meeting here will elect a delegation
to meet President Roosevelt on Mon

Unemployed Councils sent letter to
Mr.. Roosevelt informing him of this
fact.
The matter was discussed at the
National Conference today and il
was emphasized that in view OF the
sharpened situation caused by devel-
opments in the last days undoubtedly
efforts will be made to use the bank
crisis as an excuse TO eyade respon-
sibility in the matter of direct relief
to the unemployed and unemploy-

Democratic National platform. The
conference supports the demands of

Continue Wall STREET Program

Continue Wall STREET Program
Roosevelt's inaugural address, al
though couched In demogogic terms
clearly showed that Wall Street is
determined to try to meet the new
stage Of the crisis by a fiercer drive
against the standards of life Of the
masses and by an accelerated plunge
toward imperialist war.
Roosevelt's campaign phrases about
the forgotten man" vanished from
his speech. In place Of this he stated
that in the event Of a further plunge
he would demand broad executive
power TO wage a war against the en-
Urgency as great as the power that
would be given to me if We were III
fact invaded by foreign foe.
This means the throwing aside OF
all constitutional pretexts, the at
tempt forcible to suppress the grow
ing revolt OF WORKERS. and farmers
against the hunger program of United
States imperialism. 1t was quite clear
that this indicates the desperation OF
the ruling class as it is increasingly

The Money Changers" Joke

war time measures, which can In

of working class organizations and

William H. Woodin, secretary OF
the treasury, the successor Of Andrew

directly connected with the biggest
Wal Street bandits, listened to these
hypocritical words without batting an

It is probable that on Wednesday
Roosevelt will summon g special ses~
sion of congress to lam through Iegs

industrialists and try to smash down

Rockville High School
News Happenings

DIR. j. w. Byrd addressed students
at the high school on April 3. His
talk was in the series of vocational
addresses to the students by men
active in the various vocations.
DR.. Byrd outlined the educational
requirements of physician. After
finishing high school, student must
attend college or lake pre-medical
course, then spend four years at med
ical school. This is followed by two
years as intern in hospital without
salary. At least eight years after high
school are necessary before money
can be earned.
An insight into the development of
the profession was also given. Meth
DDS of sanitation and sterilization
have aided in the treatment of
disease and decreased the mortality
of operations.
On Thursday morning at special
assembly the entire student body and
the faculty were addressed by Miss
Jessie Snow of the League of Ma
tons Association in Baltimore. Miss
Snow explained that the idea of per-
manent world peace has been worked
on for many years, both in America
and abroad. Theodore Roosevelt ad-
vocated league to enforce peace. 1t
was not until 1920 that any tangible
movement got under way. 1t was then
that the League of Nations was estab-
lished. 1t is well organized and repre-
sents fifty-seven nations. 1t has been
seriously handicapped by the refusal
of United States to join. Still it has
strengthened itself in every way pos
sible and has had many far reaching
results"
The regular assembly was held on
Thursday afternoon. Mr.. Schott,
spoke briefly on an outstanding adj
vantage of high school education.
Of the five thousand inmates of Mary
land pencil Institutions, only ten or
eleven are high school graduates. The
reason is given that high school stu
dents gain sufficient self-respect, and
respect for their families, state, and
community, 20 enable them to arise
above the level of those less well ed
ucated.
A very entertaining group of
Italian and Negro dialect monologues
were presented by Ormund Ferguson
of the Bethesda Chevy Chase High
School. Mr.. Ferguson was introduced
by Milton Morris, former student of
that school, not attending Rockville
High School.
