Menday, April 7, 1924 GARMENT STRIKE CAN'T BE BROKEN BY INJUNCTIONS Labor Delegates Hear Story of Struggle. (Continued from Page 1) out unmolested. We have found, also, that some of the women scabs are related to union men. We are pre- paring a list of the names of union ™men whose mothers, wives and sisters are acting as scabs, and we are going to urge the unions to ‘expose these people and get their relatives out of the shops.” The Citizens’ Committee appointed at the suggestion of Mayor Dever, resigned because the employers: re- fused to act with them in any way to settle the strike, Johannsen reported, “The union officials agreed to confer with the bosses,” said Johannsen, “but out of 138 letters sent to the bosses asking them to confer, con- ciliate, arbitrate, or in some way to co-operate to settle the strike, all but five ignored the Citizens’ Committee, and the five who answered unquali- fiedly refused to confer.” Johannsen Makes A Break. Speaking of the personnel of the Citizens’ committee, Johannsen brought a laugh from the delegates by saying “There were a couple of labor delegates on the committee who were more or less unimportant.” No effort has been made by the “Committee of 15” to get the strike situation or the police brutality on the floor of the city council, altho it was pointed out that this could easily be done thru Oscar Nelson. Mother Jones again called on the strikers to defy the injunction, “You don’t need a lawyer,” she said, “Re- fuse to pay the bonds and go to jail. Fill up their jails, and they'll have to let you out. I never call a judge ‘His Honor.’ Most of the judges haven’t got any honor.” Nelson Finally Blushes. “The great trouble in these strug- gles is the officials of labor them- selves do not take advantage of the yychological time and then strike the Liew. Don’t pay for a lawyer. I never paid for a lawyer; I prefer to defend myself. I wouldn’t pay a law- yer to save his neck.” This brought a roar of laughter, as the delegates looked pointedly at the reddening Oscar Nelson. Railroad An Adjournment. Friends of Len Small railroaded a motion to adjourn thru the Chicago Federation of Labor meeting yester- day while the delegates were still reporting in order to choke off criti- cism against John Fitzpatricl, E. N. Nockels and Harry Scheck. The sentiment of the delegates seemed to be bye? ined ‘these Farmer-Labor Party members in throwing over independent politi- cal action in favor of participation in old party politics. Fitzpatrick, in the chair, decided that the motion to adjourn—made a little after 4 o’clock—had been car- ried. A roar of protest went up at his decision and he declared himself in doubt. On a standing vote, tho it looked to many present as tho the motion had been decisively de- feated, Fitzpatrick declared the meeting adjourned. Fitzpatrick was in an embarrass- ing position due to his violation ct use abe ia igs Party a y_ entering the Tuesgay primary fight, His friends have been denving all week that these three Farmer- Labor Party members had lined up for the corrupt Len Small. At the Federation meeting today, hewever, the March 2th Illinois State Feder- ation of Labor weekly news letter ‘was passed around and on the front page was a statqment signed by Fitzpatrick, Nockels, Schecx and others definitely advising trade unionists to vote for Small, He was Wi forced to railroad the motion to ad- fourn thru the meeting rather than Deeeeoel We todepeutos "paid le} action of labor. ms IMPEACH COOLIDGE!

John Fitzpatrick, president of the Federation, seconded “Mother” Jones cry with a strong appeal: Res “When one labor organization is mon cause of all and settle it then and there!” Girls Doing the Fighting. “This fight is not alone that of the few girls that are struck over here,” Fitzpatrick continued. “They’re mak- ing a fight for the whole trade union movement of Chicago. They’re not afraid of the situation. They’re do- ing the fighting!” f True enough, Brother Fitzpatrick, and what is the Chicago Federation of Labor doing to back the girls up in this fight, the Federation’s own fight? “The Committee of Fifteen” has picked a few feathers of the Crowe in| | the state’s attorney’s office and made a few remarks to Mayor Dever, three weeks ago, on the matter of police brutalities. The uniformed and plain- clothes sluggers continue their rough dealirig with girl pickets. Mayor Dever promised the “Com- mittee of Fifteen” that if witnesses of brutalities were produced, as promised, thet the officers would be brought up on charges and dismiss- ed from the police force. So far NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE, The “Committee of Fifteen” has made no further report to the Mayor. The Citizens’ Committee also re- ported to’ Mayor Dever and then disbanded.

Do the women of Chicago, the Women’s Trade Union League, need an engraved invitation to help their sisters in the garment: strike? Do the women of Chicago need a special request to demonstrate their active sympathy Is that why they, too, have failed to join the picket lines of the striking ladies’ garment workers? President Fitzpatrick himself has said that the garment workers are fighting for the whole tabor move- ment of Chicago. It is evident that Dudley Taylor and his cohorts in the Employers’ Association are backing the Dress Manafacturers’ Association in another battle of the war of Chicago big business against unionism, against LABOR. Why doesn’t the Federation of Labor send its auxiliaries irto the fight they have acclaimed their own? “Mother” Jones Never Afraid. Women of Chicago, women of the Trade Union League, will you stand and see the garment bosses crush the girl workers, your sisters, with an INJUNCTION? Are you afraid to go to jail? “Mcther” Jone has never been afraid. Those garment strikers are not afraid. Women of the Trade Union League, if you let the opportunity slip, you will be confronted with in- junctions whenever you are called out to fight for better life. Women of the Trade Union League, will you accept the issue? ill you recognize your fight? Will you sage gh rest sharing the cause e —strikin; ment workers? Ae Strike Will Go On. You have heard the international vice-president, Perlstein, say that the strike will continue. If it cannot be settled soon, it will have to drag on for months thru the slack sea- son.

(Special to The Daily Worker) ROME, April 6.—The Italian gen- eral election that was held today for a new chamber of deputies may look like a great joke to the average American, but not so to Premier) Mussolini and his fascist followers. First of all, the new Italian elec- toral law was devised to allow the fascists to remain in power whether the country wanted it or not and in order to achieve this extraordinary result, the law provides that any party polling 25 per cent, or one- fourth of the votes actually cast, will elect two-thirds of the deputies | composing the Italian chamber of | cake or 856, out of a total of Tn practice the law works this way: The country is divided into fifteen electoral districts, and the tickets are | divided into two main categories, namely, national, or majority, tickets, and districtual, or minority, tickets. | The former are the tickets which on! polling 25 per cent of the votes will elect a majority of 356 deputies; the second are only after the whole or part of the 179 remaining seats, and which the law allots to the minority, which may or may not be opposition. « Sewing It Up. A national or majority ticket must be presented in all the fifteen consti- tuencies or electoral districts; the | minority tickets must be presented | in at least two districts. In each dis- trict the majority tidkets will carry | a number of candidates equal to two- | thirds of the deputies the district | elects, owing to its population. The! minority or districtual tickets must have no’ more then one-third of ‘the For example: Suppose majority tickets will carry 20 names and the minority tickets 10. Further- more, while the votes of majority tickets are counted “nationally,” the votes of the minority tickets are counted only in relation to the ats- tricts in order to allow each district to have one-third of its deputies in the chamber. To exemplify: A ma- jority ticket may or may not get 25 per cent of the votes in one, two, three or more districts; but if the total of the votes polled by the same ticket in all the districts is equal to 25 per cent or more of the votes cast, it elects two-thirds of deputies in “all” the districts. A minority ticket will elect its one-third of deputies, regardless of the number of votes it receives. Each Has Emblem. Naturally, there can be more than one majority ticket and many minor- ity tickets. But only the majority ticket polling the largest number of votes above the 25 per cent required by the law, elects 356 candidates, while the rest of the majority and minority tickets will divide among themselves the seats allotted to the minority in proportion to the votes which each ticket receives. The majority tickets are each dis- tinguished by a party emblem and so are the minority tickets. The emblem is the same for all the districts in Should no majority ticket secure votes cast, then the. electoral pro- into play and each ticket, for the family of Jacob Dolla.

UNION SMASHED AS VANCOUVER STRIKE FAILS ‘Bosses Want City To Pay Finks By SYDNEY WARREN. (Staff Correspondent of The Federated Press) VANCOUVER, B. C., April 6,— The Vancouver Shipping federation admits it spent $100,000 to break the recent longshoremen’s strike in this port and now is asking the city coun- cil of Vancouver to reimburse it for maintaining a patrol boat at $85 a day during the strike. The federation in refusing to ac- cede to the union’s demand for the restoration of the bonus of handling lumber cargoes, stated it was unable to do so because of the poor returns from shipping generally. The union’s spokesmen ppinted out by compara- tive figures the growth of shipping in the port and the rise in freight rates. One phase of the increased port movements from Vancouver is shown in the announcement that the grain handling capacities of . both dock and elevators, estimated at 8,500,000 bushels a month will be overtaxed by the middle of April. Accidents Increasing. Since the breaking of the strike, waterfront workers have been speed- ed up to the maximum without re- gard to life or limb. Nymerous ac- cidents have occurred and the news- papers have ceased reporting the minor ones. The shipping bosses maintain a blacklist of some 400 ac- tive union workers. All longshore- men are now hired thru the com- pany’s “Fink” hall. The shipping bosses have informed the government employment bureau that they will not not hire men thru the bureau un- less they subsequently pass thru the company’s own bureau for identifi- cation. The old organization of the long- shoremen here, known as the Inter- national Longshoremen’s _Associa- tion, has disbanded and in its place are two other organizations that the attempting to form the nucleus of an- other union.

POWDER KINGS’ PAID LOBBYISTS BLOCK REAL QUIZ Nixon Disaster Report Shocks Public (By The Federated Press) , TRENTON, N, J., April 6.—There is a sequel to the tardy. revelations contained in the state department of labor that “gross negligence and vio- lation of the law” by the company caused the March 8th explosion at the Nixon plant of the Ammonite Co, when 78 workers were killed and 200 injured. In Preparing new protective legis- lation demanded by State Labor Commissioner McBride’s repoft, it has discovered that the explosive manufacturers not only maintain an active lobby to prevent reform but actually write most of the present ineffective law regulating themselves. “Reasonable Regulations.” The manufacturers’ committee in 1909 drew up “reasonable” regula- tions which were later written into the law. Distances of safety between buildings were fixed much below the regulations in England and other countries. The definition of “exp\- sive” was left elastic and full of loopholes for the manufacturers. Risk to life and limb were not con- sidered as serious unless some inte.’ gral portion of a building was dam- aged. Only one inspection a year is re- quired by the law written by the ‘manufacturers, and the maximum license fee is $25 annually. In New Jersey 100,000 pounds of explosives may be kept within 1,835 feet of in- habited buildings, while in England the required distance is. 5,200 feet, almost a mile. Public sentiment, after accepting the company’s alibi for the Nixon explosion, has been roused by these revelations and the belated grand jury has been called to fix responsi- bility. The owners’ lobby is ap- parently strong enough to prevent the calling of a special session of the state legislature to enact a new law. German Editors May Be Severely Punished If Caught Thinking By LOUIS LOCHNER, (Staff Correspondent of The Federated Press) BERLIN, April 6.—An editor has no business to have opinions running counter to those of the newspaper owner, in the opinion of the News- paper Publishers’ Association of Ger- many. Alarmed at the rumor that the National Press federation was contemplating the introduction of a bill in the reichstag by which some independence of thought was to be guaranteed editors and writers, the publishers made clear their stand- point in the Zeitungsverlag, official organ of their association. The editorial is arrogant in the extreme, as will be seen from the fol- lowing quotations from it: “It: can- not be admitted under any circum- stances that the editor be considered anything but the legally appointed representative of the publisher. The editor has no connection with the paper by virtue of any rights of, his own; all rights are derived from the publisher. The editor is under no obligations on his own account to safeguard the public interest; his only duty is that of editing the pa- per or the section of the paper as- signed to him according to orders from his publisher.” Detroit Labor in Protest Over Ford’s ' Muscle Shoals Lease (By The Federated Press) DETROIT, Avett 6, — Charging that “the Muscle Shoals lease is looked upon by those who know, as a bigger grab than Teapot Dome,” the Detroit Federation of Labor has sent a resolution to the two Michi- gan senators calling on them to “do all in their power to prevent the con- summation of this deal to transfer government property to a private cor- poration.” The huge government power and nitrate plant in Alabama is referred to.

The political power of the unions must be entirely destroyed. “2, The government must cease to negotiate directly with the trade unions. “3. The eight-hour day law must be repealed. “4. A single front of trade unions in industria] decisions must be pro- hibited. “5. Obligatory governmental ar- bitration’ in labor disputes over wages must be restricted, “6. The return of all economic machinery, beginning with the state railroads, to private hands must be undertaken. “7, As the necessity of repara- tions payments will compel trans- formations of German production, the internal markets must be pre- vented from falling into the hands of foreign competitors by the crea- tion of new and the raising of existing customs duties. “German industry is willing t make sacrifices for the welfare of th reich, but only on the basis of thes conditions.

Ex-Chancellor Wirth’s fulfillment policy was right in principle but failed because he pursued the wrong internal policy. German industry and agriculture can support the fulfillment policy only on the basis of certain premises. “Here I would like to say that we do not wish to eliminate the German government. The negotiations with France must indeed be carried on by the two governments, but the German government must work in the closest touch with expert committees of in- dustrial organizations.” The Communists. have already is- sued a leaflet'on the meeting of the industrialists in which they point out that not only is a reduction of wages, destruction of legal safeguards of the workers and a lengthening of hours demand but that the industrialists also insist upon a new tariff that will allow them to set their own prices upon domestic commodities.
