Tluing class facing the deep distrust
and anger Of the broadest masses,
Reaction Wins by Provocation
The reactionary forces have sue
ceeded in strengthening their posi-
ton by organizing actions and DEM
onstrations, under radical slogans,
following after series Of mass dem
onstrations over period Of three
weeks under the leadership Of the
Communist Party, which has been in
the lead in exposing the corruption
of the whole government In connec-
ton with the Stavisky pawnshop
scandal, and the looting of the social
insurance funds.
The reactionary fascist leadership
undoubtedly gained Roadway through
the disgust of large sections of the
middle class at the support which the
Communist Party, led by Leon Blum,
gave to the Daladier government,
which sought desperately to white
wash the investigation.
Socialists Raise left" Slcgan
The new premier has the support
OF the Radical Socialists, to which
Daladier belongs, but the Socialists,
having helped the reaction into power
by their tactics, are once again rails
ing understanding slogans, and cry
ing for a fight against fascism and
for the defense of political liberties.
They have announced their opposition
to the Doumergue government, and
criticized Daladier for resigning.
The Communist Party, which led
the only outright fight against the
whicewashers and the reaction, under
the slogan Of united front struggle,
has called for united fight against
the developing fascism which has
brought Doumergue into the saddle.
General Strike Monday
A national general political strike
of "a hours is called for next Monday
by the National Confederation Of
Labor, under the slogan Of defense of
liberties and the republican regime.
Street clashes again last night, be-
tween demonstrating workers and pc
lice, and between young fascist
groups and the police, resulted in
several hundred more being injured,
and at least two killed.

Although Moffer was named as the

Directly after the shooting, both

When the fascist leader, Smith, &C

rerzani, despite the fact that he was

In his confession, Moffer claims
hat he acted in self-defense, falsely
tating that the anti-fascist workers
VINO were holding a unter-demon-

attacked the fascist thugs. Shortly
1fter the killing, Moffer was decorated

hat Terzani was framed by the cap

CWA Workers Union
SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Feb. a.
Indignation is running high among
the hundreds Of CWA workers who
have been layed of from CWA pro-
jects around san Antonio. More
than thousand have been notified
that they will be layed off in the
course Of coming week. Those few
who viii remain for while longer
on the jobs doing work on war prep
aration projects around the air fields
and Fl. Sam Houston have had their
pay Slashed more than SO per cent.
1t was this that led the workers
to respond to mass meeting called
by the Provisional Committee for a
Relief Workers Union of San An
tonic to protest the action of the
Roosevelt government.
The workers, white, Negro and Mex
lean overfowing the hall, responded
unanimously to the speakers calls to
unite and build the Relief Workers
Union which will organize their strug-
gle against the starvation measures
imposed by the New Deal.
A telegram to Roosevelt protest
ing the discharges of CWA workers,
dema. immediate reinstatement
of those discharged, no wage cuts, no
discrimination on account of color
or nationality and demand for en-
actment of Workers Unemployment
Insurance Bill was unanimously ap-
proved by the workers.
The mass meeting also approved
sending a telegram to the National
Unemployment Convention, support
ing its program of demands. More
than 40 workers at the close Of the
meeting applied to join the Union.

members were on the floor. and it
is highly possible that reconsidera-
ton will be demanded. Even If the
Senate'S approval stood, the change
would have to be approved by the
House, which only last week cut off
compensation, and by President
Roosevelt, who apparently is opposed.
Wagner's Demogogy
To Wagner's argument, Senator
Borah OF Idaho, another Progressive
Republican, responded by reminding
the Senator that CWA and relief ad-
nlinistrator Harry L. Hopkins told the
Senate that $950,O0o,oOO would be
sufficient for all relief and CWA until
next January.
Wagner said this involved an OPP
tirnism he couldn't share. He declared
it would mean, at best, SIS per week
for each family of five who will be
in need.
Funds Gone Saturday
With CWA funds running out Sat
urday, the mass pressure of the work
ers for the extension of CWA Jobs,
and for the Workers Unemployment
Insurance Bill was reflected in the
Senate today when the So-called "in-
surgent'' group through Senator Cut
ting, Democrat, New Mexico, offered
amendment to increase the APP
preparation for federal relief IOWA
and direct relief from $50 million to
two and one half billion dollars. The
CWA appropriation would be increas-
ed from 450 million to two billion by
this amendment. At the same time
the program of President Roosevelt.
to liquidate the CWA on May l and
appropriate no more than $50 million
dollars, has already passed the house,
and Roosevelt has stated his inten-
ton Of pushing it.
The National Convention Against
Unemployment just held in Wash
ington, had the effect of intensifying
the demand of the workers through
out the country for more jobs and
for unemployment insurance and
strengthened the fight against Roose-
Velt's proposals.
The "insurgent' move for extern
sion of CWA appropriations is seen
by the Unemployed Councils as a re-
suit Of the pressure of the masses,
and at the same time the Uuem-
ployed Councils warn that the Roose-
m assure for liquidating CWA
Jobs is being pushed through while
an attempt is made TO lull the mass
protest by promises of the possibility
Of larger appropriation The mass
fight for extension OF CWA jobs and
for the Workers Unemployment In
surance Bill must be intensified, the
Councils stated.

The pa. ade wound up with meet
ing at Bryant Hall called by the
Cafeteria Section Of the Industrial
Union to prepare for q general strike
to gain improvements in the condi-
tons of the cafeteria workers.
Speakers at the meeting linked the
coming struggle Of the cafeteria
workers to the hotel strike. Jay
Rubin, secretary of the union pointed
to the acts Of Gitlow, Cannon and
the renegade leadership of the Anal
gamated Union in the hotel strike
and showed that they were throw
ing cold water on the fighting spirit
Of the strikers and dissipating the
struggle by creating false hopes that
a settlement can be won without a
fight"
"The strike must be won, but it is
necessary for the rank and file to
take control Of the leadership Of the
strike, tie up the hotels from cellar
to roof and unite to win on the basis
Of the definite demands" said Rubin.
Pittsburgh Strike Strong
Sam Weisman, Of the Trade Union
Unity Council Of Pittsburgh reported
on the hotel strike there. Weisman
scored the rank white chauvinist pol
icies Of the Amalgarnated leaders who
have failed to raise any demands for
the Negro workers in the present
strike.
mo demands were raised by them
for the Negro workers, in this way
lending support to the hotel owners
in playing the Negroes off against the
white workers. No struggle can be
won unless Negro and white are
united solid. Our union follows the
revolutionary policy of uniting Negro
and white workers" he said amid
tremendous applause. He said the
hotel strikers must raise the demand
in their strike for no discrimination
against Negroes and equal pay for
equal work
The striking hotels in Pittsburgh
are tied up from cellar to roof, weis-
man declared.
Sam Krarnberg, organizer Of the
cafeteria department spoke on the
tasks in preparing for the general
strike, pointing out that the most i'm
portant task was to penetrate the
cafeteria chains and lay the basis BY
careful organization for the struggle.

AT WESLEYAN METHODIST
Rev. w. w. Henry, Pastor, An
nOunces Services for the Week

At the Wesleyan Methodist
Church beginning at 1870 o'clock,
the Kenshaft Sisters of Lester, Pa,
will begin another revival meeting,
which will continue until Tuesday
evening, May 1st. The evangelists
are well known in Smyrna, having
recently been in charge of a four
weeks meeting which came to a
close on March 18th. This church
being evangelistic in its activities,
visions the need of a concentrated
effort to spread the gospel of sal
walton to the unsaved everywhere.
Jesus told Nicodemus: "Ye Must
Be Born Again or Ye Canot Enter
Into the Kingdom of Heaven" 1t
is not numbers, money or property
that is the gospel harvest; but peo-
pie to be convicted by the Holy
Ghost, that they are aliens from
the commonwealth of God and
must be converted bask to God.
We cordially invite everybody to
become a part of these meetings,
and bring their friends to be a
helper to the harvest, which is so
plentiful. The Rev. F. A. Butter
field, president of this conference
will be here to preach and conduct
the last quarterly conference of
the church on Sunday evening.
The pastor wishes to express his
appreciation to all who have aided
in the furtherance of the cause of
the church. Also charitable atti-
tude and expressions to him. Our
burden here is the advancement of
His righteous, kingdom in the
hearts of the people. The church
will have charge of the Welfare
Home service at 2.30 Sunday. The
Ladies' Missionary Society will
hold a social hour on Saturday ev-
ening at the home of Mrs. Hilda
Clough. An invitation is extended
to all the friends of the organiza-
ton and the church.
