Thursday, February 28, 1924 ES Strike Starts in the Loop KILL RADICALS, IS DOCTRINE OF PLATOON ZEALOT Dr. Tigert Boosts For Robotizing Education Shall the platoon system of educa- tion rule in all the American schools. John F. Tigert, U. S, Commissioner of Education says it, shall and yes- terday he opened his Chicago con- ference in furtherance of this idea which appeals so much to American capitalists. Meanwhilé the Chicago teachers’ union is considering what action to take to prevent this robotizing sys- tem from being applied in Chicago. Execute Radicals. Tigert, who is spending Uncle Sam’s money to push the platoon system is perhaps the most reaction- ary commisioner of education who ever held that office. He has said that he believes in putting radicals to death, Upton Sinclair quotes him in the “Goslings” as warning San Diego school teachers against the increas- ing tendency of the public schools to delve into sociology and economics, as subjects perilously close to radi- calism. Tigert continues: There is altogether too much | preaching of these damnable doc- trines of Bolshevism, Anarchy, | Communism and Socialism, in this country today. If I had it in my power I would not only imprison, but would expatriate all advocates of these dangerous, un-American doctrines. I would even execute everyone of them—and do it joy- fully. What an “Educator” Thinks. In a speech before the Des Moines convention of the N, E. A., Dr. Tig- ert said that the vote for Debs prov- ed that 900,000 Americans were ad- vocating the abolition of all law, all constitutions, and all forms of gov- ernment, Tigert is an ardent Coolidge man. The platoon system will be further encouraged at the National Educa- tional Association’s sessions today, at_the Auditorium Theatre. Last night Dr. Tigert was toast- master at an affair at the Hotel Sherman at which addresses were made by William Wiys, superintend- ent in Gary and originator of the notorious Gary Syste which is now masquerading under tif more polite | “platoon” name, and by Dr. P.

Rumors of Bulgar Revolt Continue to Floyrish in Athens ATHENS, Feb. 27—An uncon- firmed report from the Bulgarian frontier today said Premier Zankoff, | head of the revolutionary govern- ment, has proclaimed a republic. | Troops immediately issued a counter- proclamation in favor of a Commun- ist state, the report said. (Rumors of trouble in Bulgaria and that King Boris was about to be overthrown have reached Athens per- sistently within the past few days.

The workers from the union shops went to the W.

Wills painted a heart-rending pic- ture of the sweatshop in the home, where father, mother and little child toil sorting out beads and putting them on gowns for almost nothing end forever this evil that was de- stroying the lives of the people who were sweated at home but was, by its competition, depressing the con- ditions of the factory worker. Ore demand of the stxike is for the elimination of home work, David McVey, also spoke for the Chicago federation, and the support of the general body of labor of Chi- cago was again pledged. McVey spoke at the W. Washington street halls and Jay G. ‘Brown, of the Farmer-Labor party addressed the workers at W. Randolph street. Lining up of non-union strikers into the ranks of the International Ladies’ Garment Workers was the next step on the program, following the speeches, and then shop groups were brought together separately Federation Aid Pledged. Charles Wills, of the machinists’ union, spoke, representing the Chi. eago Federation of Labor, and stirred the strikers to enthusiasm at halls in both buildings. He told them that the federation would give 100 Per Cent on the Northwest Side | PPROXIMATELY 1,500 strikers gathered in Schoenhofen Hall, 1214 N, Ashland Ave., at 10 o’clock, yesterday morning to listen to plans for the conduct of the strike, The chairman of the meeting an- nounced that every union shop on the North-west Side came out 100 per cent and the great majority of the non-union shops. The cloak makers went out to a man. Sluggers in hundreds are employed by non-union shops to prevent the pickets and organizers from appeal- ing to the employes to quit work and join in the organizing campaign. The strikers were given instruc- tions to be on the job every morning at 7 o’clock and to report again at 12 o’clock. From now on, declared the chairman, this strike is a serious matter and every striker must be willing to carry out instructions. Good Spirit on ORKERS in the west side dress and waist shops yesterday quit work and went on strike, tak- ing their place in the general strike called by the International Ladies’ Garment Workers’ Union to demand better wages, shorter shours and -dé- cent working conditions, Hurtidreds of-“workers from scores of shops went to the West Side Au- ditorium to organize themselves for the strike. The cloak makers of the west side district came out in full force to help the dress and waist workers. As soon as the workers from the shops assembled, they began to or- ganize themselves for picket duty. Mollie Alterman, in charge of pick- eting, told the strikers that this strike was not a vacation but it meant work for every striker. Pick- eting would win the strike, she said. As every worker came into the hall he or she was required to register their name and address with Philip Hauser, who is in charge of the strike on the West Side for the strike committee, HITTLER AND LUDENDORFF ON Poincare, War Lord, Leary of Teutons PARIS, Feb. 27.—Premier Ramsay MacDonald of Great Britain has sent a note to Premier Poincare, urging the necessity of renewal of arma- ment control of Germany.

J, O'Flaherty, of the editorial staff of the DAILY WORKER, spoke brief- ly, assuring them of the hearty co- operation of labor’s only English daily in the city of Chicago. “The DAILY WORKER,” he de- clared, “is always with the workers in their struggles against the bosses. Our paper will back you up in this strike, encourage you and give your side of the fight the widest publicity. On your part, there must be solidar- ity and enthusiasm, The clothing manufacturers will have the capitalist press on their side, the police and the judges, You must rely on the as- sistance of your fellow workers.” Meetings will be held in the same hall every morning until the strike is over for the strikers on the north west side. the West Side | After the workers had been reg- istered and the strikers had been assigned to picket duty, Hauser asked the cloak makers who were returning to work to go to the Perfection Dress company, 1011 Roosevelt road, and ask the workers there to come out on strike. Strike Perfection Shop. About a dozen cloak makers who were returning to their work in the neighborhood of Roosevelt road went to the Perfection shop and talked to the workers, who were go- ing out to lunch. After a little good natured chatter the girls who had been working in the shop agreed to go on strike and went to the strike headquarters and registered. The pickets who were assigned to duty went out and picketed the shops without any disorder, In the neighborhood of several of the shops young fellows of the amateur hard- guy type hung around and watched the picketing. They did not try to interfere or cause any trouble. The gallant Ludendorff is now try- ing to squirm out of his predica- ment.

CO-OPERATION Office of the Postmaster, Chicago, Illinois “An efficient postal service is de- pendent in a great degree upon close co-operation between postal workers and the public,” says First Assistant Postmaster General John H. Bartlett, in an appeal for better service. “Better mailing means improved pos- tal service, The postal service is the people’s service; it is the greatest of public utilities, reach- ing the most remote parts of the country and serving the greatest num- ber of people. A full and mutual understanding is essential. We must know the needs of the public from 4 postal viewpoint in order to supply them. The public must have the widest knowledge of the postal service and its requirements before it can extend its full co-operation. The ‘Better Mailing Week’ will serve to promote this understanding. “Complaints should never be han- dled perfunctorily,” continues Mr. Bartlett. ‘“Ascertain the patron’s trouble; correct it if you can, and if not explain to him fully. Make him a booster rather than a knocker. He will appreciate attention and cour- tesy. ‘Teach him that good postal service depends upon a complete street and number address) with the stamp in the upper right hand corner, the return address in the upper left hand corner, and the prompt deposit in the mails as soon as the letter or package is ready.” This is good, sound advice.

The illustration, curiously enough, came in the form of lawsuits started by a number of creditors against the Detroit Motion Picture Co.

Stenographers and other office girls yearning for ro- mance amidst monotonous routine work were not overlooked either, In order to cover ‘the promises with the cloak of probability, a studio was built, out of the pacer of the first sales of the stock, and prospective purchasers were invited to come to the studio and take a “camera test”. The “tested”, generally, were advised to take a course in a motion picture training school in this city. The bait proved excellent, for within a com- paratively short time approximately a half million dollars worth of stock was sold, Society women and: debu- tantes proved the best fish.
