The union officials are also permit

In order to confuse the issue the

5000 members of the union were
working before the lockout-to take

Amter Calls for Wide Committee Fight Threatened Reduct
Wage of 10000 State Emp Sashes JObes Relief
RESIST LONGER
WORKING HOURS
Act Now for Jobless
Relief, Amter Says


The organization of workers COM
mittees throughout New York State
to resist attempts of the Hewitt
Legislative Economy Committee to
serve it's Wall Street masters by
"economizing" in state expenditures
at the expense of civil employees and
jobless workers, was urged today by
Israel Amter, Communist candidate
for Governor of New York.
Amter declared that 10000 state
employees are threatened with pay
cuts, with longer hours and with
reduction in their sick leave allow
ance by the economy committee
which is reSuming its hearings at
Albany The increase in working
time, he explained, may be from 36
to A hours week.
Immediate action for the relief Of
the unemployed in all parts Of the
state in preparation for the bitter
winter awaiting the joblesS was de-
manded by the Red candidate AM
ter said that New York City in the
last two and one-haf years has spent
in emergency relief only $18o,000oO0
for 100000 people, or only about 800
per unemployed worker. This aver
ages about 50 monthly, he said.
1.-The Communist Party calls upon
the state and the city workers to re-
sist every attempt that is made to
worsen their conditions-to reduce
their pay and lengthen their hours
This demands the organization of
committees in every office, in every
department. made up of rank and
file workers to resist today and to
prepare for fighting against any such
measures that positively will be in
troduced either before or after the
elections. The Communist Party will
give all support to these efforts

we're adopted at all the meetings
that we organized. The expulsion Of
the veterans from Washington with
gas and tanks, and the killing Of one
end Wounding CT many others arous-
ed tremendous inclination through
out the international veterans move
ment.
Question: The American Socialist
Party has come out against the i'm
mediate payment of the bonus.
What is the attitude of the Socialist
Parties in other countries toward the
veterans?
Answer: The attitude of the Amer
lean socialists is no different from
that of their colleagues in other
countries. In Germany the social
list" Mueller cabinet, which held
power from 1928 to 1890, prepared
the reduction of all the social SER
vices, including those for the veter-
ans. The German Social-Democracy
had for years boosted abroad about
its social welfare program but when
they came into power, they took the
lead in cutting down the social SER
vices
Sponsors CONSUMPTION Bill
In France 1t was the socialist Paul
Boncour, now Minister of War, who
sponsored the universal CONSUMPTION
bill which provided for the mobili-
cation of the entire population for
war purposes.
In Austria and Czecho-S loyakia,
when the bourgeoisie proposed the
reduction OF the social services for
veterans, the so-called socialists
agreed In England, under the Mac
Donald Labor government, nothing
was done to improve the situation of
the veterans. The activities Of the
socialists of all countries constitutes
an international betrayal Of the vet
Grams and the entire workingclass.
Question: What is the attitude OF
the German Communist Party TO-
ward the veterans?
Answer: The only party which
consistently fights for the demands
of the veterans is the Communist
Party In the Reichstag and in all
the state and municipal parliaments
the party has chosen veterans as re-
representatives.. The Party press gives
full publicity to the struggles Of the
veterans, and revolutionary veterans
work in strike and unity committees
together with other revolutionary
workers under the leadership Of the
Communist Party.
Tasks of Unions. Unemployed
Question: What is the attitude OF
the German revolutionary unions ard
the unemployed movement toward
the veterans and what should be
their attitude in this country?
Answer: The veterans work toge-
Their with the revolutionary unions
and the unemployed movement in all
united front struggles. They hold
Joint mass meetings and demonstra-

tions and the veterans try to fur
ther the activity of the workers
among ever wider circles. Through
the revolutionary unions they fight
against the social reaction in the
factories. In Germany the wounded
vets are especially victimized; the
capitalists set them off against the
other workers, cut their wages and
use these wage cuts to drag down
the wages of the other workers The
revolutionary workers join with the
veterans in the struggle against
these determinations
Here in the United States the uni
ted front of the revolutionary unions
of the Trade Union Unity League,
the Unemployed Councils and the
veterans must be built. 1t will give
new strength to the struggles of the
veterans by linking them up with
the general struggles of the American
working class. On the other hand,
the success of the bonus fight de-
ponds on the active support of the
revolutionary unions and the unem-
ployed.
1t is the revolutionary unions and
the Unemployed Councils which, to-
gether with the Workers Ex-Service-
mems League. must create the ba-
sis for successful, bonus march.
Joint preparations are necessary to
map out the line of march, provide
quarters food, etc, and to rally the
population along the march in sup
port of the bonus struggle. Joint
preliminary mass meetings must be
arranged and the role of the cap
italist press and the capitalist can
didates exposed. In every city of the
country united font committees to
organize common actions of employ
ed and unemployed workers and vet
Grams must be set up. Only in this
way can the fight for the bonus and
for federal unemployment insurance
be won.

DRY RAID CRITICS.
INDICTMENT ASKED
Methodist Temperance Board
Demands Action in Alex

Immediate indictment of Alexandria,
Bay, N. Y, citizens who, they said, "as-
saulted Government agents, destroyed
Government property and interfered
with the administration of Government
authority" there July IL during dry
raids, was demanded yesterday by Sec
retarieS Clarence True Wilson and DeetS
Pickett of the Methodist Board of Tenn
perance, Prohibition and Public Morals.
The secretaries statement, contained
in the boards Clipsheet, was made pub
lie after Amos w. w. Woodcock, Fed
eral prohibition director, had upheld
the action Of the raiding agents except
in their unnecessary damage to prop
erty." which they will be required to
repair at their own expense.
The assaulted Federal agents were
described by the Methodist board Off
cials as "custodians of the dignity and
prestige of the Federal Government"
See Publicity Campaign.
"a blow against them was blow
against the interest and safety OF every
patriotic citizen in the country and
should be so regarded by Federal au-
thorities,' the secretaries said.
They added that a publicity cam
paign" got under way after the raids
s'for the purpose of using the incident
against the prohibition policy and to
the injury of the agents"

litical motive Is involved In much OF

Liquor was found in all places search
ed Woodcock said, adding that ex-
cept for the property damage, he could
not find the agents did more than was
necessary to do their duty"
He would have preferred, he said,
that the search warrants were not
served while the spanish-American war
veterans were holding a convention In
the town.
He said investigators found no sub
sanitation for charges that the agents
used threatening or abusive language,
and when attacked by mob were res
cued by men in military and naval
service uniforms who were attending
the veterans convention.
1T has been the sole purpose Of this
bureau" Woodcock said, ito enforce
the national prohibition law earnestly
and honestly and lawfully. We cannot
therefore, permit open violations of this
law to continue, no matter how dis
tasteful their interruption may be to
the persons concerned.
These persons in Alexandria Bay
were violating the law for the simple
purpose of making money. We have
mandate to suppress such violations.
This we will continue to do.
IT have received some letters from
Alexandria Bay praising the work our
men did there. But the praise is as

JAPAN BOMBING
HELD UNETH|CAL
Violation of International
Law, Experts Claim.
This picture shows
BU United PreSS


WASHINGTON, Jan. 29.-Gov-
eminent authorities on interna-
tional law said today in discussing
reports that Japanese bombs had
fallen around an American Meth
odist home in the international
settlement of Shanghai, that the
bombing of unfortif1ed communities
even in wartime was a violation
of international law.
They quoted Article 25 of the
Hague convention of 1909 on the
laws and customs of war on land
as follows:
1.-THE attack or bombardment, by
whatever means of towns, villages,
dwellings or buildings which are
undefended is prohibited"
When Japanese bombed Chin
chow, Manchuria, last October,
Secretary of State Stimson told
Toxic he considered it's action as of
very serious Importance"
'The secretary of state,'' Slim
son said, lis at a loss to see what
right Japanese military planes had
to fly over the town, thereby pro-
voking attack, and to drop bombs.
Casualties among civilians have
been asserted by the Chinese to
have taken place. Bombing of an
unfortifled and unwarned town is
one of the most extreme of mill
tary actions. deprecated even in
time of war"
Officials recalled that during the
World war, some unfortified towns
we're bombed, but that such action
always led to sharp protests"
