Against the capitalist offensive. The reformist trade union bureau- cracy has shamelessly betrayed the struggling workers. Instead of utiliz- ing the united front of the dockers and shipyard workers for strength- ening the position of the militant workers and for leading them to #ic- the reformist Judases did everything to split the fighting front by separating and isolating the dock- ers from the shipyard workers. The reformist trade union bureau- crats have accepted an arbitration de- cision which Virtually abolishes the 8- hour day for all dock workers. They have treacherously proclaimed this decision “a ~splendid victory,” and have-actually advised the dockers to abandon their fighting brothers of the shipyards, thus enabling the brutal and greedy capitalists to defeat the shipyard workers the more easily and to subject them to their unhampered dictatorship. _, But the militant dockers and ship- yard workers have rejected this treacherous advice of the reformist lackeys of the Bourgeoisie, and have refused to accept the a: ation de- cision. The solid united front of the dockers and shipyard workers is in- tact. Comrades and Fellow Workers! |Seaman of All Countries! If the German shipping barons suc- ced in depriving the German workers of the 8-hour day, it is absolutely certain that your own exploiters, un- der the pretext of German cut-throat competition, will proceed to lengthen your own working hours and to re- duce your wages. This You Must Prevent! The German dockers and shipyard workers are fighting~not only for their own, but for your interests as well. Their victory is therefore your victory; their defeat—your own defeat. Therefore «practice the fullest. solidarity with the German dockers and shipyard workers: No seaman ‘should perform black- leg work in German ports! No German ship, and no ship from any other capitalist country is to be laden or discharged in Germ: The crews of all fore ie committees in support of the strikers! See to it that the offiicers of your ship give no aid to German strike- breakers loading or discharging any ship! See to it that no ship is repaired in German ports! See to it that no ship leaves Ger- man ports for repairs in foreign ports! Comrades! Seaman of all countries! In all capitalist countries the shipping barons are determined to lengthen the working hours and to reduce the wages of the dockers and shipyard workers. The shipping companies thruout the world have united in an international offensive against the very existence of the shipping slaves, You must offer resistance! You too, must unite internationally and create a solid international front against your av oy tn enemy! | If you do this, - |victory is inevitably yours! Long live the fighting solidarity of the German Dockers and Shipyard Workers! Long live the Solidarity of the Seamen of All Countries!

LIMA, Peru.—The miseries of the workers in the Peruvian sugar fields driven to their tasks by the slave driver’s whip are likely to be dupli- ented soon in the rubber fields, Miles Poindexter, lame duck U.

(Staff Correspondentt of The Federated Press) CHARLESTON, W. Va., April 11. —Have you ever wondered just why there are so many coal miners killed in our coal mines every year? Hard- ly a month of this year has gone by without its mine tragedy with many lives lost. Last year there were 2,452 coal diggers killed in the mines, according to the U. S. bureau of mines and there were many more times that number crippled. The reason for this staggering death list can be seen in the follow- ing want ad now running in a Charleston (W. Va.) newspaper: WANTED — Experienced Mine Foreman. Married Man to live on property. MUST BE ABLE TO PRODUCE LARGE TONNAGE AT LOW COST. Mine located in eastern Tenne |. New o} trified, ul 1,500 to 2,000 tons daily. Permanent connection for proper man. ONLY MAN WHO CAN PRODUCE RESULTS NEED AP- PLY. There you have it in a nutshell. “Large Tonnage at Low Cost.” It costs money to sprinkle explosive dust or to employ sufficient gas in- spectors. or a. timber gang large enough to timber dangerous tops. But. the boss who keeps the “perma- net connection” is the man that keeps the production costs down and the tonnage up. And when the inevitable happens the coal company isn’t out anything. Insurance. companies take care of damages to blow-up mines ard they settle for the dead coal diggers That is, they pay the survivors the meager compensation award if they haven't been able to beat them out of it at court.
