FIRST GUN IN DRIVE
Seasonal Trade Picked
For Initial Attack
on All Wages
BY Seymour Waldman
DAILY Worker Washington Bureau)

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. "a
Public Works Administrator Har-
old L. Ickes today fired the first
administration gun in the latest big
e5s-goyernment campaign to
drive down wages. The first an
nouncement few weeks ago was
made by President Roosevelt.
Ickes, under whose public
Works direction hundreds Of mil
lions of dollars have been given to
war preparations, made the wage
cutting declaration during dis
cussion with newspaper men con-
corning the Public Works housing
program. In response to question
ing, he declared that some ar
rangements" will have to be made
with the building trades unions rel
alive to cutting the present wage
rates. Following the line set by the
President, Ickes explained the in
tended cuts in hourly wage rates
the pretext of guaranteeing high
er net annual wage.
Asked whether this new wage
cutting plan wasn't merely another
variation OF the "spread-the-work"
or "spread-the-misery," Icles re-
piled, Yes" Ickes also made y
clear that the administration will
follow the demands of the Manu-
facturers' and Bankers Associa-
tions by making another thrust at
trade union organizations.
Would you pay union wages in
your housing program" a reporter
asked him.
1--WE haven't worked that out yet
ne replied.
A concerted wage-cutting admin
istration-big business drive can be
expected when the Roosevelt big
wigs launch their so-called Social
Security program next month.
The highly seasonal building
trades an industry with a compare
lively high hourly rate, has been Sc
lected as the lever for topping over
already low wage scales in other
Industries.
The drive is part of the recently
announced bankers and manufac-
turers program to let natural
forces" operate towards recovery

MASS MARCH
TO SUPPORT
DYE STRIKE

PATTERSON, N. j., Nov. o.
Friday, at 2 p. M, starting from
the Roseland Ballroom, all Paterson,
Passaic and Lodi unions and other
workers organizations will join the
striking dyers in a mighty demon
stration to answer the Chamber of
Commerce and the dye bosses.
viii Parade Streets
The demonstration will proceed
through the principal streets OF
Paterson and return to Roseland
Ballroom where mass meeting in
solidarity with the strikers will
take place.
The chief object In the demon
stration is to counter the efforts
of the Chamber of Commerce, and
various businessmen's clubs who
have launched an intense campaign
through the newspapers to arouse
a sentiment against the strikers
among middle class people and nom
striking workers. 1t Is quite COM
monty regarded among the strikers
that the agitation campaign launch
ed by the employers is preparing
the way for letting loose police ter
ror against the workers in Paterson.
The turnout today is expected to
be so great as to discourage all
such attempts and to rather hurry
the bosses to make a better settle
ment offer.
Deadlock Remains
Another conference between en-
ployers, strikers and Nathan Shelf
ferman Of the Textile Labor Rela-
tons Board, was held yesterday
and broken off on the question of
100 per cent union shop. The Strik-
ers merely ask security, that the
union members be given preference
in the hiring and be the last in
case of lay-off. But the employers
refuse to listen to this.
Emanuel Schavick, speaking for
the employers, stated; The employ
ers have exhausted all peaceful
methods for adjusting the situation,
in which the public is vitally in
terested in the outcome. Where it
will lead to no one knows
Another conference is planned
tomorrow, according to a statement
by Scheferman. The dyers' strike
entering the fifth week today is now
being seriously felt in many de-
pendent industries, especially the
silk mills, with many closing daily.
Not single one of the $4,000
strikers is known to have returned.
The enthusiasm and determination
remains as ever since the beginning
of the strike.

tpaiIr WORKER Midwest Bureaul

CHICAGO, Ill, Nov. %. - In a
meeting crowded with workers,
trade unionists, unemployed and
liberals, the City Council yesterday
granted a parade permit for the
huge united front march on Satur-
day against the relief cut inaugu-
rated on Nov. l. The very presence
of the assembled workers forced the
City Council further to adopt a res
olution protesting the relief slash,
against forcing the iobIess to ac-
cept work relief. and proposing a
public hearing on the matter.
To March From Two Points
The march for which the permit
was granted yesterday will start
promptly at 10 o'clock Saturday
morning from two points - Union
Park at Ogden and Randolph Sts.,
and from the South Side, 22nd and
Wentworth Sts.-and converge on
City Hall, where an elected delega-
ton representing the united front
will present demands for resembling
the relief cut. Other demands are
for public works at union wages,
immediate winter relief. such ss
shoes, new clothing and blankets,
increased cash relief, recognition OF
all committees Of the iobless. and
for the Workers Unemployment In
surance Bill. Central in the de-
mands is that for no discrimination
against the Negro people, youth and
women.
At the City Council meeting yes
terday, Elmer johnson, secretary OF
the united front committee, read
the workers letter setting forth the
jobless' demands and outlining the
route of march. The full text Of
the letter appeared in the Daily
Worker of Nov. IS.
The resolution for granting the
permit was introduced by Alderman
Arvey. Oscar Nelson, president
of the Chicago Federation Of Labor,
was approached by delegation of
trade unionists before the opening
Of the City Council session. They
asked that he introduce the reso-
luton. He fatty refused, and when
the resolution was introduced, he
declared that he had originally in
tended to vote against it. He never
theless voted for the resolution, but
launched into a vicious attack upon
the Communist Party, which is part
and parcel of the united front, and
occupies leading role in it.
Wants No Red Flags
He demanded in his speech in
support of the resolution that no
placards, no red flags, and no signs
against the American form of gov
eminent" be carried in the parade.
He further apologized at the City
Council meeting that he had not
been present at the meeting of the
Chicago Federation Of Labor which
endorsed the march.
The Jewish Trade Union Fedora
ton last Sunday, Reimbursed the
march when a motion was made to
withdraw the endorsement.
Pioneer Children To March
The District Pioneer Council, in
a special notice to all Pioneer lead
ers of children's groups, requested
that all leaders have their troops
out on the streets for the city-wide
hunger march on Saturday at 10
a. m.
Troops on the South Side will
gather at 22nd and Wentworth Sts.;
troops on the North Side and West
Side will gather at Union Park.
The District Pioneer Council re-
quests that only children Of nine
years or more should march.
Younger children should not be
brought to the assembly points.

Kennewick Noses Out
KahlOtus by 7-6 Score
Bill Graves MIA

The Kennewick second team
Lions started out with bang,
completing 30-yard pass from
Brown to Rorick on the first play
and continued to the goal line with
line bucks. The Lion Kittens went
over the goal but were called back
for a penalty against Kennewick
which transferred the ball to Kah-
lotus, who punted the ball out. The
lost score took the fight out of the
Lions and the first half was see
saw affair.
On the opening kickoff of the
second half, Fast, of Kahlotus,
whose legs seem to apply to his
name, ran 20 yards for a touch
down. Fortunately for Lions, they
failed to convert the extra point.
This seemed to arouse the Irish in
the Lions, as they quickly follow
ed with a touchdown and point
which beat Kahlogus.
The starting lineup was Kramer
and Clifford guards; Helm and
Tweet, tackles, Rorick and Jones,
ends; Green center, with johnson,
Jones, Nagley and Brown in the
backfield.
