight for the immediate passage
by congress of the Unemployment
Insurance Bill which provides a
minimum weekly payment of $25
per week
Green-Hoover.
NEW YORK.-As Sept. / ap-
proaches, Green follows in the foot
steps of Hoover and fakes the
unemployment figures of the A. F.
of L. This is done for the definite
purpose of keeping the workers
away from the mass demonstrations
called by the T.U.U.L. for "Unem-
ployment Day." Sept. 1, to demand
the passage of the Unemployment
Insurance Bill.
Green says that unemployment de-
creased three-tenths of one per cent
in the first few weeks of August.
What was Green's rush to publish
these figures? He usually does not
issue figures until the first of the
month. The bosses know that
hundreds of thousands of workers
have read and approved the Unem-
ployment Insurance Bill. They
know that on Sept. l there will be
nationwide mass demonstrations to
organize a monster movement to
force it through, against the bosses.
Hence, the A. F. of L. comes to the
defense by taking figures-in the
style of Hoover.
Hoover's figures have been COM
pletely smashed by boss tools on
the inside. Green's figures are
manufactured out Of the whole
cloth. Every building trades
worker knows, and the statistics
show that building construction
during the first weeks in August
dropped 80 per cent below July.
The production indexes of all cap
italist statisticians are at the low
est point in the present crisis. The
Department of Labor's latest fig
ures show drop of four per cent
in employment in July. Since then,
conditions have gotten worse.
Philadelphia.
Two mass unemployment demon
STATIONS will be held in Philadelphia
on Unemployment Day." Sept. l.
Both demonstrations are to take
place at 2;30 p. m. The places
chosen are Jefferson Square, 4th
and Federal SITS. and Mcpherson
Square, Kensington. Preliminary
preparations for these demonstra-
tons have been carried on in the
form of open air meetings, mass
leaflet distribution by the T.U.U.L.
and individual leaflet distribution
and general activity by the affili-
ated unions of the T.U.U.L.
The unemployment problem in
this city is very serious one. Re-
Gently one of the local corrupt poll
ticians "let the cat out of the bag"
by publicly admitting that at least
II per cent of the working popula-
ton were out of jobs. This started
controversy in the capitalist press,
who up to the present time pursued
the policy of minimizing the ex-
isting unemployment situation
through the issuance of lying state
ments.
Another factor in the recognition
of the seriousness of the existing
unemployment situation can be
found in the mass demonstration to
be held under the auspices of the
A. F. of L. in Shibe Park, on Sept.
z. The speakers scheduled to adj
dress the meeting are Senator Cope
land, of N. Y, VIM. Green, presi-
dent of the A. F. of L., Kennedy, of
the United Mine Workers of
America.
Although this meeting is adver-
tised as an anti-injunction demon
stration, it is well known fact to
the workers of this city that these
takers will utilize the demonstra-
ton as a means of making some
fake proposals for the purpose of
checking the growing militancy of
the more than 100000 unemployed
workers of this city.
The T.U.U.L. has taken the neces-
