| THE DAILY WORKER, NEW YORK, WEDNES DAY MAY 16, 1928) Break Up Meeting for Mine Relief in Brooklyn; Hand of Right Wing Seen HALT CONCERT TO AID COAL DIGGERS Labor and F; ' Labor and Fraternal | | Organizations | Entertainment for Miners’ Relief. ‘rhe Uthman Saengerchor is giv & a ‘Solidarity Entertainment and Dance’ |for the benefit of the striking miners on Saturday, May 19, at 8 p. m. at the Charge A: ee of ‘li Was's New York Labor Temple, 243 B. 84th Behind Action A mass meeting and concert ar- ranged by the Women’s Committee} on Miners Relief was broken up Mon- day evening by the owners of the| Brooklyn Labor Lyceum, 947 locals under right wing control. First a poster meeting was removed. When the owner was questioned about its .re- moval he claimed to know nothing about. it. The right wing A. F. of L. officials, no doubt, used their influ- ence to see-to it that the meeting for miners relief should not be held. When the miners, who were to ad- dress the meeting, came to the hall, they were ordered out and told that miners were not welcome. The man- ager of the Lyceum stood at the door and as the people came told them he knew nothing about the meeting for miners relief and that no meeting would be held there that night. An indignation meeting of the women, who comprised the majority of the audience, was held outside the meeting place. “We are not surprised at. this treatment,” said Pauline Rogers, scc- retary of the Women’s Committee on Miners’ Relief. “This is only one more proof of the fact that the right wing labor bureaucracy not only does not join in the struggles of the workers, but as in this case, actually hinders the work which is being done by workers to help the miners in their bitter fight against inhuman condi- tions and union-smashing.” COOPERATIVES 10.
