In commenting on the mass meet- ing called by the Unity Co-opera- tive, Sigel said, “The co-operative movement, being part of the gen- eral labor movement, is opposed to the present profiteering system. The building of co-operatives under the present conditions, is a weapon of the working class, and helps the workers carry on the class struggle. This is why we urge all workers to support in masses the platform and candidates of the Workers (Communist) Party, the only party ‘of the class struggle in the coun- try.” The results of the Red Night held in Harlem large and enthusiastic demonstra- tion was held at the corner of 110th) St. and 5th Ave., have proven that Harlem workers are very much in- terested in the platform of class (Communist) Party, and the attend- ance at the meeting Friday night is expected to be laree. ‘ Al-| last week, at which aj} Continued from Page One | which is different from the old in \that it calls for a wage raise of five dollars a week, a second, and) just as significant, reason was to! organize as many non-union shops as possible.

The union showed lists of stores settled to the reporter, and it was from these lists that the to- jtals were obtained. Five settlement committees were touring Manhattan | and the Bronx, visiting employers who, being without clerks, called for the union representatives because they could not leave their business deserted. When reports of these! ‘committees are brought in, it is ex- pected that the list of union settled stores will have reached way be- |yond the three score mark. Most encouraging of all, however, is the fact that of these stores, a) large number have never had agree-| ments with the union.

FAKERS RULE AT Left Wing Nominees) Kept Off Ballot The right wing machine in the Cloth Hat and Capmakers Interna- |tional Union showed its true colors at meetings of Locals 3, 1 and 27, held Saturday and last night for the | purpose of nominating candidates for organizers. The practice of voting on nomin- ated candidates, instituted by the local officers about a year ago, has been repeatedly exposed by the left | |wing. Candidates who are nomin- ated for office are not placed on |the ballot, but a vote is taken on the nominees. | ballot, a method by which the’ right |wing fakers are able to terrorize the members into nominating their henchmen and keeping all progres- |sive candidates off the ballot. At the meeting of Local 3 on Sat- afternoon President Max tacks on the left wing. L. Cohen, a left wing worker, in reply, stated | ;something worse. He exposed the fake maneuvers of the right wing clique end pointed out that a year) |ago the left wing sent a letter to \the G. E. B., asking that the new [nomination policy be rescinded. Thus far the G. E. B. has found no jtime to take action on the letter, | Cohen said, declaring that the tac- ad| ics used by the machine to keep ad) the left wing off the ballot were even worse than those used by Tam- | | many Hall. The left wing refrained from vot- ing at the Local 3 meeting, declar- ing that its candidates, L. Cohen and H. Sazer, had been legally nomin- pted. At the Local 1 meeting Saturday evening only one speaker, H. Sazer, was permitted to present the left wing side, while four right wingers were given the floor. Sazer ex- posed the dirty tactics employed by the righ wing to keep itself in office ond challenged the reactionaries to appoint an impartial committee to linvestigate his statements. He peinted out that the right wing chiefs had failed to enforce the agreement with the bosscs and to care for the unemployed workers in the trade.

The convention marked a signifi- cant step forward in the further be- trayal of the thousands of Spanish workers who are being mercilessly |exploited by the capitalists and of | the hundreds who are now undergo- |ing the most terrible tortures in the |dungeons of De Rivera. It also marked another chapter in |the long history of betrayal of the | “socialist” Amsterdam International. |The Spanish federation is one of the most loyal sections of the Amster- dam international and its general secretary, Largo Caballero, is a member of the general council of the reformist international. It was Ca- ballero who, when the minority dele- gates, who bitterly opposed ¢ollabor- ation, were threatening to influence even some of his own jandpicked delegates, arose and rallied his forces, who steamrollered thru the resolution endorsing further betray- al. Members of the federation’s ex- exutive committee will continue to hold seats in the National Council of State under Dictator de Rivera. Five hundred and ninety-one dele- gates were present at the convention, representing 141,310 members. All except a handful of the delegates were elected by approved machine methods. The convention was the first regular gathering of the federa- tion since the dictatorship was set up in September, 1923, and it made obvious efforts to ingratiate itself with the fascist regime. HOOVER PLEDGES ~ IMPERIALIST AID _Assures Wall Street It Will Be Protected Continued from Page One Street finance capitalist masters, in the strongest language yet uttered by him, that he would do their bid- ding. Whose Prosperity? “The increase in wealth and pros- perity in the United States has come since the war,” Hooyer declared in obvious distortion of the fact that |prosperity for the ruling class has been a growing phenomena since the _civil war and particularly since the opening of the century. Speaking of the enormous increase in production which has taken place ;since the war, Hoover repeated again the falsification he enunciated jat Newark that “much of this in- jerease of production has been ab- |sorbed in higher standards of liv- \ing.” He then touched upon the great problem facing the govern- ment to get+rid of the enormous |surplus profits in the form of ex- _cess goods. ‘We must find a prof \able market for these surpluses,” | he said. At this point he gave in some +detail the methods through which \the department of commerce headed | by himself had “assisted exporters in finding markets.” In even greater | detail he described how the great imperialist government at Washing- |ton “had used its influence against foreign raw goods combines.” “The lives and property of our citizens abroad shall bey protected,” |he threatened. “But this is not im- | perialism,” he insisted, Admitting that in at least four oceasions, the republican adminis- | tration had resorted to armed inter- vention to insure the profits of the \big foreign investors, he argued | that the previous democratic admin- istration had done so nine times. From this he sought to argue that the U. government was becoming less imperialistic evading the obvious fact that the basis for the imperial- _ ist invasions had already been laid by previous administrations, hence the-fewer ease of new attacks, Economic Council of USSR Vice-President Here for Purchases For the purpose of buying large supplies of tractors, agricultural im- plements and factory machinery, S.
