FURTHER SLASH
In CITY RELIEF
Harlem Families Cut
Fifty Per Cent

NEW YORK.-A further cut in re-
lief for the starving unemployed in
this city has already taken place at
the order of the Mckee government,
the Lower Harlem Unemployed Coun-
Gil proved yesterday.
This has been done by keeping the
relief budget stationary although the
requests for relief are mounting daily.
In consequence, each family receiving
relief finds itself getting less and less
relief every week.
The Lower Harlem Unemployed
Council yesterday accompanied 10
workers families to the Home Relief
Bureau on East 125th st. and de-
manded that the Bureau rescind the
so per cent cut in relief which had
recently been imposed on the families
by the Bureau. The Unemployed
Council also demanded that the Bu-
reau pay the rent of the unemployed
workers on w 18th st.
The answer of Moore. Superintend-
ant of the Bureau, was: Il had a
meeting with the Welfare Commits
sioner today and @=s.Ied him to raise
the budget, but he refused to do so
For weeks I have been yelling for
more money, but while the budget
of this office remains the same, we
have been getting from so to rs new
applications for relief daily. I don't
care if I lose my job but I will say

espionage service in America, headed
by Won Papen, now dictator of Ger
many and run in San Francisco by
Consul Won Ropp, who was convicted
of many bombings, declared he had
proof that the German Kaisers spies
set the preparedness day bomb. He
stated the bomb was placed by a spy
named Frederick Hinsh, alias Gran
Dor

may or may not be true. He says he
was hired to place the suitcase con-
tanning the bomb at Stuart and Mar
ket Streets, did not know it was a
bomb, and did not say anything about
it until now because his parents were
strictly Seventh Day Adventists who
would have objected to his working

of the Kaiser's spies who hired Cal

His story is evidence at least better
