The Unemployment Councils
have asked for the most rigid dis
cipline in all ranks and firm resis-
lance to all provocations. At the
present iuncture, the Councils
pointed out. nothing must show to
the LaGuardia regime any disunity
in the ranks of the unemployed.
The Councils further called upon
all workers not to permit any dis
turbance which would prevent the
speakers from the Workers Unem-
ployed Union from being heard.
Leaflets explaining the reasons
for the full support which the
Councils are giving the demonstra-
ton at which they have been re-
fused any official representation
will be distributed at the demon
stration.
The unity of the unemployed
must not stop at today's demon

should be carried into practice in
the day to day struggles in the
neighborhoods. Joint demonstra-
tons and committees should be
formed at the local Home Relief
Bureaus, and mass meetings ar
in the neighborhoods.
