termined to improve their conditions
in the present production season.
the Fisher Body workers organized
in the United Auto Workers Fed
eral Union No. 1854 presented a set
Of demands to the company for i'm
mediate consideration. Completely
disillusioned by President Roose-
velt's decision to extend the auto
labor code under which their strike
was betrayed last year. they decided
on militant action to fight the slave
conditions imposed upon them by
the manufacturers under the auto
code.
The United Auto Workers Federal
Union No. 1854, which led the
Fisher Body strike last year, pre-
sented the following demands:
Thirty week.
Weekly minimum wage of $50
for unskilIed and s35 for skilled
men.
Annual minimum wage of 81, $50
for unskilled and 1890 for skilled
workers.
The Communist Party, in special
leaflets issued by the thousands to
the auto workers, pledged its sup
port to the A. F. Of L. organizational
drive in the auto union to smash
the company unions and to fight
successfully the extension of the
auto code.

Los Angeles
Forced Labor
Project Begun
Single Men Are To Be
Herded into Shelter To
Work for Sustenance

LOS ANGELES, Cal, Feb. IL
Yesterday morning the Los Angeles
County Department of Rehabilita-
ton entered into competition with
the private business interests which
heretofore enjoyed sole right to OPP
crate the "slop- joint" restaurants
for unemployed single men who are
on the relief lists.
The department made this ven
ture in the guise of a self-help CO.
operative organization, into which
the voorhees, are being asked to join
so that they may exercise the priv
ilege" of working for their miserable
allotments of food
Arranged by Burt
Clinton H Burt. who is in charge
Of the single mems activities Of the
rehabilitation department, has ar
ranged this new enterprise, which is
to be housed at 213 North Los An
geles Street.
The building, Burt said, will also
house "cooperatives," where the un-
employed who enter the project will
work for credits" which can be used
to purchase the food and clothing
made on the premises. In essence,
this has all the ear-marks of the
semi-fascist program advanced by
Upton Sinclair in his gubernatorial
campaign.
Eight hundred dollars has been
made available to finance the res
taurant, which will be equipped to
feed about 200 men. Burt said that
1900 men are now fed in restaurants
under the relief program.
81 Cents Per Day
The county now provides a mere
"a cents DAY to feed each of these.
This pittance will be transferred to
the new project in proportion to the
number of men accommodated. The
transfer, county officials say, will be
for the purpose Of aiding the ven
ture, and as insurance that the tax
payers will get full value" for this
portion of the relief funds. If the
venture proves successful, Burt said,
others will be opened. Part of the
equipment of the new restaurant
will be Clipped and broken dishes
collected in scavenging activities by
the County Sslvsging Department.

all parties from the ballot which
advocate change or overthrow of
the capitalist government.

sion of the conference and plans
were made to rally widespread

FERA Union

NEW HAVEN, Conn, Feb. IL
With the announcement that all
FERA relief work would be stopped
by Thursday, Feb. 81 at the very
latest, the membership of the FERA
Workers Union Of New Haven has
grown by leaps and bounds, until it
has.now become the largest orgsni-
cation of relief workers ever banded
together in this section.
With the growth of the union and
its putting forth of a militant pro-
gram, the local employers news
papers have attempted to resurrect
the red scare to split open the ranks
of the FERA relief workers.
A letter, setting forth the program
Of the FERA Workers Union and
answering the charge that the union
is dominated by the local Commu-
nists, has been sent to these news
papers. The letter, after pointing
to the fact that all relief is GRIM
inally inadequate, states that the
workers, with the threat of COM
plete stopping of work relief to goad
them on, will not stop until the re-
lief workers are completely organ
lied and their demands granted.
The letter states, in closing:
"As for the Communists, it is well
known that the Communists are the
most courageous and loyal fighters
for the interests of the working class
and are invariably found in the front
ranks in defense of these same in
terests. What do the Communists
want in the FERA Workers Union?
First of all, this union be controlled
by the membership at all times and
not become the property Of one or
few individuals. Second, that all
FERA work must be continued
whether the funds come from fed-
eral or local sources. Third, sde-
quate cash relief for all the unem-
ployed with no discrimination and
support for the Workers Unemploy=
ment, Old Age, and Social Insurance.

Dismissal Won

the best possible legal defense for
class-var victims won another
signal victory for the International
Labor Defense when Circuit Court
Judge Pugsley ordered the dismissal
of the framed-up assault and bat
terry charge against John Rose, Mi
chigan farmer.
Rose was arrested with four other
farmers in March, 1888, during a
protest meeting against a forced
mortgage foreclosure sale of the
farm Of William Lougheed, 77-year
old farmer. The meeting, called by
the Michigan Farmers League, was
broken up by gang of thugs dept
tized and led by the sheriff of New

were charged with violating the Mi
chigan criminal syndicalism law.
The farmers called on the LID.
for aid, and Maurice Sugar, De-
troit'S famous labor attorney, who
Is now running for judge of the
Recorders Court, and John Safran
were retained for the defendants.
A mass protest movement forced
the authorities to drop the criminal
Syndicalism charges. Rose was then
charged with assault and battery,
and sentenced to from 6 months to
5 years in Jail.
The sentence was appealed, and
the Michigan State Supreme Court
reversed the decision. Last Mon

Sympathy Strikes Gain
Added Support to Coal
Walk-Out in Rumania
= Special to the Daily worker

11M1SOARA, Rumania, Feb. H.
eBy Cable).- BY coldly turning down
the desperate strike demands of
1000 entombed miners in the STEER
dorfanina coal fields, industrialists
here today touched off a whole
series of indignant and powerful
sympathy strikes throughout Ru-
mania.
Harbor workers at the ports of
Braila and Galatz struck work on
hearing that the miners had been
forced to erect barbados in the
undergraduates to prevent govern
ment troops from breaking the
strike. To their chief demand. the
end of terrorism against the miners,
the longshoremen added a notice
that they no longer recognized
previous wage-cut as effective. All
metal workers in the capital, Buka-
rest, stopped work to force through
the abolition of 10 per cent wage
cut and to send their deep sympathy
and support to the Steierdorfanina
miners.
