of settling minor grievances and then
hailing a great victory.
What regard the G. g. N. w. has
for agreements can best be judged
by the fact that the present dispute
itself is against fragrant agreement,
violations by the road. The Rail
road Brotherhood Unity Movement,
with Offices at 208 North Wells ST.,
whose leaflets and activities are ex-
posing the shady character of the
recent strike" ballot, is responsible
to great exent for the sudden
desire of Sergeant to negotiate.
This step by Sergeant though"
said members Of the Unity Move
Inent, 'is an effort to break up the
growing forces OF the rank and file
movement, which alone can force a
favorable settlement through organ
izing into rank and file groups on the
job. Unless this is done, regardless
of what promises are made to the
men, the c.. g. N. w, will continue
its attacks on wages and conditions. .
The Unity Movement also pointed
out that in yesterdays negotiations
no effort was made by the Brother
hood chiefs to demand the return
OF the ten per cent cut.

Hopkins Supports Only

FIRING CONTINUES
F our Million Families
Were Jobless,
He Says
By SEYMOUR WALDMAN

WASHINGTON, Feb. 23.-
Pressed for particulars about
his mysteriously mentioned
work relief '1ong range plan"
for the unemployed and the
precariously ST uated c. W. A. work
ers, Harry L. Hopkins, G. w. A. and
Federal Relief head, today revealed
that the new program will not take
care Of the G W. A. workers new
being "demobilized" into utter des-
titution. The new program will be
announced "the first of the week,
he added.
"Win this new plan take care Of
hose now being 'demobilized'?"
Hopkins was asked by your cores
pendent.
"I wouldn't say that" he replied
calmly.
Rolls Emptied Before May
Nevertheless. he again repeated the
stale Hoover slcgan, THE -nec~17 RE
going to be taken care Of" an OBJ
vious manoeuvre to ferestall n
protest against the announced Nfoy /
complete shu. down Of the C. w. A.
project.
SPEAKING at regular press con-
ference, Hopkins also announced that
UP to TODAY 20 600 c. w. A. work. S
have been thrown of the work ro7 s.
Based on the approximately 10000
who were officially announced to be
on c. w. A. when the demc5iIizat.on
process began on February Is, this
means that nearly three quarters Of
a million have been thrown into the
street in one week. At this rate, the
rolls will be emptied even before
May /.
Admits $500 600 Families Were
JobleSs
The correspondents we're electrified
to hear Hopkins declare thas 'Lact
March we had four and half milf u
families flour to a family on relief
Figuring conservatively, and consider
ing the great number Of people VITO
were destitute, or registered but net
on relief, this means that Hopkins
virtually admits thai there were
about sixteen million unemployed in
March, 1888.

Administration Telegram
Shows Maneuver to
Restrict Criticism

NEW YORK-Replying to a tele-
gram of the National Recovery Ad-
minists.ation on the appearance Of
Robert Minor in Washington at the
MIRA. public hearings beginning
Tuesday, Feb. 81, the Communist
Party declares that it demands the
full and free right to present its posi-
ton against the entire NR.A.
The hearings, originally announced
by General johnson for Feb. 81 to
Mar. 5, declared that all complaints
would be heard. But the telegram
sent by the MIRA. Conference Com
mittee to the Communist Party shows
that an effort is being made to split
up the hearings in such way as to
prevent a full exposure Of the whole
effect of the NR.A.
The MIRA. Conference Committee
telegram reads: Kindly advise which
groups Robert Minor wishes to adj
dress. One is on employment, group
two on prices, group four on code
administration and improvement, and
group five on small enterprises and
minorit.es. This information is neces-
sary for registration. We will grant
one half hour for your presentation,
but prefer to limit any one group to
20 minutes"
Answering this, the Communist
Party wired: Your telegram relating
to the MIRA. hearings and enumerat-
ing five groups asking us which we
wish to address is very unclear as to
which groups would give us an OPP
portunity to best present our COM
plants.
General Johnson has given his
word that all groups will be allowed
to voice complaints against the
MIRA, and we have urgent com-
plants from the viewpoint of the
n
