''See That Mass Desire
For Struggle Does Not
Die With May lst''
BY CHARLES KRUMBEIN
District Organizer, New York
District. g p IL s Al

ALL indications promise the big
n gest May Day demonstration this
year that New York has ever seen.
The United Front May Day Con-
ference has been quite successful in
new sections of the work.
ing class. The issues for May Day
this year are clear and larger num-
bers of workers than ever before
show an understanding of these is
sues and are ready to struggle for
their day-to-day demands.
The need and desire for unity of
the working class in these struggles
is greater than ever before. An in
dication of this is the action in
Painters Local No. 400 where 40
voted for participation in the United
Front May Day demonstration and
only 8 against.
Socialist Workers Demand Unity
Wide Strata of Workers
In the ranks of the Socialist
Party and the Young Peoples So
cialist League, as well as among
their followers, there is great fer
ment and demand for unity of
action on the part of the entire
working class. Proof of this is the
fact that the Socialist and Amer
lean Federation of Labor leaders
can only get the workers under
their leadership" to participate
this May Day through mechanical
means. The International Ladies
Garment Workers Union is forcing
all workers to work half a day on
May First and then holding meet
ings of the workers in the shops
with the presence Of the business
agents who will try to force the
workers to come in a body to the
Socialist Party controlled May Day
meeting.
The burocrats in the A. F. of L.
Painters Union are trying to put
across a SO fine against those who
will not participate in the same
parade. Notwithstanding all these
terroristic measures tens of thou
sands of A. F. of L. members, as
well as followers of the Socialist
Party will participate in the United
Front May Day demonstration.
More workers than at any pre-

Cut Relief
In order to split the splendid
unity of the strikers and the un-
employed, relief is being slashed in
Hamilton. The relief officials sent
out circular letters stating that re-
lief was being slashed because it
was necessary to grant relief to the
strikers.
Meanwhile the workers are inten-
styling their drive to obtain ade-
quate and decent relief. Thirty
five strikers stopped an eviction
last Wednesday. Five workers were
arrested and Immediately released
on bail.
AS Hosea and Browning are pick
ing out the most militant strikers
and cutting them off relief, the

hundred Negro and white workers
marched on the relief Office here,
protesting the handling Of relief
cases and discrimination in giving
out relief. Half Of the demonstra-

speak of the cost of relief in the
county, Nygard Immediately nailed
the officials with the statement:
Capitalist corporations and individ-

S1,467 100000 in the last five years
while the working class and con-
sumers have had their taxes in
