New York Municipal Elections 1888

Ordinance restricting the cost Of milk,
bread, potatoes, meat, fruit and vege-
tables, to make these staples accessi-
BILE to every workers family. At the
same time, we demand that milk sold
in the City of New York should be
paid for by the Dairy Companies at
prices which will guarantee to work
ing dairy farmers costs of production
and living income.
We propose a City Ordinance for a
general Is per cent reduction Of rents;
for q drastic reduction Of light and
gas rates.
We fight against any increase in
subway, street car, bus or elevated
fares.
We propose a consistent municipal
policy to raise the standard Of living
Of New York workers. We propose
the granting of public funds in the
form of strike benefits to trade unions
In all cases where workers undertake
by strike action to raise the stand
ard OF living.
4. Civil Rights-Right to Strike and
Picket.
a. Complete freedom of speech, as
sembly, the right of petition and
demonstration, the full right of the
workers to the use of the streets. We
demand the release of all political
prisoners, strike pickets, etc.
b. We demand the withdrawal Of
all city and state police or private
guards from the vicinity of all places
where strikes are in progress. For
the absolute and unrestricted right of
the workers to organize into unions
OF their own choice-for the unquali-
fled right of the workers to strike
and picket.
c. For the complete abolition of
injunctions under all conditions
against trade unions OF workers en-
gagged in struggle.
d. For the right of teachers and
city employees to belong to any or
ganization and to express any social,
economic or political views they de-
sire without victimization.
e. The Communist Party calls upon

against all interference of the capt.
talist courts and police in labor dis
putes. We call for the organization
of Workers Self Defense Corps, to
resist gangster and Fascist attacks
upon the workers.
S. Equal Rights for Negroes.
The Communist Party fights I'M
compromisingly against all discrimi-
nation and inequality practiced
against the Negro people. We de-
nounce the reactionary criminal prac-
tees of the ruling class of New York,
supported by political parties, Demo-
cratic, Republican, Socialist, by which
population of 100000 Negroes is
confined in segregated districts, over
crowded and charged extra high rent
for homes in the Oldest and most I'M
sanitary buildings, and are system
atically excluded from restaurants,
hotels, theatres, and ether places of
| public resort by the connivance of
the police and open support of the
City, State and Federal Governments.
For full social, political and eco
nomic equality for all Negroes. For
the right of Negroes to any job on
absolutely equal terms. We propose
to enforce this both by drastic Grim
inal laws and by the mass action of
the working class, both White and
Negro, in defense of Negro rights.
We propose criminal law subject
ing to heavy imprisonment any per-
son acting to segregate Negroes in
residence districts, to exclude Negroes

Misery, Increasing Relief Cuts

The working people Of New York
face more serious problems today
than at any previous time.
More than a million and quarter
unemployed workers face dire misery
and the most drastic attacks on their
very right to live.
With 2O1,0 900 vacant apartments in
New York, the landlords filed 308,5l6
eviction applications in 1882.
Thousands of mothers are forced
to nurse their children on tea or hot
water. In the poor workers section
the children are supplied In the
schools with one-seventh OF the milk
necessary to prevent ricketts,, scuvy
and tuberculosis. The death rate OF
infants has increased by 100 per cent
since the crisis began.
Fully three-fourths of the total
working population of Negro Harlem
are unemployed. The death rate IS
AZ per cent higher in Harlem than
in the rest OF the city. The bulk OF
the Negro unemployed are discrlmln-
ated against, and receive no relief
whatsoever. Employment in numer-
Gus factories, shops, offices and in
public service is closed to them. The
criminal conspiracy of segregation
enables landlords to force twenty-five
or fifty per cent higher rents from
Negroes. tuberculosis among the
Harlem Negro population has in
creased fifty per cent since the crisis
began-the rate being twice as high
as in the white" neighborhoods OF
the rich. The most frightful disre-
gard for human life exists in the
Harlem butcher" hospital, Negro
prisoners are murdered in cold blood
on Welfare Island.

from restaurants, hotels, theatres,
ETC., or to segregate them in such
places, OF to refuse equal service.
The Communist Party proposes to
organize as part Of the election cam
paign, mass picketing demonstrations
against Jim Crow institutions to COM
pei the admission Of Negroes on equal
terms and without segregation in all
such places.
The Communist Party, the only
party which has fought for the de-
tense of the innocent Negro boys
framed up at Scottsboro, Ala, pro-
poses that the city government of
New York publicly endorse the de-
tense of the innocent Negro boys Of
Scottsboro and other Negroes framed
up In Tallapoosa County, at Tusca-
loosa, etc, and that the city govern

What Is Fusion?

The Republican and the new Fu-
sion parties serve the same masters as
Tammany Hall. They represent the
same interests: the bankers and
trusts, the interests Of the capitalist
system as a whole. The whole Flu

hour program featuring celeb
rites of the stage, screen and radio.
VOL, the Washington outlet OF the

N the ambitious plan of the Sea-
drome Ocean Dock Corporation to
establish five floating landing fields"
for airplanes as stepping stones across
the Atlantic Ocean, which. it is held
would reduce the crossing time to pos
sibly 20 hours
An application has been filed for
$30000000 loan from the Public Works
Administration for the project. with
the claim that the job can be completed
in two years and would put 10000 men
to work.
Edward R. Armstrong, president of the
corporation and inventor of the sea-
drome. and other hackers of the project
pointed out that radio would be relied
upon to a great extent in making the
undertaking feasible. Besides safe
guarding lives by maintaining COM
munication with planes and shore and
by steering the courses for the air
craft, the plan contemplates the use of
the seadromes as relay or repeater points
for international broadcasting.
The responsible heads of several large
industrial corporations are said to be
financially interested in the venture
The five floating docks would be placed
at intervals Of about $50 miles along
the gulf stream course between the
eastern coast Of the United States and
the western coast of Portugal or Spain.
They would be the equivalent of Ameri-
can-owned islands, anchored to the bot
tom OF the ocean by 1,500-ton REIN
forced concrete anchors, and would be
1.225 feet long. 300 feet wide in the
center. and weigh $4,000 tons. The
estimated cost Of each seadrome would
be $6,000,000. Each would have a hotel
with full accommodations, about l25
resident employees and floating popu-
lation of between 300 and 500 persons"

lous desert island for the rest OF your

more fun to make up q list Of ten
famous books that one has never
read and never intends to read.
This, 1t seems to us, Is a pretty
sound idea. The library shelves are
full OF great classics to which all bf
us give lip service, and with which
we like to have people think that we
are thoroughly familiar; wouldn't It
be boon to the cause OF frankness
II we should sit down and tabulate,
In all honesty, those classics which
we never quite got around to?
To be sure, such honesty might de-
stroy lot OF highbrow poses. But
it would be exceedingly refreshing.
