In the Congressional elections
Tuesday. November 6. the Com
munist Party. the Party of the
working class, represents the i'm
mediate needs and the enamel
patton of the workers, the poor
farmers, the Negro people, and
the impoverished middle class,
from the miseries of a bankrupt
capitalist system.
For five years. the nation has
been In the throes OF a terrible
crisis. The Republican Party OF
Hoover and now the Democratic
Party of Roosevelt, have both
failed to relieve the suffering OF
the people or to overcome the
crisis. Their policies have served
only to further enrich the biggest
the monopoly capitalists, and
to further impoverish the masses
of the people. With the continu-
alton of such policies the cap
italists will only succeed in plac-
ing further tremendously in
creased burdens on the masses.
The Communist Party is the
only political party which leads
In the everyday fight of the
masses OF the people for improv-
ed conditions; 1t alone offers q
practical way out Of the APPALLING
misery and suffering brought on
by capitalism and capitalist rule.
Fifteen million people remain
unemployed with still made
quate relief. in fact with reduced
relief.
The masses stlll clinging to
Jobs have had their real earn
ings sharply reduced through
the dual process of NRA codes
and initiation.
NEGRO PEOPLE DISCRmIN-
ATED AGAINST
The Negro people are discrim-
mated against on the job and
in handing out of relief; Negro
share-croppers are being driven
off the land by the cotton reduc-
ton program and forced into
starvation! they are undergoing
the greatest poverty, suffering,
persecution and terror.
ROosevelt's AAA, embOdying
the willful destruction OF hun
dreds of millions of dollars worth
of cotton, wheat, cattle, etc.,
while millions go hungry, has re-
suited in more evietions Of farm
ers from their land, in more fore
closures and in the further i'm
pOverishment of the mass of poor
and middle class farmers. The
AAA destruction, combined now
with the drought, has brought
the whole farming section from
Canada to Mexico to the condi-
ton of famine.
Millions OF working class house
wives are being compelled to seek
employment in industry, with
wages for women being far below
the already low wages for men.
The young generation, with the
school system in almost total col
lapse, is growing to manhood and
womanhood without prospect OF
jobs or future security. The New
DEAL 70 rthe youth means mil
itarization and forced labor in
camps under army supervision.
The small business men and
the lower middle class have been
brought to the point OF ruin,
while the New Deal" has greatly
strengthened the position and
increased the profits OF the big
trusts and monOpOlies.
On all sides, more privileges
and power for the wealthy and
more misery, suffering and dis
ease for the masses characterize
the deeaying capitalist system.
Faced with their own inability
to solve the paralyzing economic
crisis by ordinary means, the
capitalist rulers of the country,
the Morgans, Rockefellers, Fords,
through Roosevelt, who acts as
their chief executive, prepare for
imperialist war, for new world
slaughter. The billions needed to
keep alive the hungry masses
are spent instead on means OF
murder, on battleships, machine
guns, tanks, airplanes, poison
gas.
