Communist election campaign now
rises to high pitch in the state of
Ohio through series of great mass
meetings arranged for William z.
Foster, standard bearer of the Party,
it's nominee for president of the
United States.
Ohio has its hundreds of thousands
of unemployed. 1t has the strike
against wage cuts of 10000 miners
in the eastern counties. 1t has its
huge steel industry where, in Warren
and Youngstown especially, the new
Steel and Metal Workers Industrial
Union rallies for bitter fight
against unprecedented wage cuts and
more than so per cent unemploy-
ment.
Ohio workers will give the spokes-
man of the Communist Party, whose
election campaign is not one of
mere promises but is living part of
the daily struggle for the right to
eat, a tremendous reception.
Struggle for Relief.
Unemployment insurance at the
GhDSIlSC Vi D1lC SUolC c11O CillpAOSCloS
says the Communist platform, and
the Ohio workers know of dozens and
scores of hot struggles of the jobless
for relief and against evictions.
Against Wage Cuts
Against Hoover's Wage cutting
policy" says the Communist plat
form, and the Ohio workers will re-
member how Hoover gave the word,
and the steel companies took the lead
in sweeping 10 per cent wage cuts,
one after the other.
Against Terror
Against capitalist terror" says the
Communist platform, and the Ohio
workers have before them the spec
tacle of militia rushed into East Ohio
mine fields by the Democratic Party
Governor White, where they sprayed
machine gun bullets on picket lines
of men fighting against starvation,
where they sprinkled tear gas bombs
from airplanes on miners and their
wives and children, where they
broie the strike, and forced thou
santls of miners down to further
staJFation, in a field soaked with the
bloon of three miners killed by bull
lets.

hand in the Public So. at 7:30, at a
needing prepared for by parades
through the city beforehand, and by
numerous preliminary open air
meetings.

Exposing Democrats.
Right in the midst of the Foster
campaign in Ohio, on Thursday in
+, Columbus in speeches, he will point
/ to the policy of the Democratic Party
governor of Ohio, who cut off relief
in the mine strike area to starve the
miners children until their fathers
would go back to work with a wage
cut. He will denounce Governor
Whites consistent campaign of ter
ror, and his collaboration with the
United Mine Worker chiefs for strike
breaking purposes. The state admin
istration ordered mass picketing
stopped in the mine strike, and the
U.MWA. leaders enforced this edict.
Organize and Fight.
Foster will call on miners to join
the National Miners Union, for steel
workers to join the new Steel and
Metal Workers Industrial Union, for
shop and mine committees of action
to fight wage cuts, and for unity of
the struggle of jobless and workers.
