Mill Man MOVE MADE OVER PROTEST OF THE RANK AND FILE Fabrics Tariff Rate I Raised BRADFORD, England, Jan. 25.—| The association of textile manufac- turers, here yesterday made public | their intention of insisting on their demand for a general and wide- spread wage reduction, This was done after the reaction- ary officialdom of the national or- ganization of unions composing the | textile trades, had advanced to the} employers the timid “suggestion” | that the employers withdraw the demand pending conferences with the Joint Industrial Council, 1 body of union officials. | Thru the use of mere suggestions, | tke officialdom in control cf the} workers organizations hope to} counteract the vicious attack on| workers’ standards which the mill owners are preparing. The masses of the rank and file of the textile unions are especially; bitter in view of the fact that the union officialdom recently came out with a public endorsement of the} employers demands that tariff rates for the fabrics manufactured, be} raised, | This reactionary step—of a high) tariff endorsement—was put over | recently over the protests of the} rank and file. The union official-| dom at that time told the workers} helping their bosses get a high pro- vision, their own working standards | would thus be safeguarded. The} 1 Hope wage reduction announcements made | by the mill owners yesterday, is the) answer to that contention of the) leadership. | In rallying the masses of union| membership for a struggle against | the administration, the left wing} movement, which has a mass follow-| ing, points to the way in which us| bosses played the cat and mouse | game with the unions. | During all the time the official union endorsement of their tariff) requests was still obscured by an element of doubt for the opposition | to this move was persistant and strong, the bosses refrained from saying anything definite about their | wage reduction intentions. How- ever the moment the tariff sanction} was publicy secured from the union | heads, they made no bones about! their demands for a widespread! wage cut. | The masses of textile workers will! undoubtedly fight the wage reduc-| tions and fight both their misleaders | and the bosses. | ABANDON SEARCH | Ig Given Up for! Teesbridge There is still no record of the Bri-| tish freighter Teesbridge, which sent) in an S. O. S. call day before yes- terday, that it was in danger from the storm in the North Atlantic, and| , | then became silent. | The freighter Maine, of the At- lantie Transport Line, which had been going to her rescue, was un- able to find her or get an answer to her messages, and gave up the} search, Crew Left To Perish. It is taken for granted by marine workers here that the whole crew of 38 men have been drowned or will soon die. If by any chance a small boat rode out the storm, the owners of ships going to the rescue, have lost interest. Since no pas- sengers are involved, no ship owner cares whether the crew live or not. The Teesbridge seems to have gone down about 400 miles off Halifax. Ship Short Handed. The Dannedaike, an American oil tanker which sailed short handed. tho thousands of seamen want jobs, is in distress 700 miles off shore, with rescue ships nearing her. She has a crew of 32 men and should have carried s crew of 44, THE KRASSIN Maurice Parijanine aE WHAT HAPPENED TO MALMGREN?
