After his release from arrest
in Akron by the police who re-
Gently murdered the unemployed
council member Olari for opposing an
eviction, Ford spoke to big meetings
in Youngstown and Cleveland.
Ford arrived in Youngstown worn
out from the sleepless night in the
hands Of the Akron police.
1000 Steel Workers.
But with thousand steel workers
listening to every word, with the hall
crowded full and scores waiting out
side to hear what they could, Ford
launched a smashing attack on the
capitalist system that is slashing the
steel workers wages in Democratic
Party controlled Ohio and in Repub-
lican Party controlled Indiana, alike.
Speaking to hundreds of the job
less who took part in the city hunger
march the week before, Ford called
on them to continue their struggle
for relief in Youngstown, and mean
while to organize deep down among
the jobless and in every neighbor-
hood and among the part-time work
ers in every mill, committees of &C
ton to fight wage cuts and prepare
a great movement to support the Ma
tional Hunger March on Washing
ton. The National Hunger March
columns come through Youngstown
and pick up the Youngstown delega-
ton, Nov 30.
Big Nov. Celebration.
Ford told Of the Soviet Union, the
country without unemployment OF
wage cuts because workers rule there
and called all Youngstown workers tc
fight for such a system here, and tc
support the Communist election pro-
gram by coming in hundreds to the
Nov. celebration of the anniversary
of the BolsheYik Revolution. 1t will
be held here in two halls, Lithuanian
Hall, Franklin Ave, and in Fora Club
Room, 525 West Rayen St., at 7:3C
p. m. Monday.
Other speakers at this meeting were
Abe Lewis, Negro worker and Com
munist candidate for county sheriff
Frank Rogers, Communist section or
ganizer and leader of the city hunger
march, and Mike Johnson, organizer
Of the Steel and Metal Workers In
dustria1, Union who was chairman.
In Cleveland, 1900 heard Ford Fri
day, brand Hoover's speech here OF
Oct. Is as an attempt to conceal
American capitalist responsibility fol-
the misery of the jobless and wage
cut workers.
Ford showed that while Hoover
blameS the crisis on the foreigner and
claims in the same breath that he
has stopped the crisis here, the nun
bers of the unemployed are greater
in America than in any other country
and they get less relief.
5 Negroes Murdered.
Along with this goes, right here in
Ohio, vicious persecution of the
iobless and particularly of the Ne
groes.
HaylOrQ ana JACKSON, TWO Negro
members Of the unemployed council
were shot to death by Cleveland po-
lice on October 6, last year. A few
months ago a Negro worker was
lynched in Ironton, Ohio. In Gin
cinnati a Negro worker was murdered
for absolutely no reason at all by q
policeman, and shortly before. a
frameup rape case was started
against another Negro worker named
Clayton.
Ohio has Democratic Party adj
ministration. This is it's treatment OF
the Negroes and the unemployed
Against this, Ford raised the Com
munist demand for united front
struggle of both races for complete
Negro equality and self-deternination
in the Black Belt.

Left Labor Party Man
Lays Basis for Arrest
of Wal Harrington

LONDON, England, Nov. 1.-The
struggle on two main fronts, Of the
British workers against wage-cuts
and cuts in the unemployment dole,
continued today.
In both cases labor traitors,
brothers Of the American Socialist
Party, are busy trying to smash the
workers resistance.
In Lancashire. where 100000 cotton
spinners are now out on strike, Off
Gals of the union met with the en-
ployers and planned new compro-
mise. Meanwhile, though the union
local meetings have rejected the 8
per cent wage-cut which these off
Gals previously agreed on with the
employers, the officials have started
taking a referendum on strike and
will try to enforce an obsolete union
bylaw that four -fifths majority is
needed for a strike. There is grave
suspicion that they may also mis-
count the ballot enough to make out
that over one-fifth of the votes are
against strike.
Harrington Arrested.
In London the police raided the
National Hunger March Committee
headquarters today and arrested Wal
Harrington, Communist and leader
of the march of 1000 delegates OF the
3,500,000 British unemployed. The
jobless delegates sent Harrington to

Meanwhile in the Parliament Nc

great cheers from the Tories by re-
marking sadly, that he regretted the

basis for the use of force by the
police against the marchers.

the cabinet then began to plan ways
and means to eject the marchers
from London.

CLOTH MARKET QUIET

NEW YORK, Feb. S).-The
coarse yarn cloths markets today were
relatively quiet, with Trlces showing
little change from previous levels.
There was some movement of sheet
ings, and occasional good orders for
some print cloth styles for nearby
contracts. Drills were fairly active
and there was occasional movement OF
some styles of pocketing twills. Broad
cloths were taken sparingly. The
opinion seemed to be that the print
cloth market was awaiting final con-
firmation of plans for production con-
troll, with the belief general that a
final announcement on this matter
would set in motion a buying move
ment which has been held in abeyance
for some time.
