Report Il Dead at
Farewell to Naval
Recruits in Japan
Official News Service
Gives Flukey Reason for
Huge Death Toll

NEW YOEK-Seventy-one people
are reported to have been killed in
Kyoto, Japan, and fifty-six injured
according to an Associated Press dis
patch, under very unsual circum-
stances.
A Rengo correspondent at Kyoto
wired to Tokyo that yesterday on the
occasion of farewell demonstration
to group of recruits for the i'm
perial japanese navy, one person fell
down and cried out. AS a result a
panic was caused among the 10000
present and II were killed.
Undoubtedly the official japanese
news agency is resorting to flights of
imagination to explain the death of
SO many people at the time Of mill
tary celebration.
This story covers many possibilities.
There may have been some anti
militarist demonstrations which met
with bloody attack by the police, or
there may have been some action by
the recruits themselves which met
with some prompt bloody encounter.
Whatever the truth, certainly the
official explanation Of some one
crying out" and II people being
killed is crude.

Fire Workers From
Detroit C.W.A. Jobs
AS Relief Is Cut
Give ''Ineffciency' a
Reason; Union To
Demand Jobs
BY A. B. MAGIL

DETROIT, Mich, Jan. 8-The fir
ing of workers on C.WA. jobs in De-
trolt has begun. Saturday night about
seventy were laid off from the pick
and shovel lob at Belle Isle Park.
Two Of the fired C.W.A. workers, in
terviewed by the Daily Worker, said
that about q dozen were laid off in
their gang and handed Sins by the
foreman giving "inefficiency" as the
reason. Three workers said thew have
had no previous complaint Of "inef-
ficiency."
They had worked six weeks at SIS
a week on the thirty hour week basis.
The C.WA. still owes them weeks
wages.
More lay-offs are expected. With
the county relief officials slashing
relief appropriations at the demand
of the federal and state relief
agencies to half the November figure,
there is no chance for a CWA worker
who has been fired to get back on
the relief lists.
The Unemployed Councils and the
newly organized Relief Workers Pro-
tective Association are starting a
struggle against layoffs and demand
C.W.A jobs or relief for all unem-
ployed workers.

Ready for 7 c. Fare,
WageCutAg
Dispute on City Jobs
Patronage Does Not
Touch Bank Loans

NEW YORK, Jan. 8.-The
Morgan Rockefeller banks will
have their City loans and in
vestments carefully protected
by both Governor Lehman and Mayor
LaGuardia, all the latest indications
in the present political debate re-
veal.
LaGuardia is ready to get together
with Governor Lehman anywhere,
any time to provide for plans to
meet the City's payments to the
bankers. These payments amount to
$1s6,OO000o every year.
Last night LaGuardia said that
Lehman would agree with him that
we've got to do more than balance
the budget. Any banker can see that
II you get what mean"
These developments augur well for
the bankers-but contain definite
threats of wage cuts, increased sub
way fares, and curtailed relief and
welfare work for the City's popula-
ton and Civil Service employees
Dispute Over Power
With all the preliminary heat of
party wrangling swiftly subsiding, in
which Lehman refused to agree to
give LaGuardia the sweeping power
he asked for, it became clear that the
only point of dispute between the
Mayor and the Governor is the pre-
else amount of power that LaGuar-
dia should have to cut into the power
of the Democratic Tammany machine
which still has strong roots in the
City apparatus.
Lehman feared that LaGuardia was
trying to build up his own Fusion
party at the expense of the Tammany
stalwarts upon whose approval Leh-
mans power finally rests.
Agree on Bank Loans
On the major question of concern
to the CityS population, they both
agree that the Untermyer Tax agree
ment that places all the City's reve-
nues in hook to the Morgan Rocke-
Teller clique that controls the City's
loans, should be carried out.
In his reply to Lehman today, La
Guardia pointed out that it was none
other than Governor Lehman him
self who arranged for the signing of
the present bankers agreement which
now necessitates the slashing of City
employees wages, the increasing of
the subway fare, etc.

where are those men going to be

In public works. A great many
are farmers who win go back to

be absorbed in seasonal industries
Hopkins evidently conveniently for
cot that poor farmers actually are
being forced off the land under the
Roosevelt program of cutting pro-
duc;ton to boost prices received by
big farmers-and that industrial en-
ployment, even according to the
American Federation of Labor bu-
reaucracy, is decreasing faster pow
than at any time since last January,
despite public works.

Asked whether C.W.A. wage rates
will be reduced when found to be

HUnlan Lies

Yoke in Place
Tells Labor Leaders of
Wage Rise While Green
Is Admitting Drop

NEW Notwithstanding to
deliberate lying about wages
under the N.R.A., Sidney Hill
man, member of the National
Labor Board, and president of the
Amalgamated Clothing Workers, ap-
pealed to the workers to wait and
take no steps against the MIRA.
Hillman spoke at a meeting of the
Russell Sage Foundation yesterday,
attended by 100 Labor leaders" under
the auspices Of the Labor and Pub
Mcity Research Bureau.
His speech about the MIRA. raising
wages, unfortunately for him, was
made on the very day William Green,
president of the A. F. of L. issued
a statement admitting that the MIRA.
had severely lowered wages for the
majority of workers and the stand
ard of living Of all workers
Miss Mary Van Kleek Of the Rus
sell Sage Foundation, answering
Hillman, said that the MIRA. has
given hopes to the workers and
power to the corporations.
She said the workers should take
the lead in the struggle for power.
Labor must adjust itself to the
new situation" Hillnan said, but Of
fered no recipes on how stomachs
could be shrunlsen rapidly.
After first cl3porting section Ia
of the MIRA, through which strikes
we're broken and the company unions
increased from membership of a
little over 100000 to 100000, HILL
man abruptly added that "it should
be amended"
Hlllman said that the workers
should have no fear of "fascism" I'M
der the MIRA, thereby deliberately
conceallng the fascist deeds commit
ted by the government under the
guise of emergency acts to achieve
recovery He said not word about
the war and imitation program. He
ended his speech as he began, plead
ing with the workers to wear the

the miners since 1927; re-instate-
ment of all blacklisted and expelled
members of the U.M.W.A.
Besides these resolutions, others
