4 Hl { i Page Four Workers The Role By V. V. DART. HERE is in our ranks a wide- spread lack of understanding as to the role of the trade unions in the evelopment of the working class, and of the role of our party in rela- ‘ion to trade union work. The present campaign of the party to get the members into the unions, brings these problems again to the fore where they should be examined and explained so that the most effec- tive results might be obtained. Praotically every union (exceptions, blue sky or paper locals, formed by bureaucrats to increase their repre- sentation) was formed in the first place to serve the interests of the workers who composed it. They were formed preparatory to or during struggles agaimst the bosses~ and serve as the basic class instruments for promoting, the economic welfare of their members. The fact that the unions do not always serve the in- terests of the working class is due to several causes. The main ones are the low state of cl onsciousness of the members; the boss-inculcated ideology of accepting the capitalist system as permanent; and the dis- couraged militant, who, ing to get sufficient class activity out of the membership, became disheartened COUPON-CLIPPERS REAP ENORMOUS PROFITS; WORKERS TOIL LONG HOURS FOR By LELAND OLDS, Federated Press. The Mahoning coal railroad pays yearly 100% cash dividends. Mahoning is leased and operated by the New York Central which pays the owners 40% of the gross earnings as rent. The courts have ruled that the lessee must also pay the income and excess profits taxes, giving the owners a clear 40%. The road operates about 70 miles of track serving the steel district around + Youngstown, Ohio. Mahoning’s lowest dividends since 1912 were 50 per cent a year from 1915 to 1919. In the last 10 years it has paid altogether $12,600,000 in cash on $1,500,000 of common stock, an average of 84 per cent a year. The average for the last six years has been over 106 per cent. Profit in Hosiery. Three magnates in the silk hosiery field report combined 1925 profits of $4,782,961. The striking feature of their reports is the exorbitant return on investment. » The $2,165,769 profit of the Gotham Silk Hosiery Co. is more than 50 per cent of the entire value of the land, machinery and other equipment. Aft- er deducting 7 per cent dividends on preferred stock it leaves $1,791,269 for the common stock which was ap- parently distributed as a bonus. On the books this common stock is worth about $168,775 so that the profit ap- pears to have been at least 1,000 per cent. The stockholders of Phoenix Hos- fiery Co. have nothing to kick’ about. The year’s profit of $1,558,742 means a return of $7.22 a share after all de- ductions including preferred #livi- dends. As the par value of the com- mon stock is $5 this means a return of 144 per cent. Last comes Onyx Hosiery with a 1925 profit of $1,058,450, which gives the common stockholders $5.18 a share. These shares are listed as no par but the company’s balance sheet carries them at $10 a share so that the year’s profit amounts to about 52 per cent. Such profits reflect the exploitation of workers whose wages average under $19 a week. ee or Commercialized Amusement. That commercialized amusement is another source of big profits appears in the 1925 report of the Orpheum Circuit Corp. Its net income of $2, 174,820 gives common stockholders $3.03 a share after payment of pre- ferred dividends. As the par value of the stock is $1 this means a pro- fit of 303 per cent. The 1924 profit amounted to $4.30 a share or 430 per cent making the 2-year total 733 per cent on the investment in common stock, Cash dividends in 1925 totaled bout 179 per cent. In the last five yéars common stockholders have re- ceived cash dividends totaling $2,630- 311 on a par value of $549,170 or ap- proximately 480 per cent. +854 Foundry Makes Fat Dividends. This week's clue to why home own- ing comes high is the 1925 report of the U. S. Cast Iron Pipe & Foundry Co. This company’s net profit of $5,- 501,265 means for the common stock- holders a return of $38.84 on each $100. The 1924 profit amounted to $43.17 on each $100 share. The last two years combined have given the owners of this building material con- cern approximately 82 per cent on their investment. “The unions are the pillars of the workers’ power.”—Losovsky.

Some dual unions were formed by such elements and have merely served to keep work- ers fighting among themselves when all efforts should have been directed against the bosses. Class Consciousness Unions. Our comrades should not act upon the theory that the unions were creat- ed by god in order to provide a fat longing’ to a basic working class or- ganization, It should be evident to all that a revolution cannot be successful with- out the assistance of the great mass- es of workers participating in the struggle. Those who are organized and know the value of united action on the economic field are the ones who will respond most effectively in such a situation. We must have the unions on our side but we'll never get them by tele- pathy. The place to speak to them is Develops in on the floor of the union, If we de- monstrate our ability to clarify the issues that come before the union for consideration and help plan a con- structive policy for thé union, our gains will be enormous. It may be difficult to re-educate the oldtimer who has grown pessimistic but the general membership can be mide to respond to the logical un- toldment of class struggle idéas. Every member has work awaiting him in the union, real mass work which holds promise of very great gains to the party in strength, num- bers and prestige. The crying need of the unions today is for constructive leadership anu since one must have been active in union work for quite a period of time in.order to be able to exert much influence there is no time to waste.

The beginnings of class conscious- ness are present in every worker who voluntarily joins a union in or- der to better his conditions of exist- ence, At that time he is usually mili- tant and is ready for the next lesson in class solidarity. If there are no others there to teach him this lesson, who can blame him if 2e soon sours and fails to keep up his interest. Any comradé who remains outside the union, fails to learn the primary lesson of class consciousness and the average unionist can be excused for looking sceptically uon such a repre- sentative of the vanguard who has learned so much that he appears to have forgotten the necessity for be- STARVATION WAGE | SOVIET UNION PLANS A LARGE INCREASE IN PRODUCTION OF COTTON (Special to The Daily Worker) MOSCOW, U.S. S.

This standing insult to the nearby community was revealed to the DAILY WORKER today as a result of the ex- perience of a young group who were denied service at Feuer’s restaurant, Indiana avenue and 31st street, Sun- day night because one of their number was a Negro. The group, which included Lydia Beydell, Elsa Bloch, Sam Hammers- mark, Manuel Gomez and Haywood Hall (colored), entered the restaurant following Sunday night’s Trumbull mass meeting at Metropolitan Com- munity Center. They were imme- diately informed that if they wanted to be waited upon they would have to go elsewhere, Do Not Serve Negroes. “We do not serve Negroes,” the waiter said bluntly. “Of course, if you insist,” he added, “I suppose we shall have to give you some service.” The group did not insist, but took its patronage elsewhere.

LABOR ‘LEADER’ DISILLUSIONED BY JOHN D.JR, Rockefeller Failsto Help Strikers! NEW YORK, March 17) — Despite John D. Rockefeller Jr.’s;denial that his family controls the Western Mary- lana railroad, “the road’s reports show that these (Rockefeller)! holdings are more than two to oheygreater than any other stockholder’s;’sasserts W. A., Paddock, assistant grand chief Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, in charge of the strike of engineers and firemen on the Maryland line. “The interstate commerce commis- sion’s Nickel Plate decision shows how concentrated minority holdings may easily constitute cofitrol.” The strike is still going strong, re- gardless of contrary press implica- tions, declares Paddock, The men who struck Oct. 15 for wages and con- dition? granted by every other class 1 railroad “have every intention of re- maining on strike until their just de- mands are met.” The two brother- hoods are fully supporting the NEW YORK, March 17—On Sunday morning, March 18, Morris Sigman, president of the International Ladies Garment Workers Union gave a lec- ture on the “Last Three Years of Union Work” under the auspices of an anarchist group at Bronx Lyceum, Third aVenue and 170th street, Bronx. The anarchist paper, The Road to Freedom, has been coming out with ar- ‘icles knocking the present adminis- tration of the joint board and uphold- ing President Sigmen of the Interna- tional. They have been branding the present administration as Communist and saying that the present adminis- tration receives all orders pertaining to union work from “Chicago.” Sigman Holds Caucus. The lecture was scheduled to be held at 10:30 in the morning but when that hour arrived there was no sign of Sigman on the platform. Sigman was holding a meeting with his hench- men Feinberg and Sossloff in the hall. When I came into the hall Feinberg began speaking to me, He was surpris- ed,to see me at this lecture. I then noticed Sigman wave to Feinberg and he slipped away from me. I watched him and saw Sossloff, Feinberg and Sigman go into an anteroom. Sigman saw that most of the people present were left wingers who were arguing with the anarchist supporters of Sig- man, At 11:15 Sigman appeared on the platform. The chairman of the meeting was Farber. He declared that the meeting was called under the auspices of the anarchist group and that the topic for the lecture was to be, “Last Three Years of Work in the International Ladies Garment Workers Union,” and that on this occasion it was “no.more than right” to have Morris Sigman, the president of the international give this lecture. After spending close to two hours ou the most horrible and silliest lec- ture ever given by a president of the union, he closed with the remark that all the Jeft elements in the“union must be wiped out because they receive their “orders” from “Chicago.” Fears Rank and File. Questions were then declared in order, A question was sent to Sigman on a piece of paper. He read the question and tore up the paper saying that the person asking the question was not a member of the international, and he would not answer the question. One of the international members was given the floor and he asked Sig- man why he was lecturing before an anarchist group when, he, himself ex- pelled members of the International Ladies Garment Workers Union for being members of the Trade Union Educational League. Sigman avoided an answer, Must. See “Abe.” Sigman was unable to answer the questions put to him by the left wing- ers without first consulting Abe Cahn of the Forward and when the chair- man of the meeting saw Sigman in this predicament, he closed the meeting, stating that Sigman would answer all of the questions the following Sunday.

Organizer Admits Bankruptcy of Reactionary Policy DENVER, Colo., March 17—“The American Federation of Labor must be rehabilitated,” was the burden of a speech delivered before the Denver Trades Assembly by T. Conboy, gen- eral organizer of the American Federa- tion of Labor who is speaking in the state of Colorado wherever the mov- ing picture, “Labor's Reward” is be- ing shown, He said that during the past six years a deflation Wed set in and that the membership had been reduced from four million to less than three million, He stated that the American Federation of Labor is putting on an organization campaign in many of the large cities like Detroit, Cleveland, Philadelphia, Buffalo, New York, Chi- cago and St. Louis. He deplored the situation in the labor movement in the St. Louis district, especially where he has been assigned, for he sald a leth- argy exists besides the many jurisdic. tional fights that are being carried on, He urged the delegates to put on a rehabilitation campaign in Denver, A delegate from the Chauffeurs Union asked Mr, Conboy if he knew of any plan or way to remedy the condi- tions of lethargy and jurisdictional dis- putes existing in the American Fed: eration of Labor, especially in the St. Louis district. One could hear a pin drop as Mr, Conboy arose and very solemnly admitted that he knew of no plan or remedy for existing conditions, The chairman seeing the predica- ment the speaker was in immediately came to his assistance and announced that the assembly thanked Mr, Con- boy for his splendid speceh and that the meeting would stand adjourned, Thus has a “mighty” organizer of the American Federation of Labor ad- mitted the bankruptcy of the reaction- ary policy. a vores Sa Put a copy of the DATLY WORKER in. your pocket when Service on the line has been badly crippled. The communities affected are wholly behind the ‘strikers, so much so that President Maxwell C.

In replying. to Cumberland Mayor Thomas W. Koon, Johir-D.

Poor Labor Leader 'Surprised. Paddock states that? Rockefeller’s attitude is “a surprise and disappoint- ment” to men of the brotherhoods and those of the Maryland communities who appealed to the multi«nillionaire “to help relieve a situation from which they are suffering keenly. It may well appear to them that here is an evasion of an obvious responsi- bility,” says Paddock. “Granted that the Rockefeller interests are not tech- nically ‘controlling,’ the fact remains that while the management of this Toad may deceive, it will never defy the expression of a wish by Mr, Rocke- feller.” Select Committee to Pass Upon Bids for Muscle Shoals (Special to The Daily Worker) WASHINGTON, March 17—Follow- ing the approval by the senate of minor amendments to, the.
