Scheme of Wage Cutting. Wage cuts are not delivered at one stroke throughout the industry, but are made piecemeal, plant by plant and department by department. Thus the resentment of large groups of workers is not aroused simultane- ously. It is, therefore, no surprise that the workers in the automobile in- dustry are gradually beginning to |react. The most appropriate term |for which should be “department walkouts” accuring quite often in |the various plants in the automobile industry.

The National Miners Arrange- ments Committee instructed each district to hold organizational con- |ferences in every sub-district to | make final preparations for the elec- | tion of delegates and affiliation.

To knit together the Indiana for- |ees for the new union, conferences jare being held in Clinton, Bicknell |and Blandsford. Where locals have fallen to pieces, they will be reor- ganized and elect their delegates; where there is no organization, the militants are on the job to organize} every mine, and elect delegates.

Five persons, four of them mem- bers of one family, were electro- ctited here last night when they came in contact with a power line blown to the ground'during a heavy wind and rain storm. Sereams of Richard Miller, the first to touch the wire, brought his wife and son, Eugene, both of whom died while attempting to free him. A second son, Wesley, and a neigh- bor, Carl Weeks, were killed while trying to rescue the three already tems to carry off these dusts, fumes and the spray gun menaces to which the workers are exposed to all day | long. In addition to these-facts com- piled by the Workers Health Buro |of America, March 1927, we want to |point out the few things prevalent in the industry. The Ford Motor Company which is directed by such a “humane” personality as Mr. Ford, the company only allows 15 minutes for lunch for those working 8 hours. In these 15 minutes the worker must stay in line and get his food, eat the lunch. There is cer- tainly no time left for anyone ,to wash up. The other automobile con- cerns are no better in this respect. In the factories of Flint, Michigan, there are no adequate sanitary facil- ities, no wash rooms or separate rooms away from the fumes and dust. The workers are compelled to eat their lunch with their dirty hands, and all the poisonous gases and all the poisonous materials which are used in handling the material is actually being transmitted into the bodies of the workers. No Wash Rooms. The most striking example of the conditions of the workers in the au- tomobile industry is that’ many the workers in Flint, Michigan, in- cluding the women, walk with their overalls from their homes to the ain eh ¥ MY truck drivers, crane operators, and several classes of machine operators. In certain factories a rate of 40 to 45 cents is paid to beginners in some of these classes and to work- ers in various other grades. Profits. According to the report of the Wall Street Journal of June 1928, five companies’ in the automobile industry: General Motors, Chrysler, Hudson, Studebaker, Packard, have increased their net income 250 per cent in 3 years. The profits in these concerns were in 1926, $299,481,000, in 1927, $314,- 977,000 of which the General Motors alone made a net income available for dividends $235,104,826. However, the wages of the work- ers are gradually going down. Ac- cording to the figures of the Na- tional Automobile Chamber of Com- merce, the averages yearly earnings of all those employed in the industry is now about $1800 a year which is $200 less than the average for 1920. The wages of the masses of work- ers excluding executives and super- visors staff, included in the general average range from about $20 to $36 during the week of 50 hours. Since the Federal Labor Depart- ment investigated wages in the in- dustry in-1925, finding that the average full time weekly wage for women was $23 “ for men $36, the pave tie money can be raised to provide for these immediate costs. The com- mittee has made an urgent appeal to butions to Room 411, 119 Federal St. Pittsburgh, N. S. LABOR ATTORNEY BACK FROM USSR LAUDS NEW LIFE \Tells of the “Land of | Vitality” | Continued from Page One visitor to the Soviet Union gets,” Brodsky said yesterday, “is the enormous vitahty of the nation. | Building is brisk, factories are being enlarged; there is great activity everywhere.” The workers and peasants of the Soviet Union, he sa‘d, are utterly jconvinced of the inevitability of a | joint imperialist attack upon their | country. “They are determined to vesist This attack,” Brodskyreported, |“and are confident that in the event of war the world proletariat will jstand by them.” | “The country belongs to the work- | jers,” said Brodsky. “Of this fact they are profoundly convinced. A | visit to the opera house, to the va-| |eation places, rest homes and the- jutres dramatizes this fact. Every- |where are workers.” | Tens of thousands of workers visit |the museums each day, Brodsky re- jports. “Interpreters and guides are provided and the way of the visitor is facilitated to the greatest ex- tent.” | Complete refutal of the slander- «us propaganda in capitalist coun- tries that the Soviet government has |despoiled its art treasures is found, | Brodsky stated, in the fact that all ‘the art galleries, museums, parks \and public buildifigs have been pre- |served for the use of the workers jand peasants. Stability. That the Soviet government is stable and will cndure is attested to |not only by the enthusiasm of the |millions of workers and peasants | who are prepared to die to defend it |against the world imperialists, but lalso by the “despairing attitude of |many of the former members of the bourgeoisie, some of whom include Nepmen.” The Soviet Union is dedicated to tne service of the youth, the lator attorney said. “All energies are bent to their development as citi- | zens of the workers’ and peasants* public.” The schools, universities, clubs, the sport unions—all are sat- vrated with the enthusiasm and vitality which is characteristic of the new social order, he said. The legal system of the Soviet Union differs from the legal sys- |tem of the United States and other capitalist countries as night does |from day, Brodsky said. “The dis- | tinguishing characteristic of the So- viet jurisprudence is its lack of for- mality. Every case is decided on its individual merits and not on pre- cedents and citations founded on | medieval law. There are no loop- holes through wl cunning law-} |yers, hired by wealthy and powerful corporations, can take advantage of,” he reported. | Law for Workers. Obscure Latin terms and involved |pleading and procedure, which in \eapitalist countries are used to con- |fuse the poor client, does not exist in Soviet jurisprudence. ‘“Neverthe- | \less,” Brodsky said, “the odifica- | tion of the Soviet ‘law is being ac- |complished gradually.” | All courts have three members, | | Brodsky said, one being the chief magistrate, who may be but is not | necessarily a lawyer, and two work- | ers, These workers are sent by) various unions, and there is a sys-| |tem of rotation.

Besides organizing the young workers in sports clubs as is done in the Soviet Union, Germany, and} other countries of Europe, the Labor Sports Union has the additional pur- pose of offsetting the propaganda spread by the various bosses’ or- ganizations such as the American Athletic Union and the Y.

The workers must strive to secure a hegemony with the peasants in these revoluticns. Decolonization False. Martinov declared that the de- colonization theory was false. The capital export from the imperialist motherlands to the colonies, he was aimed at exploiting the stuff sources and not at develop native industry. The essential fac- tor in the imperialist colonial pol- icy, he continued, was not predatory exploitation of cheap colo labor power, but undermining the basis for the development of native in- dustry. The bourgeois democratic revolutions, he concluded, must regarded as revolutionary factors. Thirty-fifth Session. At the thirty-fifth session in the afternoon the following spoke: Ab- erderame, Algeria; Vassilyev, of the Soviet Union; Germanetto, for the Red International of Labor Unions; Cox, of Britain; Lu Hai-cho, of aid, | China; Martinez, of Venezuela; Mus- taphe, of Tunis; Ibarola, of Para- guay. Colonial Parties. Vassilyev declared that the chief | attention of the Communist Interna- tional n must be directed towards China, India, Egypt and Latin- America. The chief task, he said, was to strengthen the existing Com- munist Parties, of forming new ones where necessary. The weakness of the Communist Parties in some colo- nies leads to the tendencies to form mass workers’ and peasants’ parties outside of the Communist Party. Clarity must be created in the colo- nies concerning the role of the Com- munist Party, he said. No Com- munist Party exists in India, he con- tinued, but four workers’ and pea- sants’ parties do exist which are de- veloping into a united party. The Communists work in these parties, he said, but have no fraction. The chief task in India, therefore, is to form a Communist Party from the various Communist groups and to form fractions in all workers’ and peasants’ organizations. The chief task in Egypt, Vassilyev continued, is to strengthen Party, to organize fractions in the trade unions and other mass organ- | izations, to expose the Wafd and win the peasants and workers away from the Wafd. The ground for Communism in Latin- America is good, he said, and there- fore we must not form workers’ and peasants’ parties, but Communist Parties, or strengthen the existing parties, be | the Communist | “Peace” Pact With Talk of Peace Prepare for War LAND BARONS IN- NIGARAGUA TO HELP MARINES Land Owners in Move Against Sandino MANAGUA, ragua, Aug. 22. —Vigilance committees in the State of Neuva Segovia have been organ- ized by si landowners and mine- owhers to help the United States marines in their fight against the Sandino Army of Independence, and to help the marine: patroling the towns when the elections take place. This action on the part of the landowners and mineowners is an attempt to prevent the nationaliza- tion of their land and property by General Sandino, who has proclaimed his own government in the Depart- ment of Neuva Segovia. The nationalization of large estates and mines has provided the Sandino government with provisions nd gold for the manufacture of money. The committee of vigilant has its counterpart in the vigilantes used by large companies throughout South America, composed mostly of imported from the United | States, to prevent the organization of militant unions. Simultaneously the United States election board has announced its ap- |proval of Moncada. the liberal can- didate, for the presidency, and Gen- jeral McCoy, the election supervisor, |has expre i lis approval of the |formation of the vigilantes to help him in supervising the elections, EXPLAINS U.

Must Expose Reformists. Martinez declared that the grow- ing activity of the workers’ move- ment in Latin-America produced in- creasing aggressiveness of Ameri- can imperialism. United States re- formism is also striving to penetrate into the Latin-American workers’ movement, he said, and the Latin- American bourgeoisie is inclined to make an agreement with the im- |perialists. The reformists, he con- | tinued, are striving to win the move- |ment with the help of the Pan- | American Federation of Labor. The |Communist Parties must expose | their own bourgeois reformists and United States imperialists, he con- | cluded. | At the continuation of the thirty- sixth session on August 18 the dis- |cussion proceeded.
