{ | TO AWARD BANNER’ AT BIG DANCE AT | WORKERS’ CENTER J Affair Will Wind Up Campaign “Who will win the red, revolution- ary banner?” This question will be answered on Saturday evening at the concert and dance to be held at the Workers Cen- ter, 26-28 Union Square. The banner, which has been on dis- play at the Centcr for the past few weeks, has been, the object of much heated competition among the units of the. Workers (Communist) Party throughout District 2, It will be awarded to the unit that collects the oBreatest amount of money in the drive for $30,000 to establish the Workers Center. Since it will be a permanent trophy of this historic drive, many > units are eagerly contending for the banner. Sections 1 and 5 contain the units which thus far seem to have the best chance to win the banner, though there are a number of units in other sections that promise to give them a good fight during the few days that remain until Saturday evening, when the drive comes to an end. The award of the banner will be made by William W. Weinstone, district organizer of the Workers Party and secretary of the board of directors of the Center. Saturday is also the last day for the turning in of Workers Center col- lection lists. All lists, whether filled or unfilled, must be returned on or before that day, it is announced, Affair Winds Up Drive The affair on Saturday night has been arranged as a celebration of the actual acquisition of the Workers Cen- ter and will mark the wind-up of the drive. The evening will open with an interesting musical program, which is expected to be concluded about 10 o’clock. Among the artists who will take part are L. Newell, harpist and soloist with the Capitol Theatre Sym- family, consisting of N. Nazaroff, noted Russian baritone, and his two gifted children. Following the concert there will be dancing for everyone until the small hours of the morning.

FRY TO BUY OFF § RADIUM SUITS Trial Set for June 8 After Long Delay Efforts on the part of representa- tives of the United States Radium Corporation to buy off the five plain- tiffs in their suit for an aggregate of 1,250,000 for their doomed lives were continued yesterday when it be- gan to appear impossible to bh pone the case under the New Jersey | | statute of limitations. The trial of the suits of the five women, haub, . Grace Fryer, Quinta Me- Donald and Edna Hussman, was to- day set for day, June 8, in the Suprer ‘ourt Circuit .in Newark. The date was set after it was seen that the wrangling on the part of the defense counsels, who wanted to postpone the trial until they could secure their own “radium experts” from the west, would continue in- definitely. HOLD CLOAK SHOP MEET SATURDAY Unionization Drive To Be Launched (Continued from page one) industry, formerly a stronghold of unionism, is almost completely open shop due to the war on the member- ship carried on by the socialist right wing officialdom of the International, the bosses and the police. Representatives from hundreds of open shops, as well as chairmen from the few union shops left will parti- cipate in the drive to regain good working conditions in the trade. * * * Hyman Gives Statement “The bosses saw clearly that their rapidly losing ground and that the cloakmakers’ offensive to rid the trade of pogrom leaders was rapidly gain- ing momentum. They therefore granted the 40*hour week on paper, so that Sigman could use the public- ity to throw dust in the eyes of the workers.” This was the statement | made yesterday by Louis Hyman, chairman of the N. O. C, ‘after the ht, wing Jewish Daily Forward tri- announced that Sigman had succeeded in obtaining the bosses’ statemer “Sigman and the Forward try to nake it appear to be a great victory gained by Sigman’s prowess,” said } Hyman, “The 40-hour week was to go into effect on June 1, actdrding to the agreement won by the bitter | struggles of 1926, thereby voiding even a paper victory for Sigman.” He continued, “Secondly, and most im- portant is the fact that the employers do not intend to allow the 40-hour | week anyway.” All Comrades meet at Eatwell Vegetarian Restaurant 78—2nd Ave., near 5th St., N. ¥.

May 29,— Six prisoners, on the framed-up charge of killing a fellow prisoner, George Baker, in Thanksgiving Day riots at Folsom Prison last year, were found ‘guilty last night, with the ver- dict carrying the death penalty for all. This latest action of the authori- ties is a result of a revolt last No- vember of the prisoners in Folsom Pri on against the horrible conditions ng there.

FUR BOSS YIELDS TO JOINT BOARD Strike Defeated Right Wing Treachery (Continued from page one) then told their workers to register in the Joint Council. Instead of doing this the workers walked ,out and went to the Joint Board headquarters. After a shop meeting there, a strike was declared. After. a two-day tie-up the bosses were compelled to withdraw from membership in the Associated Fur Manufacturers, and again sign up with the Joint Board. This is one of the most decisive victories to be gained by the fur! \workers in. mony months of bitter | struggle. . Its .effect on the market, | where the workers gather, was elect-| trical. The victory gained against the McGrady-Stetsky gangs was the sole topic of conversation. Especially sig- nificant is this settlement because of | its being an open test of strength. For two days the right. wing had mobilized all its followers and ma- chine men to provide seabs for the struck firms. They met with com- plete failure in these attempts. Patronize LERMAN BROS.
