planes were built). But what will
this ten billions of new money do
to prices? 1t will send every day
prices skyrocketing in a crazy swoop.
The cost Of living for every single
worker in the country will double
and treble. There will be more
nloney-but 1t will be worth less
than ever before! ~ =
Some jobless workers who now
have no income at all will have
some paper money in their hands.
That is true. But what does this
ten billion dollar scheme do to the
working class as a whole? 1t
slashes the buying power of those
workers whose pay envelopes stay
stationary by sending prices to the
sky. te
In short, Coughlin's plan spreads
the buying power of the employed
workers to include the jobless! The
ten billion dollars of new paper
comes out of the pay envelopes of
the workers now working, and the
buying power of the working class
as a whole stays the same or even
drops as prices run away beyond
control. This is just what happened
In Germany in the post years
of 1928, bringing ruin to the
whole toiling population, and i'm
mense profits to the capitalist spec
ulators.
Coughlin's ten billion plan, which
sounds so good and so juicy to
millions of penniless workers, is
thus an attack on the working class,
is trick to rob one section of the
workers of buying power to help
another. The net result Is that the
workers get not new buying power
at all, but rather less than ever
before. As for the capitalists, they
will quickly gobble up this new ten
billions, concentrating wealth more
than ever before.
Is 1t not clear how nice this plan
is to the capitalists? 1t doesn't hurt
cent of their profits; on the con-
trary, II increases them, fer as even
bourgeois economists know and ad-
nit, n a period of initiation prices
always run up much faster than
wages. And the difference makes
for new profits.
Now we can see why Coughlin
hates the Communist Party propos-
ais to solve the problems Of the
crisis. The main purpose of his
plan is to protect the profits OF the
employers. The Communist Party
proposals strike right at the profits
Of the employers and the banks.
The Communist Party demands
that the funds to feed the unenl-
| ployed, to provide unemployment
insurance, to build public works
must come from the piled up profits
of the banks, the SURPRISES of the
corporations, the incomes Of the
millionsires. and the war funds Of
| the government! Not a flood oil
cheap, paper money, bat heavy
taxes on the rich right now, a cap
ital levy of ten per cent on all big
fortunes, right now! Make the rich
pay, not the poor! Against all in
! flation like Coughlins, which is
only concealed wage cut! The
program that will be discussed al
the January ST Congress for Social
and Unemployment Insurance-this
is in the interests of the workers
not Coughlin's fake money schemes
We have seen how Coughlin
works, and in whose interest ne
works.

Bennings Citizens FIay
Transportation Service

Over crowded cars, and irregu-
lar service furnished by the Cap
ital Transit Company, to the Ben
nings section were charged in
criticism by the Bennings Citizens
Association at their meeting last
night. It was claimed that 25
minute service, with frequent de-
lay is the only transportation
furnished their section over crowd
ing of cars particularly by pupils
of the Young School causes much
annoyance to the patrons of the
road, many Of whom were forced
to leave the cars at Twenty-fourth
and BenningS Road where the
school is located, it was said. The
matter will be taken up with the
Public Utilities Commission.
Claiming that frequent requests
for street improvements had been
ignored by the Highway Depart
ment, and that needed repairs
were not even given attention, the
association will appoint a special
committee to call on the Com
missioners to urge consideration
be given the neighborhood.

Swing To Law and Order
The Eighteenth amendment,
Mr.. Offutt said, brought disre-
spect for practically every law on
che statute books. Court records
VIII indicate this situation has
been greatly improved under the
operation Of the new law.
The nip flask sale was con-
demned, and Immediately upon
discovering the "short drink" on
the market, regulations forbidding
Its sale were issued after a con-
ference with the District Com
missioners.
In defending the board in issu-
Ing licenses to Establishments at
Connecticut Avenue and Abe
marie Streets over objections of
residents Of that neighhorhood,
Mr.. Offutt said the nearest house
was over 200 feet from any Of the
established places, and that under
the circumstances the board did
not feel justified in refusing
licenses to the 10 business places
that had been in operation for a
west, at 8 p. m. next Sunday.
Asks Fair Trial
The alcoholic control law is new
and should be given a thorough
trial, Mr.. Offutt said. It is the
ambition of the board to adminis-
ter the law without fear or favor,
and it encourages the opinion of
all citizens associations, the rep
resentative bodies of their neigh
borhood.
