Red Candidates in
New Brunswick

NEW BRUNSWICK, N. j., April 10.
To rally the workers of this city
behind the Communist candidates for
city commissioners, an open air mass
election rally will be held here April
18th, 7:30 p. m, at French and New
Streets.
A leaflet issued by the election COM
mittee of the Communist Party, IL
Plum Street, shows up the growing
wage cut drive, unemployment and
starvation, and gives the Communist
program for fighting these attacks Of
the bosses. The leafiet says:
I'm the General Cigar; D. F. Kline;
johnson & Johnson, Needle Trades
Unger Box, and other factories en-
ploying women the conditions are IN
bearable. The women get wages be-
tween eight and ten dollars week,
in a few cases a little more. Most
of these women are the sole support
of their family. In the General Cigar
factory where many women and
young girls work the health of the
workers is ruined. Workers faint
every day in the shop. With few
years work in the General Cigar the
workers get consumption and other
diseases.
The bosses themselves admit that
go per cent of the workers in New
Brunswick are women. The women
workers are forced to do the work
done before by men for half the
wages. On account of such condi-
tons the men workers are forced
to work for lower wages, being Away;
told by the bosses that I'VE can get
women to do your work for lower
wages" The only solution for the
workers are for both men and womer
to unite in the fight against wage
cuts, demanding that women workers
get equal pay as men for doing equa,
work,
Two workers, candidates for City
commissioners, one woman cigar
worker and one man worker have al
ready filed petitions for this Office
These workers are endorsed by the
Communist Party and are pledged
to carry out the Program Of the Com
munist Party. which include amongs
its demands the following;
I. Immediate unemployment relief
2. Equal pay for equal work for al
workers. 3. Special protection fol
women workers in the shop. 4. Fret
milk and food in school for the chill
dren of the unemployed. 5. Lowel
rents. 6. Old enough to work, oil
enough to vote. The right of y0un,
workers to vote.

HARLEM REFORMISTS IN FAKE
UNEMPLOYMENT PARADE TODAY
Using Slogan of Unemployed Relief to Trap
Negro Workers and Divert Them from
Struggle Against Starvation

gro reformists are opposed to the
Negro workers joining the mass rev.
dictionary struggle against starva-
ton and for unemployment relief
and insurance, to be paid by the
bosses and their government and dis
tributed by committees of Negro and
white workers.
These treacherous reformistS are
also opposed to the struggle against
lynching and persecution of Negro
and foreign-born workers. They are
at present in open cooperation with
the slave driving boss lynchers of
Alabama, who are railroading eight
Negro youths to the electric chair on
a framed-up charge of raping two
white prostitutes. At their mass
meeting last Sunday in AbysSinia
Baptist Church they raised not a
single protest against this latest out
rage of the Southern bosses against
the Negro workers. In none of the
leaflets and papers they have issued
have they uttered the slightest pro-
test. Their newspaper organs, the
Amsterdam News, the New York Age,
the Negro World, etc, have either
maintained absolute silence on this
murderouS frame-up or have eX-
pressed the views of the Southern
bosses. The Negro World has ig-
nored altogether this case involving
the lives of eight Negro youths, all
under 20 years of age, and of the
ninth, 14-year-old lad, whose trial
has been postponed.
Negro workers! Repudiate the
traitors! Do not be deceived by
their slogans of race loyalty" of
which their conception is loyalty of
the masses to the rent gougerS and
parasites. Join hands with the rev.
dictionary Negro and white workers
in militant demonstrations on May
First in Union Square against star
walton, wage-cuts, prosecutions, for
defense of the Soviet Union, the
fatherland of ALL workers, and for
the right of the Negro majorities of
Africa, the West Indies and the
Southern Black Belt to determine
and control their own form of gov
eminent. Down with Imperialism! !
Down with the white and Negro
agents! On with the struggle for
Negro liberationl

WORKERS STRIKE
For Better Conditions
in Laundries

SAN FRANCISCO, Calf, April IA.
Two hundred and fifty Chinese
laundry workers here, members of the
Shi Flu Tang (Chinese Laundry

today. The strike was called to de-
mand reduction in working hours
from Is to IL hours day; for Sum-
day off; for seven days notice be-
fore discharge; for raising the wages
of apprentices from $130 for five
months to 100; for accident insur-
ance; for recognition of the union
and other demands.
At meeting of shop delegates
Sunday strike committee was
elected Of 10 members, including the
two representatives of the Trade
Union Unity League. Picketing is
being organized at a general strikers
meeting tonight.
The local capitalist press is al
ready carrying lying Scareheads
about heavily armed pickets and
Communist plots, trying to cover up
the police who on the first day of
the strike arrested four Chinese
strike organizers. The greatest mill
fancy, determination and enthusiasm
characterize the strikers spirit.
The strike involves a number Of
/ Chinese laundrieS.
The bosses tried to break the strike
and fooled Negro and Japanese
workers into working in place of the
strikers. But after being told about
the strike by the strikers and men,
bers of the revolutionary trade
unions, who support the strike, they
quit work Immediately to show their
solidarity.
Many workers organizations will

decided to contribute 10 per cent OF
the proceeds of it's anniversary dance
to be held April "a at Manhattan
Lyceum to the strikers.
