THE DAILY WORKER, NEW YORK, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 29, 1928 Page Five Scott Nearing Will Tour Throughout New Jersey pai edad Bae Ee CANDIDATE WILL EXPOSE ROLE OF WALL ST. TWINS Will Tour Many Cities) | | | Thruout State Scott Nearing, Communist candi- date for Governor of New Jersey, began on Sunday a tour of the cities | of the state. The first meeting was held at the old Y. M. H. A. Hall, at the corner of Smith and McLellan Sts., Perth Amboy. Other meetings will be held in Jersey City, New- @tk, Passaic, Bayonne, Elizabeth and Paterson. Much interest has been awakened | among New Jersey workers in Near- | ing’s tour by the leaflet distributed by the Workers (Communist) Party | challengingly headed “Who Rules New Jersey?” The campaign | speeches of the Communist candi- date for governor will expose fully the Wall Street control of both ma- jor capitalist candidates, Smith and | Hoover, will bring to light the full | graft and sordid corruption which is rife in New Jersey, and will con- clusively prove the domination of state government in New Jersey by |, powerful corporations. The workers of New Jersey are not the only ones to be stirred to interest by the tour of the Commv- | nist candidate. The graft and cor- ruption prevalent in that state is so widespread and involves so many high lights in the councils of both | capitalist parties that there is much | quaking in the beots which tramp capitalist political circles. An ineident which occurred in Perth Amboy is illustrative of the interest awakened in the masses of New Jersey workers by the impend- ing tour of the Communist candi- date. A fisherman walked into the headquarters of the Party in Perth Amboy. “Look here,” he exclaimed indignantly, “while your candidate is exposing all of the graft of the pol'ticians, let him expose the poor‘ sewage system. It’s so bad now that | most of the fish we catch here are | poisoned by sewage.” Tha full list of meetings and where held ‘: as follows: Sunday, Aug. 26, | Perth Amboy, Smith, corner Me- Lellen Sts..

FIZZLE "IN PHILADELPHIA Survey Reveals Not a Shop on Strike Continued from Page One Board were bombarding the in- dustry with blaring statements to the socialist and employers press, to the effect that a special committee will be appointed “which will once and for all time organive the open shop market of Philadelphia.” After arp scramble between Becker- man and Blumberg for the position of chief “disburser” of the funds al- loted by the general office, Blum- berg was finally picked to “handle”. the purse strings. This was more than a month ago, Blumberg, appointee at the helm of the fake drive, still occupies an elaborate suite of rooms which be- gan as the organizer’s offices and now is occupied solely by Mr. Blum- berg, to be shared occasionally by a Mr. Weinstein his satellite ac- cording to information obtained from attendants of the Sylvania Hotel. as Demands Ignored. Continual demands raised by the left wing in the local organization, that the workers be called to mass meeting to begin a mass movement to organize the shops, and that the Philadelphia local be permitted some control in the conduct of the strike, were met with threats of reprisals from the officialdom of the national office. | Only three shops were called out on strike, the inquiry proves, and | even these three strikes were aban- doned after a short tussle of a few days with the employers.

Bosses were offered “coopera- | tion” and were tempted with more | profits thru “more efficient produc- tion.” When the offer of even these |tempting morsels were met with a stony silence from the employers, the “special committee” repaired it- self to the Sylvania Hotel where it will no doubt remain till they de- flate the bulging bag. 400 Jewish Families to Colonize Siberia MOSCOW, Aug. 27.—Four hun- dred more Jewish families, which head the list of thousands who have applied for colonization, will be sent to the Bureya settlement in Eastern Siberia in October by the Soviet | Government, according to a report |in the Emes, the official Communist | Yiddish Daily, In spite of the recent flood and | the lack of modern tools, the Ozet— Jewish colonization organization, re- ports that the 28 cooperatives will overcome the inital difficulty in get- ting settled and will shortly turn in- to successful farming groups. in Wo All announcements for this column ravet reach The DAILY WORKER ral days before the event in ques- ion to make the announcement ef fective.
