Meet Sunda y
inPhiladelphia

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Oct. Ii
Following the refusal of the Park
Commissioner to grant a permit to
the Unemployment Councils for a
mass meeting at Reyburn Plaza on
Saturday, Oct. 20, at 2 p. M, call
has been sent out for an emergency
conference to be held Sunday, Oct.
IA, at 2 p. M, at the Needle Trades
Hall, 913 Arch Street. No amount
of police terror, the Councils de-
clared, will stop the unemployed and
relief workers from assembling at
Reyburn Plaza; every effort must be
made for a huge turnout.
The emergency meeting Sunday
will make plans for modifying the
membership of all working class Or
CARNATIONS for the mass rally on
Oct. 20, at which time the committee
Of one hundred, which is to place
the unemployed demands before the
City Council, will report.
Calls for a united front on the
fight for the use of Reyburn Plaza,
traditional meeting place of Phila-
delphia'S unemployed, have been
sent by the Unemployment Councils
to the Communist Party and the
Socialist Party. Complete support
was pledged by the Communist
Party. From the Socialist Party the
Councils have received the assurance
of David Felix that he will per-
sonally support the Workers Unem-
ployment Insurance Bill, but since
he could not speak for the Socialist
Party as a whole, he referred the
Council committee TO other members
of his party. The Council committee
will make every effort to meet with
the leadership of the Socialist Party
it announced. as well as individual
members in the fight against hunger
and evictions, for adequate unem-
ployment relief, for joos at trade
union wages for all unemployed, and
for the Workers Unemployment In
sllFance Bill.

The proposal of the electrical
manufacturers to raise the work
week from 36 to 40 hours came one
day after the A. F. of L. convention
i'm San Francisco went on record for
r. f1ve-day week and six-hour day
without, however, increase in week
, ly pay.
The intention of the bosses takes
on added significance since their
proposal follows on the heels of the
reports from Pittsburgh, which in
dictate that the United States Steel
Corporation is planning to cut the
wages Of its 100000 workers by at
least 10 per cent.
The present drive against the liv-
ing standards of the workers was
initiated by Roosevelt in his recent
1reside broadcast. He raised the
point that weekly wages were not
as important as annual wages,
hence paving the way for wage cuts
on the ground that the manufac-
turers could give more employment
If their weekly payrolls were
slashed.
Workers are thus confronted by
q concerted wage-cutting drive and
a concerted effort to increase the
working week The campaign Of the
Communist Party for a shorter
working week with no decrease in
pay must take on new momentum
in the light of these developments.

Say Bag Company Pays
Less Than SIS Weekly

NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 11.-Em-
ployes of the Mente and Co. bag
factory are on strike for better
wages and hours. The employees
charge the company with disregard
ing even code wages. They are
worked, they declare, as much as
fourteen hours a week overtime,
with wages sometimes as low as
S49l week.
President Mamie Lee of Local
2O71, United Textile Workers, de-
clares that the company pays wo-
men from $461 to $40 a week and
men from $500 to 5000 a week.
They are on 54-hour week instead
of the code 40-hour week.
Company officials admit that they
make no effort to pay the code
minimum of $12 (the Southern
minimum and claim that they are
not governed by any code, although
they are part of the textile industry.

By Unity

ROSWELL, N. NJ. Oct. Ii
United action to smash the grow
ing tide of fascist and vigilante ter
ror throughout the State of New
Mexico has been entered into be-
tween the rank and file Socialists
and the Communists. Workers who
are members of either party have
been thrust into Jail; vigilante
bands are seeking to terTorize all
workers who take militant action
for relief or on strike.
In Clovis the Socialists ere rally
ing to the support of jailed Com

in Roswell. At Ratoon the Com
munists are defending the Spanish
American Federation. United &C
ton by both has stopped the
vigilantes in many places.
Together with the Farm Holiday
Association the Socialists and Com
munists have adopted the follow
ing united front:
All uncomradely criticism against
one group by the other will cease
at once and the united front will be
relentlessly maintained. B t h
groups have pledged to protect each
others homes by every means at
their command against court frame
ups, police terror, and by securing
bonds and protection against thugs
and vigilantes.
The meetings of both groups will
be protected and assisted in every
way, and the hospitality of each
others homes will be extended TO
their comrades in both parties and
functionaries in either party as
true comrades in a common strug-
gle.
Both groups have agreed to take
steps to encourage united political
action. Both groups have united to
their fullest extent for the defense
of the Soviet Union.

General Motors Official
Extols Scheme at
Cincinnati

CINCINNATI, Ohio, Oct. H.
The "Deane American Plan" for
slashing wages in industry under
the guise of unemployment insur-
ance was placed before the Ma
tional Conference of Catholic Char
tiles here yesterday. The plan, spon-
sored by Albert Deane, deputy ad-
ministrator of the Federal HouS-
ing Administration and president Of
the General Motors Holding Cor
poration, provides for mutual Sc
curity'' of workers and industry, ac-
cording to the words of its sponsor.
Briefly the plan calls for setting
up board to establish the number
of hours work feasible" in any
given industry and the staggering
of work to all workers employable
in that industry.
DR.. George K. McCabe, of the
University of Pittsburgh, who also
spoke on unemployment insurance,
declared that the currently pro-
posed plans for unemployment in
surance were "unsound," with the
possible exception of the Groves
Law wisconsin Unemployment
Compensation Act).
The Wisconsin Law, which is be-
ing fought by the workers of that
State, who have called a mass con-
ference for the Workers Unemploy-
ment Insurance Bill to be held IN
Milwaukee on Oct. rs, eliminates all
the present unemployed, farm and
domestic employees, government
workers, teachers, railroad work
ers in interstate transportation and
employees in plants at which less
than ten are working. Payments are
limited to maximum of ten dol
lars week for ten weeks.

j. s. PROTEST
On OIL PLAN
|RKS JAPAN
BY JAMES r. YOUNG

TOKYO, Oct. 26 G.N.SO.-The
magnitude of the new crisis be.
tween Japan and the United
States and Great Britain over the
proposed state oil monopoly in
Manchukuo was clearly revealed
here today when Japanese news
papers defied a police ban and
published full details of the diplo-
matte exchanges in the affair.
There was no attempt to dis
guiSe the fact an acute situation
exists, due to the firm belief OF
Britain and America that Japan
is sponsoring this monopoly for
purely military purposes.
Hits Oil Companies
The proposed law for establish
ment of the monopoly would com
pei the Standard Oil Company
and the Royal Dutch Shell Com
pany to construct storage tanks
at a cost of $20,00O,000 without
the slightest guaranty that no
losses would be sustained by the
investment.
Furthermore, the American and
British companies would have no
assurance of non-interference in
the project by the Manchukuo
government, and no promise has
been given that the work could
be carried out without government
supervision.
Tokyo newspapers featured the
TACT that the United States. Brit
ain and the Netherlands. working
IN sympathy if not actual concert,
nave formally warned Japan that
the proposed monopoly is in viola
tlon OF article of the nine power
treaty, which established the open
door policy in China and what is
now Manchukuo.
Chairman Is japanese
An interesting sidelight on the
affair is that Keizaburo Hasimoto,
chairman of the Manchukuo oil
board and leading figure in the
monopoly. is president of the
Japan Oil mpany and a
brother-in-law of Gen. Takashi
Hishikari, commander of the Jap
aneSe army in Manchukuo.
Business men declare it is COM
mon knowledge that the Man
chukuo monopoly bill is being
prepared under Tokyo's direction,
despite the diplomatic attitude of
the japanese government that the
affair is sole concern of the I'm
dependent" state of Manchukuo.
