July 12. —(FP)— New effort is being made to break the strike of 16,000 textile workers here. A so-called citizens’ committee of 300 has been organized. It is composed largely. of local business men, and others who are close to the mill own- ers or who are susceptible to the flat- tery of Colonel Johnson of the Botany Mills, They held their initial meeting July 6 and bitterly assailed Albert Weis- bord, the Harvard law school graduate who is leading the strike. Spokesmen for the “citizens’. committee” charac- terized Weisbord and his associates as “harpies preying on the peaceful, decent community of Passaic,” and de- nounced them as Communists opposed to American institutions. Bosses Say “Not Bona Fide.” «Now the committee is publishing big display advertisements in the lo- cal papers, calling on the strikers to Tetura to work; declaring the United Front Committee is not a bona fide labor organization; and asserting that the committee of 300 are “friends of the workers” and have their interests at heart. In answer, the United Front Com- mittee points out that the strike has ‘been prolonged into its 24th week not ‘by the workers, but by the manufac- turers, who have refused to discuss the matters at issue with representa- tives of the strikers. The Textile Worker, organ of the United Textile Workers, the only A. F. of L, union in the industry, con- times to publish large display ad- vertisements of the three firms on strike, Forstmann and Huffmann, Bo- tany Mills, and Gera Mills. But it publishes no news about the strike. Commenting on this, the Nation says: “That looks like accepting pay for treason.” And the Nation says also: “When the executive council of the American Federation of Labor denounced the Passaic strike because there were Communists among its leaders it committed treason to labor in the name of official labor loyalty.” Farmer “Independent Democrat.” SPRINGFIELD, UL, July 12—James H. Kirby, a farmer of Petersburg, to- day filed notice with Secretary of State Emmerson that he will be a candidate for the United State senate at the ane coming election next November.

The disaster was caused, according to all reports thus far, by a bolt of lightning and adverse wind conditions, and) this, they said, can only be classed in the category of “acts of God.” Heavy damage was done in ten towns in Bergen, Morris and Passaic counties, The Replogle Steel com- pany, near Mt. Hope, was damaged to about $200,000. General Keeps at Safe Distance. General Drum, after inspecting the plateau of the reservation from the safety of Picatinny peak, an adjoin- ing height, said: “It’s like a stene from the western front. It looks like ground that has been fought over. All vegetation has been swept away.” The loss of life still remains a con- jecture. Many of the refuges are be- Meved to have fled to the woods in their haste to get away from the peril, Hell of TNT, “We went thru hell Saturday night —that is the only word that describes it,” said an officer’s wife. Sergeant John P. Nicholson said he was hurled 20 feet in the air and wounded in the back by shrapnel. “Shells were bursting all around, . I was weak from loss of blood but, ran for the woods. The wooden barracks, row on row of them, caved in like tis- sue paper after the first blast of the TNT as I was running for my life.” ey 8 German Admiral Sympathetic. BERLIN, July 12,—Admiral Zenker, head of the German navy, sent the fol- lowing message to secretary of the navy, Wilbur, at Washington: “Please accept the deepest sym- pathy of the German navy over the terrible disaster ag Lake Denmark.” The dead were all found in the vicinity of an administration building known as “C-31.” The first body dis- covered lay on the road, with a shattered telephone pole ,dcross the head. The rest lay near 4 demolished shack, No formal attempt was made to identify the dead on the scene of the disaster, altho some were recognized by former comrades. Many of the bodies were burned beyond casual re- cognition. Shortly after the searching party got under way the explosions were coming at the rate of one every five to ten minutes. One blast knocked a marine unconscious and several of his companions turned complete somer- saults. The June issue of the American Worker Correspondent Is out! Passaic Strikers Reply to A. F. of L. (Continued from page 1) the A. F. of L. cannot find good reasons for objecting to our demands. These are the vital issues in this strike. Around these issues we, 16,000 textile workers, have rallied, and are carrying on a heroic and determined struggle against the powerful employ- ers for a better stanflard of living and for trade union organization. Struggle Wins Support. Our heroic struggle has won the sympathy and support of organized workers all over the country and of @ large number of central trades and labor bodies and local unions affiliated with the American Federation of La- bor. ‘We have been able to take care of the needs of our sixteen thousands strikers and their families during the 24 weeks of struggle, thru the gener- ohs support of workers’ organizations and sympathizers. Six picket line ; lunch counters operate to provide food ' for the thousands who daily picket the | many acres of textile mills in Passaic. + Four food stations function to capacity | in distributing to needy families their | daily food rations. Two children’s kitchens provide nutritious meals for more than one thousand of under- nourished textile strikers’ children. Hundreds of our children are being sent to camps and to the homes of | sympathizers. The strikers receive ' free fuel and free services of physi- | clans. A total of 445 strikers have | been clubbed and jailed and for these competent legal defense has been | provided and their families cared for. ‘There is no form of relief of which the textile strikers are in need that has ‘not been provided. Now, after six months of struggle, the need for relief becomes a more serious problem for more and mere strikers’ families are applying for relief, It is at this stage of our struggle that the organized la- bor movement of America should stand staunchly by us instead of lend- ing discouragement or ill-advised eriticism. To prevent continuous support and relief for the strikers and their famil- fes would amount to starving these workers back into the mills at the , bosses’ terms. The statement issued by Mr. Henry I’. Hilfers, secretary of the New Jersey State Federation of ‘Labor, which spread unfounded and destructive rumors that the Passaic workers have been defeated by scab- herding textile bosses calls for an im- mediate repudiation by you since such | unfounded statements operate to cut | off relief so necessary to the winning | of the strike, We do not see it fit or | necessary to enter into any lengthy discussion relative to the false charge + id committee of the United Textile Work- organized labor movement. come all.” tile Workers of Passaic and vicinity hails this stat Leontained in your statement that the|@ promi Passaic strike of nearly six months is a Communist strike, or “a strike for Communism.” In a recent public statement you, yourself, declared that the demands of the Passaic textile strikers were just demands. No worker will take this charge seriously or place trust in those who continue to make it. The country-wide support given to the Passaic strikers and their leaders by hundreds of working-men of all political beliefs and affiliations, and the help given by church groups which not even the blackest open-shoppers have yet dared to call “Communists” show that this allegation is ground- less. Show It Is Bona-fide Strike. Lawyers, journalists, United States senators and prominent churchmen, together with many labor unions and union officials affiliated with the A. F. of L. have endorsed the aims and pur- poses of the strike. Our strike is a bona fide one and the struggle is ; wholly in line with the best traditions of the American labor movement. The committee conducting this strike, the United Front Committee, is charged with being a dual union. We have always indicated our readi- ness to affillate with the A, F. of L. It is a matter of public record that on our own initiative, we addressed ourselves to you as the president of the A. F. of L. to bring about the unity of all textile unions under the A. F. of L. and our committee pledged itself to render every assistance to bring our workers under the banner of your organization. Our unsolicited approach to you was evaded and we were referred to Mr. Thomas F. McMahon, the president of the United Textile Workers of Amer- ica, Negotiations were entered into by our United Front Committee with the United Textile Workers. A com- mittee was elected by the committee conducting the strike to meet with a ers to enter into arrangements for complete affiliation, These negotia- tions were blocked by the action of Mr. McMahon, president of the United Textile Workers, who declared that until the strike was ended, no action along these lines could be taken. We find in your statement the fol- lowing: “The working people of America can raise their standard of life and living, whether it be those employed in the textile industry or in any other lines of industry, by Joining the bona-fide, We wel- The United Front Committee of Tex- ent as a portent and ie name of the 16,000 a a et Re tO Se PROGRESSIVES WIN VICTORY IN GARMENT LOCAL Reactionaries Lose Their Stronghold In the elections in Local 18 of the International Ladies’ Garment Work- ers’ Union the progressives won a majority of the executive board, The following progressives were elected: H, Bell, for recording secret- ary.

We have no quarrel with the great body of organ- ized labor as represented by the A. F. of L. Our quarrel is with our employ- ers, We greet the ideal of unity of all labor in America under the banner of the A. F. of L. and herewith pub- licly repeat our offer to enter into negotiations with the United Textile Workers and the A. F. of L. for the complete affiliation of 16,000 textile workers in Passaic and vicinity. And to this end, we propose that you ap- point a special subcommittee of the executive council of the A. F. of L. to arrange for an immediate confer- ence between the United ‘Textile Workers of Passaic and vicinity, which is recognized by the strikers as their strike committee and bona- fide spokesmen. The Cause of Ail Labor. The cause of the 16,000 strikers is the cause of all organized labor. The victory of these textile workers will pave the way not only for better con- ditions, but also for better organiza- tion of the workers in the textile in- dustry. The statement of the exegu- tive council of the A. F. of L, is there- fore not only injurious and detri- mental to the strike but to the A. F, of L, itself because it paves the way for the enemies of organized labor to initiate campaigns of wage cutting and speeding-up and the supplanting of bona-fide unions by company un- ions, organized by the employers. We hope that the executive council after investigating all the facts will reconsider its statement and will take a position more in harmony with the needs of the great masses of the. un- organized workers, and that with re- spect to the Passalg strike, it will cease its hostile attitude and will make a strong appeal to all workers to redouble their efforts for moral and material support. In closing, we wish to reiterate our statement that everything done by our committee in connection with the Passaic strike has been open and above board, All our transactions are open to the scrutiny of all bona-fide organiaztions, Hope For Better Relations. We trust that this letter will pave the way toward more cordial relations ang a better understanding between the executive council of the American Federation of Labor and the United Front Committee, representing the striking textile workers of Passaic and vicinity.

The lady informed @ group of passengers that Pilsudski Was a socialist and therefore a Bol- shevik. I observed that Pilsudski was in the habit of exhibiting his love for Bolshevism in mysterious ways. Did he not lead the Polish army against the Soviet forces during the war be- tween Russia and Poland in 1921? This was easy. Without batting an eye, she replied that, Pilsudski.. plan was to lead his army into the heart of Russia and then deliver it to the Bolsheviks.

For a number of weeks she has been praying for the garment workers. Last week when she visited the jail she sought to find out whether her prayers had any response in the girls. She asked Freida Reicher, leader of the jailed strikers, whether her pray- ing had done her any good and whether she felt repentant for her sins which led her to jail. Fear Reprisals, Frieda Reicher told her that if she were sure the garment workers would not be punished they would be per- fectly willing to give their opinion of the prayers. Mrs, Smith assured them that she would see to it that the girls would not be punished and urged them to ex- press themselves frankly. Frieda de- clared that as far as\ she was con- cerned she did not bélieve it a sin to go to jail for fighfing for better conditions and that pi ‘8 would not help workers in get! better condt- tions nor in fighting their battles with the bosses.

Mrs, Cleslakiewlcg, able to speck but little English, told Mrs. Smith to go away and let her talk to her boys and instead of praying to convince the warden to allow her two sick children to see their mother, Fought for Conditions, “Why did they take me away from my children? It is because I fought for better conditions. We are here not because we sinned, but because we fought for better conditions,” declared Cleslakiewicz. Mrs. Smith unable to understand Cieslaki@wicz asked Florence Corn to act as interpreter, Florence did. Mrs. Smith became angry and started to shout at the girls at the top of her lungs. After she left the jail the ma- tron scolded the girls for talking in such a manner to a millionatre’s wife.

In the same spirit that the capt- talist tyranny wars on workers at home, it is repeating today on the other side of the earth what Gov- ernor-General William Howard Taft, later president, and now chief jus- tice of the United States supreme court, wrote in 1904 of the Moros in the Philippines when he said: “General Wood sent out expedi- tions to march along the shores of the lake (Lanao Lake), which were immediately attacked; and, there- upon, assuming the aggressive, he reduced several of their cottas and gave them a salutary and much- needed lesson.” aa), dh 2 There have been many traction strikes in New York City before. But the workers are again on the battle line. Similarly the armies led by “Black Jack” Pershing, who later headed the American army of inter- vention that was sent into Mextco; General Harrison Grey, Otis, wno became editor of the infamous Los Angeles Times; General Leonard Wood, who led the army against the workers during the steel strike in 1919, were not able wo develop into a reality what General Georges W. Davis declared when he said, “What Spain was not able to do in 350 years (in the Philippines) American troops have done in a few months.” That proud boast was made more than a score of years ago. But the Moros are still on the warpath, + 2s It is the Mohammedan Moro that the American rubber interests are trying to enslave and bring under the yoke of “Firestone,” “Goodyear,” “Goodrich,” and otner tnternation- ally known American trade names.

The court of arbitration has been only recently curtailed in its powers by limiting its jurisdiction only to disputes between capitalists and labor organizations, It has hitherto had the power to judge cases wherein damages were asked by workers individually, The strike of rail men on the Isth- mus, pan-American and Vera Cruz and Isthmus lines is reported to have been beaten, the Mexican Federation of La- bor (C. R. O, M.) sending its men in as strikebreakers and further accent- uating the bitterness between the fed- eration and the railwaymen’s union which has been independent of the federation, The loss of the strike in the south has discouraged a strike on the Mex- ican railway, The railwaymen’s union, usually alleged to be “red” is far from being 80, according to observers, who say it is more conservative than the C.

It was General Davis who wrote hypocritically of the Moros: “They are able to produce rice, sugar cane, coffee, corn, cattle, beau- tiful woven fabrics and thrusting and cutting weapons; they manufac- ture bronze cannon and gunpowder and give surprising proofs of their ingenuity and industry. Their boats are fashioned and rigged and sailed with the utmost skill and are ad- mired by all strangers. A race of men who are doing all this, and who possess manly qualities, should be kept alive and not shot down in war,” Those were pious utterances made ‘by Gerferal Davis after the whole- sale slaughter of the Moros had brought them to their knees witn the defeat of the Filipino republic under Aguinaldo. They will be put aside now as new military units, dedicated to the mass murder of these American colonials in the orient are led against the Moros by recognized experts in the art of wholesale slaughter. **. @& The “Interhoro” has its “company union” in New York city. Amert- can imperialism also has its “com- pany union” in the Moro Islands, in the existence of so-called “Christian peasants,” who can be used as a buffer against the rebellious Moham- medans. Thus the dollar again seeks to plant its power in the rich soil of religious differences. The Moro was assured by his for- eign master from North America, who had taken the place of the Spanish tyrant from Europe, that he would not be subjugated to any native Christian administration as long as the stars and stripes were planted over the islands. But he lived to learn that this was only some American buncombe, the blah of the advance agent of great busi- ness. Christianity was being used, just as much as an army of invasion to enslave him to profit rule.

Representative Wm. S. Vare, the rotund “boss” of.

By so doing, they ‘believe, he will assure the election of a democratic senator from Penn- sylvania for the first time in many decades. Vare’s election would be followed by an attempt to unseat him. Demo- cratic leaders have privately asserted that “Vare never will be seated.” The insurgent republicans feel the same way about it. Several of the latter, including Senator Norris, republican of Nebraska, have already openly en- dorsed Wilson’s candidacy, Newberry’s Shadow. Most of Gov. Pinchot’s friends here, whose counsel he has sought, have advised him against ‘becoming a can- didate.

All of these forms of struggle are not now actively at work. But some of them, like the workers en- gaged in the New York traction strike and the discontent of the Moros in the Philippines, are exam- ples of the never-ending struggle against American imperialism that will ultimately encompass its com- plete defeat and destruction, UNIONS DEMAND NEW TRIAL FOR SACCO, VANZETTI Local 269 of the Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America adopted a resolution demanding a new trial be given Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti, oe, ae Waterproof Workers.
