1000 Rochester JobIesS Mass
at Courthouse Against Hunger

ROCHESTER, N. Y-Around 4000
unemployed and employed workers
took part Wednesday in the most
militant demonstration ever held in
this cit vat the court house in pro
test against the cut in wages for re
lief work" from 40 to Is cents an
hour.
Massing in various parts Of the
city under the leadership OF the IN
employed Council, the workers
marched down Main Street to the
Court House, elected a committee OF
10 and demanded the right to see
the Board of Supervisors. We can't
live on IS cents an hour" shouted the
unemployed workers in their march
through the main business district.
At one section a, cop named
Smucker who tried 10 stop the
marchers was brushed aside. Then
hurried call was sent in for a huge
mobilization of police. They arrived
in police cars, heavily armed and
equipped with tear gas bombs. The
militancy of the workers stopped
them from breaking up the demon
stration, however.
The Committee of 10 put the de-
mands othe Board of Supervisors.
The board passed the buck to the
County Work Relief Committee, as
they were afraid to tell the workers
the truth about cutting down on re-
lief.
The Rochester Evening Journal,
describing this militant demonstra-
ton, said;

Guard and immigration and Customs
Service has been called into play.
Public prayers have been arranged
in many churches and in all New
York public schools. Everything pos
sible is being done to occupy the mind
Of the working class with the mo-
mentous question of Lindbergh's baby,
so as to drive from it all thought of
the miserable condition Of its own
existence and the necessity for strug-
gle against it.
Behind every line that has been
written on the Lindbergh case is the
conscious attempt to restore" the
waning faith of the masses in the
capitalist government as a protection
of the weak and helpless, as guard
ian of everything that it "holy and
sacred in the family" The immense
mobilization of the press and the
state and federal police is designed
to give the impression that the capt.
talist government of the United States
is sincerely concerned with the safety
and happiness of ''its children"
The entire working class must be
on its guard against entertaining any
such thought. 1t is the U. S, capt.
talist government and capitalist sys-
tenn, by its stoney refusal to grant
Unemployment Insurance to the 49,
100000 unemployed of this country

Of the Lindbergh baby, which the

thank for, but the crime of the Hoov-
err Hunger government toward the
children of the 100000 unemployed
and their parents Is what must call
forth the wrath Of the working class
all over the country.

guardians of the children of Ameri-
ca?
What else but the brutal class
character of the attitude of the
American government to the millions
4 of working class children can be seer
in its sudden concern with the safety
of the poor, innocent children
when it consciously buries away
scores Of abandoned babies, aban-
doned by desperate and jobless par
ents; news of the wholesale slaughter
Of the children of Chinese workers
by the Japanese imperialism which
it encourages in this slaughter. Wit
ness the item pushed well back where
few workers could see it in the Daily
News of March 4th:
"The bodies of more than 100
babies were removed from one de-
vastated residential area of Cha
pei yesterday morning."
Another very significant feature OF
thte entire case, and of the most ire
mendous Importance to the entire
working class is the attempt of the
capitalist class to use the Lindbergh
kidnapping as an excuse for con-
centrating into the hands of the
Federal government even more arbi-
trary repressive power than it now
possesses. This is not matter OF
a conflict between state rights and
Federal rights. The anti-gangster
and kidnapping laws are not aimed
at the capitalist underworld but at
the militant working class. The
meaning behind the agitation for
making kidnapping federal offense
Is to set precedent for transferring
into the highly centralized capitalist
governmental apparatus the germ of
fascist power that will be used not
against kidnappers but against the
militant working class.
Already numerous bills have been
introduced into Congress giving the
Federal government power over kid
nappers. These bills mean much
more than they appear to say. The
significance of this hurried legisla-
ton, and its fascist character is con-
tanned in the editorial Of the New
York Daily Mirror for March Bird:
