URBAN LEAGUE URGES SUP- i
PORT FOR WORKER’S
BILL
- -
New York—CNA— “Negroes
should fear the Wagner Lewis
Social Insurance Bill, now pend
ing in Congress,” declared T. Ar
nold Hill, executive secretary of
the National Urban League, at the
annual dinner of the New York
Urban League.
“It leaves out agricultural and
I
domestic workers,” Mr. Hill con
tinued, “which occupations are
followed by 65 per cent of all
Negro workers. Its provisions for
State con.rol of social insurance
is another defect, because this
might tend to discriminate against
Sou hern Negroes.”
Ilill urged the Negro people to
support the Workers Unemploy
ment and social Insurance Bill,
II. . 2827, as the only measure
which will provide adequate un
employment to all workers, both
Negro and white.

The two workers members of the
Unemployment Council, were
taken to the police station and
grilled for over an hour. When
they demanded to know why they
were arrested, the detectives re
plied, “Just for curiosity.”
“Do you think Negroes are
human beings'?” a detective shout
ed at Miss Hunt.
“Of course, Negroes are human
beings,” she answered.
After the workers wrere grilled
on the prognm of the Unemploy
mnet Council, the police were
forced to release them.

THINGS ONE REMEMBERS
by R. M. Hofer
Beginning December 15, 1934, an
Oregon county ed.tor kept track of the
number of envelopes he received con
taining publicity on different subjects.
On February 1, 1935, he had 102
stamped envelopes from private firms
and 112 government franked envel
opes.
Congressman Fish recently pointed
out that the cost to the taxpayers for
the franking privilege enjoyed by pub
lic officials, governmental depart
ments, commissions, “authorities,” etc.,
had jumped from -14,000,000 to $23,
000,000 the past year.
The stamp-free messages from gov
ernmental sources, received by this
editor in six weeks, exceeded all
stamped publicity he received from all
private firms.
Franked material drained the tax
payers—stamped material maintained
the post office.
The people have learned that gov
ernment or private contracts to pay
obligations in gold can be repudiated
in the United States by Congress.
The people have seen the block re
turned to Germany, secret trials and
secret executions, with an ice cold
axe left embedded in the block to
stop the flow of blood.
MUSSOLINI CONTINUES MOB
ILIZATION AGAINST
ABYSSINIA
Rome—C.NA Special— Despi e
rumors here that Abyssinia, Ethio
pia and Italy have settled their
differences, Mussolini continues
to move new contingents of
troops into East Africa on the Ab
ssinian border .
In Somaliland ultra modern
stream line railway trains will be
used to carry 1 alian troops across
the desert to begin ruthless war
fare against the Abyssinian Negro
people. Continued troop move
men s into Abyssinia have never
been halted.
Meantime Mussolini has issued
an order preven ing any news re
leases of Iialy’s faeist war moves
unless first censored by him .
The ltailan Communist Party
has issued a call to ihe Italian
people, for joint struggle against
Mussolini’s invasion of Africa’s
last Negro independent nation.
