Hundreds in Waterbury paid $60 or better for shares of the United Founders. but the government is not arguing the price of the in- vestment, or extending sympathy over it's present low value.

 In Bridgeport, stockholders committee has been formed and appeals have been made to state senators and representatives in Washington to obtain information in the matter and to aid them in obtaining relief.

SUNDAY FOR The UNITED

The capitalist press has been
splashing ink over page after page
of its organs about the Lindbergh
baby. In one week it has talked
more about the Lndbergh baby
than it has talked during the en-
tire crisis about the babies of the
toiling masses. 1t has not talked
about the starving babies of the
Kentucky miners. It has not
talked about the babies of the des-
titute farmers or the unemployed
millions. It has refused to say
anything about the children Of the
working class for the same reason
that it now talks about the Lind
bergh baby-to keep the workers
from thinking about the misery in
which they are sunk, to keep the
workers from thinking about the
imperialist war which is upon US.
In Manchuria and in Shanghai
tens of thousands of workers and
peasants, their wives and their
babies have been slaughtered as
part of the imperialist attempt to
loot China thru crushing the mass
resistance Of the Chinese masses.

Economic Crisis In
Capitalist Germany
Becomes More Acute

Berlin, Feb. 22.-The German
Institute for the Investigation Of
Economic Trends reports that
since the middle of 1929, Ger
many's industrial production has
fallen by 46SO. The average level
OF industrial production in De-
cember, 1881, was the same as the
average level in 1890. The nation
al income was rs milliard Marks
In 1929, So milliard marks in 1880.
and from so to so milliard Marks
in 1881. The Institute forecasts
a further heavy drop in the ma
tional income for 1882. It reports
also that bankruptcies increased
tremendously in 1881 and totalled
1890, a high level record. The
Institute forecast a further inten-
sification of the general economic
crisis.
