Poll Tax Used to
Bar Workers from
Voting in the South

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. - I say sure
that the whole mass of workers must
get in with all forces to vote for the
Communist Party. we find that so
long as the southern bosses will be
able to keep the workers deceived, so
long as he will keep lis hungry, no
food, no coal in winter, and may be
evtcted, let us gather in big masses
and demand real relief, clothes food,
no evictions, and coal.
we know that in the sweet system
that we are in, the Negro and white
workers have not chance to vote
for who they want. Because the boss
has taken all their laws themselves
and now they say we have no right to
vete. They say all workers must pay
their poll tax. You work and have
no money for poll tax. If you cannot
vote for who you want, you must
fight for the right to vote.
SO you all see why we In In the
South should put up fight. Nell.

sional committees have already beer

Smash Jim Crowism.
In Columbus, Ohio, the Unem-
ployed Council is preparing for a big
demonstration to smash the Jim
Crow practise of the Made Work
Relief Bureau who separate colored
and white workers on forced labor
jobs.
In Indianapolis the whole working
class has been stirred by an incident
which reflects the quality Of the So
called relief provided to the unem-
ployed in that city. An entire family
has been poisoned by the garbage
issued as relief and one member of
this family, 12-year old Helen May
Oliver has died as a result of eating
it. The anger of the masses has been
particularly aroused because this IL
year old child was neglected for two
days by the city hospital doctor who
was too busy taking care of paying
patients to give attention to this vic
tim of capitalist charity.
The International Workers Order
and the Unemployed Councils of In
dianapolis are arranging q public
hearing where the mayor and the re-
lief trustees will be placed on trial
for the murder Of this child.
In Terre Haute a misery IS month
ly food ticket is all the relief provided
to unemployed families. The I'm
employed Council in Terre Haute is
preparing to involve the workers in
bitter stubborn struggle for immedi-
ate relief and expects to send large
delegation of unemployed miners to
represent them in Washington when
Congress opens on December 5th.

The celebration of the 18th Ami
versary of the Russian Revolution
will also serve as mobilization for To-
cal struggles and the Hunger March

should be submitted for support of
the National Hunger March and these
resolutions rushed into the National
Once Of the Unemployed Councils
Immediately, at 30 E. 18th ST., Room

also be done at all other meetings
that take place and especially at all
final election rallies.
Additional copies of the resolution

tional Office of the Unemployed
Councils.
Special attention should now be
given to visiting all of the unions and

etc. must receive special attention.
Speakers must be sent to all of these
and their endorsement should be Sc

of the third battalion in the Moselle

In the train returning to Paris,
the first battalion began to sing the

other battalions took up the refrain,
and all the way from Epernay to

ling the workers that they must vote
for Hoover.
In many cases Mr.. Koch, the pres
ident of the Company called special
meetings of all the Department man
ayers, and some of the workers that
he knows are good Republicans and
stated that they must vote for Hoo
yer, and get their employees to vote
for Hoover.
During the 81 years Of the crisis
the Company has cut the wages OF
the workers more than times, with
some of the workers are working on
starvation wages now, where worker
workers overtime this Is never paid
to the workers, and some of the work
ers work as many as from 10 to IL
hours day for dollar and few
cents a day.
Mr.. Koch has not brought out that
under the Hoover administration he
cut the wages of the workers. But
he stated that in order that we can
keep our jobs we must vote for Hoo
yer. Some of the Department Man
ayers have went as far as giving hints
to the workers that they know who
will not vote for Hoover, that they
will lose their jobs.
But the main fact is that in this
store there are about 80 Negro adult
and young workers working, they
have been working there under the
smallest wages and also long hours.
The bosses have issued little Hoover

that they've got to wear these ON
