Seamen Strike in
BaItimOreAgainSt
Compulsory Labor
Jobless Dele G a tion
Goes to Washington
With Demands

BALTIMORE, Md, Jan. 1.-Two
hundred unemployed seamen have
declared a strike against an attempt
of the Federal Relief Administration
and the Anchorage to reintroduce
the forced labor system for all those
receiving relief. A mass delegation
was sent today to Washington, where
they will present their protests to
Federal Administrator Hopkins. One
of their main demands is for 81 a
day cash relief for unemployed sea-
men.
An announcement was made Dec,
81 that forced labor would be in
stituted beginning Tuesday, and that
Hardin, the Anchorage official,
would be made FEDERAL Relief Ad-
ministrator there. This is the first
step upon the part of the F. r. A.
and the Anchorage officials to crush
the movement led by the Waterfront
Unemployed Council, which recently
has scored number Of victories,
compelling the authorities to put out
three meals a day, abolish forced
'abor and to recognize the right of
he unemployed committee to inspect
Il relief and present the grievances
f the Seamen.
The Waterfront Unemployed Coun-
Gil Immediately called a meeting, at
which 116 unemployed seamen showed
up. Demands were drawn up against
lOIN fn n cfv ivn
attempts were made to enforce it.
The demands also included the re-
moval of Hardin and Mitchell from
the Federal Part of the Anchorage
Building, and the recognition of the
committee.
At supper time that night, which
was Immediately after this meeting,
the committee took the floor while
the men were eating and began to
read the demands. The Anchorage
officials called the cops, who came on
the run, but seeing all the men stick
ing together they decided not to
pinch anyone.
When Hardin said the committee
did not represent anyone, the COM
mittee called upon everyone to show
their support by coming outside.
Over two hundred marched outside
the Anchorage, shouting their slo-
gans, especially DOWN WITH
RACKETS.' Not over half a dozen
remained inside-stool pigeons of the
Anchorage. A short open-air meet
ing was held and the demands all
read and adopted by the meeting. A
committee was elected to go to
Washington. Then the meeting was
adjourned and everyone went back
to their supper No one was black
listed.

Barbarism Delayed
Sh orta ge of Funds
Holds Up Action

BERLIN, Jan. 2.-Nazi plans for
mass sterilization of political OPP
ponents of the fascist regime, under
the guise of sterilizing hereditary de-
fectives, were delayed today as re-
suit of the failure of the sterilization
courts to open, due to the growing
financial bankruptcy of the Nazi gov

DR.. Arthur Guett, 'eugenics expert
of the murder regime, indicated. how
ever, that the Nazis are making a
desperate effort to inaugurate this
latest barbarity and that some OF
the courts would begin functioning in
the next few days. Over 100000 per-
sons are slated for sterilization.

Govt Cuts Them Off
Lists To Pay Bond
Interest

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2. - The
Roosevelt government has turned
down more than $4,000 disabled
war veterans who pressed claims
that they be not dropped from the
veterans compensation lists under
the recently passed Veterans Emer-
gency Act.
Of the $1,000 wounded veterans
who were informed that Roosevelt's
$500, 100000 Economy slash
would leave them without any
means of support, only $1,000 were
re-instated. The rest will be taken
off the lists, in order that the Gov
eminent will have funds to pay the
bond interest on it's funded debt
promptly. A vast amount of these
Government bonds are held by Wall
Street banks.

Yields the Real Reason

ITO most of us who have known the Village in
l. recent years the place has been mostly Mr.. Gal
liant In the beginning the Village was probably
more fantasy than fact All the fairly great names
that came out of the Village were not overly i'm
presSive to the looker-around. You scanned the
scene and you said to yourself They could have
picked out much better ventilated places" 1t takes
more than the routine mind of Sunday editor to
endow any section with really great artistic mono
poly And there is slight suspicion that at least
few Sunday editors constructed the legend of the
Village.
Mr. Gallant has been different. He actually lived
and breathed Greenwich Village. Just as a wide
eyed New Yorker do not think 1t is fantastic TO
call him Mr. Greenwich Village himself" In many
parts of the world this very overrated part OF the
big town is looked upon with reverence that to
quite many of us is not altogether justified.
This NAV be due to the fact that not a few OF
our writers and not few of artists got their
start in quarters not wholly comparable to the
better accommodations of shall I say. the Waldorf
Astoria From What have been able to observe
this particular part of the metropolis has been bit
over-italicized. 1 mean merely living in the Village
does not necessarily connote genius, porn 10, &C
uuired or achieved.
However I am quite willing to make exceptions
I think il there has ever been any one who repre-
sented modern symbol of the Village it was and is
Mr. Gallant And the one reason I say this is that
he at a moments notice and without provocation
gets up and yels: This is my home. You guys
can have Times Square. but give me Washington
Square"
OF course when he says thatshe is not being al
together generous. professional person like Lou
Holtz might come back and say: Who wants
Washington Square, and the what9" But what
started out to write very seriously was why should
a gentleman like Mr.. Gallant want to give away his
business.
DO you know why?" persists Mr.. Gallant.
To end the column you must pretend to be inter-
eSted.

his energy and talk is not wasted
upon trying to capture some

The Lost Patrol makes Nc

He does splendid work as he
puts over the idea of fear but I'M

others face death from the Arabs
and the unknown desert. He re-

Miss Pitts is cast as an amateur

It is far-fetched hokum comedy

of. Just for laughs it is suitable
