The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1934-04-12

EARLY Tuesday morning the New York
IA State Senate passed the La Guardia
City Economy Bill.
Yesterday, without a minute of time
wasted, La Guardia's Board of Estimate
announced its schedules for wage cuts on every
city employee-wage cuts which, characteristcally
enough in keeping with the whole demagogic veneer
of the Fusion administration are masqueraded
under the progressive" of enforced burroughs"
While the figures published by the city ad-
ministration attempt to give the impression that
the $4,000 snd-over salaried group will receive the
biggest cuts, a thorough examination of these
figures, coupled with the realization that the vast
majority of vctimzed city workers the lowest
paid categories will make it Immediately apparent
that this wage cut viii be taken out of the
hides of the masses of poor civil employees
Why is La Guardia putting over these cuts on
workers whose wages have already been slashed to
a bare subsistence level? Our progressive" Mayor
says that this is meant to balance the budget
Which leads to second question: what is the cause
of the budget deficit for which city workers are
being painfully victimized? The Daily Worker has
answered this question before, and does so again:
Because La Guardia is intellectually COM
mitted to the city's payment of SIPS 000O 900 year
for the next four years to the Wall Street banks
which swept him into office. For four years these
banks will receive the annual suge sum of $685.
100000, under the terms of the Untermeyer agree
ment.
La Guardia did not for moment think of cut
ting the budget deficit by cutting down the bank
payments. Instead he took it out OF the wages of
the New York masses whom his demagogic promises
fooled into voting for him.
Class conscious workers of New York should ex-
plain this vicious situation to friends and neighbors
the city payrolls Tell them the plain and simple
truth of the matter that they will never be taken
in again by reactionary demagogs like La Guardia
and his gang!

Rescue 80 OFF
Arctic Ice Floe
Three Planes i'm Daring
Flight; Soviet Rushes
More Planes, Ships

MOSCOW, April II. - In heroieI
defiance of unfavorable Arctic ch-I
matte conditions, three Soviet ayi-
ators have rescued 80 of the refu-
gees who have been adrift on q
great ice floe in the Arctic Sea for
several weeks as the result of the
sinking Of the Soviet icebreaker
"Cheliuslin. Official announce
ment of the spectacular rescue was
made today.
It is hoped that the remainder Of
the refugees would be rescued soon.
Airplanes are strung out all alonil
the coast of Siberia waiting for
favorable opportunity to go to thei|
aid, while ships were moving up the
Pacific Coast with more planes. The
Soviet Government had even sent
the icebreaker 'Krassin" by way Of
the Atlantic Ocean and the Pa
mama Canal, while three Soviet awe
ators went via New York to Alaska
to join the rescue parties.
Matching the heroism Of the
rescue aviators, Capt. Otto Schmid,
leader of the scientific expedition,
stuck by his post despite a severe
attack of pneumonia until instructed
by the Soviet Government to leave
aboard one of the rescue planes.
The women and children in the
expedition were rescued some time
ago. Then last week five men were
taken off. The latest rescues were
made by the Soviet aviators, Molo-
koff, Kaminin, and Slepnoff, in two
separate daring trips, one yesterday,
the second early today.

Action of Employed
and Unemployed

NEW YORK. - Growing mass
pressure has forced Commissioner
Of Welfare william Hodson to or
der the reinstatement of 1000 of
the 10000 workers who were fred
when the city work relief" Sup-s
planted the C.W.A. on April 1.
At the same time, the Depart
ment Of Welfare announced that
approximately 10000 of the 10000
fired would be returned to the work

paupers oath missionaries would
be reviewed"
The Unemployment Councils and
the Relief Workers Leagues demand
that all 10000 be Immediately re-
instated, that the QUESTIONABLE be
not used as basis of firing or dis
elimination against any workers.,
and that jobs at original G. w. A.
wages or immediate cash relief
equal at least to G. w. A. pay bel
granted to all the unemployed.
The Councils and the League fur
Their warned all workers now on the
jobs that in promising these jobs
the LaGuardia administration had
made no additional relief appro-
priations, and in emphasizing the
need" requirements, would I'M
doubtedly attempt to fire single
workers now on work relief jobs.
To fight against job discrimina-.
ton of single workers, the Relief
Workers League and the Unem-
ployment Councils urge all workers.
on the jobs to resist any firings by
calling strikes and stoppages of
work in joint actions of the en-
ployed and unemployed, and the
sending Of mass delegations to the
Welfare Department demanding re-
instatement of all fired workers.
Demonstrations and mass meetings
ard delegations should demand that
the Home Relief Bureaus grant inn

Inc committee OF One Hundred
of the Greater New York Confer
ence on C.W.A. and Unemployment
urged all fired C.W.A. workers to
mass in the picket lines at the De-
partment of Welfare, so Lafayette

Citing the Jim-Crow policies Of
the Home Relief Bureaus which
maintain separate lines for Negro
and white workers in the Harlem

all Negro workers to mass at the
picket lines to demand jobs at equal
pay, and the right of Negro work.

that sterilization is not a Yindictive
act" DR.. Gladys schwesinger, head
Of the staff of the Eugenics Research
Association, came out yesterday In
support Of the various sterilization
measures in several Southern states
aimed against the Negro masses and
the white workers rallying to their
defense for joint struggle against
starvation and fascist lynch terror.
She praised, by implication, the
monstrous Nad program of sterili-
cation for political opponents, Jews
and Negroes and other minority
groups, declaring the Nazi program
was ''the most outstanding impetus
yet given to sterilization. She
credited the reactionary California
bosses, jaileFs of Tom Mooney and
originators Of many snti-labor laws,
with giving the cue to the Nazi
butchers. The NaH sterilization act.
she claimed, was patterned closely
after similar law in California.
BERLIN, April II. - DR.. Arthur
Guett, chief director Of the Nazi
sterilization program told the pub
lie health commission today that a
bill for uniication Of public health
departments to speed up the Nazi
sterilization project would soon be
approved by the cabinet.
He instructed the medical profess
sion on their duties In the fascist
Reich, declaring that racial SER
vice" must take precedence over in
dividual health.
A course to promote race and
national chauvinism under the guiSe
Of eugenicS was being contemplated
for ninth-grade students, he indi-
Gated. The course would be taught
at the expense of some other sub
ject, 50 as not TO overburden the

to be the chief speaker. In fact Ben
Gold was not even present at this
conference. However, Ben Gold did
speak at strike meetings, and the
taxi drivers welcomed him and the
support given by Gold and the mill
tant and fighting needle union, OF
which he is a leader. It SO hap
pened that I and Joe Gilbert, chief
organizer of the Manhattan Local
were the chief speakers, Herman
Goldstein of the Brooklyn Local
also spoke. Also Mr.. Most and the
Bronx and Brooklyn leaders were
present at a Joint council meeting
at which this conference was dis
cuSsed. Mr.. Most was the only one
who raised any objection to this
conference to which all labor Or
CARNATIONS, A. F. of L. or otherwise
were invited. Mr. Most did warn
Us that the A. r. of L. unions would
not participate in this conference
He pointed out that it was the Gus
tom of a large number of A. F. of L.
unions in New York City not to at
tend any conference unless Mr.
Panken put his stamp of approval
upon it.
Mr.. Most told us in no mincing
words that the consent of Mr.
Panken for the A. F. of L. unions
TO attend this conference could be
had at a price. The price was the
unions reputation Of Joseph Gil
bert, our general organizer, and the
acceptance of Mr.. Panken as Oul
counsel. Otherwise the A. F. of L
unions would not attend the con-
ference. We refused to pay the
price.
The conference was q success
morally and financially. About
$1,000 was collected for the relief
Of the strikers, enabling us to feed
our starving men with their wives
and children at the soup kitchens
in our strike halls. At the request
of Mr.. Most, some of this Moscow
gold' collected at this conference
went to feed the men of the Bronx
and Brooklyn Locals.
Yes, despite the efforts of Mr.
Most and Panken, we did manage
TO keep life in the bodies Of oul
members. The record of the Social
ist Party leaders, Mr.. Panken, and
Mr.. Most, is one of black shame
Nothing at all in the way of moral
support, nor one cent was forth
coming from all of these gentlemen
to support body of downtrodden
workers who waged the most glori-
Gus battle against intolerable con-
ditions ever witnessed in New York
Exposed Panken's Role
Since the second of February
wave after wave of strikes have
taken place in the taxi industry
I was placed into prominent role
in this union when Mr.. Panken
attempted to put over on the boys
in the Bronx one sell-out agreement
after another. 1t was my repeated
exposure of these sell-out agree
ments that caused the boys in the
Bronx Local to insist that I be
placed upon the Committee of Is
which was the General Strike Com
mittee in the February strike.
Given Knockout Drops
I was placed upon this committee
because the boys of the Bronx mis-
trusted the man the Socialist lead
ers support, Sam Smith, President
of the Bronx local, and also Mr.,
Panken, who worked day and night
attempting to foist upon us an
agreement which gave us nothing
but mere verbiage, vague promises
In the attempt of the Bronx lead
ers, who received the unqualified
support of Mr. Most and Mr. Pan
ken, to get us to accept the SELL
