MILWAUKEE JOBLESS DEMAND
AN END TO FORCED LABOR
SOCIALISTS BACK
SLAVE PROGRAM
Cops Attack Jobless
Demanding Relief

MILWAUKEE, Wis, Sept. a. -
While the socialist and Non-Partisan
politicians on the County Board here
we're pushing through the economy
program, which means forced labor
for unemployed workers, more than
5000 workers under the leader
ship of the Unemployed Council
demonstrated in front of the Court
House against forced labor and for
so cents an hour for all jobless work
ers who were working for the county.
Cash relief of $12 week for all
workers was also demanded by the
workers.
When committee of fifteen that
had been elected to present the de-
mands to the County Board were
refused adnnittance, hundreds of
workers damned into the corridors of
the Court House in spite of the eff
forts of hundreds of policemen and
detectives to hold them back.
Demonstrate in West Allis
A demonstration of 700 workers in
West Allis on Friday followed the
demonstration on Wednesday before
the Relief Bureau there in a demand
for immediate relief for Chick
Borden. After the demonstration at
the Bureau, the workers marched to
the Office of the socialist supervisor,
Buech, in police station and pre-
sented to him thei rdemand that
Borden be given immediate relief
and that the police terror against the
unemployed be stopped.
The police attacked the demonstra-
ton, but the workers fought back
militantly, four being arrested and
three being held for court trial on
Sept. 8.
A joint demonstration will be held
by the Unemployed Council and the
International Labor Defense tomor-
row at Central Park to protest
against the attack.
Last week unemployed workers also
held demonstrations before the Office
of the socialist supervisor Tucker and
before the office Of Supervisor Met

scheme.
At all these demonstrations, the

FORD URGES AID
TO FARM STRIKE
Calls On Farmers to
Lead Own Struggle

MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, Sept. A
call to the striking farmers to take
their struggle into their own hands
and carry it on to a victory, was
given TOO who gathered here Friday
in Yeomans Hall to hear James w.
Ford, candidate of the Communist
Party for Vive-P President of the
United States.
Ford urged the farmers to broaden
their action to include tax strike
and mass resistance to foreclosures
and evictions for non-payment of
taxes or on mortgages.
Ford pointed to the Communist
Party's platform demand for "emer-
gency relief for the poor farmers,
without restrictions by government
and banks; exemption of poor farm
ers from taxes, and no forced collec-
ton of rent or debts" He called on
the farm strikers to fight for this
proposal and to vote Communist in
this election to show they were for it.
Ford assailed the Farmer Labor
Party betrayals of workers and farm
ers in Minnesota, and called for mill
tant mass struggle for unemployment
insurance and against wage cuts.
He hailed the successes of the
Minneapolis workers in fighting evic-
lions and by mass struggle compel
lsing the abolition of forced labor for
lrelief.
u Ford also pointed out that the
united front, rank and file leadership
and mass picketing by thousands, had
smashed the attempt to cut the union
wage scale for building trades work.

scale struggle led by the new
Steel and Metal Workers In
dustrial Union. In the opinion
of all this victory establishes the S.
M. w. /. U. firmly in the Mahoning

The main demand of the strikers
was for withdrawal of the wage cut.
Other demands we're for recognition

also the unemployed, met Friday and
voted that inasmuch as the main de-
mand had been conceded by the
company, and a victory won, the
strike should be officially ended, with
a call to all workers in the mill to
continue organizing to resist future
wage cuts.
The strike was prepared for by or
ganization of groups in all depart
ments during the last several weeks
in the Trumbull plant Of the Repub-
lie Steel 1t was precipitated by an
official statement of the mill manage
ment that on Sept. a wage cut Of
6 per cent would go into effect, under
the sliding scale contract the Anal
gamated has with the company. The
strike vote was taken at a mass
meeting of 5000 steel workers in

attacks against the striking rank and

PAY
| ON GOVT WORK
1896 to $13 a Week for
Skilled Workers
BY LEO GRULIOW

WASHINGTON, D. c., Sept. o.
Skilled workers employed under gov
eminent contract are being paid
ear-starvation wages ranging from
1896 to S13 week.
Weekly pay slips listing such pay
ments, gathered from employees of
the plant of Sigmund Eisner at Red
Bank, N. j., are on the desk of Assis-
tant Secretary of War Payne.
They were put there by the Wash
ington Daily News, one of the
Scripps- Howard liberal newspapers,
in an attempt to boost slumping
summer circulation and to show how
friendly the Scripps- Howard papers
are to labor How friendly they are
to labor may be judged by the fact
that the United Press, owned by the
same people as the Scripps- Howard
papers, has just cut wages of all
employees 10 per cent.

The suspension of the DAILY WORKER
would be terrible blow to the working class that
is showing an increased determination to fight
back against the capitalist hunger and war drive
At moment when masses of workers are in
action and other masses ready to go the Daily
faces the worst crisis we have ever known.
We are doing everything within our power
to avert this disaster. We are determined that
nothing shall be left undone to prevent the CAPT
talists winning such an easy victory as the sus-
pension of the Central Organ of our Party at
time when it is needed more than ever; at time
when the workers in the Ohio steel mills have
won the first victory in that industry against
wage cuts, at time when the Illinois miners are
fighting against wage cuts and hunger, at time
when the Anthracite miners are faced with an
other wage cut to which they will certainly reply
by strike action, at time when the farmers of
the Middle West are fighting against the bankers
and railroad magnates who try to inflict hunger
upon them, at time when the frenzed drive to-
ward imperialist war is meeting with increasing
resistance-at such time, of all times, this
paper is needed to help give guidance and to di-
rect into effective channels the growing move
ment against hunger and war.

of capitalism to suspend we would go down with
our coors flying. Such suspension would be no
disgrace, but episode in the revolutionary
struggle. We would fight to come back stronger
