{ BY a Worker Correspondent
WAUKEGAN, Ill.-In two months
the workers of Waukegan and North
Chicago have joined the Unemployed
Council by the hundreds. This
month we prevented an eviction OF
a Communist. -Four hundred work.
ers attended the protest meeting and
the chief of police was there but was
afraid to do anything in face of these
workers.
On June 18th, the chief and sixty
dicks and Legionnaires threw furni-
ture of poor workers family out on
the street. The U. G. promptly put
it back. When the meeting was over
about thirty workers were attacked
and II of them were Jailed. The
police were armed with tear gas
bombs, machine guns, etc.
I went to Jail to see them and
could not find one of them. Four of
the workers, including a Negro wom-
an worker, were brutally dubbed. Six
more workers were arrested at a pro-
test meeting. Sixty dollars in litera-
ture was seized in a raid on our hear
quarters at which furniture, etc. was
destroyed by this fascist-police raid
ing squad.

ATLANTA "RELIEF"
Jobless Workers Told to Go to He'll

ment of these leeches, and all Of them
have private offices and telephones.
Some of the experts" got paid around
ten thousand year, think.
Third Degree
Whenever a worker out of a job
went to one of the relief" agencies
to get some help, he was treated like
dog. They asked him or her all
sorts of questions all about their pri-
vate lives and pry into their family
life. After this third degree they
usually refused with the lie that it
was the workers own fault that he
was out of job or that he had some
kin-folks to take care of him.
If you were lucky enough to get
few dollars from these fake agencies
they insulted and degraded you by
telling you not to come begging for
any more help and by making you
buy only certain things from certain
stores.
The final closing down Of the relief
agencies seems to be becoming the
straw that broke the camel's back

L. Callow, organizer of the Unem-
ployed Council, spoke and demanded
that the city supply free light and
gas for the unemployed and holding
in his hand the unpaid bills demand
ed that they be cancelled. For mo-
ment it looked as though nobody
wanted to take the bills SO Callow
threw them on the table before the
president of the council. The room
remained silent for a few moments.
The silence was broken by the
president. He said something must
be done. Some councilmen got up and
began to yell about Communist prop
uganda and Russian agents. Charges
and counter charges between the
councilmen and Callow followed. The
mayor then got up and took the
bills and said he would see to it that
they were taken care of.
He was just about to make DEM
agogic speech when the organizer
announced: Comrades, the bills will
be paid by the mayor. Let us go OUT
side and continue with our meeting.

SLANDERER OF

Dayton, Ohio.
Comrade Editor:

Dayton, Ohio.
Comrade Editor:
On June 7 there appeared the fol-
lowing ad in the Dayton Daily News
Mrs. Griffith, just returned from
Poland, will talk on "Why Commu-
nism and Why God" The ad was
SO written as to imply that she had
been in the USSR.
She is the rat poison carrier Of the
WCTU to mislead the workers thru
the church. Her first blast was
against the bonus marchers as Com
munists. Then she said that mis-
sionaries had their Threats cut in Po-
land but she wasn't sure that the
reds" did it! Then she said the
protestant church was growing by
leaps and bounds under Russian per-
secution.
She said that if we could go to
Russia we would see babies swinging
in straw sacks and workers and peas
ants living in mud huts.
I challenged her during her speech
to show Polish visa and tell where
she had been in Russia. She admitted
that she hadn't been there and said
that she got letters from there. The
WCTU is carrying on campaign OF
SANDER against the USSR in order to
make religious workers believe that
Jesus needs the support Of armies to
get back into Russia and make them
hysterical enough to let another wal
be started. Dayton Worker.

AS consequence of the gen.
eral strike against the bosses ter
ror and deportation Of the most
militant workers to the Spanish
penal colony, Guinea, in Africa,
and against hunger and wage-cuts,
the entire military garrison of Ca
dir and nearby towns is confined
to barracks ready for action at a
moments notice against the work
ing class.
The strike call by the revoIu-
tionary trade unions succeeded in
paralyzing completely the shops
and factories of the entire prov
ince, as well as the navy yards,
auto buses and street cars.
Aboard the batleship of the
Spanish war navy in which ] am
confined, the entire crew are fully
alive to the oppression and class
distinction We are subjected; the
sailors being conscripted from
amongst the workers and poorer
peasants, while the officers and
higher ups spring up among the
exploiters and parasite class.
Among the sailors of other
Spanish warships whom 1 am in
touch with I observed the same
class conscious spirit of solidarity,
and there is widespread opinion
among us that as soon as the
workers and farmers rise in re-
volt against the present system of
oppression, we will fight side by
side with the workers.
Long live the workers solidarity!
Long live Communism.

Slowly but inevitably the conscious

significance of the Bonus Marc, on

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind.-The two

days in fight over repeal of the

themselves as the champions of the

to bring back prosperity. Keynoter

But an of this demagogy doesn't
make a roof over our heads. The
workers of Indiana have found a
Party who not only have program
with words but in day to day fights,
battle for the needs of the workers.
Here in Indianapolis we sre rallying
masses of workers to tn Communist

capitalist press has blazed forth
against the veterans in their march

Editor, Daily Worker:
When they stopped giving relief to
the starving in Atlanta on June Is,
the charities of Atlanta ended a rec

told the workers to go to hell, they
used to cover up their crookedness
and graft with all sorts of lies and
hypocrisy.
Now full-time workers, of which
there are practically none now, work
sixty hours a week and get on the
average of ten dollars week. Five

forced to contribute out Of their

that the "philanthropists' raised the
money for their philanthropies.

Fields, who was born Jacob Fin
kelstein in Chicago twenty five years
ago, regained the title a year and
eight months after he lost it to Jack
Thompson in May, 1880. Fields first
won the title from Joe Dundee on a
foul at Detroit in July, 1929, and
held it for nine and one-half
months before losing it to Thomp-
son, whom he had twice beaten be-
fore becoming champion.
Another Match Sought
Brouillard. who won the title from
Jack Thompson. held it only three
months and four days, losing in his
first attempt to defend it. In de-
feat, the 21-year-old slugger proved
his courage by fighting his best after
Fields had hurt him with several
right hooks to the head in the sixth
round.
Nate Lewis, Chicago stadium
matchmaker, hopes to stage an
other welterweight title bout within
ninety days, with either Billy Pc
trolle, Jimmy McLarin or Brouillard
as challenger.
Fields Trained Hard
Fields, who is fond of night life,
appeared in the best condition of
many months He trained religious
ly for three months preceding the
battle.
Until the sixth round the action
was not sustained, but the last five
frames were packed with furious
rallies, toe to toe battling and spec
tacular exchanges. Brouillard was
in distress in the sixth round, but
came back to win the eighth and
hold Fields even in the ninth. Lou
lost the seventh and tenth.
