WOlman Reports 1882
Wages Fell More Than
In Any Yr. Since 1920

WASHINGTON, May - Wages
dropped more sharply during 1892
than during any year IN the crisis
of 1920, report of the National Blu
reau of Economic Research discloses.
Or. Wolman, who prepared the re-
port, states that the weekly wages
Of workers in manufacturing de-
clined between 1929 and 1882, 81 per
cent; bituminous coal, as, per cent;
metal mining, 38 per cent; railroad,
l6 per cent.
These figures, drastic as they are,
are far from the whole truth about
the decline in the earnings of the
workers, since they do not include
the drop in earnings incurred as a
result of part-time work. Among the
railroad workers, for example, the
decline in earnings is far greater
than DR.. Wolman's figures, since
thousands of railroad workers whose
official wage rate is from 40 to rs
cents an hour, are actually working
only one or two days a week, with
average weekly earnings Of 50 to s11

SCHOOLS CLOSED
FOR 100000 IN
APRIL; NO FUNDS

WASHINGTON, May 7. - Over
100000 school children were told
during April that their classes would
have to be shut due to lack of funds
in City and County treasures, &C
cording to survey of the National
Education Association made public
yesterday.
Thousands of these children had
been forced to stop going to school
as far back as last November.
Teachers salaries have been cut
all over the country from 10 to 40
per cent. Many thousands of teach
ers are being paid in scrip, which To-
cal banks are cashing at a discount.
meaning a further wage cut for the
teachers. In most cases, neither the
banks nor the tradesmen will accept
the scrip as payment or as the equi-
valent of money.
Thousands of teachers are not be-
ing paid at all, in such states as
Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana, Arkan-
sas, and New Jersey.
In addition, all over the country.
the educational system is being cut
to the teaching of the most rudi-
mentary subjects. Night schools, trade
and craft schools, adult education,
kindergarten, classes for foreign
born, classes for the blind, swimming
pools, school Libraries. ETC., are being
draStically reduced or discontinued
altogether. The issuance of free books
Is being stopped all over the country.
The practice Of overlooking the in
dividual teacher with enormous class
es is also widely practiced.
A movement to force the teachers
to teach without pay is being orga-
nized under the guiSe of a save
the-schools" campaign.
The main reason why the United
States school system is being rapidly
reduced to a mid -ninteenth century
level is that the local government are
instituting Economies" in order that
the bankers will collect their interest
payments on time.

At the same time however, Prof.

Labor in urging its affiliated unions
to remain away from this Congress is
a fresh illustration of this evil. This
action is on par with the action OF
the Socialist Party in urging its
branches and sympathiserS to remain
away from the Free Tom Mooney
Congress-
The events of recent years have
conclusively and tragically demon
strated that where the workers and
dirt farmers are divided, where the
labor movement is torn with con-
flicts, it is impossible to stay the adj
vance of FaScism. Fascism means the
degradation of the standard of living
and the destruction of the trade
unions, farmers organizations, coop
erativeS, free schools, the labor and
farmer press and all the independent
organizations and institutions Of the
working class 1t is to the interest OF
all sincere elements in the labor
movement, therefore, to exert the ut
most effort to bring about . United
Front against this danger
United Front Proposals
A United Front does not mean that
organizations must surrender their
identity. 1t does not mean that they
may not differ on important points
In action on concrete measures we
can, however, agree and must stand
united or face the bitter fact of in
eYitable defeat. This United Front
must be on the basis Of action and
struggle. The workers and farmers
and their organizations everywhere
must get together. They must organ
ize in their shops and neighborhoods
to resist further worsening of their
condition and to demand recognition
Of their rights. The honest and pro-
gressive elements in the unions must
get together to make fighting organ
izations out of them. Submission and
passivity on the part Of the workers
and the labor movement will avail
nothing in this crisis.
We call upon this Congress, there
fcre, to declare for united militant
