E,aGuardia's Relief Cut

IN ONE month the New York Depart
! ment of Public Welfare dropped II 1923
families, nearly $4,000 persons, off the
relief rolls. On the same day that this
announcement is made Mayor LaGuardia
has the effrontery to declare that a new
normally" has been reached in the ma
tion's economic life, and that private vel
fare agencies must adjust themselves ''to
fill the gaps" in Roosevelt's Social Secur-
ity program.
Even if the Roosevelt work relief pro-
gram is put into effect completely, it will
provide jobs for not more than one out of
five of the present unemployed at slave
wages. Absolutely no provision is made to
give them unemployment insurance. The
Wagner-Lewis Bill, in fact, is direct at
tack upon the living standards of the
masses by forcing them to bear the full
brunt Of the expense.

Workers and Production

PRODUCTION for December was at II
4 compared with "a in November, rising
somewhat, contrary to the usual seasonal
decline, reports the Federal Reserve
Board.
Does this mean that the crisis is being
overcome? Not at all! The fact remains
that building construction and commercial
loans, two key figures, show no let-up in
the crisis
The rise in steel is definitely connected
with the boom in war preparations. AS
for the auto increase, this figure only shows
auto production. But who will buy all
these new autos? Already stocks are pill
ing up again.
These boom" figures are for popular
consumption. But in the New York Times
Current History" George Soule liberal
economist, must confess that that increase
in production under Roosevelt has taken
place at the expense of the living stand
ards of the working class.
Capitalist profits doubled under Roose-
welt. How? BY permitting the employers
to chisel more work out of each indivi-
dual worker, Soule reports. Labor costs
per unit Of output were reduced" he re-
ports.
Added to this, Roosevelt helped the
employers to rob the workers by raising
prices and the cost of living, The Federal
Reserve Report admits guardedly that
retail prices increased considerably in
December
Stains analysis of the course of the
crisis is confirmed. The employers are
increasing production somewhat. But only
by robbing the workers But all their acts
can not overcome the crisis of capitalism,
but rather deepen it.

The Steel Conference

THE statement of William Spang, Pitts
l burgh district president of the Anal
gamated Association of Iron, Steel and
Tin Workers CA. F. of L), printed in this
issue of the Daily Worker, exposes the
fred scare" of the A. AS reactionary presi->
dent, Mike Tighe.
Spang clearly shows that the national
conference of A. A. lodges, to be held in
Pittsburgh February 3, with the partici-
patton of mine and aluminium locals is not
a "dual" or illegal conference.
Just the opposite: The February con-
ference called in accord with the consti-
ton of the union, aims to put into effect
q fight for the economic demands drawn
up by the 59th convention of the union.
Mike Tighe, raises the red scare and
shouts that the conference of February 3
is illegal" because he is attempting to
override the will of the membership of the
locals Like a car, he tries to stifle trade
union democracy, and prevent the union
from strike action for their just economic
demands.
As Spang points out, the locals will
not fall for Tighe's splitting "red scare"
but will come to Pittsburgh February 3,
determined that the union membership
shall fight Tighe's ruinous policy of reli-
ance on the employers and on the Steel
Labor Board.

tions against the injunction and in sup
port of the strike. Send them to Judge
Humphreys, in Kings County Court, to
Mayor LaGuardia and Governor Lehman.

Babies in the News

QABIES are very much in the news these
II days in the boss press. That is to say,
more accurately, the dead Lindbergh baby
and the baby of the two missionaries, Mr..
and Mrs. STAN, slain in China. The STAN
baby was saved"
We need not go into the fact that the
STAINS were most probably slain by Kuo-
mintang forces, as proved by the admis-
sion of the American missionaries in
Tungjen, Kweichow province, that the Red
Army passed them by unmolested while
Chang Kai-shek's forces looted and pill
LACED their church. What hurt them is that
after performing anti-Red deeds their
allies betrayed them.
But not a word is said about the tens
of thousands of workers and peasants
babies killed by imperialist and Kuomin-
tang-imposed famine in China Not a
word about the children blown to bits by
American bombs dropped from planes sent
to Chang Kai-shek And what little con-
Germ the boss press shows about the 10000
babies who died of malaria in Ceylon in the
last month because the British slave
holders do not find it profitable to ship
quinine to to the native masses gripped by
an epidemic.

Communists Heirs OF

New York, N. Y.
Comrade Editor
Allow me to offer congratulations
on the amazing and continuous i'm
provement noticeable in the Daily
Worker.
Especially gratifying is it to find
that you have decided to make
greater use of the American revo-
lutionary tradition, as evidenced by
the quotation from Lincoln. This
will have a good effect. 1 would
suggest that such quotation be
run for about two weeks straight.
Then another. American literature,
political and otherwise, is replete
with this spirit. These quotations
ought perhaps, to be run daily,
alongside of others of more inter
national significance by Marx and
Lenin,
Let's make more use of revolu-
tionary traditions. BY doing so we
cut off the sprouting fascist cliques
from their only source of theological
nutriment, and this without yield
ing an iota of the Marxist-Leninist
principles upon which our move
ment is firmly based. L. S.

Old Age

AN OLD woman lies dead in the Phia-
n delphia morgue
She was found frozen to death. Her
husband lay beside her, life almost gone.
In their bare rooms were found three
sacks of coal, bought with relief tickets.
But, the mighty capitalist government,
with its glittering armies and navies, its
marble halls and it's machine guns, had
forgotten to provide them with stove.
Roosevelt talks of "old age pensions"
He promises them-in 1898!
Meanwhile bitter winter takes it's toll
of suffering and death in the novels and
shacks of the working class.

Halls Feature Page
As Country's Best
Bronx, N. Y

Br0nX, N. Y.
Dear Editor:
I wish to congratulate you for the
enormous advance you have made
in your paper the last few months.
1t now not only gives the truth, but
presents it in an attractive form
that should, and does, draw honest
workers and intellectuals closer to
the revolutionary movement.
The feature page especially has
been improved. I know that in my
case, it is the most absorbing and
interesting page in any American
newspaper Mike Gold gives the
tremendous emotional impact of the
revolutionary movement. The story
or poem usually found there, if not
excellent technically or artistically,
moves one with its sincerity and
truth. The theoretical column clari-
fies many knotty problems, and
David Ramsey presents science
notes as they ought to be presented.
Not hypocritically condescending to
teach the Ignorant" masses, he of
fers information in a lucid and in
teresting form that surpasses any
analysis in a popular bourgeois pub
lication.
AS for Del and Little Lefty, I can
only exclaim, Wonderful" Little
Lefty is truly a great lovable char
acter whom every worker knows.
What he and Peanuts and Patsy
and Uncle John do brings me to
realize the Importance of cartoons.
Little Lefty is surely combating
successfully the venomous propa-
ganda of the bourgeois press.
What you have done, therefore, is
of the greatest Importance to the
revolutionary movement. To have
a press that will at all times ex-
pose the treachery of the capitalists
and their governments and that will
lead the workers to higher levels of
struggles, means that we have the
machinery for battle.
When we will have a Soviet
America, an America free from ex-
ploitation and hatred, beautiful and
beloved, we will point to the Daily
Worker as the instrument by which
Leninism was spread and brought
to the attention of millions of the
exploited. D. B.

Party Lite

Winning a Strike
Philadelphia Self Criticism
Recruiting in Harlem
I WOULD like to relate some
1 thing that recently hap
pened in a Philadelphia meat
and grocery store where I
deal. There are about fifteen
workers employed in this
store. Whenever l go to the
store I always take Daily Workers
and Young Workers with me. By
doing so I was able to sell the Daily
Worker as often as four times a
week and the workers knew that I
was a Communist. They would ask
me questions and I would answer.
Then I would ask them questions
and one Of these questions was how
many hours a week do YOU workP
The answer was so. How much
money do you make a week? The
answer was $500. When I asked
them if they thought they were
being treated right, they said no. I
wanted to know why they didn't 90
out on strike for shorter hours and
more wages. So they did. They
went on strike without notifying us
and they were on strike one day
before we knew of it. We found
out when went to the store to buy.
saw the picket line there and
Joined with the picketers. They
had the picket line out on the edge
OF the sidewalk so that people could
walk between them and the store
and the people wouldn't know what
it was all about. When I got there
told them how to make a real
picket line by picketing directly in
front of the store instead Of near
the curb. When we did this the
boss came out and said IVY don't
you fellows Go as I told you" So
then I said, I'VE are not picketing
the street, we are picketing your
store and we are going to continue
to picket your store. And we don't
care what happens so you might as
well get used to it," So then he
called the police.
When the police got there they
came straight to me and asked me
whether I ever worked in this
store. And they said if I don't
get away from here I would
be locked up. The police were not
able to arrest me because the work
ers supported me- The workers adj
mitted to me that they didn't know
how to conduct their strike and I
promised to stay there until the
strike was won. The strike was over
five days after I got on the picket
line. All of the demands we're won.
Through the strike in this shop,
there is a possibility of drawing
five workers into the Party, and five
young workers into the Y. C. L.
would like all Party members TO
follow this example of personally
joining with the workers in their
local struggles and thereby gaining
influence among them. BY doing
this we will be able to protect our
selves from the brutality of the
bosses and the police.

Average Worker Will
Never Get Pension
New York, N. Y.

New York, N. Y.
Comrade Editor
The editorial who Gets the
Balance?" in the Monday the 21st
issue of the Daily Worker, very
clearly showed the fraud of the so
cial insurance that the New Deal
administration has concocted with
the wholehearted approval of the
ultra conformist misleaders of the
Socialist Party and the servile, high
paid bureaucrats of the A. F. of L.
The big capitalist life insurance
companies use for their calculations
of risks, among others, the "Meech's
Tables of Mortality" According to
these tables the average length Of
life in the U. S. A, of man 81
years old is 4025 years. That is to
say, if one takes any large number
of men who are 81 years old, the
average age that most of them will
reach would be 61A years.
But that average does not mean
Cnat one man out OF every twenty
five, nor even one out of every fifty,
but most likely one our of every
eighty or a hundred will reach that
calculated average age. Moreover,
the life insurance companies have
based their estimates of the span of
life almost exclusively from statistics
of people living in comfortable cir
cumstances. The majority of the
working people, laborers and low
paid clerks, whose physical energies
are exhausted at terrific pace,
producing wealth for the capitalists
can hardly be expected to live as
long as the well-to-do people. Thus
the difficulty of attaining the age
Of IS set by the Wagner-Lewis Bill
deliberately makes 1t impossible fol-

clerks of the nation ever to receive

lation. 1t should be defeated by 9
