WASHINGTON, July 16.-Another
slice of $50,O00,00O for war purposes
is coming out of the S3,300,0O0,0O0 in
the so-called public works section of
the industrial recovery" act, this
time to carry out the plan of the
War Department for complete mo-
torization of cavalry and the mechan-
ization of machine gun units of the
infantry.
The Army and Navy have already
been handed over $493 100000 from
the same fund to get ready for war.
In very short time, the greater
part G; the public works budget,
which was supposed to go to pro-
vide employment, will be turned over
to the munitions makers and var
ship builders.
The s50,0Oo,00o will be used to
modernize the cavalry and infantry
so that it will fit in with the war
plans of Wall Street.
The proposal of the War Depart
ment has met with the approval of
President Roosevelt and leading
members of the Senate and House
Appropriations Committee.
Previously the army was allotted
$113,000,000 to speed its war prepa-
rations.

Balbo to come to New York. He
indicated that probably today on
his return TO Albany consideration

SLAVERY ACT TO
HIT RED UNIONS
BOSSES ARE TOLD
Podell, Lawyer Says It
Will Aid A. F. of L.
Regain Position

NEW YORK.-"The national in
dustrial recovery act is giving labor
an opportunity to combat the left
wing groups that have found a foot
hold in many unions" stated David
L. Podell, New York lawyer who as
sisted in writing the slave act in a
speech before a group of bosses at
the Rotary Club here last week.
Podell said that one of the most
important aims of the recovery"
act was to help the A. F. of L.
leaders regain their lost position due
to the advances made by the revo-
lutionary trade unions.
This law" he said, gives them
ca. F. of L. the opportunity to re-
build, Just as it gives to industry
the opportunity to put its house in
order.
"The Communist and left wing
ers have eaten right into the heart
of different labor organizations
Evidence that the industrial re-
covery act attempts to crush action
by the workers themselves against
slave codes is seen in the deter
mined effort of the government, the
bosses and the A. F. of L. leaders
to drive the Needle Trades Workers
Industrial Union out of the fur
industry in New York where it has
organized the workers and led them
in successful struggles for improved
conditions.
The refusal at first to grant a
hearing to June Croll of the Ma
tional Textile Workers Union when
the textile code hearings were on In
Washington is further proof that
Podell knows what he is talking
about.
Podell's speech explains the secret
conferences OF the bosses and A. F.
of L. leaders in drawing up the
codes

40-hour. week at % cents an
hour, and a wage of from SIS
to SIG week in other steel
sections of the country Ia 40
hour week at 81 to 40 cents an
hour.
To make the bill appear acceptsbls
to the bitterly exploited steel work
ers, the steel bosses declared that
is per cent increase in steel wages
is to go into effect immediately
covering 100000 steel workers. The
increase is supposed to raise the
steel workers wages to the $40 and
SIG minimum. AS matter of fact,
the average wages in the steel in
dustry, as reported by the National
Industrial Council, another bosses
outfit, one month before the steel
code was announced. was 1851
week for IS hour week at IS cents
an hour.
The Raise Hoax
The so-called Is per cent increase
is hoax, the bosses having taken a
lower level than was being paid as
the basis for increase. The result
will be a levelling out of wages on
a lower standard.
Organize Against Code.
John Mellon, secretary OF the
Steel and Metal Workers industrial
Union in statement made public
today declared that the union is
organizing the steel workers to pre-
pare for resistance to the slave con-
ditions proposed under the code.
The union now is organizing a del
egation of steel workers to 20 to the
Washington hearings on the code
to expose it and present the de-
mands Of the steel workers them
selves.
The steel code, say statements
here, is acceptable to 80 per cent of
the steel industry. 1t was presented
by Robert P. Lamont, a partner OF
the House Of Morgan and the ac-
tual director of the United States
Steel Corporation which dominates
the steel industry. The 80 per cent
of the steel industry mentioned Is
either directly or indirectly under
Morgan's control.
While the steel code copies word
for word the so-called labor provi-
sion of the industrial recovery" act.

socialists say are such boon to

IS NEGRO YOUTHS
In OHIO FOREST
|, CAMP ARE JAILED
Protest Meeting Called
by Communist Youth
Tomorrow Night

PORTSMOUTH, O., July 16-Fif-
teen Negro youth are in jail as a
result of their opposition to the
selection of certain new squad lead
ers according to news reports in the
capitalist press. They were arrested
in Jim crow camp of the Civilian
Conservation Corps in Shawnee For
est, Scioto Co dnty.
In Camp Preston, New York, five
youth served Jail sentences for pro-
testing the removal of two of their
number and replacing them with
whites. Thirty-four others left the
camp.
On a train at Latrobe, Pennsyl
vania, last week fight started rs
a result of the segregation of Negro
and white youths on the train.
These incidents are daily occur
ences in the camps. They grow out
of the governments vicious jim-crow
policy in the forced labor camps.
White youth in the camp should
take the lead of smashing down the
barriers which government officials
are setting up to divide them from
the Negro youth. Together they
can fight and defeat the rotten
conditions existing in the camps.
Negro youth should not permit
themselves to be bulldozed. Stick
together and with the support Of
the white youth the government
jim-crow policy in the camps can
be defeated.
A meeting has been called for to-
morrow to protest against the at
tacks on Negro youths in the forced
labor camps. The meeting, which
will take place at 81 w. 128th ST., is
called by the Upper Harlem unit Of
the Young Communist League. Youth
and adult workers should attend this
meeting and voice their protest.

it was announced today. Fer
TO was fatally shot Friday
night at a meeting of the fas-
cist Khaki Shirts of America,
Inc, held ct Columbus Hall, 3l-os
Astoria Ave, Astoria, L. I.
Both the arrested and framed
workers have asked the LID. to car
ry on their defense. Frank Scheiner
and Harry Stacker, LID. attorneys,
have been assigned to the case.
The murder of Antonio Fierro oc-
CURED when anti-fascist workers rose
in the hall and asked for the right
to question Art Smith, main speaker
and COMMUNICATIVE chief of the
Khaki Shirt organization.
Immediately Khaki Shirt gang
sters who had come to the meeting
armed, flashed knives and revolvers
A bullet fired by one Of these gang
sters struck Fierro Three others
were seriously injured by knife
StabS.
The police present at the meeting
did not interfere when the Khaki
Shirt gangsters attacked the un-
armed workers, who fought the at
tack back with bare fists. When FL
erro fell dead, the police arrested
Terzani, who was pointed out as the
murderer" by Art Smith. Although
no weapons were found on Terzani
and Palumbo, and the Khaki Shirts
Haunted their weapons openly, the
police did not even attempt to hold
any of the members OF the Khaki
Shirts.
The arrest Of the two anti-fascist
workers was branded by the N. Y.
District LID. Secretary, William
Lawrence, today as a brazen frame
up.
1.-THE man who was killed" the I.
LID. points out, was an anti-fascist
and the workers arrested are anti
fascists. Terzani was pointed out to
the police by Art Smith, leader of
the fascist Khaki Shirts, as the one
who had fired the bullet. 1t is abb
surd to think that the fascist leader
would point to any but an anti-fas-
cist.
THE purpose behind this frame
up is to terrorize the workers in an
effort to check the growing move
ment against fascism in general and
the development of fascist tendencies
in America"
The capitalist press, while playing
up favorably the arrival of the Ital-
ian fascist air-armada under Balbo,
Mussolini's henchman, distorted the
facts of the killing, trying to make it
appear that Communists" went to
the meeting to break it up and used
violence. This is branded by the I.
LID. as a lie. Neither of the ar
rested workers is connected with the
Communist Party. Both are openly
anti-fascist. 1.-THE capitalist press, :"
the LID. stated, lis attempting to
whip up lynch-hysteria against the
two framed anti-fascist workers.

stration which the N. Y. District I.

will be informed about the real facts
