prevent an open-air meeting at

tration of the A. F. of L. leader, the

29.2 Increase in Basic
Foods During Past
Is Months Cited

WASHINGTON, D. c., Sept. 27.--
The sweeping upward trend in food
prices continued during the two
week period ending Sept. II, Com
missioner Lubin of the Bureau of
Labor Statistics announced yester-
day, citing a 292 per cent rise in
basic food prices during the last
IS months. Present food prices, the
report said, are now at the highest
point of the last three years.
While all foodstuffs scared in
price, even food substitutes con-
tinued their upward rise; oleomar-
gerine rising 6 per cent in the two
week period covered by the report
Dairy products, eggs, sugar, fruit,
vegetables, cereal products, bacon
lard, in fact, every item in working
class diets has been affected by the
price rise, according to the report.
Further Rise Expected
Nor is the end of the price rise
in sight. Secretary of Agriculture
Wallace has continually stated that
prices would rise sharply during the
coming months. Officials of the
Great Atlantic and Pacific food
stores have expressed the opinion
that food prices will continue up
ward throughout the winter.
Samuel Knighton, president Of
the New York Produce Exchange,
stated in recent radio address:
The very low prices of the last
five years must be forgotten. The
only tangible evidence of the close
adjustment of production and con-
sumption will be in a higher cost
Of production"
Means Cut in Relief
The total rise in food prices OF
29.2 means to the working class a
like cut in wages on the item of food
alone. To the millions of workers
and their families on work and di-
rect relief it means a relief cut
driving them further into destitu-
ton.
To guarantee the employed and
unemployed measure of security
against the rising cost of living and
the increase in unemployment, the
Congress for Social Security will be
held in Washington on January 5,
6 and to demand that the Roose-
velt regime enact unemployment in
surance as embodied in the Work
ers Unemployment Insurance Bill,
which is one Of the major planks
in the Communist Party election
platform.

Fifth Receives
Term in Coast
Jobless Rally
High Bail Is Set for
Three Pending Appeal
By /. L. d.

LOS ANGELES, Cal, Sept. 81
A Los Angeles court has just passed
sentence on the fifth worker of the
six jailed by the police following
the attack upon the unemployed
demonstration held here on June
l when thousands of workers massed
before the relief offices demanding
adequate relief. James 10th, the
fifth worker sentenced, was given
fifteen months in jail by Judge
Arthur Crum. The others, James
McShann, Harold Hendricks, jean
Saunders and Earl Tinnery have
been sentenced to terms up to two
years in prison by the same Judge.
The conviction of Totn, which,
like the other convictions, is being
appealed by the International Labor
Defense, leaves only one more work
er to face trial after the arrests at
the June l demonstration. The
other, Arthur Milton, SO, is still in
the Glendale hospital, recovering
from broken thigh, broken leg,
a broken arm and internal injuries
inflicted by the deputized thugs and
police.
High bail has been placed by
Judge Crum on all the prisoners for
appearance pending an appeal.
John Sanders is out on $4,000 bail,
and Hendricks on $1,000. The I. L..
D. is conducting a vigorous cam
paign to obtain necessary bail.
Tinnery is held on $500 bail;
McShann on $1,000; 10th on $4,000.
In the case of Sanders, the l. L. D.
was forced to raise $4,000 property
bail to cover bail set at $4,000.
Every property owner in Los An
geles is urged to phone the Interna-
tional Labor Defense, Madison 4415.
if his property is clear and taxes
paid, so that property bail might
be raised to free the June First
prisoners.

port for the work of the Youth Sec
ton of the American League
Against War and Fascism was
pledged today in a letter received
from Hayes Beall chairman of the
National Council of Methodist

am trying to say that we would
like to have been able to give this
full consideration, and that we are
determined not to pass up an in
vitation to form a united front
when such an opportunity is really
offered.
Our best procedure from now on
seems to be to plan to work with
you as fully as possible in the
follow-up work of your Congress-
and to look forward hopefully to-
working with you officially in your
next congress. at
Power to you in your anti-Wars
struggle; it is our struggle also"

Unemployment Councils Urge Food Prices
Textile Workers to Continue Now Highest
Fight for adequate Reliet In Three Years

NEW YORK.-The National I'm
employment Council has issued a
statement to the textile workers,
emphasizing the need of carrying
on fight for relief. The state
ment declares:
Owing to the treachery Of the
leaders Of the textile workers, tens
of thousands of textile workers not
only face the blacklist, but will not
obtain work perhaps for many
weeks or months. The treachery of
the textile leaders, which was car
ried out with the cooperation of
President Roosevelt and the Wi
nant Mediation Board, was well
prepared. It was about Sept. IL.
that Frank German stated that
William Green would cali a con-
ference Of representatives of the
internationals affiliated to the A. F.
of L., for the purpose Of raising
relief and affording further sup
port to the textile workers on
strike. Immediately following this
statement, Green declared that the
conference would not be held till
the converting of the A. F. of L.
convention in San Francisco on
Oct. l. This left the textile work
ers to battle alone, without even
sufficient food to go on the picket
line.
Harry Hopkins, Federal relief di-
rector, declared that the govern
ment would not "underwrite the
strike" Following upon this, in va
rious parts of the country, the re-
lief director refused to grant any
relief to the strikers.
THE strike is officially over but
the textile workers have not all
gone back to work. Many of them
are determined to battle on, in
spite of the betrayal of their lead
