Part OF the speech of Herbert
Benjamin, national organizer Of the
Unemployed Councils is printed on
Page 3. Benjamin addressed the
joint committee Of both houses OF
congress and spoke against the
Roosevelt forced labor plan. He was
not allowed to finish his remarks.
WASHINGTON, March 26. - VIII
liam Green, president of the Anert-
can Federation Of Labor, has approx
ed the Roosevelt Robinson Wagner
forced labor bill, which is designed
to herd into tent colonies, under a
prison military regime, 100000 unem-
ployed workers under the pretense Of
a relief measure.
Green's approval followed an am
endment to the bill as originally pro-
posed, striking out that clause speci-
flying that one dollar a day shall be
paid, and substituting a statement
that the president is authorized to
organize and ray the men as he sees
fit. Rooss cit can now declare the
81 day wage, with Green's approval.
Roosevelt has already stated he sis
not impressed with" any arguments
against the 81 day wage.
Green Aids Forced Labor Plot
This comes after the gesture OF
Green and the Executive Council of
the ALL. at the Cincinnati Conven-
ton in favor of what they called
State Unemployment Insurance.
The testimony of Green before the
joint senate and house labor commit
tees, was only for the purpose of try
ing to deceive the workers into be-
heving that the amendments to the
bill eliminated labor's principle objec-
tons. Green opposed" the 81 a day
wage In his testimony before the joint
legislative committees, but now de-
clares 81 a day is all right If called
cash allowance" instead Of wages.
General McArthur In Charge
General Douglas Macarthur, chief Of
staff Of the United States army, told
the committee that, under the plan,
the army would recruit the workers,
examine them physically, provide
them with clothing uniform prison
garb) and give them preliminary
training.
Demand Relief and Insurance
The growing numbers Of workers
that are being involved In the strug-
gle against the bill are more insist
emily demanding that the whole pro-
ject be definitely stopped and that
the government, instead of such vici
Gus conspiracies against the working
class in its efforts to keep from
granting immediate relief and unem-
ployment insurance, be compelled to
grant the demands Of the National
Unemployed Councils as expressed in
the bill presented last December by
the hunger marchers.

A Victory>>>Continued Fight
Alone Can Free Tom Mooney
A SECOND TRIAL for Tosn Mooney

SECOND TRIAL for Tom MONEY!
"A This is victory for the working class OF the United
States and of the whole world that should on to action
the fight everywhere against capitalist terror and capital
ist class justice.
tt was the worldwide roar of working class indignation
and the militant action Of the working class of old Russia
the proIetarian revolution approaching with tenn
pestuos speed that rescued Tom Mooney from death
gaows which he sentenced by the agents of the
public utilities trust of California.
Now after seventeen years of struggle to set Mooney
Free ruling class has been compelled to the
to grant second trial.
This decision has been preciptated by the united
front movement which preparing the gigantic "Free
Tom Mooney Congress" which meets in Chicago April
80 to May 2
At no time since this frame-up 1916 perperated
has the struggle free Tom Mooney been relaxed for sim
gle day. But the latest phases of the struggle during the past
few years has this become part of all the mass
struggles against hunger and wagecuts for Negro liberia
on for the fight against deportation of foregnborn work
ers Mooney has become the symbol of working class
martyrdom All over the world the agents OF American I'M
perasm have pored the murderer of Sacco and
Vanzett the jaers of Tom Mooney, the lynch
sprators of the Scottsboro boys
THE prosecutors Of the stats of California will enter this
second trial without the fantest hope of being able to
conviction for the simple reason hat their per-
ured evidence of the first trial is known all the world
This indicated by the action of the San ancisco district
attorney Matthew A. Brady who demonstrativey
nounced that would not handle the prosecution the
ground that the second Mooney trial would be make
believe affair"
Yet in spite of this the laws of California decree that
bs second trial will have legal bearing the life
sentence Mooney is serving.
This partial victory consists in the fact that again. this
time in one of CALIFORNIA; courts the innocence OF
Mooney will be proved However must never forget that
greater harm could to Mooney and the cause OF the
working class than to yield to egastc illusions that Cali
fonias ruling will release Mooney when he is proved
innocent in court
THE final action the Mooney rests with the working
class It was action that saved Mooney from the
qaows was action that forced second trial This
partial victory spur to determined action the
working class this country and the world to force open
the doors San Quentin and place Tom Mooney again in
the fighting ranks of the proletariat from which he
snatched as the victim of capitalist vengeance.
In every working class organization this issue should
again be raised The call for the Tom Mooney conference at
Chicago must with such response that the California
fraa,eup gang and the whole ruling class will know that
they must free Tom Mooney.
