Surplus Relief

Commodity Distribution
Will Hereafter Be
Taken Off Budget

WASHINGTON, Jan. % (FP0.-
Relief will be reduced for many I'M
employed by an order of the Fed
eral Emergency Relief Administra-
ton that hereafter surplus relief
products may be counted as part of
the regular budget for individual
relief cases. In the past the sur
plus commodities have been dis
tributed free, in addition to the
regular relief doles. The new order
provides also that commodities pro-
duced on work relief projects may
be distributed as part of the regular
relief budgets State administra-
tons are to submit their plans for
placing the order in effect to the
F. z. r. A.
Instead of being able to buy
canned goods and other products of
quality satisfactory to themselves,
the unemployed affected by the or
der will have to put up with goods
which are often most unsatisfactory
in condition.
Farm pressure, expressed through
the A. A. A, has been one Of the
chief reasons for the former policy
of free distribution Of surplus prod
ucts, in addition to budget relief.
The farmers have naturally not
wanted to have their market re-
duced by the surplus commodities
replacing regularly purchased prod
] ucts.

Relief
StrikeSWeeps
Essex County

TRENTON, N, j., Jan. % FP1.
Several thousand relief workers
have struck throughout New Jersey,
under the leadership of the New
Jersey State Federation of Unem-
ployment and Relief Workers Or
CARNATIONS.
The strike has been most effective
thus far in southern Jersey, partic-
ularly in Vinealnd and Glassboro.
and is expected to tie up Essex
County and other counties near the
New York area
Complaints center around the fact
that workers on state projects are
paid in grocery orders, rather than
cash. A minimum wage of $18 a
week with full union scale for
skilled workers is demanded.
Plans for the strike were under
way ever since the state conven-
lions of both the Socialist and Com
munist Parties endorsed the de-
mands of the relief workers about
a month ago. A harmonious united
front has resulted.
Intimidation is charged by strike
leaders against various project SUI
pervisors. This is also blamed for
the slowness of the strike in getting
under way in Essex County. Lack
of organization previously prevented
relief workers from combating re-
peated curtailment of their relief
grocery orders, but threatened
general shutdown of all state prof.
ects at the end of this month sup
piled the spark that started the ac-
ton.

Milwaukee Store Strike Offers Many Lessons

proposals presented by the union
officials and the government medi-
ators which would have meant total
failure of the strike. Although the
rank and file group fought mill
family and courageously to the end,
they were unable to prevent the
calling off of the strike.
The leadership of the three
unions, determined to break the
militancy of the strikers, carried on
secret negotiations with the man
agement for days. The originally
elected negotiations committee was
ignored and sidetracked. The nego-
tiations proceedings we're never
brought to the floor for discussion
at strike meetings until the night
that the strike was called off.
These tactics of the officialdom
were calculated to demoralize and
wear down the strikers. The lead
ership hoped that by keeping the
membership in suspense, not in
forming them of the proposals, they
could catch them by surprise and
put the agreement over. The Com
munist Party, as well as the rank
and file group, forewarned the
strikers of this coming treachery.
Meetings Undemocratic
Why is it that in spite of the in
fluence of the Communist Party
and the rank and file group,
the official leadership was able to
put over an unfavorable settlement?

Every unit bureau, every section

The settlement signed does not
grant a single one of the original
demands of the strikers. There
we're no wage increases promised,
except that pay schedules will be
reviewed and adjusted to eliminate
inequalities" which may exist.
There will probably be revision of
the pay scale to the N, R, A. mini

than the minimum.
Now there are rumors that the
Boston Store is organizing COM
pany union. Article five of the
agreement allows the company to
discriminate against militant strik-
ers by stating, employees guilty of
unwarranted violence shall not be
considered as eligible for re-em-
ployment."
In the Boston Store strike we
saw the Party acting as force,
and establish an organization,
only after the strike began. How
much stronger would the influence
of the Party be if we had our or
angization prior to the strike? This
means that our recruiting must be
intensified, precisely among workers
belonging to the American Fedora
ton of Labor. These recruits give
us the possibility of extending our
work in the American Federation
of Labor, the central trade union
task of the Party today. A stronger
Communist core in the union could
have prevented the betrayal of the

On the night of the so-called vote

in opposition to the calling off of
the strike, strongarm men would

1t is obvious that such tactics
had demoralizing effect on the
workers, causing great deal of
pessimism, and it would not be very
easy to mobilize the picket lines
again at this time, or to continue
the strike in the face of the oppo-
sition of the officials, the employers
and the government. The Party
leadership was not yet strong
enough nor experienced to carry on
this fight over the heads of the

Daily Worker Bureau AT the re-
cent meeting of the Chicago Fed
Grafton of Labor, on motion of
the delegates from Painters Local
637, the Chicago Federation of La
Dor, by majority vote, decided to
demand from the Illinois Ener-
gency Relief Commission the recog-
milton of all relief committees of
the local unions. This is an i'm
portant victory for the left wing
forces and now must be put into
effect. The Illinois Emergency Re
lief Commission adopted a policy
not to recognize relief committees,

CARNATIONS of the unemployed,
namely, Unemployment Councils
and Chicago Workers Committees.
The Chicago workers fought bit
terly against this in the last few
months. A number of demonstra-
tons, in an attempt to force the
reversal of the decision, were held.
Now the Chicago Federation of La
Dor went on record demanding the
recognition of the relief committees.
This must not remain on paper.
The trade union relief committees,
the committees of the unemployed
organizations and committees from
other organizations must go on rec
ord and force the recognition of the
committees at the relief stations.

chwan, for instance, the militarists
collected the ground-rents by force

addition imposed a tax of 10000
dollars on the production of opium.
The peasants thereupon stormed the
government buildings, disarmed the
troops of the government and car
ried on the struggle in the shape
Of partisan warfare.
White Guard Lines Broken
The fighting position of the Red
Army is the following: first the Red
Army operating in the Soviet ter
ritory Of Wan-Yuan in North
Eastern Szechwan defeated the
Kuomintang troops led by Liu-
Hsiang and disarmed 10000 Kuo-
mintang soldiers. Then parts of
the Third and Fourth Kuomintang
army were routed and the districts
of Nankiang, Tunkiang, Batchun
and others in Northern Szechwan
conquered. From there the Red
Army advanced towards the south
and occupied the districts of Shhan.
Yunsan and Suiting. Further south
the Red Army broke through the
entertainments of Liu-H siang in
Kaikiang, where 100000 Kuomin-
tang soldiers we're concentrated.

Army had already increased to
10000 men. At present the Red
Army numbers 100000 men, not
counting the numerous partisan
attachments. The Soviet territory
in North East Szechwan and the
territory Of the partisan struggle
extend together to about one-fourth
Of the entire province.
Agrarian Crisis
Ever since the Soviet Revolution
penetrated this province, it devel-
oped both in extent and intensity
with special rapidity. This is due
not only to the subjective factor,
to the experiences collected in other
provinces by the Communist Party
and to fighting power acquired in
long struggles by the Fourth Red
Army. The objective factor, the
revolutionary situation, has also
long been present here: an indie
scribable agricultural crisis rsvages

working peasants and workers are

quent and the peasants are roam
ing in multitudes from locality to
locality. Banditism is very wide
spread in this province, expressing
the hopeless condition Of broad
masses.
The taxes imposed on the peasant
population of Szechwan is mon
strous, even according to Chinese
standards. In addition to the rent
due to the landowners and amount
ing to go to 80 per cent of the crop,
the peasants must pay various taxes,
contributions, military dues, etc.
The ground rent is mostly exacted
for wears in advance.

Through the recent conquest of
the districts Of Baolin, hun and
Ssnweikow the whole territory east
Of the KAHN river and north of the
Yangtze are under Soviet rule. To-
wards the south the Red Army is
advancing in the direction Of Tsun-
king, the greatest port and most
important economic and political
centre of the Szechwan province.
One may say today that the whole
front Of the Kuomintang army, con-
sisting of six divisions with a total
Of 100000 men, are retreating in dis
order and disintegrating. Liu-
Hsiang alone has lost more than
10000 men Of his forces, formerly
numbering 10000 men.
Struggle Spreads
In the districts of Natchie and
Kiangan, on the upper reaches of
the Yangtze in Southern Szechwan,
red partisan groups are fighting
with the increasing support of the
broad masses of the peasantry.
These struggles Of the Soviets have
a strong influence on the city of
Lutchow. an industrial and COM
mercial centre Of Southern SEE
chwan, on the northern bank Of
the Yangtze and on the great salt
region farther north, where more
than half million workers are en-
ployed. The spreading of the strug-
gle further south to Chang-Ling
near the frontier of Kweichow and
Yunan, has its influence on the
peasant movement in these two
provinces. If one adds to this the
operations in the west and south
west extending to the frontier Of the
province of Yunan, one finds that
the struggle has spread to nearly
the whole length of the Szechwan
frontier from the north over the
east and south, up to the west, and
that only the northwestern region
has not yet been involved.
