Committee Assignments in the
House of Delegates

The attention of The Republican
has been called to an unintentional
error made in a recent issue in which
it was stated that Delegate Fike was
assigned to but one committee of the
House and Delegate Cullers received
no committee assignments. This in
formation was CLEANED at the time
from the announcement of committee
assignments appearing in the Balti-
more Sun. Recently The Republican
has received an official list of the
committee assignments announced by
the Speaker of the House. Mr.. Gull
lers is a member of the elections, Ii
brary, manufacturers and printing
committees, while Delegate Fike is a
member of the currency, pensions and
railroads and canals committee.
The Republican is glad to make the
correction.

Mr.. JOS E. Harmed, accompanied
by Mrs. Harmed, left Oakland Tuesday
morning for Baltimore, returning yes
terday afternoon, accompanied by
Mrs. Harold H. Harmed and infant

in the county Jail on charges growing
out of an automobile wreck yester-

the accident and has not been appre-
hended. Martin said he had attended

RELIEF BUREAUS
STOP ALL RENT
PAYMENTS HERE


NEW YORK. Vicious cuts In re-
lief TO unemployed families it was
learned yesterday will be instigated
by the Home Relief Bureaus here inn
mediately. No rent checks are to be
paid for any family, whether on the
relief list or not, or whether they are
evicted on TO the streets. No more
food checks are to be issued to any
family not yet on the lists and those
who are on the lists but have not yet
received their first food ticket are
also to be cut off.
Families are to be instructed by in
vestigators after applications are
accepted" that the jobless will have
to go to the city lodging houses for
shelter or live with relatives.
The reason for the sham accept
ance of applications is twofold. Firstly
to drive jobless families through a
maze of legal technicalities and thus
drive many to give UP attempting to
get relief and second to stay within
the law which requires the accep-
lance of such applications.

from 1915 years. Many of them are
the sole supporters of families Wages
of these children are as low as Is
cents a week and range up to 50.
The strike is being waged against
the D. D. Shirt Co. and the Penn
Allen Shirt Co. The child workers
are demanding prompt payment of
wages, q. ten percent increase, return
of the pay cut and recognition of a
union.
Attempts to break the strike by
threatening evictions and the with
drawa1 of relief from the families Of
strikers are being made by the relief
board. The Pennsylvania Industrial
Board ordered truant officers to force
the striking children back to school
since they are not working. SO great
was mass sentiment against this
move that the Board was forced to
withdraw its order
Complaints against unsanitary con-
ditions in these shops are admitted
by the State Industrial Board. They
have had these reports in their files
for years, they state.
Governor Pinchot and Frances
Perkins are shedding crocodile tears
over the plight of the miserably ex-
plotted child workers but are taking
no steps to force the bosses to pro-
vide decent wage or to indict them
for their criminal acts against the
children. Police are cooperating with
the bosses in arresting the children
on minor charges. One 18-year old
boy was sentenced to 10 months in
Jail for minor charge.
Sweatshop owners not only I'M
derpay the child workers but rob
them of the miserable pittances they
receive. In some shops cents from
each pay check is deducted to cover
the cost of the federal tax on bank
checks. One shop recently forced
each worker to pay part of the 500
fine imposed for failure to take out
workmen's compensation insurance.
The Amalgamated Clothing Work
ers Union, which is guiding the strike,
is working through specially APP
pointed Mayors Committee on Sweat
shops and is placing faith in the
State Department of Labor to remedy
conditions, which has ignored the
interests Of these workers in the
past.

a sharp rise in the prices In the
domestic markets. The other is to
arm the United States with weapons
in the present fierce world struggle
for international marketx
The essential feature of the whole
program is that it is designed to re-
duce the costs of production of the
American manufacturers, by permit
ting them to pay wages in cheapened
dollars, and to permit American
manufacturers to undersell foreign
competitors. The net result for the
working class is another sharp low
ering of their living standards
through deprecated currency and ris-
ing prices.
