4 ooo INDORSE MAY 1 NEW YORK MEET Restaurant Employes Will Be There NEW YORK, April 21— The na- tional organization of the Amal- gamated Food Workers’ Union has gone on record as officially indorsing the United Front May Day demon-| stration arranged under the auspices of the Workers Party, by the action taken by its general executive board. All the members of the union are asked to participate in it, and help in every way possible to make it a sucess by a general turn out of as many workers as possible. The Hotel and Restaurant Local of | the Amalgamated Food Workers’ Un- ion, will take up the question of its members participating in the demon- stration at Monday’s meeting of their local, The workers in the El Dorado Res- taurant, at their shop meeting elec- ted a committee of four to see that all the workers in their shop, who are not working on May First, join in the celebration. They also decided; to carry a banner with the name of their shop on it. Similar action to participate in the celebration has been taken by the shop meetings of many other res- taurants, which include many of the largest in the city. There is no doubt that May Day will be fittingly observed by the work- ers of New York City, by the thou- sands who will rally to the celebra- tions arranged by the Workers Party. Big Throng Hears Olgin Review Gains of Bolshevik Revolution The lecture by Moissaye Olgin on ‘What Did the Russian Revolution Give to the Workers and Peasants? brought an overflow crowd to the Workers’ Home (formerly Soviet School) last Friday night. So big was the crowd that people were standing on the stairs eager to listen to Comrade Ol- gin. Many were unable to gain ad- mittance at all for lack of standing space. After the lecture questions began to pour in from all sides. They were asking about everything, from where to get soles for shoes to how much do the commissars receive in wages. Before answering the questions Comrade Olgin made a short talk on the Novy Mir, the Russian Communist | daily. The chairman called for aid to the Novy Mir. Comrades and sym- pathizers began to bring up money to the stage. Eighty dollars were collected within a few minutes. After the lecture a group of comrades went with Comrade Olgin to a nearby rest- aurant to have a cup of tea. Thirty- five dollars were collected at this “tea party.” The next morning $185 were mailed to the Novy Mir as a result of the lecture, as there was a small admission price charged. It was noticed that one of the local white guard leaders who came to the lecture almost fainted when he saw the great crowd. A few weeks ago there came to Chicago a “white” pro- fessor to lecture. Aitho he was boost- ed by the local Russian white guard sheet, there wasn’t enough people in the hall to start the lecture and the honorable professor went home without talking at all. And here was such a crowd that they were unable to get into the hall! Yes, times have changed. People have no more res- pect for titles, not even for profes- sors. WORKERS! GO TO YOUR CLASS MOVIES!

ANGELES JOIN IN SEN MEMORIAL Levin Speaks for the Workers Party LOS ANGELES, April 21.—Three hundred Chinese assémbled last Sun- day at noon in an old Chinese theater in Los Angeles to, commemorate the death of the leader of the Chinese workers and peasants, Dr. Sun Yat Sen. There were many addresses de- livered by representatives of Japanese and Chinese organizations, following a parade thru the Chinese quarter of the city. Emanuel Levin, city organizer of the Workers Party addressed them in English in the name of the Work- ers (Communist) Party and the Com- munist International. He told them of the identity of,interests of China and the world revolutionary struggle against imperialism, of the mutual friendship of Sun. Yat Sen and the Kuomintang party which he led, with ‘the Russian, workers and peas- jants. He quoted the last words of Dr. Sun about the necessity of follow- ing in the footsteps of Soviet Russia in order to free China from imperial- ist exploitation. Comrade Levin told of the proclamation of the Comintern upon the death of Sun Yat Sen call- ing upon thé Chinese workers to con- tinue the fight that he began. There is a large group of adherents of the Kuomintang party in this city, and many sympathizers, as the Chin- ese people thruout this country have always had implicit faith in Sun Yat ary activities when he was an exile and needed their financial help to overthrow the Man¢hw'regime in 1911.

Busy Season Starting. Now that the season is about to start it is expected that the strike will soon come to a successful finish. One thing is certain that the workers will continue to fight until they gain recognition of the union, the reinstate- ment of all those fired for their ac- tivity in the shop and a minimum liy- ing wage, based on the union scale, One of the strikers who was sent by the union to work in another fac- tory in Brooklyn has already gained oyer three other sympathizers, and is ready to form another*shop nucleus in the same industry, This strike has shown to all the comrades that thru the reorganization. on the basis of shop nuclei the league will actually become the leader of the young workers’ struggle, SESE ese : SSIs; Milwaukee, Wis., April 14, 1925.
