THE DAILY WORKER, NEW YORK, WED SDAY, Page Pike RIGHT WING FURRIERS’ CZARS 0 ANXIOUS SEAT AS Anxiety, bordering on fear, been created in both the camps of the reactionary International Fur| Workers’ Union, following the return | to work of a large number of work- | ers from the loecked-out shops. It is understood that these workers have been sent back to the shops, af- | in accordance with a} ter registering, well-defined plan of the Joint Board for meeting the attack of the Interna-| leaders | This move | on the part of the Joint Board was| and the employ-) tional and the A, F. of L. upon the furriers’ union, totally ers and unexpected, International officials who have been collaborating in their at-| tempt to smash the union are at a} loss as to just what the Joint Board has up its sleeve. The Joint Board has begun the formation of, a $100,000 fund called the “Fund for the Defense of the Union,” and its’ understood that a| leaflet is soon to go out to the fur workers urging them to build up this | fund just as quickly as possible. In the meantime, systematic mobiliza-| tion work is going on at Joint Board Headquarters. Committees of active | members are. being shaped into or- ganizations for further action against the right wing, and, those manufac- | turers who have been forcing their workers to register. Vicious Rumors. At a loss to know just what to say about the situation in the furriers’ union, the Jewish “Forward,” organ of the right wing officials, has start- ed rumors—printed them toa—stat- ing that Ben Gold, manager of the Joint Board has been visiting shops proposing that the manufacturers re- duce the pay of the workers in re- turn for their support of the Joint Board. This is an old, moss-covered lie, quite familiar to the workers, and especially ridiculous in this instance since wages in the fur trade are 36% higher now than they ever were be- fore the left wing came into power. The “Forward” even quoted one em- ployer, head of B. Geller & Sons, as saying that Gold had visited him. When this man was questioned by his workers and told, “You know Gold was néver here; why did you say he was?” the boss replied, “well in this fight, anything’ is permissible—even deliberate lying.” No doubt the real reason for cir- culating these stories of visits from Gold is to divert the attention of the workers from the fact that the |¢ “NATURAL FOODS” Sundried Fruits, Honey, Nuts, _ Brown Rice, Whole Wheat, Mac- aroni, Spaghetti, Noodles, Nut Butters, Swedish Bread, Maple Syrup, Tea and Coffee Substi- tutes, Innerclean, Kneipp Teas.

A resolution calling for amalgama- {tion of the needle trades, and asking that the capmakers’ International be instructed to call all Joint Boards and Locals together to bring about amal- gamation, was defeated by the con- vention.

Yesterday morning’s session open- jed with the presentation of the of- ficers’ report, in which the chief ar- |ticle of controversy was a section |condemning Local 42 for disregard- | was jing the constitution of the union, and| | for failure to cooperate with other) | locals, especially in the formation of \@ Joint Board. Local 42 defended its actions, and T setatiated by introducing a resolution | condemning the officers for putting | into their report the part referring to | ; Local 42. The convention accepted | the officers’ report’ as it was pre-/ sented; then the committee on this re- port endeavored to smooth matters over by softening the condemnation statements. According to M. Golden, a right wing delegate, “Local, 42 is the most abused local in the union, except Lo- cal 7 was condemned by Golden group for running a successful strike. For Sacco and Vanzetti. Last night’s session of the con- vention, after refusing to censure the A. F, of L. for expulsion of the Fur- riers’ Joint Board, and to demand re- instatement, went on record “for im- mediate release of Sacco and Vanzetti and for all political prisoners.” The convention refused to pass a resolution asking for the formation of a labor party to include “all poli- tical, labor and economic organiza- tions”; but adopted an amendment to the labor party resolution pledging support of a party which the General Executive Board of the union “shall see fit to support.” A report on union organization work from H.

But the wretched little old man is living a frightful life in which fear looms large during night and day. For at last he realizes, if he did not from the start, that he is sending two innocent men to the electric chair in the biggest case ever handled by Massachusetts judge. Malignant Psychosis. Stubborn, utterly biased the reds, caught ineluctably grip of his class hates, Thayer has struggled against the eonsciousness {of his guilt with a fury which has resulted in a malignant psychosis. That psychosis, the result of a men- tal frustration, is wrecking the old man’s mind, just as his body has been | wrecked in the p: The conscious ® against in the own 1 guilt coupled with a knawing fear that the “reds will get him” is proving, the! judge’s undoing. For bombs, stilet- tos and their reputed vengeance. Under Constant Guard. Around every corner lurks a “red” intent on his life. Although guarded every minute of the night and day by State police, Thayer, cannot escape that delusion—indeed, the presence of the police as an ever-constant re- minder, inflames his tottering rea- | son. See Inferiority Complex. | Psychologists here who have found |in Judge Thayer one of the best ex- amples in abnormal psychology in their experience, also traced a de- cided “inferiority complex” in the old man’s actions. Having taken an utterly wrong stand on the case from the start, this little man has not had the courage to admit his mistake. And the older} the case gets, and the bigger, the! |more impossible it is for Thayer to admit his tremendous error. Truth to tell, a country town law- yer whom even Worcester, his home town, did not know well when he was elevated to the bench, Thayer has never been big enough to fill the su- perior court job he holds. All the while he has had to put on a bluff, a pose, that he is really the sort of |man qualified to hold down a second line judicial job in Massachusetts. Menta! Collision. But his own inferiority has con- |stantly denied his qualifications for the job. His pose has set up a men- tal contradiction which the Sacco- Vanzetti case has pried wide open. And when two opposing forces of great power contend in a man’s mind, psychologists will tell you, a collision is #ound to result. The collision has resulted in Web- ster Thayer’s troubled little mind. It has just about wrecked him. A few more months, and Thayer will not dare face the bench.
