Letters of solidarity came today rom the National Confederation of abor of Cuba, despite Machado’s eign of terror. “We received all our correspondence and material t brutality which the ‘tools of lealing with fa: has been executed by the government power,” the letter stated. “This injustice has aroused the proletariat usness of the whole world. We join our protest against capitalist injustice in Gas- tonia and the criminal attempts of the textile industrial bosses who are trying to drown in blood the protest movement of the textile vorkers.” Appeal for Accord. The letter also protested “against the manifest intention of the bour- geoise which is trying to make a econd Sace ing to th Salvatore Accorsi case.

(Continued from Page One) which is sed N.TW:U,s, plans were made for further ea zation of the Southern textile work- for renewed struggle. Leib, hinsky and Siskind reported on Paterson, which, from all indications is to be the scene of the next big struggle in the Northern textile in- ry. After thorough discussion, decisions were made for sending ad- ditional forces into Paterson for building mill committees, especially in the dye works, for setting up ac- tion committees in the mills, and for preparing a general strike in answer to the speed-up and wage-cutting campaign of the manufacturers aid- ed by the Musteites, Plan Work. Exhaustive analy militant action were similarly made for the New England and Penn vania districts, especially New Bed- ford, where the N.T.W.U. is leading a new wave of rising struggle. Ad- and plans of ditional organizers were sent into Philadelphia, Lehigh Valley and Rhode Island. : Fight Fakers. | The Council found that in the resent severe crisis of the textile | industry, with the workers every- where launching militant struggies |for better conditions, and rally to the revolutionary class struggle pro- gram of the National Textile Work- ers’ Union, the capitalists are using the United Textile Workers and its Musteite wing against the workers in order to put over their rational- ization and wage cutting schemes, and in a desperate attempt to stem the ing tide of struggle. This is especially so in the South, and in Paterson, Scranton, and Easton where the workers have already be- gun to fight. The Council took steps to sharpen the fight against the United Textile Workers everywhere and to bring the decisive masses of textile work- ers into the ranks of the N.T.W.U. Vigorous measures were also taken against the right wing danger in the | |N.T.W.U. and against all manifesta- | o1 tions of bureaucracy, pessimism, and passivity. Broad Campaign. The Council developed a wide plan of campaign that will sweep the white and black masses of textile | workers in the U.

Letters addressed to the Interna- tional Labor Deferise were taken from Morgan. One of these was a request for assistance in defending two other League organizers, Victor Aronson and William J. Davis, ar- rested Monday for distributing leaf lets and Marine Workers Voices near the cotton mills. The charge against all four is that of “advocating the destruction of the U. S. government,” and they are en- tered on the police blotter as “dan- gerous and suspicious characters.’ Coming on the heels of the police taid on the San Pedro office of the M.W.L., where literature was also seized by the police, this New Or- leans affair indicates a general at- tempt on the part of the employers to suppress by all means possible the |organization of the marine workers. | New Orleans has over 170,000 Ne- gro population, many Negroes work- ing for as low as 80 cents per hour, . the docks.
