Demonstrate in Glasgow.

GLASGOW, Scotland, Dec. 22.-
Fifteen thousand demonstrated here
today demanding winter relief and
the release of the leaders of the
unemployed.
The city council refused te-eeeeive
a delegation and seven members Of
the city council were put out of its
meeting by force when they pro-
tested against the refusal of the
majority of the body to meet and
hear the demands of the delegation
from the unemployed.
The police dubbed the demonstra-
tors, and a fierce fight resulted in
which there were numerous arrests.
Ten police were sent TO the hospital,
five seriously injured.

lice brutality attacked protest
meeting Friday night,
PORTLAND, Ore, Dec. %.
A state hunger march to
reach Salem on Jan. Sth, and
present relief demands the
next day is now being or
gained. A very successful
state united front conference
on Dec. IL called for it. A
total of 80 delegates were present at
the conference representing 10 Or
CARNATIONS. 1t was called by the
Unemployed Council of Portland. Out
of town as well as local delegates
made reports of wage cuts, relief
determinations etc. Farmers dele
gates likewise reported 1t was the
unanimous opinion that there should
be mass action on the part of work
ers and farmers alike for immediate
relief
The farmers are losing what little
they possess. Wholesale evictions
and foreclosures are the order of the
day.
Workers now employed are going
through ever increasing wage cuts
and speed-ups.
Forced Labor
Unemployed workers in small COM
munities are getting meager relief
through forced labor system
Although Portland still has relief
based on emergency" work for reg
istered Citizens" the single work
ers and particularly the migratory
workers who developed the Northwest
are forced to shift for themselves.
Thousands of them are lining the
banks of the Willamett River living
in novels, in "HooVervilles.'
WoodpiIe Swindle
The Unemployed Citizens League
has rs locals or commiSsaries here
The members are being held in check
by a reactionary leadership. Thou
sands of cords of wood cut during the
summer and fall by Citizens League
members are still piled up in the
country. Transportation promised by
the leaders fell flat.
The workers who cut this wood
find their homes without fuel. The
leadership of the Unemployed Citi-
zens League condemned the state
hunger march through the capitalist
press.
State Conference
The state hunger marchers will as
,semble at Salem on Jan. 8 where the
final all state conference will take
place. Delegates will be elected to
present demands the following day
to the state legislature when it con-
venes. If a sufficient number of
workers can be modified the Port
land marchers will join with march
ers from the town north and north
east of Portland to hike the distance
from Portland to Salem $50 miles,
with two stop overs along the route.
Delegates should have at least two

BOSTON. May 25.-Two German
airmen, attempting a ship-to-shore
flight from the liner Europa to Bos-

What had happened to their
Junkers monoplane, which was

disclosed in the curt call for aid.
Local aviators believed the plane
had been forced down.

A checkup disclosed that about
300 miles separated the plane from

Hope for the rescue of the flieTs
lay in the possibility they might be
picked up by the Europa if the
plane was in the steamship lanes
when the trouble was encountered.

CHICAGO, May 25.-Bootleggers

up in the near north side over the

SEEKS SENATE
VOTE ON BEER
Bingham Makes Hopeless
Fight for Brew Tax.
ByUnitcd Press

BIZ United Press
WASHINGTON. May 25.-Beer-
for-revenue senators led another as
sault today against the S1,00O,0O0,-
600 tax bill in a hopeless effort to
substitute beer taxes for sales levies
and postal increases.
Senator Hiram Bingham (Rep.,
Ccnn) urges beer upon the senate
as the source of s375. 100000 pain
less revenue"
He wants vote today on his
amendment to legalize 2.75 per cent
beer.
Two days ago the house on a roll
call Of 228 TO 159 refused to con-
slider a like plan. The majority
against beer is expected to be even
larger in the senate.
The beer proposal reaches the
senate floor with coalition leaders
control somewhat shaken by a vote
in the closing moments of Tuesday
nights session when the senate re-
duced the sales tax on automobile
trucks from 3 to 2 per cent. 1t was
Inc first time the senate had reject
ed a rate recommended by its
finance committee.
The vote followed rejection of the
Norris amendment to make the ex-
port debenture system of farm re-
lief a rider to the tax bill.
The senate finance committee, re-
spending to urgent pleas by the tire
industry, today again changed its
stand or tax on tire castings and
tubes. The committee decided on
sales tax of 81 cents a pound on
the former and cents a pound on
the latter.
In an effort to make up an esti-
mated loss of S20,0oo,O00 on the
change. the committee then voted to
return To the bill the entire house
schedule for a sales tax on cos
metics and toilet preparations.

RELIEF BILL IS
GIVEN Senate
BY DEMOCRATS
Wagner Measure Provides
for Direct Loans to
States.
TRADE REVIVAL IS AIM
Funds Needed to Finance
Local SeIf-Liquidating
Projects, Is Claim.
ByUaitcdPress

By United Press
WASHINGTON, May 25.-The re-
relief program which the Democrats
hope to push through congress was
presented today in a $4,000 900 900
bill introduced by Senator Robert j.
Wagner Dem, n. y.
The Wagner bill, supported by the
minority steering and policy COM
mittee, provides for $500, 900 900
expansion Of the borrowing power of
the Reconstruction Finance Corpor-
alton for the financing OF self
liqmdating construction, a $500.000.-
600 bond issue for other public works
and $500, 900 900 for direct loans to
states for unemployment relief
The bill was referred to the SEN
ate banking and currency commit
tee. Senator Huey Long Dem,
La asked Wagner whether Presi-
dent Hoover favored the bill.
Il have no idea what the attitude
Of the President is" Wagner replied.
Garner Bill Ready
Speaker John Garner announced
that details of his s2100,00000 re-
lief program would be completed
and made public Wednesday.
Hearings are expected to begin
early next week.
Wagner said the two detectives of
the program we're Ito assist the
states in preventing hunger" and
to help in bringing about a re-
sumption Of employment and revival
Of trade"
There no longer can be any
doubt he said. that before con-
gress adjourns. it will take action
to provide program of relief and
construction.
More than once we have been
reminded that the resources of the
nation are, intact: that the nfachin-
cry Of the country is in excellent
condition: that the productive ca
pacity Of our people is greater than
it ever has been; that our credit
facilities are more than ample to
finance a prosperous America.
Nation Is Languishing
Nevertheless America is lam
gushing. There is no demand for
commodities. there is no demand
for labor. and there is no demand
for credit. Prices continue their
decline, profits shrink and disap-
pear. production is further curtailed
and more unfortunates are added
TO the number of unemployed.
There is no point in blinking
the fact that this tragic evolution
has continued. despite the Recon-
struction Finance Corporation. the
Glass-Steagall act and the open
market operations OF the federal re-
serve system"
Wagner urged that the two OBJ
iectives be attained in the most
direct way possible, namely. by max
ing relief available wherever it is
required with the minimum of
bureaucratic intervention" and by
initiating necessary federal projects
and financing local self-liquidating
projects.
