MILK WAGON DRIVERS MEET UTTER DEFEAT Betrayed by 7 Tricky Co- Operative Head (Special to The Daily Worker) MINNEAPOLIS, Minn.—Local 471 of the Milk Wagon Drivers and Creamery Employes Union, has, just completed its negotiations with the dealers, relative to a new wage and working agreement. This union is the largest in Minne- apolis, numbering 1,000 members. It suffered a defeat all down the line in its agreement with the bosses. It is a sorry fact to record; however, it is the truth. Points Rejected by Bosses. The following demands were the proposals which the dealers rejected: (a) The closed shop. (b) Bight-hour day. (c) Straight pay with no soliciting. (ad) An increase in wages, The union pulled out of the nego- tiations one thing: A week's vacation with pay. In all. other respects, the old agreement holds, with an addition- “al year added to its duration, making it a two-year agreement instead of one, as hitherto, Elwell, the. leader of the dealers, insisted on the addiitonal year, since as he stated: “I am in a better posi- tion to fight now, than later.” As a matter of fact, this was pure bluff on his part. However, Blwell refused to pass up the opportunity that the dis- organized front of the union present- ed, to get his full pound of flesh. And he got it. The Bad Role of The Franklin. The key to the success of the union in those negotiations, was found in the role that the Franklin Co-operat- fve Creamery would play. This firm held the balance of power. Had the Franklin leaned toward the workers the demands of the workers would have been realized. The Franklin Creamery was built by the working class, as a co-operative enterprise. The union was its organ- fzer, back in 1919, after a strike that the milk wagon drivers lost. Today, it is one of the largest, if: not the largest creamery in Minneapolis. The working class responded splendidly to the Franklin, regarding it as a bul- wark in its struggle against capital- ism. Nordbye Speaks for Dealers. At the first meeting between the dealers and the union, Mr. Harold Nordbye, the manager of the Frank- lin and a member of the union, flab- bergasted the membership by acting as the official spokesman for the deal- ers. The workers confidently expected that Nordbye would be on their side, since the Franklin was a co-operative and Nordbye a member of their union, But they were disappointed, Nordbye informed the union com- mittee, speaking in the name of the dealers, that the proposed new agree- ment wha wholly unacceptable, altho the Franklin pays better wages than the rest. While a few years ago, Nordbye was led as a red, his careful tutel- under the shrewd and wily Elwell, made him a first class, class col- 6 great honors heaped upon him well, such as presiding at deal- ers’ meetings, Elwell Plants Nordbye, Elwell was fully conscious of the fact that to defeat the new agreement, the Franklin had to be split from the union. Otherwise, had the Franklin DECEMBER MEETING OF AMSTERDAM UNIONS 10 DISCUSS | UNITY PLANS AMSTERDAM, Holland, Sept. 8— At the recent meeting of the ex- ecutive of the International Feder- ation of Trade Unions (Amsterdam) at which A. A. Purcell of Great Britain was chairman, it was unan- imously decided after a short dis- cussion to adopt the proposal of the British Trades Union General Coun- cil. and to postpone the next gen- eral council meeting, which was originally fixed for October, until December. One of the items on the agenda In December will be the Amsterdam-Moscow question, The key to the whole situation was in the position that Nordbye would take; he chose class collaboration, He converted the power of a big co-op- erative into a battering ram to be used by Elwell against the working class. A co-operative playing.this kind of a game, is no different from any stand- ard capitalist affair. When Nordbye pleaded in the interest of the stock- holders, he did the very same thing that capitalists have been doing since the establishment of capitalism, and he knows it. Geo, B. Leonard Also in Picture. Elwell left no stone unturned to de- moralize the milk wagon drivers and creamery workers. At the very out- set of the negotations, Geo, B. Leon- ard, a so-called “socialist” lawyer, was called as attorney for thé Twin City Milk Producers’ .association, to duly impress the workers with the fact that their demands were unjust. He cited figures to show that the farmers were only getting $2.65 per hundred for their butter fat, when it was worth $3.40 per hundred pounds. While he did not say so openly, he insinuated that the formers would’ be glad to work under the conditions and for the wages that the workers’ got, that is to say scab in case of a strike, This is the same Geo, B, Leonard, who, as Van Lear's lawyer, laid down the legal foundation for. Van Lear’s “star” steal. It was his,“brains” that were back of that notorious steal, It is claimed by those who know Leonard from Russia, that this orig- inal name is “Abramovich” and that he is a relative-of the white guard qne. At any rate he has got very rich recently, and the organ of the steel trust, the Journal, paid him a high cofnpliment recently, for his brilliancy as a legal light. What the Journal had in mind, of course, was the manner in which Leonard uses his legal ability to Prostitute working class institutions in the interest of the Minneapolis chamber of commerce. This ig cley- erness, of a kind, A Lesson for The Union, A lesson of tremendous importance emerges out of this defeat for Local 471 of the mlik wagon! drivers. This union lacks an organized jeft wing, which could give intelligent direction to the interests.of the workers, Had such @ left wing existed, even the de- fection of the Franklin: could not de- feat the workers, First of all, under an organized left wing, with a clear cut program and a courageous leadership Nordbye would not have dared to side in with the dealers. He would have been handled properly, But above everything else, the union would possess a program, of action based upon the interests of its mem- bership. There would also exist suit able tactics and a plan of strategy to fight the bosses. And that ig every- thing, As it ts, the dealers possessed all these things in a united front a, ainst the union, The dealers won, Let the workers now learn from the bosses and establish a real solidarity, by adopting class struggle tactics, Tf you want to thoroughly un. devstand Communism—study /it.

Abroad we see everywhere the grav- est crisis in the mining industry, with *| pits closing down, miners being dis- missed wholesale, and threats of wage reductions; this is true ot France, Belgium, Germany and America. In Belgium also there is a national strike in the metal industry, while over a hundred thousand German builders are either on strike or locked-out. Turning to another side of the same picture, we note that in many coun- tries the methods of murder and ter- ror are still in full swing: in Poland, for instance, and in the Balkan coun- tries, such as Roumania and Bulgar- ia, where the Zankov murder gang continue ruthlessly to send workers, including women, to their deaths. The culminating point of this pro- cess is the development of the at- tack on Soviet Russia, led by the British government. Of this we have had a foretaste in the recent Anglo- Russian crisis, and, tho things are. now quieter it is only because our pastors and masters are not yet quite sure of their ground. ® Much Depends On Unity. If our general council’s campaigh for international trade union unity should not meet with the fullest pos- sible support at the trades union con- gress, then the road will be clear for war against Soviet Russia. It is the danger of war, together with that other great issue of which I wrote last month—the Eight-Hour Day—which literally force interna- tionalism upop us. I know that some comrades in our movement are apt to decry the attention that is now: be- ing paid to international questions. But my recent experierices in the For- est of Dean have opened my eyes to the growing healthy demand among the workers themselves for informa- tion about the international move- ment and about our brothers in Rus- sia in particular. We are in no danger, I hope, of for- getting the events in China and the lesson that they teach. Can one think without horror of little children work- ing for twelve and more hours a day, and striking to secure just one day’s rest in a fortnight? If we wish to end these horrors, and to save our- selves from being dragged down to this level, thén we cannot escape fro; internationalism. 2 No Class Collaboration. Is jt enough to rely, as some of our friends on the continent rely, on the international labor office—based’ on the co-operation of employers, work- ers and governments? Surely the answer to this is provided by the spectacle of members of the British government, pledged as it is to the I. L. O, and the Washington conven- tion, continually urging the necessity of longer hours and lower wages. There is only one solution to the problem of war, just as there is only one way to secure a universal eight- hour day that may be possible wh industry is controlled by the workers, ternational unity of the organized the overthrow of capitalism. In that UPHOLSTERERS GO ON STRIKE IN METROPOLIS (By A WORKER CORRESPONDENT) NEW YORK. (By Mail)—A general industry is on. The strike call was issued by Upholsterers’ International Union, Local 76, A, F. of L, Yesterday was the first day of the strike and workers in over twenty shops responded to the call and many more are rallying to the union call, Many shops where committees did not visit also joined in.

This crisis affects the coal indus- try above all, both on a world scale and on the national scale. At this moment, tho world population, in spite of the carnage of the war, has greatly increased since 1913, the con- sumption of coal is less than in 1913; in Burope it is mich less. Thus it is not a question of foreign competi- tion, or British coal being cut out by German coal in the ordinary sense. it is a crisis of world under-consump- tion. Dawes’ Plan a Factor, Above and beyond this, the special reasons for {the decline of British toal trade afeito'be sought in the effects of the Dawes plan and rep- arations, the growth of new countries pplying themselves (in Africa and Asia), the loss of the Russian mar- ket thru the policy of the Baldwin government, ‘the obsolete and ineffi- cient organigtion of coal capitalism in Britain. “ Since it is a world crisis it ought also to be a ¥orld struggle of the coal mners and fheir allies against the coal capitaligts and their allies, Un- fortunately, tho the conditions are ripe for this|the organization of the workers is mot yet ready. Neverthelejs, it is true to say that the Miners’ International may be ex- pected to do} moré this time than it has ever dont before. But its strength would bé doubled if the Miners’ In- ternational eration included all sections of minérs, not only the Rus- , Indians and other na- Now outside, but also those unions in every European coun- try that are/not yet within the gen- eral organization.

S the value of unity above other more petty’ considera tons, t It is significant, because at the mo ment perhaps the weakest link ir the chain of the Miners’ Internation al is the German miners’ orgazination. However, we.do not despair. We think that the German unions wil! do the best within the limits they take action along with us if we are locked out; and we in turn shall not go back until their claims have been equally ‘met. From the Russians, too, we hope for whatever support is feasible for them to give: We know their support is that of a thoroly militant trade unionism, Particularly the “Etc. Etc.” The Americans are in a more diffi- cult case.. Their conditions, forms of organization, ete., etc., differ from that in European coal fields. But we look to them to see that not a ton of coal leaves Virginia, Pennsylvania, and Illinois to help to break our strug- gle. So much for international unity. Unity at home is equally essential. | Our struggle is part of the struggle | of the whole movement. If the work- | ing class does not help the miners | up, it will go down with the miners; let there be no mistake about that. In 1921 we bore the brunt of the bur- den of the employers’ attack; we bore it alone, and from that moment till now the British working class have suffered because we were isolated and attacked alone. Now fn 1925, there comes a renew: al of the attack, and an attack on a heavier scale. Again we miners have to bear the brunt of the struggle. If this time we are left alone unsupport- ed it would be a suicidal policy for the whole working class. Learned a Lesson. But fortunately the movement ap- pears to have learnt the lesson of 1921. We have had remarkable ex- pressions of solidarity in the Work- ers’ Alliance—which is going forward rather too slowly for my ‘liking, still, so long as it be sure I do not mind its being slow. We have had also | am attitude of cordiality and a gen- | srols support voiced by the general ‘ouncil. From the Transport Workers’ Con- ference held in the latter part of july we have had the encouraging statements of Bevin, and the brave cheering words of Harry Gosling. I m sure these chaps all mean what chey say, and I hope nothing will pre- ent them putting their words into action. This year there is a real spirit of inity, but it is not the sort of spirit hat comes from fine speeches in Na- “onal Conferences moving pious re- solutions; it is a spirit of unity that springs from material need. The fact 8 we cannot afford not to have unity. | CUTTERS OF Ny Y, GIVE CHALLENGE TO SIGMANITES Demand for Debate Is Ignored NEW YORK CITY, Sept. 8—The following letter was sent to Manager Dubinsky and the executive of Local 10, International Ladies’ Garment Workers’ Union on August 19, but has never been given a reply. This challenge, flung down to the Sigman- ites in Local 10, goes straight to the point, as follows: Dear Brothers:— In view of the tact that the present gigantic strug- gle which the dress and cloakmakers we carrying on against the officials of the Joint Board is of the greatest importance to each and every mem- ber of the International; in view of the fact that the cutters also cannot be and are not remaining impartia’ in this struggle because they are seri- ously involved in it, I want to propose to Brother Dubinsky the following: Brother Dubinsky, on various oc- casions, at meetings and in state- ments for instance, has endeavored to prove that the utters are whole- heartedly supporting the action of the Joint Board. I claim that any vote taken at membership meetings in sup- Port of the action,of the Joint Board does not register the opinions and convictions of the, cutters, Proposes ‘Discussion, The fact 4s that, at all meetings only about one-third of the members present participate in the vote, There- fore, I propose that a general mem- bership meeting be called in Cooper Union or in some other Jarge hall and that we have a thoro discussion on this subject. The discussion should be carried on In the following ner; Brother Dubinsky or any other member of Lo- cal 10 whom he choose, who is supporting the a ara th pre- sent his potnt of view, an: speak- prévent action of the IS speakers. After the discussion, 1 vote should be taken by secret ballot. | A Fair Offer. If the result of the secret ballot proves that the membership of Local | 10 approves the action of the Joint Board, I herewith pledge to stop im- mediately all agitation and propagan- la against the Joint Board. Further- more, I will use all my influence to persuade and convince all other mem- bers of Local 10, who are carrying mn any agitation against the Joint | Board, to act likewise. I fe@l that this proposal would be | valled by any impartial, sober-mind- od man, a fair and logical one. Therefore, there is no reason what- soever, for your not accepting this proposal, Brother Dubinsky, and mem- bers of the Executive Board. How- ever, if this proposal is refused, then this act by itself will conclusively prove that you, Dubinsky, and mem- bers of the Executive Board, know very well and are thoroly convinced that the membership of Local 10 is higher assessments. Before the dele- gates get to the convention they are reached and swung in with the the “machine” that controls the or- | ganization. They soon forget the needs of these that toll and pay the bills, but are quick to see the needs of the official family. The increase of salary that the officers gave themselves out of the pockets of the workers and the sal- aries of the new officers that were created and the money that they spent for these conventions in the past 20 years, has more than doubled in real figures compared to what the entire rank and file of the rallroad industry has received in the past 20 years. Yes, | agree with John M. Walk- er’s write up the fakers, It is sel- dom that one has the courage to write his opinion in regard to: the rottenness of their organizational leaders. FIRED WITHOUT TRIAL OR RIGHT OF ANY APPEAL Rule or Ruin Policy of Labor Fakers ZEIGLER, Ill, Sept. 8—The dis- charge and blacklist of active mem- bers of the United Mine Workers’ Union continues at Zeigler. And the union officials do nothing to prevent it. In fact, they aid it. Company unionism would be considered radi- cal beside the kind of “unionism” Lon Fox and D-. B. Cobb, reactionary Officials of Sub-district 9, District 12, are instituting. These scoundrels have shown what they are; since the murder of the mili- tant ‘miner, Mike Sarevich, whose death at the hands of ku klux klan supporters of Cobb, is enough proof of the reaction ruling the miners’ union. In handling the Zeigler situa- tion, Cobb and Fox have gone the Bell and Zoller Coal company one bet- ter in the effort to rid Zeigler of all staunch mnion men and crush the U. M. Wyof A. into ruin. Take Company Side When the miners first walked out, Cobb, sub-district vice-president, im- mediately stepped in on the side of |the company and without right or reason deposed the local union officers of Local 992, stabbing the miners in the back who wished to maintain union conditions and get fair weights on their coal. When asked by a miner if he (Cobb) would be willing to reopen the case if the company would, Cobb's answer was, ‘Hell, no!” So the dirty work that even the operators don't wish to do, Cobb and Fox are for per- forming. That is their Policy. Now, since the mine reopened, many of the best fighters of Local 992 have been fired. In this the company has been ably assisted by Fox and Cobb. To Exterminate Militants. The latest victim is Matt Cerno- vich, who was digcharged after work- ing more than a week since the strike, Instead of allowing the case to be handled by the pit committee, and the lowal union president as provided for against the action and administration of the Joint Board. In conclusion, I want to state tha, f my proposal is ignored, I reservi he right to bring the same before th. | entire membership of Local 10, b; whatever means I can best react. them.
