LET THIS BE THE LESSON!

There is one lesson the public ought to get out
of banking hodays-taking place in several sec.
tions-that without bank there can be no COM
munity activity, no real business, no employment,
nor anything else worth while.
The bank is an absolute necessity to the life of
every city of any size.
Without bank we would revert to the days CT
barter.
Without bank every factory and institution
would have to be its own banker
Every individual would have to hide his money
in tin cans and under beds.
Without bank it would be absolutely impos-
sble to keep industry going.
The lesson we should get out of this is to keep
these things in mind-all of us~-from the humblest
workingman to the capitalist and the banker him
self.
!. 1t ought to be plain now that when some demo
gogue gets up and rants about how the govern
ment is helping the banks and the bankers but IS
not helping the people, he is plain, unmtigated
and constituencies liar, unworthy of either conf
dence or respect.
This applies whether he wea~s the garb of the
politician, priest, or pulpit orator.
The banks must be maintained in sound cond;
ton not for the benefit of the bankers but for the
benefit of the people.
And when you hear someone denouncing banks
and bankers, just remember he is aiming at YOU
and your property and your job.
Let this be the lesson of banking HOLIDAYS in the
several portions of the nation.-Rock Hill Is. CT
Herald.

WASHINGTON, Mar. 2. .(UP).
Modern youth, as any senator
will tell you, simply doesn't have
any respect for lawmakers.
The senator's violent ideas on
the subject are based upon the
escapadc Of three Of the young

the other morning, while all the
senators we're asleep. The boys
engaged in a Slap-stick pie bat
tie, using senatorial pies, which
splashed on senatorial walls.
Senatorial tables were over

THOUGHTS OF
A FISHERMAN
By Ike Walton, Redivivus

81 have seen fools destroyed
before" said Woodrow Wilson
just before he died. Strong lang
uage; but has history not justified
lit? Mr.. Wilson was referring to
leaders who nullifcd'his efforts TO
secure an effective cooperation
between nations and a program al
home designed to prevent the
jackals trying to feed upon the
battlefield from turning upon the
living next. Now see the outcome.
Where are those leaders now.
What effective action did they
take to prevent the inevitable col
lapse of their overblown bubbles?
What are they doing now? And
how many of them were political
" destroyed" last November?
Many Of them have also been
financially "destroycd", and some
physically eliminated.
"The mills Of God grind slowly,
"But they grind exceeding small"
Now that so many Of Mr.. VIII
sons old associates and followers
are soon to try TO clean up the
wreckage and get a fresh Start for
the nation. it might be well Tor
them to recall one Of his funda-
mental principles--that OF Cove
nants openly arrived at"-at home
and abroad. Most Of our troubles
now come from deeds done IN
darkness-behind the closed doors
of directors meeting; in smoke
filed committee rooms; in exec
utive sessions; in conferences Of
"best minds;" in al sorts Of Sc
cret conclayes; so that action is
influenced without the people
even knowing what is going on.
Those still determined to carry
on those dark and devious devices
would do we'll to reject that the
people have learned how to keep
secrets too. They can keep secret
how they mean to vote; how they
might suddenly band together for
summary action when the leaders
never even knew a storm was
brewing. Retter revive some old
fashioned American beliefs in
| open and fair dealing. Better re-
member Abraham Lincoln's warn
people some of. the time, and
| some Of the people all Of the
and some of the people all Of the
time; but you cannot fool all the
people all the time"
1t will be a terrible day for
leaders who try to conceal their
doings when the people decide to
fool their leaders. Better stay out
in the. open-it's dangerous under
j. shady tree in a thunderstorm.

To Show n. 7. Vote Increase
Fusion Wins in Big
Anti TammanyVote;;
s. P. Loses Heavily
'29 C. P. Vote, 1922;

NEW YORK. - In a cam
paign in which the Fusion can
didate, LaGuardia, was swept
into office on a wave of pro-
found -Tammany sentiment. The
Communist Party was the only one
of the minority parties to register
gains in its vote.
Robert Minor, the Communist can
didate, received 2e,564 votes as against
the Communist mayoralty vote of
1922, received by Weinstone in 1929.
This increase of Communist votes
since 1929 contrasts with the showing
of the Socialist Party mayoralty can
didate, Charles Solomon, who re-
ceiyed only 5000 votes yesterday, as
compared with the Socialist mayor
atty vote of 175,O00 votes polled by
Norman Thomas in 1929
The vote of the other leading Com
munist candidates is as follows: Bur-
roughs for Comptroller, 30,749; Gold
for Aldermanic President. 30,384, and
Amter for Manhattan Borough Pres
ident, 6,2s9.
The Socialist Labor Party received
$50 votes.
Other results are printed in table
on an inside page.
LaGuardia, the victorious candi-
date, received total Of 864,562 votes,
as against $4,000 for OBrien, and
604, 900 for Mckee.
The Fusion victory strengthens
the Republican grip on the New York
State Legislature.
The Communist Party is lodging
protest with the Board Of Elections
on reports that many Communist
votes were stolen.
With the passage Of the repeal
amendment by Utah, the 18th (PTo-
hibition) Amendment of the Consti-
tuition will go into discard about Dec.
or s.
In other cities many Of the en-
trenched political machines were de-
feated as the voters showed their de-
termined desire for a way out Of their
present miserable conditions.
In Bridgeport, Connecticut, the So
cialist Party swept almost its entire
ticket into office, with Jasper Nc
Levy as Mayor, and twelve aldermen
also elected. The Communist Party
in this city polled small total OF
several hundred votes.
In Philadelphia, the Ware Repub-
lican machine was defeated for the
first time in two decades by fusion
candidate.
In other large cities, the voters
turned out whatever party was in
power. In Buffalo, N. Y, the Demo-
cratic Party won its first victory in
so years against the Republicans. On
the other hand, in Kingston, N. Y,
the Republicans turned the Demo-
Gratis out of office.

FORCED WORK
BY
WHITE HOUSE
w ould Take Jobless
Off Relief Rolls
By Nov. 16

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Nov.
S.-President Roosevelt will
take four million unemployed
workers off of the relief rolls,
two million before Nov. 16 and
two million later, and pace them at
work on forced labor, many contract
ed out to private corporations, it was
revealed in a White House statement
today. The statement further dis
closed that one and one-half million
unemployed workers have been taken
off of the relief lists, on the excuse
that they no longer need relief. The
plan actually cuts relief since 1t d.
verts relief funds to public works
channels.
This so-caIled winter relief program
of the President will suffice, the
White House announced, until spring,
and will be the only measures taken
by the administration. Unemployment
insurance is not mentioned. Nothing
is said about what wages the unem-
ployed workers will receive. The new
program is announced as a funda-
mental change in the Roosevelt I'M
employment policy. If it goes through
it will have a far-reaching effect in
setting much lower standard OF
wages. 1t is, in effect, the placing O:
four million unemployed on forced
labor. No unemployed workers not
now getting relief will be added to Tire
relief lists, as the program effects
only those now on relief rolls. II
means the taking Of most of chose
now on relief, off of relief lists anc

union conditions, wages and hours fol

bodies under the direction of thu

ing this cheap labor to work for pri-
vate corporations, and is directed

A. F. [. Union Calls
Scabs to Testify in
Fur Injunction Suit
A.F.L. and Fur Bosses
Seek Writ to Outlaw
Industrial Union

NEW YORK.-An rTay OF strike
breakers yesterday presented evidence
in behalf Of a permanent injunction
which the International Fur WORK
ers Union, In collision with the AS
ISOLATED Fur Manufacturers Associa-
ton, is trying to obtain to outlaw the
Fur Department Of the Needle Trades
Workers Industrial Union. 1t was the
first day of the trial before Judge
Edward F. Gavegan at the Supreme
Court. Part 4, on Center st.
Although the A. F. OF L. union
charges the fur bosses with violation
of an agreement contracted in Marcht
1882, and due to expire in January
1888, and wants to enjoin the Tur
bosses from dealing with any but
their union, they aim to prohibit the
Industrial Union from further ac-
tivity in the fur industry. 1t was sig
nificant that the fur bosses against
whom the injunction is supposed to
be directed failed to put an appear
ance in court yesterday. The Indus
trial Union, with a membership OF
5000 fur workers in New York City
represents the overwhelming ma
iority of the fur workers, while the
A. F. Of L. union has practically nc
membership.
All the witnesses appearing in be-
half of the A. F. Of l.. union yester-
day testified, upon cross questioning
by Attorney Boudin for the Industrial
Union, that they had served as
strike-breakers, during the fur work
ers' strike last summer when the fur
bosses attempted to force the A. F,
Of L. union upon the fur workers
They admitted having been sent to
fill the strikers places by the a. F.
of l.. union.
weinberg, the scab who had OBJ
tanned the arrest OF Jack Schneider
and other members of the Industrial
Union last summer, admitted that his
charges of violence had been dis
missed in the courts. Other profess
sional strike-breakers took the same
line, but their credibility as witnesses
was easily broken down on cross ques-
tioning.

City Elections Show
Growing Desire for
Changed Conditions
Roosevelt Influence
Waning Results
Indicate
By JACK STACHEL

The elections held Tuesday
in many cities throughout the
country clearly indicate the
growing dissatisfaction of the
masses with tne state Of affairs as
they are. They reflect the desire of
the masses for a change, for an es-
cape from the present intolerable
conditions. This is so, despite the fact
that this dissatisfaction has express
sed itself in confused form in all
cases.
The vast majority Of the workers
of this country are not yet class con-
scious, although they are becoming
more radicalized and more militant
in their struggles. They therefore eX-
pressed their dissatisfaction, their
desire for a change as best they knew
how. The growing class conscious
ness of the masses is shown by the
increased vote given to the Commu-
mist candidates. We must not fail
to see this mass dissatisfaction in the
elections. It must be taken account
of in all our future plans in our i'm
mediate work.
How did the dissatisfaction OF the
masses express itself? First, almost
universally, the masses ousted the
existing administrations and thei1
political machines. This can be seer
from the results of the election II
New York, Philadelphia, Cleveland
Boston, Pittsburgh, Bridgeport ano
numerous other cities and municipal
tiles. In New York City the Tam
many machine was defeated for thu
first time in 16 years. In Philadel-
phia the Republican Ware machine
suffered a defeat in the city elections
for the first time in 20 years. In
Boston the candidate supported BY
the present Curley administration was
defeated. In Pittsburgh the Mellon
Republican machine was defeated for
the first time in many decades. In
Cleveland the Republicans recaptured
control from the Roosevelt Demo-
Gratis. And finally in Bridgeport the

Dollar Drops Again
as US. Hammers at
Imperialist Rivals
Means Further Rise in
Living Costs and Cut
in Real Wages


NEW YORK, Nov. S.-The dollar
dropped rapidly today as a result OF
renewed inflationary blows by the
Roosevelt government against the
currency of its European imperialist
rivals.
AS a result, the British pound
scared to S4e5, reaching the highest
point since the break-out of the
World War.
This means that the United States
is wrestling away whatever trade ad-
vantageS Great Britain possessed
over the United States as result of
the depreciation of the pound.
1t is inevitable that Great Britain
will soon retaliate against the United
States in an effort to win back some
Of the last advantages of the depre-
ciated pound.
Reports from London indicate that
the Bank of England is girding itself
for renewed currency warfare against
its American imperialist rival.
1t is of extraordinary significance
that American markets are not re-
spending to the latest inflationary
measures of Roosevelt. This means
that further sharper doses Of infla-
ton are inevitable.
This is definitely forshadowed by
the continued weakness in the prices
of government bonds. The bond
market gives definite indication that
the credit of the United States gov
eminent is coming under a cloud.
The inflationary warfare between
these two inperialist rivals means
that the working class of both Britain
and the United States will be ex-
pected to accept another cut in their
real wages.
