ARCH FOR WOMENS LIES Seacock The fairest solution to unemployment is to divide up the available work with no loss in pay. Make it city policy to cut the workweek to 30 hours with 40 hours pay.
Strict affirmative action programs—with quotas—to end job discrimination against women, Blacks, Latinos, and Asian people. Comparable pay for women workers must be city policy in word and deed.
Job training for youth at union-scale wages.
San Francisco must stay a union town. No building permits for contractors who run "two-gate" jobs (one entrance for union workers, one for non-union).
Stop the union busting practice of "contracting out" of city services to non-union labor. All city work must be done by union labor. • Stop the use of city courts and police to break strikes or restrict the democratic rights of workers on strike to picket.
Oppose the Gann initiative Proposition 61—and all attacks on public workers.
End discrimination against immigrant and undocumented workers. Vote No! on Proposition 63, the racist "English-only" ballot initiative, which would eliminate the multi-language ballot and harm bilingual education particularly for Latinos and Asians.
Oppose Proposition 54, the California bond issue for new prisons. Prisons are no solution to California's problems. Full employment is.
San Francisco must live up to its claim to being a "sanctuary city." Stop all harass -ment of foreign-born workers regardless of documentation.
Stop the union busting practice of "contracting out" of city services to non-union labor. All city work must be done by union labor.
Soclalist Action/Tina Name Address Phone (415) 821-0458 San Francisco is world headquarters for many giant corporations and banks. It is a world center of wealth and power. This wealth should be fairly taxed to pay for the services which are the rights of working people.
Of course San Fancisco is part of a country whose giant federal budget is spent on war preparations and a nuclear arsenal capable of eliminating human life and destroying the earth's atmosphere and its ecology. The city should add its official voice to the movements of protest that cry out for Peace, Jobs and Justice, Not War!
The increasing U. S. intervention in Central America, including the hundreds of millions of our tax dollars spent there to arm dictators and the CIA-run war against the government and people of Nicaragua, is against the interests of the American people.

In order to win such a program, working people need to organize a political party of their own. And it must be outside of the two parties of the ruling rich—the Democrats and the Republicans. We need a labor party, based on the strength of working people through their organi -zations—the labor unions.
It's foolish to fight the boss for better conditions on the job and then turn around and vote for the bosses' political parties to run the government. A wořkers' political party should and can run the government in the interests of working people.
This is what the campaign of Sylvia Weinstein is all about. Weinstein is a socialist. She is a member of Socialist Action, an organization that campaigns for these ideas and works hard in movements for social change to bring them about. A vote for her is a vote of protest against government by and for the rich and for a government by and for the working people.
