The Automobile

The automobile was not a one-man
invention. Hundreds Of persons, in the
last half of the last century, worked
on schemes for self-propelled vehicles,
and others on the internal combustion
engine. The discoveries of many Of
these people are incorporated in every
car today. On April 10, 1892, the first
gasoline automobile in the United
States was operated by its inventor,
G. A. Duryea. Another of the first was
a gasoline car invented by Elwood
Haynes, and first driven at Kokomo,
Ind, July 4, 1894. There had been
several earlier machines in Europe.

Relief Cut Threatened
on November 9th

ST. LOUIS, Mo, Nov. A con-
ference on Unemployment Insurance
and the City Relief Ordinance was
held october 18th, at the Food Work
ers Industrial Union Hall. 1t was
attended by about $50 persons. Plans
were laid for second and larger
conference to draw in labor unions
and churches. This conference is to
be held three weeks from the date
Of the first. A committee of action
of 25 was elected. A small commit
tee will go to Jefferson City in a
few days to present the demand for
Unemployment Insurance.
A State Convention is planned
within the next month.
The Unemployment Relief Ordin-
ance for st. Louis was adopted as
well as the Unemployment Insurance
Bill. Resolutions were passed against
the sale stax which Governor Park
is trying desperately to put over by
appeals to the pubic. Resolutions
denouncing the lynchers of Negroes
and deporters Of foreign I'm, were
passed; demanding no d. y ?tion of
aliens because of working lass &C
tivity and demanding the uncondi-
tional release of the Scottsboro boys,
Tom Mooney and all class war pris-
oners. A resolution demanding the
withdrawal of police from relief sta
tons was also passed,
We plan to put signs for Unem-
ployment Insurance in our windows
instead Of the U. S. 'Under Slavery"
signs, and put up posters for Unem-
p!oynent Insurance and the City Re-
lief Ordinance; also to paint signs
on the sides of barns and sheds and
streets against the sales tax and for
Unemployment Insurance.
Fifty-five thousand persons in st.
Louis and st. Louis County are
threatened with stopping of relief
after Nov. unless the sales tax is
passed. We are calling all workers
to demonstrate in the largest dem
onstration of its kind in the city. to
be held at the City Hall, where the
demand for the City Relief Ordin-
ance and Unemployment Insurance
will be presented to the Board of
Aldermen.

Mass Picketing in Fisher Body Strike Given
AS Example of Militancy

The leaders of the I.W.W., Cederwal
and Co., continued the policy they
followed in the Briggs strike and
lined up with all the enemies of the
| workers.
| In contrast, the Auto Workers
Union, militant union organized
on an industrial basis to include all
auto workers, gave the strike the
| fullest support and pointed out the
steps that had to be taken in order
| to win.
The Communist Party backed the
strike to the utmost and its men,
bers among the strikers were the
most active fighters for a militant
| policy Of spreading and strengthening
the strike. On Sunday, Oct. 8, the
Communist Party called meeting
in Danceland Auditorium, where it
modified workers to support the
strike and help spread it to produc-
ton workers.
Leaders Block Victory
The strike was, however, seriously
handicapped by the misleadership of
]. J. Griffen and Matthew Smith,
leaders Of the Mechanics Educational
Society. Griffen. more crudely and
openly, and Smith, under a smoke
screen Of radical phrases, carried
through the same reactionary policy
of preventing rank and file control.
of railroading through changes in the
original demands adopted by the
strikers, and Of opposing the devel-
opment of such tactics as would win
the strike.
Every strike knows that the origi-
nal strike committee was not elected
by the strikers, but was a hand
picked committee Of the Smith Grit
fen gang. 1t was only under ire

Detroit Communists Urge United Front Fight for Auto Organization

The acts of Mr.. Carmody, repre-
sentative of the MIRA. in Detroit
and of the local compliance board
helped to disillusion many strikers
But Griffen and Smith rushed tc
the aid of the employers and the
government and told the strikers tc
rely on the NR.A. in Washington
This was exactly what the employers
wanted. BY dragging out negotia-
tons and paralyzlng strike ACTIVITY
they were abe to demoralize the
ranks of the strikers. The MIRA
capped the climax by insulting the
delegation to Washington and send
ing them back empty-handed.
1t is clear that the policy of Grit
fen and Smith has been a strike
breaking policy and actually no diff
ferent from that of the A. F. of l.
leaders. 1t is equally clear that the
N. r. A. is not an organization to
help the workers get their rights, az
Griffen and Smith pictured it, but
a government strikebreaking agency
whose object is to help the employers
lower wages and the general living
standards of the working people oil
this country. Griffen, Smith, the EN-
ployers and the government worked
hand in hand-against the strikers
These tactics of the Smith riffen
clique were responsible for the fact

Tiger Tries to Bride
Registered Red Voters
With New Relief DoIes

NEW YORK.-Tn the Williamsburg
section of Brooklyn and on the lower
East side of Manhattan, workers who
registered Communist and have since
applied for relief are finding Tam
many suddenly very anxious to
serve" them.
Many letters are coming in to the
Communist Election Campaign Com
mittee, telling of these prediction
activities Of the willy Tiger.
But that the attempt at this sort
of bribery of workers Will fall short
of its intended aim can be found in
the letter of an Irish worker who
writes, in part:

get, but they'll never know how 1

for tneir approval or rejection,
which was rejected, the Mayor Civ
ing a written answer to all of the
IL points of the Ordinance, all but
the one pertaining to lights and
water and the eviction clause.
The workers committee pointed
out that the Mayor was hiding be-
hind technicalities in his statement,
which in most cases said that the
Council was not allowed to do this
or that by law, that this or that
was the function Of some other
governing body. The Mayor be-
came much agitated over this and
said that the Committee was trying
to harrass the Council instead of
cooperating with it. The Unem-
ployed Council will continue the
fight for its demands.

Fisher Body, has given an example
of how picketing should be carried

winning the strike is to concentrate

arity between those who have gone
back and the men still on strike, and
to call for The support of the pro-

If this cannot be done within the
next few days, it is necessary to call
off the strike, make an organized

as strikes of the tool and die makers,

the American Federation of Labor,

The advertisement, which has been

workers that there is strike in the
shoe factories where they will be
sent TO scab. Workers are gener-

strikebreaking tasks.

the notorious scab herder, DeLisse,
