SCOTTSBORO DAY
World Demonstrations
October 8

PITTSBURGH, Sept. 14.-The Ma
tional Miners Union, busy fighting
against the deportations of two of its
leaders, F. Borich, national secretary
and v. Kemenovich, secretary of the
Western Pennsylvania District, and
many other militant miners, and also
fighting to organize the thousands
of Negro miners energetically en-
dorses the Scottsboro and Anti-De-
portation Day on Oct. 8, initiated by
the International Labor Defense.
In statement issued yesterday
the National Committee of the N. M.
U. points out:
"The coal operators and their local
state and national governments are
trying to make use of the Deporta-
ton weapon to further cut the wages
of the miners and starve them into
accepting semi-slave conditions. AT
the same time, and as part of this
fight, the operators are trying to
prevent the growing unity of the
Negro and white miners through ter
ror.
1.-THE National Miners Union calls
upon all its members, upon all the
miners and their families and upon
the entire working class to demon
strate on Oct. for the freedom of
the nine Scottsboro boys.

Glassford, Whose Cops
Killed Bonus Marcher,
b Praised by Thomas

NEW YORK. - Norman Thomas,
Socialist Party candidate for presi-
dent, repeated the socialist stand
against the payment of the veterans
bonus, when he made speech Tues
day in Hampstead, l.. I.
But the Rev. Thomas has learned
something in his first contacts with
the workers recently. He now says,
it might well be made part of COM
prehensive program for unemploy-
ment relief if there is payment of
the bonus to unemployed veterans
this year."
Then he praised Superintendent of
Police Glassford of Washington, for
his present criticism of Hoover's
statement that the bonus marchers
were criminals and Communists.
Thomas did not mention that
Glassford's police were first to kill a
veteran.

CALLS FOR
MASS FIGHT
To Defeat Wage-Cuts,
Defend Workers
Standards
EXPOSES SOCIALISTS
Says Communism Is
Only Way Out for
the Workers
Gable BY InprecOrr)

BERLIN, Sept. 14.-An appeal en-
titled Down With Won Papen" was
issued by the Communist Party of
Germany, The appeal declared that
Won Papen is ignoring the over
whelming vote of the Reichstag and
is remaining in office supported by
the bayonets of the Reichswehr and
the services of all capitalist parties,
from the fascist to the socialist party.
Only the united revolutionary
struggle of the masses can overthrow
the government of fascist dictator
ship, defeat the wage-cuts and de-
fend the workers living standards,
the appeal declared.
For Wo-k, Bread and Freedom
Won Papen's economic program
means the enrichment of a small
clique at the expense of the workers
on whose shoulders new burdens are
placed. The only way out is commu-
nisn and the workers must rally
around the Communists in the strug-
gle for work, bread and freedom.
The appeal exposes the empty
demagogy of the fascists comparing
it with the fascists' actions, murder
ing workers, supporting Papen, etc.
1t also exposes the cowardice, the
treachery of the socialists, whose toll
Grafton of Bruening prepared the way
for Papen. In retreating when the
Junker Chancellor attacked Prussia,
in sabotaging the communist strike
proposal, against this attack, etc.
Centre Landed In Hitler's Arms.
The Centre Party is attacked in the
appeal which shows how this party
which promised stern struggle
against fascism ended up in Hitlers
arms and worked for a coalition CIV
ing the fascists control over the pre-
sidiums of the Reichstag and the
Prussian Diet.
The appeal calls upon fascist,
Catholic, socialist workers to join
with the Communists in a united
struggle against Papen and declares;
Whoever wants to defeat Papen and
Schleicher must fight against Hitler,
Bruening and Severing" 1t ends by
repeating the former offer of the
Communist Party to cooperate with
all workers organizations prepared
to struggle against fascism, wage
cuts, exceptional courts, militarism,
imperialist war, the Versailles and
Lausanne treaties and for socialism,

The U.TW. at first talked of a
general strike, but now calls for a
"stoppage" of weavers only. The U.
T.W. leaders have helped the mill
owners cut wages so per cent in the
last year, and right now are trying
to split the silk workers by making
this struggle of weavers only. They
are also holding constant conferences
with the Chamber of Commerce and
the employers, to sell out the strug-

"Weavers are getting from 2hc to

to IA hours, averaging about $40 a
week. In one shop, weavers have to
enter new warps without pay for it,
1t is nothing unusual for bosses to
steal yards. Weavers are fired for
any little flaws. Poor drinking water,
unsanitary conditions, poor lights
and insufficient equipment are COM
mon in the shops. In one shop, a
Ioomfixer is hired and gets a nickel
for adjusting picking stick and
while doing this, he sees another
Ioomfixer fixing filling motion and
this loomfixer gets a quarter. One
loomfixer is taking care of 80 looms
-12 hours for $50 week. Wrappers
are getting 4c average. Winders and
quill winders earn about $40 week."
In the dye houses the wage is is
to As cents an hour and unemployed
