frightened because he did not ap-
pear after several hours, his wife
sent their daughter to look for him.
In the cellar, swinging from a stair
way, his stiff body already cold, his
daughter found him and ran
screaming to tell her mother.
His death will not help his fam
lily. They still face starvation. A
class-conscious worker does not let
the bosses and their rotten govern
ment kill him in this way. Over
100000 workers find themselves
in this workers situation-jobless,
families starving and no jobs avail
able. The bosses like to see work
ers get rid of themselves this way.
1t is less troublesome for them. But
this is not the way to achieve any
thing for the working class. We
must organize and fight.
Force the bosses to grant unem-
ployment insurance. Line up and
fight for the Unemployment Insur-
ance Bill.

JERSEY CITY, N. j., Aug. %
Unable to feed his five children
because he had been out of a job
for long time, John Goceliak, 81
years old, committed suicide at his
home by hanging. He was found
dead by his 14-year-old daughter
Mary.
Goceliak had spent nearly all his
life producing profits for the bosses.
He worked for "a long time as
laborer on the docks of the Central
Railroad of New Jersey. On May
/ he was laid off. Since that time
he tramped the streets, day after
day, looking for work. He could
not find any. He saw his children
slowly starving, and could not bear
it.
Despondent and nerve-racked by
the sight of his starving children,
Goceliak told his wife, Mary, that
he had some work to do in the cellar
early in the morning. Becoming

Frightful Jobless Con-
dition Sure For
Winter
Youngstown Mills Cut
Wages For End Time
Must Extend Fight For
Jobless Insurance.;
T.U.U.L. Leads

Wholesale shutdowns in the basic
industries, with hundreds Of thou
sands to be thrown into the ranks
of the 100000 already unem-
ployed, together with heavy wage
cuts for those left on the job, is
the prospect of all workers as Sept.
LIST approaches.
The latest wage-cut is that given
to 5000 workers in the steel indus
try, with the aid of the A. F. of L.
fascist leaders of the Amalgamated
Association of Iron, Steel and Tin
Workers. The iron puddlers in the
Youngstown mills are having their
rates cut 70 cents on a ton. This
is the second wage-cut given these
workers within the past six months.
All workers should recall the lying
statement of the president of the
Youngstown Sheet & Tube Co., Mr..
Campbell, who on June 81 said: eve
are unalterably opposed to any re-
auctions in wages"
Announcements have already been
made by Iron Age, organ of the
U. S Steel Corporation, that the
wages of 100000 steel workers will
soon be cut. 1t is against this
growing wage-cut drive, and against
the drastic extent of unemployment
that the Sept. LIST demonstrations
will mobilize mass movement of
the workers, employed and unem-
ployed, to fight for the passage of
the Unemployment Insurance Bill.
The whole fabric of Green's lying
statement about Improvement"
employment is completely smashed
by the latest figures and facts pub
lished in the capitalist press. The
McGraw-Hill Co., building statish
clans, report that during the past
week building contracts awarded
dropped 80 per cent below the pre-,
vlous week; they dropped II per
cent below the same week last year.
This shows a virtual stoppage Of
building activit-. According to the
A F. of L. figures, over SO per cent
of the building trades workers are
already unemployed. The number
will soon jump to 60 per cent, and
even greater.
A radio report over the Detroit
station, WMBC, foretells the clos
ing down of the Ford plant. The
radio announcer stated that "a big
auto plant here" is going to close
down. Most of the other plants are
working on part time and will also
shut down soon. Thousands of
workers have already been ct
of Fords and other plants. Accord
ing to a report to the FEEDER ated
Press, 10000 Ford workers were
fired since the plant starred up

NEW YORK.-Shall 1870 per-

Revenue classifies as those few
among the 122,000,000 people in the
United States with incomes of over
100000 each, continue to draw

$4,903, 1885, 1853, while the rest of the
'22,000,000 are living in poverty,

This is one question placed by the
communist Party before the work

above $4,000, to pay all unem-

HANKOW, Aug. 29.-An armed

capital of Human, which is defend
ed" only by 5000 Marking soldiers
who are unpaid and seething with
discomfort. 1t is reported that the

The United States gunboat Palos,
which shelled Changsha when the
city was in the hands of the workers

is again in the Slang River near
Changsha. 1t is there waiting to
do the dirty job of helping Chang

Imperialists, missionary dopesters,
Chinese landlords and capitalists,
are fleeing from the city. They know
that the unprecedented white terror
which was inflicted upon the poor
population of Changsha after tht
reentry of Ho Chen in Changsfa
a few weeks ago, when an average
of $50 were executed daily, have en-.

Call For Soviets

The overthrowal of Siles, in
Bolivia and Leguia in Peru, has
echoed throughout all Latin Amer

appears that at any moment the
relationships in other sections, par
ticularly in Brazil, is on the point
of falling before a mass rising.
The Irigoyen regime in Argen-

is tottering. All Latin America is
in ferment, and the rival imperial
isms, British and America, are STIR
ring their native politicians and
militarists to activity exactly the
same as in China.
In Brazil, however, there is a
vastly different situation than in
Bolivia and Peru or Argentina. The
Communist Party of Brazil is
schooled in struggle and has great
masses following it, with experience
gained in three armed movements.
When word comes that there is
revolution in Brazil, every Amer
lean worker should be ready to aid
and defend that force which is sup
ported or led by the Communist
Party of Brazil.
Brazil has 100000 population
and is one of the worlds largest
countries, 4,500,000 square miles. 1t
produces coffee in great quantity,
rs per cent of the worlds coffee.
Besides, it produces rubber for
Henry Ford; great wood, fruit and
mining enterprises. British imper-
ialism dominates, with American
imperialism striving to displace it.

March, 1880, two forces disputed

years ago they have steadily in
creased in popularity" said Miss
Blanche Lee, state leader of home
demonstration agents. She said
that the first camps, two in num-
Der, we're held in 1922 with only
four counties represented and a
total attendance OF 88 women.
This past summer 10 camps, rep
'resenting So counties, were held
with a total attendance of 3,057
women.
The first camps had, as their
detectives, summer vacation for
rural women, strengthening OF
home demonstration projects, Gre
alton of interest in new projects
and a means of exchanging ideas
among rural women from differ
ent communities. Because extern
sion service workers believe the
regular home demonstration pro-
jects cover that phase of the work
very thoroughly the vacation
camps have specialized more in
recreation, community leadership
and music appreciation during the
last few summers.

Bradford of the American Play
