Spread Ha!fMillion Copies Of May l
Daily Worker to All Corners Of U.s.!

"The first hundred years are the
hardest" is an old bourgeois say
ing, to be taken with the customary
proletarian grain of salt.
In the same way, the first 100000
copies ordered by the districts of
the special half -million-copy May
Day edition of the Daily Worker,
might be called the hardest too. If
this is true, then the hard work
of achieving this first 100000 in or
ders has already been accomplished.
Here's how:
Chicago has ordered $4,000 copies.
Cleveland has asked for 10000.
Both Detroit and Philadelphia
have equalled Cleveland's total by
ordering 10000 copies each. And
Boston has come through with an
order for 10000 copies.
That makes tentative total so
far of 100000 copies already or
dered of the special 24-page May
Day edition.
And it leaves $4,000 to go!
Judging by this initial response,

To Drop Slash
JObless Strike Against
Forced Labor Near
Hamburg

BERLIN.-Strikes against
attempted wage-cuts under
the new Nazi labor law" are
reported in the illegal 'Rote
Fahne," central organ of the
German Communist Party.
In the Neidig machine building
works, at Mannheim, the man.
agement attempted to cancel the
wage agreement, basing its action
on the proclamation of the labor
law" 1t proposed a piece-work rate
which would make it impossible for
the workers to get as much as be-
fore.
The NaSi shop stewards refused to
call meeting at the plant, to
protest, and a number of workers
called shop meeting at which a
delegation including two members
of the Nazi shop council, was elected
to present the demands Of the work
erS to the management.
Workers Strike on Job
The manager refused to negotiate.
When the delegation reported this,
the workers stopped work. Next
morning, all the workers showed up.
but did not stir finger.
The next morning, the manage
ment posted q notice that the new
regulation was withdrawn and the
workers would be paid under the
old agreement.
The Rote Fahne. commenting on
this strike, warns the workers that
the attack will be renewed after
the slave labor law" is made et-
fective on May 1, and Calls for the
building Of powerful illegal shop
organization and independent class
unions to lead the resistance 10 the
bosses offensive.
Similar strikes occurred IN the
great Spindler cleaning and dyeing
works in Berlin, and IN the Chem
nitz textile factory.
Strike Against Forced Labor
HAMBURG, March 1o.-Fifty I'M
employed workers being transported
to forced labor camp near Verden
went on strike yesterday, shouting
their protests against the hard
work and starvation pay.
Three were arrested, but the
strikers marched back to their home
town.

Japanese Spy Ship

Soviet Patrol Drives
Schooner AWAY
(Special to the paiIy Worker,

Especial to the Daily WOrker)
MOSCOW, March 10 (By Radio
The Soviet press reports new
instance Of Japanese provocation in
the Far East. A frontier patrol
found Japanese motor schooner,
the Totsima Maru, near the island
Of Oskold in the entrance to Vladi-
vostok bay, on March 10.
The captain said his vessel was
engaged in scientific fishing" and
had been forced to berth near the
shore because of motor trouble. The
ship was found to be equipped with
short-wave and long-wave radio
installation.
The ship was ordered to leave at
once. The opinion of the patrol is
that the schooner was a reconnoiter-
ing craft which was carrying out a
specific espionage commission.

Fascination of
Austrian Unions
Meets Setbacks
Not Enough Heimwehr
Workers To Carry Out
Reorganization

VIENNA, March 19.-The faScisa4
ton of labor organizations in Aus
tria is not going forward as fast as
the Heimwehr would like, because
there are not enough fascist work
ers to supply the needed function
aries and shop stewards.
Strong pressure is being put on
factories to discharge workers to
make room for patriotic" elements.
Many employers are resisting, how
ever, because the patriotic" Helm
wehrmen are unskilled, and poor
workers.
Shortage of Fascists
In many plants the program Of
replacing elected shop committees
with fascists has had to be aban-
doned, as there were no suitable
faScistS available.
The Christian trade unions are
opening national congress this
week, at which the main question
will be the influx of workers whose
free trade unions" have been dis
solved. They are swapping the old
membership, with the result that
the system of electing functionaries
has been abandoned, and all Of
f1cials are to be appointed, for fear
the workers will transform the
unions into militant organizations.
The Viennese demonstration Of
the Patriotic Front" which was
to have taken place early this
month was cancelled, because the
Patriotic Front" has no real basis
in the factories, and the fascists
rightly feared their demonstration
would turn out failure.
A government decree gives the
banks and other financial institu-
lions the right to make new agree
ments with their employees, rails
ing their maximum work week from
the previous 48 hours to IS.
The shop stewards of the dis
banded free trade unions have been
carrying on their work and collect
ing dues despite the government
ban. A government decree has been
issued providing fines up to 1000
shillingS, and six weeks imprison-
ment for any shop steward who does
not turn over the funds and equip
ment of the unions to the municipal
authorities.
VIENNA, March 10. An inter-
national group of lawyers, includ-
ing members of the international
commission of inquiry which in
vestigated the Reichstag fire. has
arrived in Vienna, seeking to de-
fend the hundreds of workers held
in jail since the anti-fascist
fighting.
Most of the prisoners, however,
have not yet been charged, and
not even the names of many Of
them have been made public. They
are crowded, as many as nine to-
gether in single cell, and given
insufficient food.
So many anti-fascists are held in
Jail that special buildings have
been put into service, an aban-
doned factory in st. Polten,
movie house in Bruck, where the
prisoners are crowded together
without elementary sanitary ar
rangements, with Heimwehr fascists
armed with rifles and machine guns
on guard. Many are allowed no
more than 10 minutes exercise a
day.

IS SOUGHT BY
WH|TEHURST
CONTINUED from Page y

CONTINUED from Page y
with its plans to revamp the old
Patent Office Building, Captain
Whitehurst will recommend to
Engineer commissioner Daniel I.
Sultan that the District Of Colum-
bia proceed with its plans to
widen the street so as to allow
two-way traffic for automobiles.
The District has the necessary
money-about ,000-for its
share of this work. It would mean
that the street could be widened
by eight feet by an adjustment Of
the fence around the old Patent
Office Building. There would be
q Six-foot sidewalk in place Of the
present eightfoot walk.
Would Add is Feet
The south side Of F Street would
not be touched under Captain
Whitehurst's plans. The corners
at Seventh and Ninth Streets
would be cut by 80 feet. The
actual space in the roadway would
be increased by IS feet, which
would permit initiation Of two-way
traffic on the two.block stretch.
Compared with this plan, how
ever, is the program calling for
removal of the steps to the build
ing and a revamping Of the
facade. This plan has been en-
dorsed by architects in the Ma
tional Capital Park and Planning
Commission, business and civic
organizations, and the Fine Arts
Commission.
Cost Put at $15O,OOO
Cost Of this plan would be
about $150,0OO and the money
would be obtained by either a
congressional appropriation or
from funds Of the Interior De.
partment, which is charged with
the remodeling Of most Of the
Federal buildings.
Just which of the plans will be
put into effect probably will be
decided at a joint meeting of of
ficials of the District and the Ma
tional Capital Park and Plan
ming Commission. This meeting
is to be held this month.

Reports on Belgium
Balloonists Conflict

Brussels, Aug. 18.-(P)-The Bel
gian national radio broadcasting sta
ton late Saturday denied reports that
Max Cosyns and Neree Vanderlist who
achieved a shakespeare altitude rec
ord over Czechoslovakia.
The earlier report, whose authen-
ITCHY the broadcasting station denied,
was to the effect that the two balloon
lists had assembled $4,000 meters ga
1887 feet which Is above all existing
records.
The Belgian officials were without
authentic information as to the bal
looms whereabouts as conflicting re-
ports poured into Brussels.
One report, to the effect that Cosyns
and Vanderlist had landed in the
Saar territory was denied at saar-
bruecken.
At about the same time the balloon
lists were reported sighted near Bad
Aussee. Austria, drifting eastward at
an altitude of between 5000 and 1000
meters.
