THE DAILY WORKER, NEW Y UK, MON Y, JULY 80, 1928, Page Five NEW COMMITTEE OF N.Y. WORKERS WILL AID MINERS Many Trades Attend Big Meeting At a conference for miners’ relief held Thursday evening at Bryant) Hall, the 120 delegates present, | }among which were cloakmakers, }leather goods workers, and food | | dceeueners: furriers, milliners, | workers, formed a permanent shop committee for miners’ relief, com- posed of an executive committee of | 24 elected out of the conference. | The, first steps of the new com- mittee will be the taking of weekly shop collections for the purchase of food, medical aid and the supply- ing of defense funds for the strik- | ing miners and their families, many | of whom are lying in jail on various trumped-up charges. Besides the) collections from among all the work- ers in each shop, the delegates | | JFesent volunteered to tax them-| | ;Plves a certain amount of their! yeekly wages for relief and de- fense work. Resolutions were unanimously adopted pledging full support to the miners in their formation of a new union and condemning the sell-out of the corrupt Lewis machine. Be- | fore adjourning, the conference| heartily endorsed the Miners’ Solid- | arity Fair of August 5th, to be held at Pleayant Bay Park. Thousands} of workers are expected to attend | this affair as evidence of their! solidarity with the striking miners. | MINORS DENIED — | | rere a NEESER IETS SANE WPEN pn ALBANY, N.

Forced to Risk Life. About two months ago when my ship was en route to Hawaii for battle-practice we were going full speed in formation off the West Coast of Mexico.

Unless his unpaid rent is raised somehow, the Calamaris and their four little children will find themselves without a bed to sleep in, | or a roof over their heads Monday night. A complete inventory of the miner's “property” is listed on the warrant. A stove, table, chairs, cup- board, three beds and one hot plate are among the fourteen items of “property distrained.” Mine Leader. Calamari is a leading rank and file organizer in Washington County, recently elected to a union office by | | progressive miners. Calamari’s | | ruddy, smiling face is familiar in the mining camps through the valley, where he is constantly making the rounds in order to maintain the or- ganization and fight the open-shop. Calamari’s family is living on the relief sent to Charleroi by the Na- tional Miners’ Relief Committee of |611 Penn Avenue, Pittsburgh, Pa. Money is a rarity in the strike camps. All of Calamari’s friends are in the same position that he is |in, so he cannot turn to them for help. This morning the miner: ap- pealed to the relief committee, But the funds the relief committee has must be used to buy flour and pota- toes for thousands of hungry famil- ies. The $40 which he requires must feed 40 families. Serious Plight. Charles Sanders, another progres- | sive leader of Curtisville, is in the same fix. His rent bill is $12. There is no room in the over-crowded bar- | racks for his wife and their six chil- dren. The only thing that can save | the miners is an immediate contribu- tion from sympathizers.
