_ Page Four MAX SILLINSKY’S FIGHT BACKED BY DETROIT TAILORS Militant is Strongest Candidate in Race (Special to The Daily Worker) DETROIT, June 11.—The Journey- men Tailor’s Union, Local No. has gone on record in favor of M J. Sillinsky as against other candi- dates now standing in the tion for general secre treasurer. The big fight in th U. of A. is between the Progre Sillinsky and the reactionary present regime, headed by Sweeney, who now holds} the office to which he wants to be re-elected. While Sweeney and his gang have made a personal organ out of the official union paper to slander Sillinsky, the membership thruout the whole country is favoring Sillinsky more and more. This has been helped greatly by the progressive elements organizing “Sillin for Secre clubs all over the country. Sweeney Uses Soderburg. The Sillinsky forces in Detroit claim, in a letter just issued to the union membership, that the political trick of dividing the opposition has been used by Sweeney putting up G Soderburg, an alleged “good mai from Local No. 5 of Chicago. Soder- burg’s chief claim to leadership is the fact that while he was an official of the Chicago Local, Chicago tailors fought for and got a scale of $1.00 per hour. However, it is ridiculous for Soderburg to claim credit for. this, since every tailog in Chicago and many elsewhere know that the Chicago scale was obtained in spite of Soder- burg, who twice tried to make the membership accept lower offers. Such are the facts set out in the Detroit/ Local's letter, and this is confirmed by members in Chicago. Only Sillinsky Has Program. This effort to split the vote to help Sweeney, will gain nothing, according to the Detroit tailors, whe assert that of all the candidates, only Max J. Sillinsky has a program. This pro- gram includes such definitely prog- ressive policies as amalgamation, a labor party and recognition of Soviet Russia. For this reason every mili- tant member of the J. T. U. of A. is expected to work for and vote for Sillinsky as against Sweeney, whose only claim to office is inefficiency, a great loss in membership, opposition to Soviet recognition and his vote to unseat.

The Albanian rebels are fighting what is left of the government. The -latter are making tracks for every available exit that. promises a safe asylum. Ulyss Grant Smith suggested that Albania sub- mit its problems to the League of Nations. This sounded like unwar- ranted interference in their af- fairs to the Albanians who were on the winning side so they promptly told the American envoy to. beat it. Moreover they thought it rather strange that America should con- sider the League of Nations a com- petent tribunal to pass judgment on Albanian problems in view of the fact that the United States has so far spurned the League.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., June 11.— After the recent dynamiting of a Los Angeles aqueduct, the Los An- geles police declared they knew who the culprits were, No arrests have been made, The farmers of Inyo county are be- ing blamed for the dynamiting of the aqueduct. Their friends declare that so long as the farmers are being ex- ploited there will be dynamiting. The aqueduct would have deprived the farmers of Inyo county of water for their land and thus: brought about a serious situation that would have meant the burning up of their crops. The farmers point out that they have spent $1.09% per dollar value of land in improvements, in comparison with the spending of 47% cents in Los Angeles. The outlay on improve- ments and personal property in Inyo county, expended by the farmers, amounts to $1.81 per dollar of land value. In Los Angeles it amounts to 90 cents. Los Angeles claims 25 cents on the dollar land value for rent, whereas Inyo county claims only one-half mill. Te erection of the Los Angeles aqueduct means the taking away of the water from Inyo county and util- izing it for power purposes for the capitalists of Los Angeles, The farm- ers fear that with the dropght of last year being surpassed this year, they will find all their crops burnt up and their cattle dying from lack of food, etc. The people of Inyo county have de- clared their sympathy with the farm- ers and publicly state that they will help them to defy arrest. They fur- ther declare that the farmers are jus- tified in arming themselves in. order to prevent the diverting of the wa- ters of Inyo county to Los Angeles aqueduct.

The. Fascist forces, led by Com- mendatore Zopito Valentini, Musso- lini’s chief personal representative in the United States, fought with chairs and table legs but the working class got the best of the argument and in a short time the blackshirts were picking their back sides off the pave- ment and limping away. Valentini’s attempt to capture the rebel’s “chamber of labor” was clever- ly staged. Several plausible Italians booked’ the hall.from the clerk on the story that they wanted to give a lec- ture on Italian art and culture. But the facts got out. Sunday afternoon a mass meeting of indignant Italian workers was held in the House of the Masses. It was a United Front meeting, with Communists, Syndicalists and others. Enea Sor- menti of Il Lavoratore, Romolo Bobba and Giovanni Pippan spoke. “Down with the Fascisti!” “Down with Mussolini!” “Down with the murderers of the Italian workers.” These were the sentiments shouted by the audience. That evening several hundred workers met again in the same place. They met in the same hall where several hundred people were assem- bled for the castor oil propagandist. Blackshirts Beaten. The blackshirts boiled with fury at the flannel shirts’ visit. .Valentini’s shock troops charged. The mix-up was fierce. But it was the workers’ own hall, and they got back their own. The American Fascisti who are help- ing to spend the 25,000,000 lire which the Italian government is investing in foreign propaganda this year, could not boast in their dispatches that they used a workers’ auditorium for Fascist purposes. Sent by Mussolini. Valentini recently came from Italy to take charge of the organization of the Fascisti movement in this coun- try. Under cover of patriotic nation- alistic zeal he was organizing opposi- tion to Communists in such unions as the United Mine Workers and the needle trades unions in which many Italian. workers are found. Active aid was furnished by the department of justice. According to the Gazetta Ufficiale of the Italian government, 15,000,000 lire was spent for foreign propaganda last year. This year 25,000,000 is to be spent thus by Mussolini agents. Send in that Subscription Today. PITTSBURGH, PA. DR.

Bok’s ‘“‘Peace”’ Puppet Says He’d Jump into Line Against Reds NEW YORK, June 11.—That the Bok Peace Plan is certainly not a “peace at any price” plan and in fact is only a scheme to get the United States into the league of rotten na- tions against Soviet Russia and her friends thruout the world is more than ever evident by the statement of Dr. Levermore, in a recent speech. The winner of the Bok $50,000, said: “Let me say right now, fhet-if Trotsky and his Red Army will land here, I won't need to be told to take my place. I me have jumped into it before being told.” DR.

Thursday, June 12, 1924 AVERESCU MAY BE ROUMANIA’S NEXT PREMIER King Worrying Over His Meal Ticket BUCHAREST, June 11.—It looks as if General Averescu, who led the Rou- manian armies ‘to defeat against the German Mackensen in the world war, may be the next premier of Roumanfa. The situation is somewhat similar to that which obtained in Italy when the Fascisti marched on Rome. The rulé of the Bratiano brothers is tottering and the king is said to welcome the assistance of General Averescu, who is using the same tac- tics that Mussolini used in toppling the government and securing the king’s sanction for a coup d'etat. The king of Roumania has no other choice but to accept conditions as he finds. them. As he looks around him, he finds kings few and far between and’ their heads are no more secure than their meal tickets. The once powerful monarchs of Germany, Rus- sia and 4 .stria are either under the sod or under the weather. Ferdinand will make many concessions before he will lose either his head or his pay check. His only visible means of support being his title, the king saw thou- sands of peasants marching on the capital with considerable misgivings. Genéral Averescu was their leader, No doubt the peasants had grievances which could not be solved by substi- tuting one capitalist government for another. Perhaps they meant busi- ness.. In such a case time means ev- erything. Delay and again delay. The king called Averescu into con- ference. When the general went back to the waiting peasants he counseled caution. The peasants were angry and thought they were tricked, but were mollified for the time being. The crisis is not over by any means. Send in that Subscription Today. Established 1899 JOHN B.
