COMMUNISTS LEAD FIGHT AGAINST
INJUNCTIONS, NR.A., SAYS BEN GOLD

MIRA, supported Hoover to the same
extent when Hoover was going to end
the depression in 60 days Gold said.
"Woll and Green and the A. F. of L.
bureaucracy have been the main bull
wark of the bosses government in
forcing the workers to bear the bur-
dens of the economic crisis. They are
now trying TO prevent the workers
from achieving the Workers Unem-
ployment Insurance Bill, and ade-
quate unemployment relief, which is
supported only by the Communist
Party in the election campaign, and
which the industrial, class unions are
demanding"
Gold, who was one of the leaders OF
the last national hunger march,
called on the workers to not COM
NIT suicide, but fight" He empha-
sized especially the struggle for
equal unemployment relief and equal
rights, economically and socially, for
the Negro workers and for the youth,
which the Communist Party and the
unions of class struggle are carrying
on.
Gold concluded: "a huge Red
Vote in the present municipal cleo
lions will help to defeat the wage
cutting, strikebreaking drive Of the
N.R.A., and will aid the struggle of
the left unions and the Unemployed
Councils for better conditions The
response of the workers of New York
City to the Communist Party in the
present campaign is markedly great
In every part of the city, the crowds
are bigger and more enthusiastic for
the message Of the Communist Par
ty. The workers begin to realize that
the Communist Party points the only
way out of the crisis, not submits
sion to the employers, but struggle
and mass organization.
Vote Communist. Join the Com
munist Party!

of the Daily Worker throughout the
months of June and July as to the
inevitability of the collapse Of steel
production to new crisis low is be-
ing fulfilled.
What hunger and misery stalks be-
hind these dry figures can be seen
from the letter Of a steel worker re-
ceived yesterday by the Daily Worker
from a steel worker in Ohio. He
writes:
"Au of the steel and tin mills in
Niles, Warren, Mcdonald, and the
Youngstown section are laying off
men.
''The Trunbull Steel Corp. in
Warren laid 800 men off last week"
Both of the huge Niles plants
of the Republic Steel are working
only one or two days a week now,
after laying off 800 men,
"The MahOning Valley plant
(which was working on scab yerton
orders during the recent strike),
the Niles Steel Product, the Stan
ley Works, the Barrel Works, are
all practically down."
"Only few men work there in
each plant"
THE Fire Brick Company is on
part time. There is talk that an
other $50 men will soon be laid off
because the steel plants are not
buying their bricks"
SsFytxxro 70 ,ro m,
lief out of a population of 1S,0O0."
MANY of the unemployed steel
workers who got jobs during July
and August are having a hard time
getting back on relief"
"The bread lines at the relief sta
tions are getting longer. Every one
is cursing, swearing at the N.R.A.
and Roosevelt because they can't
get shoes, or coal, or food. And The
local merchants are raising the
price of food"
The economic failure Of the NRA.
and the Roosevelt economic program
is now manifest in every business re-
port that is being issued.
Textile factories are eIoslng down
to such a degree that Jne capitalists
and the Roosevelt government are
afraid to count them. The Journal of
Commerce admitted this yesterday.
Auto production is dropping
sharply.
Retail sales throughout the coun-
try, according to the latest reports of
the Federal Reserve Bank, are run
ming 10 per cent lower than last year.
The bank crisis is growing. All the
efforts Of the Roosevelt government
to pump credit into business through
the banks have failed miserably. The
banks are row choking with $780,
100000 of excess credit.
The Federal Reserve Bank reports

that goods are piling up more than
ever. No markets are in sight.
The farm income is dropping. The
cost Of living in the cities has risen
over 20 per cent since Roosevelt took
office.
The Department of Labor refuses
to publish any extended studies on
unemployment.
But it cannot be hidden that the
army of jobless is growing. Even
Roosevelt's own relief administrator,
Hopkins, admits that 100000 more
families will need relief this winter
than last year.
The fight against hunger and job
lessness is the fight against the whole
Roosevelt MIRA. program which, it
can no longer be hidden, has only
succeeded in deepening the crisis and
the misery of the workers.
THE organization of mass actions,
strikes, alone can wrest relief from
this hunger program.

RAIL COMMITTEE
T0ASK REGULATION
Report Wednesday to Ad-
monish Roads, However,
for Wasteful Practices.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, February 1.-THE Ma
tional Transportation Committee, formed
to investigate the condition of railroads
and transportation generally, plans to
make q report Wednesday admoniShing
railroads for unnecessary duplication of
services and other practices, but recon-
mending, at the same time, regulation
of competitive forms Of transportation
and other relief measures advocated by
the roads.
The committee formerly was headed
by the late ex-President, Calvin Cool
idge, and its four remaining members
are Bernard M. Baruch, vice chairman;
Alfred E. Smith, Alexander Legge and
Clark Howell.
The report is expected to comprise
about 10000 words and to cover in an
incisive manner the questions into
which the committee has delved. A
full report of the studies will be pub
lished later, running about 300 pages.
1t was stated the report will be unani-
nous, but that Mr.. Smith will present
supplemental individual report on
motor bus regulation. upon which he
expressed definite ideas during the COM
mittee hearings. He made it plain then
that he would not favor suppressing a
new form of transportation solely to
benefit older forms, and insisted the
taxes of both groups should be equalized
by reducing railway taxes rather than
by increasing those on buses.
Nothing has been announced to in
dicate If the report will deal in any
way with the question of railway wages.
