ter declared here last night, as more
than 300 workers cheered the Com

Hoovers plan, he charged, is mere

ton of unemployed relief by this ma
tional speed-up, wage cutting
scheme. No opposition is Forthcoming
from Norman Thomas, socialist lead
er, or William Green, head of the

warned, as the workers in the hall
thunderously applauded him.

said, fostered himself at the head Of

Governor Pinchot announced
that he would send trucks tc
the camp, accompanied, Of
course, by state troopers, to
carry the vets and their fam
lilies out of the city.
In issuing the order, McCloskey
revealed the fact that the Waters

of the bonus marchers, would help
carry out the custer.

Closkey.

disclosed that Waters had turned

Red Victory in
GermanyHailed
By the 'Pravda'
by Inprecorr Cable


MOSCOW, Aug. To-day
Pravda, editorially commenting on
the German elections, states: cal
ready on the basis of the tentative
reports, and following the basic po-
litical conclusions to be drawn, the
elections of July 81 testify that the
revolutionary upsurgs in Germany i;
growing at a fast tempo"
Despite the wave of terror, th:
Communist Party gained about 700,-
900 votes more than in the last
Reichstag elections and over 100000
more than in the second Presiden-
tial elections. This, Pravda contin-
ues, is the reflection Of the general
upsurge of the masses.
Workers Learned Lessons.
After reviewing the development of
the crisis and unemployment and
analysing the attempts of the bour-
geoisie to solve the problems of the
crisis by preparing for war, crush
ing the masses and getting a "peo-
pies mandate" for aggressive i'm
perialist Vaccinations, Pravda de
clares:
''The results of the elections
show that the masses of toilers
learned something in the grim
school of the class struggle about
the treacheries of the social-demo-
cratic leadership and the fascist
terroristic policy of emergency de-
crees by Bruening and Won Papen.

NC. Fights to Enforce
Ruling on Job Agencies

NEW YORK.-As result of the
fight of the jobless under the leader
ship of the Unemployed Councils, the
license commission was instructed
gyp job agencies not to collect any
fees in advance.
Despite this instruction, the sharks
are continuing to charge workers for
their "jobs" in advance and life
moves on in the same old way.
The Unemployed Council job
Agency Grievance Committee is
mobilizing workers to fight for en-
forcement of this ruling and is rally
ing the workers to demand adequate
free employment agencies run by the
city. The Committee calls upon
workers to report any grievances to
it at E. 10Th ST., where workers

BROOKLYN FUR
WORKERS WIN
WAGE INCREASE
5 Arrested in Dogskin
Strike as Gangsters
Attack Workers

NEW YORK-The strike conduct
ed by the Fur Department of the
Needle Trades Workers Industrial
Union against the Moos Fur Dyeing
Corp, 2-10 Evergreen Ave-, Brook
lyn, a shop employing close to 100
workers, was settled yesterday with a
victory for the workers. The shop
was settled under the following con-
ditions; A general increase in wages
of So per week, and a reduction of
five hours, 8 per cent unemployed
fund, equal division of work, and
recognition of the union.
The workers returned to the shop
victorious an decided to spread or
ganization among the rest of the fur
dyeing shops which are mainly I'M
organized.
Attack Striker-Five Arrested.
The end of the first week of the
dogskin strike found the ranks Of
the strikers solidly united. The COM
pany union and the bosses realize
that solidarity of the workers will
sooner or later force the bosses to
come to terms. They have therefore
decided on last desperate effort to
interfere with the strike.
On Wednesday morning as the
strikers were picketing their shops,
a machine of gorillas stopped in
front of a striking shop. A bunch of
gorillas jumped out of the machine
and made bloody attack on Hyman
Chernoff. The workers immediately
rushed to his aid. AS soon as the
strikers learned that the gangsters
were in the market they came out
in mass to the fur center. The 60
rillas fled in panic. Five of the gang
sters were later arrested.
New shops are being taken down
daily. Among them is one of the big
gest shops in the fur industry, Fen
ster Brothers, 33 Seventh Ave. The
shop is completely stopped. Condi-
tions in this shop, which was one of
the outstanding shops controlled by
the Council, were miserable. Workers
were getting $40 to s25 below the
minimum wage scale.

CHINESE RED
ARMY IN new
BIG VICTORY
Capture Two of Chi
ang Kai-shek's
Divisions
MEN JOIN RED ARMY
Marking in Desperate
Maneuvers

In a smashing c0unter-offen-
sive against the new Fifth
&c m m unist Suppression
campaign organized jointly by
the imperialist powers and
their Marking lackeys, a Chin
csc Red Army yesterday de-
feated two divisions of Nank-
ing troops west of Hankow, in
Hupeh province. The two 'di-
visions, the 30th and 31st, numbering
around 10000 men, surrendered to
the Red Army. The men then shot
most of the Marking officers and
joined forces with the Red Army.
The combined army is reported NOV
ing westward for an attack against
the Marking forces.
The Marking troops operating in
Hupeh Province against the Red
Armies include several of "the crack
brigades" of Chang Kai-shek, who
is in personal command of the new
offensive against the ernancipated
workers and peasants in the Chinese
Soviet districts.
Spreads CONSERVATION.
The news of the Communist VIC
tory has spread conservation among
the Marking butchers who fear fur
Their wholesale assertions of their
troops to the workers and peasants
Red Armies which are fighting for
the emancipation of all of China
from the oppression of the imperial
ists,. and the Chinese militarists,
bankers and feudal landowners. The
struggle has now reacher the pro-
portions of a major civil war, with
the Red Armies meeting the enemy
in pitched battles.
This victory is the latest of long
unbroken series of Red Army VIC
tories and has caused profound stir
among the Marking forces. The 10y
atty of these forces is already shaken
as result of the failure of the Nam
king government to pay the wages of
the troops for several months. The
growing anger of the Chinese masses
against the repeated sell-outs by the
Marking gang to the imperialists is
also finding reflection among the
troops. This anger has recently flam-
ed up anew as result of the new
Japanese invasions in Jehol Province
and North China and the failure of
the Marking regime to offer any re-
sistance to the Japanese invaders.
Bloody Rewards.
In It's desperation, the Marking
government is offering huge cash
rewards to it's troops for the cap
ture of Red Army generals, units and
artillery. So far none of the Marking
troops have been able to collect any
of the offered rewards. Chang Kali
Shek is also engaging in the futile
attempt to bride the Red Army
troops into DESERVING to the camp
of their class enemy This device has
also met with complete failure. A
Shanghai dispatch to the New York
Times sadly reports that 80 far,
however, he (Chiang Kai-Shek) has
had no results from this campaign"
Another desperate demagogic ma
neuver of the Marking government
is sham promise to the ernbattled
workers and peasants that they will
be allowed to vote for provincial
assemblies and local councils, if
they will stop their revolutionary
fight against the government. This,
also, has met with no success.

Government contributed S45O,OOO,
the State of Pennsylvania 100000,
the State of Maryland $4,000, and
